Mark Tully

The Tully Standard

The passing of Mark Tully at the age of 90 marks the end of a journalistic life that was unusually long, unusually intimate, and increasingly rare. For more than four decades, India was not merely his professional assignment but the central moral landscape of his work.

Abuse of Secularism

Hinduism has never been a structured religion, unlike Christianity. The concept of secularism therefore, does not apply to this country. Tolerance is the name of the Hindu game. This pampering of the minorities went to the extent of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh repeatedly declaring that Muslims ought to have first claim on the country's resources. Muslims First was his regime's slogan, which continued up to 2014.
