Shifting the goal post on Shri Narendra Modi..

The much anticipated summons from the Supreme Court appointed Special Investigation Team, SIT have finally arrived and since than has been the talk of town’s gossip circuit.
As anticipated, the summons have sent the Indian Media on a circus, making it tough to tell noise from the substance.
An upcoming op-ed by Siddhartha Varadrajan stands out for a variety of reasons.
It is low on histrionics and hyperbole while being quite serious, cut and dry about the case being made against Shri Modiji. Mr. Varadrajan reminds that the case is specific to the complaint made by Zakia Jafferi, on the allegations of acts of commission and commission by the C.M. and the other holding office in connection with the 2002 riots.
It was however interesting to note that Mr. Varadrajan has shifted the legal goal goal post for Shri Modiji without quite acknowledging the same.
Mr. Varadrajanhas shifted the legal goal post for Shri Modiji without quite acknowledging the same.
Mr. Varadrajan does so by citing citing tenets of International law while at the same time admitting that
AS STAKE IS NOT SO MUCH THE INDIVIDUAL GUILT OR INNOCENCE OF SHRI MODIJI BUT THE NEED TO UNEARTH AND DISMANTLE A SYSTEM OF RULE WHICH COULD ALLOW NEARLY 2,000 INNOCENT PEOPLE TO BE MASSACRED.
While Mr. Varadrajan , acknowledges that
THOUGH THE INDIAN PENAL CODE DOES NOT CLEARLY DEFINE IT.
Mr. Varadrajan goes on to make a case for why the Indian Supreme Court, must in his words, use.
THE OPPORTUNITY TO PASS JUDGEMENT ON HIM BY BRINGING INDIAN LEGAL PRACTICE IN LINE WITH CUSTOMARY INTERNATIONAL NORMS.
It is interesting that Mr. Varadrajan, cleverly ignores to tell us that the said International norms are based on..
1.”ROME STATUTE” to which India is not even signatory.
2.Indian Parliament has passed no law, to date, to even recognize the jurisdiction of the International of the international Criminal Court that is based on this Statute.
So, even before the SIT has quizzed that Shri Modiji Mr. Varadrajan has come to the conclusion that..


1.It is very unlikely that a case can be made within the Indian Penal Code, as recognized by the Indian Constitution.
2.Indian Supreme Court must nevertheless go ahead and convict him, based on laws that do not exist within the constitution.
3.And that to do so the Supreme Court must sub-ordinate the Indian Parliament.
To go to such lengths and to suggest that laws that do not exist in India, courts that are not recognized by India must be brought into the picture while sub-ordinating the parliaments, reflects deep prejudice and bias, without even the basic courtesy of being “presumed innocent until proven guilty.”
A good discussion on the evolution of Doctrine of Command Responsibilities are found here.
A cursory reading of the ROME STATUTE, makes it clear that the definition of Genocide and Crimes against Humanity are so broad, that every communal riot and Terrorist Attack in India, can be described as such.
Applying this doctrine to Civilian Leaders for every such act would practically render the Indian system of Governance and Justice Delivery System redundant and irrelevant.
3.Such a mis-application would open the door for all kinds of frivolous and politically motivated lawsuits.
Let the Rule as defined by the Indian Penal Code within the Indian Constitution, takes its course on Shri Narendra Modi.

JUSTICE TO ALL, FLATTERY TO NONE..

