After a long time,i watched #karanthapar's show, not just coz Youtube 'recommended' it to me,but also coz he was interviewing #ArifMohammadKhan sir.
& I WASN'T DISAPPOINTED.
1)how seeds of communalism were actually sown by Rajiv G with #Shahbano & then opening locks of Babri.

2) About the need of historical perspective to see things coming
3) Regarding colonial mindset(divisive measures that led to partition)that still exists in India.
He asks-"When i was MP,was i representing the given territorial area or was i representing the muslim community?"
Epic Ans to people like @asadowaisi who asks what thapar asked here

4) Keeping Firm belief in our Constitution:
"Every MP has a constitutional duty to represent ALL his constituents."
Loved the way he countered Thapar's agenda by pointing out-"THIS IS YOUR OPINION."
Also says how ramzan prayers were being used as calls to vote for certain parties

5) ROLE OF NATIONAL MEDIA IN OVER-PUBLICISING DIVISIVE STATEMENTS BY A HANDFUL OF LEADERS (& THEREBY MAKING THEM FAMOUS) THAT FURTHER COMMUNALISES THE ELECTION...
He rightly says that 99% of muslims aren't scared as much as the media tries to project...

6) Regarding how an SOMEONE have always felt insecure...from muslim league before partition to muslim personal law board during SHAHBANO then & TRIPLE TALAQ now, SOMEONE always felt insecure.
7) Regarding the pathetic politics over MINORITIES,which wasn't envisioned in our constitution.
Arif sir refuses to be branded A MINORITY, as if he's inferior to someone.

8) THIS IS INDIAN CULTURE, WHETHER YOU CALL IT HINDUTVA/INDIANNESS/BHARATHEEYATA, THIS IS NOT A CULTURE OF UNIFORMITY. THIS HAS ALWAYS BEEN A LAND OF INCLUSIVENESS.
TO 9) IF #Secularism MEANS THAT U STRENGTHEN THE SENSE OF BEING SEPARATE AND DIFFERENT & IN ITS NAME, YOU REVERSE THE JUDGEMENT OF THE #SupremeCourt & DENY A MUSLIM DIVORCED WOMAN, WHAT IS AVAILABLE TO EVERY OTHER WOMEN IN INDIA...THEN THAT SECULARISM NEEDS TO BE EXPOSED.
10) ANY EXERCISE YOU UNDERTAKE ON THE BASIS OF THE RELIGIOUS IDENTITY OF A PERSON,GOES AGAINST THE LETTER & SPIRIT OF CONSTITUTION.
TO CREATE A LEVEL PLAYING FIELD IS THE CONSTITUTIONAL DUTY OF THE GOVERNMENT. NO SPECIAL PRIVILEGES SHOULD BE GIVEN ON THE LINES OF RELIGION.

11) ARIF SAAB TEACHING CONSTITUTION TO THAPAR... EPIC SLAPS.
12) FINAL MESSAGE TO ALL INDIANS (when divisive Thapar asks Arif saab regarding his message to 'muslims') - "We should try to be better INDIANS."
