Global Hindu Heritage Foundation 14726 Harmony Lane, Frisco, Texas, USA 75035 www.savetemples.org;  Email: ghhfusaorg@gmail.com                                     May 14, 2026, 202 Honorable Pawan Kalyan,  Deputy Chief Minister Amaravati, Andhra Pradesh. Dear Sri Pawan Kalyan Garu:     Subj: Second request for you to follow Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Uttarakhand, and Madhya Pradesh in declaring a 15-kilometer radius around Tirupati and Tiruchanur as Holy cities. The Global Hindu Heritage Foundation has written a letter dated March 2, 2026, requesting that the Honorable Deputy Minister take action to preserve the sanctity of Tirumala. Tirupati and Tiruchanur are declared holy cities by banning liquor and meat products within a 15-kilometer radius.  So far, no action has been taken. This is the second letter GHHF is sending you, requesting that you act immediately to protect the sanctity of TT&T areas – Tirumala, Tirupati, and Tiruchanur.  Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Madhya Pradesh, and Uttarakhand have passed laws banning liquor and Meat products within a certain distance of religious places. Now, even a Christian Chief Minister, Sri C Joseph Vijay, has asked that all government stores be closed within a five-kilometer radius.     NOW, who are you protecting? Why has no action been taken? Why is the sanctity of Hindu Temples not a concern for you? Is your talk of sacrificing your life for Sanatana Dharma only to fool Hindus and favor Christians and Muslims? I hope you will stand up for Sanatana Dharm and for the sanctity of Hindu Temples.  Please read the first letter GHHF sent on March 2, 2026 Global Hindu Heritage Foundation requests that you maintain the sanctity of Tirupati and Tirumala in the manner of Tirumala, or follow the examples of Uttar Pradesh, the Punjab, Uttarakhand, and Madhya Pradesh.  We request that you introduce a bill in parliament to see that the sale of meat, alcohol, tobacco, non-vegetarian food, and any intoxicating substances will be completely prohibited. The sanctity of Tirumala must extend to all Hindu Temples and serve as a role model for the rest of the Hindu community worldwide. Lord Venkateswara, also known as Balaji, Srinivasa, or Govinda, is one of the most revered deities in Hinduism. His significance in the Puranas lies in preserving dharma, protecting devotees, and granting moksha (liberation). The stories about him appear primarily in the Varaha Purana, the Padma Purana, the Brahmanda Purana, and the Venkatachala Mahatmyam.  “There is no place in the universe so sacred as Venkatadri (Tirumala); there could be no manifestation of God like Sri Venkateswara either in the past or even in the future.”  It would be unfortunate to see the holiest place on the planet for Hindus being invaded by the sacrilegious activities polluting the religious environment and hurting the sentiments of Hindus. GHHF applauds your consistent statements in support of Sanatana Dharma and in favor of establishing the Santana Dharma Board across Bharat. Your recent speech in the Andhra Pradesh Assembly and related statements in early February 2026, where you emphasized that it is the "dharmic responsibility" of every Hindu to actively protect their faith, rather than remaining silent when Hindu dharma and gods are insulted. You called for an end to the "slumber" of the average Hindu mind, urging a shift from passive, private devotion to active, collective guardianship of their faith. GHHF is very happy to hear Pawan Kalyan speak about protecting Sanatana Dharma during his Varahi Declaration meeting, your unwavering commitment to question the so-called secularists, and your pledge to question anyone who attacks it. Speaking at your Varahi declaration meet in Tirupati, you issued a stern warning to those attempting to undermine Sanatana Dharma. “If anyone tries to wipe out Sanatana Dharma, let me tell you from the foot of Lord Balaji, you will be wiped out,” he stated firmly.  Pawan Kalyan, who identifies as an “unapologetic Sanatani Hindu,” made it clear that he is prepared to defend his faith with everything he has. Addressing his critics, he said, “I am conveying this to the so-called secularists who ridicule my Sanatana Dharma. Let me tell you, I will safeguard Sanatana Dharma with my life.” Declare a 25-kilometer radius around Tirupati and Tiruchanur as holy cities, as in the four other States in Bharat. 1)Uttar Pradesh enforced a strict ban on the sale and delivery of non-vegetarian food and liquor within a 15-kilometer radius of the Ram Janmabhoomi Temple, effective from January 9, 2026. This 15-km "no-consumption zone" specifically covers the sacred Panchkosi Parikrama route, a spiritual circumambulation path around the city. The ban explicitly includes online food delivery platforms such as Zomato and Swiggy. This "digital red line" was established after repeated complaints that non-vegetarian items were being transported through sacred routes via app-based services.  