PRESENTING THE TRUE CONDITIONS OF MUSLIMS IN GUJARAT AND INDIA..
For some years, to spit venom against the Govt. of Gujarat, has become a fashion statement.
And,
mind well, many of them are utter lies with malicious intentions and they have been spread throught India. The truth regarding Gujarat Govt.’s intentions and Shri Narendra Modi’s policies have not been projected in the accurate light. These lies propagate that Muslims are severely discriminated against and persecuted in Gujarat. It is a malevolent attempt by anti-Gujarat elements and political enmity to break the spinal cord of fast track progress rate of today’s Gujarat and to strike a blow on the good governance led by Shri Narendra Modi. Misconceptualations and Misinterpretentions have become the back bone of their Modi and Gujarat bashing agenda.
As a result of this campaign, it has been widely projected all around that Muslims in Gujarat are economically and socially segregated and are living in extremely backward conditions.This is far from the truth.
The conditions of Muslims has become the strongly debatable issue by the Congress led UPA Govt. at the centre.. In the year 2006, the Hon. P.M. Shri Manmohan Singh appointed a high power committee headed by the Honorable Justice Shri Rajinder Sachar. This committee was requested to undertake a detailed study of the economic, social and educational conditions of Muslims in the whole of India. The Sachar Committee after the thorough study has submitted a detailed report of over 400 pages. This report is like a shining Sun risen to dispel darkness created by widespread lies about Gujarat. This carefully compiled report projects that the Muslims are happiest in Gujarat. These survey done by a committee initiated by the UPA Govt. illuminates the fact that so called “activists” and “columnist” are deploying their energy and resources to intentionally destroy the harmony among the people of Gujarat.
Muslims are the happiest in Gujarat and how far the anti-Gujarat elements have harmed the interests of Muslims, opens up clearly in front of your eyes...
THE TRUTH IS..
Muslims in educational field.. {Sachar Committee Report:Page 287]
Literacy Rate for all Indians : 64.8% Literacy rate in Gujarat :69.1%
Literacy rate for Hindus in India :65.1% Literacy rate for Hindus in Gujarat :68.3%
Literacy rate for Muslims in India :59.1% {5 points lower than India average} Literacy rate for Muslims in Gujarat :73.5% {8 points higher than India average.}
Literacy rate in urban areas..{Sachar Committee report:page 287}
All Indians : India Urban 80% Gujarat Urban 82%
Muslims :India Urban 70% Gujarat Urban 76%
Muslim Males : India Urban 76% Gujarat Urban :84%
Muslim females: India Urban 63% Gujarat Urban 68%
IN GUJARAT, MUSLIM FEMALES IN URBAN AREAS BENEFIT WITH AVERAGE LITERACY RATE 5 POINT HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE AND MUSLIM MALES ACHIEVE EDUCATIONAL EXCELLENCE HIGHER BY 8% THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE.
Literacy rate in rural areas :{Sachar Committee report: page 287}
All Indians : India Rural 59% Gujarat Rural 61%
Muslims All : India Rural 59% Gujarat Rural 61%
Muslim Males : India Rural 62% Gujarat Rural 81%
Muslim Females :India Rural 43% Gujarat Rural 57%
IN GUJARAT, MUSLIM FEMALES IN RURAL AREAS BENEFIT WITH AVERAGE LITERACY RATE 14 POINTS HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE AND THE MUSLIM MALES ACHIEVE ACADEMIC EXCELLENCY, HIGHER BY 19% IN RURAL GUJARAT THAN THE AVERAGE NATIONAL RURAL.
One of the noticeable features of education among Muslims in Gujarat is, most Muslims are obtaining mainstream education and very low number of Muslim students are studying in Madrassas than the other states. They are educated in Govt. or Private Schools with the students of other religions. [NCERT Survey]
Number of Villages where population of Muslims is more than 1000 and there is no facility of a school..{Sachar Committee Report, page no. 294}
In the year 2001..
Gujarat had 6 such villages in comparison to 827 in West Bengal and 1365 in Uttar Pradesh.
but
today, Gujarat can boastfully announce that this folly has been completelt eradicated and there is no such village without the school facility..
MUSLIMS IN GOVERNMENT SERVICES: {Sachar Committee Report:Page no. 371}
home department:[proportion of Muslims in high posts]
States Proportion of Muslims in total populations, in % Proportion of Muslims in high posts, in %
Gujarat 9.1% 7.9%
West Bengal 25.2% 16.6%
Maharashtra 10.6% 1.9%
Kerala 24.7% 7.3%
Assam 30.9% 2.o%
Delhi 11.7% 4.o%
IN GUJARAT, PROPOTION OF MUSLIMS IS 9.1% AND OUT OF WHICH, 9.4% ARE IN HIGHER POSTS AND MUSLIMS IN LOWER CADRE EMPLOYMENT IS 17.1%
BANK ACCOUNT AND BALANCE AMOUNT [YEAR 2002 TO 2005, Sachar Committee Report: page no.351]
Gujarat..
Account wise average of Muslims Rs. 32,932.
West Bengal
Account wise average of Muslims Rs. 13,824
Assam
Account wise average of Muslims Rs. 26,319
This means that Muslims are comfortable to save more in Gujarat, while the economic conditions of Muslims in West Bengal and Assam are extremely bad.
PER CAPITA INCOME, PER MONTH OF MUSLIMS :{Sachar Committee Report: page 365}
Rural Sector: Gujarat-Rs. 668 [Hindus Rs. 644, Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes Rs. 527 and other backward classes Rs. 594]
West Bengal –Rs. 501
Assam –Rs. 511
Andhra Pradesh- Rs. 610
Orissa-Rs. 447
Uttar Pradesh- Rs.509.
THE PER CAPITA INCOME PER MONTH IN RURAL MUSLIMS IN GUJARAT IS 20 TO 25% MORE THAN THE MUSLIMS LIVING IN THE RURAL AREAS IN OTHER STATES AND IT IS ALSO MORE THAN THE OTHER PEOPLE OF GUJARAT. THE AVERAGE INCOME OF RURAL MUSLIMS IN INDIA IS RS. 533, WHERE AS, IN GUJARAT, IT IS MUCH MORE.
PER CAPITA INCOME, PER MONTH OF MUSLIMS :{Sachar Committee Report: page no. 364.}
Urban Sector : Gujarat-Rs. 875
West Bengal- Rs. 748
Andhra Pradesh- Rs. 803
Uttar Pradesh- Rs. 662
Orissa- Rs. 785
THE AVERAGE MONTHLY INCOME OF MUSLIMS IN THE CITIES OF INDIA IS Rs. 804, WHILE INCOME OF MUSLIMS IN GUJARAT IS MUCH MORE.
This statistics by Central Govt. led committee have presented a clear and ingenuous picture. This report is a befitting reply to those who are ever active to defame Gujarat.
The Sachar Committee Report has arrived as a ray of Truth in the midst of darkness created by the storm of lies. Policies and Projects, in Gujarat are not decided on the basis of religion, neither by the C.M. NOR BY THE Gujarat Administration.. but purely on the basis of impartial distribution. All Welfare Schemes are implemented without any kind of discriminations.
And..
Most importantly, Muslims also have to recognize those elements, who utilize them as their VOTEBANK only. They also have to understand that other states have givewn lesser support to Muslims and they are left suffering economically, socially and provided with lesser educational opportunity.
The misrepresentation and ignorance of factual conditions has been taken to excessive lengths to drive their unfavourable agenda. The campaign of falsity against Gujarat should end and there should be joint efforts to work towards communal harmony and equality for all the interests of our country.

