I-India iyindawo yokuqhathanisa, yizwe elinomnotho wesimanje okhulayo, futhi ngasikhathi sinye nezimakethe ezindala eziphithizelayo, okuyiminyaka efanayo naleyo engamakhulu amahlanu edlule. Yize kuyiqiniso ukuthi ngandlela thile i-India iyisizwe esiseNtshonalanga ngokuphelele, basagcina imikhuba yasendulo futhi engajwayelekile. Ngokulandelayo sizokwazi ezinye zazo.
Ake siqale ngokubalula iqiniso lokuthi eNdiya kukhona abantu abahamba ngomlilo. Yebo, abanye abantu bagubha umkhosi weTheemithi ngokuhamba bengafake zicathulo emgodini nakushisa amalahle. Ukuhamba kwabazinikele kwenzelwa ukuhlonipha unkulunkulukazi wamaHindu uDraupati Amman, emelana nabo bonke ubuhlungu, yize kunjalo ababambiqhaza bahlushwa ukusha izinyawo futhi kwesinye isikhathi balimala kabi.
Kufanele futhi sisho igama le- isiko lokuxhuma. Emkhosini weThookam ungabona imihlane yabantu abazinikele abangamaHindu abagwazwa izingwegwe ezibukhali. Laba bantu baphakanyiswa phansi ngetafula nangosizo lwezintambo.
Isiko le ukulwa nenkunzi Eyaziwa njengeJallikattu, ngokungafani nozakwabo waseSpain, yenziwa ngaphandle kosizo lwasiphi isikhali. Ngenhlanhla, impilo yenkunzi nayo iyasindiswa ngemuva kwempi yezinkunzi futhi njengoba wazi kahle, izinkunzi nezinkomo zingcwele eNdiya.
Okunye okugqamile umkhuba we ukuzishaya.

AmaSulumane amaShiite eNdiya, nakwamanye amazwe afana nePakistan neBangladesh, bayalila lo mcimbi futhi bakhazimulise imizimba yabo enqunu ngamaketanga amaningi.
