whats happening to India

I always thought Mumbai is one of the close-knit communities in India where different religions, cultures and languages live together peacefully. I cant believe Indians have started quibbling like this! I saw the videos in CNN-IBN and my god, they were really gruesome. These goons running into the streets, and slapping and kicking north-Indians, just because they look like different. We know what Gujarat riots did to the country, we dont need another one. Why people get swayed away by these cheap political tricks? I dont know what police and government are doing - India has the largest police force in the world and I am sure Mumbai owns a big chunck. What were they doing when this filth is happening? How come such molesters ride freely in the city doing what they wanted to - burning taxis, assaulting by-standers, etc. Until people stop getting tricked by these useless politicians and religious leaders, whose only motivation is divisive politics, there isnt much going to improve.
