The PM did make a valid point when he criticised the Congress for categorising the entire Muslim community in Karnataka under the Other Backward Classes. It is pure appeasement of Ashraaf Muslims and discriminates against Pasmandas.
TMC should worry about minority voters and how they view her ‘outside support’. Minorities are with the TMC but they have also watched Rahul Gandhi march across the country.
Speaking at a CII summit, Nirmala Sitharaman says 99% of phones sold in India are made in the country and that 60% import substitution has been achieved in the telecom sector.Speaking at a CII summit, Nirmala Sitharaman says 99% of phones sold in India are made in the country and that 60% import substitution has been achieved in the telecom sector.
The Spanish foreign minister says 'the Middle East does not need more weapons, it needs more peace'. Spain has been very critical of Israel’s offensive in Gaza.
Even in the weeks leading up to Chamkila’s assassination there were massacres every other day. To airbrush all of this is sheer intellectual cowardice if not a crime.
Dear Ms. Amana,
I appreciate you sharing your opinion on political appeasement as an issue worth discussing in its own right. However, I find it highly inappropriate that you have conflated that with the recent controvertial speech. The intended message from the speech is a thousand times more concerning and potentially damaging to the fabric of this great country, compared to a seemingly mundane political phenomenon like minority appeasement. How these two topics of vastly different imports can be linked together is beyond my understanking.
Your opinion almost seems like a justification for the comments made in the speech, which is not only unfortunate but also seems not fully thought through, in my humble opinion.
Amount of disingenuousness to argue something like this …., is beyond me…
Prime Minister made worst kind of dog whistle Even if there was “appeasement” , it was not such a big enough to make fuss about & making this kind of dog whistle…
But yes , patroange demands such things to be justified ….
Appeasement of any group whether it is minorities or backward classes needs to be corrected and only the deserving groups should get benefits. But don’t you think targeting the entire community is worse? Appeasement can be corrected not by attacking the religion as a whole! BJP and PM Modi can talk about the actions they took to correct the appeasement. They are in power for last 10 years, time to stop blaming the previous governments and to show how they are making a difference. If the difference they are making is by targeting the entire community, it is for people like you to decide that’s what you want and to take that into account while voting in this elections.
If Muslims are being “ appeased “, that should show up in some special privileges or benefits that are being conferred upon them by the state. The Haj subsidy was long a visible symbol, but that has been done away with. Their representation in Parliament and state legislatures, also Cabinets at the Centre and states is at a historic low. Membership of the civil service and armed forces, police. Business. Learned professions.
