Bharat ka to Bhagwan Maalik hai................!!!
The recent communal violence in Orissa and Karnataka are highly regrettable. However, in my opinion, conversion is the root cause. The missionary groups work with great zeal in tribal areas converting the poor people to their faith. Reactions from majority groups against these efforts follow, resulting in violence. Religious leaders should take the lead. They should not indulge in conversions either overtly or covertly. Also, leaders from different religions should arrive at a conclusion to observe religious tolerance. They should undertake to lead their followers in the right way.
Though the attacks on Christians in Orissa and Karnataka should be condemned the fact remains that under the pretext of charity work, Christian missionaries convert poor tribals. A person should adopt another religion of his own free will. While praising their own religion, the missionaries should not show Hinduism in bad light.
As the nation bleeds with rising oil prices and the rupee gets weaker, the Haj subsidy has been increased. I wonder why in India Hindus are not entitled to such privileges? What are the criteria on which the Centre decides to give subsidies only to Haj pilgrims? India is a country which gives its minorities maximum freedom and privileges. The government should give such privileges to old and poor Hindus who want to visit various temples. After all, the Centre should be fair to all communities.
