“If you kill someone can you undo it? He has already spoken, so it can’t be taken back,” : This was a statement by Leader of Dalit Sena, Palanimuthu in Tamil Nadu.
He was referring to Ram Vilas Vedanti's call for beaheading Tamil Nadu Chief minister Karunanidhi. Naturally shocked and angry supporters of Karunanidhi now want immediate arrest of Ram vilas vedanti.
On the other hand, Vedanti says that it was not his remarks and he was just quoting a verse from the hindu sciptures. The main question that arises here is 'Was he unaware of this verse when his party was blaming Islam and muslims to be violent"?
VHP and BJP are trying to wash their hands from this issue. They are apparently condemning this statement of Vedanti, as they believe that lok sabha elections are about to begin in short.
It is wrong on part of Karunanidi to pass such comments which may hurt sentiments of people. But then again many hindus do believe that Ramayan was just and epic and a story. Karunanidhi should have made his point in more decent manner instead of making a mockery of people's beliefs.
But issuing a fatwa "Joh karunanidhi ka sar kaat ke layega hum ayodhya ke sant use sona se tolenge" shows the wild and violent nature of these leaders. They have to be more civilized and cultured. VHP/RSS people think that they are representing and protecting the hindu tradition and culture while actually they are damaging it. Not one person of these organizations follows the vedas. If killing people in the name of religion is extremism and terrorism, how are these people different from other terrorists?
