The Racist's Paradigm

Recent row in Australia against our star cricketer*, “Bhajji”, again let us stand united and protest against, what Australians did? After all, the decision came out and it was proved that Australians did instigate Bhajji, to retaliate and tried to prove that they were Nick-Nack. During this whole episode we have howled a numerous slogans against racism and Australians, on TV, on News Papers, on Streets. We did whatever we could do to diminish there reputation. Well, this went all the way right, and made us feel proud being an Indian, who stand united against injustice.

Again we are facing a racism slur and this time they are not foreigners, but aur own nationals. Raj Thackrey’s comment to attack the repute Mr. Amitabh of International fame and abusing national leaders to provoke Marathi’s, to be intolerable against north Indians, is one of the shameful thing that has degraded the faith of an INDIAN. Raj thackrey has presented a live example of dirty vote bank politics that would divide the people in Maharashtra. More to add to the story that his violent supporters had there rage shown over innocent daily wagers, Vendors and Taxi drivers.

What answer do we have for, what Raj Thackrey did? Is it not a racial remark?

I still don’t forget the day July 7^th When Mumbai was rocked by bomb Blasts, at that time everyone praised the spirit of Mumbai. Where everyone lend the support whatever one could. But the recent incidents have put a question mark on the “Mumbai Spirit” and just because of this “Man of Shame”

We should introspect and feel sorry for such sick minded politicians, who for there benefit will not hesitate, to cut throat of there brothers. I still wonder where we are heading. We need to scratch our roots again to understand what we have and what we would have been? We have taken the liberties that our ancestors fought back to regain the honour of our Nation. To end I would like to Qute Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore ;

“Where the mind is without fear, and head is held high, in that heaven of freedom, my father let my country awake.”

We need to introspect and find out who is at fault?
