This riots in Assam are spreading to different states, even to the usually safe southern states.
The papers say that more than 16000 people have fled.I know north eastern people from restaurants, beauty parour and a road side momo shop....All these people make a honest living and are hard working...They are very professional...Why is this happening?...I can't see the kids(a brother and sister from the north east) selling their momos in the road side a juice shop is closed 'coz 2 kids who worked there are from the north east...Very polite kids...The girl selling momos is my little daughter's friend...My daughter calls her 'momos aunty' and loves to go to this momos shop.One day this girl came to me in the road and said hi and spoke to my daughter and explained to me that she knows my daughter from her regular visits to their momos shop with her father and i nodded and smiled and then after she left my 2 yr old(then one and half) pointed to her and said
"momos aunty"....I can't see them now, it's empty there it hurts to see that.I am wondering whether
they were frightened and left for their home town....Why should that sense of fright come to their minds....What did they ever do wrong to anyone...they are honest, hard working, friendly people who thought they were happy and safe and were making a living and my mind races to think how long is it before it happens to us...IS Bangalore Safe anymore? Is any place safe at all? I can't imagine this place being not safe for anyone?Makes me wonder if secularism is the way?Does India need a religion?
