The political and semi-political parties (NGOs/NPOs/etc) with religious affiliations (fondly called secular in Bharat and consists of CommiePakis), and leanings - left and center, Red, Green & White, continue back tracking and betraying their promises.
These spawned movements can get no direct representation in any of the party structure, and their own leaders have failed them through and through. This constant and continous exploitation of these people - resulting only in a vote bank - has left them ill equipped to guide their own actions/destiny as well as in forming an alternative political front.
The so called reprensetatives have come with ingenious slogans and theories, spread by the activists of the new movements; yet no new alternative, no differently articulated version of social justice has as yet emerged as a political force. If anything the only issue that ever comes to the forefront is - pet agendas, petty grudges of the reformists and activists. Society as such as become hostage to their experimentation with discarded political and social theories of the west and elsewhere.
These instigated movements have constantly used dalits and other weaker sections of the society, to further divide the society. In doing so, these movements are eroding their victims' identity, culture, religion and distancing them from the very people they should be dealing with to solve their very real problems they face - socially, politically and on other fronts. In short the activists have tried everything under the sun, including instigating the said unfortunate Indians to violence and anti-national activities.
Now, Can we provide an alternative framework, where reformation, reconciliation and mutual understanding that will result in a strong, vibrant India - India that is for everyone.
We have one thread for "Caste/Religious Persecution" to highlight how propagandists and politicians use dalit issues and dalits as cannonfodder to further perpetuate a persecution complex.
We have another thread for "Caste/Religion based Reservation" to discuss the merits or lack there of such policies and impact.
This thread will raise the altitude to take stock of the situation - Big Picture - and discuss realistic solutions for reformation and reconciliation within a framework whose parameters are acceptable to everyone, and not just a single party in the mix and throw out the instigators and self-appointed reformers and revisionists.
