RELIGIOUS FUNDAMENTALISM AND CONTEMPORARY WORLD

Religious fundamentalism is strengthening its ground almost all over the world, leading to frequent clashes. It is strongly observed in countries like Israel , India and Islamic countries. In US till now it's under the cover of white supremacy but soon it may De-envelope itself as we can see frequent clashes between far right white supremacists and (so called ) blacks and Muslims. Taking the case of India where the Jansangh party now called as BJP rose into power in 2014 and its continuing its second term ,has brought the wave of Religious fundamentalism under the name of hindutva ,which actually too way far from Hinduism which promotes tolerance. BJP preached Hindutva as a political ideology and gained a massive support from people as the majority in India are Hindus. In recent past a comment from a Meghalaya HC judge Justice S.R Sen said India should have declared itself a HINDU NATION like Pakistan declared itself as islamic. How we could expect such kinds of comments from a person who took the oath of Indian constitution which is secular in nature and spirit. A popular narrative of Hindu khatre mein hain (Hindu is in danger) should now be secularism khatre mein hain (secularism is in danger). Respecting others religion and eliminating orthodox principles which are not and should not be applicable today is something what we need today. Whenever the state mixes with religion ,it creates havoc and chaos ,and the world will surely bear the consequences of this.

India’s Security Post 26/11

                         India’s Security Post 26/11 26 November 2008,it was a cool evening ,everything seemed calm everywhere except the running of passengers to catch the local train-the lifeline of Mumbai. No one was expecting that after sometime all is going to change. A disaster came for which we were caught unprepared partially if not completely. TV sets were tuned into news channels as they started streaming the live coverage of terror attacks on multiple locations in Mumbai-the heart of Indian Economy. A cool-calm evening was turned into heart wrenching nightmare. It took 3 days for the attack to come to an end only when  NSG (NATIONAL SECURITY GAURDS)  in co-operation with the local security apparatus ended the siege by eliminating all the militants except one (Kasab) .The attackers did what they wanted to. That is to terrorize the civilian population, foreign tourists( probably jews) ,foreign investors ,etc. Ajmal kasab's interrogation and the surveillance sy

VIEWS OF DR.AMBEDKAR

            Dr.Ambedkar -His Writings and Speeches Friends , from today onwards i will be providing some excerpts from the book ' Dr. Babasaheb  Ambedkar -His Writings and Speeches '.                       ON HERO AND LEADERS "Show our critics a great man", he said " and they begin to what they call 'account for him ';not to worship him but take the dimensions of him." Hero worship is certainly not dead in India. Hero worship is demoralising for the devotee and dangerous to the country. I welcome the criticism in so far as it conveys a caution that you must know that your man is really great before you start worshipping him . For in these days, with the press in hand ,it is easy to manufacture great men.                   Even Carylyle who defended the worship of great men warned his readers how : "Multitudes of men have figured in history as great men who were false and selfish."He regretted deeply that " the world&#
