Ram Puniyani writes about the inaction of the administration and the absence of any media coverage of the event and its significance.
By now the acts of terror, Islam and Muslims have become synonymous terms in popular imagination, propagated by US media globally and supplemented by Hindu right wing here at home. A large section of the media has added to the manufacturing of this stereotype.
On 6th August (2006) in the middle of the night, a powerful bomb exploded in remote place in Maharashtra, Nanded. The house where it exploded belongs to the RSS sympathizer with Bajarang Dal flag flying a top the house. The impact of the blast could be felt in the whole town, in the perimeter of two kilometers, some people felt as if it is an earth quake. The house where the blast took place, all the furniture was blown apart and two members of Bajarang Dal were killed on the spot and three other were seriously injured. It was a single explosion, not multiple one as happens with crackers.
Next day the local Superintendent of police was prompt to offer the cover to the Bajrang Dal and its activists by declaring that it was due to crackers, which have accidentally been exploded.
Local papers reported that a** diary has been found at the spot, which has the details of bomb making techniques and other relevant information**. The Local BJP MP started dishing out the subtle instructions by saying that innocent should not be implicated and that it was a minor incident. At the site of the bomb making false beard and moustache has been recovered
If by chance any Muslim would have been a part of the ghastly incident, by now hundreds of Muslims and many an organizations would have been rotting in the jail and all the national media and the concerned authorities would have swooped down the city and apprehended the culprits and detected/discovered the links with Al Qaeda/ISI and what not.

This news was, completely closed by the Indian Government, well this very incident shows that its a plan to Disgrace the Muslim Community.
