Article on Binayak Sen by retired IB officer

This article on Binayak Sen by NT Ravindranath (He is a retired Intelligence bureau (IB) officer) should alert millions of Indians about modus operandi of such organizations and activists.

SC’s logic while giving bail to Binayak sen, that possessing Naxal material is not a proof that he or she advocates that ideology is beyond comprehension. Binayak sen did not only possess such material but was a medium used to exchange letters between a deadly dangerous wanted Naxal leader and Naxal supporter.

Naxal agenda is open and transparent. Naxals and Maoists are butchering our security forces and innocent tribals. To call it a Gandhian movement is height of intellectual bankruptcy and lunacy.   Who so ever may be responsible for poor conditions in tribal areas, but this is not the way to solve that problem.

What is the ultimate aim of these so called intellectuals? They have an agenda to disintegrate this country into pieces.

How is that most of these NGOs are funded from overseas dubious or overt or covert Christian missionary organizations?

How is that most Magsaysay award winners become a sympathizers of Naxalism or separatist activities in India?

Recently a Pakistani ISI supported NGO in USA, championing the cause of Kashmiries has been exposed by FBI of USA. They have sponsored many Indian intellectuals like Kuldeep Nair, activist Gautam Navlakha, Rajindra Sacchar, Dilip Padgaonkar (ex editor TOI and J&K interlocutor) etc. to many seminars on Kashmir (http://www.indianexpress.com/news/padgaonkar-j&k-interlocutor-is-among-fais-many-guest-speakers/820304/).

At the end of such sessions in five star hotels, Kashmir’s right to self determination or secession used to be endorsed as consensus resolution. No dissent note by any of the Indian intellectuals attending these five star seminars was ever noted. They have been travelling business class, wining and dining in five star hotels, all funded by Pakistani ISI money to champion the cause of Kashmir.

Most of them at least say that they believe in non violence and simple living style of Gandhiji.  They all believe in Socialism and oppose American policies but have no problem with such lavish travels and stays in five star hotels in USA, London or Geneva. They do not want to ask source of these massive funding.  Only fools can believe such explanations.

First change the demography of the region, either throwing ethnic groups out or by conversion and then start the separatist movement.

This is the story in Kashmir, Nagaland, Mizoram and Assam now. Use human right, woman right, tribal right, cultural pluralism, Naxalism, Maoism and last but not the least minorityism and secularism to promote these activities.

Exaggerate actions of Security forces as excesses, add allegations of rapes, dilute or get scrapped all anti terrorist laws to shield these activists and their movements from Police and local Government actions. If you talk anything against this, you are branded as nationalist. It is not an accident that most of the National Advisory Council (NAC) members are Naxal sympathizers.

Recent Communal Violence Bill (http://nac.nic.in/pdf/pctvb_amended.pdf) proposed by NAC speaks volumes on the philosophical make up of members of NAC. If you utter a single word against this bill then you are branded as communal.

Every citizen of India belonging to any political party should take these issues seriously. If India remains united then only political parties and democracy will survive. Story of Binayak Sen is only the tip of the iceberg. Real intellectualism is to understand the nefarious designs of these self style intellectuals and their overt and covert supporters in print and electronic media, Government and political parties. This article is a step in that direction.

Strange and dubious case of Dr. Binayak Sen
By N. T. Ravindranath

Thursday, 21 July 2011, 16:20

Dr. Binayak Sen, a "civil liberty" and "human rights activist", was arrested by the Chhattisgarh police on May 14, 2007 under the provisions of the Chhattisgarh Special Public Security Act, 2005, (CSPSA) and the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act, 1967 on the charges of treason, sedition, criminal conspiracy, links with Maoists and acting as a courier for Maoist leader Narayan Sanyal.

Earlier on May 6th 2007, the Chhattisgarh police had arrested a Kolkata-based businessman Piyush Guha, a tendu leaves trader from Raipur following recovery of some letters written by jailed Maoist leader Narayan Sanyal from him. Guha’s confession about the involvement of Binayak Sen in passing on these letters to him had led to Sen’s arrest.

Dr. Binayak Sen, accompanied by his wife Ilina Sen, came to Raipur in the late eighties and worked among the tribals in the area promoting health care activities. He founded an NGO called ‘Rupantar’ that trained community health workers to work in villages. He was also a "noted civil rights activist" who reportedly had maintained close links with the Maoists in the area.

Dr. Sen was also in the forefront in launching a campaign against the “Salva Judum”, a people’s resistance movement against the Maoist activities in the area. Arrest of Binayak Sen in May 2007 had led to wide-spread protest programmes by civil society groups both within India and outside.

In December 2007, while Sen was lodged in jail, the Indian Academy of Social Sciences (IASS) declared Binayak Sen as the winner of RR Keithan Gold Medal for "his outstanding contribution to the advancement of science of Nature-Man-Society and his honest and sincere application for the improvement of quality of life of the poor, the downtrodden and the oppressed people of Chhattisgarh”.

Binayak Sen was honoured with this award in absentia by Balachandra Mungekar, President of the Indian Academy of Social Sciences and Member of Planning Commission at the 31st Indian Social Science Congress held at SNDT university, Churchgate, Mumbai on 29 th December 2007. The UPA government obviously found nothing wrong in a dignitary like the Planning Commission Member honouring a jailed pro-Maoist leader at an official function.(http://www.freebinayaksen.org/?p=92).

Again in April, 2008, while Sen was still in jail, the Global Health Council nominated him as the winner of the 2008 Jonathan Mann Award for Global Health and Human Rights. Following the announcement of this award, 22 Nobel laureates had made an appeal to the government of India to allow Dr. Sen to travel to Washington DC to receive the 2008 Jonathan Mann award in person at the end of May 2008. (http://www.binayaksen.net/2008/05/nobel-winners-call-for-release-of-dr-binayak-sen/). After the rejection of this appeal, Sen’s wife Ilina Sen had received the said award.

All efforts by Sen to come out on bail remained unsuccessful for next two years. He was finally granted bail by the Supreme Court on May 25, 2009. On December 24, 2010, Civil rights activist Binayak Sen, Naxal ideologue Narayan Sanyal and the Kolkata businessman Piyush Guha were found guilty of sedition by a Raipur court for helping the Maoists in their fight against the state. All the three were sentenced to life imprisonment by the Additional District and Sessions Judge of Raipur, B P Verma.

The civil society organizations conducted rallies in different cities in India and also in some cities in North America and the UK on 30th January, 2011, the day of Gandhi’s martyrdom , in protest against the life sentence awarded to Dr. Binayak Sen and seeking his immediate release from the jail. They also sought the abrogation of Chattisgarh Special Public Security Act, 2005 and the alleged colonial era sedition law.

Protest demonstrations were also held in front of Indian consulates in New York, San Francisco, Washington DC, Vancouver and London on that day. The civil rights groups which took a leading role in organizing the protest rallies in western countries on 30th January included rights groups like the Asian Law Alliance and the People’s Health Movement, anti-war groups like Answer Coalition and the Boston Mobilisation, women’s rights groups such as the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom, and students groups from Harvard University and the University of California, Berkeley.

A coalition of 55 civil society groups from the US, the UK and Canada also launched an on-line signature campaign for a petition to be submitted to the President of India. (http://www.srai.org/global-online-campaign-for-binayaks-release/). The petition besides seeking the immediate release of Binayak Sen, also demanded the repeal of alleged draconian sedition laws and the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act and disbanding of civil militia such as the Salva Judum and the Maa Danteshwari Swabhiman Manch.

A group of 40 Nobel laureates from 12 countries had also send a joint petition to the Prime Minister of India expressing their astonishment and dismay at the unjust life sentence handed down to Dr.Binayak Sen and seeking his immediate release on bail. (http://www.indianexpress.com/news/release-binayak-sen-nobel-laureates-tell-in/748006/).

Meanwhile the Chhattisgarh government had granted permission to an eight-member delegation from the European Union to watch the Chhattisgarh High Court’s hearing on rights activist Binayak Sen’s bail plea and appeal against his life sentence on 24th January, 2011.

Earlier the ministry of external affairs (MEA) had forwarded a request from the eight-member European delegation seeking permission to watch the court proceedings in Bilaspur on 24th January to the Chhattisgarh government. The Chhattisgarh government forwarded the request to the High Court, leaving it to the judiciary to take a decision. The Observer Mission included representatives from Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Sweden and the UK.

Binayak Sen’s plea for bail and suspension of the charges of sedition and links with Maoists slapped on him was however rejected by the Chhattisgarh High Court on February 10, 2011.
(http://www.deccanherald.com/content/131724/).

Binayak Sen granted bail
The Supreme Court which heard Dr. Binayak Sen’s bail plea on April 15, 2011, however rejected the sedition charges against him as baseless. (http://in.news.yahoo.com/supreme-court-grants-bail-binayak-sen-20110414-235458-452.html). The Bench pointed out that mere possession of Maoist literature did not make a person Maoist. But Sen had carried not only Maoist literature but also letters written by jailed Maoist leader Narayan Sanyal which were meant to be passed on to other Maoist leaders through Piyush Guha.

Maoist leader and politburo member Narayan Sanyal, who is undergoing imprisonment in Chattisgarh jail, is not an ordinary leader. He had led the Naxalbari uprising in 1967 along with late Charu Majumdar and Kanu Sanyal. He is thus a living legend for the Maoists in the country. During his more than 40 years association with various naxal outfits, he has committed innumerable offences including murders. Binayak Sen had maintained very close relations with Narayan Sanyal and frequently visited him in the jail. Between May 26, 2006 and June 30, 2007, Dr.Sen had met Sanyal 33 times and served as his courier for passing on seditious letters written by Sanyal to other comrades through Piyush Guha, a tendu leaf trader.

Sen’s Maoist links
Dr. Binayak Sen is the all India Vice President of the People’s Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL), a civil society group. Originally known as the People’s Union for Civil Liberties and Democratic Rights (PUCLDR), it was founded by veteran sarvodaya leader Jayprakash Narayan in 1976 as a non-political platform for all the political parties to come together for the defence of civil liberties and human rights.

The organization was re-christened as the People’s Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL) in 1980 and senior lawyer V.M. Tarkunde was elected as its first President. Over the years it has however lost its image as an independent civil liberty organization because of its increasingly pro-naxal leanings. Presently it is functioning like an over-ground front of the CPI-Maoist outfit (http://naxalwatch.blogspot.com/2010/05/pro-maoist-groups-under-close-watch-of.html)

Like other civil society groups, the PUCL also supports various militant movements in the country like Islamic terrorists, Kashmiri separatists, LTTE, United Liberation Front of Assam (ULFA) and North East insurgents. Binayak Sen is thus a supporter of not only the Maoist movement, but all the militant and secessionist movements in India. (http://www.pucl.org/bulletins/2011/PUCLmar11.pdf).

Binayak Sen has also been a staunch opponent of the “Salva Judum”, which is a people’s resistance movement against the Maoist menace. Besides extorting money from the tribals in the area, the Maoists were also asking every tribal family to spare at-least one member, either a boy or a girl, to join the Maoist movement. Children of those who resisted the Maoist diktat were kidnapped and forcibly made to join the Maoist cadre. Many of those who dared to oppose the extortion and kidnapping were brutally killed.

It was under the backdrop of such Maoist atrocities that the Salva Judum was formed. It was supported by all political parties, including the congress and BJP. It is true that that the state government also supported the Salva Judum, as it was complementing the government efforts to curb the Maoist influence in the area. However the Maoists and the civil society groups like the PUCL opposed the Salva Judum movement vehemently and they also accused the state government of encouraging fratricidal killings among the Adivasis of the area by supporting the Salva Judum.

