A 'hate crime' hotline is to be set up following reports of an increasing number of attacks against Hindus, it was disclosed today.
The service will encourage the British Hindu community to report race hate incidents to the police and will provide support to victims. The hotline, due to start later this year, has been modelled on the Muslim Youth Helpline.
