How would you expect a writer who is not fair to his own religion to be fair with other religons; let him revel in his half-baked knowledge of Indian history, would win some prize from our pseudo secularists

Let anyone show one example in the history of India; if Hindus would have neen intolerant Buddhism from nepal would n't have taken roots in India; it was not by force; today Ashok chakra finds an honorable place on our flag; Sikhism wouln't have spread; Bahi's would not have been sheltered in India when they were persecuted in Persia; or Parsi's would have been accepted;Islam wouldn't have reached the level of second major religion of India; Christianity would n't have spread this far. All talks of Hindu intolerance is non-sense spread by intolerant practioners of other religions who like to wipe out Hinduism by one sided imposition of tolerance only on Hindus
Why can’t we make an India where education, employment, housing and health are for all? What caused us failed to achieve so? We don’t need to go for reservation when above is provided to all irrespective of their religion and caste. Does India know that this is divide and rule policy applied by politicians across party line. Equality and social justice could be achieved on policies and regulations established based on sincerely recognized genuine need of above facilities. Our society is more prone to express concern and react with events took place in history which has continued to carry the scars of burden from generation to generation. We continued to live today based on past than we never shown instinct to build tomorrow leaving past aside. Look into the narrow hidden agenda of leadership who want to continue ruling the country based on issues linked with pasts. These are the leaders considered and acceptable in our society as visionary. Don’t you think India is collapsing with such leadership? Don’t you think we have to negate current leadership and bring in new energies to build India glorified, proud and bright as she deserved. We have to renounce inequality, prejudices and start appreciating equality and social justice. This is the only way to keep India intact else looting and corruption will continue until we break away. Our current leadership across party line is hardly interested in national integration rather they are interested in power an

Revenue collected is only for paying Salary and perqs including retiral of govt. servant and look after politicians need. They are present Maharajas of modern India.
Due to better tolerance power of Hindus only, all religion grew here. Therefore we are Secular and respect each religion. This philosophy is unique in itself and cannot be seen anywhere in the world. Biggest strength in diversity.

@ Champak : UN has been known to be biased time and again ... in several instances. So it is not that their utterances are sacrosanct. This too is one such instance. Can you think of any other nation where the majority of people live in such amity with people of several other religions? You cannot even name one. And the only other Hindu kingdom is about to be gobbled by the Communists.

Wherever Hindus are in minority in their own country we see the intolerance of the Majority. Kashmir is one example where ethnic clensing has been done, the Martand temple destoryed and the Hindus who were thrown out now allowed to come back and regain their lands. The abdullah government was not even prepared to donate some land on the way to Amarnath caves even for two months when the area is habitable, citing Kashmiriyat and other bullshit.
