we urge president Obama to convey to Mr.Modi our concerns about escalating violence against india's christian minority. A few Hindu leaders of his coalition have also provoked concerns among many indian's, through their directives to Head of christian schools to install Hindu idols,forbid students to address catholic cleric-teachers as "fathers" but as "acharyas " etc.Mr. Modi recently ordered the renaming of christmas holiday as Good Governance Day.Mr.Modi remained silent when ever these issues were raised in parliament, as he did during the 2002 Godhra riots. We urge you to request Mr. Modi to condemn religious intolerance and break his silence on this critical issue.
