Bereft the communalists of their right to represent the common man

I'll not talk about the significance of 'India against corruption movement' and 'Jan lokpal', neither I want to talk about Team Anna, but I would surely want to talk about the trend of intolerance shown publicly by certain people with different ideologies. Prashant Bhushan and Arvind Kejriwal have been savagely attacked in public because of certain statement they issued. Is it a democracy where you are assaulting savagely the people who thinks different from you? Such acts are the legacy of RSS and Shiv Sena kind of groups which has a history of dictating people according to what they think. But in every sense this is not a democracy. And we must decide, as soon as possible, whether we should allow such people to continue or not. Such acts are no less than communalism, and are in fact contagious.

This is a raging question before us that such organisation are protecting the Indian state or are bleeding the very foundation of the Indian state, which is democracy whose very essence is Freedom to Expression. Democracy is run on the intelligence of common man where it chooses its representatives. This common man should be assumed intelligence enough to understand the meaning of certain statement. But such groups do not let the things decided by the common man as they start imposing by force their own thoughts in the pretext of calling it the sentiment of the entire population or at least the community they belong. In this sense they bereft people of their own independent response. Who gave them the authority to assume their authority? It's not their prerogative to enjoy such a previllage. And if somebody has expressed a certain view, it must left to the people to respond independently and non-violently.

Such groups must be stayed away from media, as most of their acts are just to get attention from media for cheap publicity. Also such groups, irrespective of the community they belong, must be held accountable for their acts deleterious to democracy. Such groups, and their acts, are the things of past where the common man was illeterate and too helpless, and somebody was needed to raise its voice. But in modern world people have become educated. They have the ability, and the right too, to respond in their own independent way. So a public opinion must be made to sack such violent groups, and their goons, out of the main stream. Only then we will have a true democracy where everybody has the right to express, and disputes will be settled amiably by parleys.
