building a road in the middle of Muslim graveyard

More Inhuman Stories From Gujarat

By Shabnam Hashmi

Gujarat: During the past three months from two villages in Mehsana Muslims families have been forced out and in one of the villages women brutally beaten up by the police. In baroda 5 young men illegally detained, tortured in a farm house and then shown arrested after 6 days after underdoing third degree torture and then implicated of possesing a rocket launcher which the poilce has not shown till today.

The latest in the series is building a road in the middle of a grave yard in Dahod with human remains still sticking out. The stories of capturing of grave yards, religious and cultural spaces along with various other ways of very systematic and planned discrimination keeps pouring in from all corners of India.

Those in power as well as the so called secular parties and a sizeable portion of the media has just become deaf and blind. While we celebrate our democracy and India moving into the 21st century , a large section of the population has become second class citizens in their own land. The other marginalised poor -tribals, dalits also facing similar situation. Religion has become the biggest industry with huge turn over and the new age gurus its ambassadors. Indian Middle class conciousness is sliding into medieval time. Indian middle class was never so irrational , superstitious and prejudiced as it has become today.

Re: building a road in the middle of Muslim graveyard

You know, there is so much scarcity for place to bury…that they have started burying multiple people in the same place…matlab, ek end se shuru…go till the end, once it fills up…start from the beginning…thats the condition here :hinna:

so, building houses there or a road is nothing :frowning:

Yeah i know its terrible what is happening.

India is secular in name only.

They might have some laws which stress equality, secularism etc. but it's one thing having it in writing and putting it into practie is another.

...Top goverment/state officials and the police are usally involved in this kind of thing...

...That's why the laws can never be followed in letter and spirit no matter how fair and indiscriminatory they might be in writing...

...This is exactly why Jinnah fought for an independent homeland for us because he knew that after the somewhat fair and just British leave South-Asia the Muslims will suffer hell because the fundamentalist Hindus didn't have the humanity or the conscience that the British had.

If India wasn't so concerned about its image, Muslims in India would have had it far worse.

India might be able to fool the rest of the world with it's false, superficial and hollow act of appearing all civilised and cultured but it's not fooling us because we know them too well, we know their mentality, we've lived with them for centuries..

These Indians are so full of venom that they import their hateful views and anti-Muslimism to tolerant countries like Britain to poison the minds of the indigneous people (who by large are non-hateful good people except a handful) against Muslims (like the Sikh guy who joined the BNP recently), you'd think they'd leave their political differences back in India and try to live with Muslims in this country as fellow Brits but no... Indians love the current world political situation with terrorism, they are fully utilising it by jumping on the anti-Muslim bandwagon and trying to make room for their own selves by hating on the Paki/Muslim enemy.

I have some Gujarati Muslim friends (from the older generation) and they haven't gone back to India in like 20-30 years nor do they want to because they lived in fear in an hostile enviroment where they would get murdered and have their houses torched by mobs for eating beef at an Eid feast... They tell me they are greatful to Allah and to Britain for giving them a secure home... Unfortunately now Hindus are not even leaving us alone in this country and are trying to create hatred amongst the local indigneous white people (my Indian colleague did it all the time) for us by chummying up with them and brainwashing them, I wish Muslims would also move out of their lil cliques and show the rest of our countrymen we're human too and not the demons Indians make us out to be...

Our family had an elderly Gujarati Imam Sahib here in England and once I saw a Pakistan flag in his living room, I was surprised and said "Maulvi sahib aren't you Indian?" he said I might have an Indian passport but how I longed for this flag to fly over Dilli back in the 1940s"....

He told me about how Muslims have to make sure they keep the Hindus appeased all the time and if one Muslim steps slightly out of line the whole community bore the brunt..

We have some Gujarati relatives through marriage and they don't like us talking ill of India but they will do it themselves and even they admit the hostility they have to face in India, I wish Pakistan would offer citizenship to Indian Muslims.

^ :)

I do not know if ever muslims in India are refused citizenship in Pakistan. Did you wonder if they dont actually want a Pakistan citizenship.

Re: building a road in the middle of Muslim graveyard

I know many here in the north of Great Britain who don't want to go back to India and dread the BNP coming into power incase they deport us.

They despise the hostile enviroment of India.

Casteism and religious based discrimination definately happens in the rural areas of India (72% of India) but even in the urban areas Muslims can't live in certain apartments or behave in a certain ways because it offends the Hindus, this is not because of Indian laws because Indian laws stress equality and no discrimination but because of the people who are largely uninfluenced and unaffected by what the law books say.

Indian Muslims live better lives in India than non-Muslims in Muslim countries.

Yar, I know some Martians too, who doesnt want to go back to Mars because its too cold in the night and too hot during the day. Its a pity isnt it? Cruel world.

Very intelligent Maulvi sahib. He wanted the Pakistani flag to fly over Dilli, but when he had the choice to move over to the land of his dreams he refused. He still wanted an Indian passport. Good for him. These are the kind of people who give the Indian muslims a bad name.

There is an acute paucity of land and govt is doing the right thing by demolishing unused graveyards.
For a second imagine that all people who ever lived on this earth had a separate grave for himself. Would there be space for anything else. It is good to use your brains sometimes though I know it is tough for you.

Sounds like he wants to have his cake and eat it. Such traits are commonplace among Muslims living in the West. A minority always engages in a victimization mentality and claim America is at war with Islam. But that’s not all. While they constantly cry about America or the rest of the Western world waging a war on Islam, they have no problem living in the suburban homes and the hospitable lifestyle, while shamelessly reaping the benefits their Western societies offer them. And is there any wonder why non-Muslims are fed up with the whiny antics of certain Muslims such as Nosherwan here?

You know these same hypocrites would complain if it was Pakistani hindus doing the same thing you’re mentioning, but I’m sure Nosherwan would have no problem sending Hindus back to Pakistan. After all, in his mind, I wouldn’t be surprised if he thinks Pakistan is for Muslims only :rolleyes:

Watch him accuse me of being a Indian in response to this post. That’s all he’s good at, unable to argue and refute except resort to calling others a ‘Zionist’, ‘Indian’, etc.

me 2..get all the traitors to your country.

What do you mean with “Such traits are commonplace among Muslims living in the West?”
Do you have any idea how many Muslims live in the West?
again your perpetual pathetic and nonsense theories and generalisations are good laugh for me.
Do i call all hindus cow-dung-eaters or urine-drinkers? NO i don’t. (no offense just making a point here)
