Much has been reported in the print and electronic media about AAP leader being booked for profanity. Politics and religion should never be mixed. Human conduct is fallible. Hence, if an individual hurts anyone’s religious feelings unintentionally, it should not be politicized to capture votes. If a profane act is done by an individual inadvertently, he should be pardoned if he apologizes as every religion believes in forgiveness.
Political parties, for their own benefit, politicise such perceptive issues devoid of considering that their acts can create grave disarray in a state.
