According to the news
reports published on Sunday, 14.04.19, Arwind Kejrival, addressing the public
meeting in Goa at Margao, openly said
that if we the voters bring back the BJP to power again, it will be the most
disastrous decision of the voters because by grabbing the power back the BJP
government will amend the Constitution to suit BJP’s purpose to make India a
Hindu Raj just as we have in Gulf and Pakistan the Theocratic States. Though it
is not easy to amend the Constitution yet BJP is having in its ranks some of
the fanatic Hindus whose only motto is to turn India into a communal. These
fanatic communal Hindus are not interested in the development of India nor they
want India to be a metropolitan society, they want India to be a closed door
society. These are the Hindu fanatics
who like fanatic Muslims devided one undevided India into pieces. It was not people like us secular minded who devided India by creating a partition to
have two States India and Pakistan but these BJP
type of people. They have no love for
India, its culture, tradition and
history but they have love for Hinduism only in which they believe and for
which they will give their life.
Said Ghandiji once
displaying his fear over Hinduism: “If
Islam is uprooted from India it will develop and survive elsewhere but if Hinduism
is uprooted from India it will disappear from this planet”. But why so much of fear of Hinduism in
India when it is so well protected? Where are we heading by talking
on religious issue only? By
concentrating too much on religion we are slowing down our movement for the
development and progress of India. India
is a rich and vast country having enormous amount of resources of different
variety and by concentrating on it and how to make use of it for the benefit of
India and Indians, we could become the most powerful and richest country in the
world. But these Hindu fanatics are still in this century and in this millennium
too harping on glorifying Hinduism and thereby closing its doors to the
minorities and others such as Christians and Muslims will be the greatest cruelty on the part
of Hinduism. Is Hinduism preaches such
ferocious Hinduism like what Hitler promulgated in Nazi Germany where Jews were
brought to the sub-human level?
As for me I know Hinduism
is a broad minded religion but it is the narrow minded Hindus who created a bad
image India by trying to make India the land of Hindus only and also of Snakes.
For this reason, since centuries back, the West looked upon India as the land
of Snakes, Snakes charmers and backward Hindus.
Good that in the early stages India had gigantic men of the stature of Gandiji,
Nehru, Patel, Subash Chandra Bose, Rabindranath Tagore, Dr. Francisco Luis Gomes and many others who
indicated to the West that India is inhabited by great people and not by
tin-pots like fanatic Hindus.
In 1893 when the great sage of India, Swami
Vivekananda visited Chicago in the USA, representing India and Hinduism at the Parliament of the World's Religions where Delegates from all around the globe also assembled, he made a comment there in America saying “I come from
the land where we build Masjids and Churches along with Hindu Temples”.
Listening to this statement the entire West was surprised because earlier it had very
different opinion of India, that is, India means the land of Hindus only where
others are not allowed. By converting India as the land of Hindus only, will we be maintaining the legacy of India as stated by Swami Vivekananda? Are we proud of this legacy as disclosed by Swami Vivekananda?
It is time now for the
intellectual Hindus to raise their voices in unison to shut the mouths of communal voices
of fanatic Hindus.
