It has been learnt from the news papers that in Mumbai VHP has filed a csae against Karunanaidhi the Tamilnadu Chief Minister for insulting Lord Ram by uttering insulting words that he was a drunkard and did not study engineering. The reaction of VHP was luke warm on this issue that was most outrageous. In fact, even in case of persecution of Kanchi Pontiff the reaction of Hindu elements was something down played. this was probably because of the court cases. But, can same thing happen to a Mullah in India and the Religious chief of Jama Maszid of Delhi? Any one will say dare not. During destruction of Bamiyan Buddhas by the mad mullahs of taliban, the respose of religious chief of Jama Maszid in Delhi was seditious when he said. the destruction ws in order and compared it to as a retalliation to babri maszid devastation. He escaped scot free and the central govt ignored him nad in fact had no courage to put him behind bars. Hindus always swallowed all types of insults when we look into pages of history. It was people like Tilak who atleast stood for Hindu faith. With death of Tilak, all types of opposition to MK Gandhi disappeared.The Pseudo secular policies have sold away the nation and even today same situation exists. A Hindu feels second rate citizen in India and some times people even hesitate to be identified with the temples and Hindu religion. Somanth temple was renovated after independence and tragedy is that Pandit Nehru was not happy because Dr Rajendra Prasad the first President of India took part in the inauguration of the most important temple of India that was devasted several times by Mohammed Ghaznavi of Kabul. It was not rebuilt after Aurangzeb destroyed during his reign. Is it wrong to be identified with ones religion by Hindus while Muslims in India can do? Why this discrimination? Karunanidhi being of DMK and being the supporting party to the central govt is being protected even after committing blasphemy. Any other person doing same thing against Islam and Christianity would have been behind bars by this time. This shows that India is based on pseudo secularism that is dividing the nation further. VHP has obviously failed to protect rights of Hindus for which it stands. Ram in his own land has been abused and the insults have been swallowed.How can this VHP build a Ram temple in India at Ayodhya? What a tragedy indeed?

Well, I read your most of the articles in your blog. Well written and much appreciated.
This article however is should have been written with maturity. If a hindu criticizes to another, why would you need to refer to Jama Masjid's Imam? or Islam? or to entire muslim community? Its not new in India that people immediately throw the stones to ALL others if they hit by one. It's really bad that a research scholar and professor like you written such article.
Hope you will either correct it or remove it.
To Shafi Shaik:
Seems like you are missing the point of this write up that Hindus are second rated citizens in India. In my opinion, without comparing Hindus with first rate citizens, i.e. minorities, it would be impossible to drive the point home.
