WHETHER REPUBLIC HEADING FOR AUTHORITATIVE MAJORITARIAN RULE ???
Since much talked about honeymoon days of Modi government are over, the governance and policies of the Modi government are being discussed though largely for wrong reasons that too just within eight months.Unsure of its political hegemony in upper house,as many as nine ordinances have been issued within eight months-an extraordinary constitutional remedy,even virtually criticized by Rashtrapati of the nation.By passing routine parliamentary procedures for any legislation symbolizes both contempt and authoritarian mindset.Otherwise also words like i and me have become integral aspect of the public rhetoric of honourable Prime Minister.Besides stringent control of the subordinate ministries, for all practical purposes,he has established his credentials as de facto foreign minister too.
There is genuine concern,how ruling polity  is encouraging policies of communal divide and obscurantism ?Constitution wise,our nation is autonomous democratic republic under which each and every citizen,irrespective of caste,religious creed and color, has been accorded right for freedom of expression ,liberty and religious faith.Policies being patronized either directly or indirectly are not only in gross violation of constitutional fundamental rights but also question the very essence of the established rule of law.
The divisive and nefarious initiative was undertaken by non else than RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat [Rashtr Guru],who emphatically declared that secular and democratic republic was in fact Hindu Rashtr and its all inhabitants were in fact Hindus.Following the lead, other big wigs of the saffron brigade like Sakshi Maharaj, Giriraj Singh,Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti,Yogi Adityanath,Praveen togadia and Laxmikant Vajpayee most vociferously followed the divisive and nefarious agenda.The most notable fatwa's were-Muslims not loyal to Modi are at liberty to migrate to Pakistan and by the end of year 2021,India will be full fledged pure Hindu nation minus Muslims and christians.Accordingly on 21st January, Catholic Bishops Conference of India was compelled enough to request Prime Minister for maintaining democratic and secular ethos of the nation.They also expressed their serious concern for frequent vandalization of the Churches by fringe elements and saffronisation of art,culture and education.
Muslim Fundamentalists,inspired by Hindu fatwas lost no time to counter and Asaduddin Owaisi,member Parliament and president of AIMIAM went to the extreme of describing all Indians as born Muslims who are later conditioned for non Muslims religiosity.
Today RSS agenda has become order of the day particularly in all those states which are under BJP governance.History is being redefined and rediscovered and educational system saffron ized ,strictly and exclusively in accordance to RSS agenda. Besides Gujarat and other states,latest to join holy race is Haryana whose education minister Rambilas Sharma , was least apologetic to declare that we want total saffronisation of education  and we have sought divine expertise of Dinanath Batra.
Bigwigs of ruling polity have already expressed                their intention to accord Geeta the status of national scripture.It will be interesting to know the response of ruling polity if in near future,identical status is demanded for Quran,Bible and Guru Granth Sahib.It looks as if various divisive shades are following well known quote of Napoleon Bonaparte ," religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich."
