Open Letter to Azam Khan

To Mr Azam Khan,

I am glad that you are aware of the miserable condition of Muslims in India and Uttar Pradesh (a state ruled by your party). This also arouses confidence in me that you are capable of taking criticism not like before when you jailed somebody for a facebook post. Your letter to UN general secretary Ben Ki Moon have made you a great man by admitting you failure in doing nothing for Muslims in UP the state your party is currently ruling and have also ruled in the past. 

You have admitted through this letter to UN that your government have provided all favorable conditions for the growth of communal and hate related politics. If you are aware that Rashtriya Swayam- Sewak Sang (RSS) is filling hatred and intolerance in the Hindu youth then why your government letting them do this freely. If government machinery was as capable as in the case of your lost buffaloes then such incidents would be avoided. It was not a long time ago that Muzaffarnagar riots jolted your state but the courage of Sangeet Som in spilling hate speech again shows your government’s incompetency in dealing with fringe elements in the society.

Mr Azam Khan it is true that some people dividing the country on religious line and Prime Minister's silence have worsen the situation but this in no way justify your action of writing a letter to UN an organization which itself is a tool at the hands of some developed nation to turn the world on their side. UN has done nothing for Rohangiya Muslims of Burma, Muslims of Syria and Palestine and you know they have no role to play here in India. You have played a political card which further fueled the fire of communal tension between the people of both the communities. You have presented 18% Muslims of India in bad light as if they don’t believe in the law of the land and brotherhood of Hindu and Muslims.

Muslim leaders like you have just used them for your political gains and their deplorable state in Uttar Pradesh is a proof of that. The hate mongers have succeeded in Dadri lynching, the political leaders have also gained considerably by blaming each other for that but the real issue remained as it is i.e. the lost of trust between the communities. I have full faith in Indian values, both the communities have faced tough time together in this country and they know how to come out from such a situation. Mr Azam Khan neither you nor UN nor any Sangeet Som can dictate them how to behave.

In the end I would like to quote son of Mohammad Akhlaq (the man who lynched by mob in Dadri village of Gautam Budh Nagar of Uttar Pradesh) from the show We The People by Barkha Dutt on NDTV 24X7, he said 'Mazhab Nahin Sikhata Aapas Mein Bair Rakhna Hindi Hain Hum Watan Hai Hindustan Hamara,' 'I have full faith in law and people of the country' he added in the end which shows the true spirit of India. Jai Hind!

The Rise of The Indian Taliban

The Rise of The Indian Taliban

Family of Mohammad Akhlaq

If we were against Taliban and their atrocities in Afghanistan then we must raise our voices against the emergence of the same in India the country known in the world for peace and humility. The new trend of curbing rational and scientific thinking evident from the murders of rational thinker M.M. Kalburgi and Narender Dhobalkar. Bans of different kinds to restrain freedom of people. Killing or abusing of people who speak against any wrongdoing. Confining women to homes. These are all signs of the rise of Indian Taliban i.e the group of fanatics which think what they are doing is right and every one must follow their will.

These groups are dividing society on the basis of religion to spread their agenda by creating animosity between the communities. Recent public lynching of Mohammad Akhlaq in Dadri village of UP for alleged possession of beef which was not even banned in the state and killing of a Muslim youth in Kanpur area by projecting him as a Pakistani terrorist confirms the reach of Hindu fanatics in the interiors of our villages. Since the time Modi government has came in power such incidents have increased drastically, groups claiming them as torch bearer of Indian culture beat Muslim youths seen talking to Hindu girls, they don't allow them entry in Garba and other such celebrations which are breaking 'Ganga-Jamuni' culture of India to intermingle in each other's festivals. Hindu dominated societies deny flats to Muslims, some companies inclined to their thinking don't give jobs to Muslims. This have never happened in the country so openly before, a trend which is a threat to India's unity.  

Below is the table showing trend of the rise of The Indian Taliban : 

DICTATE OF AFGHANI TALIBAN ·         Eat according to Islamic beliefs. (Pork Ban, Liquor Ban) ·         Women should not study, work, should remain covered. ·         Religious education of Quran and other Muslim scriptures. ·         Other faiths not allowed. ·         Attacks on people of other religion and destroying their religious places.(Destructions of ancient Jain temples) ·         Western education and traditions is state enemy.(Attack on Malala Yusufzai) ·         Public lynching of offender.

DICTATE OF INDIAN TALIBAN ·         Eat according to Hindu beliefs. (Beef ban, meat ban) ·         Women should not work (leads to male unemployment – Chattisgarh text book) , Should keep long hairs. ·         Religious education of Geeta, Vedas and other ancient Hindu scriptures. ·         Other faiths need Ghar Wapsi. ·         Attacks on people of other religion and destroying their religious places. ( Church attack in Haryana,W.B, mosque attacked in U.P, Bihar. ·         Western culture against our tradition. ·         Public lynching of offender.

Uttar Pradesh is witnessing highest number of communal clash cases, riots incidents and hate crimes. Akhilesh Yadav's failure in curbing these incidents is an open secret, Mulayam Singh Yadav's sudden soft heart for Narender Modi and then allowing of communal clashes in the state I think have something to do with CBI inquiry scheduled against him. Whatever be the reason but the common people are facing the burnt of this fire. The victims of riots are not limited to people of Muslim or any other minority community but poor people of all religions suffers its brutality. 

The spread of fanaticism of any kind is injurious to the health for a progressive society. These fanatics bring the rocks of culture,tradition and religion in the way of development by limiting our thought processes and thus cutting our wings of free thinking. A strong action is required against these forces and when we have Prime Minister who believes that communal-ism is poison for society, I hope for a strong and effective action against these incidents. I also wants to appeal to the people of all  the communities to not give your ears to the rumors by hate mongers. Whatsapp and facebook are good to connect with friends but these days they are used mostly to spread hate messages which you must avoid to send further for the development and betterment of the nation.
