DICTATORSHIP OF DEMOCRACY

Jaswant banned from BJP then Jaswant’s book banned from Gujarat?
Two disturbing dictatorial arbitrary decisions thrust upon citizens of a democratic country disregarding basic tenets of equity and commonly accepted norms of justice.
India appears to be hurtling like an unguided missile towards intolerance and undemocratic actions by petty minded individuals who do not deserve to be in positions of power. Power corrupts and absolute power destroys.
Tolerance has been the binding force which has kept our vast country together in spite of inherent variety that is mind boggling.
Unity in diversity is the guiding principle that the world envies when looking at India. We are likely to loose this respect if the current trend is allowed to continue.
Need for reforms and clipping of unregulated power in the hands of few self seeking politicians is becoming increasingly important to save the nation from spiraling out of orbit.
Contrary to democratic criteria, the basic structure of our democratic freedom is being attacked in the guise of appeasement of minority views.