All hotels, homestays, and local guest houses within a 15-km radius are strictly prohibited from serving meat or alcoholic beverages to their guests. 2)Punjab: The Punjab government has officially declared Amritsar Walled City, Talwandi Sabo, and Sri Anandpur Sahib as holy cities. This designation brings a complete ban on the sale of meat, tobacco, alcohol, and other intoxicants in these revered Sikh locations. The Chief Minister, Bhagawant Singh Mann, said strict regulations will now apply in the holy cities. "Sale of meat, alcohol, tobacco, and any intoxicating substances will be completely prohibited."  3)Madhya Pradesh. Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav has asked officials to ensure that meat and liquor are not consumed in and around religious towns along the Narmada River, the state's lifeline. There are 21 districts, 68 tehsils, 1138 villages, and 1126 ghats, as well as 430 ancient Shiva temples and two 'shakti peeths' along the banks of the river. Chairing a meeting of officials on Friday, Yadav also said Amarkantak in Anuppur district, from where the Narmada originates, must be given top priority for environmental protection. 4)Uttarakhand. Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami said Haridwar is a sacred city and the government is committed to preserving its sanctity. “Haridwar is a holy city. The government is seriously considering steps to preserve its sanctity (restricting the entry of non-Hindus). The old Acts and existing provisions are being studied," Dhami said. In fact, a proposal to extend these restrictions to all 105 Ganga ghats, from Haridwar to Rishikesh, is currently under discussion with seers and the Shri Ganga Sabha, the apex body overseeing religious rituals in Haridwar. GHHF requests your indulgence in declaring Tirupati and Tiruchanur as holy cities and observing the sanctity within a 15-kilometer radius. Andhra Pradesh government should, in fact, lead the way for the rest of the country in maintaining the sanctity of Tirumala in many of the State's Hindu Temples.  Dhanyavad Prakasarao Velagapudi, PhD President, GHHF Phone: 601-918-7111

The role of the family is vital in the preservation of Hindu Dharma, and it is only when a family is economically and socially stable that Dharma can truly flourish within it. Believing in this truth and aiming to enhance the self-respect of Hindu women, the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation (GHHF) has taken a significant step that is now yielding wonderful results. In the free tailoring training center established in the Dhone region of Nandyal district, the first batch of women has successfully completed their training. This inaugural success marks the beginning of a new era of self-confidence. The training journey that commenced on January 10, 2026, concluded grandly on April 5, 2026. During this three-month intensive program, twenty Hindu women mastered professional tailoring skills. These members of the very first batch were officially awarded certificates by the organization. This certificate is not merely a piece of paper; it is a recognition of their economic independence and dignity. GHHF strongly believes that economic self-reliance is the only true way to prevent religious conversions that exploit poverty in rural areas. Standing firm against forces that divide Hindu families in the name of "service," this program has molded women to stand on their own feet under the slogan "Self-Respect Through Livelihood." The trainees were taught cloth cutting, modern designing, and sewing machine maintenance by expert instructors. The center, equipped with ten state-of-the-art sewing machines, has ignited a new enthusiasm among the women. Another unique aspect of this program is its integration with the Bala Samskara Kendras run by GHHF. By providing livelihood to the mothers while teaching values to their children, the noble objective of "Values for Children – Livelihood for Parents" is being fulfilled. This not only brings families closer to Dharma but also earns them a respectable position in society. The success achieved in Dhone is just the beginning. Very soon, the second batch of women in Alluri Sitharama Raju district is also going to complete their training. GHHF is expanding its service activities with the goal of seeing Hindu women across every village in the country become economically strengthened. Upon completing the training, the women expressed their gratitude to the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation for providing this opportunity. The organization is striving to guide them toward self-employment and, with the support of donors, plans to distribute sewing machines to those who are eligible. Become a part of this sacred mission to strengthen Hindu society economically and culturally. https://youtu.be/aP9_l1d4aC4?si=q047n53hYkFF7NBY Donations are appreciated.

