The author says 1. " People might say: 'OK, this is all true, Aurangzeb was indeed a monster, but why rake up the past, when we have tensions between Muslims and Hindus today?'" 2.The argument that looking at one's history will pit a community against the other does not hold either;
3. Let Hindus and Muslims then come to terms with what happened under Aurangzeb, because Muslims suffered as much as Hindus.
But one look at the message board, where people baying for each other's intellectual blood surely says a lot.
Inspite of being in the media for so long, the author fails to recognize that people have not moved on. Everyday hatred is being stoked, right in our throats.
The Firangi has done it once again : Divide and Rule. For sure crossing one community with other, brings a lot of Good.
