Saffronising Homes


This seems to be a new way of wearing the batch of religion I guess. Makarsankrati 2010 saw this flag fluttering from the bungalow I stay in. Interestingly, this area is under a BJP MLA. But what freaks one out is the fact that now they too know that the occupants are all Hindus. I checked out other homes which had similar contraptions and realised that we are systematically dividing ourselves based on caste and religion, and might there be a reason for enthic clensing....this would be used effectively! Albeit I do appriciate the development work that is slowly but surely happening, but as a nation we seem to have lost the sense of pride that was perhaps experienced a long time ago!
