We need more Modis for betterment of India at present and in Future. Religion and politics should not be mixed but we need to leave with legacy of Briton Britishers who planted the seed and Indian britishers(post independt congress offcours) who watered this and always kept it alive to use religion and communal divides to remain in power for long. The reservations were meant to be temporary system to lift the poor and earlier neglected peole. But now it has become permanent and day by day increasing.Why?? ofcourse to get political milage. If partion was done based on Religion and a seperate state for Muslim created then what is wrong in Majority Indians who are Hindus to rule and control our country. We Hindu always believe in treating all human equally(Even any true follower of any religion must believe the same) and have not gone to the above extent of demanding a Hindu rule as we are Secular Country. This does not mean you do whatever you want in name of religion and cry of minority descrimination. Go to Gujarat ask any Human being from any religion(true ones and not the fanatics) and they will agree that there is overall development, progress, peace, goverment machinery working at it best, reduction in corruption( "I do not eat and do not allow other to eat above what they should get!!" who said this...NM).What else we want!!! SO RISE INDIANS, KEEP RELIGION AWAY from politics. Find few more Modis and give them reign for peace and progress and bright future
Most of the English Journalists are educated in Convent schools-where Christianity is force fed. As it happens in the convents, female reporters are restricted from sporting Bindi on their fore head. They are exposed to case studies and lessons that decry India and Hinduism in journalism schools and media houses. Therefore they have a fixed anti Hindu prism in their reporting. It is combined with elite and class arrogance that makes them reject the grassroots leaders like Modi, Lalu, Yadhav, Mayavati, Uma Bharati, etc. They are relatively OK with urbane, suave and elite leaders like Chandra Babu, Navin Patnaik, Vasundara Raje, Sheila Dixit. Recently a reputed journalist of NDTV was asking Arun Jaitley how could an urban suave person like you become friend of Narendra Modi?. It doesnt take Sonia to task for Muslim appeasement-such as Ram dont exist affidavit, Taslima ill treatment, 15% planning allocation, etc. Sonia says something sensational and half a dozen of her spoke persons come give varied explanations appealing to different vote banks. Media doesnt have the fire to challenge Sonia hit and run politics. Because MEDIA PERSONS WORSHIP HER WHITE SKIN & ITALIAN ORIGINS.
This is really funny.Winning a skirmish & acting like you've won the war is hilarious to say the least!Even jayalalitha won a couple of elections & thought she was going to be the next PM.So thinks Deva Gowda too!!!lol.
The author points that Secular fundamentalism leads to hindu fundamentalism and therefore islamic fundamentalism. Fundamentalism has been around mankind from about 786 A.D for sure. IF BJP is the epitome of hindu fundamentalism, it did start taking life ( 2 seats nationwide in 84) until indian version of islamic terror in kashmir.
So you should say, islamic fundamentalism gave rise to whatever "ideology/hatred" you want to call Prakash khan, ChinaRam yec-hury, maino, Raul Maino, that jerk in TN, RajJhoot Sardesai and ayesha ghosh,IUML, MIM,TMMK,SIMI, CPI(Muslim).
But the rise of this hatred has resulted in secular fundamentalism, so all the religions are treated one the same level.
BTW, there are no causes for islamic fundamentalism. It has introduced that way. Dont confuse the humanism( natural to all human beings) with the religion. A majority of the people who practice it are good people because they are humans and not because of some peaceful ideology. The violence comes because of the ideology that some of the muslims subscribe to
Every dog has its day. So is the case with modi. But this does'nt mean that every day will be the dog's !!India is a very big country and all indians are not gujaratis!So keep up the joy guys 'cause thisis not gonna last long!

The whole of India may not be Gujarat, and it may not be able to convert all Indians to the Aryan way of thinking by violence. But slow propaganda is a sure way to acheiving some such thing. Don't you see that the Southern Indian states have started on most of the shameless Aryan vices including female infanticide and female feoticide. Slowly it is spreading to the most Indian parts of India, even Chhattisgarh. Nobody can protect the Indians from shameless Aryanism any more, and please do not attribute this to Modi. Probably ISSCON and Ekta Kapoor have been more successful in doing what Modi and his goon couldn't.

I do not want to call you by your fake name because 'Prabhakaran' is the name of a great warrior who is challenging the might of a nation with just a tiny bunch of warriors.So Mr Doggie,don't mess up with tamilians or else you'll have to run for cover as you did in TN a few months back!BTW why don't you go & wag your tail elsewhere?lol.
Sikhs getting slaughered in thousands = A MISTAKE. Hindus getting killed in Kashmir = Political problem. Muslims getting killed by a few hundred = Holocaust. Poor protestors getting shot in WB under Left Govt = Misunderstanding. Banning Parzania in Gujarat = Communal. Banning Da Vinci Code and Jo Bole So Nihaal = Secular. Kargil Attack = Government failure. Chinese invasion in 1962 = Unfortunate betrayal. Reservations in every school and college on caste lines = Secular Reservations in Minority institutions = Communal. Fake encounters in Gujarat [Sohrabuddin] = BJP Communalism. Fake encounters under Cong-NCP in Maharashtra [Khwaja Younus] = Police atrocity. Talking about Hindus and Hinduism appeasment = Communal Talking about Muslims and Islam = Secular. BJP freeing 3 terrorists to save 100 Indian hostages = Shameful Congress freeing 4 militants to save just a life of one daughter of it minister in Kashmir [Rubina Sayed] = Natural Political dilemma. Attack on Parliament = BJP ineptitude Not hanging Afzal Guru the mastermind despite Supreme Court orders = Humanity and Political dilemma. BJP questioning Islam = Communal. Congress questioning Lord Rama existance = Clerical Error. Is there any end to Congress and it shameless supporters hypocrisy
My dear friend-a great analyses made ,but the message flowing in from most parts of article convey-lopsided state of thoght process.It looks journalistic and short of vision,not beyond plethora of common words like Secularism and high sounding terms.It is to solicit your attention to read in between the lines of Indian Democracy.An effort seems being made,but often driven to popular conclusions.Indian democracy is hardly a party driven,but individuals who are able to manage or manipulate call the shots and wrest power.Tug of war in parties,bureaucrats,ideologies always remained symbolic.Statisticians,Poll masters and analysts have repeatedly missed to count on individual`s capability to garner and win as against party and ideology.The key result areas- like performance,etc as rightly given in the article wlll surely make difference in times to come.Intensity of factors governing the mindset varies with time.Fundamentalism or nofundamentalism cannot drive all the times-This is well learnt.So there is no fear on that account.At the same time-a balanced set of democratic practices kept Congress in power for a long time.When they apprehended,loosing their grip,they lost balance.And made most mistakes.Public at large is becoming mature.Politicians for power are surely making them intelligent and lncreasing literacy will further enrich the system.Bogey of Secularism,Communalism or communism or Hinduism or Islam or Christianity can not stay,because weare all turning wise.

Life is God. Every developed country in the world is secular & disciplined and follows 'Uniform Civil Code'. Religion is One. It is the development of the Body & Mind. Rest are all lies and mockery and manipulation of the emotions and brains of people. Spend more time in Science, Technology, Art, Music, Sports and build economies around these for Humans & Infrastructure around these activities. Organized religion is organized madness. Just limit to Human Mind and Human Body and Human Values for Human & Gender -- Equality & Unity. The Sanskrit word - Artha means both money & meaning for Life. The Buddhist concept of 'Sangha' is also that of communism! Hence, meaningful capitalism & communism is part of humanism (which is also part of real hinduism).
