Varun Gandhis Speech - Few Questions

The alleged minority bashing speech by Varun Gandhi has provided lot of Masala to the TRP hungry news broadcasters. There is no denying to the fact that the language used by this young politician is not conducive to the current society in which we live. The question i would like to ask here is - whether his speech is deplorable only because it is against a minority? What if he would have used a threatening language against any of his co-religionist opponent? Well again my guess is that the media would have created some sort of hue & cry only if they could see in it a story of an higher caste politician bad mouthing a lower caste community. Though the tenacy would not have been as comparable as the one wherein a majority community leader saying something bad to a minority community. So in India a remark is not bad per se, but is bad depending upon against whom it has been made. Is is not partiality ? The politicians have been very successful in dividing the people of this nation on the lines of caste & religions & sadly this so called open eyed non partial media has been of great help to them in their cause.

Second question i would like to pose is whether we intelligent people are open to hear calling spade a spade. There is no denying the fact that scores of hindus have been killed in the recent past by some mis-guided muslim fundamentalists in the name of religion. Now if someone representing the victim side vents out his anger over this situation & warns those muslims who have harm them, then is it so wrong? Of what i have heard of his speech it says - "Jo haath hindus ki taraf badenge use hum kaat (cut) denge". Now where is he warning the whole muslim community as a whole. But of course he has a right to warn (on behalf of those victimised people he foresee representing in future) those bad elements in the muslim community who have made it their mission to wipe out all non-muslims from the face of the earth. I am sure even the peace loving muslim brothers would like to punish such people in their midst who brings bad name to their whole community. His second statement was about the foolishness of Gandhi philosophy of forwarding the other chin if some body slap us. Now what is wrong with it. Personally even i find this Gandhian philosophy utterly foolish in the kind of world where we live today. So i come back to my original question whether we have a gut to call spade a spade & whether we have tolerance to hear about our fault if we are on the wrong side. I dont think so.

But yes no body in the media can afford to let the golden opprtunity of raising their TRP's pass by & am surprised that even Varun Gandhi chose to reply in such a tamely politician manner that his speeches are doctored.

Note: I am all for a hindu muslim ekta & in no way support any statement given by Varun Gandhi with malicious intentions. But just wanted to bring out the way our media & politicians have been successful in doctoring our thinking process where there is no scope for any intelligent & objective debate on any topic unless & until it suits their objectives.
