INDIA SUMMARIZED

If you need to understand the shallowness of Indian political secularism, the recent fuss over Narendra Modi is an eye-opener, assuming we need one more eye-opener to acknowledge this phenomenon.   Last week, Samajwadi party leader and Urdu journalist Shahid Siddiqui was declared persona non grata by his party for having the temerity to interview Modi. What would normally have been considered a coup for any journalist – for Modi rarely gives interviews – was seen as a sin in Siddiqui.    He should have known what was coming. Even before the party got into the act, Teesta Setalvad, who has converted Gujarat 2002 into her life’s work, told prime-time viewers on Times Now that Siddiqui would pay a political price for his act – and this even before she had seen that interview in Nai Duniya.   A Muslim interviewing Modi? God forbid. That’s communal.   ‘If you need to understand the shallowness of Indian political secularism, the recent fuss over Narendra Modi is an eye-opener.’   Si

IS IT FOR TRUTH ? SURELY NOT. OTHERWISE WHY THEY MOSTLY CENSOR GORY NEWS OF MURDER AND MAYHEM OF HINDUS IN JAMMU & KASHMIR ; OF RAPE AND ABDUCTION OF HINDU WOMEN AND ETHNIC CLEANSING OF CLOSE TO HALF A MILLION HINDUS FROM KASHMIR VALLEY ? WHY THEY REFUSE TO PRINT THE DETAILS OF STORIES ON THE HELLISH ACT OF SETTING FIRE AND BURNING ALIVE SIXTY HINDU PILGRIMS, INCLUDING FORTY WOMEN AND CHILDREN IN A CLOSED TRAIN COACH. WHY THEY TOTALLY CENSOR THE BARBARIC TORTURE ,LAND GRAB , EVICTION, FORCIBLE TAKEOVER OF HINDU BUSINESSES IN BANGLADESH. EVEN THE DESTRUCTION OF HINDU TEMPLES AND RAPE AND ABDUCTION, CONVERSION AND FORCIBLE "NIKAH" OF HINDU WOMEN ARE NOT REPORTED. THE MOST INJURIOUS TO INDIA'S SECULAR WELL-BEING IS THE INFILTRATION OF MILLIONS OF BANGLADESHIS AND PAKISTANIS WHO ARE BRED IN THEOCRATIC ISLAMIC STATE , WITH ISLAMIC THEOCRATIC MIND-SET . THAT IS ALSO A DANGER TO INDIA'S DEMOGRAPHY AS WELL TO POPULATION EXPLOSION . THESE ARE NEVER PROBED. WHY INDIA

THEUnion cabinet is like a king who becomes richer and richer at the peril of his subjects. Not a few, but almost 77 percent of the Union Council of Ministers are crorepatis, the rich and prosperous ruling club of a nation reeling under widespread corruption, inflation and price rice. In an analysis of the assets declaration of Union Council of Ministers in the PMO website, the Association for Democratic Reforms and National Election Watch says the average asset value of a minister in the current ministry is 10,63,55,097.   The growth rate of their assets is amazing and many wish if the country would grow at least half the pace as the wealth of these ministers. The average asset value of a minister was 7.3 cores in 2009 and today it's at 10.6 crores.   Interestingly Defense Minist A K Antony and Minister of Corporate Affairs Veerappa Moily are at the bottom of the list with Antony possessing only 35 lakhs and Moily having assets worth just 13 Lakhs.   Surprisingly a prominent f

The motormouth indiscretions of rent-a-quote politicians have a nasty habit of coming back to bite them. And showing up their ‘sagely’ pronouncements as the cynical mechanics of politics where anything goes.   Which is why the Congress party’s topmost troll, Digvijaya Singh, is today performing linguistic contortions to deflect criticism of the failure of the party’s government in Assam to restore order for days after the riots broke out. Some 44 people have so far been killed, and nearly 2 lakh people have been drive out of their homes are in refugee shelters, and the riots have spread to more parts of Assam.   Asked why the Tarun Gogoi government had failed to put down the riots for days, Digvijaya Singh, in an interview to CNN-IBN, trotted out many alibis. Assam, he said, was “not an easy state to govern.” Its complex demographics, and the multiplicity of ethnic identities, rendered it volatile, which had manifested itself in many incidents of ethnic conflict over the years, h

