Duplicity

'The oppressed' shouldn't be considered by name or religion rather they should be known as oppressed only. They, being a particular part of society have the right to get proper treatment, care and facilities irrespective of caste or religion that are provided in a society and enjoyed by mass people. They also have right to lead life like other citizens..

But the irony lies here when we shout out one issue regarding oppressed people and remain deaf and dumb on another just dividing 'the oppressed' on the basis of religion or geographical border and overlook the pangs, agonies they go through, we remain no less guilty than the oppressor just by being silent..

...................................

Yes, the situation may be reverse, there mayn't be scope in our hand to aid them but we at least can create awareness among the common people by publicizing the truth regarding real pictures of 'the oppressed', the distress they are going through.

But if we keep a partial view to stand in support of the oppressed by drawing a borderline of religion, then the word 'humanity ' which has become a buzzword these days loses it's meaning terribly and appeal as well. At the same time, the sense of humanity of us- the civil citizens comes into question!!