Every Muslim in Gujarat would love to say...
WE ARE PROUD TO BE IN GUJARAT, OF TODAY.....WHERE WE REALLY SMILE.

Salute to Indian Parliament...

India or Indus Valley Civilization dates back to as old as 5000 years... The discovery of the ancient ruins of Harappa, by Shri Dayaram Sahni in 1921 and of Mohenjo-Daro by Shri Rakhaldas Banerjee in 1922-23, both officers of the Archaeological Survey of India, exploded an age old myth. It was earlier believed that the history of India began with the coming of the Aryans. The excavation of the ruins of the highly planned cities of Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro pushed back the history of India by almost 2000 years. It is believed beyond doubt that highly urban civilization had flourished and existed in India about 5000 years ago.
The advanced Harappan Civilization, which flourished between 2500 BCE-1500BCE, reached a stage of stagnation by 1500 BCE. Around this time, the Aryans began to arrive in India and Aryan invasion sounded the death knell for the Harappan civilization. The Aryans entered in India in stages and they settled in the Sapta Sindhu region of seven rivers. They named it Brahmavarta which means the land of the Gods. The period between 1500 BCE and 1000 BCE, during which they lived here, is known as the Early Vedic Period or the Rig Vedic Period which was composed during this time. The Aryans gradually moved ahead and settled in the Gangatic Valley and the entire area came to be called Aryavarta.
The Aryans began living in villages and each village was composed of a number of joint families. The head of the family was the eldest male member and his decision was considered to be final and binding on all the other members. Women, in the early Vedic period’s household enjoyed an important position in the society. Monogamy was the usual practice. Women were given the opportunity for education. Some women scholars have believed to have composed some of the Rig Vedic hymns. No religious ceremony could be performed unless the wife was present. Women could choose their husbands according to the ritual called Swayamvara. There was no child marriage and Widows were allowed to remarry. The study of Indian Philosophy, Vedas and Sanskrit Literature projects that women, in ancient Indian culture was not only considered compatible to men, but were given the status of Goddesses... Maa Durga, Maa Saraswati, Maa Lakshmi are worshipped unanimously.
The Aryans grouped themselves according to their skills in performing certain jobs. These eventually led to the development of four classes or varnas in the Aryan society.
The period from 1000 BCE-600 BCE, during which the Aryans settled in the Gangatic Valley is known as the Later Vedic Age. The later Vedas and the Upanishads were composed during this time. The classification of the society in the four varnas became rigid and hereditary. The four classes came to be known as the four castes... Caste was now decided by the birth and not by the occupation. Inter caste marriages were not allowed. The joint family system was further strengthened. The birth of a son was welcomed and the position of the women declined. They were now considered inferior to men. They no longer took part in the assemblies and their sole duty was to serve their husbands.
With the advent of time, the new religious beliefs came into existence in 6 century A.D. known as Islam in the Middle-East Asia and in the 7 century A.D. the Muslim invasion took place in the Indus Valley Civilization. With them they brought, their beliefs and values. According to Islam, the women were generally in ‘purdah’ and their right to education and same status as men was denied... This affected the women’s conditions in Indus valley, too and as a result, the lives of women were confined to household and to look after her family’s and husbands well beings. She did not have any say in any matter outside her home and received no education. Her exposure to the happenings of the world was near to nil and she mostly lived a life without any say or opinion. In the last two centuries, the gruesome ritual of Child Marriage and female infanticide came into existence.
The impact of Islamic influence and the continual rituals of Later Vedic Age proved to be distressful for women, living in Indian sub-continent. Later, when British came and the Indian sub-continent was put under the British rule, the same plight of the women continued. A very minute percentage of women came under the influence of educated British and received education and came out of their household to participate in public life.
The Indian women have been confined and locked in the four walls of her home since long time and has lost the courage to have her own opinion or exert her views to the society. As a result, the role of man in her life has become of a decision maker and however capable, she may be, she has always remained a second class citizen. After independence, she has been given the right to vote and voice her opinion but her opinions are generally reflection of the male member of her family... Not necessarily, she is incapable of taking an assessment on her own but probably, she has been forced to believe that she lacks the disclosure with the outside world and does not understand the nitty-gritty of leading a public life.
