The conference marks the inauguration of Tawazun India, a Bengaluru-based think tank that focuses on "counter-extremism." Asif Iqbal, Honorary Consulate for the Republic of Suriname and co-founder of Tawazun India and Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche, the High Precious Buddhist Master, are among the gathering of intellectuals from around the world who will discuss the dangers of Islamism - “I want to demonstrate how the Islamist ideology is incompatible with Islam," said Iqbal.