Global Hindu Heritage Foundation, Chicago Chapter Presenting a discussion on Hinduism at Crossroads: A Time to Act Explaining the dangers of secularism, reservations, minority benefits, and articles 25, 26, and 30 to the survival of Bharath.  Date and Time: May 24 at 11:00 am Venue: National India Hub, Chicago. NOTE: Please circulate this flyer to all our friends in the Chicago area.

Driven by the noble mission of preserving Sanatana Dharma and fostering spiritual awakening, the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation (GHHF) organized a grand collective Hanuman Chalisa Parayanam at Marripalem village, Nathavaram Mandal, Anakapalli District. On the auspicious occasion of Hanuman Jayanti, our foundation successfully conducted this spiritual event to promote the sacred practice of reciting the Hanuman Chalisa in every village. Under the dedicated supervision of our Pracharaks, Sri Raju, Sri PP Raju, the program commenced at 4:00 AM and continued with great fervor until 2:00 PM. Despite other community events and festivities taking place in the village, devotees responded to our call with immense devotion and gathered in large numbers. A total of 108 devotees united their voices to chant the Hanuman Chalisa 13 times with profound faith, seeking the divine blessings of Lord Hanuman. The cooperation of the Marripalem village GHHF Bhajan group played a vital role in the success of this spiritual yagna. To ensure the comfort of the participants, buttermilk prepared by Sri Pawan was served to everyone, and our foundation arranged for the distribution of Pulihora Prasadam to all the devotees. A significant highlight of the event was the distribution of spiritual gifts by the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation. To honor their participation and encourage their spiritual journey, every devotee was presented with Tulsi Malas and sacred Panchamukhi Rudrakshas. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the GHHF village committee members, the local residents, and the volunteers from various villages who worked tirelessly to make this event a grand success. The Global Hindu Heritage Foundation remains committed to taking the divine vibration of the Hanuman Chalisa to every household, ensuring the timeless glory of Sanatana Dharma shines bright in every village. Jai Shri Ram! Jai Hanuman!  Donations are appreciated.

Dear Friends and Supporters, With your generous support, we have been able to send approximately Rs. 500,000 ($5, 325; and will send more as we get funds) so far for the care and rehabilitation of the 112+ underage girls recently rescued from trafficking in Jharkhand. We wanted to share a brief update, so every donor knows that the funds received are being used immediately and responsibly to meet these girls' most urgent needs during this difficult transition period. So far, your donations have helped provide: Clothing: Two fresh sets of clothes have been secured for all 100+ rescued girls, helping restore a sense of dignity and basic comfort. Blankets and Bedding: One blanket has been provided for each girl, and about 60 bedding sets have been purchased for their temporary accommodation. Medical Care: Medical expenses have been covered for girls who needed immediate treatment. Mental Health Support: Medical counseling has started for some of the girls who need emotional and psychological healing after the trauma they have endured. Efforts for Reunion with their Families: The team has put volunteers to contact/visit and evaluate the families to plan their return to their families. This is the most resource-intensive work as their safe return takes time. This phase of this work takes months and is sometimes the hardest. These girls arrived with almost nothing, but thanks to your kindness, they now have clothing, bedding, medical care, and compassionate care. This is not just material support — it is a powerful message to them that they are not forgotten. The road ahead is still long. Reuniting them safely with their families can take several months, and we still need continued support for food, shelter, medical care, counseling, rent, and daily necessities. On behalf of the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation and the girls in care, we sincerely thank every donor who has contributed so far to protect and care for the rescued girls. Your support is being used with urgency, care, and accountability. Thank you for standing with them during their journey from rescue to healing and reunion. Donations are appreciated.

