Gandhi acted in favour of Muslims. His presence will be harmful to Hindus. Spotlight Blockchain a game changer for seed funding? Coronavirus outbreak Covaxin vaccine Cowin vaccine registration Coronavirus live news Corona cases today Covshield vaccine.
Follow us on. Pandey said the Hindu Mahasabha plans to open several similar education and memorial centres dedicated to Godse across India. Two days after the Godse memorial library was opened this week, it had to close on the orders of the local magistrate. And members of Hindu Mahasabha have been arrested for attempts to erect Godse memorials and hold ceremonies in his honour.
Mahatma Gandhi's killer venerated as Hindu nationalism resurges in India. Godse acquired esteem through the assassination of Gandhi. His new-age followers can find their esteem by turning militant, by vanquishing Muslims and Christians in the 21st century, or by converting them and bringing them back into the Hindu fold, in the hope of effacing these religions from the country. It will then turn India akin to a modern European nation-state — one country, one religion — which is the model a large segment of the Hindu Right favours.
This is as true of his new-age followers. His love, as also that of his followers, is destructively obsessive. They can neither accept competing ideas in the religious realm nor the free choice of the other.
It was this illegitimate passion of Godse which inspired him to kill Gandhi. It is this which usually inspires myriad outfits worldwide to hitch religion to the creed of violence.
