Readers’ comments: ‘I do not see any bullying of minorities in India’

I do not see any bullying anywhere (From fasting to bullying: How Hindu supremacists are using Navratri to target Muslims). Stop spreading a false narrative. – Anish Chaudhary

You do not deserve any support as you are plainly anti-Hindu. You deliberately concealed the fact that stone pelting from mosques started the clashes during Ram Navmi. Shame on your communal journalism. – Sukriti Ranjan Bhattacharjee

What does the author mean by the term Hindu supremacists? Ours is a culturally rich Hindu nation vandalised and oppressed by Muslim and Christian invaders. If we do not fight back, Sharia will be imposed sooner than you think. By disabling open comments under your article, you too are reiterating your sickular credentials. – Naveen Chaitanya

Instead of using the term “Hindu supremacists”, you should have used the word “BJP”. – Himangshu Patgiri

***

You have a one-sided narrative without any facts. You have been shaming my country and my Hindu religion for too long just with your false narrative. – Daisykumar Jaiswal

***

Please do not spread communal enmity by just condemning Hindus every time. – Shraddha Bandekar

Miscellaneous

I believe that your editorial team goes through every article published in foreign media houses before republishing it on Scroll.in (By subverting a fair no-confidence vote, Imran Khan reminded us he is not very different from Modi). I think this time, the whole vetting process was not completed for the above-mentioned article as the author has wrongly compared the catapult (former) prime minister of a rogue state to the prime minister of the world’s largest democracy. Surprisingly, when he mentions the constitutional fraud of Imran Khan, he substantiates it with the example of Donald Trump but cannot gather the courage to put his name in the headline. Being a responsible media house, Scroll.in could have objected to the headline of this article before publishing it. – Shashank

All sections of people should maintain peace and foil the objective of those who wish to divide people in the name of religion (‘Shocked at silence of PM’: 13 Opposition leaders issue joint statement against communal violence). Stop the communal provocations. – Krishna Mohan V

This is a very timely article (Why Indian hospitals turn into raging infernos). Not just hospitals, this is a reality of most multistoried buildings burgeoning in our cities and small towns. False ceilings hide fires for some time. In many places, there is no proper distancing of electric piping of various capacities and thicknesses. The rules for concealed cabling are also not followed. Substandard circuit trippers are used – they do not trip at all. I stay in one such building in Vadodara meant for senior citizens. – Chinu Srinivasan

To paraphrase Gandhi himself, a liberal Hindu would be a good idea (Hindu versus Hindu: What Ram Manohar Lohia wrote in 1950 on liberal and fundamentalist Hinduisms). Hinduism is steeped in bigotry, superstition and, above all, inequality. The caste system is the essence of Hinduism, and it remains the basis of the social organisation of Hindus, weathering all attacks and protest movements, of which no doubt there have been many. – Sudhir Katiyar
