Honorable Home Minister Sri Amit Shah
Dear Sir,
We see shocking videos on social media where kids are being taught by their parents to talk anti India or issue death threats / wish for death of our leaders .
Quite often for PM Modi . This is UNACCEPTABLE.
This kind of toxicity injected into children is tough to remove as they grow up as adults who can be easily primed into violence in the name of religion .
The way parents are responsible if the underage child drives a vehicle the same way parents have to be held accountable for such dangerous talk . Because the words are coming out of a 6-7 year old child it makes it even more alarming . Not less.
Quite striking that it is ONE community that seems to be weaponising children – whether bringing a 20 day old infant to a pointless protest and using it to garner sympathy or poisoning the mind of older kids.
Just because PM Modi does not react to such things it does not mean that people can talk like this and get away with it.
Today they talk like this about the Prime Minister. Tomorrow about their Hindu neighbour . Before we know it we are a nation where second largest majority thinks that issuing death threats is their right .
As a citizen humbly request that a policy be framed for such content. There needs to be a consequence to such conduct. One that is implemented and deters such wannabe jihadis.
Thank you .
