Blasts in Malegaon now; Expect riots soon

At least 30 persons were killed at Malegaon in Nashik district of Maharashtra in blasts that occurred near a mosque.

There is no wonder. Expect riots soon.

Consider these: There is a raging debate about singing Vande Mataram.

A verdict in the 1993 Mumbai blasts is expected soon. The Uttar Pradesh election is due soon. And the BJP is in total disarray.

Don’t you see a perfect setting for blood on the streets. Do you think those singing Vande Mataram would be more patriotic than those who do not? That is what many people think.

But what the BJP is going to tell the Uttar Pradesh electorate is not exactly that. What the BJP is going to tell the UP electorate in no uncertain terms is that those who oppose the mandatory singing of Vande Mataram are anti-nationals.

All anti-nationals are Muslims, the BJP would gladly swear. And all Muslims are terrorists by birth as well as anti-nationals by nature.

Do you see a recipe for a riot in the aforementioned lines?
If not, you are ignorant. Or it is in your convenience to feign ignorance.

This is a nation born in bloodshed. And blood will continue to flow as long as ignorance is the mantra of a vast majority. And that will be ensured by our political class, Right, Left and Centre. Jai Hind.
