It
is a matter of great concern that during the last 43 years the
policies are actions of the Government of India have been to openly
flout and violate these principles. As a result, India did not
remain secular in practice, but has become a state inclined towards
one particular minority religions by special rights to minorities,
especially muslims, at the cost of the interests of the national
community. It cannot, therefore rightly be termed as a secular
state.
For making India truly secular, laws
and constitution of India should be based on Hindu ideals. Hindus
recognise relevance of ethos and ways of worship adopted by its
followers. That is why Hindu state never became a theocratic state
in its entire history of thousands of centuries. In the Hindu state,
minorities were meted out with treatment of equality and it will
continue that same in future also. Entire history of Hindus is its
proof. As such, there is no reason or cause for the minorities to
oppose or come in conflict with Hindu nation and Hindu nation-state
of Bharat, i.e. Hindusthan.
Therefore, it is the need of the hour
that thinkers, intellectuals, philosophers, statesmen and
politicians in India appreciate and assess the minorities problem in
India in the light of the world history and the experience of other
countries as also the past and present happenings of undivided and
divided India, Pakistan & Bangla Desh. They should recognised
India as a nation-state and Hindu community as the national
community of India, and openly adopted and declare Hindus as Hindu
Nation. Only then they will be able to follow a correct policy
towards minorities and protect the unity and integrity of India and
India's national community of Hindus, otherwise the unity and
integrity of India are in great peril. (Translation by Shyam Lal
