Point is, just coz one tragedy is being discussed, why is it always necessary to being in past tragedies to current?
I've seen idiotic people both in India and Pakistan do the same.
Some hate tragedy strikes the U.S., some Muslims are all "well what about all those people that died in Afghanistan?"

Some hate crime strikes a Muslim, it's suddenly well "Hindus die too!l

W*F does it matter? It's tragic no matter who dies. Anyone murdered in cold blood is tragic, so condemn it!

The reason this issue is being brought out is that in light of recent escalating extremist views in some groups in India, it is a violent manifestation of what people can do.

There's also the angle of a minority's and power dynamics in play. Concern lies with the group that's already at a a slight disadvantage by numbers.
It's similar to the "Black Lives Matter" slogan in the states lately. African Americans being a minority are disadvantaged by power dynamics so if an AA is killed by a cuacasian it is a cuase of as opposed to an AA killing whites.

In my honest view these Bollywood celebs should refrain from writing on political matters. It gets coverage by media but the content is half baked and loose in arguments.
When a political writer/intellectual picks it up, he/she will always tear those half baked points apart.
I may or may not agree with extremist ideologies but that writer Sarkar has actually made a mockery of Sharmila's article, however well intended it might have been.

What an idiot. She's a pseudo-intellectual.



She's doesn't pray namaaz
She doesn't fast Ramadan
She doesn't do zakat
She probably will not be going for hajj like her hubby
She does not follow dietary restrictions of islam
Her son has a Durga Puja at his house before moving in.
All Hindu festivals are celebrated at her son's house
Her daughter married a Hindu man
One daughter identifies with islam - Saba

Yeah; I aint concinced that taking a name for some paperwork in Pataudi makes her Muslim.

If it's a character assassination and personal attack and assumptions about someone's faith meant to discredit someone and incite hate, then yes. Best to shut up

Exactly!

But what to do? 80% Indians are such fanatics. sharmila/aayesha's gotta live with such fanatics or move out to some safer places...

Now we can't ask those 80% fanatics to find themselves other country, can we?
And even if someone did, Who'd want them anyway?

Why make anyone move out?
How about stop killing people for hurting religious sentiments?

Both ways.

You draw the prophet, I'll kill you coz my religious sentiments are hurt.

You slaughter a cow, I'll kill you coz my religious sentiments are hurt.

Two sides of the same coin. Stop the madness!



If it were up tk me, Id throw any fanatic who physically harms another in jail and have them rot there.

Is she associated with Congress ? She got plum posts in Congress regime and was supposed to contest from Gurgaon on Congress seat in general elections 2014.
If that is so then her article will always be taken in context of her political leanings.

Woah! So 1-3 people make 80% of the country...
If these 80% were fanatics..then minorities population in our country would not have increased. .where as in our neighboring countries ..minorities are almost at verge of extinction.. So don't lay whole blame on entire community or population.

The very fact that you see people voicing concern n displeasure is because these 80% condemn fanaticism of any kind..
