Australia: Shock, outrage as Hindu Temple attacked in Melbourne; 3rd this month

Locals Hindus have been anguished after a temple has been repeatedly attacked in the UK. Reports suggest that the statues outside the Shree Ram Mandir (also known as the Gujarati Hindu Social and Cultural Centre) have been vandalised multiple times in the month of June. The temple is located in Fort Road, Walsall about nine miles from Birmingham.

So how did the Western media get it so wrong about The Kerala Story? There are two reasons. First, the so-called liberal media in the West has a deep-rooted bias against Hindus. From the colonial era onwards, the country has been a metaphor for poverty, slums, violence, and chaos. Also, blaming Hindus while ignoring the crimes of other groups is the Western media’s default position. In January 1948, when Mohandas Gandhi was assassinated, the headline in the New York Times was “Gandhi Killed by A Hindu.”[11] Even when Indians achieve something spectacularly successful, the reaction in the West has been of snide condescension. For instance, in 2014, when India became the first nation to reach Mars in the first attempt, the New York Times published a cartoon showing an Indian farmer with a cow knocking on the door of the elite space club.[12]

Did you know that since Aug.5, 2024, news of the unrelenting attacks on Hindu minorities in Bangladesh have been subverted by the mainstream media? Why is there no news coverage on the treacherous killings of Hindus, the desecration of Hindu Mandirs (Hindu temples), land grabbing, mob attacks after false blasphemy charges, rapes/forced conversions, and the hate speeches?
