    Surely, it is good to remember gujarat riots, but we should also remember that 8oo of 2ooo killed in gujarat riots were hindus, that godhra train hindus were killed and we should also remember security forces who were killed in attack on swaminarayan temple.

    If riots in revenge against godhra carnage are bad surely attack on swamnarayan temple and blasts in bombay as revenge should also be condemned and not justified for gujarat riots.

    Incidentaly, gandhiji said that untouchability is a bloat on hindu religion and if hindu scriptures approve that I wld not believe them. Will a muslim say about same for wrong things in islamic scriptures?

    girishmdave,
    No one justifies those bomb blasts. They happened because of revengeful attitude but any rational mind would discard that.

    “Will a muslim say about same for wrong things in islamic scriptures?”
    There is nothing wring in the Islamic scriptures, its the followers,Muslims, who have been led astray.

    @ I think we should move beyond I-don’t-like-your-religious-beliefs-so-get-rid-of-them attitude.

    BTW, who justified Bombay blasts and the attack on Swaminarayan temple for anything at all let alone Gujarat riots?
