5·11 months agoIt’s an Indian parody comic called “Adarsh baalak” (translation: Ideal child). It parodies posters that you would see in Indian classrooms in the 20th century.
That’s a Falun Gong symbol. The swastika is largely not a political symbol in India. You will see the swastika over just about every Hindu house’s door and in temples.
The main Hindutva symbols are a lotus and the color Saffron. Some will invoke the god Rama infront of minorities to provoke them. There have been instances of some reactionaries shouting “jai Shri Ram” in front of Muslims or forcing Muslims to say that. And of course, there is the Ram temple controversy in Ayodhya, which propelled the BJP to power in the first place.
Another symbol is a bulldozer because the BJP bulldozes the homes of any Muslim who opposes them.
