The secular debate

As elections approach their last mile the secular debate is getting more and more    shriller you hear more and more voices especially from the self declared secular brigade about secular and communal politics

You see politicians like Rahul Gandhi yesterday trying to shift the focus of this election from growth jobs and accountability to secular vs. communal divide

So who defines who is secular and who is not and what is the definition of secularism?

is it appeasement as done by so called secular parties or is it as defined by the BJP what they call nationalism  so before we go into this lets first look into what makes India secular does the congress party make India secular as they claim or the constitution binds everybody into being secular.

 well to me its the people of this country who makes India secular if i am not wrong 80% of this country is Hindu and more than that percentage the no of seats  on which the Hindu vote decides  the result must be around 85 %  so who stops the Hindu majority in this country from turning India into Hindu state after all it just requires a constitutional amendment which can be brought very  easily .

so why despite all this and the RSS and the VHP and the BAJRANG DAL trying very hard why is that we are still a secular nation and any party which tries to play with this is and will never be able to gain control of the power in Delhi  .

well the answer is that it’s the Hindu population of this county which makes India secular it’s the Hindu which wants that India should be a secular nation it’s the Hindu who voted for Jawaharlal Nehru when he first sought votes on this basis and got elected its the Hindu which has time and again voted for the congress and the other parties that has made India into a secular nation

it’s not so simple as it seems there divisions within the Hindu population SC/ST OBC this that but broadly its one faith and they want India to be secular and that why we are will always remain a secular nation thanks to the people of India and not to the congress or Nehru or any Gandhi and this the BJP found out to its peril in the 2004 election where despite running a good government they lost

 Why? 

Because they lost the vote of the Hindu population that does not want the BJP to go that path this new thought process i of BJP this talk of inclusiveness has been forced on them by the people of this country and not by anyone else

The problem with the political class of this country that they want to take the people of this country for ride, when the congress wins they say that it’s the win for their ideology and when the BJP wins they say its the win for their ideology  and they forget the real issue.

 When  you ask them what have you done on governance ,corruption they  hide behind this veil of secularism and try to take credit for what is basically the achievement of the common man and i am sure the same is going to happen with the BJP they will win on growth ,jobs but as soon as they win their mother organization the RSS  is going to assume that we have won on our ideology so let’s play with the secular fabric of this country and they will find out the implication of that but in that process India would have lost on another crucial 5 yrs.

 What no one seems to understand is that India has moved on, take the example of Rajasthan every five yrs there is sweeping change people are giving opposite mandates every 5 yrs so what do  you mean that if the congress wins then the people of Rajasthan are secular and if the bjp wins the same population has now turned communal  ,you take people of India for fools  .

The way the congress the samajwadi party and others are trying to turn these elections into a secular vs. communal debate shows a huge disconnect with the way India is thinking right now.

Solution for riots and disturbances is not the blame game but a comprehensive structure that binds every state government by law into acting in particular way when  such a situation arises there must be clearly laid down procedures which if not followed should lead to the removal and conviction of the home and chief ministers but who wants that.

 Riots suit everybody every political party when it’s in their interest.

 The political class of this country and especially those who have governed this country for decades and turned it into the mess as it is now want that people should never get out of this hogwash and vote for real issues and even if people vote for real issues they want to corrupt an loot this nation in the name that people have given a mandate for secularism.

 Sorry! people have not given the mandate for this they have given a mandate to do something and not sleep when there is open loot going on people of India can take care of the secular fabric of this country much better than any politician  ever can .
