The problem is Congress is acting like pakistanis, whenever there is terrorist attack inside pakistan, they blame all external agencies, nobody questions the uniformed terrorists (PA) role in creating this monster. That issue will never be addressed. Congress is doing the same thing, by blaming pakistan or imaginary Hindu terror group, they are making sure that there role in nurturing this monster through vote-bank politics and police-criminal- politicos nexus. That will never be addressed. Until we understand the real problem we are facing, we are not going to get over it.
Nitesh,
blame has to go to congress each and every time they are on the fault but lets also not miss it out when the others are doing just the same and this is not just replying to you but generally. i am as much miffed with congress type of politics as any here, but lets also look at the larger politics that happens in india in regional pockets but no one takes note of it.
let us take the example of UP. we have come to this today, because no one corrected or took note of the start of fall of kind of politics in UP way back in late 80's and 90's, when all this, exact the same, had started happening since this was limited to regional politics of the state. SP/BSP, played the muslim card as passionately but their type of politics was never equated to as acting like pakistanis. during the mean time bjp was playing the hindutva card, all very emotive to garner votes which helped arouse the passions back then, which then polarised the people, but still no one was correcting that, and no one then called them to be the hindu versions of pakistanis. in the general election '09 varun gandhi was used to do the same, wasnt he and his mentors then acting like any of those pakistanis? interestingly as this was being played out in UP, congress was not into it, and the result was that they kept getting marginalised from the UP political scene. fact of the matter is, congress if it has to have a revival in UP cant do without dirtying their hands, and this i say even as i am as miffed as any on the politics congress is playing there and i have as strongly denounced it as any here, and it is because congress has a very strong media management that they get instant coverage, that all their nonsense hits our face immediately and we get all worked up.
anyways, UP elections is a very different ball game, if people recall last assembly elections there, bsp never used the media, they kept quite, they kept low, they kept working at the grass root level and it was as good as a hiatus from the media scene and if people notice, bhenji has stopped appearing in defence but is busy working at the grass root level yet again.
lets move to west bengal. mamta ended up being a much worse commie than the commies themselves to unseat them, but we had almost everyone celebrate her type of politics but if in next elections and during the course of this government the commies were to retaliate with much severe vengeance and ferocity, then who is to blame? mind you, i am not justifying the commies.
lets move to bihar. nitish kr very smartly engineered a divide in the obc which helped him garner another term and that to decisively, but if someone was to take a lesson and do something of a sort to another caste, then who is to blame?
take they politics of TN, the politicians openly bribe their voters and the average voter feels very proud of it, who is to blame? and if they are not going to produce the most corrupt politicians then who will?
problem is, the politics of this country is such that bigotry is to be seen in abundance and when it suits our means we stand in defence, when not, we are up confronting it, but there is no common stand against it. so when congress acts as pakistanis we take note of it, but when bjp does it, we dont, on the contrary we justify it and fully support it. if the very people who these politicians think they are taking for a ride say enough is enough, then and only then will the politics refine here, but that will not happen and since that wont so we will have have people play the muslim card, the hindutva card and there will be no dearth of people like digvijay singh's, varun gandhi's, asaduddin owaisi's and bigotry will be the order of the day.