The civil society groups also managed to use their tremendous influence among the legal fraternity to impose a lot of restrictions on the functioning of the Salva Judum. In a great set back to all anti-Maoist campaigns, the Salva Judum and funding of Special Police Officers (SPOs) has finally been banned by the Supreme Court as per its judgment on 4th July, 2011. (http://statetimes.in/news/index.php/2011/07/06/supreme-court-bans-use-of-tribals-in-salwa-judum/).

Binayak Sen was in the forefront in organizing the anti-Salva Judum campaign in Chhattisgarh, clearly showing his pro-Maoist leanings. (http://www.dnaindia.com/india/report_binayak-sen-s-opposition-to-salwa-judum-made-him-target-wife_1489319).

According to the charge sheet filed by the Chhattisgarh police against Binayak Sen, the police had conducted a thorough search of Binayak Sen’s residence after his arrest and had seized many incriminating documents, mainly from his personal computer. (http://www.pucl.org/bulletins/2011/PUCLmar11.pdf).

However the police could not find any medical examination room, patient examination table, stethoscope, medicines, B.P.kit and patient treatment register. The charge sheet further alleges that though he calls himself a children’s doctor, there was no evidence of his having treated any child. The police hence came to the conclusion that he was a doctor only in name as treatment of patients was non-existent.

As per the documents seized from Piyush Guha and also from Sen’s residence, Narayan Sanyal is a permanent member of the polit bureau. He was also given the responsibility for strengthening the organization in Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Bihar, Andhra Pradesh and Orissa. Documents seized also revealed that the Andhra Pradesh government, as per its order GOMS No.151, dated 25-03-2006, had announced a reward of Rs.12 lakh for any information on Narayan Sanyal, prior to his arrest.

The PC seized from Binayak Sen contained copies of government notification number F 4-101/ Griha C/07 of Home Department, Govt. of Chhattigarh, granting extension to the ban order on CPI-Maoist and six of its front organizations for one year from April 11, 2008 and Maoist analysis reports on women’s status, jal-jungle-zamin hamara hai campaign and the people’s war, as per the charge sheet.

Crime No.75/06 was registered at Tikrapara P.S. in Chhattisgarh in 2006 when some Maoists threw pamphlets into the MLA rest house in Raipur threatening to blow up the building with all its inmates. The police later arrested K.S.Priya @ Malti in this regard and also seized pistols, grenades, laptops and naxal literature from her. Binayak Sen’s computer records showed that he was in contact with her since 1999.

Tushar Kanti Bhattacharya @ Prakash @ Raghu @ Shyam was arrested by the Patna police from Thana Buddhaji colony, Patna in September 2007 in connection with his naxal activities. The police had recovered anti-national literature, communication equipments, explosives, detonator, fuse-wire, gelatin, etc. from him. His wife Shoma Sen, who works as a lecturer in Nagpur is a PUCL activist. As per the records seized by the police from the PC of Binayak Sen, both Dr.Sen and his wife Ilina Sen were linked with the activities of Shoma Sen and her husband Tushar Kanti Bhattacharya.

Maoist leader Prafull Jha was arrested by DD Nagar police, Chhattisgarh, in connection with CR.No.14/2008, under Arms Act, Telegraphy Act, Special Public Security Act, UAPA and Explosives Act. The police had also seized a pistol, walkie-talkie and wireless sets from the bag of his companion K.S.Priya @ Malti. These items were recovered while being dispatched to some important naxal contacts. Malti has admitted that she is the wife of prominent naxal leader Gursa Usendi @ Vijay who lives in forest and engaged in naxal activities. Binayak Sen’s computer records showed that he was in direct contact with such dangerous naxal leaders.

The cell phone of accused Piyush Guha was seized by the police on 6-5-2007 following his arrest in connection with his suspected Maoist links. Further investigation by the police in this regard revealed that his cell number 9732449150 was actually issued to one Ajit Biswas and that Piyush used to change his SIM card from time to time to avoid getting caught and to keep his naxal identity secret.

Prior to his conviction on December 24, 2010, Binayak Sen was released on bail by the Supreme Court on 25,05.09.The very next day a tripper was damaged by the Maoists at village Gulum kondo, 200 metres from Bodra nala on the main road. The culprits also left behind some Maoist pamphlets expressing happiness at the release of Dr Bnayak Sen and calling for intensifying the movement for the release of all other jailed comrades as well. The pamphlets also proclaimed opposition to imperialism, capitalism, Tata, Essar and Raoghat projects and slogans such as   ‘long live CPI (Maoist)’.

In the print out taken from Binayak Sen’s PC, there is mention of Vijay @ Gudsa Usendi of Kisan Sangharsh Samiti saying that the police and other officers are engaged in a dangerous and violent war against the people. There is also a mention of the need for establishing a janata sarkar through a people’s war.

In print book No.15, on page 259 there is a copy of a letter written by Sen’s wife Ilina Sen, as given under.

Dear comrade,
I have recd comrade Kusumlatha’s letter. It is unfortunately not possible for me to attend the drafting committee meeting on March 26 at Mumbai. Contd.
Please stay in touch re further development in this regard.
Ilina Sen

As per the documents taken from Sen’s CPU, he sometimes calls himself Maha Sachiv, Project Director, General Secretary or State Convener. It is also found that many hardcore Maoist leaders like Amitab Shrivastav, Shankar Singh, Prafull Jha, Ganashyam and Malti were associated with the NGO ‘Rupantar’ in the past. The life sentence given to Binayak Sen may be disproportionate to his actual crime. But there is enough evidence to conclude the involvement of both Binayak Sen and Ilina Sen in Maoist activities and the NGO Rupantar as a Maoist front.

Campaign by western agencies to give an image boost to Binayak Sen

Before his arrest in May, 2007 in connection with his Maoist links, Binayak Sen was hardly known to anybody outside Chhattisgarh. But after his arrest, there were protest demonstrations organized by civil society groups in different parts of the country and even in some cities outside the country.

The declaration of Binayak Sen as the winner of R.R.Keithan Gold Medal by the Indian Academy of Social Sciences in December, 2007 and the Global Health Council’s announcement of Jonathan Mann Award for him in 2008, both while he was still held in jail, and the subsequent campaign by 22 Nobel laureates for Sen’s release to enable him to go to Washington to receive the Jonathan Mann award, were all well-orchestrated moves by the civil society groups and some government agencies in India to give a big image boost to Binayak Sen.

The wide-spread protest programmes by civil society groups in many West-European cities after Binayak Sen was sentenced to life on December 24, 2010 in connection with the sedition charges slapped on him, and the on-line protest campaign by 40 Nobel laureates demanding Sen’s immediate release were also part of a well-planned strategy to project him as an international celebrity.

It was thus the civil society groups, both within India and outside, which played a prominent role in transforming a non-entity like Binayak Sen into an international celebrity within a short span of time. By condemning and maligning the Indian courts and mustering the support of so many Nobel laureates for the campaign to press for the early release of Binayak Sen, the civil society groups in the western countries showed blatant disregard for Indian justice system, besides being guilty of gross interference in India’s internal affairs.

Why should so many Nobel laureates come together and launch a campaign for the release of an ordinary civil rights activist of India? Clearly some western agencies involved in promoting Maoism in India had played a key role in presenting a jailed Maoist doctor as a respectable international celebrity. The episode also demonstrates the eternal subservience of the Nobel laureates to the American and Norwegian political leadership. The Indian civil society groups also marveled in projecting how flawed is the system of dispensation of justice in India. It also showed how international awards can be manipulated to bestow instant stardom on any person.

The Indian government was also guilty of not only allowing a jailed Maoist leader like Binayak Sen to win a prestigious award, but allowing a Planning Commission Member to honour him ‘in absentia’ at a public function. The whole episode was a vulgar display of manipulative politics designed to project Binayak Sen as a celebrity doctor who selflessly worked among the tribals and was unjustly branded as Maoist and jailed because of our flawed justice system.

It was rather strange and funny to see an eight-member team of observers coming from the European Union to watch the proceedings at the Chhattisgarh High Court to see for themselves how the Indian court was dealing with Binayak Sen’s bail application, as though he was such a big international celebrity.

Sen’s new assignment with the Planning Commission

Within weeks of getting bail from the Supreme Court in connection with the charges of sedition, Binayak Sen was appointed by the UPA government as a member of Planning Commission’s Steering Committee on Health, which will advice the panel on the Twelfth Five Year Plan. The Centre apparently found nothing wrong or improper in appointing a life convict on bail as a health advisor under the Planning Commission.

A few days after the Planning Commission endorsed an advisory role for Dr.Binayak Sen, a study conducted at the UK’s Cambridge University termed his arrest as symptomatic of the problems faced by tribals in India. The study, funded by UK Economic and Social Research Council, criticized India for continuing with the sedition laws introduced by the British in 1870. It said that the tribals who first suffered at the hands of the British, continue to be the victims of exploitation, now by the Indian state and big business. The paper titled “Understanding the conviction of Binayak Sen” is coauthored by Lawrence King and Jonathan Kennedy. Western scholars continue to drum up support for Binayak Sen through such studies, etc. at regular intervals

UPA government’s support for Maoist and other militant movement

The UPA government’s over-enthusiasm in holding peace talks with Maoists, ULFA militants and Pakistan and its opposition to all tough anti-terror laws clearly indicated that the government wanted to follow a soft on terror policy. The spurt in jihadi terror and Maoist violence was the direct result of this soft on terror policy of the government. Allowing a jailed pro-Maoist leader like Binayak Sen to be felicitated at an official function with a prestigious award and later when released on bail, his appointment as a member of Planning Commission’s steering committee on health, showed the UPA government’s arrogant display of support for Maoism.

The UPA government's sympathetic approach to naxal movement had resulted in the sabotage of a major anti-naxalite operation in Andhra Pradesh in 2005. About 30 top leaders of the CPI-(Maoist) including State Secretary Ramakrishna and some top leaders from Chattisgarh and Bihar who were holding a secret meeting deep inside the Nallamala jungles in Prakasam district of Andhra Pradesh were encircled by special anti-naxalite Grey Hound Commandos on February 3 2005.

However the said operation had to be called off at the last minute because of an emergency directive from the Centre seeking an immediate halt to the operation so as to pave the way for a congenial atmosphere for peace talks with Maoists. If there was no such intervention from the Centre, the police commandos could have gone ahead with their operation and captured or killed all those top Maoist leaders which would have broken the backbone of the Maoist movement in the country.

The Manmohan Singh-led UPA government should be held accountable for all the subsequent Maoist violence and killings in the state. (http://naxalwatch.blogspot.com/2005/02/greyhounds-trap-notorious-ramakrishna.html)

It was only to get some sort of legitimacy to the UPA Government’s pro-Maoist stance that the Planning Commission under the UPA government had set up an expert committee in 2006 to make a detailed study about the Maoist problem and recommend necessary measures to tackle the same.

The 16-member expert committee consisting mainly of pro-Maoist civil society activists and former bureaucrats headed by D. Bandopadhyay, a retired IAS officer, submitted its report in April, 2008. The report described the Maoist problem as a socio-economic one and said that it should be tackled with sympathy and understanding and not with force.

On the other hand, the report was highly critical of the “Salva Judum” movement of Chattisgarh, and wanted a ban on it, despite the fact that Salva Judum was only an all-party people’s resistance movement formed in desperation by the villagers to defend themselves against the Maoist violence.

But the expert committee gave a clean chit to the Maoist movement, and sought a total ban on “Salva Judum”. Only two members in the expert committee, both former police officers, had expressed their dissenting voice against the conclusion of the committee. (http://planningcommission.nic.in/reports/publications/rep_dce.pdf).

