Once again like a broken record Mukul Kesavan associate professor of Jamia Millia Islamic University in Delhi has indulged in a rant against Hindus and the BJP. Under the title, ‘ Rise against Fascism’ published in the Sunday Guardian he writes that Indian Majoritarianism and RSS are a Nazi variant. He starts with a stupid claim that only Hindus are allowed to be members of the RSS. Would a Christian organisation or a Muslim organization allow a Hindu to be a member?
He repeats the lies of Hindu violence and discrimination against a minority. India has many minorities living happily. The Zoroastrians, Tibetan Buddhists, Bahai’s and many more. Recently even Muslims from Afghanistan have settled in Delhi.
If Hindus were violent and Fascists how is it possible for Kesavan to write such hate filled articles against Hindus from Delhi? The fact is that Kesavan is Fascist mini Hitler. His hates Hindus like Hitler hated Jewish people. He talks about Lynching’s and Bulldozers used to crush homes of criminals and Love Jihad. Kesavan must swallow the unpalatable truth which is that India is a majority Hindu country and Hindu values and ethos will prevail. Every country is a Majoritarian country where the values of the majority prevail. Kesavan repeats another lie that medieval Mosques are being destroyed. He thinks that the British readers are gullible and will accept his lies. The so called medieval mosques were Hindu temples. He talks about the Citizenship Act and it being anti Muslim. Every country has a right to expel illegal immigrants and secure its borders.
Kesavan talks about the right wing AfD party in Germany. He claims parties like AfD and BJP have a sinister obsession with minorities. The former PM of Germany, Merkel allowed one million Syrians refugee to settle in the country.
A few weeks ago a Syrian killed three people at a musical event in Germany. Does Kesavan expect Germans to say to the killer, ‘ sorry you are angry with our country please let us correct out mistakes’. Kesavan must get through his thick head that a minority is not always right just because it is a minority and a majority is not always wrong just because it is a majority. Minorities can also be bullies, extremists and criminal also.
Here is a challenge for Kesavan. If you are really concerned about minorities write about the recent attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh and the vandalising of their temples. You will not because you are blinded by your hatred of Hindus. You and people like Salil Tripathi and Suzanna Arundhati Roy are burning with hatred of Hindus. You are the Fascists.
