We are happy to announce that eleven years after introducing a formal request for Hinduism to be recognized by the Belgian Government and eight years after our formal request for a subsidy for Hindu Forum of Belgium, the Belgian Parliament has voted on 11 January, 2024, to grant the Hindu Forum of Belgium a subsidy, which is the first step towards recognition of Hinduism in Belgium.
Mister Dufour informed us that from HFB side we have been very diligent by filling in all the documents and by giving all the required information. This was later confirmed by Minister Geens. He suggested to us to continue to continue meeting different political parties in the autumn. Mr Dufour mentions that the HFB should become more professional and therefore they are intending to grant us the requested subsidy.