The UPA government accepted the expert committee report on Maoism and now formally considers the Maoist movement as a socio-economic problem. The government also gave Rs.25 crore each as special development assistance to sixty Maoist-affected districts for poverty alleviation programmes in 2010, which has now been raised to Rs.30 crore for the current year. (http://www.thaindian.com/newsportal/business/60-maoist-hit-districts-to-get-rs30-crore-each_100508267.html)

As suggested by the expert committee, the government wants to adopt a conciliatory attitude towards the Maoists. Meanwhile there has been an unprecedented rise in Maoist violence in the country, especially in states like Chattisgarh and Orissa since last two years. In an ambush carried out by the Maoists in Rajnandagaon district of Chattisgarh, 30 policemen, including a superintendent of police, were massacred on June 12, 2009.

In another brutal ambush staged at Dantewada of Chattisgarh , 76 CRPF men ie almost one company of CRPF was wiped out on April 6, 2010. (http://www.aajkikhabar.com/en/news/672984/672984.html). In yet another ambush carried out by the Maoists in Narayanpur district of Chattisgarh, 26 CRPF men were killed on June 30, 2010. (http://www.ndtv.com/article/india/maoist-attack-crpf-party-in-chhattisgarh-26-jawans-killed-34642).

While such killings continued at regular intervals in Maoist-infested areas, the government was still engaged in an academic debate over whether tough measures were really needed to curb the Maoist menace. The government was clearly divided over the issue with the National Advisory Committee members still advocating caution and patience. Thus while the government refuses to take a firm stand against the Maoists, the massacre of civilians and security personnel continues unabated.

Comments
There is nothing unusual about UPA government’s sympathy for Maoism. Pro- Maoist leader Dr. Binayak Sen is a prominent leader of the civil society. Sonia Gandhi, who has filled up her National Advisory Council (NAC) with civil society activists and supporters is the chief patron of the civil society activists. The UPA government, influenced by the civil society, has always been sympathetic to not only the Maoist movement, but all militant movements in the country.

The first major decision of the UPA government after coming to power in 2004 was the abolition of Prevention of Terrorism Act (POTA), a move welcomed by all terrorist and secessionist outfits in the country. (http://www.rediff.com/news/2004/sep/18spec1.htm).

Since then, the UPA government had been showing extra-ordinary interest in holding peace talks with Maoists, ULFA militants, Kashmiri militants and also with Pakistan. There had been about 30 major jihadi terror strikes in India since last five-six years, including the 2006 serial train blasts in Mumbai and 2008 Mumbai terror strikes, in which hundreds of people were killed and many more hundreds were injured. But the UPA government continues to stick to its soft on terror policy. If our government itself supports all militant and secessionist movements in the country, how can our motherland survive as a nation?

Where was Rahul Gandhi on the night of 26th Nov 2008 - Mumbai Terror Attack

2011-07-24T08:26:00.002+05:30

That Rahul Gandhi is an imbecile of highest order is well known. What always surprises me is how little people know about this.

Rahul in party mood soon after Mumbai crisis

Even before the tears of Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan’s mother could dry up, Congress general secretary and heir apparent Rahul Gandhi went partying with his pals at a farmhouse on Delhi’s outskirts.

The Prince partied hard, till 5 in the morning, on Sunday at the ‘sangeet’ for the forthcoming wedding of Samir Sharma, his childhood friend. They were at a sprawling farmhouse at Radhey Mohan Chowk, the haven of people who lead charmed lives beyond Chhatarpur.
Just a day earlier, his sister Priyanka Vadra had caused a flutter by saying the late Indira Gandhi would have “made us very proud” by the way she would have reacted to the Mumbai terror strikes.
Mumbai appeared to be far from her brother’s mind as he boogied at the farmhouse with Samir Sharma, US-based furniture designer son of Captain Satish Sharma, the late Rajiv Gandhi’s flying partner who nursed the First Family’s pocketborough, Rae Bareli, till Sonia Gandhi chose to contest from there in 2004.

The Prince seemed to be completely out of sync with the mood of the nation post-26/11. Since Wednesday night, officials have been cancelling parties they were meant to host and even restaurants called off special events.
Saturday night’s ‘sangeet’ was a lavish affair. It was hosted by Leena Musafir, sister of the woman with whom Samir is getting married, and her husband Inder. The party was attended by over 800 guests, including regulars at Page 3 dos.
“When everyone is cancelling parties or just keeping them low-key, Rahul Gandhi had no business to be celebrating. His action makes us lose faith in future leaders,” said Ajay Bahl, a leading corporate lawyer who was trapped in the thick of the action on 26/11 at The Oberoi, Mumbai, but managed to escape with the help of the hotel staff.
The Gandhis, including Sonia Gandhi’s mother Paola Maino, were present in strength at the 2004 wedding of Samir’s sister, Sarika, who is married to actorturned- TV producer Rahul Bhatt. Sarika and Rahul now manage a television production house.The two families may be very close — Captain Sharma and his wife, Sterre, were present throughout the very private wedding of Priyanka Gandhi and Robert Vadra — but the circumstances now are very different.As a guest at the ‘sangeet’ remarked on the condition of anonymity, “We were all partying, but none of us is a public person. Rahul Gandhi, however, is. He must be more responsible in his social appearances".

Muslims must have the ‘first claim’ on resources - Manmohan Singh

2011-02-18T10:46:00.005+05:30

On Saturday, 9 Dec 2006, birthday of Sonia Gandhi, the Maharani of India, her loyal family servant, Dr. Manmohan Singh - officially the Prime Minister of India (not Pakistan or Bangladesh) said that Muslims must have the first claim on national resources.

This is a secular country, so a Talibani statement like this needed to be highlighted.

And yet, search Google and you find only the Indian Express version and the IBN Live version. A diluted version of news appearing on The Hindu also comes up.

As a look at the Times of India archives shows, the article exists, but even for a search like "Muslims must have first claim" it does not appear.

This is a common trend for many articles / news that highlight the negatives of Congress / other traitors. They simply disappear from Google.

'Muslims must have first claim on resources'
Posted: Dec 09, 2006 at 1139 hrs IST
Press Trust of India

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said plans for minorities, particularly Muslims, must have the ‘first claim’ on resources so that benefits of development reach them equitably.

"We will have to devise innovative plans to ensure that minorities, particularly the Muslim minority, are empowered to share equitably the fruits of development. These must have the first claim on resources," he said in his address at the 52nd meeting of the National Development Council (NDC) inNew Delhi.

The Centre's resources, he added, will be stretched with greater responsibility given to states in this regard.

"The Centre has a myriad other responsibilities whose demands will have to be fitted within its overall resource availability," he said.

The Planning Commission will undertake a thorough review of ongoing programmes to eliminate those which have outlived their original rationale, Singh added.

"But we cannot escape from the fact that the Centre's resources will be stretched in the immediate future and an increasing share of the responsibility will have to be shouldered by the states," he remarked.

Singh also emphasised that special component plans for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes needed to be revitalised in the country.

Last month, the Prime Minister favoured ‘fair share’ for minorities in government and private jobs as he spoke at the meeting of the National Commission for Minorities.

PM’s priority: Muslim development

New Delhi: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh courted controversy in his address at the National Development Council on Saturday by saying that Muslims should have the first claim on the country's resources.

There's a split down the middle over the Sachar panel's report. Muslims are in such a miserable state that the Prime Minister wants top priority for minority development schemes. At the National Development Council meeting attended by most chief ministers, Manmohan Singh was emphatic.

“We will have to devise innovative plans to ensure that minorities, particularly the Muslim minority, are empowered to share equitably in the fruits of development. They must have the first claim on resources,” Singh said.

The BJP is insisting that some of the Sachar panel's recommendations are divisive. The party is opposed to quotas and benefits on religious grounds.

Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan said, “Poor is poor. Hunger and sickness don't discriminate by caste or creed.”

While Chattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh said, “The most deprived in society should benefit. It isn't advisable that people benefit based on their community.”

“Saying only Muslims have the right is dangerous for the unity of India. The country expects better from its Prime Minister,” Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi said.

The Government has already drawn up a plan to spend Rs 1800 crore on minority development in the eleventh five-year plan. But the BJP is not convinced. They are lashing out at what they insist is politics of appeasement.

What should have been a number-crunching exercise on the road map to development sounded like a debate on minority appeasement.

And while the PM managed to get his approach right where Muslims are concerned, what he didn't remember is that his road map is not viable as far as the constitution is concerned.

Not just White girls, Pak Muslim men sexually target Hindu and Sikh girls as well

2011-01-23T20:45:00.001+05:30

A day after UKs' former home secretary Jack Straw blamed some Pakistani Muslim men for targeting "vulnerable" White girls sexually, UK's Hindu and Sikh organizations also publicly accused Muslim groups of the same offence.

Straw, in an interview to the BBC recently, had said, "...there is a specific problem which involves Pakistani heritage men...who target vulnerable young white girls...they see these young women, white girls who are vulnerable, some of them in care ... who they think are easy meat."

Feeling emboldened by Straw's statement, UK's Hindu and Sikh organizations have also come in open and accused some Pakistani men of specifically targeting Hindu and Sikh girls. "This has been a serious concern for the last decade," said Hardeep Singh of Network of Sikh Organizations (NSO) while talking to TOI on Monday.

Sikhs and Hindus are annoyed that Straw had shown concern for White girls and not the Hindu and the Sikh teenage girls who have been coaxed by some Pakistani men for sex and religious conversion.

"Straw does other communities a disservice by suggesting that only white girls were targets of this predatory behaviour. We raised the issue of our girls with the previous government and the police on several occasions over the last decade. This phenomenon has been there because a minority of Islamic extremists view all 'non believers' as legitimate targets," said director NSO Inderjit Singh.

Targeted sexual offences and forced conversions of Hindu and Sikh girls was not a new phenomenon in the UK, said Ashish Joshio from Media Monitoring group.

"This has been going on for decades in the UK . Young Muslim men have been boasting about seducing the Kaffir (unbeliever) women. The Hindu and the Sikh communities must be commended for showing both restraint and maturity under such provocation," he added.

Hardeep said that in 2007, The Hindu Forum of Britain claimed that hundreds of Hindu and Sikh girls had been first romantically coaxed and later intimidated and converted by Muslim men.

Inderjit said," We are heartened by the swift condemnation of this behaviour by the Prime Minister David Cameron and his government. However, we urge the government to be firm in dealing with this criminal behaviour to protect the vulnerable girls, and, importantly protect the good name of the majority law abiding members of the Muslim community."

Swami Aseemanand - a Missionary Conspiracy

2011-01-23T20:05:00.002+05:30

Swami Aseemananda, who has been reported to have confessed to the Malegaon, Samjhauta Express, Ajmer and Mecca blasts, is one of the main contributor to the astonishing turnaround of Adivasis of Dang district towards Hindutva.

The first church was established in Dang district in 1904. Since then, conversions to Christianity had been progressing at an alarming rate. In the period 1991-2001, the Christian population grew by a massive 400 per cent!

The process of self-alienation and separatism which accompanies conversion had become visible in Dang. Makeshift, illegal churches had mushroomed in cowsheds and residential areas. These churches were unregistered and illegal. Proselytization activism was creating security problems for Hindus. It was in the midst of such hostile conditions that a Hindu swami descended upon Dang.

Swami Aseemananda, a Hindu sannyasi of the Akhil Bharatiya Vanavasi Kalyan Ashram. A Bengali by birth, Swamiji had spent several years in the Andaman and Nicobar islands. He was innovative and bold in arousing the latent feeling of Hindutva amongst the vanavasis.

