There is a basic flaw in ur argument.
Pl tell me how do u decide what is a superstition? I find that age old practices arise out of certain scientific or practical basis. The wise would cast them in a practice than order. WeHindus believe in not throwing garbase out post evening, cleaning house before evening/morn, bathign before cooking, not allowing outsiders in to kitchen et all. All these have a scientific basis and now r cast as practices. How can u assume aGod Role and say they r superstition? And ur argument of each community coming out and stamping out superstition? Its another no brainer. Its more ofPontification. Again who will decide what not to follow?

% Hindi(Hindu) TV channels are all out to spread superstitions & blind faiths like one giving a program, "Adh Haquikat-Adha Fasana'mainly aimed at spreading superstations. In this country, wrong stories are now presented as true in TV serials in the name of religion- a mere vote bank,

Fight against superstition in the form of legislation is a welcome move. Banning all kinds of occult practices, superstitious acts is just a beginning. Our country has to go a long way in this direction.

Despite 50 years of dravidian party rule, supersitious practices could not be reduced in Tamilnadu. It only increased many folds.

Superstition and politics

Superstition is strongly promoted by politicians and television. Vastuh is draining public money and it is also making building constructions costlier for the middle class.

The problem is that your scientific knowledge and understanding is limited to pressure buildup in pressure cooker when heated. Nothing more than that. I can also tell you dont even know the relation between pressure volume and temperature. Forget about vastusastra.
