Proving India's 'secular' credentials
by on Sep 16, 2007 06:42 PM

The Congress government is a threat to the majority community, and the sooner they are removed from power, the better.
Every second channel airs Christian evangelist programmes aimed at impressionable and troubled minds. Channels like God TV talk of the coming end of the world and the return of Jesus Christ to judge humanity. They also talk of the 'evil' secular culture and secular TV programmes in countries like the UK , the USA, and other Western countries, and also talk openly of changing governments which are opposed to Christian evangelism. They also unabashedly ask for money from people all over the world to meet the costs of running the 'God TV' channel and spreading the message of Christ (read conversion) across the globe. Millions of gullible Indians send 10s of 1000s of hard earned rupees to them, which they gleefully advertise.
All this while, the government turns a blind eye to them, and talk about maintaining
'secularism', communal harmony and the like. In addition, they announce reservations for Muslims and Christians to further establish their 'secular' credentials. Destroying a bridge or two, which has religious and sentimental value to a lot of Hindus is added for good measure.
We have a Sikh prime minister , a Roman Catholic Italian super prime minister, a Christian defence minister and a Sikh Chief of Army staff. Maybe more needs to be done to prove to America and the western world that India is indeed a secular country.