Women, when given the correct spotlight, have always proved her mettle... The examples are innumerable... Late Smt. Indira Gandhi, Late Smt. Benazir Bhutto, Smt. Sheikh Hasina, Late Smt. Sarojini Naidu, Smt. Jayawantiben Mehta, Smt. Anandiben Patel, Hon. President Smt. Pratibhatai Patil.. The list is endless... But these are just the few examples from our talented lot... Most of others, however capable they are, do not have the opportunity to prove themselves as our society, by rituals and beliefs, has turned into a male dominating.
To incorporate the habit of participation in public life, among the women in today’s India, the Women Reservation is a must.
Mainly,
The reason for this is as follows...
The women‘s psyche, for years has been abused and dishonored and they have always been considered an inferior human being..If not inferior, in some societies, but always homebound and her work domain has always been within the four walls of the house and matters related to it... The ones who are gifted with the capacities to denote their abilities for the betterment of the society, as much as the man himself, also hesitates to step in the outer world, in fear not to hurt the ego or the pride of male species. The reservation would ensure that their involvement in the public life... And not be a matter of tug-of-war between male and female.
It is indeed shameful that the question and fight regarding women’ reservation has to arise... The Indian Constitutions has officially presented the right of equality to women since India became Republic, but the irony is the prevalent atmosphere, which hinders the equal status to be cherished by the women.
According to the last census, in the population of India, the ratio of male-female is nearly the same but the contribution in workload is more than 33%. And the rest 66% is denoted in the household chorus..Yet, the women earn only 10% of the total income earned... This denotes that the women must be given at least 40% reservation. Out of rest of 60%, the men should be provided with the equal 40% and the rest of 20% on the basis of merit, regardless of their sex.
The reservation for women is not the end to their problems but could be a beginning of their walk on the different kind of thorny road at the end of which, the Green House of achievement awaits...
The road is not so smooth and glossy. There are many hurdles on the way...
But,
The Women Reservation ensures the entire society, the men and women equal to dedicate their complete energy for the uplifting of the fellow beings and no bargain in regards to their sex is provided.
But,
Today, after a prolonged period of uncertainties, the Women Reservation Bill is about to be passed. In the current political scenario, most of the major political posts are occupied by women. We have the first woman president since independence, Smt. Pratibha Devi Sinh Patil... The first woman speaker of Lok Sabha, Smt. Meera Kumar, Congress president Smt. Sonia Gandhi, The Leader of Opposition, Smt. Sushma Swaraj are all doing exceptional work in their chosen fields.. To top it all, Mamta Banerjee, The Bengal Tigress is giving a tough competition to veteran male politicians Shri Pranab Mukherjee and the West Bengal C.M. Shri Buddhadeb Bhattacharya. Same is the case with Jaylalitha in Tamil Nadu. The most exceptional example being of Mayawati, who has single handedly fought against the trio – Mulayam Singh’s Samajwadis, the Congress and the BJP – and prevailed successfully.
In the field of astronomy, Kalpana Chawla and Sunita Williams are names to reckon with Smt. Jaya Bachchan, Smt. Jaya Prada, Smt. Shabana Azmi and Smt. Hema Malini have proven their mettle having a dual career of performer as well as politician. In the field of sports, Sania Mirza and Saina Nehwal have brought glories for the nation in Tennis and Badminton respectively. In the field of dance and music, Respected Lataji, Ashaji, Sitara Devi and Mrinalini Sarabhai are the shining stars of India...
Thus,
Women sparkle in every possible fields and truly deserves the opportunity to shoulder the burden as well and as good as men himself.
But,
Of course, the women bill should not become tool to provide a cushioned carpet for the families of the Who’s Who and it must provide equal chance to every capable and eligible person. But, in the beginning, it is likely that more of already little upper crusts of the society take the advantage of this opportunity. The reason being, they have more reachability to donate their time, money and energy for the uplifting of not so fortunate class. But, such discrimination should not create the class difference among the capable women but it should be an example for the talented but homebound, ritual bound women of our country.
Again, I would say that have to pass such a bill, even after the 62 years of Indian Independence and that too, when our Constitution has the provision of equal status as well as opportunity to women, is definitely an irony... but, at the same time, any special status, be it for minority or for Dalits cannot and should not become a permanent fixture. After a span of few years, when the differentiation between the man and the woman starts to decline and they both are on the same footing, the reservation should be abolished and the opportunity should be given purely on merit. Of course, that may take another quarter of a decade.
But,
Better Late Than Never...
I, as a woman, salute the Indian Parliament for passing the Bill, ever so required, for time eternal...
And,
Looking forward to contribute in my little way, for the betterment of my country...

