Anyways you are on the thread pls offer your views about the above posted thread. What you think scientist and intellectuals doing good in this regard.
Well I have my own views..... At times it is very confusing who is the culprit.....When i look at it there 3 of them who are responsible for the current
1) Those idiots who associate themselves with the word "Hindu" & some sena and call them selves as the flag bearers of Hindu's
2) The politicians and vested interests who play the religious card
3) The Media
Culprit 1
Well there are morons in every society and we have our share vanara senas ..... These guys are religious extremists and for them they decide what is right and what is wrong, several of these outfits are full of goons and for them law of the land doesnt make any sense..... But luckily they have little support in our society....These morons are working over time after Modi is in power, and they some how believe that Modi will protect them..... These idiots doesnt realise modi is power for development not for making India a Hindu rashtra...
Culprit 2
Religious politics plays a very important role in a society like india, where you have huge population of minorities...... I guess the only party which does not play such politics is BJP.... Because their agenda is clear they play they politics clearly, that cannot be said about other parties lead by INC, and most of these parties have hidden agenda and they will do anything for the vote banks, but the issue here is their politics is not visible to common man......

Have been watching Indian media for a long time and last few years the things are gone pretty bad, every channel works for TRP.... and some one there is an unwritten rule which says "Negative news bring more viewer ships"..... And with in the channel there are key editors with their own interest, for ex: Rajdeep, Barkha........
Some how these channels have learnt that they are there to criticise..... It is ok to criticise but then you should not spend your entire time for criticism.......
Now i will tell you how these 3 works together.....
There was an incident of police raid in kerala house in Delhi based on a complaint raised by a member of some sena.....
Culrpit 1 ) He saw some face book (or some other social media) post which says Kerala house sells beef, our man worked overtime made issue out of it....... His contention Cow meat is being sold in Delhi, Later it was clarified to him that there is something called buffalo meat which is also called Beef......
Culprit 2) The political parties took this as an opportunity and started protests (by the way local body election in kerala is scheduled in a weeks time) and they tried every trick in book to take political mileage
Culprit 3 ) Today when i opened "The HIndu" (which is supposed to be one of the decent dailies in south) the main news is, Beef is back in menu in kerala house, as if there is no other issue or another news to discuss...... The channels both english and regional celebrated this issue with their prime time talk shows......
But all the above are part of World's largest democracy....... Scientists is entitled to have views on these events, and he is entitled to raise his concern, because we are democracy.....
