I was born in old Delhi and lived there upto 1991. I spent my 42 years there. All hindus and muslims live together in peace and whatever differences are there are only periodic and forced by politicians. We used to have kite flying competition every Sunday and in the evening all would sit together to have 'Chai Pani'. We never thought of any discrimination. We loved to go to Karim, Jawahar and other Muslim restaurants regularly and there was not even the slightest hatred against anybody. We had witnessed many Communal clashes but there was hardly any serious injuries to anyone. That reminds me of Javed Akhtar, who reportedly said during an election meeting in Chandni Chowk that we BJP is voted to power, they will convert Delhi into Gujrat. He is not aware of the fact that Hindus by and large are peace loving and do not carry any hatred towards any community, it is only when a section of people provoked by diry politicians, indulge in unwarranted activities.
