“In matters of conscience, the law of the majority has no place.” ― Mahatma Gandhi.

Religion has no place in Governance in a Democracy, unless it is a Democracy where "All People are Equal but Some People are More Equal than Others".

When the law was made in 1950 then it was clearly mentioned in the Indian Constitution how citizenship will be given to anyone who was born here. Anyone who has lived here for 11 years will get citizenship whether Hindu, Sikh, Christian or Muslim."


What is Sad is in a War no side will agree it is at fault. All this violence and bloodshed in the name of God and Religion and we are all victims as we are born into one religion or the other for no fault of ours. Religious Conflict is the main reason why the world is in such mess in 2020 ? Chaaha Hai Kya ? Paaya Hai Kya? Just pain and misery. Sad world we live in. Can Gods not take the responsibility and resolve this feud between themselves. Australian Fires brought the people together CAA fires have divided the Nation on religious grounds. Sad but True.
