India : Muslim family forced to leave theatre for not standing during national anthem

[Nilgiri]

Bull shit..why should we play national anthem in a theatre in the first place ?……I too don't stand or never stood any time national anthem is or was played..no one has any right to force me.

Well prepare to get evicted if the mob votes you off the island.

What you do by yourself, no one cares about.

 

[takeiteasy]

what you want to prove??

That this Ultra-nationalism is pure hog wash; That tomorrow Knickeratti's(RSS) will come and claim that they are the pious warriors of Hindu religion and you all must support their agendas. Otherwise, you will be treated just like how that cow was treated during VHP head's ashes being carried for immersion in river.

Intolerance is on the rise in Indian occupied regions. This is the warning-these incidents are a warning of things to come and how it can be far worse. Remember once Fazlullah was a no body and could be caught by a single policeman rather than an army battalion in Swat. Take action now and save the people a lot of pain.

My family was right in choosing Pakistan though. The Indians condone this kind of thing in a kind of twisted sense of patriotism.

In south India no one cares about such silly matters...we are much more civilized than the ones seen in the video.

Thanks for exposing it here. I didn't know about this.

Yes you live there (somewhere) after all right? I would be surprised if you couldn't. You should learn at least one of them sometime bro

In South India other issues can stoke mob mentality, dont kid yourself. Other "silly" matters...

And the reaction to someone not standing for Pak Sarzamin will be all liberal and rosy?

One example of many....dont follow it at your own risk....you take matters in your hands regarding the people around you when you choose to not follow a code/etiquette:

United States Flag Code - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

• When the national anthem is played or sung:

1. Designation: The composition consisting of the words and music known as the Star-Spangled Banner is the national anthem.
2. Conduct During Playing: During a rendition of the national anthem:
   1. When the flag is displayed:[23]
      1. individuals in uniform should give the military salute at the first note of the anthem and maintain that position until the last note;
      2. members of the Armed Forces and veterans who are present but not in uniform may render the military salute in the manner provided for individuals in uniform; and
      3. all other persons present should face the flag and stand at attention with their right hand over the heart, and men not in uniform, if applicable, should remove their headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart; and
   2. when the flag is not displayed, all present should face toward the music and act in the same manner they would if the flag were displayed.

Be it a Hindu, Muslim, Xian or a Sikh.. If you do not respect our National Anthem, you are not welcome.

On the other hand, its ridiculous to have National Anthem played before every movie in Maharashtra. Do they do it also while screening a pron movie?

You think the "underground" theaters do that lol. They are underground for a reason.

Well in that case yes (I think). "Soft pron" is just mainstream regular stuff these days.

I agree that playing a national anthem before a movie is
