Editorial viewpoint

This shows just how much unrest there is in India. India is a secular country and the homeland of Mahatma Gandhi, but there is still unrest. India needs to become Dharma-based to become a peaceful country. The people of such a Country will abide by Dharma in daily life and this will bring peace.
