No. this is not a ‘Casteist’ or ‘Brahmin dominance/ Supremacy’ initiative. The inevitable consequence of Brahmin hate propaganda is Brahmin genocide, Hindu extinction, and eventual destruction of the Bharatiya civilisation.Brahmins just happen to be in the way and are being targeted first. Since civilisational knowledge transmission belongs to all communities,if Brahmin hate succeeds, all other communities will be targeted one by one until the civilisation is made extinct.

The reasons for the request for enactment of this act are detailed in the petition itself. From a Legal perspective, the arguments for enactment of this act are detailed in the book “ Brahmin Genocide- A Precursor to Hindu Extinction”. A few pages from the relevant chapter in the book are attached for ready reference.

Hate speech targeting Brahmins can be termed as Brahmophobia. Brahmophobia may be defined as hatred, fear, contempt, prejudice against Brahmins, their religious symbols, practices and beliefs. Such hatred or prejudice typically takes the form of maligning Brahmins in general, without providing any proof that Brahmins as a community are acting in a particular manner (or) blaming the Brahmin community for any acts of some individuals. Often, innuendos are propagated, suggesting individual actions as being approved or sanctioned by the entire Brahmin community.

When Brahmophobia manifests in public space, it can be described as “anti-Brahminism”. Anti-Brahminism may be defined as acts/beliefs which are in prejudice /discrimination against or hostility towards Brahmins.

Brahmophobia and anti-Brahminism are unique and dangerous, because they are often ignored by most democratic institutions and even supported by sections of mainstream media and civil society. For example, when it comes to incidents of terrorism, while condemning such incidents various democratic institutions, media, politicians and others emphasise that these are misguided individual acts and terrorism has no religion. However, exactly opposite views get peddled in the case of Brahmophobia. Even something not caused by or connected with Brahmins gets described as “Brahminism” or “Brahminical” and often Brahmins are criticised for it. Just as associating a religion with a terrorist act is called out as bigotry, associating a community with individual actions or negatively stereotyping the entire community should also be called out as bigotry. There cannot be different yardsticks to measure bigotry. Bigotry and hate speech in any form directed against any group, community or religion should be unequivocally condemned.

1. As shown in som example in the book “ Brahmin Genocide: A Precursor to Hindu Extinction:,, the union and some state Governments in many cases are choosing to remain as either passive supporters or silent non- actors when it comes to Brahmin hate. Hence, instead of the state taking it up, the burden has fallen on the community members to approach the Honourable courts for such hate speech issues.

2. The government itself has propagated racist theories either wittingly or unwittingly and the seeds of hatred which have been planted in young minds for many decades in the past have now grown to a giant tree. It might take at least a few decades to address the issues, undo the damages of the past and ensure that the future generations of Indians are growing up in a hate-free environment.

3. Brahmins constitute a tiny minority in the country. As shown in some examples, there are already open calls to polarise the rest of society against Brahmins. With the Government not taking the burden to confront such hate speech, it seems to have abdicated its constitutional responsibility.

4. As observed by Prof. Jeremy Waldron, the cost of hate speech are not evenly spread across the community.
“The costs of hate speech. . . are not spread evenly across the community that is supposed to tolerate them. The [racists] of the world may not harm the people who call for their toleration, but then few of them are depicted as animals in posters plastered around Leamington Spa [an English town]. We should speak to those who are depicted in this way, or those whose suffering or whose parents’ suffering is mocked by [the Skokie neo-Nazis], before we conclude that tolerating this sort of speech builds character.”

5. In the case of Dharmic Brahmins, they are easily identifiable with their traditional hair style, their religious symbols and markings, attire. and can be readily identified and targeted easily. In such instances of Brahmin hate, when the state often remains a mute spectator, it is often the poor and economically vulnerable members among the community who end up bearing the brunt of such hate.

6. Brahmin poverty is not an imaginary phenomenon. Below are some examples.
The Tamil newspaper article states that a poor Brahmin priest could not feed his own mother and she died out of starvation. Since he did not have money for performing final rites, he disposed of her mortal remains in a dust bin. When doctors did the post mortem, they found the gastro-intestinal tract was empty and felt sad. (it means there was no food in the stomach and the person died due to starvation).

7.Below is an excerpt from a news article on Brahmins in Bihar living in poverty.

