Do we see equivalent celebrations outside of India?

Answer 1

Anti-Semitism, in the broad sense of the term, refers to hostility towards Jews based on a combination of religious, racial, cultural and ethnic prejudices. [1] In a narrow sense, anti-Semitism refers to hostility towards Jews. Jews, defined as a race, not as a religious group, a modern conception that would have emerged in the mid-nineteenth century as a derivation of racism and nationalism, thus differentiating itself from the earlier "religious anti-Semitism" that some historians prefer to call anti-Judaism, [2] Whose most developed expression would be Christian anti-Judaism.

Anti-Semitism can manifest itself in many forms, such as individual hatred or discrimination, attacks by nucleated groups for that purpose, or even police or state violence.
