The United Hindu Front (UHF) staged a protest at Jantar Mantar on Sunday to voice their anger against what they described as the "brutal and recurring killings" of Indians in the United States.
Jai Bhagwan Goyal — UHF's international working president and Rashtrawadi Shiv Sena national president — alleged that the US imposes tariffs not only to weaken India's economic strength but also "tries to create an atmosphere of hatred and violence" against Indians.
He cited the recent beheading of Karnataka resident Chandra Mouli Nag Mallaiya and the shooting of Kapil, a 26-year-old from Haryana's Jind, as examples of Indians being "selectively targeted under the guise of racial hatred." Goyal said many persons of Indian origin occupy leading positions in American politics and industry, including former Vice President Kamala Devi Harris, Congressmen Suhas Subramanyam and Ro Khanna and CEOs Satya Nadella, Sundar Pichai, Arvind Krishna, Shantanu Narayen and Nikesh Arora.

"Despite the diaspora's significant contributions, Indians in the US are living in fear and insecurity. The same America that lectures the world on human rights is itself failing to protect Indians," he alleged.
The UHF demanded strict punishment for the culprits, substantial compensation for the victims' families, and security guarantees for Indians living in the US.
