Amazing what a peaceful protest can acheive when it creates a simple yet powerful symbolism!!!!
Isn't that what Dhatura aims for?
The 1984 riots were a serious act of genocide leaving 3000 defenceless Indians dead, more families rendered asunder and perhaps many young childdren orphaned or rudderless.
The real Culprits of the Carnage still roam scot free, barring those who managed to reach their grave before justice. They were lucky television hadn't struck then. There is encouraging progress in riots of recent origin where people closer to the epicenter have found justice knocking on their door.
And yet our leaders and opinion makers busy themselves trying to put partisan spin on something so horrific in the hopes that two wrongs could make theirs right!
This brings us to an important question - Can a leader really escape responsibility for the deeds he may have instigated wittingly or unwittingly and more importantly, should he?
Can we allow this? Is this how civilized we are?
Come 'throw-a-shoe' and make a difference.
Your participation can make Dhatura a potent symbol of consequence.
Cheers
Arun- Dhature Ka Beej
The shenanigans of the denizens that inhabit our collective public space in India have continued to get shorn of decency and substance.With an inclusive approach toward public spirited and conscientious desire to clean up the unholy mess or at least warn the vast, honorable people of this country that we dearly love, let us recognize these acts and actors, state or non-state.
