(Before reading the challenge-\u00a0A REQUEST:\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0Please circulate this challenge.\u00a0 Every opponent must see this. Innocent well-meaning people have fallen prey to the lies. Innocent Muslims have been made fanatics by the lies of self-styled secularists who have not stopped to think what the impact of their lies has been on the nation. Narendra Modi himself\u00a0 has done little or nothing to bring out the truth after 2002. He did give all answers in 2002, but not after that. Every truth-seeker and well-meaning person is requested to circulate this. Nothing will dampen the enthusiasm of the liars more than the realization that in the whole world of 700 crore i.e. 7 billion people, there is not a single person who can prove that the state government was culpable, nor prove that the riots were a \u2018genocide\u2019 or a \u2018massacre\u2019. They will realize that anti-Narendra Modi people like Vir Sanghvi, Vinod Dua, Rajdeep Sardesai etc can only lie in their own newspapers and TV channels, but when challenged to debate with us, they refuse to come out. Please do not undermine the impact of this challenge).<\/p>

We declare an open challenge to all our opponents to prove us wrong. Our opponents can search everything written in this site- and prove us wrong on any part. Any place where we are wrong- we will accept our mistake and make the changes accordingly. Also- if anyone succeeds in proving 2 things viz:<\/p>

1- The riots were a pogrom or genocide or massacre and not riots and<\/p>

2- The state government was culpable<\/p>

we will declare that we have been defeated.<\/p>

All Indian English dailies, and others who are vociferous against Narendra Modi and call these riots as a \u2018genocide\u2019, \u2018pogrom\u2019, or \u2018massacre\u2019, and accuse the state government of being a party to the violence, are given this challenge.<\/p>

Also mails have been sent to Teesta Setalvad, Prannoy Roy, Javed Anand, Amulya Ganguli, Prafull Bidwai and Ram Punyani- and not one of them has yet responded. Of course they will not respond. Because if they do, they will be exposed as liars- since they cannot defeat us in this challenge.\u00a0<\/strong>These \u2018rationalists\u2019 who claim to believe in reason rather than emotion, cannot logically and factually counter our arguments, and go on emotion of hatred.<\/p>

Here are the\u00a0debates\u00a0<\/a>we have had until now.<\/p>

1– Debate with Shoaib<\/a><\/p>

2-Debate with Abhishek<\/a><\/p>

3-Debate with Mayank<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
