This blog was supposed to be about why I support BJP and chart out some of the biggest screw ups by the Congress. Congress has always called BJP non secular and many other things along with that. But BJP has accepted that they are communal. Unlike BJP, Congress has been a pseudo secular party. How? To start with congress has divided the nation into men and women. The fact that the citizens are referred to as ‘person’ so that there isn’t any gender bias was lost on Congress. In 1986 when Congress was in power, Shah Bano was divorced by her husband. She approached the court to claim maintenance; she was 65 when she was divorced. As per section 125 of Cr.P.C, it is the duty of the husband to maintain his divorced wife. The Muslim community protested about the court interfering in personal laws and Congress found this as a means to bank on Muslim voters. It enacted the The Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Divorce) Act, 1986 which stated that a woman shall be maintained for the iddat period(which is for a period of 3 months) and then she no more is her husband’s liability. This Act was passed as back then Congress was in majority. Congress has further divided people into OBC and SC/ST. Mandal Case I & II are staring right at us, because of which sub clause (4) was inserted under Articles 15 and 16 of the Indian Constitution. A similar episode of further increasing quotas happened in 2007 -08. Which was the ruling party? CONGRESS. If our nation is slipping and sliding down on its way up it’s because of Congress.
But after the last 24 hours it’s not about which political party is better or which is the best of the worst. What’s happening in Mumbai is right in front of us and to think that even in such crisis politicians can only think about furthering their political ambitions by giving speeches “condemning terror”, you begin to wonder if you really want anyone at all to take the political throne. For once can’t they just act upon their words instead of just saying them?
