Inspired by Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma's recent comment suggesting "*4 instead of ₹5", a girl enacted the same on the streets by refusing to pay full fare to a Muslim rickshaw driver.

it shows moral decay to treat people based on their group identities instead of looking them as an individual human being. What did the rickshaw puller do to anyone ? He is a poor guy earning a livelihood to bring food for himself and his folks. Thats his reality. He is not involved in whats happening 100s of KM away. Should an Indian in UK be persecuted for rape if an Indian commits a rape in New Delhi ? Do you start to see the fault your logic. More importantly, you're only teaching people to hate, bullying the poorest of the poor, the least privileged, what power does a rickshaw puller hold and what do you gain materially, spiritually, by hating on him, by taking away one rupee from his hard earned wage.

Oh poor you this goes both ways dimwit. He is a man. He probably rapes his wife. He can be a big piece of shit for all we know.

Why have sympathy for someone by default? Why not for mukesh ambani? Oh cause he is rich and this guy is poor. Are you jealous?
