I believe in peace-I love & respect all religions whether it is hindus-muslims-christians-all communities have good as well as bad people-not to target one particular commmunity or religion-but the fact is if we dont have parties like shiv sena-VHP-RSS-Bajrang Dal or BJP then India would become afghanistan-pakistan-or any suffering muslim nation-only due to fear of these above parties-India is going very smoothly or else there wuld have been murders and insecurity everywhere though as an hindu I dont support any of these parties-but stil we are compelled to which is a fact. Now for eg.in gujarat-I dont think any non-hindus wil burn train or raise their head because they know there head wil be chopped off. We can control moderates not extremists-so for them such parties are required in India.

Dear Unni your argument suffers from serious errors in logic and assumption.
Your reasoning that the presence of parties like Shiv Sena and BJP is what keeps India sane from Islamic fanatics is erroneous.
If that was the case how would you explain India's existence before these parties. Or for that matter during numerous invasions by Muslim armies and for that matter a solid 200-year rule by the British. According to you theory India should have turned into Islamic nation and later a Christian nation due to recent British rule. None of them happened. India retains its integrating character as ever.
The fact is Shiv Sena and the BJP do not add up in the final count of what makes India. They are mere reactionary political entities. They are parties formed by opportunist politicians who hijack emotive issues to ride to power.
If BJP is serious on what it professes, it could roll the uniform civil code from day one it forms the government with help of alliances and sacrifice power and go to people. The reason they will never do it is because their priority lie in grabbing and keeping power as much as they can as any other party there is. You might give some thought over this.

It is not TRUE. They want to roll the uniform civil code, but they do not have majority and alliance parties may not support it.
A volunter group should emerge and try to convince Congress, and along with BJP support, get uniform civil code in place.
