Good morning wonderful people! How much do you know about the VHP-America? Buckle-up.
The VHP heads one of the major wings of the Sangh Parivar (family of Hindu nationalist groups headed by the paramilitary RSS). The VHP oversees religious affairs.

Many of the big Sangh groups have parallels in American and the US, often sharing a near exact name.
So, we have the VHP in India and the VHP-American in the US.
In India, the VHP is violent. So violent that the American CIA has flagged it as militant.

The VHP-A was the first Hindutva group formally established on American soil. This is unusual. More commonly, the HSS leads (because the HSS is the RSS overseas).
Why did the VHP establish a US-based group first? Maybe a nod to American religiosity? Hindutva adapts to contexts.
