Have heard many people saying that studying for this exam will affect your ideas and make your beliefs weak. But doesn't seem entirely true.

Relieved after reading some comments:)

Individual agency is often sidelined at the behest of religious, traditional & institutional compulsions

Atleast with institutional compulsion, we do it voluntarily through some contract

very happy to see that even after reading leftist-liberandu centric text for upsc preparation and also coming in contact with upsc faculties and aspirants who mostly follow selective secularism and bash the majority religion whatever chance they get, there are still some aspirants who have retained their sanity and not blown away by the propaganda machinery. calling a spade a spade is necessary.

On the Hizab judgement, I feel people are not differentiating between Burkha and Hizab as seen in image posted in this thread above.

Also for upsc we celebrated how Indian secularism is more inclusive then French and why is it better. In India Hindus too wear tilak and thread on hand etc. Whereas france has strict ban on any religious symbol.

Also in Sabrimala case you are preventing someone else (women) to enter, whereas in Hizab case you want to cover your head and neck. 

Further it is true that wrong has been done to Kashmiri pandits. But it should be remembered it is always powerful (in democracy, it is majority) oppressing minority. In Kashmir muslims did wrong to Hindus, but similar is case when muslims killed in Ayodhya 1992 or Sikhs in 1984 or Muslims in Godhara or Brus in Mizoram. Though Kashmiri pandits could not return to their home that is tragic but I think that is due to terrorism (foreign nation sponsored) and because they were relatively affluent community so translocated. 

In Albert Camus's words, "Democracy is not rule of majority but protection of minorities." 

I was wondering when I'll see the intellectual comment. Big words followed by random quote to justify everything peaceful people have done. Completely ignoring empirical evidences from all over the world.

I agree, it's alright for minorities to kill majority because minorities are always the ones opressed. The only problem is, Hindus were reduced to minorities themselves by pseudo intellectuals, commies/retards and the fact that Hinduism is a disunited and unorganized religion. It's not even a religion but still only Hindus are religious fanatics.

I said majority killed in Kashmir and everywhere else. Muslims were majority there

- public life me jisko jo pehenna pehene

-secularism inclusive hai tabhi to educational institutions mein unformity karna hai.

-france me public life me hi religious symbol allowed nai hai.

-in kashmir, the locales were also involved in killing of pandits. they were brainwashed and whatnot.

"they were relatively affluent so translocated". translocated. are you onto some sasta nasha or what

-irrelevant quote dhundke main bhi daal dunga thoda der se

 how do u reason Brus rehabilitation in Mizoram or Rohingyas in Myanmar?  Why tag only one community?
