Citizens for Justice and Peace
Citizens for Justice and Peace (CJP) was founded on the constitutional values of harmony, dialogue, and understanding between all sections of Indians. Our Hate Hatao campaign against hatred and hate speech is an effort to bring to account those who seek to divide Indian society along arbitrary lines for the sake of personal and political gain. Here we identify instances of hate speech as well hate offenders and serial hate offenders i.e people who routinely abuse their power to make statements that are not only hateful, but also capable of inciting violence.
