Hindu Airman Gets Waiver From US Air Force To Wear 'Tilak' While In Uniform
ADMIN posted a blog entry in FDF Online News
Indians are hailing airman Darshan Shah who is serving as an aerospace medical technician in the US Air Force for pursuing a religious waiver to allow him to wear tilak while in uniform. The waiver was approved after two years’ wait and the Hindu community in the US and India are expressing their gratitude towards the US military officials. © Twitter Shah is assigned to the 90th Operational Medical Readiness Squadron and has been seeking a waiver since he joined the military. He has been wearing the tilak chandlo (a red dot inside a U-shaped marking) on his forehead since he was in third grade and considers it as his identity. © Darshan Shah “I feel like that’s a part of who I am,” said Shah who is a follower of Bochasanwasi Shri Akshar Purushottan Swaminarayan Sanstha or BAPS. “I’ve been through a lot, and I feel like my religion is helping me through a lot as well in life. When I wear this uniform, that’s an identity as well. But I feel like I have my full identity when I have the Tilak Chandlo on my forehead,” he added. © India Today Through an official communication of the 90th Missile Wing Chaplain Corps, he thanked the US Air Force for letting him wear the tilak. He said, “We live in a country where we’re allowed to practise and have faith in what we want. That’s what makes this such a great country. We’re not persecuted for what we follow or believe. If it wasn’t for the first amendment, I wouldn’t be able to do this at all. I wouldn’t be able to be who I am while being a military member or even a citizen.” Shah plans to become a commissioned officer and serve as a doctor once he completes his degree. He plans to serve in the Air Force for at least the next 20 years. © Airman 1st Class Charles Munoz Religious faith and sentiments can often conflict with the rules and regulations of an institution that requires people to be viewed equally and without discrimination. A very fresh incident happened in India where female Muslim students in Karnataka were asked to remove hijab since it was not a part of the uniform. This created a political and religious row and protests on the streets. © Indian Express A lot of people on social media couldn’t help but relate this incident to the Hijab row. They called out the irony about religious bias in “secular India” and hypocrisy of people who are showing gratitude but won’t support or worse oppose the hijab protest. The same NRI uncles will oppose hijab in schools in India, hypocrisy. — Abhijith (@twelverabhi) March 24, 2022So what is the issue with wearing hijab in Indian Universities? Pls explain. This right is justified but that right isn't? — SAhmed (@SA_Humanitarian) March 22, 2022Thank Ishwar Shah lives in a country which allows him so , In Hidustan he might be thrown out at school level for wearing Tilak. — Stoic (@SachinS56500785) March 23, 2022You all want freedom to practice Hinduism in America where you just settled a generation ago. But here in India muslims are outsider after centuries of living. — Tara khan (@TaraKhanS) March 23, 2022 How is it different? Both religious displays are a choice, both aren’t conventionally a part of the uniform and both incidents happened in secular and democratic countries. Maybe we can learn something from the US Air Force, along with thanking them for making a religious waiver for an Indian-origin Hindu. View the full article -
