As an Indian citizen has right to watch, speak and write as he or she has a complete right to freedom of speech and expressions. As we have observed in few years, this right is been violated by many communities and people which has led to outrage in our society. People are being questioned on the basis of their secularism and nationalism. Is this the nation which we are looking forward to growing in future? If we are not able to deal with our internal problems then how we’ll be able to deal with other things. In 2017, we came to know about various events related to caste, creed, and nationalism. Even the eminent personalities were part of these incidents in one or the other ways. Many journalists were murdered and threatened on a single outrage. Is this example we are setting to others? In recent years nationalism and secularism came to light many times in the country. Many outrages and riots took place due to this issue. Where another country is focusing on overall development, here in India our concern is nationality and secularism. Whereas media is concerned they are playing a pivotal role in bringing up the true ‘colors’ of the country.
Ghoomar Outrage:
This year many leading movies faced controversy one or the other ways, some due to critics or some due to religious values. According to freedom of speech and expression, every individual has right to share his or her opinion in one or the other way. Like Udta Punjab, P.K and many more. This time things have got out of the limit just for a movie. Padmaavat recently broke all the box office record in a single day release. People were awaited to see an epic film, but a particular community was unhappy with the making of the film. According to Karni Sena Padmaavat consist of some elements which have hearted the sentiments of the Rajput community, as per the research they have distorted the history of the Rajput emperor. In any case, Karni Sena didn’t know anything about Padmaavat or the idea behind this film. In the recent news we have observed, Karni Sena has created a nuisance in the whole country, buses were burnt, even school bus was thrashed which was carrying children. In India misogyny is being created on the terms of gender, caste, and race, and our politicians are seeking votes on the basis of it. If we didn’t unite and fought against it, one day would come when there would be no peace and prosperity.
