‘KBC’ which insults Hindu Scriptures and Amitabh Bachchan should tender a public apology to Hindu community
‘KBC’s anti-Hindu Dharma attitude continues : Hindus enraged for hurting their religious sentiments purposefully again
Mumbai – ‘In the ‘Karmaveer Vishesh’ episode of ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati – Season 12’ (KBC) programme aired on Sony TV on 30th October, the seats of faith of Hindus were once again insulted by asking suspicious and negative questions about Hindu Scriptures. The host of the show, actor Amitabh Bachchan asked a question as to which Hindu Scripture was burnt on 25th December 1927 by Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar and his followers ? He gave 4 options for eliciting the answer – Vishnupuran, Bhagwadgeeta, Rugveda and Manusmruti. What exact message from this question Amitabh Bachchan and KBC want to give ? After this, Bachchan tried to mislead society by criticising Manusmruti for its ideologically inappropriate caste-discrimination and untouchability and said that that is why Manusmruti was burnt. Hindu Janajagruti Samiti strongly condemns this instance and demands public apology from KBC and Amitabh Bachchan’, said the National Spokesperson of the Hindu Janajagruti Samiti, Mr. Ramesh Shinde
Last year too, KBC had insulted Hindu national heroes by mentioning Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj by singular name as ‘Shivaji; however, it has again insulted Manusmruti by giving inaccurate information about Hindu Scriptures. In 1927, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar had burnt Manusmriti; however, after this, on 11th January 1950, while speaking in front of the Students’ Parliament of Siddharth College in Mumbai, Dr. Ambedkar had said, “I have relied on Manu for a decision on caste, Smruti of Sage Parashar for divorce, the Smruti of Sage Bruhaspati for the rights of women”. He also said that Manusmruti is the basis for the right of inheritance of the Dayabhag system. It was clear from this that Dr. Babasaheb underlined the importance of Manusmruti. This incident once again showed the anti-Hindu attitude of KBC. If the question on Dr. Babasaheb burning Manusmruti is asked, in KBC, then the question such as who destroyed the ancient Hindu universities’ Takshashila ‘and’ Nalanda’ and burnt their invaluable literature forever ?’ can also be asked. Will KBC and Amitabh Bachchan dare to ask such questions about other religions such as ‘What Scriptures inspired the terrorists who attacked Charlie Hebdo ?’ The Hindu community should protest against ‘KBC’ and ‘Sony TV’ for insulting Hindu Dharma, Scriptures and national heroes and take initiative for the protection of culture, appealed Mr. Shinde on this occasion.
