Congress leader Shashi Tharoor tweeted
that “Hindi, Hindu and Hindutva” ideology is dividing the country and said
India needs unity, not uniformity. Being born to Hindu parents and writing a
book titled “Why I am a Hindu” does not make him “pro-India” or “pro-Hindu.”
Few days ago, this Congress MP from
Thiruvananthapuram mocked Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath’s holy dip in the
Sangam at Prayagraj and posted on twitter, "Ganga bhi swachh rakhni hain,
aur paap bhi yahi dhone hain. Iss Sangam mein sab nange hain. Jai Ganga Maiya
ki! (Ganga has to be kept clean and sins also have to be washed there. In this
Sangam everyone is naked. Hail Goddess Ganga!).”
Being a politician and a
parliamentarian and spewing hatred against Hindus does not make one
"pro-India." Rather, it makes one a Hindu-hater. Will the
"pro-India" politician listen to the SOS messages coming from the
people he claims to represent in Kerala? Probably not. In all likelihood, he
will just continue pushing his anti-Hindu agenda as Hindus in Kerala continue
to see their temples, rituals, beliefs and faith being stomped by their own
government.
The real "pro-India" people
are those who are willing to raise their voices against the mistreatment of Hindus
at the hands of their atheist or non-Hindu brothers in Kerala. The real
"pro-India" leaders are those who are prepared to defend the rights
of Muslim women and girls facing the violation of their Human rights at the
hands of Indian-Muslims. The real "pro-India" politicians are those
that are prepared to advocate for democracy and free speech for all their
party-workers living under the repressive regime of the dynasty in Indian
National Congress. The real "pro-India" intellectuals are those who
are prepared to condemn Indians for their racist and discriminatory measures
against Hindu-Indians, living and dead.
Hindus should show mercy and forgive Tharoor
for his ignorance and disregard his irreverence and sanctify him in the true
spirit of Hindutva, “ॐ असतो मा सद्गमय।, तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय।, मृत्योर्मा अमृतं गमय।, ॐ शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः॥” - “Om
asato mā sad gamaya, tamaso mā jyotir gamaya, mṛtyor mā amṛtaṃ gamaya, Om
shanti~ shanti~ shanti hi~~” (from the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad -1.2.28). [This translates to: Om, from falsehood, lead
me to truth, from darkness lead me to the light, from death lead me to
immortality, Om peace, peace, peace (Peace in three states of life- physical
mental spiritual)]
Born in UK, having spent most years of
life away from India, and receiving education mostly at Christian institutions,
might have given Tharoor proficiency in English language but could not have
educated him about “Hindi, Hindu and Hindutva” ideology. He claims to be
carrying a “Shiv-Lingum” in his pocket so as not be called
"Hindu-phobic" for his misplaced "political correctness."
Pitying his ignorance, Tharoor may be
consecrated in the language he is likely to be more familiar with – “Father,
forgive them, for they know not what they do.” (From the Bible, Miles
Coverdale's Version, Luke 23:34, 1535).
