Washington: The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), a well-known US space agency, shared photos of participants who had the opportunity to do internships with them. However, after the photo was shared by NASA, criticism began, as the participants also had a picture of Indian-American intern Pratima Roy. Roy's table shows statues of Hindu goddesses and photos of Hindu deities on the wall.

This piety of the statue enraged some intellectuals, because these intellectuals are not happy with the statue showing its devotion. He also questioned the 'scientific nature' of the statue. However, Pratima has earned an opportunity to do an internship with NASA because of her same scientific nature. Some have accused the NASA of ruining science and said that some said that why does a Hindu need to be surrounded by gods and goddesses? It is just a question of why a fish needs to be surrounded by water. The picture shared by NASA of intern Roy having statues, now a number of comments flooded clearly seal the existence of 'Hinduphobia'.

However, it is also certain that if a picture of a Christian or a Muslim person (displaying his religious identity) had been shared, there would never have been so much controversy. Hinduphobia and its effects on various institutions are constantly discussed. Its existence was denied many times, but Tulsi Gabard, a member of the American Congress, shared his experiences of Hinduphobia during his career.
