No Untouchables Among Hindus Until Islamic Invasions: Vishwa HINDU Parishad'

[Kabira]

LoL, what makes you think, i object?
Most of my friends are Dalits who recite shlokas,religious texts and do Yajnas(sacrifical offering to gods) better than most modern,city dwelling Brahmins. Infact, some households call them to recite mantras in their homes.
They have more knowledge about hindu religion than other atheist,modern hindus .They practise it everyday in their lives.

itna jhoot bolne ki kya zarorat hai? As if we don't know how dalits are treated, first allow them in to your mandirs before asking to recite hindu texts.

Vishwa Hindu Parishad today claimed that the practice of untouchability was to be blamed on "oppression by Islamic invaders" and underlined the need to treat Dalits with respect.

"There were no untouchables among the Hindus until the Islamic invasions began. The Hindu society comprised four varnas - based on occupations - and this division of labour was in no way hierarchical. All were treated as equals," VHP patron Ashok Singhal said here.

He was addressing 'Virat Hindu Sammelan' - organised on the occasion of the VHP's golden jubilee - which was attended by members and office-bearers of the sangh parivar outfit besides BJP MPs Shyama Charan Gupta (Allahabad), Keshav Prasad Maurya and Vinod Sonkar (Kaushambi).

The VHP patriarch alleged, "Islamic invaders had, many centuries ago, compelled a section of Hindus to take up menial tasks like scavenging as they had refused to convert to Islam despite untold acts of oppression."

"The time has come to set right this wrong. I call upon Hindus to give the Dalits the respect they deserve. They must, henceforth, be viewed not as untouchables but as Dharmyoddhas -- those who chose to engage in menial tasks and suffer humiliation but did not agree to give up their Dharma," Singhal said.

In an oblique reference to the victory of BJP under the leadership of Narendra Modi in the Lok Sabha polls last year, Singhal said, "2014 saw Delhi being ruled by a true Hindu for the first time after Prithviraj Chauhan" but added "many things, like banning cow slaughter, remain to be done.”

The VHP patriarch also asserted that there was a need to "protect the virtue of Hindu girls" and take "effective steps against conversion of Hindus to other faiths and the demographic imbalance that has been emerging thereof".

* Finish Dawood Ibrahim, Hafeez Sayeed through commando raids

* Save the holy cow from being converted, prevent breeding with Jersey or Holstein varieties

* Left wing extremism is outcome of spread of Christianity

* Make cow the national animal

* No Muslim billionaires in India

* Conversion to Hinduism can bring world peace

He needs to check the date of Manusmriti

even if he doesn't the point is he should check for how long there is Hindu rule so why the Hindu rule failed to do away with cast system?

Give ur Sisters / Daughters to Dalit Groom will make world beleive you Love your own Countryman

We do not consider our sisters/daughters as "objects" to be "given" to anyone.

If the dalit groom is Rich, Good-looking and Educated, I doubt many would object

Manu Smriti has no mention of Touchability/Untouchability.

Its mentions Shudras, i.e not overtly.

But for the sake of the prosperity of the worlds he caused the Brahmana, the Kshatriya, the Vaisya, and the Sudra to proceed from his mouth, his arms, his thighs, and his feet.

91. One occupation only the lord prescribed to the Sudra, to serve meekly even these (other) three castes.

You need to read more about the Hindutva/RSS movement.

You need to read more about the Hindutva/RSS movement.

I've read enough about it to know how much racism and discrimination exists. You're right though. The ISI is responsible! I rest my case. You win!

Yes, there are only 4 castes in Hinduism. Untouchables is modern day concept right? And shuhdras are supposed to be dalits who serve high caste.

While the western media made ISIS a bigger threat that what it actually is, a more barbaric terrorist organization have taken the helm of India. The only difference between hindutva and ISIS is that ISIS doesn't have nukes while these lunatics are the official representatives of nuclear power india.

ISIS is killing people day and night and you saying it is not a big threat because it is killing Shias and Non-Muslims and a organised Hindu org is more barbaric. Would it be terrorist org your little country would not be alive.
