Secular India.
If you are wondering what is all the fuss about Amarnath yatra then read this blog by Ramesh where he has compared Haj yatra vs Amarnath and you will be astonished how “secular” India helps one community over other . There is one community who complains a lot about treatment they receive, about injustice they have received in various cases but gets 300- 400 crore as subsidy so that they can visit there God. I am not sure how many countries in the world gives such subsidy in the name of God even non secular countries don’t give such subsidy .I am not against people visiting God but state sponsor pilgrime is not digestable.
We are a country where million people lives below the poverty line and cant afford food , we are country were we are getting blast every other day helped to a large extent by the community getting all the dollies , we are country were police force is grossly underequipped to fight against terrorism , we are a country were cases are pending in the court due to lack of judges so are such luxuries justified for relegious cause ?
What does tax payers like me should read into this , that we are working hard so that “secular” Government help some people perform there relegious duty , it would be great if goverment gets there priority right , this is shame and it is time that tax payers stand up and ask Goverment to get there priorty right and and not let God come betweel food and security.
