Dirty ‘Ghar Wapsi’ Game in Modi Raj

Interface of RSS and Modi sarkar in conversions will be dangerous for the social fabric. ‘Home coming’ without proper jobs for poor and with unequal wealth distribution is unfair. Unequal rules and double standards will be difficult to withdraw.

‘Home Sweet Home’ remains the evergreen shelter for ages. Charity must begin at home. Why is PM-Modi team running away to set a role model. ‘Ghar Wapsi’ must begin with first converting and swapping the few BJP Muslim ministers and powerful leaders in their own home? This is a classic division of people and example of clever governance. Poor Muslims are pitted against the rich.

Need for a home motivated our ancestors to keep the ‘development batteries’ charged. From ‘self’ to the ‘society’. From the early stone age- ‘caveman’ to today’s ‘spaceman’, we all cherish the role of home.

Even the Indian workers working overseas try to negotiate advance in salary or loans to buy toys and chocolates for children back home. The buzz word is ‘Home Coming’ is a celebration for better living for all. Better and more skilful the Indian or the global citizen the more share he/she is likely to get.

Where is ‘Aache Din’ for ‘Hindu’ Workers PM Modi?

No religion standalone can truly motivate its followers to get better rewards in form of profit or salaries. Collective motivation is a very personal process and must come from the individual jobs and individual skills based on peer pressure, good governance and use of modern minds.

Ghar Wapsi_ModiInterface of RSS and Modi sarkar in conversions will be dangerous for the social fabric. ‘Home coming’ without proper jobs for poor and with unequal wealth distribution is unfair. Unequal rules and double standards will be difficult to withdraw. Let us see how.

A sad struggling ‘Hindu’ house painter in UP tells me why he should not get Rs.5 lakh reward while a Muslim painter can easily get by converting to become Hindu. While a Muslim Taxi driver from Dehradun who wants to settle and shift in Delhi for better opportunity says Rs.5 lakh deal is nothing and shall not fetch him a home or help buy a house in Delhi.

A Parsi Indian writer Bachi Karkaria in her satire that appeared recently in Times of India demands why Parsi and others are left out in this ‘paid deal’ of conversions.

Paid jobs helps people get out of hopelessness with an opportunity. A minority commission team as per Times of India who visited Madu Nagar slum in Agra where 57 Muslim families are converted on Dec-2014 to Hindus puts the event as cheating the poor by false petty promises of BPL cards and Ration cards.

03Instead of fighting for poverty as pre-election promise, Modi team is now fighting for conversions by using bribes. Schools for all by 2015 as ‘internationally committed’ by several world leaders including our Hon.PM his team wants children to attend school and write essay on Good Governance Day.

When you wish to stop the children (of all religion) to enjoy Christmas Holiday and find Santa Clause real or on Television distributing happiness and gifts to children then how can you motive a young mind to write essay on Good Governance Day on 25th. Dec.-2014.

BJP appears committed to use bribes to lure conversions rather than fighting for jobs, provide schools for all and remove poverty.

Home builds security and hope and never loses its value. Security ensures a peaceful, dignified environment to survive, to work and contribute. Survival, growth and the legacy of tradition cannot be understood without sharing. Sharing, Home Coming or getting connected by social media cannot be freely understood, unless seen together as a natural part of the common tradition with a respectable job or an opportunity for human survival.

Indians needs to celebrate honest Home Coming. Modi team needs to immediately stop their ‘Ghar Wapse’-Home coming road map for the betterment of all.

Mahatma Gandhi on Conversion: “I believe that there is no such thing as conversion from one faith to another in the accepted sense of the word. It is a highly personal matter for the individual and his God. I may not have any design upon my neighbour as to his faith, which I must honour even as I honour my own. Having reverently studied the scriptures of the world I could no more think of asking a Christian or a Musalman, or a Parsi or a Jew to change his faith than I would think of changing my own.” (Harijan: September 9, 1935).
