In India, minorities are safer and more secure than in the US. Former Vice President Venkaiah Naidu

According to former vice president Venkaiah Naidu, minorities are safer and more secure in India than in many other nations, including the US. Secularism is in the blood of the Indian people.

At a reception held in his honor by the National Council of Asian Indian Associations in the Greater Washington, DC, region on Monday, Naidu, 74, spoke to a group of Indian Americans.

“There is constant propaganda (against India).” Various Western media outlets as well. They engaged in on the minority security and safety and India propaganda. I want to convince them that India is a safer place for minorities than this country is,” he remarked.

You may see both what is occurring in India and other nations. But, you know, there is prejudice,” he remarked. Naidu has just been visiting the US. He spoke to a group of Indian American physicians in Philadelphia over the weekend.

India respects its minorities, he said. Those who intended to go to Pakistan have already departed. Secularism is present in India because it is in the blood of Indians, he added, adding that those who chose to remain are still here.

In an apparent allusion to Pakistan, Naidu admonished the neighboring nation against meddling in India’s internal matters and said that Kashmir was an essential component of India. Naidu emphasized the significance of lifestyle modifications for healthy living in his keynote talk at the 41st annual American Association of Physicians of Indian Origin (AAPI) conference over the weekend.

He emphasized the value of protecting one’s nation and asked AAPI members to contribute back to their home country. In his words, “AAPI’s programs are more focused on addressing problems connected to the stigma of mental illness and the significance of practices like meditation and yoga, which connect the body and the mind. Sikhs of America honored Naidu at the event held by the National Council of Asian Indian Associations for his efforts to improve the lives of Sikhs in India.