OFBJP (Overseas Friends of BJP-USA) organized an inspiring and enthusiastic Victory Celebration in McKinney, Texas, on May 10. Victory in West Bengal, Assam, and Puducherry, along with significant gains in Kerala, is celebrated. Narendra Modiji was extolled for his leadership, and he was able to circumvent the opposition in all these States, without resorting to any drastic acts contrary to the constitution. Smt. Madhavi Kolli, the Vice-President, BJP, Telangana, was invited as a special guest to celebrate the BJP's victory in three States in Bharat. She narrated her experience in West Bengal, where she spent about 45 days, mainly to build the confidence of women voters, make them fearless, and encourage them to exercise their right to vote. Her exposure to the lawlessness in West Bengal began with a Taxi driver who spoke about the Mamata government's ruthlessness. She mentioned that in the 2022 elections, 321 BJP workers were killed by the Mamata government. Despite those killings, can you imagine thousands of BJP workers participating fearlessly to establish law and order and elect the BJP in West Bengal? She applauded all the workers who worked tirelessly, knowing fully well that their lives may be at stake. Based on reports surrounding the 2021 West Bengal Assembly elections, the victory of the Trinamool Congress (TMC) did not immediately stop killings, rapes, and burning; rather, the post-poll period was marked by intense violence against political opponents. Reports of violence following the 2021 results included numerous cases of murders, rapes, and arson against opposition workers, particularly those associated with the BJP.  In fact, due to fear, thousands of residents and BJP workers were forced to leave their homes, with some seeking shelter in neighboring states.  The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) intervened, sending teams to investigate allegations of widespread violence, particularly against women and children. Shift in Administration: The violence continued for several days after the results were declared. Reports indicated that after Mamata Banerjee assumed power for the third time and issued instructions to the administration, she claimed to have brought the law-and-order situation under control. However, allegations of violence and counter-allegations between political parties persisted for months following the 2021 victory. OpIndia magazine documented 41 incidents between May and July 2021 that involved lynching, crude bomb attacks, and forced conversions. Houses were torched, women assaulted, and families fled to Assam. Victims also accused police of refusing to file complaints and issuing threats.  In fact, on June 5, 2015, the Global Hindu Heritage Foundation wrote about the atrocities in West Bengal under the title, “West Bengal is Burning; Hindu Women are Repeatedly Raped; Villages Ransacked; Your Help is Crucial. “What is happening to Hindus in West Bengal is horrible, inhuman, atrocious, demoralizing, and brutal. It is a lesson all Hindus have to learn sooner or later. Sooner the better. If we cannot stop these expansions, infiltrations, and tortures, we will face the same fate our forefathers have experienced. If we did not learn the past history of Muslim rule of nearly ten centuries, Hindus are going to face the ethnic cleansing the way Pakistan has done, the way Kashmir has succeeded in driving Kashmiri Pandits  away from their homeland, and the way Bangladesh has depleted the Hindu population from nearly 28 percent at the time of partition to less than 7 percent as of this year. Day in and day out, many Hindu women are raped, tortured, and killed.” Nirmala Reddy, Bheema Penta, Pankaj Kumar, Hemant Kale, Prakasarao Velagapudi, and others spoke on the occasion. One minute's silence was observed for all those who lost their lives for the country. Proudly assembled Hindus shouted "Bharat Mata Ki Jai" several times. Also said. Narendra Modi ki Jai. The Victory Celebration ended with greater inspiration and a clear vision for protecting Bharath Mata.     A book entitled “Narendra Modi: the Pride of Bharath,” written by Prakasarao Velagapudi, was presented to Smt. Madhavi Kolli and all the dignitaries on the stage. Jai Hind {{album_1595}}

“Where women are honored, there the gods are pleased; but where they are not honored, no sacred rite yields rewards.”  — Manu Smriti III.56 “There is no greater good in all the world than motherhood. The influence of a mother in the lives of her children is beyond calculation.” — James E. Faust First of all, we wish all mothers a Happy Mother’s Day. We should acknowledge, on this Mother’s Day, the role of the mother in our religion, culture, scriptures, and many other fields, such as science, politics, philosophy, education, music, and economics. Her impeccable role in the family is recognized, her unselfish sacrifice to the family is documented, and her indomitable strength is acknowledged. She is considered the backbone of the family, a stabilizing force that plays a vital role in its preservation.  