  RE:HANEEF MAY BE INNOCENT!! BUT ISLAM IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE WHOLE EPISODE!!

The Hindu nationalist policies espoused by India's governing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its affiliate organizations undermined the country's historical commitment to secular democracy. Violence against Christian, Muslim, and Dalit, or "untouchable," populations was one result. Areas of separatist violence such as Kashmir and northeast India were marked by grave human rights abuses on the part of Indian security forces and armed rebel groups. Violence against women continued, from infanticide to dowry-related deaths to attacks on women whose male relatives were sought by the police. A major campaign on Dalit rights gathered strength, but some human rights defenders were targets of a state-sponsored backlash against their activism.

Activists belonging to militant Hindu extremist groups such as the Bajrang Dal and the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (World Hindu Council, VHP) were often blamed for the violence. Both groups are members of the sangh parivar, an umbrella Hindu organization that boasts the ruling BJP as its political wing. These Hindu groups blamed the violence on popular anger over Christian efforts to convert Hindus. While government officials at the state and central level condemned the attacks, they did little to prosecute those responsible.

On January 31 a year-long manhunt came to an end with the arrest in Orissa of Bajrang Dal activist Dara Singh. Singh was wanted in connection with several murders, including those of Australian missionary Graham Stuart Staines and his two sons in 1999. Christian relief at the arrest was tempered, however, by a state government order, believed to be aimed at limiting the activities of Christian missionaries, requiring a police inquiry before anyone adopted a new faith.

Hi Indian can u list the attrocities committed by these so called Hindu fanatics.. there are a very few and that is because of the outrageous acts of muslim fanatics who say that they should watch TV and release videos of people being beheaded.. dying old arabs marrying young Hyderabadi girls..people killing their family members for pride.. take all the bomb blasts from time that we have seen.. 3 times bombay blasts,swaminarayan mandir,hyderabad masjid blasts ,coimbatore blasts.. are only the very few that can be listed that are committed in the name of religion that has been miscontrued.. so sorry to see that UK bomb blasts were planned by group of doctors who were earning their lively hood and the ones who should be giving life to others.. so pity .. People have to change.. Honestly I do not know if It is the radical preachings of the few that inspire these people to kill the innocents that have done no harm..ultimately both EDUCATED and the uneducated religious fanatics are committing such acts.. I also have some of the best friends who are muslims who are not fanatics and infact never practise the religion and have married people from other religions.. so CHANGE has to be from within and the value of life should be known to these people..

Every religion has good and bad followers. no religion practices violence, and to claim any one religion is the only true faith is misleading. People faollow faiths in which they feel they have found the path to the truth, and each religion has methods of teaching people the 'right' way. Some feel their religion is the ONLY true religion, and this causes problems. We have seen this in the Christian, Hindu and Islamic followers, so to say one religion is superior is not quite correct.
