Attacks before and after Indian Independence

Even before Indian Independence, during thousand years of Mogul and British  empire, attacks continued on tolerant and nonviolent people, though the British law and order had curbed it to some extent; and even during seventy years of Congress rule after independence,the terrorist attacks on civilian life in Bombay and elsewhere in India continued,mainly because of the portfolio snatched by Mr Nehru from Sardar Patel who was made powerless to act in his most important duty as a Home Minister and Deputy PM in the grave situation of Jammu and Kashmir; and ultimately several thousands of soldiers are being succumbed to losing their precious and irreplaceable lives since then.

To preserve the neighbourly relations with Pakistan, Mr Modi of NDA Govt. created situation conducive to peaceful discussions, but in the event of continued barbarous attacks including beheading soldiers, he had to use instant surgical strike instead of fighting wars like Indo-Pakistani wars '47 and '65, and Kargil war '99; still innocent soldiers in a bus in a convoy was attacked in Pulvama.

After creation of a staunch Muslim partitioned country-Pakistan,some Muslims preferred to live in the rest of India,clearly  meant, for people of the rest of religions Hindu etc., and they truly understand that they are living in a nice and peaceful progressive country; it seems, a few still behave in a manner followed in former Mugalshahi towards indigenous Hindus, Sikhs etc; while a few Christians as well seem to follow their religions rigidly, but expect indigenous Hindus and others to neglect their own religion under the pretext of sighting 'secularism' in the constitution which is made absurd since Mrs Indira Gandhi's 76 emergency, imprisoning 2/3 members of Parliament in jail, and having the law of 'secularism' passed illegally by 1/3 favourable members; thereby to save herself from probable defeat in election of that time securing the needed votes of mainly Muslims and Christians. The Congress wanted the change in the constitution for their political interests to suppress the voice of 85 percent Hindus etc whom they divided deeply into communal sections.

Since the illegal inclusion of the word 'secular' in the Preamble of the constitution in '76 ,it has defeated the generous purpose Mahatma Gandhi  had longed for creating 'Ramarajya' for plural religions enshrined initially in it. As such,due to all these reasons the horrible chaos is resulted in which Mr Modi strives hard for peace and progress.