Christian zealots made many murderous attempts on his life to stop this new trend. Deeply concerned by the Christianization of Dang, Swamiji resolved to stay in Dang and foil the designs of Christian missionaries. It was in August 1997 that this saffron-clad sannyasi set foot in Dang. All that he carried with him in this unfamiliar and hostile terrain were around 500 lockets of Hanuman and an unshakeable resolve.

He would knock at the door of each house and would ask the inmates one question, “Are you Hindu or Christian?” At the house of one such Hindu, Swamiji asked him, “May I spend the night in your house?” The Hindu gladly welcomed Swamiji. Swamiji kept his luggage, distributed the Hanuman lockets to the children and asked them to bring their Hindu friends in the evening for a Ram katha. That night, Dang witnessed the first ever Dharma sabha.

Sensing danger, Christian missionaries asked Swamiji, “What brings you here?”
The Swami posed them the same question.
We have come here to serve the people replied the Christian missionaries.
“I have come here to drive away those who have come here to serve” retorted the Swami.

That was the beginning of the Hindu awakening in the Dangs.

In 1998, 25, 000 Christians embraced the religion of their forefathers in just two months. In 2006, Shabari Kumbh, one of the biggest Hindutva gathering was conceived. Swamy Aseemananda played a key role in ideation and organization of the Kumbh.

Organizing a kumbh in a remote, heavily forested area was a nightmare from logistics point of view. It required steely resolve, meticulous planning and precision to make the programme a grand success. The 352 villages in Dang district had no electricity, or roads; the town of Ahwa is a good 35 km from the proposed site of the kumbh. There were no medical facilities or eateries in the vicinity.

Planning started atleast one and a half years ago.

A 250-200 hectare site was chosen for the kumbh. The support of state government to undertake construction of roads on a war footing was secured. Electrification of all the 352 villages of Dang was completed. A total of 22 check dams were built on the river that feeds the Pampa sarovar facilitating holy bath for participants.

A total of 20 lakh vanavasis reside in an area of 80 km around Dang. A survey of 5, 000 villages in Gujarat, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh was completed in the initial phase.

Around 30-35 lakh vanavasis were contacted in this massive exercise. An estimated six lakh Hindus attended the kumbh; of these, around two lakh stayed for all three days.

To arrange for their lodging, 40 townships each with a capacity of 5, 000 people were erected. Each township had 100 workers to look after various arrangements such as security, food, medical aid etc. A total of 4000 workers looked after the arrangements in the townships; an additional 2000 workers were involved in other arrangements.

About 388 vanavasi janajatis and 137 urban jatis which were facing missionary onslaught participated in the kumbh. Dharmacharyas from all over the country including 800 vanavasi sants attended the kumbh taking part in the deliberations. Around 20 lakh lockets with ishta-devata of the recipient; 5 lakh Hanuman Chalisa and 5 lakh Bhagwa Dhwaj were distributed.

Eminent historian displeased with the Ayodhya verdict

2010-10-05T02:56:00.012+05:30

After the Court judgment. the Sickulars start cribbing. If the judgment had been anti Hindu, we would be listening to crap about rule of law and similar SHITE.

Romilla Thapar - so called "Eminent Historian" - whose crappy History our children read, does not believe the archeological evidence.

Koenraad Elst's note on the same.

Eminent historian displeased with the Ayodhya verdict

Romila Tha par, most eminent among India's eminent historians, protests against the Court verdict acknowledging the historical evidence that the Babar mosque in Ayodhya had been built in forcible replacement of a Rama temple.

After two decades of living on top of the world, the eminent historians are brought down to earth. In 1858, the Virgin Mary appeared to young Bernadette Soubirous in Lourdes, France.

Before long, Lourdes became the most important pilgrimage site for Roman Catholics and other Mary worshippers. France prided itself on being a secular state, in some phases (esp. 1905-40) even aggressively secular, yet it acknowledged and protected Lourdes as a place of pilgrimage. Not many French officials actually believe in the apparition, but that is not the point. The believers are human beings, fellow citizens, and out of respect for them does the state respect and protect their pilgrimage.

For essentially the same reason, viz. the mere fact that the Ayodhya site is
well-established as a sacred site for Hindu pilgrimage, is reason enough to protect its functioning as a Hindu sacred site, complete with proper Hindu temple architecture. Ayodhya doesn’t have this status in any other religion (though Buddhism in the Jataka story cycle accepts Rama as an earlier incarnation of the Buddha), most certainly not in Islam.

So, the sensible and secular thing to do, even for those sceptical of every religious belief involved, is to leave the site to the Hindus. It helps to know, but is not strictly of any importance in the present, that Hindus kept going there even when a mosque stood there, even under Muslim rule. It is sufficient that the site has this sacred status today.

Secular PM Rajiv Gandhi had understood this, and from the court-ordered opening of the locks on the mosque-used-as-temple in 1986, he was manoeuvring towards an arrangement leaving the contentious site to the Hindus in exchange for some other goodies (starting with the ShahBano amendment and the Satanic Verses ban) for the Muslim leadership. Call it Congress culture or horse-trading, but it would have been practical and saved everyone a lot of trouble.

That is when a group of "eminent historians" started raising the stakes and turning this local communal deal into a clash of civilizations, a life-and-death matter on which the survival of the greatest treasure in the universe depended, viz. secularism. Secure in their hegemonic position, they didn't limit themselves to denying to the Hindus the right of rebuilding their demolished temple (say, "a medieval demolition doesn't justify a counter-demolition today"), but went so far as to deny the well-established fact that the mosque had been built in forcible replacement of a Rama temple.

Though intimidated, the political class didn't give in altogether but subtly pursued its plans. In late 1990, Chandra Shekhar's minority govenrment, supported and largely teleguided by opposition leader Rajiv Gandhi, invited the Vishva Hindu Parishad and the Babri Masjid Action Committe to mandate some selected scholars for a discussion of the historical evidence.

The politicians had clearly expected that the debate would bring out the evidence and silence the deniers for good. And that is what happened, or at least the first half. Decisive evidence was indeed presented, but it failed to discourage the deniers.

The VHP-employed team presented the already known documentary and archaeological evidence and dug up quite a few new documents confirming the temple demolition (including four that Muslim institutions had tried to conceal or tamper with).

The BMAC-employed team quit the discussions but brought out a booklet later, trumpeted as the final deathblow of the temple demolition “myth”. In fact, it turned out to be limited to an attempt at whittling down the evidential impact of a selected few of the pro-temple documents and holding forth on generalities of politicized history without proving how any of that could neutralize this particular evidence.

It contained not a single (even attempted) reference to a piece of actual evidence proving an alternative scenario or positively refuting the established scenario. I have given a full account earlier in my book Ayodhya, the Case against the Temple (2002): http://koenraadelst.bharatvani.org/books/acat/index.htm

As for the second half, that didn't work out as hoped for. No amount of evidence could silence the deniers. Though defeated on contents, the "eminent historians" became only more insistent in denying the evidence. They especially excelled in
blackening and slandering those few scholars who publicly stood by the evidence, not even sparing the towering archaeologist BB Lal.

Overnight, what had been the consensus in Muslim, Hindu and European sources, was turned into a "claim" by "Hindu extremists". They managed to intimidate a Dutch scholar who had earlier contributed even more elements to the already large pile of pro-temple evidence into backtracking. Most spectacularly, they managed to get the entire international media and the vast majority of India-related academics who ever voiced an opinion on the matter, into toeing their line.

These dimly-informed India-watchers too started intoning the no-temple mantra and slandering the dissidents, to their faces or behind their backs, as "liars", "BJP prostitutes", and what not.

Even in the world-renowned RISA collective, dozens chose to toe this party-line of disregarding the evidence and denying the obvious, viz. that the Babri Masjid (along with the Kaaba, the Mezquita, the Ummayad mosque, the Aya Sophia, the Quwwatu'l-Islam etc.) was one of the numerous ancient mosques built on, or with materials from, purposely desecrated or demolished non-Muslim places of worship.

Until the demolition by Hindu activists on 6 December 1992, Congress PM Narasimha Rao was clearly pursuing the same plan of a bloodless hand-over of the site to the Hindus in exchange for some concessions to the Muslims.

The activists who performed the demolition were angry with their own leaders for seemingly abandoning the Ayodhya campaign after winning the 1991 elections with it, but perhaps the Hindutva leaders had secretly been in touch with the PM or at any rate adjusted their policy to their inside perception of a deal planned by him.

After the demolition, Rao milked it for its anti-BJP nuisance value and gave out some pro-mosque signals; but a closer look at his actual policies shows that he stayed on course. His Government requested the Supreme Court to offer an opinion on the historical background of the Ayodhya dispute, knowing fully well from the outcome of the scholars’ debate that an informed opinion could only favour the Hindu claim.

In normal circumstances, it is not a court's business to pronounce on matters of history, but then whom else could you trust to give a fair opinion when the professional historians were being so brazenly partisan?

The Supreme Court sent the matter on, or back, to the Allahabad High Court, which at long last got serious about finding out the true story. It ordered a ground-penetrating radar search and the most thorough excavations. In this effort, carried out in 2003, the ASI employed a large number of Muslims in order to preempt the predictable allegation of being a Hindutva outfit.

The findings confirmed those of the excavations in the 1950s, 1970s and 1992: a very large Hindu religious building stood at the site before the Babri Masjid. The Allahabad High Court has now accepted these findings by India's apex archaeological body. But not everyone is willing to accept this.

In particular, the eminent historians are up in arms. In a guest column in The Hindu (2 Oct. 2010: “The verdict on Ayodhya, a historian’s opinion”, http://www.thehindu.com/opinion/op-ed/article807232.ece ), Prof. Romila Thapar claims that the ASI findings had been "disputed".

Oh well, it is true that some of her school had thought up the most hilariously contrived objections, which I held against the light in my booklet Ayodhya, the Finale: Science vs. Secularism in the Excavations Debate, http://koenraadelst.bharatvani.org/books/finale/index.html .

Thus, it was said that the presence of pillar-bases doesn’t imply that pillars were built on it, or that the findings of some animal bones in one layer precludes the existence of a temple, and more such hare-brained reasoning.

The emerging picture was clear enough: there is no such thing as a refutation of the overwhelming ASI evidence, just as there is no refutation of the archaeological and documentary evidence presented earlier.

Today, I feel sorry for the eminent historians. They have identified very publicly with the denial of the Ayodhya evidence. While politically expedient, and while going unchallenged in the academically most consequential forums for twenty years, that position has now been officially declared false. It suddenly dawns on them that they have tied their names to an enterprise unlikely to earn them glory in the long run.

We may expect frantic attempts to intimidate the Supreme Court into annulling the Allahabad verdict, and possibly it will succeed. But it is unlikely that future generations, unburdened with the presently prevailing power equation that made this history denial profitable, will play along and keep on disregarding the massive body of historical evidence.

With the Ayodhya verdict, the eminent historians are catching a glimpse of what they will look like when they stand before Allah’s throne on Judgment Day.

Lottery mafia paid Singhvi’s hotel bills

2010-10-05T02:29:00.003+05:30

Abhishek Manu Singhavi, the CON-gress spokesperson appears in Kerala to defend the Lottery Mafia. The hotel bills are paid by the Mafia.

The same Lottery Mafia that is run by a CPI (M) head honcho.

And against which CON-gress is protesting in Kerala.

It is worthy of being a WTF moment record holder but for Rahul Baba's utterances.

Jai Ho !!!

