Hey Guys,
I am starting this thread to discuss the rise of right wing forces in India and their impact on social fabric of India. India is a multicultural country where different religions have co-existed with harmony. India is place where some great religions like Buddhism, Sikhism got birth. Islam is practiced in India since Muhammad's time. India has historically been a rich in multiculturalism .
In such a rich and homogeneous society, people have lived together peacefully. But as the time progressed, India also got changed. After Independence, there have been cases of communal tensions which were result of a petty politics. But with the advent of liberalized era, which was a result of setback to socialism at international level, our country has faced a tremendous problem of social gap between rich and poor.
The most hit communities are minorities which are also facing right wing assault. We have witnessed the rise of right wing forces from 1990 on wards. Several right wing forces have ganged up to polarize the vote bank. Babri Mosque demolition is a classic example of such right wing offensive. Several right parties cashed upon this polarization by sacrificing the communal harmony between two communities. It used to be a time when Ch. Charan Singh started agricultural revolution through out the country under which farmers from all the communities came on a common platform and fought with the real injustice.
But Unfortunately this bond between various communities did not last long. Opportunist politicians from parties like BJP tried to play a communal to foray into politics and got some success in 90's. Since then these right wing forces are on a very offensive mode and therefore pose a constant danger of destablising Indian politics and society. The temerity of these Hindu fanatics isn't stopping anywhere. Communal tension throughout the country are rising.
Starting from Gujarat where so many innocents Muslims have lost lives and then quite recently in Mujjafarnagar in Uttar Pradesh. Several government reports have indicated the hand of BJP and Sangh role into these riots. A recent news caught my attention today.
