NEW YORK: The Hindu Unity Day (Hindu Sangathan Divas) was celebrated with pomp, position, dignity, enthusiasm and grandeur in New York on August 30.

The auditorium was packed to capacity. The enthusiasm and jubilation on the part of audience was seen to be believed. The energetic spirit of attendees from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Guyana and Trinidad living in New York mingling freely with one another burying all distinctions of caste, creed, color, language, gender and nationality shattered the myth and debunked the obnoxious theories that Hindus are a divided entity and cannot be united
The meeting was addressed by Dr Subramanian Swamy, senior BJP leader and former Cabinet Minister of Law, Justice and Commerce, Government of India; Rajiv Malhotra, Founder and President of Infinity Foundation, author, philanthropist and community leader; Suresh Chavanke, Chairman, CEO of Sudarshan TV; Aditi Banerjee, Corporate Counsel at Leading Global Financial Services Firm; Dr Uma Mysorekar, President, Hindu Temple Society of North America; Vijay Shertukde, Author of Novel, “Blur”; Vibhuti Jha, an entrepreneur; Devendra Singh, Founder of HindiUSA, the largest Hindi organization in the United States; Dr Rajesh Shukla, Member, Central Committee Overseas Friends of BJP, Jagdish Sewhani, HSS Coordinator Community Reach; Surinder Verma, Dr Urmilesh Arya, Satya Dosapati, and Amya Gulati.
Dr Subramanian Swamy, personifying courage and perseverance was the Chief Guest. In his speech, Dr Swamy enthralled the audience with his forceful narration and outstanding arguments in support of the Hindu unity receiving huge and frequent applause from the audience.
Suresh Chavanke was another eloquent speaker who exposed the insidious designs of anti-Indian forces who have been clandestinely working to destroy India from within.
“The notion of Dalit-Christian has been developed to convince the Dalits that they are non-Hindus, and that Hinduism is a system of exploitation for which Christianity is the solution. It is, therefore, necessary that evangelist-left nexus, media mediocrity must be fought”, emphasized Rajiv Malhotra.
Aditi Banerjee suggested that we Hindus should devote more attention, energy and resources to leadership training. We need the leaders who are talented, who have vision, who can think strategically and who can manage and motivate a team. Presence of Vice Consul from Indian Consulate Shri Shambhu Amitabh was acknowledged and recognized by the Organizers.
