Killing fields of Gujarat: Are you Muslim? You're from Al-Quida or Lashkar!!

The Magisterial Enquiry, which is mandatory in every encounter case has finally termed it Ishrat jahan’s killing as a fake encounter in a metropolitan court. It is not a matter of surprise for anyone as everyone knew that she was killed in cold blood. Such killings are happening and happened in Gujarat under Modi for last ten years. Modi presided over the government-aided pogrom against the Muslim minority in 2002. And the four Muslim youths - including a teenage girl Ishrat jahan - were officially described as "Lashkar-e-Toiba terrorists" involved in a plot to assassinate Modi. They were said to have been shot dead in an "encounter" with the police near the Chief Minister's residence. But the report shows that they were “killed by Gujarat police in a cold-blooded, pre-planned way” to please Modi to get “rewards” and “promotion” from him. Behind the killings then and now looms the same bearded figure that has symbolized Indian fascism at its most shameless and distinct figure of Narendra Modi, Chief Minister of Gujarat. To a Hindu fascist like Modi, every Muslim is a terrorist, a Pakistani, an al-Queda operative, fascist the theory held and propagated by Modi, his Party BJP and their father RSS. Their idea of “India” is a Hindurastra, where only Hindus are “Patriotic”; all the others are “anti-India” and “traitors”. Madha Sadashib Golwalkar, 2nd Head or Sarsanghchalak of RSS wrote “The Muslims, Christians and Jews etc., have perfect upasana swatantrya, freedom of worship so long as they do not seek to destroy or undermine the faith and symbolism of the national society. They should subordinate their exclusive claims for final and sole revelation vis-à-vis the national society. They could bear witness to their faith in life and speech but they should not indulge in any unfair and unspiritual modes of conversion.” The ghosts of Hedgewar and Golwalkar are still living through Narendra Modi, L. K. Advani, Pravin Togadia and others.
