On March 31, during the Ram Navami rally, a Hindutva mob set fire to Madrasa Azizia, which is the oldest madrasa and library in Bihar Sharif in Nalanda district of Bihar.

The madrasa contained more than 4,500 books which were destroyed in the fire, Mohammad Shahabuddin, the caretaker of the madrasa and library said to Maktoob.

“All of the books have been destroyed, and none remain,” he said.

Madrasa Azizia was established by Bibi Sogra in memory of her husband, Abdul Aziz, and she is recognized as one of the most respected philanthropists in the history of Bihar.

The 110-year-old library was vandalised by the armed mob of around 1,000 people. The saffron mob threw petrol bombs into the mosque and the library.

“The armed men were chanting ‘Jai Shree Ram,’” said Mohan Bahadur, a guard at the madrasa. He also said the mob attacked him, but he managed to flee.

Even though the attack took place in the afternoon, the cops did not reach the spot till 11 p.m.

Violence and vandalism have marred Ram Navami Processions in several states of India, targeting Muslims. Hate speech and stone-pelting against places of worship and shrines were common in all the incidents, which occurred in Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Telangana, West Bengal, and Gujarat.

Just another day in the open air shit hole known as India..

 

[Skimming]

Pakistan was always there from the beginning. British created India in 1947

When was Bangladesh created?

 

[That Guy]

So you want to ban religious conversions to Islam in India?

I don't give a **** what happens in India. It's their problem, not ours.

I don't give a **** what happens in India. It's their problem, not ours.

It's a humanitarian crisis.

When was Bangladesh created?

Bangladesh was never created. It birthed out the womb of Terror Mata

 

[That Guy]

It's a humanitarian crisis.

It's an Indian crisis. Let it remain an Indian crisis until it consumes them. Why would you want to strengthen India by encouraging social harmony there?

This spreads just like smog. Indian plunge into right wing fanaticism will have impact on not just the immediate neighbours but the entire globalised world.

People with traumatic stress don't make for ideal immigrants either as much as Canadian in you is concerned.

India isn't powerful enough for it to immediately spread in the neighborhood. India will collapse before it spreads.

Indian fascism is getting worse and worse. Better to just sit back and deal with your own problems and watch India break apart.

My argument is based on India's weakness and her inability to stop the spread.

Pakistan is legally obligated to raise these matters. We signed a pact with India to ensure that minority rights with each other get a voice.

What you are suggesting is right wing policies for Pakistan in terms of ignoring the literal elephant in the room.

Pakistan already has too many problems, why the hell should Pakistan get involved and make things worse for itself?

India's collapse will ensure containment itself. Unlike the western border, Pakistan's eastern issues are different in nature.

What is your age?

I'm probably old enough to be the same age as your father. What does it matter?

Pakistan has every right to raise a voice and a platform for resolution. If we have so many problems, why not add just 1 more? If the she-camel's back were to break, it would have done so during labor of 71.

India's explosion or implosion both carry dire consequences for Pakistan. Everytime she has faced an internal challenge, she has proceeded to wage war with Pakistan.

By all measure of doctrine of war, India has Pakistan under imposed war since August 2019.

 

[El Sidd]

Do you have any idea of That Guy's age? Is he in his 20s or 30s or 40s or 50s or 60s or 70s or 80s or 90s?

Such views are common between 20-35.

 

[villageidiot]

I guess this what good relations with India is going to look like?

It's a 1000 years of humiliation. This inferiority complex has become ingrained in their DNA. Like evolution.

think if Pak Army even arms 20K muslims in India that would suck half your army down

Forget about 20k, Kashmiri mujahids barely number a few hundred at best, and these gangus have to keep 900,000 troops in that tiny region.

 

[El Sidd]

There are thousands of muslim religious sites in India. It would be practically impossible.

The only reason Hindutva religious terrorism is allowed to happen, is because it is de-facto official policy of the Indian government, with tacit approval from judiciary and police, although indian diplomats will continue to professs de-jure zero-tolerance for anti-muslim pogroms. They lie and lie because no muslim goverment would tolerate that, so they hide behind mob justice.

What a pathetic country and patheic nation.
Even sub saharan African nations dont act like this anymore.

In this day and age such systemic ghettofication and extermination of heritage is a slap across humanity.
