As it is a saying sitting in home and pointing out others mistake is easy and tell this should happen that should happen. People use statements such as:-

Indian govt. is completely corrupted.

Congress trying to get Muslims votes

Nothing can happen about India they keep on fighting on religion issues that is why I am going abroad to study and settle there.

And many more…

1)So why such people don't try to take step and try to make things perfect.

Is this religion issues always lifted by politicians for there benefit, or people really do take part in it. Situations like:-

Regarding Vande Matram not only Muslims but few non Muslims from other party were taking Muslims side? Why(for there support or they felt that Muslims are correct)?

Recently a Hindu girl married a Muslim guy, then RSS, Shiv Sena and Bajrang Dal started protesting and even broke into Star news office in Mumbai.(was this for public support or for what?) or last year a Hindu guy married a Muslim girls there were also few protest. Why?

( I feel a person living in India will protest to it. But a person living in some other country will tell its there life they know what is better.)

2) I just want to ask what exactly is politic? How much benefit they give to public?

3) Will these religious arguments or fights will ever close down or even get to minimum level in India. (Is public really involved in this or its again politics).

I am sorry if I am sounding harsh.

I feel a person living in India has different views to such situation and living outside India is have different.

Hope the topic remains on subject (Politics) not stepping in other track😊

😆😆😆, I know, been there, done that, realized grass is always greener on the other side of the pasture😉

1)So why such people don't try to take step and try to make things perfect.

Honestly, I might feel like a person who is nit-picky, you had the answer in question itself

The defination of perfect is different in everyone's eye's. Ok here is my stand on Vande Mataram, It is a song about "our" country. Now the wording in there are such that a person of one religion might feel uncomfortable, so now considering we accepted ourselves as a secular nation, we should accept the concerns of that religion. BUT that assumes there are uniform laws for everyone, now staying uniform, there should be a uniform law for everyone, now if someone doesnt want to accept that part of the constitution then it becomes a question

The politicians pander to a religion from both sides, the makes people of other faith say, hey you are selling out there, be even handed we wont have a problem. But politicians in India have learnt one thing courtesy Indira Gandhi, if you pander to Muslims, it will be seen by Hindu's as large heartedness and they will put you on a pedestal.

And by pandering to the muslims you already got their votes😉

If you look closely at the issue without a bias you will see the lines where our personal nature buys into the pandering

2) I just want to ask what exactly is politic? How much benefit they give to public?

I think politicians give as much benefit to the public as much the public wants. If the public wants a 500 rupee note, they get it, if they want a TV they get it

unfortunately in India they dont vote on a issue, they vote on sentiments

Gandhi family has done so much for the independance, two of their family members died while serving as PM of the country, so we should vote for them. Or BJP says we will build a temple we will vote for them

It is never about ok, If you vote for this, we will build X and Y roads, we will cut down your taxes, we will get rid of corruption😉

3) Will these religious arguments or fights will ever close down or even get to minimum level in India. (Is public really involved in this or its again politics).

If only we could turn back time to pre Indira Gandhi days, we will be able to get over this, Gandhiji unknowingly sowed the seeds for this, Indira reaped the crop, She pulled this far to the left, BJP to counter it pulled it far to the right. I dont think with BJP/Congress in picture we will ever get to the center

It is upon us to make politics about issues rather than religions. Politicians in India have realized Muslims are very sentimental on religion, they will keep harping on it, there will be a natural and opposite reaction from the Hindu's. If for the duration of politics we forget religion, we will be fine in India

politics... power play! Read Machivelli to find out more. 😆 I love his version the best... locke, plato, marx(?), etc. all have good things to say, but what Machi says says it all. Just a word in advance, I don't support Machi's tactics 😆 , and don't support dictatorship either...but dictators are always amusing to study about 😃 , and guys always have a sad ending.

got to go!
