The time has come for all those dedicated to Hinduism and the idea of a Hindu nation to unite and take the following steps. Our collective effort is the only way to safeguard ourselves. Otherwise, if the current state of affairs continues, opposition parties and anti-Hindu forces will continue to suppress us. Ultimately, through their unity and coordinated efforts, they may succeed in turning this country into a Muslim nation, and we may face the same fate that Hindus have faced in Pakistan and Bangladesh. Therefore, your collective support is crucial.
Expanding Membership Nationally: Our first and most important step is to expand the membership base at the national level. We must bring together those who agree with our objectives and are spread across the country. Existing members must be encouraged to spread the message of the National Hindu Board within their personal contacts, local groups, and communities. Every member should become an active representative of the organization so that our ideas and objectives reach every corner of India. For this, we will maximize the use of social media and other digital platforms and organize workshops, conferences, and public meetings to extend our reach to the grassroots level. Our aim is to create a strong and organized national network dedicated to protecting Hindutva, nationalism, and India’s democratic values.
Active Collaboration with the Media: Gaining media support is crucial for political and social awareness today. We must establish relationships with major media houses, editors, journalists, and digital channels to broadcast our message widely. It is essential to ensure that our issues are presented accurately and the challenges faced by Hindus are clearly communicated to the public. Active dialogue with the media will enhance the credibility of the National Hindu Board and garner wider national support for our campaigns. We need to reach the general public through leading newspapers, television channels, and social media platforms with our perspectives and policies.
Collaboration with Like-Minded Organizations: Many organizations and activists across the country are working to protect Hindu interests, but they are fragmented. The National Hindu Board aims to unite them on a shared platform. We need to form a strong alliance by connecting with like-minded organizations and individuals. To this end, we will bring together 20-30 or more dedicated groups and individuals to work under one umbrella. This collective effort will make our mission more effective and far-reaching. When there is unity among Hindu organizations, we will be able to protect our community’s interests and achieve our goals.
Gaining Support from Hindu Religious Leaders and Saints: Religious leaders, saints, and preachers hold special influence in society. We must engage with key religious figures and spiritual gurus of Hinduism and make them part of our movement. We must encourage them to help organize and raise awareness within the Hindu community. Additionally, they should inspire more than 90% of Hindus to unite and vote in support of pro-Hindu, pro-nationalist groups like the BJP/NDA. It is crucial to ensure that the Hindu vote is not divided and that it is cast in the right direction for the development of the nation and the protection of the religion. Currently, Muslim voters are organized in favor of the opposition, and we must similarly organize the Hindu society.
Economic Boycott Strategy: To maintain the security and economic power of our community, it is essential to boycott businesses influenced by jihadist ideologies. Many Muslim businesses dominate the retail and service sectors. By not using their products and services, we can reduce their economic power. Even if we have to spend a little more, this is a small sacrifice for the protection of our existence and religion. According to media reports, some radical elements deliberately use unsanitary and harmful materials, which can harm Hindus. In such a situation, an economic boycott can be an effective measure.
Vigilance Against Jihadi Strategies: A key aspect of protection against jihadi forces is vigilance. We must understand the plans adopted by jihadi ideology and be prepared to counter them. Islamic extremists are using tactics like polygamy, illegal migration, and love jihad to increase their population and influence. This is being seen not only in India but across the world. We must remain vigilant to address this situation and keep our community organized and secure.
Preparedness for Self-Defense: Self-defense is essential for the safety of the Hindu community. Every Hindu family must be empowered not only spiritually but also physically. We must be proficient in both “Shastra” (scriptures/knowledge) and “Shastra” (weapons). History has taught us that only the strong survive in times of crisis. We must be prepared for self-defense to face any type of violence or emergency situation.
Full Support to the Modi Government: Prime Minister Modi and his team are fully dedicated to the future of India and the Hindu community. If the Hindu community does not give its full support to the Modi government at this time, the opposition and Muslim extremists may succeed in destabilizing India. Now is the time for us to unite in defense of our religion and the future of our nation, and offer our full support to the BJP/NDA government.
Conclusion: The time demands that we unite and take steps now to protect our religion, nation, and future. Swami Vivekananda said, “Arise, awake, and stop not till the goal is reached.” We must act with this same spirit. Only through our collective efforts will we be able to protect Hindutva and India.
Jai Hind! Jai Bharat!
