The Dhaka Times Desk Nobel laureate economist Amartya Sen has commented that the officials of the country's government are overly active in protecting the rights of Muslims in India.
Nobel-winning economist Amartya Sen said this in a recent speech on the occasion of the Peace Prize of the German Book Trade this year.
Amartya Sen said, Muslims and Hindus have been living peacefully together in India for hundreds of years. But in recent times this peace is being destroyed due to the behavior of 'extremist Hindutva political organisations'. These organizations are trying to treat Muslims living in India as foreigners. Muslims are also being blamed for harming India in various ways.
Amartya Sen also said that the growing power of extreme Hindu politics is fueling these acts of demeaning Muslims. Due to which sectarian isolation and religious antagonism are increasing in the society.
The Nobel laureate economist also said that the current government is making anyone 'terrorist' as they like through the amended Unlawful Activities Prevention (UAP) Act. But these accused are generally protesting these injustices by following the non-violent principles introduced by Gandhi. This is how student organizations are protesting against secularism.
As an example, he mentioned, Muslim researcher Omar Khalid, a student of Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru University, was arrested and jailed under the UAP Act on charges of 'terrorist'. But Omar described the secular side as beautiful and peaceful. He said that if they are caned, they will fly the Indian national flag. If they are shot in the chest, they will raise the country's constitution in response.
Amartya Sen also said that today's Indian culture has been created by the art culture of people of different religions. Its combination can be seen everywhere from literature to music or architecture to painting. The work of translation was started by Emperor Shahjahan and Mumtaz's eldest son so that non-Indians could read the Hindu scriptures. But the current government is completely erasing the contribution of Muslims from school textbooks. Serving their fabricated history.