“We are Brahmins in name only,” said Santosh Mishra, 50, sitting in the small bamboo hut he has built on the only little piece of land he owns. He is married with two sons and a daughter. The eldest, Ashwini, 16, has passed class 10. “I am trying my best to continue his education,” said Mishra, who couldn’t study after passing his intermediate.

“It would have been better if we had not been born Brahmin. At least, there would have been some help,” she added. “We can’t even beg because it would upset them (the affluent among the Brahmins).”

Interestingly, the mainstream media article includes below statement

“They are Brahmins. Poverty has taken everything away from them — except the attitude of the upper caste.”

Here, one must pause and reflect. What attitude can a Brahmin living in abject poverty and struggling without any Government help exhibit? This is the typical approach of many in the Indian media. In any story involving Brahmins, an angle has to be invented to blame the Brahmin. Even if it involves a Brahmin living in poverty without any Government assistance, an innuendo on their ‘attitude’ needs to be inserted.

Kashmiri Pandit genocide was sought to be white washed in similar manner, by blaming it on the Pandits (the real victims).

Below is data on the economic status of Brahmins living in Karnataka, during the 1970s.
“In this connection it would be revealing to quote the per capita income of various communities as stated by the Karnataka finance minister in the state assembly: Christians Rs 1,562, Vokkaligas Rs 914, Muslims Rs 794, Scheduled castes Rs 680, Scheduled Tribes Rs 577 and Brahmins Rs 537.”

As pointed out in earlier examples, the Union and State governments are often indifferent to Brahmophobia hate speeches. In Pravasi Bhalai Sangathan vs. Union of India,[2] the Honourable court observed thus:
“Therefore, the executive as well as civil society has to perform its role in enforcing the already existing legal regime. Effective regulation of “hate speeches” at all levels is required as the authors of such speeches can be booked under the existing penal law and all the law enforcing agencies must ensure that the existing law is not rendered a dead letter. Enforcement of the aforesaid provisions is required being in consonance with the proposition “salus reipublicae suprema lex” (safety of the state is the supreme law).”
Since the union and state governments are unwilling or unable to act on many instances of hate speeches targeted against Brahmins, the last recourse for the Brahmin community is the judiciary and hence, we can argue that there is an immediate need for a Brahmin Protection Law

Ignoring or avoiding Brahmophobia is not an option. Instead of ignoring or avoiding Brahmophobia, we must acknowledge and address it. Some may argue that if we start acknowledging and challenging Brahmophobia, the hate propagandist will receive more attention which in turn will fuel more Brahmin hate propaganda. Our response to such arguments is as follows:

For more than three generations, the Brahmin community has been ignoring Brahmin hate propaganda, and this propaganda has more or less remained unchallenged. Has it helped to reduce the Brahmin hate propaganda? Unfortunately, it has only become more vicious and louder. In fact, Brahmophobia is now a global phenomenon. If ignoring Brahmophobia for so many decades has not helped reduce it, how is it possible that in today’s scenario ignoring Brahmin hate will help in reducing it? Are we going to keep on hoping forever, until our children end up as genocide victims?

This is an important question but it conceals a ‘logical fallacy’. Such questions are based on the following assumptions.

• Brahmin hate propaganda is geographic and India specific
• Brahmin hate is only targeted at individuals who hold some values/exhibit certain behavioural characteristics (Example – being discriminatory, non-inclusive, not treating everyone as equals) and “not” against the entire Brahmin community.
• Brahmin hate is a cause and effect phenomenon and is not a part of a ‘Bharatiya civilisational annihilation’ objective.

  Anyone who makes a preliminary study on this topic will uncover that these assumptions are “not” valid. To elaborate,

• Brahmin hate propaganda is not geography specific. It targets Brahmins globally. One cannot run away from this truth. No matter how a person chooses to identify himself/herself, tries to blend in, hide the identity, the hate mongers will still target the person as a Brahmin.
• Brahmin hate targets the entire Brahmin community. In fact, there are many efforts to bind the word ‘Brahmin’ to elitism. A Recent example is usage of phrases like ‘Brahmin Left’, ‘Brahmin bailout’ in mainstream media with the objective of associating ‘privilege’, ‘elitism’ to the Brahmin community. This is a historic fraud as ‘privilege and elitism’ in most societies, especially in the west, was associated with aristocracy (the land owning, resource owning class). In those societies, the aristocracy and ruling class were even owning and trading in slaves. The Brahmin community never committed such atrocities and hence, this is an attempt to whitewash history and blame elitism on ‘Brahmins’.
• Historically, Brahmins were targeted due to their opposition to the colonial agenda of eradicating Sanatana Dharma and Bharatiya civilisation which was perceived as a ‘pagan’, ‘polytheistic’ and ‘satanic’ faith, Since Brahmins are the traditional custodians of the Bharatiya civilisational and Dharmic knowledge, Brahmin genocide is essential for eradication of Bharatiya civilisation. Once Brahmins are massacred and the knowledge systems and traditions are destroyed, similar hate templates will be used to target other communities one after another until the Bharatiya civilisation is annihilated.
  These hate propagandists have decimated many ancient civilisations over hundreds of years and have perfected their template. The only ancient civilisation which is still surviving their onslaught is the Bharatiya civilisation and these forces will not rest until Bharatiya civilisation is annihilated.

