Editorial Viewpoints

The situation in the UK over the past several years reveals that Islamic fundamentalism has been on the rise, but the Government has no control over it. In Britain, which advises the world about human rights and religious freedom, the religious freedom and human rights of Hindus are being violated, it is a shame for the UK Government.
Muslims’ attempts to deliberately target Hindus are universal, as Hindus believe in Idol worship. Idol worship is considered inappropriate in Islam. So can such racists ever live in harmony with Hindus anywhere in the world ?
