All that glitters is not gold

According to media reports, Shree Chinmoy Brahmachari, Chief Monk at ISKCON Temple in Bangladesh, has been arrested. This is only part of the atrocious comitted by Muhammad Yunus led interim government of Bangladesh. I think that the news reflects double standards exibited by Mr Ahmed, a Nobel peace prize awardee. It shows that having won Nobel peace prize doesn't mean that the person is good. Every one knows that such prizes are awarded by considering nominations and that nominees collect information using different modes including corruption. Once, when DMK was the ruling party in Tamilnadu many years ago, World Bank (or International Monetary Fund) officials as representatives of the Donor Agency, released a Report citing how the money was misused by DMK. After a few months, the then Chief Minister Karunanidhi (present chief minister's father) invited the WB/IMFofficials for a grand luncheon. A few days after this WB/IMF released a Report that the money was well spent and reached the beneficiary communities without any problem. Members of my age (73) of Brahmin community in Tamilnadu know very well about the atrocities committed by DMK against them for no reason.    

I hope that our Government intervenes and takes steps to stop such atrocities against Hindus in our own country as well as abroad. It is universal ethic that any discrimination against any community is indecent.
