Since the Black Death plague in 14th century, when people went after Jews, beggars, and foreigners across Europe, every disease outbreak has been followed by racism and xenophobia.
In the midst of the 21-day lockdown, multiple cases of people from the Northeast being called ‘coronavirus’ and other racist slurs have emerged in the city.
While US President Donald Trump is constantly calling coronavirus the ‘Chinese virus’, people from northeast India are being targeted, abused and attacked.
Indian judiciary has a corrosive imbalance between the bar and the bench. Those who supervise the district judiciary do so without the lived experience that is essential for meaningful reform.
November exports to the US saw 10% growth from the previous month. Overall, in the first 8 months this fiscal, the merchandise exports to the US touched has touched $59bn.
Of the total package, $649 million will be utilised for additional hardware, software, and support services, and the remaining for Major Defence Equipment (MDE).
Don’t blame misfortune. This is colossal incompetence and insensitivity. So bad, heads would have rolled even in the old PSU-era Indian Airlines and Air India.
Asian people face so much discrimination in the Gulf nations of the Middle East. India, Philippines, Bangladesh, Pakistan and other Asian countries need to stop sending their workers to these countries. This man even said that he’s not racist because he has an Asian maid at home doing all the work for him.
Who are these Arabs to say anything bad to south asians. They were nothing 80 years ago and after that Allah gave them the wealth of oil . So now they think asians are inferior to them . Their all infrastructure,buildings and roads are built by these south asian people. They should thank us for developing their countries.
Futile attempt to whitewash ARAB racism by ignorant and misguided author(s) of this composition. The fact is that the natives of the ‘holy lands’ of Islamic Middle East have only contempt for all non- whites with special scorn for subcontinental Muslims (called Hindi). No prize for guessing how non-Muslims ( Kaffirs ) are looked upon. In these Islamic ‘holy lands’ the salary for the same job is vey different and is determined by the country of your passport. Subcontinental labour and professionals are naturally at the bottom of the heap.
The so called ‘Liberals’ and ‘Appeasement Advocates’ shouting loudly ‘Intolerant India’ and ‘shrinking space for minorities’ need to go and live in the ‘Islamic holy lands’ for a while until the screws loose in their head are properly tightened!
I completely agree. I know several Indian and Pakistani engineers here is USA. Everyone, without exception, said how people from South Asia are looked down upon and discriminated.
I think the gulf countries are just playing catching up with right wing parties of europe and india. terrible example to take . Never heard such racist comment publicly aired like that in any arab channels. Arabs are making it mainstream this is really really terrible.
There is no catching up. Arabs and Islamic followers are already hardliners who still stone women in this day and age. Look at how a foreign worker is treated , their passports are confiscated. Many videos of foreign workers crying have surfaced. And they didn’t take a single refugee. Bcoz they consider all converted non-arab Muslim to be filthy.
India is the most tomerant country. I muslims have a habit of randirona. Muslims get a lot of govt benefits and subsidies that we don’t get
At least Indians and Bengalis are smarter than any Middle East person that’s why UAE is successful. I wonder what the self-custodian of freedom for Muslims Al Jazeera has to say about this episode?
Why do Pakistan and India possess nuclear technology
Is it because of money from the khaleej
No
It’s because of their intellect
Case closed
