At Meanwhile in Secular India...

The brutal attack on tourists in Kashmir and killing them on their religious identities, has placed all of us alive into a living in meanwhile where all social expressions short of fanatic uprising are censored in popular media. The middle and lower middle class of people posing themselves as fanatic 'Milaufers' of Fascist Germany. The conditions of Journalism in popular media are being downsized to some mere slogans favouring whosoever in power.
The attack or the series of attacks from Kashmir to a child beaten in a school of Bengal for not saying a particular saffron slogan have become so intrinsic that the perpetrators even create and redeem anyone or anything their masiha or the ruler in the 'meanwhile gap' where most people live with their personalized media.
The redemption of fanaticism on religious question is a production of today's media, most of which have completely transformed into a slogan based media house that dominates all socially evolved narratives of the plural senses of lives.
Nothing stops however as we the common people are forcibly stuck at 'meanwhile' waiting for the players of both majority communalism and minority fundamentalism promote an apparent 'balance' between the acts of violently fanatic. The so called balance is the    place where people at meanwhile get to see the world at least moving. We have been waiting at meanwhile for long in the history of oriental societies whereas acts of communal violence and the planned communal attacks are incessantly trying not just to dominate our psyche but engulf the political cultural spaces too. We the people of India would not remain stuck at meanwhile at the cost of our living and lives. We must act effectively to save our sovereignty.
