WHICH DIRECTION ARE WE HEADING? It is reported that the students of the Benares Hindu University have filed a FIR against the management for propagating RSS ideology via staging a play "Me Naturam Godse Boltoi" in the campus. The killer of the Mahatma is sought to be glorified with no restrictions. In Rajasthsn, the police could not gurantee safety of public to see movie Padmavat, permitting vandalism by the Karni Sena, setting fire to vehicles, throwing petrol bombs etc causing terror unchecked. However they are very competent in dealing firmly with farmers who are impoverished due nature and government farming policies . I saw Padmavat and it glorifies Rajput pride, states movie is fiction, does not promote Sati which was in vogue during that period and what is more had the stamp of the CBFC and even the Supreme Court! The police is active against poor defenceless farmers but will not act against goondas like Karni Sena who destroy property and terrorise people and the general public not in tune with sentiments/ideology of one section of our diverse nation? Wither our Constitution's: "We, the people of India ,having solemnly resolved to secure to all its citizens Justice, social,economic and political; Liberty of thought, expression, belief, faith and worship; Equality of status and of opportunity, and to promote among them all Fraternity, assuring the dignity of the individual and the unity and integrity of the nation". There is no room for intolerance and bullying mobs or destroying the unity and integrity of our nation by those in power! The world is keenly watching to see if we are a lawful, humane and spiritual nation that can be admired.
