Govind D. Belgaumkar reports on the rising tide of communalism in coastal Karnataka, in The Hindu:
“The January 24 pub attack in Mangalore was just one of a series of acts of moral policing in the region…. To make matters worse, fundamentalists from the Islamic and Christian fold, have begun to follow suit. While they are no match for their Hindutva counterparts, Islamist organisations such as the Karnataka Forum for Dignity and a Christian group, the Social Action Committee, are involved in violently curtailing interaction between boys and girls belonging to different communities.
“Hatred based on religion is not limited to organised groups of fundamentalists. It has spread across the social canvas and enveloped large sections of the police, bureaucracy and media. It is not difficult to find voters on the street who say religion will be a factor while voting. Everyone seems to have a story about friends breaking up because of religion.”

Extract from a similar article in The Hindu a few days back (Emphasis mine) :
Hindutva vigilantism has found its echo in minority vigilantism, which however is not comparable to its majoritarian counterpart in its striking power. Ironically, in one of these 10 incidents, the Social Action Committee, a Christian vigilante group, carried out a joint operation with the Bajrang Dal (“we will carry more such strikes” its president, Deepak D’Mello, promised). .

Simple question to this blog owner or any of the commentator: How many Christian owners of flat/houses do you know who have Muslim tenants?
I personally know one Christian guy in my office who has 4-5 houses to let and he doesn’t even take calls of potential Muslim tenants.
Emphasis mine

ChinnadaNakshatra,
Why is it obligatory to ‘rent-a-minority’ ? The ‘Christian guy’ probably knows what he is doing…
