Do terrorists have any religion? This is a question which was raised by our Muslim brethren since terror was attached with Islam. Some radical groups like sangh parivar and VHP related Islam with terror by saying that “All Muslims are not terrorists but all terrorists are Muslims”. And BJP had also used this as a political plank in recent past by some way or the other.
These days we are listening a new term ‘Hindu terrorism’ or Hindu terrorist’ which is opposed by sangh parivar and BJP in a different way saying that one person can not malign the whole community. The case of Malegaon blast accused has brought some BJP and sangh parivar activists under the scanner of the ATS (Anti Terrorist Squad) for their alleged anti-national activities. The day after Sadhvi was arrested for her alleged link in Malegaon blast case, BJP president Rajnath Singh, who was found with Sadhvi Pragya in a picture, said that he was embarrassed to be found with her in the same frame. Party’s prime ministerial candidate LK Advani also distanced party from the accused and said taking a political correct stand, Sadhvi should be punished if found guilty.
All this changed suddenly as Hindutva center authority, RSS, decided to support her. And BJP also found that it is loosing an emotive issue for the next LS elections, Advani asked the government not to politicise the issue and don’t mix religion with terrorism. He also said that a spiritual leader should not be treated in a barbaric manner. These statements can not be justified which are coming form a party which have been claiming to be the saviour of country from terrorism and asked for the strictest law for the terrorists. BJP is the same party, which has opposed the legal assistance by Jamia Milia University to it students, who have allegedly behind the bomb blasts in Delhi. BJP is also trying to malign the image of the Maharashtra ATS by saying that its actions are politically motivated and unprofessional in its investigation. BJP has forgotten the national interest for fulfilling its political agendas and this trend is alarming for the nation. In the recent past BJP president Rajnath Singh called Rahul Gandhi a bachha in politics but some one should tell him that mature leaders think before they speak, as BJP leaders didn’t do in Sadhvi’s matter.
BJP leaders and other outfits those are supporting Sadhvi and other accused of Malegaon blast should give the answers to the people of India, why did they attach religion with terrorism and see every member of the community -Islam- as a suspect. These question are still lying unanswered.
