DID NUPUR SHARMA MAKE UP STORIES OR DID SHE TELL THE TRUTH? 




DID NUPUR SHARMA MAKE UP STORIES OR DID SHE TELL THE TRUTH? 


So, are we are a free nation when speaking scripturally recorded facts is deemed blasphemy?


What was Nupur Sharma's crime when she merely articulated what is written in bold terms in Islamic scriptural texts? Multiple cases have been filed against her for offending the religious sentiment of vast millions of Muslims. But has any Muslim cleric in the whole world thus far rebutted her affirmations and claimed that what she had said were blatant lies, concocted stories of her own? None whatsoever for these are recorded in their very scriptures. 


So, where's the offence? Wherefore the hurt? Why the outrage? Why the vandalism? Why the litigation? Why death-threats and calls for beheading? Why are clerics inciting the masses unto vengeful violence? Are these not offences against humanity for which prompt administrative action ought to be taken? 


Why are Muslims offended on hearing the truth? Is it to be then believed that Muslims in general are unaware of these facts? Or, is this another way of furthering the Islamist cause, of dealing the death-blow to free speech and democracy by imposing increasing Islamic injunctions on a people who do not abide by the tenets of Islam? Where lies India's future then? Are we then on the path to becoming the antithesis of classical Indian civilisation? 


We must raise our voices in expressing solidarity with this intrepid soldier of the soul, our daughter Nupur, who has been wronged for speaking the truth which men dare not as her very sidelining by her party bosses so distastefully proves.


Nupur Sharma has shown what courage of conviction is unlike our political leaders who are mere masks of men and have conveniently ditched her when she needed their support the most. This is the difference between real leaders of character and propped-up leaders of carefully crafted charisma. Hinduism needs better organisation if it has to combat forces that are bent upon its destruction from within and without. We must not succumb to perfidious pressure by patently antinational forces among which those issuing threats and baying for blood number.
