Modi Has Betrayed Oath of Office; Hindus Must Speak out Against Treatment of Muslimsa  https://youtu.be/01TKiMKv_ew   The Wire One of India's most highly regarded former Home Secretary says "secular Hindus are uncomfortable, frustrated" adding "and don't know what should we do in Modi's India". Gopal Pillai said if the present treatment of Muslims is not checked and reversed then India could be 10 years away from danger point which he described as "civil disturbance". At one point in the interview he even briefly accepted India could face "civil war".
Mr. Pillai said if Prime Minister Modi and his government do not reverse the present treatment of Muslims, which includes cattle lynchings, economic boycotts and othering, "future generations will hold Modi and his government responsible for endangering India"
This 45-minute interview was arranged at Mr. Pillai's request after he had seen an interview put out last week with Ziya Us Salam on the question 'What is it like to be a Muslim in Narendra Modi's India?' Mr. Pillai suggested that we should do an interview on the subiect 'What is it like to be a secular Hindu in
Narendra Modi's India?' In the interview that followed Mr. Pillai said he had suggested this subject because, as he put it, "Muslims should know Hindus support them and do not accept lynchings, boycotts or calls for genocide". Mr. Pillai said Hindus want to "live in harmony and peace".

Defending the Idea of India April 15, 2023

There is growing violence, an atmosphere of hatred across the nation and a consistent attack on the democratic fabric of our country. Constitutional and human rights of people, most notably – the fundamental right to equality, the right to live with dignity, to question the state and dissent – have been trampled with impunity. Institutions of oversight have been systematically emaciated, with the independence of the judiciary under a serious cloud and the functioning of the Parliament gravely compromised. We have learnt from the experience of neighbouring countries, once these structures are allowed to crumble, nations pay huge prices to rebuild them.

We feel that the urgency to intervene in defence of diversity, pluralism, democracy, constitutional values and justice has never been more pressing than in the conditions prevailing in the country today. It is therefore necessary to energize all peace loving citizens by conscious interventions.
