RE:Don't cry for India Mr.Gautier
by Shailesh Tupe on Aug 02, 2006 02:25 PM

Dear sgpal,
You have misunderstood me. Nobody is brahmin, dalit or even Hindu or Muslim at the time of birth, it is social conditioning that gives a child a label so it is not a child's fault that it is born in a brahmin, dalit or a family following particular religion. Hence when they grow up they should not be punished for a Society's guilt. It is a shame that Government,such a high authority, plays with the feelings of young people on the basis of caste.
In a hindu majority secular state we are too soft and self critical. We have encouraged casteism within Hindu hold and have targeted brahmins for political reasons that's why I suggested that brahmins should convert en mass to a foreign religion as a retaliation (which will never happen). I don't beleive in tissue paper culture, 'Pani ka lota' is fine with me.
Thanks.