Mother occupies the highest and most sacred place in Hindu thought, culture, and family life. Hinduism regards motherhood not merely as a biological relationship but as a divine manifestation of sacrifice, compassion, nurturing, and protection. On Mother’s Day, it is important to reflect upon the immense contributions mothers make in shaping individuals, preserving families, transmitting values, and sustaining civilization itself. Hinduism highly respects women and mothers.  The famous dictum Matru Devo Bhava— “Mother is God”—summarizes the Hindu understanding of motherhood. No relationship is considered more selfless or sacred. Hinduism uniquely worships the Divine Mother in many forms: Sri Lakshmi as the goddess of wealth and prosperity, Saraswati as the goddess of knowledge and learning, Parvati as the embodiment of marital auspiciousness and compassion, and Kali as the protector against evil and destructive forces. During Navaratri, millions worship the Divine Mother in her various manifestations for nine sacred nights. The Devi Mahatmyam glorifies the Divine Mother: “By you this universe is borne, by you this world is created. By you it is protected, O Devi; by you it is consumed at the end.” This vision elevates womanhood and motherhood to cosmic significance. Hindu scriptures repeatedly emphasize the necessity of honoring women for the prosperity and stability of society. The Manu Smriti declares: “From the point of view of reverence due, A teacher is tenfold superior to a lecturer, a father, a hundredfold superior to a teacher, and a mother a thousandfold superior to a father.” (II.45) Another verse states: “Women must be honored and adorned by their fathers, brothers, husbands, and brothers-in-law, who desire their own welfare.” (III.55) It further warns: “Where the female relations live in grief, the family soon wholly perishes; but that family where they are not unhappy ever prospers.” (III.57) Thus, Hindu civilization clearly recognized the dignity and importance of women long before many other societies did. From Vedic times onward, women played an indispensable role in preserving Hindu dharma and culture. Great women such as Sita, Savitri, Draupadi, Gargi, Maitreyi, Kunti, Anasuya, Arundhati, and Madalasa continue to inspire generations through their devotion, wisdom, courage, and sacrifice. Hindu thought views husband and wife as equal partners in dharma and family life. A wife is called Ardhaangini (“half of oneself”), Sahadharmini (“equal participant in righteous duties”), and Dharmapathni (“guide in dharma”). Marriage is viewed not as domination by one over the other, but as a sacred partnership built on mutual support and responsibility. The mother occupies a unique role as the moral and spiritual foundation of the family. She is the child's first teacher (Guru). She instills discipline, compassion, faith, ethics, and cultural values from early childhood. Before a child learns from society, school, or scripture, the child learns through the love and guidance of the mother. Stephen Knapp observed: “Women in motherhood… are the first guru and guide of the child and thus of humanity. Before any child learns hatred or aggression, they first know the love of a mother. Swami Vivekananda repeatedly glorified motherhood as the highest ideal in Hindu civilization. He stated: “The ideal woman in India is the mother, the mother first, and the mother last.” He further said: “The position of the mother is the highest in the world… The love of God is the only love that is higher than a mother’s love.” For Swami Vivekananda, motherhood represented the highest expression of unselfishness, sacrifice, forgiveness, and unconditional love. He noted that while children may abandon their mothers, mothers never desert their children. Swami Sivananda described the Divine Mother as: “The mysterious, indescribable power of the Supreme Being.” Similarly, author Francois Gautier explained that Hinduism has long revered the feminine principle as the source of wisdom, force, beauty, and compassion. The Mahabharata contains profound reflections on the greatness of motherhood. Bhishma Pitamaha declared: “There is no shelter like the mother. There is no refuge like the mother. There is no defense like the mother. There is no one so dear as the mother.” Bhishma explained that a mother's presence provides emotional strength and protection throughout life. Even an old man remains like a small child in his mother's eyes. Her blessings continue to protect her children regardless of age or circumstance. Mother Kunti exemplifies sacrifice, courage, and dharma. Despite enduring immense suffering, humiliation, exile, and loss, she raised the Pandavas with righteousness and strength. She encouraged her sons to fight not for personal ambition, but for justice and the preservation of dharma. After the war, when questioned by Yudhishthira about her decision to retire into the forest, Kunti explained that all her actions were motivated by her duty to protect the honor and future of her children and family lineage. Her words reflect the selflessness