Media and some section of politicians are tarnishing the image of the country by indulging in hot discussion on the issue of religious conversion . Their main target to weaken the country, tarnish the image of BJP and Mr. weaken Modi led government.
Some people are opting for religious conversion, either wilfully or under temptation.. There is no case of coercive conversion and In India at least it cannot be imagined. In liberal era , youngsters are allowed to accept inter -caste and inter communal marriage by their parents. Gap between various castes and communities is shrinking slowly and gradually as growth is taking place in all sphere of life , in lifestyle and in mindset of at least educated people .
It is the sweet will of the individual to decide his or her God to worship and to follow. It should never be a subject of discussion and should not at all be a topic of debate of media .Constitution has granted freedom to worship to all Indian citizen. Religious conversion or inter caste marriage or inter community marriage have happened several times and in large numbers in the past and have become common and media should not create difference between two communities by organising hot debate on TV.
It is very much unfortunate that media men are igniting fire on non--issues and some MPs are wasting precious time of the Parliament. I condemn all those who are attacking one's right and freedom of religion and wasting precious time of the Parliament . Vote bank politics of opposition parties must be stopped in the larger interest of the country.
Parties like Congress Party, RJD, SP, BSP lost everything in election by crying for pseudo secularism and by criticizing Mr. Modi for a decade. I condemn persons like Bukhari or Azam Khan who ignite and provoke disturbance and who force Hindu fundamentalists to counter such aggressiveness of Muslim fundamentalist.
And at the same time I hope followers of so called Hindu organisations will not commit the same blunder as persons like Azam Khan or Abdullah or Bukharis are committing or committed in the past or else they should also be ready to face the same consequences as parties like Congress Party face in elections held in last few months.
I with full sincerity condemn TV media and its promoters who are strategically carrying out debate on caste and community based issues or religious issues which is perfectly and absolutely a subject of individual. It should therefore be left fully on the whims of an individual which religion he opts and how many times he or she change it.
I repeatedly condemn TV media because it is they who have changed the agenda of growth initiated by Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi because it is media which helps in spreading the hatredness in shortest period of time.If print media prints any report on cases of conversion undertaken by some individuals, it is hardly read by one or two persons out of 100 readers, but when same news is telecast ,debated and discussed on TV by two rival groups , it becomes a topic of discussion in all homes , all gossips and all corner meetings.
As such it is TV media which fuels the fire if at all it is there in small places in microscopically small numbers. Obviously TV media has altered growth agenda to religious agenda in all corners all over the country. It is media men who are propagating negativity in the country and it must be stopped at the earliest to save the country from social disturbances and social conflicts.
Various important bills are pending for debate in Parliament. If these bills are not passed and enacted , it will send wrong message to foreigners who have made plan to invest in India after impressed by culture of good governance promised by BJP government led by Mr. Modi. Country needs growth , development and welfare of poverty ridden people of India. India has already lost six decades in vote bank politics, let growth agenda be now undertaken sincerely by new government which has got tremendous support from people of India.
If government or any party advocate conduct rule and policy of conduct for journalist and media men, it will create another controversy and considered as attack on democracy by protagonists of Democracy. It is therefore the duty of media , that they themselves introspect and try to bring positivity in journalism in the interest of the country. They should formulate some code of ethics and follow the same in true spirit.
