India is known to be a ‘diverse’ country, home to many religions, equality in diversity is something the country is proud of, being a nation that doesn’t stand by or represent a particular religion, yet hate crimes on the basis of religion in the country are increasing with every passing day.
Be it stone pelting, murdering, or raping a woman because of religion, there’s no shortage of it in the country, not only are these crimes praised by many but also the criminal is protected by the people of the community.
The one thing that all individuals should think about is the fact that, where exactly are we going as a society, and what does the future hold for us, how will we be able to work, eat, live, in the same country if minor things force us to show how ‘powerful’ or ‘superior’ once religion is from other.

Whether we want the government to do right or do right according to one party, is what we should decide first.