This question is incorrectly framed. You must pose the question to hate mongers, as to who gave them the authority to abuse the Brahmin community.

The Supreme Court has directed States to suo motu register FIRs on hate speech incidents and proceed against offenders without waiting for someone to lodge a complaint. So, why does Brahmin hate speech not get booked?

You are not answering the question.

Well. We have not claimed anywhere that we are exclusively representing Brahmins. Anyone in a democracy can raise issues which they are concerned about and seek redressal as per the constitutional norms.

This question is illogical. We are highlighting instances of Brahmin hate speech (Brahmophobia) and we are not indulging in any hate speech. Hence, why would other communities be offended?

Also, if you follow this logic, no community can raise issues of concerns, as it will then offend the sentiment of other communities. Such a logic is not accepted in a democracy. Each and every community is free to raise issues or concerns, as long as they follow the rule of law, raise their concerns politely and respectfully, without resorting to any hate speech against other communities.

I think we all can agree that hate speech against any community or individual must be condemned. There is no space for hate speech in a civilised society.

In the book “Brahmin Genocide: The Precursor to Hindu Extinction”, , we present evidence of the scope and scale of Brahmin hate propaganda, the national and international sources of such brahmin hate propaganda, the resources, time, and money invested in this hate propaganda. Given their minority population, Brahmins cannot fight this battle alone and hence, there is a need to create awareness about this hate propaganda to not just Brahmins, but other communities as well. Once the silent majority of our country becomes aware of this hate propaganda machinery, they will shun these propagandists.

Also, we must keep in mind that Brahmins are being targeted first, as they are at the edge of this civilization battle and have a major role in the protection and transmission of Bharatiya knowledge systems.

Our current focus is on creating awareness about hate speech targeting Brahmins ( Brahmophobia) and fighting hate speech. We are not focused on executive public policy making discussion and hence, will not be able to comment on them.

No. We do not believe in “Brahmin Supremacy”. We firmly believe that all human beings are equal and there should be no bias or discrimination due to caste, creed, or religion. We believe in the saying of Thirukkural, the great Tamil text :

பிறப்பொக்கும் எல்லா உயிர்க்கும் சிறப்பொவ்வா
செய்தொழில் வேற்றுமை யான்

Translation:
All lives are born equal, it is the actions of the individual which determine their special worth.

Research studies have demonstrated that on-line hate is often followed by physical, real-world violence.

One of the research studies we have shared in the book studied the link between social media and hate crime, drawing on hand-collected data from Facebook, the largest social media network in Germany. This research study investigated the relationship between anti-refugee sentiment on Facebook and hate crimes against refugees in Germany. The findings suggest that social media has not only become a fertile soil for the spread of hateful ideas but also motivates real-life action.

Facebook has said it agrees with a report that found it had failed to prevent its platform being used to ‘incite offline violence’ in Myanmar.] This is a real life example of how social media can be weaponised for inciting violence.

Historically, there is evidence of Brahmins being targeted and massacred by invaders. In Independent India, there is evidence of Brahmins massacred in Maharashtra after Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination.

Kashmiri Pandits Genocide happened just two decades back and manyPandits are living as refugees in front of our eyes. Describing a real situation cannot be termed as exaggeration. In some states, there are concerns expressed by some that 21st century Anti-Brahmin campaigns can turn violent.

There are instances of calls for violence against Brahmins in some states and genocide calls in social media, which are documented in the book “Brahmin Genocide: The Precursor to Hindu Extinction”.

However, what we have documented in the book is by no means exhaustive or comprehensive and there are many other instances which are not covered in this book. For example, during 2022, there was an issue involving a political party spokesperson talking about ‘Genocide’ against Brahmins.
