Day dreaming

A month long elections are over in India and the Congress Party has made an easy victory. The Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is going to be elected for the same office. According to the Daily Times, the 76-year-old premier has said, “India’s new government will make security and promoting Hindu-Muslim tolerance a priority while continuing its focus on raising the economic prospects of the country’s millions of poor.” There might be time when our government officials at their win pledge to improve relations with religious minorities. However, this time is nowhere in sight and we can only wish and pray for it. Asif Aqeel
