#COVID19Pandemic is a time for national solidarity.

EVERYONE IS MAKING SACRIFICES so that the nation can soon get over this pandemic & resume normal activity.

Now imagine how people making sacrifices must be feeling when they see behavior of #TablighJamaat & their brethren? 1/3
1) Migrant worker: Income collapse yet silently went home
2) MSMEs: Sacrifices to keep workers paying while production almost halted
3) Farmers: Delayed Rabi season
4) Small retailers / rickshaw pullers / Auto Driver: Almost zero income for a month at least. 2/3 #COVID19Pandemic
Large companies - Basis yearly turnover projections, salary increments / investment decisions etc are made. Turnover will definitely fall. That will have consequences.

Yet, EVERYONE IS MAKING SACRIFICES IN SOLIDARITY. For their nation. Except one group.Why?? 3/3 #COVID19Pandemic

1n Pointing out that #TablighJamaat is disproportionately responsible for the spread of a disease is NOT Islamophobia. It comes from the methods of political negotiation that muslims developed in the wake of 1857 & have been systematically rewarded by both Britain and India
2n Given their eviction from power, their society never moved past the feudal structure of power capture by few elite families. Given their weak economic & electoral hand: their tactics have remained consistent: escalating through obstinacy, obstructionism & finally violence.
3n An example of this is Partition. Jinnah starts with impossible maximalist demands, then starts obstructionism, & finally calls for violence. Issue is this pattern was rewarded by the British, then by the INC & now by the BJP. This strategy has proved brilliant for them.