Mr. Maqubool Fida Hussain..loyalty to Motherland or Who Cares?

If Shri Hussain claimed to be patriotic towards his Motherland, he would never have accepted the citizenship of Qatar and would have preferred coming over to his own nation and faced the court..
Since last four years, the whimsical painter is absconding from Indian soil.` Instead of facing the accusations, decided to give up the citizenship of birth land..
Now Hussain Lovers.. Please don’t jump up with the argument that in the land of birth, one is free of expression because it is where he belongs.. No.. When we live with the family members, we do take care of the feelings and emotions of one another..The population of a country must have the feeling of brotherhood, where the feelings and beliefs of each other are not disrespected..Shri Hussain has tried hurting the emotions of majority of brothers and sisters..No freedom of Expression has Right to hurt..
The followers of Hussain, states that Hussain had no choice as the Indian Govt. failed in providing security to Maqubool Fida Hussain and thus the only choice was to flee.. This is a bizarre argument.. I presume, Shri Hussain and his followers are completely secular in their conduct and approach..If they are, than a secular minded person or a group does not ever projects a Goddesses of another religion naked and obscene. To show Sita Mata sitting naked on the thighs of Ravan and Lakshmi Devi resting on the shoulders of Shri Ganesh in nude, is discourteous and shameless..Does he have the guts to portray the Mother of Mohhammed Paigambar Sahib even scantily dressed..?That could have been a piece of art , too..! He won’t because he is fanatic about his religion.. There is nothing wrong in believing in ones religion but ridiculing other’s faith is completely ill mannered..
And,
For such contempt, if there are cases against him, he is not expected to run away and take a permanent shelter elsewhere.. he is expected to come here and apologise for hurting the feelings of Millions..
If, Mr. Hussain has right to express, as a celebrity, it was his humble duty to provide support to Taslima Nasreen, who for a similar cause, of expression of thoughts and beliefs is under scunization..
If Hussain’s expression is justified, so be it for Taslima..
Personally, I don’t favor any one targeting religious beliefs of any religion.. be it Hindu, Muslim or Christian..
But,
If the expression of Art is only in the form of pervert paintings of Hindu Godesses and Bharat Mata, that biased expression is strongly condemnable. Mr. Hussain better know, that this is India and the people living out here are forgiving by nature, that they have let you live at least somewhere on the earth..
Imagine doing this, [as you proclaim to be a secularist] painting a figure of Mohammed Paigambar Saheb’s mother stripped..
And visualize the outcome..
Can you envision anything else than..?

