Hostile Attitude Towards Muslims Is Real Character Of BJP: Congress

Arpita SarkarJune 10, 20220

PM Narendra Modi did not say a word. Union Home Minister Amit Shah is also silent. External Affairs Minister S Jayashankar also did not utter a word. The whole world is ashamed of the prophetic remarks of the BJP spokespersons. Even after that, Congress on Wednesday raised the question as to why these three top officials of the central government are keeping their mouths shut. The Congress alleges that in the face of pressure from West Asian countries, the BJP has for the time being dismissed those party spokespersons as "fringe elements". But the reality is that this hateful attitude towards Muslims is the real character of the BJP. Prime Minister Modi himself, Amit Shah has also risen to the top of the party by walking this path.

Path Leading To 2024 Elections Seems Gloomy For Congress

Sayani ChakrabortyJune 9, 20220

It was odd that, despite Congress' strained relations, the other opposition parties remained silent or designated themselves as "like-minded" groups. After two years in office, Narendra Modi's second term is coming to a conclusion. Second, Rajiv Gandhi's assassination has been 30 years ago. Time to look at the political futures of India's two main political parties, which will both be celebrating their 100th birthdays in the summer of 2024. Our focus is on the present, and we won't linger on the past. The past may not always give the best indicator of the future in both mutual fund investing and politics. All non-Congress opposition parties with more than a 1% vote share don't sum up to 20% of the total vote, which was the Congress's total. This is true even for UPA allies like DMK and ...

Sapna SinghJune 8, 20220

Existing contention between different political parties over mandir-masjid is rising day by day. In such a situation, the Gyanvapi mosque built in the Hindu temple proves to be pouring 'ghee into the fire'. According to a report, there are approximately three thousand temples throughout the country that have been converted into mosques over the centuries. Not all of them may remain dead issues; no government has gone to the trouble of resolving them, and they have been left to be resolved through the courts. Such issues eventually become political controversies. The self-proclaimed secular parties would be hesitant to offend their Muslim constituents, while others would need to appease their Hindu supporters. If we see Ayodhya and the Ram Janmabhoomi controversy, which has reache...

Sayani ChakrabortyJune 7, 20220

As a consequence of Nitish Kumar's disobedience of his party leader and Union minister R.C.P. Singh about a Rajya Sabha seat, the BJP-Janata Dal (U) alliance in Bihar has been placed into a state of tension and doubt. This has caused the coalition to be in a position of uncertainty. Nitish Kumar's activities have directly contributed to the growth of tension and uncertainty in Bihar as a direct consequence of the fact that both parties in the state are vying to create an alliance government as quickly as possible. Because of what has transpired, Singh will be obliged to step down from the position he now holds. On the other hand, Mr. Kumar's choice to turn down Mr. Singh's application for the office of Union minister is more than just an oversight on his part. It is quite permiss...

If I Speak Hindi, I Will Become A Slave: DMK Leader TKS Elangovan

Arpita SarkarJune 7, 20220

Forcing the people of the southern states to speak Hindi means imposing 'Manudharma' on them. The remarks came in the wake of remarks made by Union Home Minister Amit Shah on behalf of Hindi on the issue of "One Country One Language", a leader of the ruling DMK in Tamil Nadu. His question is, even though Hindi is not the mother tongue, what will happen if Bengali, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Maharashtra are developed states, but still developing states use the mother tongue of Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, and Bihar? Opposing the argument that increasing the use of Hindi would increase employment opportunities, the DMK leader quipped, "Hindi is spoken in places where people sell Panipuri." I will end up as a Shudra, that is, a slave." Shah recently questioned the use of Hindi as the...
