My Dear Friend,

It is hard to believe That how this hatred for me was deep down in you for so many years!
Also it is very hurtful to know that you are not by my side at the time of need.
It is terrifying and horrific to see this change in you as hate of communal-ism for me. We have been together for approx 2 decades, having meals, going on trip and getting tripped, bunking classes having a life. But my friend what changed you? You were not like this at those times or you were you have never presented that to me!

But this is the reality of communal politics which was seeded in you long back and it is grown out like a banyan in you. You have never questioned this plant "Why it is growing,what I will achieve of it?". If you had then today you were not supporting devastation of mine and questioning my nationality and patriotism.

अगर ख़िलाफ़ हैं होने दो, जान थोड़ी है
ये सब धुआँ है कोई आसमान थोड़ी है
लगेगी आग तो आएँगे घर कई ज़द में
यहाँ पे सिर्फ़ हमारा मकान थोड़ी है
मैं जानता हूँ के दुश्मन भी कम नहीं लेकिन
हमारी तरहा हथेली पे जान थोड़ी है
हमारे मुँह से जो निकले वही सदाक़त है
हमारे मुँह में तुम्हारी ज़ुबान थोड़ी है
जो आज साहिबे मसनद हैं कल नहीं होंगे
किराएदार हैं ज़ाती मकान थोड़ी है
सभी का ख़ून है शामिल यहाँ की मिट्टी में
किसी के बाप का हिन्दोस्तान थोड़ी है!

If you are still not budged at the brutality of the state against the students and the people of India.
Call your parents and tell them your education has been a WASTE. You have FAILED as responsible citizen of the country as well as a human. Tell them you are so BLINDED by your IGNORANCE that even books failed to enlighten you, even the graphics failed to make you see the REALITY.

Today you are accepting the atrocities and humiliation for me but in the long run this will be coming back to the next generation of yours. You will be facing major problems not just "MUSLIMS AS YOUR ENEMY" but other religions as well you are going to compromise the national security of our country and the consumption of the resources.

When 130crore of population is not in good position how are you expecting to bring more crore of population from outside and for a better future. Think about education, think about safety, think about medical arrangements.
But you have created a narrative about me so it can not be changed. Although you have failed me, broken my trust, I felt ashamed of you.

On the other hand the people whom I met in previous 3-4 years are standing by my side despite of religion caste and creed. They are standing and opposing this communal and fascist act of current government. They are not smiling and make joke of this issue.
I am not saying that you have directly addressed me and said but indirectly you have been addressing me in DM's, in groups etc.
But it hurts when this is happening and trustworthy person is biased on the basis religion.

I just want to say this to you-

ख़ामोशी अच्छी नहीं इंकार होना चाहिए
ये तमाशा अब सर-ए-बाज़ार होना चाहिए
दोस्ती के नाम पर कीजे न क्यूँकर दुश्मनी
कुछ न कुछ आख़िर तरीक़-ए-कार होना चाहिए
झूट बोला है तो क़ाएम भी रहो उस पर 'ज़फ़र'
आदमी को साहब-ए-किरदार होना चाहिए

I will not be thrashed or demoralized with your opinions I will stand today tomorrow and every time when there will be atrocity, humiliation and oppression will rise, despite of JUSTICE, social, economic and political;
LIBERTY of thought, expression, belief, faith and worship;
EQUALITY of status and of opportunity; and to promote among them all
FRATERNITY assuring the dignity of the individual and the unity and integrity of the Nation.

I believe in Indian constitution and work forward to nourish it not taking it backward and repeating the old mistakes bad history.
Yet my friend it did not hit you then I can understand how the millions of Germans were convinced by HITLER for the persecution of JEWS.....Sorry KILLING of JEWS.

At the end I just want to say patriotism is not to get cushy in the house and accepting the violation of Indian constitution just being communal, it is better to oppose it and save it's integrity. but at the end you are my friend. So, from bottom of my heart which is broken but still I am saying best wishes to you.

From an INDIAN Friend.
