First, they told a Greenpeace activist not to talk, nest they told us not to see ‘India’s daughter,’ then, they expect us not to hear incredulously ridiculous remarks made by their equally ridiculous ministers and MP’s, and now they want us to lose touch with the real world by taking regressive steps. They’ve only managed to allow us to wake up each day to the smell of garbage, both fresh and decayed!!! Yes, the BJP has knocked most of us Indians senseless!!
As if this was not enough, they have banned beef which is staple diet to most of the minorities and a few from other faiths. Can Rajnath Singh and his ilk tell us what his and their spouses’ footwear, belts and wallets/handbags made of? Most of them must be having their home and vehicle upholstery made of the same material too and have we noticed the shining shoes of our police force? So, Mr Singh, please don’t ban beef in the name of religion and if you insist, you will have to take a closer look at tanneries, both legal and illegal. Also, please don’t tell us that most of us Indians look up to the cow as ‘Mother’. You are painfully insulting the term ‘Mother’ by choosing to save the animal rather than so many mothers, mothers-in-law, young girls who have been raped and killed thereby not even being given a chance to witness the joys of motherhood, and even small children who are being violated every single day not to mention female foeticide in the country. I am sure thet even Animal rights activists who you seem to be patronizing will agree!!!. They are usurping our rights one by one in a manner worse than the Congress ever did. So, can someone please tell me this is not emergency, BJP style! I would dearly love to be convinced.
