Responsibilities of educated Muslims 12

  The educated Muslims have historical responsibility at this crucial juncture. The Muslim community has been failed by clergies and communal leaders who pushed the community to the wall and made it vulnerable to attacks by paranoid elements.

Since 1947, India has become play ground of two evil factors :

1. Conspiracies by Hinduttava elements

2. Muslim orthodoxy and fanaticism

Both are reinforcing each other but both factors may make both communities modern and enlightened too.

Hinduttava group believes in Mien Kampf and is blind follower of Hitler and Goebbels. So they cannot live without hatching conspiracies and conducting propaganda against Muslims, Christians, Secularists, Leftists, Nehru family and others.

The method of propaganda were first sermons and then audio tapes and cassettes and now technology has made it more powerful and we have emails, Facebook and WhatsApp to spread poisonous lies.

In childhood, I heard ‘why you also don’t go to Pakistan – all Muslims are Pakistanis!’ and when grown up and went to college, I heard the name ‘katuwa’ for Muslim. And one student said – ‘ek katuwi chhodne par (itney)….. ganga snaan ka punya milta hai’.

In Kumbh melas, other melas, Sadhus roaming and visiting Hindu families, audiotapes continuously running in indigenous medicine tents we may overhear such talks – ‘we have given bali……now we will not give bali…. we will take bali.’ ‘ We are Ramzadey   they are Haramzadey’, “ They do everything opposite to us then we eat through mouth, from where they should eat ? asks the Sadhvi.’

 And in the night before elections, they raise slogan “Musalmanon ke do sthaan – Pakistan ya Qabristan”

The bricks taken from Babri were declared to be fixed into latrine.

The most recent propaganda is what a retired professor of Medical College forwarded on WhatsApp group of doctors :

“For Hindus in distress : VHP help line : first day 85000 calls were received.  If any Muslim boy is harassing any Hindu girl : a team of 30000 Hindus is ready to help any Hindu within 24 hours.

Numbers are 020 668 03300     075 886 82181

To declare cow as ‘mother of nation ‘  dial toll free no 08554080747”

If Muslim boys are harassing Hindi girl then is it a problem that cannot be solved by normal law and order ? A team of 30000 is required ? Actually in non-BJP ruled states they want to spread sense of insecurity and a perception that non-BJP ruled states are actually Pakistans.

The Dalit girls and Tribal and NE states girls are molested by same Hinduttava people. The Hindu brides are burnt for dowry by Hindu husbands and families.

The Muslim and Hindu girls elope with their lovers. When families and communities take the issue and couple are caught – the boy is sent to jail and girl is sent to nari bandi niketan. The boy may get released on bail, by court or after serving the sentence but poor girl languishes in women protection home and many such girls become insane.
