Sagarika Ghosh tweeted that Mr. Modi
performed Ganga Aarti and prayed at Kashi Vishwanath Temple, but failed to
visit Mosque. With this absurd and mischievous observation, she attempted
to suggest that Mr. Modi is not secular. How irrelevant and deliberately
inciting this observation is! If one belongs to a particular religion, he
cannot be branded communal. Being religious is not being communal.
Any person having faith in his religion would visit the shrine of his
faith to pay respects to the almighty for the success he received.
Thanking divinity is a personal practice of faith and is not an act of
communalism. Being religious is not being religion-neutral.
The peddlers of irrelevance could have also
taken objection to Mr. Modi's visit to his mother, immediately after the
success at polls. It is surprising they did not question his not visiting
a motherly person of Muslim faith or another faith. Submission to a
mother and practicing a faith, are matters of personal choice and culture and
have nothing to do with secularism or communalism. Highlighting one of these in
an irrelevant manner is a mischievous
exercise of creating an un-necessary opinion and rift in the country.
Two English news channels , time and again proven its alignment with
Congress and its elitist attitude, covered in mischief. When reporting on
Kashmir, they give undue importance to Mr. Lone and his divisive view points.
When debating the Naxal issue, they lionize Binayak Sen and his seditious
dogma. When analyzing the developmental needs, they groom Medha Patkar
and her western supported agenda of anti-development.
The
recent vote has marginalized the media created debate on secularism and
communalism as irrelevant. The majority of under-35 voters of India and
the surge of 100 million new voters in the country do not care for the Congress
peddled obsolete thoughts of casteism, secularism, communalism and the upper
caste Vs dalit debate. They know that Mr. Modi signifies the aspiration
of the country and its developmental needs, beyond such mischievous incitements . They know that
you are free to practice your religion and pursue your faith in this new order
of governance and society. They know that it is shameful to try and
derive two meanings from every word uttered or every action made.
Peddlers of irrelevant thoughts should know that the old baggage of
Congress ideas does not mean a thing to the new generation of India, whose only
demand is development. And Development is culture neutral, which brings
in social equality and an equal opportunity for life.

Start cleaning up Varanasi instead of wasting your time on Sagarika Goose.
ReplyDeleteAnd why bring Medha Patkar into every post of yours? It shows that she haunts you... Grow up boy...
Dont worry Varanasi will be cleaned. Better ask this question from Medha?
ReplyDeleteBy the way Phir Party badal di kya?
Dr Rajendra Prasad, the first President of the Republic of India, on assuming office, went to Benares and washed feet of 150 (?) Brahmans on the ghat of the Ganges in full public view. This had embarrassed the government; undermined the dignity of the republic and the relations between him and PM took down turn as a consequence.
ReplyDeleteWhen the PM designate Narendra Modi went Benares and did what is being discussed he has helped one particular section to earn huge money by showing photos and news report of this occasion.
He should this could desist from doing. This has nothing to do governance nor divine merit.
Bankim Chandra Chatterjee, who composed "Bande Mataram" said, religion is "devilish or demonic fiction."
I think those who are addicted to religion think over it coolly.
