Too Many Camels Intruding Into Bharat’s Tent!

Hyderabad: The old story of a camel in the Arab’s tent is being repeated in India, that is Bharat! With a plethora of lollipops, incentives and concessions such as subsidy for Haj pilgrimage including Rs.50,000–Rs 60,000 equivalent to Saudi Riyal towards pocket money per person, hefty scholarships and pensions of all kinds, free or concessional housing and what not ; these so called minorities are like ants which eat away the very fabric of our society gradually but certainly.

While the term ' minority ' is an invention of post-Constitution era, due to the vested interests the game of taking the 'majority' for a ride is going on since over 7 decades! While it is undoubtedly true that the real minorities are the poor people belonging to all castes, religions, languages, creeds and regions, giving a special treatment to certain communities for the sake of appeasement is certainly not desirable.

The plague of minorityism has spread so violently to our body politic that the avowed principles of unity and integrity of the nation are in peril. A classic example of the shamelessness of the so called leaders of minorities is with regard to the land given for the construction of a mosque by the Supreme Court with a noble view of assuaging the feelings of the Muslim minority over demolition of Babri structure. A section of the Muslims considering their birth right to have a mosque at the cost of the public exchequer has been shedding tears over the Apex court 's gesture of giving land for the construction. If a Ram temple of gigantic structure has been built in Ayodhya today, the credit goes to millions of devotees who have liberally contributed for its construction. On the other hand, the wounded Muslims consider it as their fundamental right to suck the funds of the infidel Hindus who pay to the public exchequer in the form of direct and indirect taxes.

The Holy book Quran specifically forbids its followers to construct a mosque with the help of infidels (non-believers). Any kind of help either in the form of money or in kind given by the infidels for the construction of a mosque is considered ‘Haram’ by the holy Quran. This being so, why all this brouhaha over allotment of court ordered land and non-extension of financial support by the government for construction of a mosque at some 25 km away from the Ayodhya Ram temple?

A case of discriminatory example in favour of the Muslims is the State of Telangana which recently sanctioned Rs.2.46 crore to the State Waqf Board towards creation of amenities like water, electricity etc., for hosting a three day conference of the infamous Tablighi Jamaat. It is well known that the Tablighi Jamat has a dubious history as the hardcore Jehadi organization. It is banned in several countries, both Islamic and non- Islamic.

The curtain of opacity over its organizational structure, membership strength, details of individual and organizational members and sources of funds creates legible doubts about the genuineness and its real nature. Still the Telangana government patronised its 3 day international congregation through the Waqf Board! This Tablighi Jamat is the same organization which had conducted similar congregation in Nizamuddin, New Delhi, in blatant violation of corona guidelines during the corona epidemic. Not only that, hundreds of its participants had escaped from Delhi and spread the corona virus throughout the country. They also had abused, insulted and assaulted the medical and paramedical staff on duty while its Delhi headquarters head had gone underground to avoid the arrest. The reasons for the 'special' love of the state government' for Tablighi Jamat must be investigated by the central agencies such as National Investigation Agency (NIA).Beware, the modern day camels are at the old game of intruding into the tents of the innocent gullible Arabs. Any neglect towards their activities will only result into the repetition of this old story.
