The incendiary speech by the Majlis Ittehadul Muslimeen MLA Akbaruddin Owaisi is dangerous to the secular fabric of our nation and condemnable in strongest words. What is disturbing is that the politicians nowadays are finding it easier to woo the voters through polarisation on the plank of religion and caste, rather than on developmental issues. We have seen earlier how Narendra Modi contested two assembly elections and two general elections on themes of ‘Hum Paanch Hamare Pachees’, and chastising relief camps as baby-producing factories.
