Rajiv Malhotra in this recent news clip once again claims he coined the term Hinduphobia when it’s well known it was already in use in the UK media even far back as the 1860s. Did he time travel in a DeLorean like in the movie Back To The Future and promoted the term to the UK journalists back then?
By making false claims he not only destroys his own credibility but also invites the Hinduphobes to bash down the genuine Hindu issues he does bring up as being made up.
In the clip further, he also shoots the Hindu cause in the foot down even more by claiming he got the idea of Hinduphobia from Islamophobia when in reality it’s the other way around.
So now again he’s given the Hinduphobes even more ammo to say ‘See he’s openly admitting he copied Hinduphobia from Islamaphobia’ which they have been saying from day one. He also makes it harder for many other Hindu activists trying to raise Hindu issues because then it all gets lumped into the same accusations of being false ..
Instead of working with other Hindus to work on a strategic plan jointly to then take on the enemy, we often see several Hindu experts suffering from the messiah complex all wanting personal glory and fame which ironically goes against the very Hinduism they claim to be defending.
Recent Update
Rajiv Malhotra again in a recent interview falsely claims he coined ‘Hinduphobia’ after seeing how the Islamophobia term is used for raising Muslim causes which then led him to come out with ‘Hinduphobia to raise Hindu issues.
So even though Hinduphobia is from the 1860s and was copied by Muslims later on giving the Hindus the upper hand historically, he ended up shooting the Hindu cause down by turning Hinduphobia into a recent term giving these far-right Christian fundamentalists like Audrey Truschke the ammo to attack Hindus with.
And when he does get caught out he then claims it was not in use for a 100 years and repopularised it but then also turns out as false.