What? Yes, I know most of you idiots don’t know that large scale riots are going on in Assam. Few estimates show that approximately 1.5 lakh people have been displaced due to it and as many as 70 have lost their lives. And this is just a conservative estimate. Why? The illegal immigrants from Bangladesh started trying to occupy land which belonged to the Bodo people and other natives of Assam which obviously any true-blue Indian will and should oppose. History? It will surprise most of you that this is not a new problem. Students and other groups of Assam have been protesting against this illegal immigration since last 3 decades. Since, this problem was not nipped in its bud, it grew. Now, the number of illegal immigrants in Assam and West Bengal outnumbers the locals. So, if any of them stands in the election, they win and the the rampage begins. So, the question is, if everybody knows what the problem is since last 30 fucking years, why the hell was nothing done for it? Twis

इस्लामाबाद। पाकिस्तान मे एक हिंदू बच्चे के इस्लाम धर्म परिवर्तन अनुष्ठान को टेलीविजन पर लाइव प्रसारित करने के बाद माहौल विवादास्पद हो गया है। इस लाइव प्रसारण पर टिप्पणी करते हुए एक पाकिस्तानी समाचारपत्र ने लिखा है “यह साफ संकेत है कि पाकिस्तान में गैरइस्लामी लोग इस्लाम धर्म जैसा सम्मान और स्टेटस नहीं पा सकते।” समाचार पत्र डॉन में शुक्रवार को प्रकाशित संपादकीय में कहा गया है पाकिस्तान की इलेक्ट्रॉनिक मीडिया चीजों को मसालेदार बनाने के लिए किसी भी हद तक जा सकती है और अब वे धर्म को भी इस्तेमाल कर रहे हैं। इस मामले की आलोचना करते हुए इस संपादकीय में यह भी लिखा गया है कि व्यवसायीकरण की दौड़ में मीडिया अपनी नीतियों और व्यावहारिक बुद्धि का इस्तेमाल नहीं कर रहा है। मंगलवार को प्रसारित किए गए इस शो में स्टूडियो में मौजूद दर्शकों के बीच इमाम ने एक हिंदू बच्चे का धर्म परिवर्तन किया था। शो के बारे में लिखते हुए समाचार पत्र में यह भी कहा गया है “बच्चा अपनी मर्जी से धर्म परिवर्तन कर रहा था या नहीं, यह एक अलग मुद्दा है। लेकिन इस शो के प्रसारण से गैर इस्लामी मजहब के लोगों में एक गलत संदेश ज

Taking serious note of planned terror & Human Rights Violations against Original Tribes & other Hindus in Assam, VHP International Working President Dr Pravin Togadia blamed the Union Govt & bordering State Govts for infiltrations from Bangla Desh & Pakistan. Dr Togadia said, “For years Islamic invaders are attacking Bharat. Even after Bharat’s independence it continued & worse is that now the infiltrators have got Bharat’s citizen’s status while original citizens & tribes of Bharat are treated as the secondary citizens. This is because Hindus do not stand together as ONE while voting & Minorities become important vote banks for all politicians.” He warned the Govts, “Kashmir, Assam, Tripura, Bengal, Odisha & all other bordering states need to seal their borders preventing any infiltration as once. At this stage, almost ¾ Western Assam has been captured by Bangla Deshi Muslim infiltrators supported by HUJI, IM, ISI & such terror groups. They hoist

IT'S unfortunate that the largest and the oldest plain tribe in Assam with a rich cultural history have found themselves at war with different people from time to time with devastating results for both sides in the conflict. Their leaders would say it is about rights, not alone claim over land and local resources. “It is not land issue alone. It is deprivation on several fronts. Our areas remain underdeveloped,” All Bodo Students’ Union (ABSU) president Pramod Boro told Firstpost from Kokrajhar over telephone. He would not admit that Bodos are prone to picking up fights. “With the Assamese and Bengali population we have led a fairly peaceful life. In 1996, we had an ethnic clash with the Adivasis. But I believe that it was a third force that ignited the fire between the Santhals and the Bodos,” Boro said. Given the history of conflicts this only appears partial truth. The Bodos have been in fight against Bengalis too though it never escalated to unmanageable levels. The la

