Bengali Muslims are finally protesting Mamata’s appeasement politics

Many English educated in India are left leaning and secular. But they will not stand for Muslims Or atheists  who oppose bad regressive practices of Muslims and Left/Secular politicians. And even won’t condemn criminal Muslims. But are vociferous if the crime is done against Muslims and it is a routine crime committed by normal villagers and attribute the crime to their Hindu sympathies See in this item what the author Taslima Nasreen describes secular Mamata and leftist Buddhadeva actions. https://theprint.in/opinion/sign-of-hope-bengali-muslims-are-finally-protesting-mamatas-appeasement-politics/256041/

A Congress supporter Secular Journalist’s suggestion for Congress

Advani’s BJP fought back after being reduced to 2 in 1984. Congress is fleeing with 52, leaving fight with Modi to activists, intellectuals, PIL warriors. https://theprint.in/national-interest/if-modi-is-viv-richards-congress-can-flee-or-set-deep-defensive-fields-like-england-wait/255913/

A Punjabi Philanthropist whom Pakistan.and India need to remember

People just remember politicians and do not remember builders of society. Modern English educated think Hindus do not have a record of Philanthropy or social service. They will routinely ignorantly just mention Mother Theresa and western Christian church related Philanthropy. https://www.dawn.com/news/1403799

An Example of crime when Muslims become a majority in an area.

Whether it is Pakistan or Bangladesh, or Kashmir or Bihar or Bengal if an area becomes Muslim majority this type of crime increases. It is not get properly reported. Governments want less of law and order problem discourage it to be reported and get reactionary response. Law and justice system simply can not protect. The educated elite sitting  in ivory towers of cities metros in India and world will not read and pay attention. The crime can not be attributed religion or ideology. But very easily same elite attribute to Hindu or Christian and ideology if the victims of a crime are Muslim. They will politicize it, internationalize it. If the societies in India, Europe or USA take any preventive steps they cry hoarse as right wing communal fascist. Yet they have no guts to condemn or voice against crimes of Muslims as for them it is important to be “secular” and be identified as communal. https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/2-women-assaulted-tonsured-for-resis...

Nehru is an Idol for some; but he is a human with faults

Nehru has made several contributions to India more after Independence; but at the time of independence he made many mistakes. One of the mistake is handling Kashmir. I hope his mistakes are now rectified ; Jammu and Ladakh folks are liberated. Kashmiri Pandits and Kashmiri muslims are well integrated in society in Kashmir valley itself. And refugees from POK get their rights in the state. https://m.rediff.com/news/report/shah-seeks-to-extend-prez-rule-in-j-k-for-6-months/20190628.htm

Secular discrimination in India against Hindu

“The Vellalur Nadu collective has been in existence for the past 500 years and about two lakh people from the 65 villages offer worship to the traditional deities,” said S Kurinji Kumaran, the Ambalathukarar of Samattikari village of the region, who has been ruling this cluster of villages for over 12 years now. https://swarajyamag.com/insta/tamil-nadu-over-two-lakh-people-of-65-villages-join-hands-to-stop-government-from-taking-over-their-temples

Politicization of random crime of Communal Secular

I thought let me not respond on this news shared in social  media. But then multiple people shared and commented in a similar tone. 1. Hate Crime should be condemned and I condemn. Police inaction/action resulting in deaths should be condemned 2. Crime should not be communalized, sensationalized in news  and  spread as creating social enmity. If this is done even local government asks, it only shows communal mindset of the  spreaders of news. 3. Let authorities and law do investigation and punish culprits. 4. Educated show mob mentality sitting in comfortably in far off places in passing judgements with out knowing the facts and hearing both sides. Jharkhand Minister and BJP leader C P Singh said “there is a trend prevalent these days to associate all such incidents with BJP, RSS, VHP and Bajrang Dal”. “It is a time of cut and paste… politicising such incidents is wrong,” Singh told ANI. https://indianexpress.com/article/india/jharkhand-lynching-as...

Mudar Patherya: Mamata is clearly talking of appeasement'

Read the interview of a Muslim writer of Cricket and Personal Finance by a Muslim journalist. In the wake of the attack on doctors and harassment of model Ushoshi Sengupta by some members of their community, a group of prominent Muslims from West Bengal wrote a letter to Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee asking for stringent action against the culprits, to dispel the 'perception' that they are being "shielded or appeased". https://m.rediff.com/news/interview/mamata-wants-to-appease-muslims-and-is-gutless/20190624.htm

Sorry for sad state affairs after 72 years of Independence

Is it difficult to have enough doctors? Is it difficult to provide proper nutrition? Can we do it? Is Modi govt increasing availability of doctors? Yes Do we have sufficient delivery mechanism  for basic nourishment for poor? Yes Do we have sufficient food and money resources for allocation to help poor? Yes. But we have to make that as our objective and work towards resolving https://theprint.in/india/governance/home-truths-behind-bihar-aes-deaths-one-doctor-for-28392-people-over-40-malnutrition/253493/

An Example of Hyderabad Citizen’s action

Read above news article about Hyderabad volunteer initiative to transform neighborhood. https://m.timesofindia.com/entertainment/telugu/movies/news/residents-of-seri-lingampally-rejoice-as-kudikunta-lake-springs-back-to-life-after-decades/amp_articleshow/62823141.cms I do not know how many will read above news article and even if read how many understand and will apply in life. The clogged, dried up lakes/water bodies in our cities is our problem as it is an artifact our modern life; papers, plastics, garbage thrown away gets collected in water ways, lakes. Do we need blame others? Will it help? Do we have govt staff for that? Even if we have are they sufficient? do we respect and appreciate so called municipal workers. Since it is costly to have permanent employees, some Palerla manager feudal landlords invented mechanism of ‘out sourcing’ to contractors, contractors engage poor daily wagers and exploit.
