Editorial Perspectives

  • The lawlessness of religious fanatics ! The fanatics who so far opposed Hindu processions are now opposing ‘DJs’ at Hindu weddings. Tomorrow they will oppose Hindus to come on the road ! Hindus should unite themselves so that such a situation should not happen.
  • Please note that Muslims who make Hindus tolerate the sound of Azaan by loudspeakers five times a day do not even accept the sound of a loudspeaker for a single-day event like a Hindu wedding !
