Secular Horror: 15 years ordeal with Indian secularism

It is not a simple line that divides the two sentences above, but a traumatic and painful story spread over one and a half decades. If hands of persons like SP Vishnoi and AS Khullar continue to be the custodians of secularism in our country, countless Sherwanis, Rizvis and Waraqwalas will have similar anguished tales to tell in future. A single sweeping and irresponsible remark will be enough to spoil the better part of the life of a citizen.. And the Constitution with all its lofty ideals like the fundamental rights and directive principles will remain mute spectator. This is the story of one such ordeal.
