Bharat Jodo Yatra: Peep-in

nsnaqvi@gmail.com (N Naqvi) — Wed, 01 Feb 2023 15:33:00 +0000

This blog post delves into the Bharat Jodo Yatra, a journey that has sparked a mix of positive and negative reactions within society. It explores the events during the yatra that ignited controversy among the masses, leading to an ongoing war of words.

The Bharat Jodo Yatra, a monumental event attracting countless Indians, commenced in Kanyakumari on September 7. Spanning 3,570 km across 12 states, this initiative is part of Rahul Gandhi's mission to 'unite India.' However, the growing popularity of the yatra has stirred unease among some, with every move becoming a topic of criticism within political circle.

From Rahul Gandhi's T-shirt to his public display of affection with Priyanka Gandhi, social platforms have been abuzz with discussions. During the Bharat Jodo Yatra's entry into Uttar Pradesh, Rahul Gandhi embraced and kissed his sister Priyanka Gandhi on stage. This display of sibling affection sparked controversy, with critics labeling it as inappropriate and against Indian culture. Various opinions in public forums and newspapers fueled the debate, questioning the propriety of such gestures between siblings.

This isn’t the first time the Gandhi family has faced backlash for their actions. In March 1983, during the Non-Aligned Movement summit in Delhi, Fidel Castro, the former Chairman of NAM, handed over the gavel to then-Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. Instead of a formal handover, Castro pulled Indira Gandhi into a bear hug, which drew applause from international delegates but criticism from conservative circles in India. Castro later clarified that he saw Indira Gandhi as a younger sister, dismissing the controversy.

Returning to Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi's public embrace, right-wing critics have labeled it as inappropriate and whimsical, unable to halt the momentum of the Bharat Jodo Yatra. Some opinion writers argue that public displays of sibling affection, such as a kiss on the cheek, make many Indians uncomfortable, suggesting more 'dignified' expressions of love. However, is this discomfort truly reflective of reality?

The bond between siblings is one of the purest forms of relationships and should not be tainted with negative interpretations. In today’s India, where hatred often takes center stage, such pure relationships are being misrepresented. A section of society, driven by blind forwarding of twisted narratives, avoids logical discourse. Meanwhile, right-wing politicians fan the flames, claiming to uphold Indian culture while engaging in actions that contradict their own rhetoric.

It’s worth recalling that Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of the Nation, often walked with his hands on the shoulders of Manuben and Sushila Nayar—his grandniece and the younger sister of his secretary, respectively. Critics of the time misunderstood these gestures, failing to recognize the familial context.

As Rahul Gandhi continues his journey, his detractors remain preoccupied with attacking him. Yet, the Bharat Jodo Yatra marches on!

Raksha Bandhan festival of Communal Harmony

nsnaqvi@gmail.com (N Naqvi) — Sun, 22 Aug 2021 04:05:00 +0000

Rakshabandhan is an Indian festival that celebrates the bond between siblings. On this day, sisters tie a decorative thread, known as a Rakhi, on their brothers' wrists as a gesture of love and affection. In return, brothers vow to protect and support their sisters.

Rani Karnavati, who passed away on March 8, 1535, was a princess and interim ruler from Bundi, India. She was married to Rana Sangram Singh (Rana Sanga) of Chittorgarh, the capital of the Mewar Kingdom. She was the mother of two rulers, Rana Vikramaditya and Rana Uday Singh, and the grandmother of the legendary Maharana Pratap.

In a remarkable instance of solidarity and communal harmony, Rani Karnavati sent a Rakhi to Mughal Emperor Humayun, seeking his aid as a brother when her kingdom faced an attack by Bahadur Shah of Gujarat. Touched by this gesture, Emperor Humayun immediately dispatched his forces to assist her. When the Mughal reinforcements arrived, Bahadur Shah fled from Chittor.

According to historical accounts, when Rani Karnavati's Rakhi reached Humayun during his lunch, he paused to learn its significance. After hearing the explanation, he left his meal unfinished, stating, “Food is eaten every day, but the honor and protection of a sister are far more important.” He promptly took action to uphold the promise symbolized by the Rakhi.

This episode serves as a profound reminder of India's history of communal harmony. It prompts us to reflect on why such unity has faltered in recent times. Perhaps it is time to cherish and celebrate these inspiring moments from our past, rather than allowing divisions to overshadow the spirit of brotherhood and coexistence.

STAY UNITED not DIVIDED…!
