In part 2, I will cover, the following:-
 
  • Dangerous Afro-Dalit project to paint Dalits as the ‘Blacks’ of India
  • Propagating Wrong Theory Of Foreign Aryans And Their Misdeeds
  • Funding activities inimical to India’s unity, sovereignty
  • Stopping Intellectual Support To Subversive Elements In India

From Breaking India, written in 2011 to Snakes in the Ganga :Breaking India 2.0 written in Sept 2022
 
 
The byline ‘Breaking India 2.0’ explains there are new dangers compared to the ones discussed in Shree Malhotra’s earlier classic book, Breaking India, written in 2011 .The forces this time around are wider in scope and with substantial financial backing.
 
Brief summary of dangers visualized in the book Breaking India 1.0 as projected in 2011 are given in succeeding paras.
 
 
Dangerous Afro-Dalit project to paint Dalits as the ‘Blacks’ of India
 
 
In the 1990s, an African-American scholar at Princeton University told the author that he had returned from a trip to India, where he was working with the ‘Afro-Dalit Project’. This US operated and -financed project frames inter-jati /varna interactions and the Dalit movement using American cultural and historical lenses. The Afro-Dalit project purports to paint Dalits as the ‘Blacks’ of India and non-Dalits as India’s ‘Whites’. The history of American racism, slavery and Black/White relations is thus superimposed onto Indian society.
 
The Dalit experience bears little resemblance to the African slave experience of America.Dalits in India have reached the highest positions in all walks of life in India. But taking its cue from the American experience, the Afro-Dalit project attempts to empower Dalits by casting them as victims.
 
Dividing India on the basis of caste is perilous and should not be accepted. All individuals , organizations, NGOs running such programs should be stopped and blacklisted. Only united India will help the country to take its rightful place in the comity of nations faster.
 
 
Propagating Wrong Theory Foreign Aryans And Their Misdeeds
 
 
Separately, he was studying and writing about the ‘Aryans’, as to who they were, and whether the origin of Sanskrit and Vedas was an import by ‘invaders’ or indigenous to India. This led to research the colonial-era construction of the Dravidian identity, which did not exist prior to the nineteenth century and was fabricated as an identity in opposition to the Aryans. Its survival depends upon belief in the theory of foreign Aryans and their misdeeds.
 
The authors had also been researching the US Church’s funding of activities in India, such as the popularly advertised campaigns to ‘save’ poor children by feeding, clothing and educating them. However, during trips to India, The authors found that the funds collected were being used not so much for the purposes indicated to sponsors, but for indoctrination and conversion activities.
 
Additionally, the authors was involved in numerous debates in the US with think-tanks, independent scholars, human rights groups and academics, specifically on their treatment of Indian society as a sort of scourge that the west had to ‘civilize’.
 

Snakes in the Ganga: Breaking India 2.0 Part 2 
 
 
In his book “The Invasion That Never Was”, published in – March 1, 1996 Michel Danino, proves that the theory of Aryan invasion was wrong(if at all a proof was required). A student of Indian civilization, culture and history, he has lectured widely and published research papers in journals of archaeology and Indology. In 1996, he wrote a brief study of the Aryan in the Indian context, The Invasion That Never Was (2nd edition 2000), further enlarged a decade later in a French book. David Frawley, an American author, researcher also proved that the Aryans invasion never took place.
 
It's incredible and shocking that so many generations have swallowed the myth of an 'Aryan invasion' all their years. It is an eye opener especially for all Indians who have been deceived by a fake history of its own land. Subversion of our history requires it to be corrected and countered.
 
 
Snakes Incubated And Nurtured In American Ivy League Universities
 
 
These negative forces are infiltrating India’s institutions and polluting them with toxins to retard India’s economic progress.
 
The book explains the new academic frameworks and discourse being developed in places like Harvard University that have sinister intentions towards India. It also explains how some of India’s own elites, including some well-known, are knowingly or unknowingly, consciously or maybe unconsciously, actively sponsoring such negative forces.
 
The book says that the nest where these snakes are being incubated and nurtured are American Ivy League universities. The production of such anti-India knowledge involves a large number of Indians at every level, but the overall leadership at the highest levels tends to be controlled by Westerners.
 
Many bright young Indians are lured into Harvard’s orbit, tutored and brainwashed before sending them back to India to spread the dangerous thinking. The authors examine in detail several snake nests at Harvard – various departments and centers in public health, humanities, government, South Asian Studies and other disciplines, all under the Harvard brand.
 
Even entire institutions are being set up in India where such individuals and ideologies are imported and spread among India’s present and future leaders.
 
Many such snakes are camouflaged as movements like human rights, social justice, women’s empowerment, pluralism, free speech, democracy, and other such buzzwords.
 
The legitimacy of the Indian government is challenged, and all kinds of social problems blamed on its government as well as the Hindu civilization. Dalits, Muslims, feminists, LGBTQ+ and others are aroused to oppose the Indian nation. This is a Breaking India strategy.
 
 
Harvard is a snake's nest;
 
 
Black author Isabel Wilkerson has added her voice through her book Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents. Her book has ‘fabricated a new identity’ that unifies Dalits and Africans and projects them ‘as the epicenter of victimhood’. She blames all racism worldwide on caste. According to her, caste, which she attributes to ancient Vedic sources, is the source of all racism. The British picked it up from India and took it to America and that resulted in racism against Blacks.
 
Wilkerson’s book has gained mileage in American media, due to promotion by the New York Times and Oprah Winfrey through her book club.
 
