Intolerance

The dictionary meaning of intolerance is lack of tolerance ie unwillingness or refusal to 

tolerate or respect opinions or beliefs contrary to 

one’s own or unwillingness or refusal to tolerate or respect persons of a different social group.  

We have been recently reading  so many opinions, judgments, on  religious intolerance against minority communities on TV channels, news papers  internet etc consequent to one or two isolated cases ..

Yesterday I was watching a TV channel show wherein intellectuals of Pakistan were discussing on this subject and had opined that intolerance against minorities in India has increased to an alarming situation.

They are definitely right as they may have been unable to see this phenomenon in their own country or they must have deliberately closed their eyes as far as Pakistan is concerned.  It is pertinent to mention here that hindu population in Pakistan has reduced from twenty six percent to one percent  and that could be one reason of their myopic vision. They may not have been able to see intolerance against a micro community by their fellow country men.

We may congratulate them for tolerating the  rare species ie hindus in Pakistan ( just like we are tolerating tigers in any forest).

When I was a child, I did not know how grand parents looked like. I did not have a privilege to see large joint families. The so called high tolerant society of Pakistan had eliminated a large hindu population from the country during 1948 and my grand parents along with several community members were also among the victims of cold blooded massacres.

Of course prior their killings, they were all given option by highly tolerant Pakistan society to convert  their religion. This option like many other members of my marshal community, had  refused and therefore was eliminated.

Now coming back to the dictionary meaning of intolerance. The dictionary meaning of intolerance is  unwillingness or refusal to tolerate or respect opinions or religious beliefs contrary to one’s own and therefore most of us must agree that a large population of Pakistan is an intolerant society beyond any doubts and allowing individuals from that society to participate in such serious discussions is mockery of the subject.

Now let us come back to our indian society ie what the so called broad minded  tolerant congress leadership claims. I do not know what made congress party to make a constitution of our republic during 1950 which created a seperate dominating  governance class  through its reservation policy in government jobs.

The congress government therefore created a  community of people who hated individuals belonging to other communities ie from so called upper classes..

The discriminatory attitude of the congress government was also felt by  common Punjabi hindu in almost every walk of life.

A question always comes in the minds of average indians ,  Were we part of a  tolerant society before modi government took over ?  

Dont we think that congress leadership as well as “nation award return gangs had been making mockery of themselves when they say intolerance against minorities has increased consequent during modi regime.

The congress leadership of the state was therefore  intolerant to hindu idealogy in all spheres of life

Raising this issue of intolerance by congress and their followers, when Sun Moon and all planets are functioning in normal manner   is a mockery of the subject. Has congress forgotten large hindu exodus of Kashmir during their tenures. Have they forgotten kirana wherein it is difficult for a hindu girl to get out of her house.  Either   congress leadership had been  making fool of them selves or are not aware of the ground realities. Fact is hindus had always been a tolerant society and this is the reason of phenomenal growth of muslims in hindu india.

And the final word of truth is congress  is out of breathe and even heaven can not save her. Congress is awaiting its final funeral.