Beware Congress Supporters..!

Are you aware that the Congress mentality of “Congress Party Before Nation” is an exhibition of “Patriotismlessness”..?
We all are children of Motherland Bharatmata and no party, no party beliefs or no party leaders are exclusive than our nation. Gujarat, is an integral part of our country and every person associated with the state would be naturally rejoicing over the achievements of growth the state has achieved. Its a moment of glory and the feeling of pride, as Gujarat completes its 50th year on 1st May 2010. It came into existence exactly 50 years back as a separate entity[state] of India and on in the fiftieth year, it has earned the place, contributing the highest GDP of 12.79% to Indian Economy.
Its a matter of delight..
Its a matter of bliss..
Its a matter of accomplishment..
for all Gujaratis..[people living within the boundary of Gujarat, from Vapi to Banaskantha and Sabarkantha and Kutch to Dang, may be belonging to any caste, class, religion or creed]..
And, I am sure it would be a moment of boundless happiness, to each one, belonging to any party..
The Gujarat Govt. is celebrating these glorious moments of Swarnim Gujarat, a yearlong festivity, as a tribute to all those who have contributed ceaselessly, for the mammoth progress of the state and as a result, have been instrumental in our beloved Motherland Bharatmata , gaining a status of progressive country..
On 1st January 2010, the Gujarat Govt. led by Hon. C.M. Shri Modiji, celebrated the rising of new decade with the novel concept.. Growing above the discriminations of party politics, each one who had representated the state since its invention in 1960, in Loksabha as well as Vidhansabha, were invited to be present in the Sachivalay Hall of Gandhinagar. Each representative of Gujarat legislature and parliament , ypung and upcoming as well as old and handicapped met with emotions flowing high but with the solo resolution in their mindset, SWARNIM GUJARAT..
It was a memorable moment when the Hon. Chief Minister, of present and past, the Hon. Speakers of current and Yesteryears and Hon. Leader of Oppositions of today and yesterdays greeted each other with warmth and affection and declared their solidarity to the celebration of Swarnim Gujarat..
It was truly the song of EK SUR..EK LAY..EK DHYEY..that was recited by each of the leader..
And,
The resolution of togetherness and rising above the party belonging, by both the parties, the ruling and the opposition, was appreciated and cherished ful lheartedly..
But,
The Congress Culture can not resist presenting its true colors..
Now, Congress is planning to celebrate the memorable moment of Swarnim Gujarat, on 1st May2010 in a separate function and create competition.. Please don’t pain your minds to, who will win, but the entire conduct by the Congress is in bitter taste..
Gujarat, or for that matter, any state does not belong to a single party and it is the duty of the entire lot of representatives and citizens to share its joy and sorrows, hand in hand..In stead, the Congress of Gujarat is planning its own celebration, solely to show venom and vengeance!
Dear Shaktisinhji..[Leader of Opposition]
We, all were extremely pleased to read your comment and resolution, EK SUR..EK LAY..EK DHYAYE.. to be part of Swarnim Gujarat,
but,
Congress Culture and its mentality of Party Over State, has taken over you, it seems..
You have always projected yourself to be a very impressive person and this conduct is contrary to your image and persona..
When Gujarat, came into the existence in 1960, the Congress Govt. was in power then.. Thus, it is your humble duty to be part of the state celebration and not considered the Congress Party to be above the State of Gujarat..

Shame on Us!!!