of motherhood: “It was to arouse you to your own glory that I pushed you into war… so that the noble line of King Pandu may not come to an end.” Similarly, Gandhari represents another dimension of motherhood—moral guidance and concern for righteousness. Although her son Duryodhana chose the path of greed and war, Gandhari consistently advised peace and justice. She warned him repeatedly against adharma and pleaded for reconciliation with the Pandavas. Her famous declaration remains timeless: “Where there is dharma, there is victory.” Even Lord Krishna praised Gandhari’s wisdom and righteousness. Her life demonstrates that a true mother not only loves her children deeply but also guides them toward moral conduct. The profound love of a mother is illustrated in the episode before Duryodhana’s final battle. Gandhari, wishing to protect her son, asked him to appear before her unclothed so that her spiritual power could make his body invulnerable. Out of modesty, he covered part of his body, leaving it vulnerable—the very spot where Bhima later struck him. This moving incident reveals both the depth of maternal love and the tragic consequences of ignoring wise counsel. Adi Shankaracharya also expressed immense reverence for his mother Aryamba. Though he became a renunciate monk, he returned to fulfill his promise to care for her during her final moments and personally performed her funeral rites. He acknowledged that no son can ever repay the suffering endured by a mother during pregnancy, childbirth, and child-rearing. In one of his emotional verses, he says: “For all these in return, O mother dearest, I can never compensate, even by my becoming great.” These words capture the eternal truth that a mother’s sacrifice is immeasurable. In today’s world, where family values are increasingly challenged, the role of the mother remains indispensable. She continues to be the emotional center of the home, the preserver of tradition, and the guide who shapes future generations. A mother’s love transcends social, economic, and cultural boundaries. Her affection is unconditional, her endurance unmatched, and her prayers ceaseless. On Mother’s Day, society must recognize not only the emotional contributions of mothers, but also their spiritual, cultural, and civilizational importance. Hinduism teaches that honoring women and mothers is essential for the well-being of families and society itself. Let us therefore express gratitude to all mothers for their sacrifices, patience, compassion, and unwavering support. Let us preserve the values they transmit and ensure that future generations continue to honor motherhood with reverence and respect. For truly, there is no love more selfless, no protector more devoted, and no blessing greater than that of a mother.

The Global Hindu Heritage Foundation (GHHF) has started two Centers to provide tailoring training to enable them to stand on their feet, provide opportunities to their children, break the cycle of poverty, and sustain the family unity.  GHHF is conducting two tailoring training courses that take about two months to complete, during which participants earn money for their families. These two cemeteries were sponsored by two families. One is in Anantapur, and the other is in Nandyala. In both Centers, about 20 women are getting tailoring training. They will finish the course in two months.  Our plan is to train 20-25 women in tailoring every two months.  GHHF is committed to bringing positive change in the lives of underprivileged Hindu women. We are empowering these women, who face many challenges due to financial difficulties, through a tailoring training program. This program not only provides skills but also encourages them to become economically independent and live with self-confidence. In villages, it is very difficult to find employment to provide for the family's daily needs. They lack adequate education and struggle to find proper jobs in the villages. Empowering women with skills to earn wages leads to healthier families, more educated children, stronger communities, and better economies. In India, especially in rural and economically backward areas, Hindu women face many hardships due to a lack of employment opportunities. Unfortunately, in some regions, exploiting this economic vulnerability, some individuals are engaging in religious conversions. They entice poor women by showing promises of free education, medical care, or small financial aid. Our tailoring training program is a strong solution to this problem. Through this comprehensive 2-month training, women learn tailoring skills. This will enable them to not only financially support their families but also protect themselves from the clutches of religious conversions. In line with the principles of service and self-reliance taught by Hindu Dharma, this project contributes significantly to social stability. Empowering women with skills training will change their lives, their communities, and the country's economy. The more support we have, the more Centers we can start to empower more women.