Lottery mafia paid Singhvi’s hotel bills
03/10/2010 13:49:49 VR Jayaraj | Kerala - Daily Pioneer

The company of ‘lottery king’ Santiago Martin, described as the don of South India’s lotteries cartel, had paid the hotel bills incurred by Congress’s national spokesman Abhishek Manu Singhvi when he stayed in Kochi last week to argue a lotteries case in the Kerala High Court, reports say.

One A Shajahan, booked into Hotel Taj Malabar of Kochi in the address of Martin-owned TV channel SS Music in Chennai, had paid the bills Singhvi had incurred during his stay at the same hotel, a Malayalam TV channel reported. Singhvi’s appearance as counsel of the lottery mafia has become a huge political embarrassment for the State Congress in the middle of the civic polls campaign.

At the same time, the lotteries directorate of Bhutan has reportedly denied Singhvi’s earlier claim that he had argued in the lotteries case not for the lottery mafia but for the Royal Government of Bhutan. Reports from Thimphu quoting the lotteries director there said his department had not engaged any lawyer to argue any case in Kerala.

However, Delhi reports on Sunday quoted Singhvi as reiterating that he had represented the Bhutan Government in the Kerala High Court. He said that his lawyer fee was paid by the Bhutan Government but feigned ignorance as to who had paid the hotel bills.

Talking to the media in Kochi last Wednesday, Singhvi had said, “I am representing in the court the Royal Government of Bhutan, a sovereign country.” He had repeated the same statement a day later saying, “Why do you want me to repeat this? I am engaged by the Government of Bhutan.”

He later changed his line of argument before the media saying he was in Kochi to defend the Central rules against an Ordinance promulgated by the Kerala Government to control the illegal lottery operators. The irony is that the main architect of the Ordinance, which Singhvi termed as un-Constitutional, was the Congress of Kerala.

Despite strong protests from State Congress leaders and black-flag demonstrations by the Youth Congress, Singhvi had appeared in the High Court to argue against the Ordinance promulgated to control illegal lotteries operators, who according to the Congress, were plundering an annual average of Rs 16,000 crore of poor man’s money from the State.

Singhvi’s appearance in the court for the lottery mafia caused the accusations against the CPI(M) that they were the protectors of the illegal operators to boomerang on the State Congress. The CPI(M) was quick to cash in on the situation saying Singhvi had appeared for the lottery mafia on instructions from top AICC leadership which, along with the UPA Government, was its protector.

In the context of the new revelations, State Congress president Ramesh Chennithala and party MLA VD Satheesan, who had brought up the lotteries scam as a campaign issue against the CPI(M), said they would ask the high command to take stringent action against Singhvi.

Chennithala also reiterated his earlier accusation that Singhvi was the victim of a conspiracy hatched by State Finance Minister Thomas Isaac, a CPI(M) central committee member, and the lottery mafia. He alleged that they had searched out Singhvi to argue the case for lottery mafia with political intentions.

“A very serious charge has been leveled against Kerala’s Finance Minister,” Isaac pointed out adding, “It is time for Singhvi to reveal who had engaged him in this case.” Isaac said there was no surprise that the lottery mafia had paid Singhvi’s bills. P Chidambaram and his wife Nalini had earlier appeared as counsels for them, he added.

एक छोटे से प्रश्न का जवाब

2010-10-05T00:50:00.004+05:30

अयोध्या में राम जन्म स्थान पर मंदिर बनाये जाने के विरोधियों इस तरह के जुमले कसकर अयोध्या में राम जन्मस्थान पर मंदिर बनाये जाने का विरोध कर रहे हैं, उन्हैं भी एक छोटे से प्रश्न का जवाब देना ही चाहिये कि बिना स्वाभिमान और आत्मगौरव जागृति के यह आर्थिक तरक्की कितने दिन टिक पायेगी ?

क्या हम ऐसा भारत चाहते हैं जो आक्रांताओं के स्मारकों को संरक्षण प्रदान करे और भारत को स्वतंत्र देखने की चाह में हंसते हंसते फांसी पर झूल जाने वाले भगतसिंह को आतंकवादी कहे।

जो लोग अयोध्या में राम मंदिर के निर्माण का विरोध कर रहे हैं, उन्हैं इस बात को तो समझना ही होगा कि भारत में राम के लिए मंदिर बनाने वाले लोगों और जगहों की कोई कमी नहीं है, लेकिन यह बात देश की रीति नीति और अंतरात्मा की है।

प्रश्न यह भी है कि हम हमारी संस्कृति, सभ्यता और विरासत को नष्ट करने वाले हमलावरों को नकारने की हिम्मत रखते हैं या नहीं ?

क्यों नहीं सारे राजनेता मिलकर इस सच्चाई को सामने रखते कि मात्र 300 मुगलों ने तोप और गाय को आगे रखकर भारत की साँस्कृतिक चेतना को कुचलने का अपराध किया था, आज जो पाकिस्तान और बंगलादेश सहित भारत में मुस्लिम दिखाई पड़ते हैं वे इन हमलावरों के आने से पहले इसी आर्यावर्त की महान संतानों के वंशज हैं।

क्यों नहीं पूरे देश को यह बताया जाता कि जब जिन्ना के सामने घुटने टेकते हुए हमने भारत के विभाजन को स्वीकार किया था और मुस्लिमों के लिए पाकिस्तान का गठन किया था, तो भारत में रहने वाले मुस्लिमों ने पंडों, भाटों, रावों और अन्य वंशलेखकों के पास जाकर अपनी जडें खोजने और अपने गौत्र निकालने के प्रयास शुरू कर दिये थे।

आखिर पूरे देश को यह क्यों नहीं बताया जाता कि भारत में उस समय रहने वाला एक एक मुसलमान चीख चीख कर कह रहा था कि हम हिन्दुओं की संतान हैं और हमारी उपासना पद्धति इस्लामिक है।

पूरे विश्व में भारत ही तो है जो सभी उपासना पद्धतियों को फलने फूलने का अवसर प्रदान करता है।

जहां शैव, शाक्त, जैन, बुद्ध, सिख, पारसी समुदाय के लोग अपनी विभिन्न उपासना पद्धतियों के साथ इस देश में स्वाभिमान के साथ रह सकते हैं तो फिर वे कौन लोग थे जिन्होंने इस उपासना पद्धति को मजहब में बदलने का अपराध किया ?

आखिर देश को यह जानने का अधिकार तो है कि 1947 में मृत हो चुकी मुस्लिम लीग इस देश में किन राजनेताओं की सत्ता पिपासा के कारण पुन: उठ खड़ी हुई ?

क्या भारत में उन हमलावरों के नाम पर दिल्ली में बड़ी बड़ी सड़के नहीं हैं ?

भारत में जिलों के नाम उन पर नहीं हैं ?

उन हमलावरों की बर्बरता का सजीव चित्रण करती हुई मस्जिदें भारत की सांझी विरासत कैसे हो सकती हैं ?

प्रश्न यह है क्या कोई शासक अपनी ही प्रजा पर इस तरह के जुल्म करता है?

इस तरह के जुल्म तो हमलावर शासक करते हैं, जिनकी इच्छा होती है कि आम जनता उनकी बर्बता से घबराकर उनकी शरणागति स्वीकार कर ले और अपनी जान बचाने के लिए उन्हीं के पंथ और मजहब को स्वीकार कर ले।

तो क्या यह माना जाए कि आजाद भारत की सरकारें अपनी संतानों को यह बताना चाहती हैं कि जिन हमलावरों ने हमारी अस्मिता के साथ खिलवाड़ किया, हमारे पूर्वजों को लूटा, उनकी हत्याएं कर दीं, हम उन हमलावरों को हमारी विरासत के नाम पर उदारमना होकर स्वीकार करें।

हमारी संताने उन हमलावरों को कैसे संरक्षण दे सकती हैं ?

राजनेताओं की जरूरत वोट है, और उसके लिए वे किसी भी हद तक जा सकते हैं, हमलावरों को पूज भी सकते हैं।

लेकिन यह तय भारत की जनता को करना है कि वह इन हमलावरों को अपनी ‘विरासत’ माने या नहीं।

बात सिर्फ अयोध्या में राम मंदिर बनाने की जिद की नहीं है, बात यह है कि हम आजादी के बाद से लेकर आज तक अपने देश की दशा और दिशा तय नहीं कर पाये।

तो जो काम हमारे राजनेता नहीं कर पाये उसे ‘रामजी’ को ही पूरा करना पडेगा।

The High Court's judgement regarding Ayodhya ji

2010-09-30T21:40:00.000+05:30

The Court's verdict in the Ayodhya is an opportunity for the Muslims and Professional Hindu Haters (Leftists / Liberals / Secular / Congress etc.) to create an environment of respect and reconciliation towards the Hindu community.

That there was a temple that Babar destroyed is proven beyond doubt. So why not say that entire India will join hands in creating a भव्य temple of Lord Ram.

Why this insistence on having a Mosque next door announcing 5 times that there is no God except Allah. And butchering animals on Eid.

In Saudi Arabia, if a non Muslim enters Mecca / Medina, he will get beheaded.

So, why should our holy land be desecrated ?

Mosque at Shree Ram Janma Bhoomi

2010-09-29T21:49:00.002+05:30

There was a posting on a Social Media Site.

There is no need for temples or churches or mosques, no need for complicated philosophy. God is everywhere! Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness and love. So whatever be the Ayodhya verdict just Chill my friends

I liked the response:

Removing a symbol of slavery should be welcomed by all. Why is vote bank politics being played on this.

Why should anyone who believes in our Nation, oppose the proposal of shifting the "mosque" commemorating a fanatic, blood thirsty marauder called Babar to outside Ayodhya ji - an area that is sacred to millions of people.

For the English speaking elite, "Ram" is a mythological character. For the millions who did not study in convents, "Lord Ram" is a matter of belief and veneration - not logic.

It is well known that more than 30, 000 temples were destroyed and mosques built in their place - to humiliate and rub the salt in the wounds of the defeated Hindus.

We have asked for just 3 temples - in Ayodhya ji - Lord Ram's temple, in Mathura ji - Lord Krishna's birthplace and Lord Shiv in Kashi ji (Varanasi).

If you have ever visited any of these you will realize that the temples were destroyed precisely to enslave our minds, to demonstrate the victory of Islam over Hindus.

After 1947, Muslims who chose to stay in India - instead of going to Pakistan, did with an understanding of respecting Hindu opinion. They should be progressive in correcting the wrongs committed by their forefathers and creating a strong relationship of respect and reconciliation with the majority community.

It is in line with what the German govt. did for Jews and similar to the Catholic Church's apology for the Inquisitions and ethnic cleansing of the Incas, Aztecs, and other indigenous people.

Only people who believe that these "mosques" - essentially symbols of slavery should be allowed to stay - are those who do not believe in a life of respect and dignity for the Hindus in their own country.

Christian Persecution in India: The Real Story

We have heard about what the Christians in India have called the persecutions against them. However, there is much more to this story than we often hear, and there are certainly two sides to it.

The following is a first-hand investigative article that relates what has really been going on with the Christians in India, much of which has been kept from the public. This shows the duplicity in the Christian activities in India.

This article, by Francois Gautier, is reprinted from the "Annual Research Journal, 2001" published by the Institute for Rewriting Indian [and World] History.

WILL HINDUISM SURVIVE THE PRESENT CHRISTIAN OFFENSIVE?
By Francois Gautier

When Prime Minister Vajpayee was in the US in September (2000) , the National Association of Asian Christians in the US (whom nobody had heard about before), paid $ 50,000 to the New York Times to publish "an Open Letter to the Honorable Atal Bihari Vajpayee, prime minister of India."

