Imagine this.
An entire generation of youth in India and across the world (including in American academia) were fed a fictional narrative about this fake individual- Fatima Sheikh, who never existed. 

A fictitious individual created just to bolster existing anti-Hindu tropes, and reinforce anti-Hindu narratives around the world. Wiki fell for it, Google fell for it. 

Pretty sure entire armies of “woke” academics got their PhDs based on this fake character.

Such is the power of hate.