How to bring the state to knees. Over the past few weeks a drama has been unfolding in the old Delhi area, where an underground metro station is being constructed. During the digging, a part of an old wall was discovered. Even before the Archaeological Survey of India could test and verify the area, the Muslims, led by MLA Shoaib Iqbal took over the place, declaring it to be the Akbarabadi Masjid, demolished by the British following the 1857 uprising. He even led the last Friday prayers there. Now, a new mosque is under construction there. All this with absolutely no confirmation from the ASI on the veracity of the claim. In Jungpura, South Delhi, an unauthorized mosque located in a land owned by DDA was brought down a few months ago. What followed that was mayhem, with Samajwadi Party, the proclaimed protector of Muslim interest descending on the crying minority oppression. Chief Minister Shiela Dikshit immediately announced that an alternate site in the vicinity would be

The cow is considered sacred in Hinduism. She is go-Mata, the one who should be worshipped for the various graces she bestows on humanity. The Hindu legends invariably treat the cow as sacred. Even some of the Muslim kings who ruled India decided to impose a ban on their subjects eating beef as it was considered offensive to the majority Hindus who revered the cow. Fair. In August, the government of India decided to introduce a bill banning the sale of beef across India. Several reasons including a constitutional directive, economy and religious sentiments were cited as the reasons for the same. There was immediate protest, as many of the BJP's own allies in parliament objected saying that they were not consulted. Sale of beef is already banned in many states in the country. The main opposition party, Congress, is divided on the issue as some of its chief ministers would like to see a ban imposed, if nothing else, for one-upping the BJP. Several states in India on the othe

After the CNN-IBN & Cobrapost expose on the black money in Bollywood, Team Anna member Kiran Bedi tweeted out her reaction, questioning whether black money is the reason why Bollywood did not support the Anna movement.   Bedi tweeted, “Is Bollywood, Dirtywood or Blackwood? Was that the main reason this ‘Wood’ did not come out in support of Anna‘s movement despite requests?”    Popular film directors and producers were caught on camera discussing how to use black money in Bollywood. Ra.One director Anubhav Sinha was caught explaining how one can become a ghost producer for his films. Well known producer Vashu Bhagnani, producer of films like Coolie No.1 and Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, was also discussing the same.   Reacting to this, Bedi further tweeted, “this much money is on record. How much cash is stashed only God knows. Nature will have its own way to recover!”   When a follower asked her on Twitter why she needs the support of Bollywood, when she is calling it ‘Dirtywood’,

Furious that two of their panchayat members had been arrested, villagers in Uttar Pradesh's Baghpat region on July 13,2012 beat up two policemen investigating the panchayat's 'Taliban' diktat banning women from using cell phones, going to the market or walking unescorted.   The policemen, who had arrested two panchayat members, had gone to Asaara village in Baghpat, about 450 km from here, after senior officials took cognizance of the diktat and dispatched a team to probe the matter.   The policemen were brutally attacked and their motorcycle set on fire, said an official, adding that the villagers fled after freeing the arrested panchayat members.    According to Inspector General of Police (Law & Order) Badri Prasad Singh, the ruling of the panchayat was not just unfair to women but also unconstitutional.   "The guilty would be brought to book and punished," Badri Prasad told IANS. He added that strict action would be taken against those who attacke

India has produced several proof and evidences to substantiate the fact that Pakistan government, ISI and Pakistan army was involved in most of terror attacks in India including attach on Parliament and terror attack in Mumbai.   India has held several round of dialogues during last two decades with various dignitaries of Pakistan to convince the realities of terror attacks to the Pakistan government and always failed .Pakistan has consistently used not only Pakistan based terrorists organizations but also used India based anti –national elements to destabilize India, to create pro-Muslim environment, to promote Hindu-Muslim riots, to enhance Muslim’s representation in Parliament, state assemblies, army and all administrative offices and to disturb harmonic relation among various communities living in India.   As a matter of fact, Indian government is not seriously interested to punish persons of Muslim community found guilty of terror attack because of its malicious purpose to enha

