The above is a Banner kept in Pudukotai Tamil Nadu where the Christians are posing as Aiyangars,a sect of Brahmins.
Lord Subrahmanya is a Satan,-Christians
Translation of the message in the Image.
“Subrahmanya of Thiruchednur, is a Satan, let us pray for the Blind who worship” – Christian preacher.
I posted an article on how Christians pose as Brahmins in a novel reprehensible act of Religious Conversion.
Mr.Anil Gupta sent in a comment quoting the relevant Indian Penal Code Sections and Numbers.
I am furnishing the Sections of the Act for filing cases against these Christian Audacity and the feeling that they can ge away with anything under the garb of Religious Freedom and Minority Status.
The ridiculing of Hindus’Hinduism in Christian Channels also come under the ambit of the Law.
Please watch local language Christian Channels like Angel TV,Asirvatham TVin Tamil and other corresponding Channels in other Languages.
This Law is applicable to Muslims and the Dravidian Parties as well.
Sections 153-A and 295-A of Indian Penal Code.

Application and Citations of this Law.
. It is brought to our notice that author is an eminent literateur in the State who has written many books and made research in Vachana Sahitya. Therefore, we think it is just and proper that if the author intends to remove the offending portions from the book, it is open to him to file a proper petition before the Government and on filing such petition, in case if Government is satisfied that offending portion is removed from the book, the Government may consider the same and permit the petitioner by lifting ban. We will place on record that the Public Prosecutor fairly stated that if author is ready to remove the offending portion, the Government has no objection to lift the ban.
46. In view of the considered finding mentioned above, no ground is made out by the petitioner to hold that the notification dated 26-9-1997 under Section 95 of the Act confiscating and proscribing the book “DHARMA KARANA” by the State Government is not just and proper.”
All of these are examples, from Facebook, of speech and images encouraging and/or making light ofviolence against women. Both the images and the language are extremely graphic and disturbing. We believe it’s important to make them available in order to illustrate the extent and impact of Facebook’s inaction on gender-based hate speech, but please choose to view them or not at your own discretion.
Many of these images passed Facebook moderation — that is, they were reported as violating Facebook standards, and Facebook declined to take them down. Some of them came down later when media stories highlighted specific pages. Some of them are still live on Facebook.
A note on redactions: we’ve redacted parts of images to protect the identities of women whose images have been used against their will. None of these images are/were redacted on Facebook.
UPDATE: Facebook is claiming that because they took down all the images in our original sample set, there is no more problem. Until Facebook recognizes that the problem is their POLICIES AND PROCEDURES, not any individual pages, we will keep posting fresh examples that are still live each day. Again, many of these have already been reported and allowed by Facebook moderation. They may come down now when we SHAME Facebook with them, but that doesn’t solve the problem. ONLY NEW FACEBOOK POLICIES AND PROCEDURES DESIGNED TO BAN GENDER-BASED HATE SPEECH will solve this problem.

Facebook Post
In a blog post, Facebook said its “systems to identify and remove hate speech have failed to work as effectively as we would like, particularly around issues of gender-based hate.” The company said it would review how it dealt with such content, update training for its employees, increase accountability — including requiring that users use their real identities when creating content — and establish more direct lines of communication with women’s groups and other entities.
Amidst high drama, MIM MLAAkbaruddin Owaisi, who is facing multiple cases for his alleged ” hate speech“, was on Tuesday arrested after medical tests in a government hospital here a day after his arrival from London.(times of india)
Arrested at last?
Update on 8 January 2013.
Akbaruddin Owaisi has returned from his Holiday jaunt and he has been taken to Government Hospital Hyderabad before his impending arrest for his ‘Hate Speech’
Police explain this step as he is a “representative of the people”
Has this courtesy been extended to others?
More the notoriety, more the Respect?
The despicable inaction by the central Government in delaying the holding of a Special Session of the Parliament in handling of the amendments to rape Act and its defiant refusal to take action against Akbaruddin Owaisi, who has been spewing venom against Hindus by inciting the Muslims ,exhorting them to kill Hindus, has one Common reason, a despicable one.
Akbaruddin Owaisi
While the Delhi gang rape victim belongs to the Hindu(majority) community,Owaisi is from the Minority Muslim Community.
