» Fairness among religions

Where is the fairness among resource allocation to religions ? On one hand, 40 acres of land cannot be given for two months but Rs 600 crores can be given away as subsidies.If one adds back subsidies to Air India, things will look quite good. Perhaps this is a cause of sickness of Air India.It is high time various religions are governed in the same manner. If govt takes over temples and appoints priests it is fair that the same is done for mosques and churches.
