In June, the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom convened a hearing on the communal violence in Gujarat and the US response to it. Among those who testified was Robert M. Hathaway, director of the Asia Programme at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, Washington, DC, who demanded an inquiry into fund-raising activities in the US by groups implicated in the Gujarat violence. Excerpts from an interview:
In your testimony you asked the commission to recommend an inquiry into fund-raising activities in the US by groups implicated in the Gujarat violence. Do you have specific groups in mind?
It is widely alleged here that some of this money was used to foment violence in Gujarat. Is there any way to establish this?
How do these groups raise funds?
Are donors aware of where their money is going?
Have fund-raising activities picked up since the BJP came to power?
