Leading American thinker and critic Professor Noam Chomsky has said that the worst kind of Islamophobia is seen in India, where the Modi government is systematically undermining India's secular democracy.
He expressed these views in the form of a recorded message for a briefing of the US Congress.
The Indian American Muslim Council and 16 other leading organizations held a congressional briefing on February 9 in which they described the treatment of Indian Muslims under Prime Minister Narendra Modi as deadly, horrific and contrary to democratic values.
In this regard, Noam Chomsky said that Islamophobia is taking the most deadly form in India where Modi government is systematically destroying India's secular democracy and turning the country into a racist Hindu state.
He further said that about 250 million Muslims in India have become an oppressed minority. India's extremist leaders are more determined than ever to lead the country on a horrific path of hatred, fear and bloodshed.
