Sarbjit actor Randeep Hooda recently shared an interesting thought on social media, suggesting that the media (and social media of course) are responsible for spreading fear and insecurity amongst us all, irrespective of our religions, castes and other differences.

The actor suggests in his post that if we stay away from the news, social media and aggressive religious debates, and reach out to our friends and neighbours belonging to different castes and religions instead, we’ll feel a sense of peace.

If you are Muslim and suddenly start feeling unsafe in (a) country where you’ve lived for more than (a) thousand years..If you are Dalit and start feeling insulted on every moment of life.. If you are Hindu and suddenly start feeling that cows are being slaughtered everywhere... If you are a Jain and suddenly start feeling that your religious piety is being compromised...If you are punjabi and think all the youth are on drugs.Just do one thing... - Stay away from social media... - Don’t watch news...- Stay away from debates on religion...Just look around you at your friends who belong to different castes , communities and religions... And you will find that you are living in one of the best countries in the world!!
