The recent cartoon on the prophet by a Danish newspaper has created widespread protest among the Muslim community. The Muslims have every right to condemn the cartoon as they consider depicting prophet in a wrong way is a punishable offense. Though I respect the sentiments on wrong portraits, let me throw open few controversial things which surely will make one think on why Hindus too can't involve in such protest.
The first issue is about the painter M.F.Hussain. He claims himself as an artist and has been insulting Hindu goddess of worship in the name of paintingg. Why can't the Hindus also reward similar to the one as announced by the Imam on Salman Rushdie or the recent case of UP minister offering 51 crores for the head of the cartoonist?? Are Hindus taken for granted? We don't require a painter who doesn't care to respect other religion sentiments. If the Muslims feel sensitive about portraying Prophet, then MF Hussain dare not provoke Hindus. Let him go to hell with his painting and his Maduri Dixit obsession.