Shame on us..
We, the Indian Govt. in the center is about to commit one more grave goof-up. It is considering, opening the border from the POK and inviting the once Kashmiri Indian population but now colored by the terrorism in the Pakistan occupied Kashmir, back to be part of Indian territory, if they wish to..!!
Such a great idea has been gifted to our Hon. Home Minister Shri P.Chidambaram, by none other than the Jammu-Kashmir’s C.M. Hon. Shri Omar Abdullah and the green signal to repeat the mistakes of the past is given by the Home Minister..
Omar is dying to re-establish the culprits of yesterdays and to forgive their crimes..but he has conveniently forgotten that another group of people, who were very much part of Kashmir and who belonged to this land for more than 5000 years have been mercilessly and forcefully removed from their homeland and are living a life worse than one in hell..Its been 20 long years, to world’s biggest Ethnic Cleansing and the children, who had left their “Madre Vatan”, when they were barely a few years old, can not even remember it.
People have spent generations in the temporary, curtain separated homes..and their heart bleeds when they have no choice but to call this partitions their homes..How can one forget that they hail from “paradise on earth”!!
Its pity, its shame and it’s a matter of disgrace on the part of Central Govt. as well as media..especially, the English Media, who is ever ready with loaded guns to shoot the majority population on the anniversary of Babri Masjid or post Godhra riots..but their barking is completely one sided and they sit relaxed if the accused are Kasmiri Pundits.. They have closed their ears and shut their eyes towards the biggest Ethnic Cleansing of the globe. The drained out Pundits couldn’t do anything else but shed a few tears and blame their fate..The Hon. Home Minister acknowledged the plan of Shri Omar Abdullah and the hoarse voice of the Pundits remained unheard..They had demanded their own state, a piece of land, where originally they belonged to re-establish themselves, but were denied vehemently.
The only part that the media found appealing was, that Mr. Chidambaram considered the POK to belong to India!! Anything innovative? Friends.. POK always belonged to India and thanks to the dirty game played by the Britishers and the Pakistanis, we lost 78,114 kilometers of our land to the Pakis.. It was not a war won by them and no pressure of UNO or anything worked on them to return the land! Now, what has remained is 1,38,992 sq. kilometer of Kashmir..!
According to the historical facts, the land where Kashmir is situated today, was a mountain range of Varah Mulla and a huge lake within..The grandson of Brahma, Sage Kashyap pulled off one mountain range and the entire lake became empty..That area is Baramullah of North Kashmir..and the valley that came into existence due to emptying of the lake is our paradise on earth- Kashmir.. According to the British historians, the race known as Kashmiri Pundits were the original Aryans inhabiting the land since last 5000 years...!The Muslim invaders were so damn fanatics that they did not wish to spare a single Pundit.. Neither they approved of their leaving the land and migrating nor they wished that they remained Hindu Pundits.. They desired to convert them forcibly..As a result, many committed suicide and many accepted Islam out of no choice. Later on, when Akbar won the area of Kashmir, and for some time, the peace prevailed. When the rule of Ahmedshah Abdalli came, again it was torture for the Pundits.. They crossed the limits in torture and the Pundits used to be packed in a gunny bag and mercilessly thrown in the Dal Lake.. The Pundits asked for the help from Maharaja Ranjitsinhji of Punjab and Maharaja sent his troup with commander Diwanchand and won the land of Kashmir in 1819.That was a temporary relief for the Pundits anguish. But, the situation went from bad to worse once India attained freedom. The short sightedness of Indian rulers towards their policies regarding Kashmir and the constant poking from Pakistan resulted into the movement to separate Kashmir from being the integral part of India.. The years from 1987 to 1990 faced the worst period ever in the history of independent India and the movement to either convert or kick the Pundits from the soil of their motherland gained momentum.
Till today, the Pundits are leaving as refugees in different parts of their own nation and generations are growing up as homeless.. But the Pundits after years of heinous and torturous life, have lost the will to combat.. it seems. Their demand of creating a part of land as Punoon Kashmir has been rejected and their plight is heartbreaking..
Before bending down on their knees in front of the Pakistani authority and roaring about peace and harmony between the two nations, the Indian Govt. should give a glance to their very own Kashmiri Pundits’s quandary of two decades..We and our Govt. in the center is for appeasing the minority, and in that very manner, the Hindus are in a minority in Kashmir..!!!
Please burn your blood and shed a few tears for our very own brothers..
But,
Please do not stop there. They need justice.. Justice, that we have forgotton extremely cooly as they are small in number and small as Vote bank..
So,
It is shame on us..
The Divya Bhaskar [Gujarati] has published the detail massacres of Kahmiri Pundits. Read it yourself and weep!!
21st March 1997, 7 Pundits killed in Sangrampura.
15th June 1997, 3 Pundits killed in Udhampur.
26th January 1998, 23 Pundits were massacred in Vandhana.
5th February 2000, 2 Pundits murdered in Anantnag.
13th July 2002, 24 Pundits killed in Kasimnagar.
23rd March 2003, 25 Pundits murdered in Nandigram.
These are the figures of the massacres of Pundits after 1990, who did not wish to leave motherland.
After 1997, in the 13 years, 8 group muders on a lhuge scale has taken place by the terrorists and the police has failed to locate culprit. In Gujarat, post Godhara, Shri Modiji, is held responsible, without anything proved against him as yet, but no Faroukhs or Omars or Gulamnabi Azad or Mufti Saiyyad or Mehbooba are answerable to any action of crimes in Kashmir..

