Hindus For Human Rights
@hfhr.bsky.social
We advocate for pluralism, civil and human rights in South Asia and North America, rooted in the values of shanti (peace), nyaya (justice) and satya (truth).
This #HumanRightsDay, our solidarity crosses every border.
For those imprisoned without trial, for minorities facing violence, for defenders targeted with terror laws—your fight is our fight.
Justice is indivisible.

On Constitution Day, we remember that India’s strength lies not in majoritarian power, but in a shared commitment to justice and dignity for all.
Ambedkar’s vision isn’t fully realized, but it still guides us.
Let's stand for a secular, equal, and inclusive India — in law and in life.
