Let sanity prevail over Sangh Pariwar!

AT THE outset, every Hindu should condemn the attacks on churches in various parts of India, particularly in Karnataka and Orissa.


The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) may be the only political party in India, which is sincerely concerned about Hindus, Hindu dharma and injustice meted out to Hindus and their beliefs in the name of secularism. It has every right to do so and for this reason alone, Hindus are indebted to this party. No doubt, at times of crisis only BJP has come to the rescue of Hindus in the highly biased political atmosphere.


However, this will not suffice to win the hearts of millions of Hindus. When the highly biased United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government is losing no opportunity for exposing them , the BJP has never utilised this opportunity to expose them, but chose physical attack on churches. It should realise that Hindus would never appreciate this barbaric dance of violence, but on the other hand it may even boomerang and lose the sympathy of its fold.


Even a devout and highly religious Hindu or a political Hindu ideologue would never appreciate or even justify the attacks on churches and on the other hand they even criticise the BJP, with which they rode to power in Karnataka!


It is true that under UPA’s rule, in the past four and half years, evangelism has increased multifolds, and money and manpower is spent in millions to convert the gullible.

Undoubtedly, the conversions are the forcible ones, as in India baring very few incidents where the individual approaches the church to convert to Christianity; every conversion is otherwise is obviously a forcible one as 90 per cent of the gullible are illiterates.


In Andhra Pradesh, the situation is that the chief minister himself is a Christian and his Brahmin Hindu son-in-law (reported to be forcibly converted to Christianity to be accepted to take hand of his daughter, his lover) is now actively propagating Christianity alongwith his family members. Few more ministers in his cabinet are Christians.


With the moral and political support of the AP government, the missionaries made an attempt to grab one of the seven holy hills of Tirupathi Balaji, for constructing a huge church to attract and divert millions of visiting pilgrims to the newly built church.
