Communal ideology was kept in the freezer for more than 70 years by Nehru and Congress. Because of its Secular credentials, India got good name and fame in the world. Also India is developed much better than its neigbors under the Congress rule. Now the Communal forces are started to come out but mean time it is out dated. People do not want division in the name of religion and silly politics. We are not going to achieve anything by commenting on history nor we cannot blame any one what is happened in the history. What people need is : Good Hospitals, Schools and colleges, Electricity, Jobs, Good Roads - People need peaceful and comfortable life. Not this hell kind of Beef, Mandir Masjid politics. Any party should realize, people will vote for them just by raising these issues, they are only dreaming. Remember people voted Modi for Development not for Hindu Muslim politics. Any governemnt, please concentrate only on providing peaceful and comfortable life for the citizens of India. Nobody interested in Silly politics. Ultimately people will vote only to those who brings developments and non corrupt.
Yes. If you are the real man and have guts reveal the true histoty. Not Chaddi history.
Tipu sultan Jayanti invites you to to print the name of the Tiger and not the rat' s name.
