SDPI president urges people to be careful of communal forces

People should be careful of communal forces, who are trying to misguide them in the name of religion, said Social Democratic Party of India-(SDPI) national president A Sayeed. Urging citizens to restrain from the tricks of the NDA government, he said hysteria was being created on the issue of nationalism. All those who do not support the ideology of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) are being branded anti-national and the voice of dissent is being considered injurious to the nation. Shared ideology, not antagonism may be the foundation of nationalism. Facts and events in history, not distortions and fantasies with wishful thinking under the spell of majoritarianism may be basis of national identity. The spirit of constitution is being subdued by the tenets of old social order of the country.
