Letters to the Editor: Let's tackle communal forces

So once again, the majority community of India is at the receiving end — just as in the past. The referred community is of the Hindus, believers of the oldest religious faith of the world. For example, if we look at the present happenings in our neighborhood — with particular reference to Bangladesh on our Southeast – and also Pakistan and Afghanistan (both located on the western international sector); and what is more diabolic —even in our own Indian State of Jammu & Kashmir, such barbaric atrocities are being constantly committed upon helpless people of the community.

The time is ripe for us to understand the plight of the country's majority community. Well, it is very natural that these helpless people might opt to migrate to India as it is the only nation who can give them 'refugee' status. It is our moral duty to give refuge to anyone under dire compulsions unlike the Bangladeshis intruders in West Bengal and Assam where they are being given a red-carpet welcome because of the appeasement policy followed by some vested parties.

Unfortunately in Assam, we have some pseudo secularists who think otherwise. Such anti-CAA agitationists had among others, also spread their messages to various parts of the nation. Subsequently the move turned violent. The violence spreaders were reportedly exposed about their nexus with Pakistan. It is very apparent that such leaders in the garb of politicians (after fanning masses' minds with rhetoric donning masks of variegated colours) were also funded by some "unseen hands".

Why can't we challenge those "gentlemen" to once again approach the masses with their same issues along with crowd pullers and see the reactions of the common masses – who still hold the master keys to the corridors of power. Let's prove our nationalist Indian credentials. There should not be any doubts in this regard, whatsoever!
