U.S. President Barack Obama’s statement on the need to uphold religious freedom has far-reaching implications The BJP government’s programmes such as ‘Make in India’, ‘Smart Cities’ and ‘Clean India’ can succeed only with the participation of Indian as well as foreign investors. Mr. Obama’s pertinent advice could not have come at a more appropriate time. With right-wing elements bent on dividing the country in the name of religion, and other telltale signs of an agenda that cannot be dismissed as mere oversight, the BJP government needs to come clean on this issue. The speech should be seen as a slap in the face of the government, which is trying to introduce an element of religion into almost every field using even the slightest opportunity. Right-wing groups are clearly attempting to incite communal hatred in the country. Mr. Obama’s words of caution show that the world is watching.In his final speech in India, Mr. Obama effectively punctured the euphoria of Prime Minister Na...

As Indians, let us sit back and think for a while about what we got from the high-profile visit of President Barack Obama. The Visit and After by Dr. Mohammad Manzoor Alam प्रधानमंत्री श्री नरेन्द्र मोदी और अमेरिका के राष्ट्रपति श्री बराक ओबामा 25 जनवरी, 2015 को नई दिल्ली में संयुक्त प्रेस वार्ता को संबोधित करते हुए। The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi with the US President, Mr. Barack Obama, during the Joint Press Interaction, in New Delhi on January 25, 2015. As Indians, let us sit back and think for a while about what we got from the high-profile visit of President Barack Obama. Two tangible and one intangible outcomes are visible at this moment, about 72 hours after the visit ended. The first and foremost seems to be the reassurance coming from a common Indo-US stance on china’s rise and how to deal with the fearsome dragon. That this point is number one becomes clear from the first 45 minutes of Modi-Obama parleys dedicated to this subject. Naturally, Ch...

by Dr. Mohammad Manzoor Alam In a burst of anti-Muslim violence in a village of Bihar’s Muzaffarpur district, hundreds of homes have been torched and the occupants made to flee for safety in the biting January cold. There are varying accounts of the dead. Officially, the figure stands at six, the unofficial figure being several times higher. The apparent “cause” of the violence is said to be a “love affair” between a Hindu boy and Muslim girl. Normally, in a civilised society such affairs are left to the discretion of the two adults concerned, who have the option of formalising their love in a civil marriage in a magistrate’s court, without hindrance from any side. However, in this story the young man was found murdered and buried near the home of the girl. This provoked the boy’s community to launch a full-fledged attack on the Muslim village. Hardly anyone ever cared to think for a moment that nobody would bury his murder victim in front of his own house. ...

New Delhi, Jan. 17: A Seminar on “Application of Equality Before Law in India: The Constitutional Mandate and Present Trend” was jointly organised by the Institute of Objective Studies, Democratic People’s Lawyers Association and Citizens’ Forum for Rule of Law at the Indian Law Institute, here today. Former Chief Justice of the Delhi High Court and a noted public figure, Justice Rajinder Sachar in his address held that the country was currently passing through a difficult phase of its history. However, there was no cause for despondency as we had not weakened yet, he said. Referring to secularism, he noted that it found mention in the Preamble to the Indian Constitution and was thus the key to the Constitution. Secularism, he said, was the basic structure of the Constitution. Secularism did not signify anti-religion as the state would have no religion of its own, according to a ruling of the Supreme Court of India. He contended that this vindicated the Hadith of the Prophet o...

Do Read and Do Share !!! Worth spending YOUR 5 minutes!! A woman baked chapatti for members of her family and an extra one for a hungry passerby. She kept the extra chapatti on the window sill, for whosoever would take it away. Every day, a hunchback came and took away the chapatti. Instead of expressing gratitude, he muttered the following words as he went his way: “The evil you do, remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” This went on, day after day. Every day, the hunchback came, picked up the chapatti and uttered the words: “The evil you do, remains with you: The good you do, comes back to you!” The woman felt irritated. “Not a word of gratitude,” she said to herself… “Everyday this hunchback utters this jingle! What does he mean?” One day, exasperated, she decided to do away with him. “I shall get rid of this hunchback,” she said.And what did she do? She added poison to the chapatti she prepared for him! As she was ab...

By Dr. Mohammad Manzoor Alam Whom would you prefer to be with, if given a chance: Sarpnath, or Nagnath? Will you prefer one over the other, or would you avoid their company in any case? After all, both are cobras, unfriendly creatures. However, there are Muslims who think there is a choice between the two. In this case, they are called BJP and RSS. There are Muslims who think BJP stands for development, and RSS with its front organisations stands for Hindutva. In this view, BJP is there to build railways, roads, airports, shipyards, office complexes, residential blocks and industrial cities, while RSS is there to build a Ram temple over Babri Masjid, start a violent campaign against a phantom called Love Jehad, ban meat eating and convert Christians and Muslims to Hinduism. Naturally, everybody will prefer BJP. But the point is that there is no choice between developmentwallah BJP andHindutvawallah RSS. Behind the victory of BJP in parliamentary polls there was the ...
