Abstract
Religion in recent times has become the core of contestation. A glance at the world in which we live portrays the horror that religion unleashes. The forms and manifestations are vivid, glaring, multiple and horrendous. No religion is an exception to this: be it Christianity or Islam or Judaism or Buddhism or Hinduism or any other. Except a few pockets the world is gripped by religious frenzy and terror. Ultra religious fundamentalist of different shades and persuasions trigger all sorts of fundamentalist idioms to which many fall prey. South Asia, parts of Africa and Middle-East, Europe and North America amply testifies this phenomenon. As against this backdrop we need to look into PM Modi’s utterance. Prime Minister Narendra Modi a few days ago asserted that the global community must reject any linkage between religion and terrorism so that a “genuine international partnership in the fight against all forms of terror acts.” In his intervention at the East Asia Summit, the Prime Minister also said that “it should be ensured that cyber and space remains a source of connectivity and prosperity, and not new theaters of conflict.” Leaders of 18 countries including US President Obama and Chinese Premier Li Keqiang were present at the one-day ninth East Asian Summit in the Myannarese capital when PM Modi uttered this statement.
