Let us not blame the whole religion for an act of an individual

Arrest of Sadhvi Pragya in Malegaon bomb blast of 29th Sept. is a watershed moment of Indian socio-political life.

Hindu ideologues will have to redefine their ideas of patriotism where in the name of hardcore nationalism sheer hatred has been spread against other religious communities. Also after each terrorist attack BJP will have to think twice before dragging any specific community in it.

Terrorism does not have a religion and terrorist don’t belong to any community .It is a fact. But Sangh Pariwar never agreed to this. Rather they always engaged themselves in running a campaign that- ‘All the Muslims are not terrorists but why it is so that all the terrorists are found to be Muslims?’

Now the fact is Mumbai ATS has arrested 11 people in the context of Malegaon blast conspiracy. All of them are Hindu. What would be the argument of Sangh Pariwar now? Does it mean all the Hindus are terrorists?

As a matter of fact I strongly object to the terminology being usually used in public discourse as Hindu terrorist or Muslim terrorist. Let us not blame the whole religion for an act of an individual. Anybody who has faith in any religion can not think of killing someone. But at the same time I do accept the fact that hardliners do exist in our society in every phase of our history but all of them were never necessarily a terrorist.

Do you agree?

    Yes make perfect sense... terrorism is more about money and craze for power than any religion...

  2. I do not agree on your Rahul Mahajan and Big boss bashing. You take no dearth to show Big boss was a useless show and Rahul Mahajan is a good for nothing. Though the public evicted you out in the first week and Rahul won atleast five times. Either you are trying to say that people who watch big boss are useless. What ever we saw you is in Big boss only , other wise you were only a regional figure. Atleast be grateful to big boss that people came to know you and appreciate Rahul's popularity like a true winner

  3. Hi ,
    Wining of Ashu again made it clear that " Big Boss" is just a planned and cunning show to do business , nothing else. Ashu not won because he got votes, he won because the channel thought it more easy to sell his win. Showing how a common man, a poor fellow can get 1 crore here. But ashu is neither poor nor common. He was already enjoying a celebrity status even before joining the show. He is a a money lender, a recovery agent and a good goon. Promoting win of such person simply means we are promoting lawless, immorality, street language, cheap personality, pretenders, and illustrates.

  4. Dear Ramesh,

    I appreciate your opinion on Bigg Boss and Rahul Mahajan. It is a democratic country and every body has the right to think and opine in a free manner.
    The Bigg Boss voting system was not transparent and they never divulged the voting polls to the evicted contestants. This was my point of argument always.
    And in terms on me being a regional leader, I don’t want to question your knowledge but I have been a member of parliament for 10 years and have worked on various issues for the country. I would appreciate if you would do correct research about the matter or person before presenting your thoughts.

    Thank you for posting a comment

  6. Hello Mr.Sanjay saahab;
    Very nicely & correctly metioned by you. Terrorism is sponsored by power hungry & money minded people from any community.It is very shallow thinking.
