Sorry. I beg to differ with you. Unlike writes protest against communal killings, Scientists protest against science and rationalism is entire ly different The ruling party on one side stresses on Digitized India, And on the side opposing Scientists protests. Is it not contradicting its own policies ?
Intolerance towards science will ruin the country. In my opinion there is a sense and purpose behind this protest.

These writers and scientists are doing this only to gain their name in media. Where these people have gone when Sikhs were killed and emergency was imposed in India. Many such incidents have happened in the past but no one came forward. Now what is happening in the states is under the control of state government, state government is not responsible for that. But these secular people only have to protest against Modi government.

Now, this time joined the bandwagon of writers and artists who are protesting against the growing intolerance towards attack on rationalism, reasoning and Science.
P.M. Bhargava a scientist, writer administrator is returning the Padma Bhushan. This growing protests are really a challenge for the ruling party. What the ruling party is going to do?
Only time will decide.

Vinod Kumar Gulati replied to the topic Indo Pak Relationship.
<p>@vijay:Beyond the geographical boundaries, Bharat is largely considered as a Hindu Nation but the successive governments continued to practise secularism, more so as appeasement-oriented policy, perhaps to keep the friendship with the muslim countries at ease. Why I propose for the unification is for the correction of the wrong what we had committed in 1947 of accepting the division on the basis of the religions. Why did we accept it at all ?Being a Hindu Rashtra, we are not taking stern action in J & K against those who compelled Kashmiri Hindus to migrate elsewhere within India. Hindus are in minority there. If officially or mentally we can not think of unification, we must redefine our secularism too by applying uniform policies for all the citizens at par. Indo-pak relationship can be given a brighter form by strictness on our stand inhouse. Pakistan finds its friends easily within Indian muslims because of religious linkage and such friends become sleepy spies sometime as we found very recently in Jammu Kashmir when our army arrested one terrorist alive. Not only this, we find Engineer Rashid type politicians and separatists who speak of Pakistan more than Bharat in spite of living in this country and we are not taking action against them under the treason with the country. We are Hindus and we say proudly as such, this community deserves to have all the rights what it deserves after the slavery of so many centuries. This community in its totality has all the vigour and energy to become a super power again with the maximum tolerance and patience. Other powers are also successful even after remaining strict to their native language and ethics.<p>

@Gulati : I fully appreciate your sentiments as you belong to the population which got uprooted due to partition. I also accept the fact that large percent of Muslims in the sub- continent are converts from Hinduism, either out of choice or force and thus are closely related to the ethos of undivided India. This was a contributory reason for both communities living cordially since long. However we are talking of today's times. There is a significant section of our population which wants India to become a Hindu country just like Pakistan is an Islamic country.
The ill treatment of minorities in Pakistan, reducing there share from 12% in 1947 to less than 2% today is used as a weapon by these forces. Also secularism is blamed for giving minorities more preference by these groups.
Pakistan has now traveled a long distance and become a nuclear power. Why should it lose its identity by merging with India. These are romanticised dreams which will never get fulfilled. However on a cultural front personal contacts can always take place. Unification is a very very distant dream perhaps not worth chasing.

Totally agree. Differences are far too many to even think of a possibility like that. Being cordial with each other is all we can hope for. I have stayed in Punjab for quite some time and I know many of the families there have gone through the pain of partition and have relatives across the border. But I've also seen the tension there. Even India Pakistan cricket match used to seem like a war !!
I agree, hoping and wishing for a unified Pakistan, India and Bangladesh is a distant dream and just that, a dream. People have moved a long way apart and no one wants the union to happen and it is not even feasible and practical. So all we should hope and for and work for is something on the lines of European Union, existing peacefully along with others and not generally interfering in each other's internal affairs. But that too is something that only India can try and achieve, hoping that to happen from other two is again impossible.

Kalyani Nandurkar replied to the topic Politicians and Tantriks .
Politicians are supposed to be leading the country and the reason they are in their positions is because people have chosen them to be there in the hopes of taking the country towards progress and development. If they themselves start putting their faith in tantriks and bengali babas, then it is a matter of concern.
