It’s another Gandhi Jayanti. Many glowing tributes
will be paid to him, Rajghat will be decorated. Politicians will atone for
their sins at his Samadhi. Expectedly, Rajdeep
Sardesai will promote another book on the Mahatma by ‘Eminent Distortian’ Ram Guha. Reality: Everything positive about
MKG has already been destroyed by the Congress party. Now Sushil Kumar Shinde has a new plan. He has written to all Chief
Ministers “Ensure no Muslim youth is wrongfully detained”. And then the Congress will scream other parties
are communal. The stupidity apart, the illegality of such a letter and its
Constitutional invalidity does not matter to the Congress. Of course, they will
tell you they respect the Constitution, the law, the courts, the people while
doing exactly the opposite very frequently.
Those who have observed the Congress party closely
would know by now that the party doesn’t have any ideology; political or
economic. After any court verdict you will hear any number of Congress spokies
grandly state “we respect the courts and
respect the verdict”. Like many other lies, this is another lie that the
party revels in. This party has a history of disrespecting courts and negating
verdicts. It was Jawaharlal Nehru’s
intolerance of routine criticism and an order of Madras High Court that led to
the first amendment to the Constitution that curbed free speech. It was the
order of Allahabad HC which led to Indira
Gandhi imposing Emergency. It was the SC order in the Shah Bano case for
which Rajiv Gandhi amended the
Constitution again. Anyone left? Oh yes, the SC ruled against the right of
convicted legislators to continue in office or contest elections. So under Sonia Gandhi there’s the Ordinance to
protect convicted politicians. Of course, Rahul
“Complete Nonsense” Gandhi tried to
play a local hero by screaming against the Ordinance but it remains to be seen
what his rogue Diva act comes to.
RG lives in a time when it’s hard to fool people
and the corrupt fixers and brokers in the “Mithai Swallowing Media” (MSM) have no monopoly on the national discourse.
Public opinion creates tremendous pressure through other media. However, the
fundamental tactic of Congress of dividing the nation, dividing people by
religion, caste and community remains intact. Every time the party has been
given the opportunity to govern the nation they have only sunk it further and
destroyed more democratic and national institutions.
The Congress neither has a history of respecting
the Opposition nor does it have a history of respecting the law. If any Congi
tells you that then take it with a truck-load of salt. The Congress dumped MK Gandhi’s
political principles immediately after he died. Any semblance of democracy that
was left inside was dumped by IndiraG. The claim that this is the same party of
100+ years is a fake claim further supported by mongrels in the media. The
claim that this is the party that fought for independence is equally dubious. This
is Congress (I) and not the original
INC. This is the Congress of IndiraG which created a culture of putting strong
political opponents into prison. To get a better idea of how this practice of
fake legal cases continues you can read this latest piece from Arun Jaitley written to the PM. It’s
in the context of all this that one has to view the sinister design behind
Shinde’s letter.
Here’s a short clip I received on email. This is a
discussion on Pakistani news channel News
One. The panellist doesn’t look like a Jihadi or terrorist. He talks like a
well-educated, scholarly man. I have no other details of who the anchor or
guest is but his words are worth listening to:
Interesting, isn’t it? The guy wants entire Hindustan to be turned into Pakistan. He wants
Radio Pakistan to be the main voice. We would be foolish to imagine this is a
lone-wolf. We would be equally foolish to imagine that there aren’t some people
and some politicians in India who do not share his vision. There is a very high
probability that a lot of Pakistanis and some in India from the media also share
his grand vision. Breaking India is not imagination;
it’s a reality to confront.
In the movie Gandhi
(1982), which is considered authentic by the GOI and which was supported by
IndiraG’s govt, MK Gandhi tells Jinnah he can be the first PM of India and have
Muslims as ministers and in many senior positions (Youtube 2.39.00). Ah well, you could say MMS follows
Gandhian principles when he suggested "Muslims have the first right on the
resources of country". This, after a state called Pakistan was created
based on religious lines. Carry on,
Shinde! That’s not all. In another scene in the same video Nehru tells
Gandhi that if he persisted with his stubbornness “there will be no Hindus left in Pakistan” (2.44.00). I leave it to
you to decipher the context of Nehru’s remark to Gandhi; it’s not rocket
science. At least on that count Nehru proved right. Millions of Hindus were
killed in East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) and the Hindu population in Pakistan
has almost been cleansed. Subsequent follies of Indian govts have also seen the
cleansing of Hindus from Kashmir. So now it’s worth getting back to Shinde’s
and Congress’ evil design.
