The Ram Sethu Issue

It is very unfortunate that Ram sethu issue is being so foolishly dealt with. Political greed and hypocrisy showed up itself once again. The BJP itself granted the sethu samudram project and now opposing it unnecessarily making it a religious issue.

The congress should have dealt this issue more sensitively. Freedom of speech and expression has some limitations. Karunanidhi (Tamil Nadu chief minister) or anyone else has no right to hurt the sentiments of people may it be Hindus or Muslims. He would have represented his point in a more decent manner instead of mocking the hindu religious sentiments. Congress on the first hand should have noticed and removed the objectionable content in the affidavit filed by archaeological society of India.

The BJP feels that Ramar sethu issue 'is a gift by Congress'. they want to exploit as much as they can out of this issue. The Sangh parivar members once again proved that they are no different or no lesser than any terrorist organization in the world. After burning a Tamil Nadu bus in Banglore and burning two people to death, the BJP leader ramvilas vedanti's statement is a mockery on the Indian law and order and the Indian constitution itself. An open murder threat in public is something everyone must be worried about. The person agaisnt whom he issued a 'fatwa' (of beheading) is non other than a Chief minister. If Sangh parivar people can go to an extent to threaten a Chief minister in power, what about ordinary people? For them ordinary Indian who stand in their way should simply die.

The congress should at least realise its mistakes at this point and try to deal with sensibility instead of worrying about consequences. It should apologise to hindus and explain the 'good' it is willing to do by the construction of sethu samudram project. Otherwise such incidents will repeat again. This time it was Hindus next time when the power shifts in BJP's favor, it will be Muslims on the road.
