suni51 created new topic Let's discuss facts.
Let's begin with Nehru Ji, he allowed division of the country into two parts Indira further divided it into three, the reason Pakistan reacting so violently. Rajiv wanted to intervene in Shri Lanka  Now the crown price wants to divide it further into many pieces so he can keep one of the divided pieces for himself. Sindhiya has already said shouting slogan against motherland is no crime and threatening slogans are nothing but freedom of expression.

Everyone is talking everything but avoiding the main question- is it okay to talk against their own country and go Scott free? People are suggesting every possible rule in favor of anti national elements just to catch few votes in future elections.

Urdu is considered as the language of Muslims. People in India are afraid of Muslims especially when they speak in Urdu. The terrorists from Pakistan can come to India at any time. When people read or speak in Urdu, the innocent people of India always think about the Pakistani terrorist because they cannot forget about the terrorist attack of Pakistani people in our country. They are always in tensions.

eminent advocate Prsahant Bhushan has expressed his anguish as to why the police are not registering case of fabricating video in JNU case. This is really a serious matter- more serious than sedition. http://www.indiatomorrow.net/eng/why-police-not-registering-fir-for-fabricated-video-asks-prashant-bhushan

Flogging as a punishment exists in the Army act 1950 in India.  It is part of the statute of punishments in many countries like Singapore and China. Most Islamic nations have flogging ( whipping) with a lash. This punishment has been seen to have a salutary  effect  and offences like sedition, insulting national flag etc can be put under this.  I wonder if it  should be introduced in India.  In my view the students who held a meeting  for Afzal Guru is a fit case for such a punishment.

Flogging is a kind of punishment to control people by beating with stick, rod or any other kind of such tools. When parents beat their children with stick for their wrong deeds, it is also a kind of flog. There is no mistakes for such light punishment because it is good for children to learn discipline. Earlier days, flogging was allowed in school also. Teachers were allowed to beat students for their wrong deeds. But today, teachers do not have the permission to use stick to punish children. Teachers are advised to change the children with positive words instead of beating with stick.

@Usha and @ Kalyani have mutually agreed that white persons are adventurous and carefree in taking risks. Yes that is how it comes out in the final TV presentations. One of the main  reason is that they belong to a few capital rich countries where finances are liberally available for supporting such activities. In the process they make documentaries which are seen worldwide and earn revenue. Imagine an Indian wants to make such documentary. Who will support his venture? As of today I do not think presently any system exists where crores of rupees will be given to shoot such themes as are shown in Discovery and similar channels. Till such time we will continue to be entertained by white skin people. Also we spend our energy on secularism, communalism, nationalism, casteism, regionalism etc issues living little energy on exploration or similar activities.

We should follow Pakistan, Singapore, Dubai, Canada, China, US, France in matters of punishments.

What you are suggesting will happen but say after 20 - 30 years when larger number of Indians will have studied English.

It is sad but is happening nevertheless. Right wing is anti Muslim, left wing is supposed to be anti Hindu, Urdu is associated with Muslims, Hindi no one  wants to read because English is language of bread and butter in form of jobs. All confusing.

vijay replied to the topic nationalism saffron style .
When people of one caste (rajputs)could not stand united MG Singh expects all people of all castes to remain united irrespective of fissures  and exploitation within. Nationalism evolves over a period of time and cannot be thrust. Jats looted and burnt properties of non jats in recent agitation in Haryana. Both were Hindus.

We forget that Hinduism is not a monolith religion. The Dalits who were suppressed considerably through centuries cannot be expected to worship the gods which the upper castes worship. Today upper caste politicians are wanting their gods to be god of all Hindus and this will get resented. Sedition is a very serious charge and should be applied very carefully. Police can get anyone to say what they want, that is why their evidence is not accepted by the Courts.

In many countries where flogging is there crime continues. In China mostly corrupt officials are jailed for long periods or also shot, yet corruption flourishes even at higher levels.

Urdu is a rich language developed in Avadh and Lucknow. Urdu has been court language for many years. Still the terminology used in courts in U.P. is mostly Urdu. The phrases and words like 'talaqnama', 'ikrarnama', 'nuzool'  are urdu. The lyrics in Hindi movies are mostly Urdu.  But reading Urdu paper is dangerous. People may suspect you as Pakistani agent.  Somebody was just reading some Urdu magazine. But co passengers viewed him as Pakistani supporter only for this.  They identify Urdu with Muslim and Muslim with Pakistan. Obviously this is a consequence of the venomous environment deliberately generated by extreme right wing fascist forces.  https://in.news.yahoo.com/wrong-read-urdu-metro-strange-144500373.html

But when grown ups behave like brutes and are a threat to the society flogging might prove to be one of the solutions to check them although many of the hardened criminals may not even flinch at this ! Very true, but it will be effective if one or 2 of the JNU students are given this dose.  The dose will be more appropriate to the advocates who created lawlessness in court and the saffron elements/ others including TV channels fabricating videos to allege 'sedition'.

Number of mobile apps are available in the market to translate the languages. English is the main language that we use for official matters. But earlier days, very few English medium schools were in our country. Therefore, people got education in their native languages. Today, there are number of English medium schools in our country and most of the students are studying in English medium schools. So, language is not a serious problem for the next generations. it is right that much students are studying in English medium school and Hindi medium school have English as compulsory subject form 1st standard. It is also fact that 60% of Indian population is living in village and their English is not good like others, so it is practical not possible to use Roman alphabates.   For many, English may be difficult but Roman alphabet can be uniformly used. Many of us write Hindi as well as other languages in roman script on social sites like Facebook. Apart from use of Roman script, the technical and professional terms in English can be adopted in Hindi and other languages also. This will make things easy as a result of uniformity in script and terminology of technical and professional terms. For example, it is okay to use the word 'gravitation' in all languages instead of translating as 'gurutvakarshan' etc.

usha manohar wrote: According to reports all students detained are guilty of sedation and the police have said that they enough evidence to prove it... http://indiafacts.org/fact-sheet-jnu-mahishasura-day-contr…/ Here is a glimpse of what goes on in JNU ...no doubt most campuses have a certain amount of nefarious activity going on but this beats everything , calling Goddess Durga a sex worker !!!!...and we have idiots like Rahul Gandhi and his cronies who probably dont even know the head or tail of what is happening supporting the community simply because it suits him and he is around here ! Durga Puja, Mahisur puja- all are Hindu rituals. This is just a manifestation of contradictions among Hindus. Those celebrating Durga and Mahishaur both are Hindus.  If Durga Puja is okay, puja of another deity Mahihasur should also be okay. There are many deities and personalities worshiped by Hindus. Ironically,  There is also a bitch temple nearby Jhansi region (U.P.) that I mentioned in another thread. There is also a temple recently made for Dadua bandit in Mathura District.  So this is not an issue. As regards pornography, even MLA including those of ruling party have been found watching porn in state assembly itself.   These are bad but do not constitute sedition, which is being alleged so forcefully. any way, the accused have surrendered before police. So let us wait. It is also well known that most of the evidence supporting allegation of sedition is in shape of doctored videos. Ultimately truth will come to surface during judicial process. So let us wait.

MG Singh wrote: @ Gulshan Kumaji, why give this incident a communal cover? It is a simple law and order problem. We in India like Rahul make mountains of mole hills. Saffron flag as well as extreme Hindutva right wing organization is involved. This is not a simple individual law breaking issue. This was organized activity.  Nobody is making mountains out of mole hills. But the saffron elements expect that their organized lawlessness and rank communal activities be considered trifling.
