Aasmaan Toot Pada Hai Bhai!

Devoid of all issues the politicians and media have termed it as sacrilgeious that Muslims’ percent in the army has been asked.

“How dare they? Such appeasement!” that’s the reaction. As if, all secularist ideals have been demolished by this single question. When Mumbai riots and Gujarat carnage or Surat riots were occurring, who was perturbed by the massacre of Indian secularism?

No body is prepared to see any reason behind the question or just check out what exactly Sachar committe has asked for? It is no census of Muslims in army but is being labelled as such.

Come on, tell us what is rotten then that you are so worried. If you can’t reveal the figurest in detail, just tell if Muslims constitute even 2% or not? That is a very valid question and if you can’t even tell that then you do have either a guilt or bias.

Say loudly that you don’t want Muslims in army in sizeable numbers. Are Muslims any outsiders that such a hue and cry is being made as if the revelation of this figure will lead to Qayamat.

If it is very low, it will just put the onus on army to recruit more Muslims, which will probably not be a good idea for many. And what a legendary reply from the army “IT will lead to bad effect on the morale of army”. What is the logic of this argument. If it is a secular nation’s secular army, why should its morale be affected.

In 1947 India got independent and until 1967 not a single Muslim was appointed in the huge UP Police, Why? The SVD (Samyukta Vidhayak Dal) government that came to power in 1967 recruited some Muslims.

All these years it was Congress government in UP. A city like Lucknow that has 8 lakh Muslims has no Muslim ‘thanedaar’ at a police station. We are aware of all that, so what further travesty of justice can happen now? JJ Singh kuchh zayad hi naraaz hain. Aur bade bade ‘secular’ log bhi khafa hain.

Aisee naraazgi kaash kisi aise waqt nazar aaye jab hum ‘appease’ nahin ho rahe hon.