While "warmly welcoming the PM," The NAAC expressed deep concern about the "persecution" of Christians in India by "extremist" (meaning Hindu) groups mentioning as examples "the priest, missionaries and church workers who have been murdered," the nuns "raped," and the potential enacting of conversion laws, which would make "genuine" conversions illegal. The letter concluded by saying "that Christians in India today live in fear."

The whole affair was an embarrassment (as it was intended to be) to Mr. Vajpayee and the Indian delegation, which had come to prod American businessmen to invest in India, a peaceful, pro-Western and democratic country.

I am born a Christian and I have had a strong Catholic education. I do believe that Christ was an incarnation of Pure Love and that His Presence still radiates in the world. I also believe there are human beings who sincerely try to incarnate the ideals of Jesus and that you can find today in India a few missionaries (such as Father Ceyrac, a French Jesuit, who works mostly with lepers in Tamil Nadu) who are incarnations of that Love, tending tirelessly to people, without trying to convert them.

But I have also lived for more than 30 years in India, I am married to an Indian, I have travelled the length and breadth of this country and I have evolved a love and an understanding of India, which few other foreign correspondents have because they are never posted long enough to start getting a real feeling of this vast and often baffling country (nobody can claim to fully understand India). And this is what I have to say about the "persecution" of Christians in India.

Firstly, it is necessary to bring about a little bit of a historical flashback, which very few foreign correspondents (and unfortunately also Indian journalists) care to do, which would make for a more balanced view of the problem.

If ever there was persecution, it was of the Hindus at the hands of Christians, who were actually welcomed in this country, as they have been welcomed in no other place on this planet.

Indeed, the first Christian community of the world, that of the Syrian Christians, was established in Kerala in the first century. They were able to live in peace and practice their religion freely, even imbibing some of the local Hindu customs, thereby breaking the Syrian Church in two.

When Vasco de Gama landed in Kerala in 1498, he was generously received by the Zamorin, the Hindu king of Calicut, who granted him the right to establish warehouses for commerce.

But once again, Hindu tolerance was exploited and the Portuguese wanted more and more.

In 1510, Alfonso de Albuquerque seized Goa, where he started a reign of terror, burning "heretics," crucifying Brahmins, using false theories to forcibly convert the lower castes, razing temples to build churches upon them and encouraging his soldiers to take Indian mistresses.

Indeed, the Portuguese perpetrated here some of the worst atrocities ever committed in Asia by Christianity upon another religion. Ultimately, the Portuguese had to be kicked out of India, when all other colonisers had already left.

British missionaries in India were always supporters of colonialism. They encouraged it and their whole structure was based on "the good Western civilized world being brought to the Pagans."

Because, in the words of Claudius Buchanan, a chaplain attached to the East India Company, "Neither truth, nor honesty, honour, gratitude, nor charity, is to be found in the breast of a Hindoo!"

What a comment about a nation that gave the world the Vedas at a time when Europeans were still grappling in their caves!

And it is in this way that the British allowed entire chunks of territories in the East, where lived tribals, whose poverty and simplicity made them easy prey to be converted to Christianity. By doing so, the Christian missionaries cut a people from their roots and tradition, made them look westwards towards a culture and a way of life which was not theirs.

And the result is there today for everyone to see: it is in these eastern states, some of which are 90 per cent Christian, that one finds the biggest drug problems (and crime) in India. It should also be said that many of the eastern separatist movements have been covertly encouraged by Christian missionaries on the ground that "tribals were there before the 'Aryan Hindus' invaded India and imposed Hinduism upon them."

The trouble is that the latest archaeological and linguistic discoveries point to the fact that there NEVER was an Aryan invasion of India --it just was an invention of the British and the missionaries to serve their purpose. Aryanism is a synonym of Vedic culture.

Secondly, Christianity has always striven on the myth of persecution, which in turn bred "martyrs" and saints, indispensable to the propagation of Christianity. But it is little known, for instance, that the first "saints" of Christianity, "martyred" in Rome, a highly refined civilization which had evolved a remarkable system of gods and goddesses, derived from Hindu mythology via the Greeks, were actually killed (a normal practice in those days) while bullying peaceful Romans to embrace the "true" religion, in the same way that later Christian missionaries will browbeat "heathen" Hindus, adoring many gods into believing that Jesus was the only "true" god.

Now to come to the recent cases of persecution of Christians in India at the hands of Hindu groups.

I have personally investigated quite a few, amongst them the rape of the four nuns in Jhabua, Madhya Pradesh, nearly two years ago. This rape is still quoted as an example of the "atrocities" committed by Hindus on Christians.

Yet, when I interviewed the four innocent nuns, they themselves admitted, along with George Anatil, the bishop of Indore, that it had nothing to do with religion: It was the doing of a gang of Bhil tribals, known to perpetrate this kind of hateful acts on their own women.

Today, the Indian press, the Christian hierarchy and the politicians, continue to include the Jhabua rape in the list of atrocities against Christians.

Or take the burning of churches in Andhra Pradesh a few months ago, which was supposed to have been committed by the "fanatic" RSS. It was proved later that it was actually the handiwork of Indian Muslims, at the behest of the ISI to foment hatred between Christians and Hindus. Yet the Indian press, which went berserk at the time of the burnings, mostly kept quiet when the true nature of the perpetrators was revealed.

Finally, even if Dara Singh does belong to the Bajrang Dal, it is doubtful if the hundred other accused do. What is more probable, is that like in many other "backward" places, it is a case of converted tribals versus non-converted tribals, of pent-up jealousies, of old village-feuds and land disputes.

It is also an outcome of what -- it should be said -- are the aggressive methods of the Pentecost and Seventh Day Adventist missionaries, known for their muscular ways of conversion.

Thirdly, conversions in India by Christian missionaries of low caste Hindus and tribals are sometimes nothing short of fraudulent and shameful acts. American missionaries are investing huge amounts of money in India, which come from donation-drives in the United States where gullible Americans think the dollars they are giving go towards uplifting "poor and uneducated" Indians.

It is common in Kerala, for instance, particularly in the poor coastal districts, to have "miracle boxes" put in local churches. The gullible villager writes out a paper mentioning his wish such as a fishing boat, a loan for a pucca (ie brick) house, fees for the son's schooling. And lo, a few weeks later the miracle happens! And of course the whole family converts, making others in the village follow suit.

American missionaries (and their government) would like us to believe that democracy includes the freedom to convert by any means. But France for example, a traditionally Christian country, has a minister who is in charge of hunting down "sects." And by sects, it is meant anything that does not fall within the recognized family of Christianity -- even the Church of Scientology, favoured by some Hollywood stars such as Tom Cruise or John Travolta, is ruthlessly hounded.

And look at what the Americans did to the Osho movement in Arizona, or how innocent children and women were burnt down by the FBI (with the assistance of the US army) at Waco, Texas, because they belonged to a dangerous sect.

Did you know that Christianity is dying in the West? Not only is church attendance falling dramatically because spirituality has deserted it, but less and less youth accept the vocation to become priests or nuns. And as a result, say in the rural parts of France, you will find only one priest for six or seven villages, whereas till the late seventies, the smallest hamlet had its own parish priest.

And where is Christianity finding new priests today? In the Third World, of course! And India, because of the innate impulsion of its people towards god, is a very fertile recruiting ground for the Church, particularly in Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Hence the huge attention that India is getting from the United States, Australia, or England and the massive conversion drive going on today.

It is sad that Indians, once converted, specially the priests and nuns, tend to turn against their own country and help in the conversion drive. There are very few "White" missionaries left in India and most of the conversions are done today by Indian priests. Last month, during the bishop's conference in Bangalore, it was restated by bishops and priests from all over India that conversion is the FIRST priority of the Church here.

But are the priests and bishops aware that they would never find in any Western country the same freedom to convert that they take for granted in India? Do they know that in China they would be expelled, if not put into jail? Do they realize that they have been honoured guests in this country for nearly two thousand years and that they are betraying those that gave them peace and freedom?

Hinduism, the religion of tolerance, and spirituality of this new millennium, has survived the unspeakable barbarism of wave after wave of Muslim invasions, the insidious onslaught of Western colonialism which has killed the spirit of so many Third World countries, and the soul-stifling assault of Nehruvianism.

But will it survive the present Christian offensive? Many Hindu religious leaders feel Christianity is a real threat today, as in numerous ways it is similar to Hinduism, from which Christ borrowed so many concepts. (See Sri Sri Ravi Shankar's book: "Hinduism and Christianity")

It is thus necessary that Indians themselves become more aware of the danger their culture and unique civilization is facing at the hands of missionaries sponsored by foreign money. It is also necessary that they stop listening to the Marxist-influenced English newspapers' defense of the right of Christian missionaries to convert innocent Hindus.

Conversion belongs to the times of colonialism. We have entered the era of Unity, of coming together, of tolerance and accepting each other as we are, not of converting in the name of one elusive "true" god. When Christianity accepts the right of other people to follow their own beliefs and creeds, then only will Jesus Christ's spirit truly radiate in the world.

Being Brave - बहादुरी क्या है ?

2010-09-21T20:58:00.000+05:30

वीरता - बहादुरी क्या होती है

मैं सोचता हूँ की जब गुरु तेग बहादुर के शिष्य भाई मतिदास और भाई सतिदास (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bhai_Mati_Das ) को इस्लाम नहीं कबूलने के लिए आरे से काटा गया और खौलते हुए तेल में उबाल दिया गया, पर वे लोग शांत चित्त से जपजी का पाठ करते रहे।

अन्य हिन्दुओं (मैं सिख / हिंदू भेद नहीं करता) को चरखी चढा दिया गया। कुछ को रुई में लपेट कर आग लगा दी।

पर फिर भी बहुत कम लोग मुसलमान बने। भारत के अलावा कोई अन्य देश नहीं है जहाँ मुसलामानों ने इतने अत्याचार, इतने समय तक किए, और फिर भी पूरा देश मुसलमान नहीं बना।

गोमान्तक (Goa) में Christian Missionaries ने माता पिता को बाँध कर उनके सामने उनके बच्चों के अंग काट काट कर उनकी हत्या की। बच्चे को उल्टा लटका के बीच से शरीर को फाड़ दिया, कितना पीड़ा दायक रहा होगा।

मैं सोचता हूँ, कि कैसे वे लोग शरीर की पीड़ा से ऊपर उठ सके और धर्म नहीं छोड़ा ? कैसे कर पाए वे लोग ?

मुझे व्यक्तिगत रूप से अनुभव है Third Degree Burns का, बहुत जलता है। मैं उस समय भी अस्पताल जाते हुए यही सोच रहा था की मैं कितनी थोडी सी पीड़ा में विचलित हो रहा हूँ , हमारे पुरखों ने क्या क्या नहीं झेला तो आज हम हैं।

मुझे जब भी कोई चोट लगती है, मैं यही सोचता हूँ, की कैसे कोई रोम रोम से यह विश्वास कर पाते हैं की शरीर तो नश्वर है, क्षय तो होगा ही, और शरीर से ऊपर उठ पाते हैं।

एक संकेत मिलता है श्री रामचरितमानस में, बाल काण्ड में। श्री सीता जी स्वयंवर प्रसंग है, सभी राजा असफल हो कर, श्री हीन हो कर बैठ चुके हैं। राजा जनक दुखी हैं,

"वीर विहीन महि मैं जानी" (इस धरती पर अब वीर नहीं हैं, ऐसा वे कहते हैं )

ऐसे में, गुरु विश्वामित्र का आदेश होता है :

"उठो राम भंजहु भव चाप,
मेटहु तात जनक परिताप "

हे राम उठो और धनुष (चाप) को तोड़ दो (भंजन कर दो), और पुत्र (तात) राजा जनक का दुःख मिटा दो

प्रभु श्री राम, उठ कर, गुरूजी से आशीर्वाद लेते हैं, और धनुष की और चलते हैं

"हर्ष विषाद न कछु उर आवा "

(प्रभु श्री राम के हृदय में न तो हर्ष है, न विषाद, अपने दायित्व का निर्वाहन कर रहे हैं)

पर दायित्व का निर्वाहन है, बिना किसी बोझ के, यह कैसे होता है ??