Norbhaya the Delhi Gang Rape Victim
I am sure that the Government would have swung into action if the gang rape victim had been a Muslim and Owaisi had been a Hindu inciting Hindus.
The pseudo secularism is taking the country and the Society towards destruction.
What more the Governments expects?
More gang rapes and Hindus and Muslims killing each other?
In the case of Owaisi , what is the meaning of the Constitution of India, if he is allowed to go scot-free?
‘The Constitution of India does not provide for a state religion. Article 25(1) states, “Subject to public order, morality and health and to the other provisions of this Part, all persons are equally entitled to freedom of conscience and the right freely to profess, practise and propagate religion”. Article 19 gives all citizens the right to freedom of speech and expression but subject to “reasonable restrictions” for preserving inter alia “public order, decency or morality”. Article 28 prohibits any religious instruction in any educational institution wholly maintained out of state funds. Article 51A(h) imposes on every citizen the duty to develop the scientific temper, humanism and the spirit of inquiry and reform.[1]
Laws restricting the freedom of expression
India prohibits hate speech by several sections of the Indian Penal Code, the Code of Criminal Procedure, and by other laws which put limitations on the freedom of expression. Section 95 of the Code of Criminal Procedure gives the government the right to declare certain publications “forfeited” if the “publication … appears to the State Government to contain any matter the publication of which is punishable under Section 124A or Section 153A or Section 153B or Section 292 or Section 293 or Section 295A of the Indian Penal Code”.[2]
Section 153A of the penal code says, inter alia:
Whoever (a) by words, either spoken or written, or by signs or by visible representations or otherwise, promotes or attempts to promote, on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language, caste or community or any other ground whatsoever, disharmony or feelings of enmity, hatred or ill-will between different religious, racial, language or regional groups or castes or communities, or (b) commits any act which is prejudicial to the maintenance of harmony between different religious, racial, language or regional groups or castes or communities, and which disturbs or is likely to disturb the public tranquility, . . . shall be punished with imprisonment which may extend to three years, or with fine, or with both.[3]
Enacted in 1927, section 295A says:
Whoever, with deliberate and malicious intention of outraging the religious feelings of any class of [citizens of India], [by words, either spoken or written, or by signs or by visible representations or otherwise], insults or attempts to insult the religion or the religious beliefs of that class, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to [three years], or with fine, or with both.[4][
“Hyderabad, Jan 1: The man who filed a case against Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) legislator Akbaruddin Owaisi in connection with the latter’s Dec 24 hate speech today urged people to approach the courts with more such petitions. Since K Karunasagar received three death threats on the night of Dec 28, he has already appealed for security. The Andhra Pradesh Human Rights Commission has directed the Hyderabad Police Commissioner to enquire into the matter and submit a report by Jan 17. Karunasagar isn’t the only one to be offended by Owaisi’s utterances. Yesterday, the BJP asked the Congress-led government in the state to book the MIM leader as he has made several provocative speeches of late. State BJP president Kishan Reddy pointed out that the government could ask the Election Commission to de-recognise MIM and also get the membership of Owaisi, MLA representing the Chandrayan Gutta constituency, annulled by the Assembly Speaker. Meanwhile, group of eminent citizens demanded that Owaisi be prosecuted for inciting violence. Stressing that his statements can “divide society, vitiate peace and lead to conflicts and riots”, film maker Mahesh Bhatt, social activist Swami Agnivesh, Hamid Mohammad Khan, Irfan Engineer, Mazher Hussain, Ram Punyani, M Mandal, Dr Asghar Ali Engineer and Sandeep Panday called for “exemplary action in the matter to ensure that such intolerable acts are never repeated again, anywhere by anyone and secure peace and harmony in the country.” Owaisi had been particularly belligerent while addressing MIM supporters at Nirmal town in Adilabad district of Andhra Pradesh on Dec 24, 2012. He said: “If the police are removed for just 15 minutes, 25 crore Muslims in the country will show they are mightier than 100 crore Hindus. http://news.oneindia.in/2013/01/01/petitioner-seeks-more-plaints-against-akbaruddin-owaisi-1123638.html
