May Cauvery bless us with Peace

I believed nightmares were the ones that disturb us during the dreams, but they had no connection with the reality. I believed World War III would never happen, because people had developed some intelligence to think about the aftermath of such an event. I truly believed people had evolved from being barbarians and turned out into sensible living creatures.

All these believes of mine are broken today seeing the people's reaction to the Cauvery issue on the social networking sites spreading hatred over each other. Personal attacks, burning of buses, fear of speaking a language and what more are we gonna see in the near future? We literally treat each others as aliens, who have come to destroy the native people.

If Tamil is the mother of all South Indian languages and the other languages are derived from it (as the people claim so), then the whole South India should have descended from the same ancestors and hence there is no possible sense in calling the other language people to be belonging to different race (inam as mentioned by Tamil people, eg. Tamil inam, Kannada inam, Malayala inam etc.). What sense does it make when people say Tamil race taught civilization to other south Indian states when all the south Indian states are said to be evolved from the ancient Tamil race?

Violence should never be accepted. At the same time, the use of words like Kannadigas, Tamilians etc. should be avoided when we are referring to the rogues. If violence is not happening at a place, it does not mean that the people at that place are cowards. It simply means that the government is stable there. We do not need anyone from any state to tell the other state's government to protect the their people. It is the duty of the Government to do it. If it is not happening, there is something wrong with the Government.

Following the riots, police took charge and 4 people were injured severely, of whom 2 were already dead and 2 are recovering after being shot. It is said that one of the dead people was innocent and walking back from his work. For whose good are we fighting?

That might not be the right question. Whom are we fighting at? It is not even a month since we had celebrated the Independence Day, when India was our only concern and the issues between the states did not matter.

We had just proved that just a few senseless people can make us all go mad and fight against each other. We blamed a lot on invasions and deterioration of Indian culture due to Western influence. The enemies are not outside people. our enemies are inside everyone of us. We should defeat that enemy first and show the strength to the world.

This news made the outside world believe that India is not a safe country for humans. Doesn't that strike every cell of our heart hard? When we fight within ourselves, soon the Westerners will intervene in our problems and we all know how worse it will be to our country.

Let us all think for a while on getting a permanent solution for this through the Courts and Constitution for the benefits of the future generations. May peace persist ever after.
