"In a survey into the global media reports for three years 2020-22, we can find 8806 articles mentioning the word majoritarian or majoritarianism [….] in more than 80 percent of the cases, the Hindus of India are the guilty majority. Given the population of India being less than 18 percent of the world population, it takes an amazing amount of audacity to blame Hindu majoritarianism so disproportionately."
"The puzzle emerges: Why is the global media so sharp on the majoritarianism of the Hindus when the Hindus effectively enjoy less rights by the Indian constitution, judiciary and politics compared to the minorities?"
"‘Majoritarianism’ is a vacuous word that left liberals use all the time."
"The term ‘majoritarianism’ is used in India as a convenient way to demonise Hindus without any reference to first principles."

Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
