Thank you. I support your effort and other Hindu Americans in protesting this resolution. Hindu Diaspora have come to US and flourished in US (as well as many in many Western Nations) out of merit NOT because of any “privilege” of caste. US universities did not give them admission based on caste nor did the US embassies give visas based on caste. Indians from all walks of life used the opportunities to come to US and have been highly successful in contributing to the US economy, society, and culture. No one has veer claimed this to be due to their caste. Hence, it is strange that HRC is trying to impose Caste on this Diaspora who does not care about caste and strip them of their “Rights” to a dignified and harassment free life in the name of protecting “rights”. It is opening the door to institutionalization of demonization of Hindus and discrimination against Hindus, which HRC should be acting to avoid. HRC should be “arms-at-length” organization that should not be working with any Organization but hear representations from ALL in an open hearing without furthering anyone’s /any organization’s agenda. HRC members should act to maintain its highest moral, ethical and legal standards and reject this divisive and anti-Hindu proposal. Besides, it should institute a mechanism to keep parochial and political organizations at arms length.

Why stop at caste, include Shia, Sunni, Ahamdayars, Syrian catholics, orthodox greeks, pentacostal, etc. etc.? There are many more castes and groups in Christianity, and Islam, why not include them as well? If you think it is your moral responsibility to bring shame to the one community that contributes significantly to the welfare of your county, law abiding and enriches the culture of the community they live in, is only a proof of how bankrupt your moral values are!
By your biased and unsubstantiated intended action, the SCC HRC brings shame to the general residents of Santa Clara county.
