Its very sad to see you people talk about votes, vote banks and politics when people have lost their lives. Terrorism does not have a religion. REad the list of the deceased. Muslims and Hindus together were killed in the blasts. Both are affected. Every Hyderabadi including myself is shocked beyond belief, every Indian is moved at this event. Time now is to rise above political leanings and for the security forces to strengthen our country by bringing the real perpetrators of this heinious crime to book. Pointing fingers at a community or people or individuals who might have nothing to do with this, will be the biggest downfall, becasue that will keep loose the real terrorist out in teh street. Until the real terrorist are caught, there is another event watiing to occur, in a Mosque, temple or public place, where you and I go. OUr kids go. Our mothes and fathers go. Tehre is no place that is safe until the real perpetrators are caught and their motives brought to light. We are all affects Muslims/Hindus/Christians/ eveyr indian is affected and every hyderabadi is mourning. Stop that hate and stop the bias. Do something constructive - bring hearts and minds together. Stop the divide. Its high time we did this.

hey u Hindustani, You sound like a true "secular politician" what doe you mean by doing something constructive? If you're addressing the majority community, you're wasting your breath. What've the majority community done wrong/ they've given more than a spl status to the minorities (3 muslim presidents, 1 sikh PM, 1 catholic leader of the ruling party) apart from being mute spectators to the complete annhilation of "Kashmiri Pundits", subsidising 'trips to haj' from the national exchequer's funds, having scores of ministers, mlas, CMs, and others from the minority communities in the seats of power, sports, moviedom in short everywhere. tell me which other country in the world do minorities enjoy such benefits? the haj yatra is not subsidised in Pakistan as well!!

I address my fellow country men and belive you me, I am not a politcian from any angle, jsut a concerned citizen jsut as you are. AGain my address is to ALL INDIANS not to any community majority or minority. We need to rise above the minority and majority rhetoric and create opportunities and justice for every individual - an equal opportunity in all fields. You speak again with bias when you pick and choose the thing of your choice, while failing to explain the babri masjid demolition or the gujarat /Bombay riots and innumerable instances such as that. Im not listing them in a biased manner but merely responding to your list.Making a few presidents and name sake individuals does not serve any purpose. What India needs is equal opportunity for all, based on what they can do, not who they belong to where they come from or what political inclination they might have. India's strenght lies in its diversity. People who are bent upon ghetoization of a community will not make India strong. What is needed is for all people to walk hand in hand to make India strong from outside and inside. Can't stress this enough. Who the heck cares about what happens in other countries, I dont have an iota of support for Pakistan. I did not have anything to do with it, nor will I ever do. Why do you alwys bring that countires name up. Screw them. Lets talk about our country and our citizens and what we can do to improve our lives. Lets stop the bias and hatred. Stop the cycle of hate. Jai Hind.

Hindustani- why is the so oft heard statement "Create equal opputunities" you mean to say in a democracy do we have it any other way? 40 students/ XII th. std. class x 4 divisions= 160 students. All of them without exection know that the top 5 wud get admission in professional degree courses which wud result in better career. 5 of them do score the highest marks, they do get admission in professional courses of their chioce and get good jobs and do well in life. so you mean to say the system was unjust to the rest of the 155 who cud'nt do as well? Or do you suggest thgat govt./ system shud give equal marks to everyone, who all become Drs. or software engineers & then what happens? Medicrocy; thats exactly what the communists did and see where are they (Russia already crumbled, China quickly learnt a lesson & have gone the capital's way, Cuba & N. Korea, W. bengal & Kerala have taken an ostrich approach are yet to learn anything. the minority community doesn't want to get into the mainstream, want to continue to be ghettoised, want to be influenced by the 'mullas' and shout anti- American slogans at the drop of the hat, want to send their children to madrassas, dont want their children to sing "Vande mataram" (its anti-islamic they say; as if someone 100 yrs ago knew there wud be a certain Bankimchandra Chatterjee in the 20th century who wud pen these lines and all loyalists must not sing the same). Cheer pakistan in any India-Pak match, knowing very well that an avg Indian ha

what do you mean by equal oppurtunity ? you know its a level playing field in India more so now in the modern era than it has ever been. We have indeed a true democracy at work here. Don't say it from your mouth. Feel, my friend, Feel like this is really your motherland and then you won't talk about equal oppurtunities from a religious standpoint anymore. What kind of other equal oppurutunities are you talking about ? Your muslim people hook each other up and dominate any area they gain a foothold is a well known fact. they won't tolerate any more non muslims after that point. take the instance of movies nowadays. how the power shift is happening. You know in your heart that everyone has equal oppurtunity in this bharata bhumi probably more than is good for us. You know muslims in India are much better off than 95% of muslim countries out there ? Go outside and live there and come back and tell me.
Ok what can you do to unite the country and stem the voilence ? Go to the members of your community and preach to them. Tell them it is haraam to spit at one's own mother and motherland. it's haraam to be unpatriotic to the motherland that feeds you and take good care of you. ( if a few hindus are being intolerant, then confront them by all means, but don't become a motherland hating slave.) Also tell them it is Haraam in God's true book ( not books written by character less individuals) to call your fellow countrymen and brethern as Kafirs and hate and mistrust them.

Cheer pakistan in any India-Pak match, knowing very well that an avg Indian hates a paki for what's been done for the past 60 yrs. You do all this and still think that there's no level playing field? How do explain the success of some hard working intelligent muslims? APJ, Zaheer Khan, Sania, Aamir Khan, Javed Akhtar, Azim Premji...? You wud rather side the palistinian cause than side the Israelis who are of utmost importance to us aginst the war of terror. They've not only given us technology to fight terrorists but also have taught us how to grow crops in barren fields of Gujarat & Rajasthan
