The 'Politics of Hate'..a Perspective

We all saw it on out television screens. Just the other day.

A young man, not yet 30, making one of the most inflammatory speeches in recent times. Categorically aiming for just one thing- To exploit the very fine, almost precarious balance that exists at any point between members of various Indian Communities.

An extra tilt on any one side and it's ruined.Threatening to spill over..
Or even worse.Actually do so.As it happened in Ayodhya, Godhra, Mumbai......

So what it is that he intended? And why did he do it.At an age when one would expect that the world view is much more broadbased, this really and truly was a revelation. Of how the politics of hate can be used, time and again to exploit a situation.

But in this case, the attempt failed. Or shall we say, was foiled? By members of his own party, the EC and the Indians and the International Community in general.

Way to go India And way to go, all Indians.

For it really is true.
United we stand and divided we.......
