It is sad that a person of the stature of Mr. Raman has written this piece. It speaks of his true colours.
Does this mean that Mr. Raman condones the part played by Modi in Gujarat carnage?
How do you define being Secular hindu - a hindu who is remorseless, who spews hatred towards others - Mr. Raman?
Does the end justifies means, Mr. Raman? Does development erases all the sorrows suffred by the people in the carnage, Mr. Raman?
On top of all this he quotes revered Bharati who wrote those words in a different context during freedom struugle asking youth to Join Mahatma in freedom struggle. Bharati would be turning in his grave to hear Raman's co- relation of his words to the political scenario - an apology to whatever Mahatma dreamed of.
Every party practices the same politics of hatred. Killing of Sikhs by Congress, Poor peasnts by communists is all the same as BJPs gujarat carnage.
The need of the hour Mr. Raman is not being proud of being Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Jain, Parsee etc., but being Humane and respect other humans.