Here are relevant examples and case studies that illustrate the importance of Hindu unity, organizational efforts, and community defense:
- The Organizational Strength of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS):
The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) is an organization that has been working to unite and empower the Hindu society. Since its establishment in 1925, the RSS has played a significant role in connecting different sections of Hindu society and forming a strong front. Millions of RSS volunteers are spread across villages and cities in the country. The strength of the RSS lies in its grassroots activities, where volunteers organize social, religious, and cultural programs that have made Hindu society more aware and united.
Example:
The 1992 Ram Janmabhoomi Movement, which united the Hindu society at the national level and eventually led to the construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya after the Supreme Court’s verdict.
RSS’s relief work during natural disasters, which has enhanced its positive image in society and strengthened its role in the Hindu community.
- Impact of Hindu Unity in the 2014 and 2019 General Elections:
The unified voting by Hindus in the 2014 and 2019 general elections helped BJP secure a majority. Under Narendra Modi’s leadership, BJP portrayed itself as a protector of Hindu society’s security, development, and pride. The organized Hindu vote was a major reason for the defeat of opposition parties, as the Muslim vote had been consolidated in favor of the opposition.
Example:
BJP’s victory in 2014 and 2019 sent a clear message to opposition parties that if the Hindu electorate unites, they can decisively influence election outcomes.
- Appeals for Unity by Hindu Religious Leaders:
Sadhus, saints, and religious leaders hold a special place in society, and their words have a significant impact. Several religious leaders have repeatedly called for unity among Hindus to protect their faith.
Example:
Saints like Shankaracharya Swami Swaroopanand Saraswati have urged the Hindu community to stay alert and active, especially during movements like the Ram Temple campaign.
Sadhvi Ritambhara and Yogi Adityanath have also emphasized Hindu unity through their speeches and events, mobilizing the Hindu community.
- Sabarimala Temple Movement in Kerala (2018):
After the Supreme Court’s decision regarding women’s entry into the Sabarimala Temple, widespread protests were seen across Kerala. Hindu organizations united to oppose the verdict, with large-scale demonstrations involving religious and social organizations.
Case Study:
Millions of devotees and Hindu organizations participated in protests opposing the Supreme Court decision. This movement showed how the Hindu community can stand united for their religious traditions and beliefs.
Though the movement was not successful, it demonstrated that Hindu unity on religious issues cannot be ignored.
- Persecution of Hindus in Bangladesh and Pakistan:
The atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh and Pakistan serve as a warning for Hindus in India. The Hindu population in both countries is continuously declining, and they are often subjected to forced conversions, abductions, and violence.
Case Study:
In Pakistan, several Hindu girls like Rinku Kumari have been forcibly converted and married to Muslim men. These incidents show the serious plight of Hindus in these countries.
In Bangladesh, during the 2021 Durga Puja, Hindu temples were attacked, and violence against the Hindu community ensued. These incidents signal a severe threat to Hindus, and it becomes vital for the Hindu community in India to stay united to protect their faith.
- Social Harmony After the Gujarat Riots:
After the Gujarat riots, there was tension between the Hindu and Muslim communities, but the state government and Hindu organizations worked together to maintain peace and harmony. This resulted in a phase of development and social cohesion in the state.
Example:
Under Modi’s government, various development schemes were implemented, making Gujarat one of the leading states in the country. This effort restored a sense of security and confidence among Hindus, further strengthening Hindu unity.
- Impact of Economic Boycott:
In some regions, the Hindu community adopted the strategy of an economic boycott, where they chose to boycott businesses influenced by extremist ideologies and instead prioritized Hindu traders and businesses.
Case Study:
In several areas of Uttar Pradesh, Hindu organizations successfully boycotted businesses associated with jihadist ideologies. This put economic pressure on those businesses and benefited Hindu traders.
- Swami Vivekananda’s Ideal:
Swami Vivekananda called for the awakening of Hindu society and emphasized that an organized Hindu community is essential for the protection of its religion and nation. His speeches and ideas continue to inspire the Hindu society to become self-reliant and aware of its cultural and religious responsibilities.
Example:
Inspired by Vivekananda’s teachings, a large section of Hindu society today is engaged in efforts to revive and protect their religion and culture.
Conclusion: These examples and case studies clearly demonstrate that when the Hindu community unites and works in an organized manner, it can protect its religion, culture, and nation. The security, unity, and organization of the Hindu community are the need of the hour. We must come together to build a strong and organized Hindu society so that no threat can endanger our religion or our nation in the future.
