    Mr.good, b.c.road..You are right. By converting to one religion you people only increase the quantity and not the quality. If possible just find out for me any one of your brother country can able to manufacturer/produce a vehicle of there own?.. Still depends on other country for all the things.. If possible try to give good to society and not to destroy. All religions are good but within people are not good. If God required a one religion he would have made all of them from one community only from the beggginning. Afterall all relgiions are created by humans only..but labelled in the name of unknown god..Deedat/Naik are nothing in front of god..Jai Ho..

    I understand Zakir Abdul Karim Naik is the founder and president of Islamic Research foundation. The people of his stature should denounce the terrorist acts by fellow radical Islamic Terrorists. This is one of the ways to to educate and thus bring these ruthless terrorists to the main streasm. I have to remind one of the commntator that Hindus are still majority in India and by default (per democracy) they rule/own the country.

    Mr. Richard, I agree with Mr. Imran. There is a vast difference between Togadia & Dr. Zakir. The knowledge of Dr. Zakir on different religions is mind blowing. He only speaks of the differences between each religions and gives an opportunity to clarify our doubts. However, this Togadia's knowledge on his own religion is zero. Otherwise, he will not destroy the beautiful, peace loving, ahimsa promoting image of Sanatana Dharma by instigating violence, intolerance towards other religions. He is a selfish, brainless goonda. Simply a goonda.

    @Richard Dubai -
    Mr. Zakir Naik is for spreading peace over the world and he is not spreading fear in the society like THOGADIYA.

    Go listen to what Mr. Zakir Naik has to say, and yes if it is in any way derogatory to the beliefs of this good country then ban him, but if he is here on a peace mission then hear him out….simple

    He also takes questions and answers, so attend and ask, don’t just sit in your chair judging other based on false accusation, lies and fabrication.

    "all the glitters are not gold" by profession both Mr. Zakir Mr. Thogadiya are doctors difference is Zakir Naik stands for peace peace & Thogadiya stands for piece piece.
    Now you compare which docotor takes care care of people and lives and who is here for destroy the lives.
    Think and decide who is gold and who is glitter.

Please work on a long term stable and productive career not only for personal gain but also for the nation as a whole.

    Hindu samajotsava is good thing and all the religious swamijis and scholars are welcome but not the infamous religious fanatic Praveen Bhai Thogadia. He is notoriously famous for inciting religious unrest and violence in the country. As a matter of fact instead of promoting religious harmony, he is inciting violence. Do we really need such leaders to visit and speak to the public ???
