It is ludicrous that the print and electronic media, which is never tired to carry out non-stop harangue of “Indian Mujahideen” plot behind any terror activity in the country, has hardly focused on the recent Hindutva plot to hoist a Pakistani flag to trigger communal strife. But for the alertness of the Karnataka police who smelt the rat and nabbed the culprits, the incident of hoisting of a Pakistani flag at the Tahsildar office at Singadi, might have ignited yet another wave of communal violence. That an elected representative of BJP was behind this heinous crime has exposed as how our politicians are prepared to polarise the voters, at the cost of vitiating the communal harmony and ruining the secular fabric of our nation. This incident should also make the BJP leader L.K. Advani who had said, “All Muslims are not terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims” to revoke his jargon.
