Abstract

The article, authored by Vir Sanghvi and published in ThePrint on December 26, 2024, critiques the narrative of Hindu victimhood and ‘Hinduphobia’ as politically motivated constructs lacking substantial basis. Sanghvi argues that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s diplomatic engagements with Middle Eastern countries, despite his image as a ‘Hindu Hriday Samrat’, indicate a pragmatic approach that does not align with the rhetoric of Hindu oppression. The piece suggests that the notion of Hindu victimhood was propagated in the 1980s for electoral gains and questions its relevance in contemporary politics.
