In a landmark step towards protecting religious freedom, the U.S. State of Georgia has introduced legislation to recognize and penalize Hinduphobia and anti-Hindu bias. Senate Bill 375, introduced by State Senator Shawn Still, aims to add enhanced penalties for hate crimes specifically targeting individuals of the Hindu faith. This historic move marks one of the first efforts in the United States to formally address rising concerns over discrimination and violence against the Hindu community.
