The poor oppressed Christians... /s
Christianity in India is a super small minority, and a large number of Christians are descendants of people from marginalized communities, who converted to escape persecution by 'upper caste' Hindus.
Regardless of whether one agrees with the ideas of Christianity is irrelevant here. This is an attack by a militant offshoot of a Hindu-supremacist political party, which has been in power for two terms now. Very 1930s Germany vibes here.
RSS, the ideological parent of Hindu supremacism, was modeled on fascism & Nazism.
