Violence and Threats Against Religious Minorities in India

Violence and Threats Against Religious Minorities in India: what can be done to prevent future conflict and protect those at risk? On Tuesday, March 28, 2023, the Kent Program hosted an interdisciplinary panel on violence towards religious minorities in India. Set against a complex historical backdrop of decolonisation, state-building, and conflict, growing violence and repression against religious minorities in India is again an urgent threat, even as India continues to develop into a global economic powerhouse and one of the world’s most populous and powerful nations. This expert panel, consisting of prominent academic, journalistic, literary, and policy voices, discussed the instruments of violence and repression, potential pathways for protecting India’s religious minorities,and strategies to mitigate the risks of future conflict.
