Data for Crimes Against Hindus, 2020

The table below gives the database of crimes against Hindus, for the year 2020. It includes all crimes and persecution of Hindus, where they are targeted for being Hindu.

The total number is the number of lives affected.

Wherever exact number is not stated by news reports, a conservative estimate has been taken. This estimate is conservative, and highly likely to be less than or very close to the actual number. In no way has any number been purposely inflated.

Estimating Conversions by Christian Evangelists:

Assuming 2.3% Christian population, and considering population of India to be 1.38 billion, we take the figure of 3.9% evangelical growth from the website of Joshua project. 

The purpose of the database is to track the number, location and nature of these crimes, and bring justice to Hindus worldwide by realizing the severity of the problem.

Number of Lives Affected for the Year 2020:
