Leaders of known rabid-communal outfits were recently seen trying to instigate our peace-loving Goan Hindus playing cow politics to spread the communal virus and even seen daringly saying that they had the guts of henceforth stopping the minorities in Goa from consuming beef completely by even using violence without the government’s support in the next couple of years. The reason why they want to ban beef completely on top priority basis like in other states is because they claim that they want to defend their religion and all the cows in India as it is holy for them. Well, who has given these fanatics the right to impose their personal religious beliefs and to attack the eating habits of others using violence by distorting Hindu religion in a descent peace-loving state like Goa?
This whole thing is being well-planned by known communal elements with the active support of the ruling BJP government at the centre/Goa to slowly take away all fundamental rights of the minorities and to turn them not into 2nd but 3rd class citizens to fulfill their long cherish dream of turning this country into their version of Taliban-type Hindu-Rashtra. I think that all such communal-headed leaders in India are no different than all the Jihadis or terrorists because like them, they too are practically seen playing a most dangerous dirty game and wasting their most precious time by trying to forcibly impose their own personal religious beliefs over others using violence by giving the same silly excuse of Jihaadis (terrorists) of defending religion.
I think that our Indian leaders should seriously work to eradicate hunger, poverty, unemployment etc on top priority basis to take this nation really forward instead of wasting time raising unimportant issues like beef ban, religious conversions, love-Jihad, etc to divide India on religious lines for political gains. Let every living person have equal freedom which is guaranteed in the Constitution to follow their own respective religions, customs and traditions coz finally this nation is not a private property of just one community but is a sacred home of all communities living in India, irrespective of caste, creed and religion.
Long live Secular India, long live freedom… down with dictatorship… and distorted religious-based madness.. coz this madness can never unite but only divide and break this country into a thousands of pieces in the long run…. So, wake up all you communal politicians and beware before it is to late… Learn to behave like civilized human beings and learn to scan this country beyond your own personal religion. Stop behaving like road-side violent goons and allow this country to move not backward in the dark ages but forward with modern thoughts and ideas….
