My eyes turned moist instantly and a momentary tremble took me aback when I read the news that Gauri Lankesh was shot dead at her residence in Bengaluru. One reason for that is I am a dead sympathizer no matter how bad or good that person was. Unnatural deaths cause much more grief than a death which was expected. My ideologies were initially right and over a period of time, rationalism aligned my thinking to the center. This is when I realized that I could appreciate or criticize both right and left wing appropriately.This doesn't make a Gauri hater by any yardstick.
I have been following all flavors of media including the social media after this unfortunate incident happened. No matter what, killing someone is unjustified. I was indeed threatened by a friend of mine when he could not win over words in a debate in social media couple of years ago. Imagine what people like Gauri would have gone through over a period of time when the words as sharp as laser were expressed and people could not digest it.
What has made me feel sad about is jumping to a conclusion based on biased mindset by the left wing. The moment Gauri was slained, people across media are blaming right wing extremists as killers. There are some rumors that she did have some differences with Naxalites in bringing them to mainstream society. How could we just deny Naxal involvement at such nascent stages of investigation? Press meet in Delhi concluded that Hindu Terror Units have killed her. Okay that was when I was triggered. Now people in left wing are okay to say Hindu Terror Units and they are double okay to attach a religion to terror unit. While when it comes to international terrorism, till date all the terrorists who have been caught or dead or declared threat to the world are Muslims.Every time a terror attack happens the same left wing folks say terrorism has no religion! I do agree with left wing when they say that. But now, this is unfair and biased when you conveniently tag a religion to killing. Just makes me think that left wing does hate Hindus. This is hypocrisy.
For me, terrorism is cowardly whether it's local or international. Killing is not justified whether it is self-killing or killing others. May the justice be brought to Gauri's murder.
