ആഗോള ഹിന്ദുത്വയെക്കുറിച്ചുള്ള സെമിനാറിനെതിരേ ഹിന്ദുത്വപ്രചാരണം; പ്രതിഷേധവുമായി 700ഓളം അക്കാദമി പണ്ഡിതര്‍

ന്യൂഡല്‍ഹി: ആഗോള ഹിന്ദുത്വഭീഷണിക്കെതിരേ നടക്കുന്ന ഓണ്‍ലൈന്‍ സെമിനാറിനെതിരേ ഹിന്ദുത്വരുടെ വിദ്വേഷപ്രചാരത്തില്‍ കനത്ത പ്രതിഷേധം. മൂന്ന് ദിവസമായി നടക്കാനിരിക്കുന്ന സെമിനാര്‍ ഹിന്ദുപേടിയുടെ പ്രദര്‍ശനമാണെന്ന് ചില കേന്ദ്രങ്ങള്‍ നടത്തുന്ന കുപ്രചാരണത്തിനെതിരേയാണ് ലോകത്തെ എഴുന്നൂറോളം അക്കദമിക്കുകള്‍ ഒപ്പ് വച്ച പ്രസ്താവന പുറത്തുവന്നത്. സെപ്തംബര്‍ 10-12 തിയ്യതികളിലാണ് ഡിസ്മാന്റ്‌ലിങ് ഗ്ലോബല്‍ ഹിന്ദുത്വ എന്ന് പേരിട്ടിട്ടുള്ള സെമിനാര്‍ നടക്കുന്നത്.

അമേരിക്കന്‍ ഹിന്ദുത്വ സംഘടനയായ കൊയലിഷന്‍ ഓഫ് ഹിന്ദു നോര്‍ത്ത് അമേരിക്കയും ഗണിതവിദഗ്ധനായ അഭിഷേക് ബാനര്‍ജിയും ഓഹിയോവിലെ സെനറ്ററായ നിരാജ് അന്‍ദാനിയുമാണ് സെമിനാറിനെതിരേ രംഗത്തുവന്നത്.

സിപിഎം- എംഎല്‍ നേതാവ് കവിതാ കൃഷ്ണ്‍, ചലച്ചിത്രകാരന്‍ ആനന്ദ് പട് വര്‍ധന്‍, എഴുത്തുകാരി മീന കണ്ഡസ്വാമി, ജെഎന്‍യു അധ്യാപകന്‍ അയേഷ് കിട്വായ്, ഡല്‍ഹി സര്‍വകലാശാല അധ്യാപകന്‍ നന്ദിനി സുന്ദര്‍ എന്നിവരാണ് ഇന്ത്യയില്‍ നിന്ന് പങ്കെടുക്കുന്നവര്‍. ഇവര്‍ക്കു പുറമെ നിരവധി തെക്കേഷ്യന്‍ വിദഗ്ധരും പങ്കെടുക്കുന്നുണ്ട്.

എന്താണ് ആഗോള ഹിന്ദുത്വ? ഹിന്ദുത്വ രാഷ്ട്രീയം, ജാതി രാഷ്ട്രീയം, ലിംഗരാഷ്ട്രീയം തുടങ്ങി നിരവധി വിഷയങ്ങള്‍ മൂന്ന് ദിവസത്തെ സെമിനാര്‍ ചര്‍ച്ച ചെയ്യുന്നുണ്ട്.

ലോകത്തെ പ്രമുഖ സര്‍വകലാശാലകളാണ് പരിപാടി സംഘടിപ്പിക്കുന്നത്. ഹാര്‍വാഡ്, സ്റ്റാന്‍ഫോര്‍ഡ്, കോര്‍നല്‍, പ്രിന്‍സ്ടണ്‍ തുടങ്ങിയ സര്‍വകലാശാലയും പരിപാടിയുടെ ഭാഗമാണ്.

അക്കാദമിക്കുകള്‍ക്കെതിരേയുള്ള കുപ്രചാരണങ്ങള്‍ അവസാനിപ്പിക്കണമെന്ന് പ്രസ്താവനയില്‍ ഒപ്പുവച്ചവര്‍ ആവശ്യപ്പെട്ടു.
