Don't question people's patriotism by making such vicious portrayal. Indians are more loyal to their country than any others outside. Here the difference is our loyalty in true democratic spirit ( Do not think it otherwise by relying on a few individual sects working against). A day will emerge when discipline will be be matter of strict enforcement; and then these anti-social elements would change and all the perpetrators of crime against India would be wiped out! Let there be none to spread wrong signal that is capable of false impression about India and Indian people. That is the need of the hour.

This is what this article says. Our patriotism is limited to shouting or opposing some slogans of our choice. We do not obey or follow the rules of our own nation which we love (?).

Gujarat is one of the chronic incidents of India's woes. We do have several of them starting from British rule to kashmir genocides from 1947 onwards, the genocide on Kashmir pandits, the those lower level incidents of Marad, Kannur red-tracks .. what not! But unfortunate part is people remember only those in which they have their vested interests; like the one of Gujarat 2002. Even the Gujarat incident whenever trumpeted is besmeared of bias and prejudices.For, those talks do not cast an iota of discussion on the Godhra carnage; burning alive of 58 young innocent men of this very country, which was the spontaneous cause of Gujarat 2002. Why no blame on such a big incitement ? What happened in Gujarat is unfortunate, but those who seek to ignite the issue again and again is a matter of concern India confronts. Why we need to remain mute spectators to such venom spitting elements in our society? These elements do not talk anything when our jawans are butchered, when our people are slaughtered in Kashmir? Those incidents do not arouse any interest to these pseudo sadists!
Donald Trump is running on a campaign of hyper-nationalism "Make America Great Again " and about wall along Mexican border.He is also winning primaries in US based on this campaign.

American public has already rejected one candidate 50 years ago who was claiming to use light nuclear weapons against Vietnam.

Are you contending that there is something that is perfect. Every civilization has its ups and downs. However it is, it is ours. And the author is totally wrong about nationalism.
Any body's nationalism is not linked to the amount of Income Tax paid by them. I have seen many Foreigners, who have a mindset worst than this. Because one is paying tax, he is not given any license to talk anything he wants. The author represents his NGO, aspiring for grants for his activities in India. These NGOs are biggest thief, in the name of Social Service, they do all the kind of activities under the sun whether legal or not?
