The positions taken by Deepak and Salim is problematic according to me. First of all why should the state be very "concerned" about a citizen when s/he does not create any sort of panic to the place s/he lives.I also feel that Muslims as an identity itself is globally threatened and are really insecure and made it to feel that way and really it is being hard for them to live with digiity. I think this type of unwanted interruption and caution by the state force.
An incident happened to me in the Pune railway station recently when I was hurrying to give my friends ticket where the police in mufty stopped me and questioned me surely suspecting me as a Muslim due to my appearance and this is really very dizzy in situation and make a community more vulnerable.