Wilkerson’s thesis is taught as established fact at Harvard and counter-arguments are not entertained. Many corporations use this work in their diversity training initiatives, which is an assault on Indian society.
 
Snakes in the Ganga is the first serious rebuttal to Wilkerson’s thesis. The battle of narrative warfare can only be won if it's fought in the USA media and also USA universities like Harvard.
 
 
Harvard Universities effort to recolonize India
 
 
In the days of the British Raj, discourse about India was controlled by Oxford University. Now it's the Americans that have taken over this recolonization project, headed by its institutions led by Harvard. The book uncovers the vast ecosystem and funding network created by Harvard and speed and scale of these efforts.
  
"Harvard is a snake's nest; their websites and dissertations are rife with the anti-Indian and anti-Hindu sentiment, the place where anti-India activists and ideas are incubated and bred. New threats have emerged that need to be identified and dealt with. This desire is to undermine Indian social structures.
 
The book explains how American Marxism is being exported into Bharat through individuals who support ideas and institutions that are dangerous to India.
 
 
Social Science Liberal Arts At Harvard Aren’t Based On Indian Ideas
 
 
An important point explained in the book is that the DNA of such snakes is Marxism; this poison is spilling into society. The book explains how Marxism is being reformulated and repackaged into ideological systems like Critical Race Theory. The authors are in support of movements like Black Lives Matter but wish to point out how such movements are being dovetailed to fulfil Marxist agendas.

Social Science and liberal arts at Harvard aren’t based on Indian ideas. If Bharatiyas want to sponsor Harvard, then they should sponsor streams such as science, technology, engineering, and medicine.
 
The book also looks into the role of Indian corporates in ” bringing the latest Western rubric of Environmental, Social, and Governance ratings into their workplace.” It“unveils uncomfortable truths concerning India’s vulnerabilities, “intense warfare against India’s integrity is the work of a well-orchestrated global machinery driven by a new ideology.”
 
Book points out how China doesn’t engage Harvard in social justice and human rights. India has to evolve the Indian rubric of Environmental, Social, and Governance ratings in India.
 
Like China, India should set an Indian agenda for Harvard. Indian corporates like the Azim Premjis, Anand Mahindra, Lakshmi Mitta,Ajay Piramal and many others should fund Harvard only if they follow Indian way of thinking.
 
 
Funding activities inimical to India’s unity and sovereignty
 
 
The authors decided to track the major organizations involved in promulgating various anti Indian theories, as well as those spearheading political campaigns, and eventually the prosecution of India on the grounds of human rights violations. The research included following the money trail by using the provisions of financial disclosure in the US, studying the promotional materials given out by most such organizations, and monitoring their conferences, workshops and publications. They investigated the individuals behind such activities and their institutional affiliations.
 
What the authors found out should sound the alarm bell for every Indian concerned about our national integrity. India is the prime target of a huge enterprise—a ‘network’ of organizations, individuals and churches—that seems intensely devoted to the task of creating a separatist identity, history and even religion for the vulnerable sections of India.
 
This nexus of players includes not only church groups, government bodies and related organizations, but also private think tanks and academics. On the surface they appear to be separate and isolated from one another, but in fact, it was found, their activities are well coordinated and well funded from the US and Europe.
 
Their resolutions, position papers and strategies are well articulated, and beneath the veneer of helping the downtrodden, there seem to be objectives that would be inimical to India’s unity and sovereignty.
 
The author's research on anti Indian activities In the USA is very comprehensive and should be an eye opener for everybody in India. The author deserves to be complimented for his painstaking research.
 
The Supreme Court on 14 November 22 said religious conversions by means of force, allurement or fraud may “ultimately affect the security of the nation and freedom of religion and conscience of citizens” while directing the Centre to “step in” and clarify what it intends to do to curb compulsory or deceitful religious conversion. This underlines how serious the threat is, highlighted by Rajiv Malhotra in his book .
 
 
Intellectual Support To Subversive Elements In India
 
 
A few Indians from the communities being ‘empowered’ were in top positions in these Western organizations, and the whole enterprise was conceived, funded and strategically managed by Westerners. However, there are now a growing number of Indian individuals and NGOs who have become co-opted by them, and receive funding and mentorship from the West.
 
The south Asian studies in the US and European universities invite many such ‘activists’ regularly and give them prominence. The same organizations had also been inviting and giving intellectual support to Khalistanis, Kashmir militants, Maoists, and other subversive elements in India.
 
Whether the campaigns to mobilize Dalits, Dravidians and others in India were part of the foreign policy of few Western countries ?. In no other major country so much anti society campaign is being run.
 
This separatist identity gets weaponized into all out militancy, LWE, violence or political fragmentation. It was noticed that many Indians are simply unaware of the subversive forces at work against their country.
 
This book looks at the current players involved in shaping these separatist identities. It includes an analysis of the individuals and institutions involved and their motivations, activities, and desired endgame. While many are located in the US and the European Union, there are an increasing number in India too, the latter often functioning like the local branch offices of these foreign entities.
 
The subversive elements come in many shapes and sizes. They need to be identified early and dealt with under the laws of the land.
 
The country has finally started dealing with subversive elements both from abroad and within the country. Over the last few years many NGOs who received funds for subversive activities have been banned or their funding stopped.
 
Much is being written about India’s rise in economic terms and its implications to India’s overall clout. But not enough is written on what can go wrong given the rapidly expanding programs exposed in this book and the stress they put on India’s fault lines.
