I am skeptical about Narendra Modi’s fast for goodwill and reconciliation
in Gujarat, popularly known as Sabhavna upvas . But I am full of praise for Modi for his
courage to shun communal vote-politics which has been pursued by political
parties religiously in order to steal a march over others among themselves. Modi
declined to wear the Islamic skull-cap offered to him by an Imam. The political
parties’ compulsion of appeasement to a particular religious minority is
sometimes at the cost of harmony and national integrity. The result today we
see around us is horrible. This love for minority can not be seen when it comes
to protecting the minority communities like Kashmiri pundits in J&K, Sikhs
in Delhi, linguistic minorities in Maharashtra, Bihar, U.P and other parts of
India. They are subject to planned persecution. externment, genetic cleansing
and forcible occupation of their houses at the hands of local goons supported by politicians.
Modi has spurned the move publicly to be part of a nasty
game which today’s politicians indulge in. I fully endorse to the maxim
appeasement to none and development to all.
