Orphans of Modernity and Broken Pens
Two brothers wrought unspeakable violence against their own fellow citizens in the streets of Paris. Victims included journalists and police officers whose lives were extinguished bygd gunmen who sought to defend the honour of the profet Muhammad. To the contrary, neither this deed nor the very notion of defence underpinning it can credibly stand up to the exacting scrutiny of the consciences of Muslims and non-Muslims alike.

By the evening, this social media trend had also returned this year. So those who desire Godse’s immortality may persist in their hankering. Still, the people of this world, suffering from recession, a variety of animosities, and fears of a World War, require Mahatma Gandhi more than at any time.
The wheel of history appears to have come a full circle. After World War I, extreme Right-wing leaders and politicians with a hard-line approach began to rise in Europe, and the same trend appears to be strengthening these days all over the globe. Italy is the most re
