Mangaluru: After Narendra Modi became the Prime minister ‘acche din’ have come only for the corporate sector, said Writer and human rights activist Ram Puniyani, while delivering a talk on “rising intolerance, future of Indian democracy”. The talk was organised by the Students Islamic Organisation of India and Karnataka Komu Souharda Vedike.
“Communal violence began with attacks on churches in Delhi and reached up to Dadri lynching incident and the number of incidents have shot up 40 to 50 per cent after Modi became the Prime Minister, the writer said.
“The Prime Minister and the right-wing groups spoke in different tones regarding minorities. But it is a well co-ordinated different voices to make one believe that the Prime Minister cared for minorities. It is a chalaak rajneeti. All right-wing groups and their associated fringe groups were hand in glove and worked in unity in the back and made a show off that they were different, he said.
The Rasthtriya Swayamsevak Sangh decided when exactly the Prime Minister should speak about minorities, he alleged. Puniyani alleged that the RSS and the Muslim League never participated in the country’s freedom struggle. If the RSS wanted to have Hindu rasthra the Mulim League was striving to have a ‘Muslim rashtra’.