Is it not the time to come out of the dream world?

Another intelligence failure. What face does the Congress Govt. have now and what is their claim to power, now?
The Bomb blast in the German Bakery in Pune..Our Hon. Home Minister, Shri P. Chidambaram denies it being the failure of the Intelligence...The Maharashtra Home Minister, Hon. Shri R.R. Patil admits it being the lapse of the Intelligence..The contradictory statements and the history is repeated..
What else is it, if not the blatant lapse of intelligence?
How does it happen, that every few months, India is a target of terrorism and our Govt. is caught napping.. Isreal is sitting amongst number of enemy nations and not one of those has the guts to finger it.. The U.S. faces one terror and not a single incidence of terror takes place, again. Why is that our enemy feels free to assault us repeatedly?
Why is Mr. R.R. Patil still on the post? Why Mr. Ashok Chavan not given his resignation?
Do we lack the required trained police force? I don’t think so..as we had sufficient to deploy, when Shri Rahul Gandhi visited the city [approximately 12,000] and when Shri Sharukh khan’s film was being released [app.20,000]. I have personally nothing against them and I feel that it is the Govt.’s duty to ensure security to every of his citizen to pursue his pursuit of living..but were they sent on the already committed holiday, when the blast took place? [at the time of Shahrukh’s films release, all the police force was asked to cancel their leave.] If the police force is not adequate, India has huge population and many more people can be appointed in the police force but the excuse of failure of intelligence or the inadequate police force is absolutely condemnable.
We, the citizens of India and the majority of the population following Hindu religion are basically peace oriented. But our harmony orientation should not be mistaken as incapability to protect our own land or people. Our media constantly bark about “AMAN KI AASHA” but what Aman are we talking about? In the hope of Aman, the outsiders come and do Chaman[enjoyment] out here and present us with a gift of Bomb Blast!! Now, the argument , by the media and the suedo-intellectuals, who remain in their closed circuit imaginary mindset that “ALL IS WELL” and sports and arts and entertainment should be considered exclusive and out of the parapet of animosity and hostility. But is there any guaranty that along with the artistes that visited India in Asha of Aman, were not accompanied by the terrorists!! It may appear jarring thought but the result is in front of your eyes.. A slap across our face.. Venue- German Bakery, Pune..
Are we sooooo naïve that we do not have the guts to constantly scrutinize the India based Islamic Terrorist Groups like SIMI and Indian Mujahhuddin and other such outfits that are proven to be associated with the Terrorist groups? Why do we always start searching for the medicine after we have been hit hard by the diseases? And that too, again and again..
The simple conclusion to these entire fiasco is.. Stop this peace talks as they are completely one-sided and the other side is having a good laugh at your expense and throw away this thoughts of Opening of the border from POK..At least stop living in the dream world that marriage is possible between the two nations, as one sided love can only result into divorce..Face the reality and take a stand..please stop talking about peace with Pakistan till Pakistan is proved innocent in the blasts of Pune.
I am sure the person sitting in the authority as the Hon. Home Minister is well versed and intelligent, than is it the lack of political will?