Human trafficking—driven by forced labor and exploitation—remains a devastating crisis. But today, there is a glimmer of hope. Our ground volunteers in Jharkhand have successfully rescued more than 112+ underage Hindu girls from this darkness. They are currently in a temporary shelter, safe but vulnerable, waiting to be reunited with their families. The Urgent Need: When these young girls were rescued, they had nothing but the clothes on their backs. The Global Hindu Heritage Foundation (GHHF) has already provided the initial funds to secure temporary apartments and food, but we cannot sustain this without you. The process of verifying families and ensuring a safe return takes 3 to 6 months. Security risks are high, and the logistics are incredibly tough. We must protect and provide for them during this delicate transition. We urgently need to raise $11,000 to cover their basic survival for the next 90 days: •    Food & Nutrition: $6,000 •    Clothing (Two fresh sets per girl): $3,000 •    Beds, Blankets, Medical & Rent: $2,000 Be the Bridge from "Rescued" to "Reunited" Your donation today directly translates into a warm meal, a safe bed, and a fresh start for a child who has endured the unthinkable.

Sri Sashi Kant and his wife organized a large-scale function to celebrate the victory in West Bengal, where the BJP captured a two-thirds majority by defeating the most corrupt, ruthless, and bloody regime led by Mamata Banerjee. Sashiji is a staunch Hindu who selflessly supports numerous Hindu organizations and projects and is recognized as a champion of Sanatana Dharma. He invited many Hindu-minded people to this victory celebration. Everybody who attended the function appreciated his leadership, his passion, and his spirit in conducting the Victory Celebration On the evening of May 5th, members of the Hindu community in Dallas gathered in large numbers at Sigree Indian Restaurant in Addison to celebrate the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) 's historic victory in West Bengal, turning the event into a vibrant expression of pride, unity, and patriotic enthusiasm.  About 25 people who spoke on the occasion highlighted that the victory was not merely electoral but symbolic of a growing national awakening and cultural confidence among Hindus worldwide. The gathering applauded the victory, reminding Hindus living in the United States that they could contribute by raising awareness, strengthening community unity, and supporting the growing “saffron wave” of cultural pride and nationalism. Many attendees expressed deep admiration for the resilience of Bengal’s voters and said the celebrations reflected hope for a stronger and more united future for India. Speakers also remember countless voters reportedly faced political intimidation, threats, and social pressure over the last fifteen years. During Mamata Banerjee's time, people were harassed, attacked, humiliated, and even killed. People were even fearful of going to polling booths to exercise their rights. In this election, the visible energy among youth, women, and grassroots workers reflected confidence that Bengal’s political future could no longer be controlled by coercion. This time it was different. The speakers appreciated the efforts of Sri Narendra Modi, Amit Shah, and the Election Commissioner. They worked tirelessly to ensure the safety of people going to the polling booths. Many voters openly declared that they wanted change, transparency, and development over political intimidation. Hindus who gathered here were reminded of the future. Ten years from now, do we see the same enthusiasm and sense of unity? They are reminded that, in the future, will we have the same confidence in Hinduism's survival? Hindu family size is declining, whereas the Muslim population size is increasing. Muslims have been very vocal in making India an Islamic country. There will be democracy only where there are Hindus. If Hindus have to protect their culture, Vedic traditions, and democratic values, it is time to declare India a Hindu Nation, treating everyone with equal rights, with no reservations, no Ministry of Minority Affairs, and no special privileges.  “One law, One Nation” is the motto of the hour.  A one-minute silence was observed in remembrance of the people who lost their lives over the years in protecting democracy in West Bengal.  Gathered Hindus expressed their gratitude to Sashiji for organizing the Victory Celebration. Jai Shree Ram.   {{album_1592}}
