Bypass Road to Slum Politics

No wonder God is "Omnipresent", too many evidences can be found as to how "God" is being used by the "all-wise" human beings. Be it the fight for (of) injustice (Jehad) or social riots (Godhra); everywhere some kind of politics is being played in the name of God, in the name of Religion.

Its' been aptly said "Everyone talks about changing Humanity; but no one thinks of changing him/herself".

The recent initiative of constructing a Bypass road in Bhopal would eventually end up in another political mess - where “God” would play the role of the “Omniprotector”; without the Almighty's wishes though.

One of the Bypass Roads being (or rather intended to be) constructed perpendicular to the NH-12 (running in front of BSSS College/Shakti Nagar/Alkapuri/Saket Nagar) has a small stretch which cuts across the shanty (illegal) slums which has been there since dog years. Nothing was done THEN, but I wish something has to be done NOW. Though they have been assured of relocation and rehabilitation; things are almost in a stand-still. While the city awaits the Bypass road to drive the unwanted traffic (& congestion) away; a "Temple" is being erected by the slum dwellers overnight. And the local authorities still seem to be enjoying there reverie.

This "Temple" would guard the slum-dwellers from the evil (wise) eyes of the people who want to give something good to the city. The "Temple" would help save them the piece of land (call it Kashmir) which never belonged to them. And today the word "Temple" is synonymous to "Political Excuse" with affects almost everything related to our lives. And, hats-off to these slum dwellers, who never choose to erect a temple, in the last 15 years; but for this opportune time.

Would someone stop this, before it’s too late? At least I wouldn’t sit in my home “comfortable” & allow this injustice to happen. Would the local authorities open there eyes; to see God in the good light?

The citizens await an answer here.
