Shah is afraid there will be something like train burning again? I thought people would have learnt their lessons.

[VIDEO] Attempts of Muslim genocide in India could lead to civil war: Naseeruddin Shah
- Thread starter MenInG
- Start date
Ind has way more religious freedom than the whole of middle east and other sub continent nations. It's just become fashionable for the groups to make these statements..
There was no genocide. There were hindu muslim riots which was very unfortunate and sad as even one human life is precious. And an fyi. There were people arrested trials happened and people were jailed and.punished from both religions in the court of law which is how it should be. No excuse for lawlessness and killings - if you indulge then the law will take its course irrespective of religion.
Inconvenient ? What are you even talking about ? Do you even understand what I said in my previous post ? And please make sure that you don't quietly slip away like last time if you want to discuss Gujrat riots. IIRC in a previous discussion few months ago you were not even aware of the root cause for that riot.
How are Ravish Kumar, Barkha Dutt , Shekhar Gupta etc still in business then ?

Barkha and Shekhar are lightweights, they don't engage anymore in meaningful criticism of Modi. They've learnt the game of self-censoring after watching the plight of other media. Ravish of course was forced to resign from the mainstream NDTV due to the impending Modi (Adani) takeover. Now he's on some obscure youtube channel that nobody cares about.

Modi is responsible for the 2001 anti-muslim pogrom and even Amit Shah is happy to acknowledge that.

Indian state withdraws protection of witnesses in 2002 Gujarat riots cases
The Gujarat state government in India has revoked the security protection provided to witnesses, lawyers and a former judge in some of the most significant legal cases emerging from the country’s 2002 religious riots.
The Gujarat riots took place over 20 years ago after 59 people, mostly volunteers of Hindu organisations, were burnt alive inside a train that was set on fire at Godhra station by a suspected Muslim mob.
The Sabarmati Express massacre on 27 February 2002 led to retaliatory violence across the state on an unprecedented scale with deep social and political ramifications, irreversibly altering relations between India’s majority Hindu and minority Muslim communities.
While government figures state over 1,000 people were killed in the riots that followed, unofficial estimates indicate at least 2,000 people – mostly Muslims – were massacred, alonside scores of cases of rape and widespread looting and destruction of homes and properties.
Police and government officials were accused of directing the rioters and giving them a list of Muslim-owned properties, while India’s prime minister Narendra Modi – who was chief minister of Gujarat at the time – was accused of condoning the violence.
Suspicions that Mr Modi quietly supported the riots led the US, UK and EU to deny him a visa at the time, moves that were later reversed, while a committee appointed by India’s Supreme Court found there was “no prosecutable evidence” of complicity involving either Mr Modi or senior officials from his state government. Mr Modi has always denied any wrongdoings.

Modi is as responsible for 2002 riots as Manmohan is responsible for Mumbai attacks.
Other than that, he did an excellent job containing the riots which was caused by islamists burning hindus in a train. Army landed the very next day. Congress rule and congress ecosystem tried years to pin blame on him but could not prove anything despite having the entire state machinery. Even the officer Bhatt proved to be a congress stooge exchanging emails with them.
Now the only hope of liars is to keep repeating this lie everytime hoping that it sticks.

RIP, the secularism in India
======Online hate sows Muslim fears as India votes
After his brother was murdered in anti-Muslim riots, Pervez Qureshi watched the videos he believes incited the killers, part of a wave of hatred fomented on social media ahead of India’s elections.India has a long and grim history of sectarian clashes between the Hindu majority and its biggest minority faith, but analysts warn that increasingly available modern technology is being used to deliberately exploit divisions.
“Videos and messages were shared on Facebook and WhatsApp which contained inflammatory language and incitement to violence,” Qureshi told AFP, recalling the attack on his brother Faheem in February in the northern city of Haldwani in Uttarakhand state. “It poisoned the atmosphere.”
Qureshi said his brother, Faheem, 32, was killed by Hindu neighbours after they first torched his car.
Nearly 550 million more Indians have access to the internet than when Prime Minister Narendra Modi came to power a decade ago, according to figures from the Internet and Mobile Association of India.
Modi’s Hindu-nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is widely expected to win a third term in elections that begin on April 19.
Part of his popularity can be attributed to his party’s masterful online campaign team, staffed by thousands of volunteers who champion his good deeds and achievements.
Modi’s use of social media “awakens nationalism and patriotism among the youth in every corner of the country”, said Manish Saini, a youth leader of a BJP “IT Cell” in Uttarakhand state, who works online to reach voters.
‘Atmosphere of hatred’
Critics however accuse the BJP’s sophisticated social media apparatus of also fanning the flames of division.
Haldwani community leader Islam Hussain said tensions were already high before February’s violence, after months of incendiary social media posts calling Muslims “outsiders”.
“It was said that due to the increasing population of Muslims, the social demography of Uttarakhand is changing”, Hussein said. “Right-wing social media cells have a big role in creating an atmosphere of hatred against Muslims.”

Modi Govt bans Muharram procession in Srinagar
The Modi-led Indian government banned the 10th Muharram procession in Srinagar today, citing the dubious pretext of potential disturbances to peace and law and order issues.
Meanwhile, authorities have arrested dozens of people in connection with an open case filed against those who raised pro-Palestine and anti-Israel slogans during the 8th Muharram procession in Srinagar, the other day.

No bro, its too common among people of JK as they are true Muslims like Palestinians too. Unfortunately Muslims in other places are not as tough as these brethren of us.

I mean authorities opened cases against people who supported Palestine. That was absurd.
Looks like you misunderstood my post. I obviously want people to support Palestine.

This thread is from 2021 when Dharam Sansad called for the genocide, I think the OP has the details. Naseer was reacting to their call. I don't think its laughable. If there is talk of it, it will garner such reactionsMuslim genocide in India
Naseem bhai not getting smart with age.
The original News source was from The Wire which is a known for its extreme left and Hindu & Modi hating News outlet. Its founder is a Marxist nut. We have to take this journalism seriously.
Just check out their site. Its all Hindu hate and they blame everything on Hindus and RSS. They don't even hide their agenda.

and I quote from the OP, below... Are you suggesting this never happened and this Annapurna guy never made that statement and it was falsified by whoever reported it? Or are you claiming the dude who issued that statement is a left wing nut?
I am confused now
I don't know who said what.
But if the story is coming from the wire, I will have to put a big question mark on the news article.

Well, here is an out of the box suggestion:
"Perhaps read the OP and do the research?"
Even a defective clock is right twice a day, you know what I mean? The outlet might not be credible but what they reported as a fact could indeed be a fact and not an opinion piece.
It becomes laughable when it doesn’t impact or affect you

In 2014 After 7-8 months of BJP government’s inception at Center, Naseeruddin Shah said that “India is now no longer remain a tolerant country”, he was fuming at that time. At that time We thought Naseeruddin Shah will leave India and settle in any neighbouring “tolerant” Countries, but After 10 years passed, he is still enjoying modern, lavish, progressive and free life in India.

Honestly, I feel it is reprehensible on willy nilly people throw out the word "Genocide". It is extremely insulting to the past actual victims of genocides where entire cultures and civilizations got wiped out. Just degrade the severity of actual heinousness that has happened in the past.
Minorities are facing persecution every part of the world. That doesn't make it genocide.
Communal riots happen almost all the time in mixed communities, that doesn't make it genocide.
Millions have died in the recognized in the past or almost entire cultures wiped out, understand the scale of what the number of deaths mean.
Don't mock the actual victims of horrible atrocities to score tiny brownie points in your heads.