During the UP elections campaign in 2012 Salman Khurshid, who is
incapable of uttering one coherent sentence but is a media darling because he
speaks English, screamed he will carve out a 9% reservation for Muslims out of
the 27% meant for OBCs. He even dared the Election Commissioner to hang him.
Bravo! Arun Jaitley pointed out then too that this wasn’t 9% but when you
consider it’s a slice of the 27% it’s actually 33%. Mulayam Singh wants 3 Muslim policemen at every police
station. Bravo! The guy who denies existence of Indian Mujahideen and is also
alleged to be involved in Waqf land scams, K.Rahman Khan wants special courts for Muslims. That guy in the Paki news
channel video certainly isn’t going to be disappointed. Oh by the way, even some Muslims are now seeing
though the trickery of people like Rahman Khan.
But what is the truth? I have said many times facts
count and opinions belong in the dustbin. When Ministers such as Shinde and
parties like Congress and SP start making polices based on opinions you know
governance is a grave yard. It was only Arnab
Goswami on the Newshour on
September 30 who talked facts on the issue of undertrials and convicted people
in India’s prisons. The other channels made it more of “communal or not”
discussion. Does Shinde’s nonsense being absolutely communal even need a
debate? But hey, that’s what CNN-IBN or NDTV is for; mindless mental
masturbation. Here are the stats that Arnab put up:
According to the graph put up by Arnab the
undertrials are: Hindus 69.9% and
Muslims 21%. Where convicted persons
in prisons are concerned: Hindus: 71.4%
and Muslims 17.8% Are these stats reliable?
Absolutely! You can check out the whole report on prison population by all
demographics for 2012 put out by National Crime Records Bureau.
Shinde’s nonsense probably originated from a case
in Andhra Pradesh where the High Court struck down compensation paid by the State govt to Muslim youths wrongly
detained for long. Subsequently, the same HC withdrew the order and has
reserved further orders. Even in this case there is a clear cut communal act on
the part of AP govt. I doubt too many people will argue on the compensation
issue, although there is no such provision in law, but choosing to give money selectively to Muslims is again a divisive
policy of the Congress. And other parties are communal?
Every aspiration and hope that India started out
with after Independence mostly stand destroyed. There is a certain evil element
in the manner in which Congress govts make policies and still claim they are “secular”.
Their practices have seen the rise of the most corrupt politicians, family
members and relatives profiting from the system. If there were 500+ small
provinces at India’s Independence, there are hundreds of small fiefdoms of
politicians and their families. They are as accountable to people as the
British were. I doubt Sardar Patel
would have been pleased to see this state of affairs. To say that the Congress
has betrayed MK Gandhi would be an understatement. But they didn’t stop there.
With their communal acts and those of their allies they have even betrayed
Nehru.
In the movie Gandhi that I’ve referred in this post
there was a scene around 2.49.00 when Nehru receives information of the
Calcutta riots and Gandhi going on a fast again. A Police head comes in and
suggests because the riots were so severe they may need separate Hindu and
Muslim police. This is the script
from the actual movie released:
In the little red box within the image of the
script above you will note that Nehru angrily lashes out at the idea and says “There will not be a
Hindu police and a Muslim police. There is one Police!” What people
DON’T know is that this particular scene and dialogue has been censored from
many of the movie’s editions that are on Youtube. The scene and dialogue has
also been sanitised and removed from many CD/DVD versions that were released
about 8 years ago in India. I have a copy and it doesn’t have this scene. In
the original movie and the many times it was shown even on TV till about 2000
the scene was very much there. Anyone abroad having the original movie will
vouch for it.
Even Nehru, despite his flawed policies, did not subscribe to the idea of different
police for Hindus and Muslims. Though, do note that even Nehru wanted to wait
FOUR days before he rushed to riot-hit Calcutta, on a Friday. Are our Congress
or “Secular” parties any different now? But now you have crooked politicians
making policies for Muslim police, Muslim courts and to go easy on arresting
Muslim youths. Would Nehru have
approved? I don’t think so. So the Congress not only betrayed Mahatma
Gandhi and Sardar Patel, they are now betraying Nehru who is their party’s
biggest icon. It is one thing to criticise events and policies by one's assessment but quite something else when you measure them by their respect for their own icons. I have nothing more to say.
