Prejudiced
by Vaibhav Pradhan on Nov 16, 2007 11:48 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

I wonder when they mention Gujarat riots as blot on the nation, why don't they mention more prominent blots like persecution of Hindus in Kashmir and North East, parliament attack, Akshardham attack, 1992 mumbai blasts, 2006 mumbai blasts, Vaishnodevi attack, Koimbtore blasts etc etc. I mean, they need not list everything but can certainly mention it. This makes me wonder about their motives. Or, its blot on India ONLY if something happens to minority and its no big deal if something happens to majority. I honestly think that this kind of journalism is real blot on Indian democracy!

The riots in delhi which resulted in the killing of innocent sikhs,Gujarat and Nandigram were government sponsored.Hence it is perceived to be more dangerous than terrorist attacks.

The riots are just perceived only and not proved that it was by government...but the terrorist attacks are proved as when it happened..why is press not pointing them and the riots they are talking about are reaction to the terrorist attacks and i strongly agree that this action also follows the newton's law action and reaction are equal and opposite and it is correct
