Looking at the larger picture, a dangerous trend is emerging in India these days : mobs taking control frequently with no fear of the law!! Gujjars in Rajasthan, Sikhs last week in Punjab, Dinakaran office in Madurai, Dalit killings incident and the the riots that followed in Nagpur...the list simply goes on.
The pattern is clear : all these violent agitations are mainly implemented by common men. People like you and me. Even though they are caught on camera, they know nothing will happen to them. Penetration of modern media, cell phones, etc has also helped in uniting such mobs.
We'll soon get into a civil war like situation if the law and order machine of this country is not corrected soon. No other country in the world mut be having so many sub-sections in their societies, languages, regions, etc.
We are a country faced with extra-ordinary problems but some very ordinary governments.
Violence, no matter what the cause might be, should not be tolerated.

I like to share a good idea :- Government should appoint these agitators in Police, aur police to bana do watchmans. Koi panga nahi.

In my opinion every caste in India should demand themselve to be convetered to SC then India goverment will reserve 100% for SC. Hows that?

In the era of instant mobile communication and 24x7 news channels, news and rumours can spread at a rapid pace evoking spontaneous outburst of emotions and stroke tensions. It has a direct and causal correlation with the rise of the right and the increasing popularity of rabble rousers. If you promote hate, you can almost to certain that the same hate will boomerang to consume you. India has moved from being a democracy to mobocracy thanks to Bharat Jalao Party little saffron experiments in different parts the country. It is time for the ch*ddis to introspect and temper their agendas for the sake of the survival of this country. Just look at the hate unleashed by their supporters on these boards, it is unbelievable how much they have been brainwashed in those shakas.
