Why silence on mob lynching of Rahul Kandela

CHICAGO: Indian Americans across Chicagoland expressed their concern over the brutal killing of a boy Rahul Kandela. The son of a driver, from a poor backward class in Delhi, was lynched by some radical Muslims, objecting of this 19-year-old teenager being friends with a Muslim girl.

This had become his crime, for which he was penalized by Jihadi elements with mob lynching. It is a matter of great concern for the entire country that whenever a Hindu boy falls in love with a Muslim girl, that boy is tagged as a criminal and gets marked for sure death penalty, but when a Muslim boy establishes a relationship with a Hindu girl even by force or fraud, he does not come under any category of crime for them.

The leaders of Muslim society need to remedy and cure this Jihadi-Mindset of a section of their society and bring them to the path of coexistence instead. The tolerance of Hindu society should not be taken otherwise. It is contended that the so-called secular fraternity is no less guilty for promoting this bigotry and violent hatred.

For some isolated incidents with a member of Muslim society, they not only put the government and the entire country in the dock, but not a word of sympathy when scores of youths like Rahul are mob-lynched. When IB officer Ankit Sharma was assaulted, brutally tortured and killed and his badly mutilated body dumped in the drain, why was the mouth of the secular fraternity stitched? A despicable and repellent crime like rape is unpardonable.

They are working to destabilize elected nationalist governments, promote anti-national activities, defame the Hindu society and the country.
