| Summary, etc | Sri Lanka’s Easter Sunday massacre: Lessons for the international community by Dr. Rohan Gunaratna Penguin Random house sea 2023. 238. Pp. Rs. 599 (PB). ISBAN 97891-492-463-4). Sri Lanka has only 2.1 million Muslims. These were a peaceful segment of the population, almost all suits of one branch or another, till the advent, first of the Jammat-I Islamic in 1954, and then of wahhubism in 1990. These intolerant versions of Islam found no fertile soil in Sri Lanka Muslim community til the rise of Sinhalal nationalsi, its drift into the neo Buddhist exorcism in the South, and a reflexive Tamil Hindu nationalism in Jaffna. From the 1980s onwards, Sri Lanka’s Muslims found themselves caught in the pioneer of Sinhala and Tamil terrorism. It was the profound insanity this created in their minds that opened the way for Wahhabbi and Safi Islam to take root. Gunnamatta, exhaustive study of the psychological roods of the Easter Sunday massacre is therefore, also a warning against where exerted HINDUTVA politics is taking INDIAN. Reproduced |
