Hate speech givers are anti-nationals

Hate speech givers irrespective of caste, community and religion must be treated as anti-nations and be punished as such. There must not be any leniency because of political reasons towards anyone who delivers hate speech to disturb communal harmony. Political, religious and spiritual leaders who deliver hate speech irrespective of party and religion must be awarded deterrent punishment and treated as anti-nationals. It is no matter the leaders belong to Muslim, Hindu, Sikh and Christian if they have been found guilty of advocacy that endangers unity and integrity of the nation must be awarded stringent punishment. They deliver hate speech to polarize a particular community in their favour and spread poison in society to disturb the communal harmony. In the name of religion, they befool their brethren and take political advantage out of it. The government of Hyderabad has rightly arrested Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen MLA Akbaruddin Owaisi for delivering hate speech that posed danger for keeping the unity and integrity of the nation. He is facing multiple cases for his alleged hate speech, and remanded to 14 day judicial custody by a magistrate in Nirmal town of Adilabad district. Whether the leader who delivers hate speech belongs to majority or minority community, he must be punished stringently. It is not only the leader from among the minority community who delivers hate speech to promote his politics of vote but also the leaders from among the majority community do the same thing. Before Akbaruddin Owaisi, several leaders from majority community have given hate speech and the law of the land has been applied against them. Secular character of the nation can not be compromised at any cost. No leader or individual should be allowed to tear the secular fabric of the nation at any cost. Hate speakers must be throttled immediately. Fanning religious discord and promoting regionalism must be treated as anti-national acts. Owaisi, the floor leader of his party in the Andhra Pradesh Assembly, is facing a case against him in Adilabad for alleged provocative speeches regarding the disputed Bhagyalakshmi shrine in the Charminar area.Complaints have been filed against him in regard to the same speeches in various police stations in Hyderabad and other parts of the state. Hate speech is a challenge to the nation and the state is required to take immediate action against the speaker. The punishment against the hate speech must be so stringent, deterrent and harsh that no body could dare do so.
