The Indian Prime Minister was additionally greeted with chants of ‘Modi Modi’, ‘Bharat Mata ki Jai’ and ‘Vande Mataram.’ Following his speech, US lawmakers have been seen lining as much as work together with Narendra Modi.

During this time, he signed autographs and clicked selfies with members of the US Congress. PM Modi additionally autographed the joint session deal with booklet, offered to him by US House of Representatives Kevin McCarthy.

The State Visit by the Prime Minister of India has been massively profitable. With the condemnation of Pakistan’s cross-border terrorism by Joe Biden and PM Modi of their joint assertion, to an over $3 billion funding and historic, unprecedented deepening of ties by the foray of conferences between PM Modi and thought leaders within the West, India has walked away with huge good points. Of course, the USA is a transactional state and might by no means be a reliable ally, a truth of which the facility corridors are deeply conscious, however the diplomatic realm is definitely not made up of absolute and within the grey-coloured world of diplomacy, India walked away with web constructive outcomes.

Even earlier than the State Visit took off, nevertheless, American liberals and Islamists, together with the open and blatant assist by the Indian political class led by Rahul Gandhi, launched a marketing campaign to discredit PM Modi and by extension, India, united by their starvation for energy, hate for Hindus and disdain for India.

17 organisations and 75 Senators and Members of Congress wrote 2 letters to President Biden asking him both to not host the State Dinner or to lift some particular points. 

On June 7 (native time), Indian American Muslim Council (IAMC), which has hyperlinks to Islamic terrorist organisations, introduced to have written a letter to the President of the United States of America, Joe Biden, to rescind the invitation of State Dinner prolonged to Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi. Seventeen organisations, together with IAMC, signed the letter. 

The organisations claimed that India is going through sharp democratic backsliding. The declare was based mostly on April 20, 2023, Financial Times report titled ‘India’s Democratic Backsliding’. In the report, FT claimed the democratic values of India have been on backtrack as a result of a Gujarat courtroom denied disqualified Congress MP Rahul Gandhi‘s plea in opposition to a 2-year sentence in a defamation case. FT referred to as it dangerous information not just for India however for the entire world. In the letter, they cited 4 experiences linked to CAA and NRC. They included a truth sheet by United States Commission on International Religious Freedom from February 2020. However, the report clearly talked about that CAA was solely meant for minorities in neighbouring Islamic nations. The report does level out Assam NRC controversies, however assuming NRC, each time it comes, may have the identical laws and tips is far-fetched. OpIndia did an in depth evaluation of the baseless claims made by IAMC and different organisations within the letter despatched to President Biden that may be checked right here.

On June 20, 75 US Senators and Members of Congress wrote a letter to President Biden to take up points together with “shrinking of political area, the rise of spiritual intolerance, and extra.

OpIndia did a report the place we analysed 16 organisations and 24 lawmakers who undersigned the 2 letters and the findings have been surprising (although not stunning) – the organisations and lawmakers have hyperlinks with Islamic terror organisations, Khalistanis, anti-India and anti-Hindu components.

What was much more attention-grabbing, is the threads of join between Congress and the anti-Hindu, anti-India components which aimed to sabotage the State Visit.

Rahul Gandhi is on a 10-day USA tour, the place he spoke on the National Press Club, Stanford University and likewise, to ‘think tanks’, allegedly discussing relations between India and USA. The Hudson Institute tweeted photographs of Rahul Gandhi in deep dialog with these “think tanks”. Sunita Vishwanath was seated alongside Rahul Gandhi at this occasion at Hudson Institute. Sunita Vishwanath is the co-founder of HrHR, which has additionally signed this letter in opposition to Narendra Modi alongside IAMC.

Investigating Info-warfare and Psy-war OSINT Disinfo Lab had carried out an investigation revealing that the ‘Hindus for Human Rights (HfHR)’ had been selling the deceptive narrative of ‘Hindu Vs Hindutva’. The similar organisation was additionally seen endorsing the ‘Dismantling Global Hindutva’ occasion. 

As per Disinfo Lab, HfHR was fashioned within the 12 months 2019 by two Islamist advocacy teams named Indian American Muslim Council (IAMC) and the Organization for Minorities of India (OFMI). Interestingly, the three organisations had fashioned one other outfit referred to as the Alliance for Justice and Accountability (AJA).

