Crying wolf in Kolkata?
Some other questions: Why did the state government “give in” to a few violent youths and a small, unknown organization, but not pay attention to the silent cry of 100,000 Muslims and a respectable, established Muslim organization? Are we not sending the wrong message to the Muslims of India that the only way to get your voice heard is violence? Does that explain the bomb blasts in various cities all across India? Also, why is the government not ready to budge on Nandigram, which is a social, economic and justice problem? What made it listen to the demand of a few Muslims on an issue that is symbolic and of religious sentiment?
No to appeasement politics, says Kashif.
