A man has questioned the powers that be. He was trolled. He was threatened. he apologised. He resigned from the party he supported since his own leader respected the person he had questioned. No! He did not insult anyone. He just questioned somebody's presence and it was taken as an insult. However he raised a question. What was his question by the way?
If I am not wrong then the man's original question was what was the saint revered as he maybe by a community doing in the vidhan sabha. Are we setting a precedent to invite religious speakers to our institutions of elected office. If yes then why stop at Jain why not Sikhism and Buddhism. I named these only because i believe they are pertaining to that state else every religion has something good to say. Or simply keep them away from places like these since it gives the idea a certain religion is being given more importance over others in a place where it is preferred to keep personal opinion limited to the good of people at large. And Jainism which claims to be peaceful but forcibly shuts down shutters of non vegetarian joints during their festivals.
The point is that it has become a habit to create enough chaos to lose the actual point in the din and many times it is deliberate. We are going from a democracy to a situation where only the strong can do what they like.
The public is the strongest, the real mahabali so they are best kept ignorant illiterate and fearful of each other so that they never unite.
