Recently, a schoolgirl wearing a Burqa gave cries of ‘Allah hu Akbar’ in the campus premises with dozens of Hindu youth around her in Karnataka. The radicals seem to have taken a strong liking to this and the radical organisation, ‘Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind’ has announced an award of Rs 5 lakh to the girl. By doing so, organisations like Jamiat are encouraging Muslim children to adopt radicalism from a tender age. The point to ponder over is ‘why could the girl do this without any fear?’ What would have happened if the situation would have been the exact opposite? It is best to not even imagine the consequences of a lone Hindu girl in the middle of a mob of radicals ! The radical girl in question has overnight become a darling of religious fanatics. On the flip side, it is worth noting that nobody is sparing even a thought to the fact that the Hindu youngsters didn’t even go close to the girl or caused her any harm. This whole incident underlines the difference between Hindu culture and Islamic ideology. Hindu female Police constables were sexually assaulted during the riots carried out by Raza Academy at the Azad Maidan in Mumbai. The Hindu community will never forget this.
The claim that “Hijab is our right!” is a mere excuse and tomorrow these same radicals will demand to be allowed to wear Burqa. Soon, this will be followed by the demands for offering Namaz in the school and thereafter, demand for everything to be carried out as per the Sharia. This is an excellent example of how a rise in the population of religious fanatics in any country leads to slow but steady mischievous attempts being made to impose the Islamic ideology on those belonging to other faiths.
Saree – a symbol of Hindu culture !
While supporting the hijab, the liberal gang is claiming ‘Hijab is acceptable the same way wearing a saree and applying kumkum is’. Their sheer stupidity is being exposed through questions such as, ‘How is the ghoonghat of Hindu women acceptable?’ Furthermore, questions such as, “How can the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath wear saffron robes and hold the CM’s position”, and “How can Sadhvi Pragya Singh wear saffron to the State Legislative Assembly ?”, are being purposely presented. Such questions are being asked to distract the people from the main issue. In fact, the first Education Minister of the country, Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, who was a Muslim, never felt that ‘girls should wear hijab to school.’ He never took an objection to teachers wearing a saree to school. The first female Prime Minister of India, Indira Gandhi used to wear a saree. India’s first female President, Pratibhatai Patil used to wear a saree and kumkum on her forehead. In the Indian judiciary, many women – right from the lower Courts to the Supreme Court – wear saree and even apply kumkum on their forehead. Furthermore, Vrinda Karat of the Marxist Communist Party also wears a saree and applies big kumkum on her forehead. Most women in India do not identify as devout Hindus yet they have accepted these customs. This is merely a reflection of the fact that they have accepted this land’s culture prevalent for several thousands of years. Therefore, if attempts are being made to drag the saree or kumkum in the Hijab debate, it is stupid and cannot be fathomed.
Why the demand for hijab only now ?
On 9th February, while speaking at the hearing on the Hijab debate, Karnataka High Court Judge, Krishna Dixit said, “When I was in school, the colour of the school was one. All the students used to wear the same uniform.” This further clarifies the fact that nobody objected to female teachers or students wearing kumkum or saree till now because it is a mark of the Hindu culture. The hijab is the culture of the invaders. Till now, the Muslims in India hadn’t made strong demands for it. They are pushing for it because they want to overturn the Hindu culture and instil Islamic culture in this land.
Hindu culture in dire need of protection in Hindu India !
An average Indian wishes to feel like they are in India when exploring the country. If one visits a school in India and gets the feeling of being in a school that is in Pakistan or Afghanistan, then what about the importance of the original Indian culture ? Today, all developed countries are frantically working towards the conservation of their indigenous culture. As mentioned in Dnyaneshwari, the Hindu culture is one that thinks about the well-being of the whole world. Against the backdrop of the coronavirus pandemic, the whole world has now accepted the importance of elements of the Hindu culture such as doing Namaskar, Cremation, Vegetarianism, Ayurveda and Ganga Jal, among others. Therefore, the conservation of the Hindu culture that works for the transcendental advancement of an individual is important. If some social elements are having daydreams about implementing the Sharia law by pushing for hijab in this land, it is important that those in power must show them their place. The demand for hijab is an excellent example of how religious fanatics use various incidents to finish other cultures when there is a rise in their population. This only underlines the dire need for the Uniform Civil Code !