सुधि पाठक बंधू कृपया अपने विचार रखें

Off Course, Sonia ji and Rahul ji and Dr. Singh were clueless about Kalmadi and corruption. And this rotten Kalmadi - Look na, flaunting his super closeness to the Gandhi family.

And off course, Sonia ji has sacrificed the PM's chair, no less, you think she is going to get rich from the CWG corruption ??

NEW DELHI: In a major embarrassment for organisers of the Commonwealth Games, an under-construction foot overbridge today collapsed outside the Jawaharlal Nehru stadium, the main venue of the Commonwealth Games, injuring 23 labourers.

Five of the injured are seriously injured in the incident that occurred at 3.10pm in Lodhi Road area of South Delhi, police said.

The 95-metre long bridge was being built along with another overbridge at the cost of Rs 10.5 crore by Chandigarh-based company PNR Infra, Delhi government sources said.

Public Works Department of Delhi government, which had given the contract to PNR Infra for constructing the overbridge as ordered an inquiry into the incident.

The bridge, whose construction was to be completed soon, was to connect the parking lot of the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium where the opening and closing functions of Commonwealth Games would be held.

Taiwanese Tourists Shot in New Delhi

2010-09-20T11:46:00.002+05:30

"Misguided" followers of the "Religion of Peace" shoot two foreign tourists at Jama Masjid. A pressure cooker bomb explodes.

P Chidambaram knows without investigations that this is not terrorist attack. Perhaps, just a little game between young "Jehadis".

But Muslims must have first right over national resources, including "Justice" - ...as decreed by Dr. MM Singh.

So, Chiddu will never utter "Islamic Terrorism" but rant and rave about "Saffron Terrorism".

Jai Ho !!!

Taiwanese Tourists Shot in New Delhi

By JIM YARDLEY and HARI KUMAR

Image from the NY Times of pressure cooker bomb in the car.
NEW DELHI — Two armed assailants riding a motorcycle opened fire on a tourist bus parked outside of New Delhi’s most famous mosque on Sunday, in an attack that comes as the city prepares to host the Commonwealth Games in two weeks.
Two Taiwanese tourists were wounded in the shooting, which occurred outside the Jama Masjid mosque at 11:30 a.m., the police said. The two attackers indiscriminately fired seven or eight rounds into the bus before escaping on their motorcycle as a nearby police officer tried to chase. A citywide manhunt was under way for the two attackers.
“It is difficult to say what the motive is,” Karnail Singh, the New Delhi joint police commissioner, told reporters.
The target as well as the timing immediately raised questions about whether the shooting was a deliberate terrorist attack. Security is a paramount concern for the Games, which open Oct. 3 and are expected to bring thousands of athletes and spectators to New Delhi for the sports competition among nations of the former British empire.
Various media organizations published a letter in Hindi purporting to be from the Indian Mujahedeen and claiming responsibility for the attack. The Indian government considers the group to be a terrorist organization. It is unclear which news organizations received the original communication, which also threatened the Games, and by late evening there were questions and skepticism about what connection the letter might have to the actual attack.
On Sunday, Sheila Dikshit, the chief minister of New Delhi, sought to calm fears about the attack, urging the public not to panic and repeating that the police had initiated a major investigation into the shooting. “It is not correct to write or assume that this is a terror attack,” Ms. Dikshit said on NDTV, a 24-hour news channel in New Delhi.
Commonwealth Games organizers said in a statement on Sunday that the shooting would have “no impact” on the Games. Officials “have made elaborate arrangements to provide the Commonwealth Games athletes and officials a safe and secure environment,” it said.
The two injured Taiwanese tourists were undergoing surgery in a New Delhi hospital on Sunday. Dr. Amit Banerjee, of Lok Narayan Jay Prakash Hospital, said that the tourists had suffered abdominal injuries.
The Jama Masjid is one of India’s largest mosques and is located in the old part of the city, across from the historic Red Fort. Built in the 17th century, the mosque attracts thousands of Muslims for Friday Prayer. In 2006, it was attacked by two low-intensity blasts that injured more than a dozen people. The mosque itself was not damaged.

Congress sells its way to Rs 600 cr corpus

Congress sells its way to Rs 600 cr corpus

The Indian National Congress has taken the next step in politics by moving away from the old era of donations to fund its activities to one of selling coupons to build up a corpus – the largest one among parties in India.

Congress sold coupons worth Rs 600 crore to generate funds during 2007-09 while most of the other political parties were dependent on voluntary donations for fund raising.

The oldest political party, Congress, generated Rs 598.4 crore during 2007-08 and 2008-09 through the sale of coupons while it received donations of Rs 72 crore. The party also generated Rs 38 crore as interest during the period, reveal income tax returns filed by the party.

Funds for Bharatiya Janta Party were mainly sourced from voluntary donations during the period which amounted to Rs 297.7 crore while interest of Rs 21.29 crore and "Ajiwan Sahyog Nidhi" were the other sources.

Public does not support Congress funding by donations. But Gandhi-Maino family converts a small part of its thousands of crores of black money by "selling coupons" and showing as receipts. It would be very interesting indeed, if the Income Tax people were to ask for a list of "purchasers of coupons".

Shantiniketan in a Barricade

2010-09-17T09:06:00.000+05:30

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high".
Thus spake Gurudev Rabindra Nath Tagore.

So, in a fitting homage, "Yuvaraj" Raul Vinci, the 40 year old Youth leader, goes to Shanti Niketan - the abode of learning, and politicizes the academic environment.

And students get to shake hands via a wire fence - like on Indo-Pak border - apparently the most effective protection against sniper and bomb attacks.

Unless off course the intention is to remind about the lowly status of "mere students" vs. Yuvaraj.

Jai Ho !!!

15 सितम्बर- भारत रत्न मोक्षगुंडम विश्वेश्वरैया का जन्म दिन - अभियंता दिवस (इन्जिनीर्स डे)

यह लेख साभार, यहाँ से लिया गया है, इसके लेखक हैं, श्री विनोद शर्मा

भारत रत्न मोक्षगुंडम विश्वेश्वरैया

सर मोक्षगुंडम विश्वेश्वरैया ( 15 सितम्बर 1860 - 14 अप्रैल 1962) (अंग्रेजी में वर्तनी Visvesvaraya, Visweswaraiah, Vishweshwariah; कन्नड में: ಶ್ರೀ ಮೋಕ್ಷಗುಂಡಂ ವಿಶ್ವೇಶ್ವರಯ್ಯ) भारत के महान अभियन्ता एवं राजनयिक थे। उन्हें सन १९५५ में भारत के सर्वोच्च सम्मान भारत रत्न से विभूषित किया गया था। भारत में उनका जन्म दिन अभियन्ता दिवस के रूप में मनाया जाता है।

जीवनी
विश्वेश्वरैया का जन्म मैसूर (कर्नाटक) के कोलार जिले के चिक्काबल्लापुर तालुक में 15 सितंबर 1860 को हुआ था। उनके पिता का नाम श्रीनिवास शास्त्री तथा माता का नाम वेंकाचम्मा था। पिता संस्कृत के विद्वान थे। विश्वेश्वरैया ने प्रारंभिक शिक्षा जन्म स्थान से ही पूरी की। आगे की पढ़ाई के लिए उन्होंने बंगलूर के सेंट्रल कॉलेज में दाखिला लिया। लेकिन यहां उनके पास धन का अभाव था। अत: उन्हें टयूशन करना पड़ा। विश्वेश्वरैया ने 1881 में बीए की परीक्षा में अव्वल स्थान प्राप्त किया। इसके बाद मैसूर सरकार की मदद से इंजीनियरिंग की पढ़ाई के लिए पूना के साइंस कॉलेज में दाखिला लिया। 1883 की एलसीई व एफसीई (वर्तमान समय की बीई उपाधि) की परीक्षा में प्रथम स्थान प्राप्त करके अपनी योग्यता का परिचय दिया। इसी उपलब्धि के चलते महाराष्ट्र सरकार ने इन्हें नासिक में सहायक इंजीनियर के पद पर नियुक्त किया।

एक बार कुछ भारतीयों को अमेरिका में कुछ फैक्टरियों की कार्यप्रणाली देखने के लिए भेजा गया। फैक्टरी के एक ऑफीसर ने एक विशेष मशीन की तरफ इशारा करते हुए कहा, "अगर आप इस मशीन के बारे में जानना चाहते हैं, तो आपको इसे 75 फुट ऊंची सीढ़ी पर चढ़कर देखना होगा"। भारतीयों का प्रतिनिधित्व कर रहे सबसे उम्रदराज व्यक्ति ने कहा, "ठीक है, हम अभी चढ़ते हैं"। यह कहकर वह व्यक्ति तेजी से सीढ़ी पर चढ़ने के लिए आगे बढ़ा। ज्यादातर लोग सीढ़ी की ऊंचाई से डर कर पीछे हट गए तथा कुछ उस व्यक्ति के साथ हो लिए। शीघ्र ही मशीन का निरीक्षण करने के बाद वह शख्स नीचे उतर आया। केवल तीन अन्य लोगों ने ही उस कार्य को अंजाम दिया। यह व्यक्ति कोई और नहीं बल्कि डॉ. एम.विश्वेश्वरैया थे जो कि सर एमवी के नाम से भी विख्यात थे।

दक्षिण भारत के मैसूर, कर्र्नाटक को एक विकसित एवं समृद्धशाली क्षेत्र बनाने में एमवी का अभूतपूर्व योगदान है। तकरीबन 55 वर्ष पहले जब देश स्वंतत्र नहीं था, तब कृष्णराजसागर बांध, भद्रावती आयरन एंड स्टील व‌र्क्स, मैसूर संदल ऑयल एंड सोप फैक्टरी, मैसूर विश्वविद्यालय, बैंक ऑफ मैसूर समेत अन्य कई महान उपलब्धियां एमवी ने कड़े प्रयास से ही संभव हो पाई। इसीलिए इन्हें कर्नाटक का भगीरथ भी कहते हैं। जब वह केवल 32 वर्ष के थे, उन्होंने सिंधु नदी से सुक्कुर कस्बे को पानी की पूर्ति भेजने का प्लान तैयार किया जो सभी इंजीनियरों को पसंद आया। सरकार ने सिंचाई व्यवस्था को दुरुस्त करने के उपायों को ढूंढने के लिए समिति बनाई। इसके लिए एमवी ने एक नए ब्लॉक सिस्टम को ईजाद किया। उन्होंने स्टील के दरवाजे बनाए जो कि बांध से पानी के बहाव को रोकने में मदद करता था। उनके इस सिस्टम की प्रशंसा ब्रिटिश अधिकारियों ने मुक्तकंठ से की। आज यह प्रणाली पूरे विश्व में प्रयोग में लाई जा रही है। विश्वेश्वरैया ने मूसा व इसा नामक दो नदियों के पानी को बांधने के लिए भी प्लान तैयार किए। इसके बाद उन्हें मैसूर का चीफ इंजीनियर नियुक्त किया गया।

