Tension prevails in Hyderabad areas
GLN Murthy
The riots broke out at Madannapet, Kurmaguda, Saidabad and other areas of old city in Hyderabad recently cannot be looked at as isolated random incidents. The riots occurred at Sangareddy and Madannapet have root cause of intentional provocation by some sections of the society belonging to orgnisations like MIM and DJS.
Madannapet incident started off due to throwing of dead body parts of cow inside the Hanuman temple. Sangareddy riots started off due to attack on a college student for displaying a photograph in facebook. The sequence of riots erupted in old city has a known connectivity of persons, places and linked up Muslim organisations. Even Police know about the fact but not acting against the culprits shows up the vested interests of Congress party to divide the society in the name of religion.
The involvement of political leaders to create planned riots cannot be ruled out and investigation needs to be done to find out real culprits behind the screen.
The areas affected with riots are Muslim majority and police should identify the elements working with vested interests in these areas and should take steps to stop spreading of the hatred and divisive provocations.
Many observe that following root causes created communal clashes in the old city but police never found to be eliminating the root causes, instead found to be acting according to the interests of MIM and Congress party.
Majlis Party and Congress are found to be losing connectivity with common man due to continuous neglect of basic problems in old city. There is an attempt to regain the strength with divisive politics in the name of majority and minority. People living in these areas are requested to understand the pseudo secular forces and their intentions without which this type of events will continue to happen.
The riots or disturbances found to be happening in old city repeatedly during Hindu festivals but nowhere in other parts of Hyderabad reported with riots during any Muslim festivals. Police should be vigilant and impartial in allowing permissions for festivals. Police should spread message of brotherhood in these problematic areas with peace committees and should use schools and colleges for this purpose.
The culprits involved in throwing meat inside the temple should be taken into custody and police should find out the conspiracy behind the series of incidents.
Police should act impartially and the local ACP of Madannapet, observed to be favouring Muslims, should be suspended immediately.
Government should order for CBI enquiry looking into details of larger conspiracy angle and long-term vested political interests of political parties in old city.
Government should announce compensation for the affected families in riots and hospitalisation expenditur to be supported by the government.
Police should find out connectivity between different riots within the state to stop further riots in near future.
