Before the elections' date=' there are 100s of moronic, stupid statements made by 100s of leaders. Both Hindus and Muslims. Congress and BJP and AAP candidates. To be even fooled for one second to believe that any of them are real or realistic or implementable is to be incredibly stupid, exactly the kind of audience these politicians count on[/quote'] But we never see such posts when some one from BJP make a idiotic comment , all we see is posts about how communal's are deviding this country etc.

Hmm, what is the need of any country? for a country to stay united? for a country to grow uniformly? Step back and ask yourself these questions please When the black were given more rights to make up for the centuries of oppression, the fundoo whites were the first ones to complain. They belived there was white guilt and white rights were being trampled When the gay were given more rights, the first one to complain were fundoo straight guys. They conveniently ignore the centuries of opression of gays, they just think whites shouldn't be given more rights Similarly, I am not surprised that you cannot see the simple fact that hindus enjoy the most representation in everything, from government to private to everywhere, hindus are in the majority. So if someone is paying special attention to Muslims, it is because they are indeed in the minority and do need the help. So your genius solution, is to control and alienate almost 15% of India's population. Not to win their trust, not to get them into the mainstream and away from hard-liners. Nope, control them by force You might not like this, but those Muslims living in India are much closer to India and much more Indians than some NRIs living seven seas away who would not like anything more than seeing India burn to prove their ideology. the solution is never to alienate or control a part of our own citizens, but to make them feel more comfortable and mainstream If you are a family, and you have many brothers, which brother will you pay attention to most, the one who is level headed and can take care of itself, or one who is juvenile delinquent and likely to join the local gang at the first opportunity? For India as a country, each citizen in precious and important and one of it's own
Do you have any stats saying Muslims have more issues than Hindu's? You are the guy who was shouting there is no Votebank politics,while lot of Muslim clerics came out and said Muslims should stop being votebanks. ps : Stop passing judgement about others you are not that eligible person to do that :icflove:

Yeah... when they encourage people to do sting operations, what are their real intentions then? Instead of tackling the problem, try to divert attention. They are the masters of that strategy!
If you do sting' date=' be honest and circulate full clip to see the complete content, and let people judge..Not just the edited potion to suit you agenda..That is dishonesty, but I know I cant expect anything better..[/quote']

I am also paranoid when people say relegious laws take precendence over national interests

Weakest Link in the chain. That is all you need to say and I would get your point.

A chain, no matter how weak the weakest link, is still a single chain. Communalism (which every major party is responsible for) is like rust. It weakens the entire chain. Not just the weakest link ( or what you perceive to the weakest link). And then the chain breaks. The answer to communalism is never counter-communalism. It is inclusive economic development.

All that makes sense if one assumes a nation is akin to a chain. Second, no such thing as inclusive development.

same laws, different laws. Frankly, it is irrelevant. "Chain" is simply not robust enough as a model/representation.

Not a science student, but I think it makes perfect scientific sense. The links at the extremities and the fringes are the weakest. They are not as strong as those as the centre/mainstream. Plus the end of the chain is tied down to anchors and deadweghts further stretching it.They need special care/oiling etc.

Without a doubt there should be more efforts to connect them to mainstream by emphasizing on quality education and putting efforts to end the ghetto culture. After all treating 2 unequals as equals can never be right. But you know that is not done by a party and its allies that has ruled for 60 years. What is done is you wear a skull cap after riots and say this party is of poor muslim people(Akhilesh Yadav), try to give communal colors when some miscreant from minority is shot by BJP ruled states police. Try to incite fear and scare, get votes, win the election and so on.

What a ridiculous post. Your whole point is contradictory. On one hand, you are asking for special attention for Muslims while you conclude on your last point that each citizen is precious. That's the problem with people like yourself. You have become obsessed with the word secularism (today better referred as appeasement) that you have forgotten equality or actually even working hard. Muslims in India are already lucky, when you compare them with Pakistan Muslims, clearly they are much better off here. And you mentioned about gays, what does your Muslims have to say about that? Why are they oppressing their rights? Why is there such a hypocrisy?

In all the above cases blacks and gays their is oppression from one group towards others. In India their is hardly any oppression towards muslims. Talking about Hindu representation in everything this has to do more with Muslims being more conservative they still haven't assimilated in to the Indian society. The government should take steps towards Cultural assimilation of Muslims in to Indian society and reservations are not a way.

You have been answered on this question several times.Musims were not the oppressed in Indian history. They were rulers. In no way their condition could be compared with blacks of USA. Before partition they had voice in name of Muslim league to whom 90% of muslims supported at that time. I think Blacks of should be given 2 countries from USA , where they reduce whites to minisicule minority then in the 3rd bigger white majority nation we should see the rights given to blacks

Good point. Muslims were never socially oppressed. Whereas Hindus were very much slaughtered. They have ruled India for 800 years and yet are backwards. Thus, it also doesn't mean any true sense to give any reservations to them. They really have only themselves to blame.
