It is the blind, unquestioning devotion to an organisation and a philosophy that was born obsolete, if not sick, that has blighted the BJP as a political force.
Two questions are pertinent: Why does the Trump administration keep making the same mistakes on the peace proposal? And what does a hurried peace plan mean on the ground?
While global corporations setting up GCCs in India continue to express confidence in availability of skilled AI engineers, the panel argued that India’s real challenge lies elsewhere.
Without a Congress revival, there can be no challenge to the BJP pan-nationally. Modi’s party is growing, and almost entirely at the cost of the Congress.
They are cowards, other wise they would have not run away… Hindu terror finally after many denials is showing it’s ugly head… These are the Anita nationals who should be put to death for sedation against the father of nation… As an example for other terrorists who are using the Religion of Hinduism to kill people…

President of All India Christian Council Condemns Bigoted Attack on Mahatma Gandhi
The leader of Hindu Mahasabha — the Hindu nationalist organization behind the 1948 assassination —reenacted Gandhi’s murder on the 71st anniversary of his death.
31 January 2019, HYDERABAD, India
Most Rev. Joseph D’Souza releases the following statement condemning the reenactment of Mahatma Gandhi’s by right-wing extremists on the 71st anniversary of his assassination.
“To those who believe Mahatma Gandhi’s struggle for a free, united and democratic India is over, this brazen act of symbolic terror should serve as a reminder that the forces of hatred and intolerance are still very much alive within our borders.
“The reenactment of Gandhi’s murder on the 71st anniversary of his death, to the sound of loud cheers, is an affront to every Indian. Its condemnation should ring louder across India than its celebration.
“Gandhi was the apostle of nonviolence. His tolerance toward all was the hallmark of his character. Without his intervention at the time of partition, India would have descended into a long, bloody period of religious violence. It was Gandhi who stood by our constitution, which gives every Indian the right to become full citizens of India. More than anyone else, he contributed to the idea of Indian nationhood, which is built on citizenship and not on religious affiliation.
“In light of the recent violence that has erupted against Dalits, Muslims and even secular Hindus, this is a foreboding development, especially since many politicians have remained too passive to stop extremists from persecuting those who disagree with them.
“Right-wing extremists — including the Hindu Mahasabha and it’s offshoots of which Gandhi’s killer Nathuram Godse was a member — have never accepted the partition of India. They see it as a national sacrilege. But what they fail to realize is that it’s precisely this kind of religious extremism on both sides — by Hindus and Muslims — that led to the dismemberment of India. This extremism is still alive today, and if it gets out of control, it has the potential to cause the disintegration of present-day India.
“Those of us who love India must work all the more harder to protect Gandhi’s vision for our democracy. But we must do this not with violence or hatred, as those who wish to tear India apart do, but with love and tolerance, as the Father of our Nation taught us.”

Don’t make her a martyr by arresting her, or filing a case of sedition. Distasteful though her thoughts, words and actions are, treat them as part of the freedom of speech, which is a constitutional right. Let ordinary Indians of good conscience understand where the fount of this sickness lies, what role it should play in our national life.
