I’ve always thought, if this man [Asghar Ali Engineer] is a “curse on society”, may we be so cursed many times over.
Indeed. That quote is from Dilip’s post on the attack on Taslima Nasrin. The attack and some of the reactions in its aftermath move him to ask:
What is it with us Indians? Are we really becoming more bigoted and intolerant by the day, maybe by the hour? Are we really that unable and unwilling to see thuggery for what it is? Are our sentiments really that gossamer-like? Is our faith in our various faiths really as shallow as these incidents demonstrate?

Our country does not need reformist now. We are living in 21st Century. Our country needs revolutionists who can abolish current political system and start building new society.Dr.Asghar Ali Engineer is just a para-likha muslim spreading venom against hinduism.