As per an article in The Hindu, the Alliance for Justice and Accountability had been on the forefront of main demonstrations in opposition to the go to of PM Modi to Houston on September 22, 2019. According to Disinfo Lab, the co-founder of Hindus for Human Rights, Sunita Vishwanath, additionally runs an organisation named ‘Women for Afghan Women’, which is funded by the Soros Open Society Foundation. Earlier, OpIndia reported intimately how George Soros had been fuelling a harmful anti-India narrative by media and ‘civil society.’

HfHR’s founding member Raju additionally heads EKTA. It is an affiliate group of IAMC. The sole function was to have Hindus on the panel to challenge that the Hindus, basically, have been in opposition to Hindutva. Interestingly, HfHR ran Facebook advertisements to advertise earlier USCIRF experiences.

Interestingly, Sunita Vishwanath, the co-founder of HfHR, can be carefully linked to George Soros and Islamist-linked IAMC. The in-depth evaluation of the net could be learn right here.

Recently, HfHR launched a toolkit in opposition to PM Modi’s US go to. OpIndia’s detailed report on it may be seen right here.

Indian American Muslim Council (IAMC), a radical Islamist group that has alleged hyperlinks with banned terror organisations such because the Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) and has an extended historical past of lobbying in opposition to India.

The IAMC is a Jamat-e-Islami-backed lobbyist organisation claiming to be a rights advocacy group. In the previous, it had reportedly collaborated with and even paid cash to varied teams within the USA to get India blacklisted by the USCIRF (United States Commission on International Religious Freedom). An in depth report by Disinfo Lab has uncovered its hyperlinks with the phobia outfit Jamat-e-Islami.

IAMC founder Shaik Ubaid and member Abdul Malik Mujahid have headed the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA), the US entrance for Jamaat-e-Islami, Pakistan. According to DisInfo Lab, ICNA has established hyperlinks with Pakistan-based terror teams just like the Lashkar-e-Taiba. Rasheed Ahmed, who heads the IAMC at present, was the previous govt director of the Islamic Medical Association of North America (IMANA). IMANA’s Director of Operations is Zahid Mahmood, an ex-Pak Navy official.

Similar experiences lined by OpIndia on HfHR and Hamas-linked Islamist group CAIR could be learn right here and right here.

IAMC has, in truth, come out in assist of Rahul Gandhi a number of occasions and George Soros, with hyperlinks to HfHR and by extension, IAMC, had not solely devoted cash to fight nationalists together with PM Modi however waded into the Adani fiasco, supporting Rahul Gandhi’s premise that Modi must be held accountable for a legendary ‘scam’.

The sinister agenda to sabotage the State Visit of an Indian Prime minister grew to become much more obvious when Rahul Gandhi deliberate his go to proper earlier than that of PM Modi. During his go to, alongside along with his alliance with HfHR and IAMC, he maligned India whereas hailing anti-Hindu and Islamist organisations just like the Muslim League, calling them secular. Rahul Gandhi within the US had a number of talking engagements the place he definitely stirred the pot, most likely to the detriment of his personal occasion and political profession. His speech revolved across the ordinary themes – Hindus dangerous, Muslims god, Congress peaceable, ‘Hindu BJP’ communal, Muslim League secular, Rahul Gandhi sufferer, Modi dangerous.

Interestingly, in an article within the Economic Times written by one Seema Sirohi, it was claimed that Rahul Gandhi throughout his go to made a visit to the White House, which each events concerned – the Biden administration and Rahul Gandhi (Congress) selected to maintain underneath the wraps. 

For an opposition chief to go to the White House in ‘secret’, with out disclosing it to the federal government of India and the MEA, is a severe breach of protocol and will doubtlessly undermine India’s pursuits.

Speculations have been rife that Rahul Gandhi, in alliance with the Left and Islamists within the West, was trying a regime change operation as a result of democratically, Congress had been worn out on the nationwide degree with no signal of revival.

With the deep connections to rabid communists, Islamists and secret visits that haven’t been disclosed but, it turns into evident that Congress appeared to have labored in tandem with anti-India and anti-Hindu components to sabotage a State Visit by the Indian Prime Minister to a pleasant nation. Who that Prime Minister is immaterial. In a rustic that values democracy above all else, ideally, the alliances being fashioned by Congress needs to be thought of treacherous. Demanding overseas interference, as Rahul Gandhi has a number of occasions, together with allying with anti-India components to undermine democracy within the nation, no matter which occasion is in energy, is an act of inside aggression in opposition to the State that should be thought of critically and deliberated upon by a nation that stands on the cusp of civilisational revival.
