why this fuss
by Suhaib on Aug 28, 2006 01:07 PM

I dont understand whats this fuss all about. this topic keeps creeping up after every 2 yeards. Whats the need for forcing the people to sing a song when its against their religion. At the end of the day its just a song and we are neglecting real issues like economic development, illiteracy etc by wasting the resourses and time on such petty matters.



I am a muslim and am against the recital of the song on the basis that its against the basic tenets of Islam but that doesnt make me any less patriotic. I am more concerned with the matters of development and the challenges which will change the face of the society in the decades to come. These politicians are only interested in vote bank and in the process they dont mind evading the real problems of the country.



It s time we wake up and take India to greater heights of development and prosperity rather than fighting over such non issues.
