Foreign media’s obsession with India is not new. They always portray India in a negative light and leave no stone unturned to malign India’s image with their lies and propaganda at a global level. New York times ridiculed India’s stand at the Paris Climate Summit where India asked developed countries to make deeper emission cuts. Earlier also, New York times published an offensive cartoon making fun of India’s success in its very first Mars Mission.
Not just American media, Australian media is also notorious for its anti-India rant. India has been a proponent of renewable sources of energy as it helps to reduce the amount of greenhouse emission and thus significantly helps in reducing global warming. But, Australian media was quick to make fun of India’s novel initiative, they made a distasteful cartoon depicting Indian’s trying to eat solar panels.
Just few days earlier, Reuters was in news for its anti-India propaganda. It released a fraudulent survey claiming that India is the world’s most dangerous country for women. Later, Reuters received huge flak on social media for its fraudulent survey not just from India but also from many other countries. Social Media pointed out hollowness of Reuters survey with facts. The so called “expert” panel consisted of just 550 members who gave their opinions in the survey, the number of Indian or Indian origin women in the survey was less than ten percent. “Experts” who have sat throughout their lives in air-conditioned offices and lapped up propaganda preached by Leftist cabal around the world, gave opinions on how India is the least safe country for women. According to the survey the world’s most dangerous countries in descending order are- India, Afghanistan, Syria, Somalia, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Democratic Republic of Congo, Yemen, Nigeria and finally United States. There is no 11th country on the list and that is probably because of one reason, the “expert” panel had to give their “opinions” which were formed after reading news on these 10 countries only. The already small sample size of “experts” had just 10 options to choose from, India was put on the list to meet their ends. It was also surprising how countries like Germany and Sweden from the European Union failed to make it to the list despite staggering number of rapes and molestation committed on women by the hordes of illegal immigrants.
After receiving so much flak on social media for its fraudulent survey, Reuters have shamed themselves again. This time, in a subtle manner they tried to give a Nazi undertone to the Hindu religion. Yesterday, Reuters tweeted that they have removed a picture of US envoy Nikki Haley next to swastika, claiming it resembles the Nazi symbol and they should have never posted it.
Reuters has removed an earlier photo of U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley with a swastika seen behind her at a Hindu temple in Delhi. The swastika is an ancient religious symbol for Hindus and Buddhists. It was also used as a symbol by Nazi Germany https://t.co/rQa4VcIOdy pic.twitter.com/rJTUjd8C4f

This is the height of stupidity and more than that it’s nothing but Hindu-phobia. There is a massive between the Hindu Swastika and the Nazi symbol. Hindu Swastika moves clockwise and stands for faith, devotion and symbolizes prosperity and well being, whereas the Nazi symbol which is known as Hakenkreuz moves counter clockwise, have negative connotation and stands for hatred.
Completely misleading & malicious to say that Nazi Hakenkreuz & Hindu Swastika are d same-Hindu Swastika moves clockwise & symbolises the Sun☀️-i.e.Prosperity & Well Being-Whereas Nazi Symbol is counter clockwise & has negative connotations-pl delete 👆tweet #GetYourFactsRight pic.twitter.com/cvdhbGyqO5

So it is the fault of the Hindus that their 5000 year old symbol of “the cycle of life” was stolen by a German hate-cult 80 years ago.
Thanks for perpetuating the colonial narratives

For a better understanding of what the 5000 years old symbol of #Swastika means to Hindus and Dharmic schools derived from Hindu Dharma around the world, please see the it's role in broadly defining the interconnected and cyclic nature of Purusharthas. pic.twitter.com/37xvGS5yi1

In the age of social media it takes people just few minutes to expose the agenda of anti-Hindu media. As we can see in the above mentioned tweets, it is very clear that whatever Reuters did was a clear propaganda to defame Hinduism but again their hatred against Hinduism stands exposed today.