उस वक्तराज्य की हालत काफी बदतर थी। विश्वेश्वरैया लोगों की आधारभूत समस्याओं जैसे अशिक्षा, गरीबी, बेरोजगारी, बीमारी आदि को लेकर भी चिंतित थे। फैक्टरियों का अभाव, सिंचाई के लिए वर्षा जल पर निर्भरता तथा खेती के पारंपरिक साधनों के प्रयोग के कारण समस्याएं जस की तस थीं। इन समस्याओं के समाधान के लिए विश्वेश्वरैया ने इकॉनोमिक कॉन्फ्रेंस के गठन का सुझाव दिया। मैसूर के कृष्ण राजसागर बांध का निर्माण कराया। कृष्णराजसागर बांध के निर्माण के दौरान देश में सीमेंट नहीं बनता था, इसके लिए इंजीनियरों ने मोर्टार तैयार किया जो सीमेंट से ज्यादा मजबूत था। 1912 में विश्वेश्वरैया को मैसूर के महाराजा ने दीवान यानी मुख्यमंत्री नियुक्त कर दिया।

विश्वेश्वरैया शिक्षा की महत्ता को भलीभांति समझते थे। लोगों की गरीबी व कठिनाइयों का मुख्य कारण वह अशिक्षा को मानते थे। उन्होंने अपने कार्यकाल में मैसूर राज्य में स्कूलों की संख्या को 4,500 से बढ़ाकर 10,500 कर दिया। इसके साथ ही विद्यार्थियों की संख्या भी 1,40,000 से 3,66,000 तक पहुंच गई। मैसूर में लड़कियों के लिए अलग हॉस्टल तथा पहला फ‌र्स्ट ग्रेड कॉलेज (महारानी कॉलेज) खुलवाने का श्रेय भी विश्वेश्वरैया को ही जाता है। उन दिनों मैसूर के सभी कॉलेज मद्रास विश्वविद्यालय से संबद्ध थे। उनके ही अथक प्रयासों के चलते मैसूर विश्वविद्यालय की स्थापना हुई जो देश के सबसे पुराने विश्वविद्यालयों में से एक है। इसके अलावा उन्होंने श्रेष्ठ छात्रों को अध्ययन करने के लिए विदेश जाने हेतु छात्रवृत्ति की भी व्यवस्था की। उन्होंने कई कृषि, इंजीनियरिंग व औद्योगिक कालेजों को भी खुलवाया।

वह उद्योग को देश की जान मानते थे, इसीलिए उन्होंने पहले से मौजूद उद्योगों जैसे सिल्क, संदल, मेटल, स्टील आदि को जापान व इटली के विशेषज्ञों की मदद से और अधिक विकसित किया। धन की जरूरत को पूरा करने के लिए उन्होंने बैंक ऑफ मैसूर खुलवाया। इस धन का उपयोग उद्योग-धंधों को विकसित करने में किया जाने लगा। 1918 में विश्वेश्वरैया दीवान पद से सेवानिवृत्त हो गए। औरों से अलग विश्वेश्वरैया ने 44 वर्ष तक और सक्रिय रहकर देश की सेवा की। सेवानिवृत्ति के दस वर्ष बाद भद्रा नदी में बाढ़ आ जाने से भद्रावती स्टील फैक्ट्री बंद हो गई। फैक्ट्री के जनरल मैनेजर जो एक अमेरिकन थे, ने स्थिति बहाल होने में छह महीने का वक्त मांगा। जोकि विश्वेश्वरैया को बहुत अधिक लगा। उन्होंने उस व्यक्ति को तुरंत हटाकर भारतीय इंजीनियरों को प्रशिक्षित कर तमाम विदेशी इंजीनियरों की जगह नियुक्त कर दिया। मैसूर में ऑटोमोबाइल तथा एयरक्राफ्ट फैक्टरी की शुरूआत करने का सपना मन में संजोए विश्वेश्वरैया ने 1935 में इस दिशा में कार्य शुरू किया। बंगलूर स्थित हिंदुस्तान एयरोनॉटिक्स तथा मुंबई की प्रीमियर ऑटोमोबाइल फैक्टरी उन्हीं के प्रयासों का परिणाम है। 1947 में वह आल इंडिया मैन्युफैक्चरिंग एसोसिएशन के अध्यक्ष बने। उड़ीसा की नदियों की बाढ़ की समस्या से निजात पाने के लिए उन्होंने एक रिपोर्ट पेश की। इसी रिपोर्ट के आधार पर हीराकुंड तथा अन्य कई बांधों का निर्माण हुआ।

वह किसी भी कार्य को योजनाबद्ध तरीके से पूरा करने में विश्वास करते थे। 1928 में पहली बार रूस ने इस बात की महत्ता को समझते हुए प्रथम पंचवर्षीय योजना तैयार की थी। लेकिन विश्वेश्वरैया ने आठ वर्ष पहले ही 1920 में अपनी किताब रिकंस्ट्रक्टिंग इंडिया में इस तथ्य पर जोर दिया था। इसके अलावा 1935 में प्लान्ड इकॉनामी फॉर इंडिया भी लिखी। मजे की बात यह है कि 98 वर्ष की उम्र में भी वह प्लानिंग पर एक किताब लिख रहे थे। देश की सेवा ही विश्वेश्वरैया की तपस्या थी। 1955 में उनकी अभूतपूर्व तथा जनहितकारी उपलब्धियों के लिए उन्हें देश के सर्वोच्च सम्मान भारत रत्न से नवाजा गया। जब वह 100 वर्ष के हुए तो भारत सरकार ने डाक टिकट जारी कर उनके सम्मान को और बढ़ाया। 101 वर्ष की दीर्घायु में 14 अप्रैल 1962 को उनका स्वर्गवास हो गया।

1952 में वह पटना गंगा नदी पर पुल निर्माण की योजना के संबंध में गए। उस समय उनकी आयु 92 थी। तपती धूप थी और साइट पर कार से जाना संभव नहीं था। इसके बावजूद वह साइट पर पैदल ही गए और लोगों को हैरत में डाल दिया। विश्वेश्वरैया ईमानदारी, त्याग, मेहनत इत्यादि जैसे सद्गुणों से संपन्न थे। उनका कहना था, कार्य जो भी हो लेकिन वह इस ढंग से किया गया हो कि वह दूसरों के कार्य से श्रेष्ठ हो।

Sonia supports INTUC on Sep 7 general strike

Congress president Sonia Gandhi has backed the party-affiliated Indian National Trade Union Congress (INTUC) in joining the other trade unions' call for a nation-wide shutdown Sep 7 against the 'anti-worker' policies of the central and state governments, a party leader said Sunday.

'When the senior party leaders appraised her at an informal meeting recently about INTUC's decision to join the general strike, Gandhi told them that 'INTUC is meant for that' and directed senior party leader Oscar Fernandes to co-ordinate with the union government, party and INTUC to settle the workers' demands,' the leader, who did not want to be identified, told IANS.

The leader said Gandhi said she will herself take up the workers' issues with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

'I will talk to the prime minister (about the workers's demands). INTUC must take up workers' issues,' Gandhi told the meeting.

Sources in the INTUC told IANS said both Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee and Fernandes spoke to INTUC president G. Sanjeeva Reddy about the workers' demands after Gandhi's directives.

Protesting against price rise, violation of labour laws and disinvestment of public sector units (PSUs), eight major trade unions, including INTUC and the trade unions affiliated to the Left parties, have called for a country-wide general strike Sep 7.

The trade unions are also demanding rehabilitation of the workers and employees who lost their jobs due to the economic recession and for Rs.50,000 crore for an unorganised workers' social security fund. The government has only allocated Rs.1,000 crore for 40 crore unorganised workers in the country.

The other trade unions which have called the strike include Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M)-affiliated Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU), the All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC) and the Hind Mazdoor Sabha (HMS). The Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh, which is close to the Bharatiya Janata Party has not yet revealed its position.

INTUC national secretary R. Chandrasekharan told IANS that it was the first time in the history of independent India that INTUC had joined the trade unions affiliated to other political parties to call for an all India strike.

Dismissing the allegations by certain sections in the Congress party that it was a strike against the policies of the Manmohan Singh government, Chandrasekharan stressed the strike has been called for against anti-worker policies of both the centre and state governments.
So, the INTUC top brass acknowledge that the Central Govt.'s policies are Anti Worker.

And Sonia Aunty does her typical symbolism - participate in the strike.

भगवा आतंकवाद पर लिखी कविता - मैं आतंकी हूँ

मैं आतंकी हूँ
- डॉ. जय प्रकाश गुप्त

शीश शिखा होने से पक्का हिन्दु था ही,
मैंने भगवा ओढ़ लिया, मैं आतंकी हूँ।

आतंकी है भोर, है गोधूलि आतंकी
वह्नि की ज्वाला है दीपशिखा आतंकी
आतंकी है यज्ञ, वेदमन्त्र आतंकी
आतंकी यजमान, पुरोहित भी आतंकी
मैं इन सब का आदर करता पूज्य मानता
इन्हें, अत: मैं मान रहा मैं आतंकी हूँ।
मैंने भगवा ओढ़ लिया, मैं आतंकी हूँ।

आतंकी है राम और कृष्ण आतंकी
विश्वामित्र वसिष्ठ द्रोण कृप हैं आतंकी
बृहस्पति भृगु देवर्षि नारद आतंकी
व्यास पराशर कुशिक भरद्वाज आतंकी
मेरे ये इतिहास पुरुष पितृ ये मेरे
वंशज इनका होने से मैं आतंकी हूँ।
मैंने भगवा ओढ़ लिया, मैं आतंकी हूँ।

नामदेव नानक और दयानन्द आतंकी
रामदास (समर्थ) विवेकानन्द आतंकी
आदिशंकराचार्य रामकृष्ण आतंकी
गौतम कपिल कणाद याज्ञवल्क्य आतंकी
ये मेरे आदर्श सदा सर्वदा रहे हैं
इसीलिए मैं कहता हूँ मैं आतंकी हूँ।
मैंने भगवा ओढ़ लिया, मैं आतंकी हूँ।

भगवा तो भारत की है पहचान कहाता
प्रिय तिरंगा भी भगवा से शोभा पाता
भारतमाता के कर में भगवा फहराता
भारत की अस्मिता से है भगवा का नाता
बोध यदि भगवा का उग्रवाद से हो तो
अच्छा यही कि सब बोलें मैं आतंकी हूँ।
मैंने भगवा ओढ़ लिया, मैं आतंकी हूँ।

मैंने भगवा ओढ़ लिया, मैं आतंकी हूँ।

मैंने भगवा ओढ़ लिया, मैं आतंकी हूँ।

मैंने भगवा ओढ़ लिया, मैं आतंकी हूँ।

One Country Two Set of Rules

India sends $ 25 million Aid to Pakistan - through UN as demanded by Pakis - which will be utilized to kill even more Kaafirs (non Muslims) in India.
(http://www.indianexpress.com/news/India-hikes-Pak-flood-relief-to--25-m/675669)

Just a few km away from the Rashtrapati Bhawan, 3 camps of Kashmiri Pandits continue to run in tents for FOURTEEN years. As of date there are 100, 000 Kashmiri Pandits living as refugees in their own country. Sri Sri raises this point in this video.

But, as our respected Dr. MM Singh explains in the perfect definition of Congressi secularism,

"Muslims must have the first claim on nation's resources"
(http://ibnlive.in.com/news/pms-priority-muslim-development/28055-3.html).

Surely, in India, the biggest crime is of being a Hindu.

So, the Congress govt. buys toilet rolls for Rs. 4200 per roll while spending 30, 000 crores on CWG. Kashmiri Pandits are mad dogs meant to be killed. They deserve no budget.

Jai Ho !!!!
