To secure representation and protect our rights as a minority religion in Canada, it’s vital for political leaders to grasp our perspectives and needs. We engage extensively with them to assess their alignment with Hindu values and ensure they support our community’s peaceful coexistence. We also educate leaders about misconceptions regarding Hindus and Hinduism, such as caste, Swastika and Hindutva, aiming to foster an environment in Canada where practicing Hinduism is free from discrimination and hostility. Through these efforts, we empower our community to make informed decisions about their representation.
