Just few days ago, a truck mauled few people in
As you sow, so you reap!
Indian Hindus have continuously blamed one religion for all such incidents. Each time, an incident flared up, they blamed Islam, its books, and its prophet, and termed the religion to be innately violent. Such blame game doesn’t allow us to address the real problems. Indian Hindus have conveniently shirked the responsibility of owning up the problems as its own, and instead they have resorted to putting the blame entirely and squarely on one religion, Islam.
Most Indian Hindus believe that such violence and strife will not reach them. While they continue to foment and fuel the hatred which spawns more such violence, they believe they are immune to the consequences such as rioting, killing and pillage. The discontent, the frustrations, the disillusionments that we continue to foster in one religion or one region will come back to haunt us all. Give this another ten years, and what do we get? A civil war! It won’t spare us because we are locked up in our cozy homes. It will eventually knock our doors, and we will all pay the price.
Anyone who browsed through the three communal incidents would have noticed a common denominator in all three of them, which the author has tried hard to obfuscate.
ReplyDeleteMoreover, it is not just the benighted hindus and not just in India that this peaceful community is being terrorised by fascist and imperialist forces. It is the whole world that is up against this peaceful community in a grand show of conspiracy.
A wannabe intellectual has a very real dillemma to face here. Should he stick to the facts that are obvious to everyone and thus risk loosing the prospect of "intellectual" tag OR come up with grand explanations of events that make his theories look profound at any cost?
Linking, a riot started by a muslim mob over a truck accident to growing hindu militancy is a modest attempt by the author in the latter direction. Stay tuned for more!
Stay tuned for more!
ReplyDeleteYes! Stay tuned for more! More such flareups leading to a civil war!
What is your aim here Sujai? What are you trying to achieve - a civil war in India?
ReplyDeleteI guess the root cause of the incident can never be known. It will be lost in finger pointing. Muslims will blame Hindus and Hindus will blame muslims.
ReplyDeleteI have one big question in my mind...which only administration can answer. Still putting it here.
ReplyDeleteI saw this scene on News channel---
In agra 4 muslims were dead, muslim community got agitated and they started the violence.
Police came and was trying to take control of the situation, using lathicharge and other means.
Few people from other community (hindu) were standing by the side of police and were also pelting stones and other stuff on violent muslims.
WHICH LAW SAYS THAT IF MUSLIMS ARE ON RIOT AND POLICE IS TRYING TO STOP THEM, THEN HINDUS CAN PITCH IN AND DO STONE PELTING FROM POLICE SIDE.
IN NEUTRAL SECULAR WORLD POLICE SHOULD NOT ALLOW ANYONE (HINDU OR MUSLIM) TO dO THE SAME.
It is not good for the communal harmony of the country.
India is land of so many religions and people from all sects of religion have given their lifes and blood to make it soverign, independent state.

He also warned India that the liberation of the erstwhile state of Hyderabad was also on the JuD's agenda.
