Why is India silent?

In a democracy (if we still call ourselves that), the power of the people is supreme. We know that the government is at fault, corruption has eaten our country and there are more religious leaders than there are social reformers. But strangely, we are all silent.

Whether the Biharis are targeted in Maharashtra or the exodus of the northeasterners, the rest of India remains silent. Something has gone very wrong in the last couple of decades that India has come to a stage where a section of the population fears for its life in a part of the country and flees to another part of the country for safety.
