THE IRONY IS THAT THE HINDU MAJORITY IS BEING COACHED TO FEAR THE POOR MUSLIM



THE IRONY IS THAT THE HINDU MAJORITY IS BEING COACHED TO FEAR THE POOR MUSLIM - OUR SECOND POOREST GROUP.

"Changing the social fabric of the country has been a clearly stated agenda of the BJP, which has ruled India for the last six years. Its efforts have been so successful that it appears to have shifted the ground further to the right, making it hard for other parties to evoke a different view of India that doesn’t depend on majoritarian politics.

Henceforth whichever government comes to power, the people of India will have to grapple with a cultural fabric where questioning each person’s right to live in the country seems to have become fair game. 

And though the question began with Muslims, other religious minorities and oppressed classes, are not far off. 

Indeed, though caste has not been discussed separately here, each one of the items has an element where India’s continued casteism only makes the country’s challenges even harder to overcome." - SCROLL

A conversation with someone who is open-minded, who values growth and understanding, can be enlightening—even if you don’t agree. But trying to reason with someone who refuses to see beyond their own beliefs? That’s like talking to a wall. No matter how much logic or truth you present, they will twist, deflect, or dismiss your words, not because you’re wrong, but because they’re unwilling to see another side. Maturity is...
