If Narendra Modi makes a triumphant return to power as the unquestioned leader of the BJP, let me speculate, there are many possibilities for the future of India — the Constitution will be amended to fix the problem of Jammu & Kashmir once and for all. This, I think, will affirm the genuine Secular character of our country apart from guaranteeing its unity and integrity. A New India may also emerge fashioned after the ideology of RSS. This indeed may enable the Minorities, whose religions are not born here in this soil but alien to this land, to enjoy fully the benefits of Secularism which is inherent in Hinduism as RSS claims.
All is fair in Love and War,” is a saying as old as the hills. The meaning of this aphorism is axiomatic. It simply means whatever one does in the matter of love and war, even if it is unfair and unjust, even violent, the goal is the same — winning. Here “means” do not count and naturally Mahatma Gandhi’s precept that “Means are more important than the end” does not apply when one is engaged in a love-affair or a war. Probably, that is the reason why love is called blind and war, bloody. Which is why, whenever there is a strong rivalry or contest, it is called a war in common parlance. Election, for example.
