A sound bite from "Hindus for Human Rights" in an article about a Hindu temple? Really? Would NBC go around looking for sound bites on Jewish issues from an organization called "Jews for Human Rights" run by virulent anti-semites?<p>This is typical of Western media reporting on Hindus and India. There can never be a single positive story about them without referring to snake charmers, sati, child marriage, toilets, hunger, poverty, caste, violence against minorities etc etc.<p>The ignorance about who Dalits actually are is par for the course. Dalits are not part of the traditional jati/varna classification. To use a now-English term for their status in society, they were complete "outcastes." This ignorance is more appalling because the reporter has a South Indian name. Looks like another thoroughly deracinated Indian.
