Muslims, Christians not minorities: RSS.....................???????

Dear Respected Indians,

Being an Indian Humanism is my religion and I believe in Secularism. Why speak of minority for only " ...The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh on Friday said Muslims and Christians in India cannot be treated as minorities as they have not come from outside the country." This is the same party asking for special reservation for a S C and S T ....... Why don't they remove this difference or not speak of other religious differences. Instead remove caste differences. Would be very pleased if they did this as they too are not minorities.........????

Can the R S S do this???? As they too are not from outside India..



Celeste

The SC and STs have been subjugated. The reservation is to enable them to catch up with rest of the country. Where I agree with you is that there should not be any reservations for the so called BCs. However, the muslims and Christians have never been subjugated. In fact, the Hindus were subjugated during the muslim and christian rule of India. So, if you consider yourself a muslim or a christian, you don't deserve any special treatment. If you consider yourself as an Indian, then you don't deserve any special treatment either.
