The Hindupobia Tracker database has been designed keeping in mind the complexities and variables of different kinds of religiously motivated crimes against Hindus - Here are some pointers to keep in mind while reading the database
You might have several questions - from why we chose to go with the 'Hinduphobia' and not 'Hindumisia' to why some cases like that of Shraddha Walker are not there in the hate crime database. These FAQs answer some of those questions
The main objective of descriptive research is to describe the data collected on the religiously motivated hate crimes against Hindus and define the characteristics of Hinduphobia which leads to the historic and ongoing persecution of Hindus. The research is undertaken with the aim of observing, recording, describing, and classifying religiously motivated hate crimes against Hindus and describing the serious implications of Hinduphobia.
Cases added as 'undecided' would not reflect in the hate crime database to ensure the authenticity of the database. These cases would appear in a separate database. In the future, if information confirming religious motivations of these crimes emerge, the case would be added to the hate crime database.
