Secularism and Reservations

The concept of secularism is a conspiracy against the people of religious India.
The belief that religion should not be involved in the organisaion of society,
Education etc., is secularism. While the religious character of India was ignored
in case of Hindus, in cases of Buddhists, Sikhs, Christians, Muslims, and Parsis,
the term ‘ religious minorities’ is applied. This is the conspiracy part of Indian Secularism. Recognizing the essentials of life for the religious majority became anti-secularism, and favoring the religious minorities became secularism. If secularism should thus mean counting the numbers of religious groups, an honest approach will be
to count the numbers of every religious group, without going by the factor of alien religion or native religion. In the name of secularism, people following alien religions are united under the banner ‘minority’ and people following native religion are divided under the banner of ‘reservation’. Hence, provisions of both ‘Minority Status’ and‘Reservation’
becomes anti-secularism. For native Tamils, others are Aryans, having come through Kaiber and Polan. So, treat all north-Indians as alien religious group and bring them under minority-banner. If Brahmins only are Aryans having come from outside, then
bring them under minority category. If Brahmins are less in number but they were occupying more positions, so also Buddhists, Christians and Muslims were our rulers in the past and they thus become rulers and do not apply minority status for them. If reason for ‘reservation’ is suppression by upper castes of lower castes in the past several centuries, bring all Hindus under reservation class because, Hindus were also suppressed in the more recent times by Muslim and Christian rulers. The reason for the tireless but unsuccessful attempt of the Indian polity to stage-manage a casteless society is only to hide the injustices of provision of minority status and reservations. For determining ‘minority’ status, castes are overlooked; for provision of reservation castes are taken into account. This is the hypocrisy of Indian polity and it is a sheer conspiracy.
