A Modi Win Will Only Mean More Trouble for Indian Muslims
If the BJP is able to secure a huge majority in the parliament, Hindu majoritarianism will remain unchecked. The hostility towards the minorities could escalate even more, and opposition parties may bear the brunt of state agencies and crackdowns if they ask questions.

The Nellie Massacre Remains All But Forgotten
How was this carnage reduced to an event that seems to hold little significance in the public memory today? The answer may lie at the nexus of questionable political decisions, an ineffective legal system, an indifferent media and the lack of political representation for Bengali Muslims in Assam.

Three times during Ramzan in 2023, provocation of Muslims in Mira-Bhayander failed to yield a riot. Helped along by Hindutva pop songs, Hindu nationalist influencers, godmen, disinformation on social media—and a virulent new avatar of the local BJP legislator—the carefully constructed powder keg of Mira Road only needed a spark.

‘There Is Nothing More Unconstitutional, Nothing More Cruel:’ Muslims Before Ram Temple Consecration
Lay low, stay indoors and avoid travel. These are some of the things Indian Muslims we spoke to said they would do, as the BJP and its supporters organise a nationwide celebration on 22 January, with widespread media coverage and State backing. But for most of India’s 200 million Muslims, the temple is still a site of loss and grief.

Today is the 6th anniversary of the Quebec City mosque murders.
Anti-Muslim hatred and violence continues across Canada and beyond.
Each of us must continue to speak out against Islamophobia and encourage dialogue and engagement among religious and ethnic communities. We need to model kindness, care, and understanding for our children, and work with them to confront ignorance, prejudice, and myths regarding Islam and Muslims.