क्या आपने कभी सोचा है कि कोई मुलायम या कोई मायावती समय-समय पर यूपीए की तरफ दोस्ती का हाथ क्यों बढ़ाते रहते हैं? या अपमान के बावजूद क्यों करुणानिधि को यूपीए के साथ ही खड़ा होना पड़ता है. या यूपीए ममता बनर्जी के अलावा हर किसी को आसानी से कैसे मना लेता है? इसका जवाब केंद्र सरकार के सीबीआई पर जबरदस्त मनचाहे नियंत्रण में निहित है, जिसे सभी को ब्लैकमेल करने के लिए इस्तेमाल किया जा सकता है, ममता जैसे दुर्लभ अपवादों के अलावा.    चलिए कुछ मामलों पर नजर डालते हैं. वाईएसआरसी अध्यक्ष वाई.एस. जगमोहन रेड्डी ने कांग्रेस पर आरोप लगाया कि उसने अपने राजनैतिक प्रतिद्वंदी को परेशान करने के लिए सीबीआई को हथियार बनाया. वाई.एस. जगमोहन रेड्डी की पत्नी वाई.एस. भारती के स्वामित्व वाले साक्षी टीवी चैनल ने घंटे भर का कार्यक्रम दिखाकर सोनिया और राहुल गांधी बदनाम किया. इसके बाद सीबीआई ने जगमोहन रेड्डी पर आय से ज्यादा संपत्ति का आरोप लगाया और कई धाराओं में उन पर मुकदमा दर्ज किया. यूपी की पूर्व मुख्यमंत्री मायावती का मामला भी ऐसा ही था. 2007 में ताज हेरिटेज कॉरिडोर मामले में क्लीनचिट पाने के बाद मायावती ने यूपीए स

SOMNATH TEMPLE 725 AD: The Arab governor of Sindh attacked and destroyed the Somnath temple in Gujarat. 1024 AD: The rebuilt Somnath Temple is destroyed by Mahmud Ghazni. 1296 AD: Somnath Temple is once again destroyed, this time by Allauddin Khilji. 1375 AD: The temple is again destroyed by Muzaffar Shah I, the Sultan of Gujarat. 1451 AD: Doom comes again as the restored temple is destroyed by Mahmud Begda, the Sultan of Gujarat. 1701 AD: Somnath temple is destroyed by Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb who built a mosque on the site of the temple. Queen Ahilyabai Holkar of Indore rebuilt the temple in 1783 AD at a site adjacent to the ruined temple which was already converted to a mosque. (source: wikipedia) This is the reality of Hindu Terror. That it doesn’t exist. The Somnath Temple was destroyed six times. And six times the Hindus rebuilt it and the last time they built it, they didn’t touch the mosque which stood at the original site of the temple.

Despite leads, the NIA has failed to achieve any breakthrough in the 'Hindu terror' cases. Vicky Nanjappa tells you why.   It is a fact that the acts of terrorism from Nanded to Malegaon were all inter-linked. Although a different set of individuals carried out the attacks, the fact remains that the entire operation emerged from one module.   The National Investigation Agency has ascertained that the ammunition for the blasts in Nanded, Modasa, Samjautha Express, Ajmer, Malegaon and Mecca Masjid in Hyderabad were all procured from Mhow in Madhya Pradesh.   The NIA has many suspects in custody; but there are others who are absconding. It has been almost a year since the NIA was handed over the charge for the above mentioned cases, but there appears to be something wrong with the manner in which the probe is taking place as there is no concrete breakthrough yet.   The NIA probe into cases involving 'Hindu extremists' went wrong from day one. The Nanded blasts, which

Uttar Pradesh cannot easily dodge off its tarnished distinction of persistent criminality even in Akhilesh Yadav’s rule. UP is the most criminal state for yet another year according to the latest data of the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB). About a third of all crimes in India occurred in Uttar Pradesh in 2011, accounting for the highest number of violent crimes and murders, as well as crimes against scheduled castes and tribes, kidnapping, abduction and dowry deaths. UP accounted for 33.4 percent of total crime reported in country during 2011 followed by Tamil Nadu (11.5 percent), Andhra Pradesh (7.2 percent) and Karnataka (6.7 percent). Further, it accounted for 22.8 percent of total crimes against Scheduled Castes (7,702 cases) of the total 33,719 cases reported in the country followed by Rajasthan (15.4 percent), Andhra Pradesh (11.9 percent) and Bihar (10.7 percent). While the crime rate in Andhra declined remarkably from 13.9 percent to 7.2 percent, the rate in Tami

ACCUSING the media of a conscious effort at vilification of Narendra Modi, senior BJP leader L K Advani on Sunday said that no political leader in India's history has been as "systematically and viciously maligned" as the Gujarat chief minister.    "I have often felt that in India's political history no leader has been as systematically and viciously maligned as Gujarat CM Narendra Bhai Modi. Do not these reports also reveal a conscious effort at vilification?" Advani asked.    He was referring to media reports on former President A P J Abdul Kalam's book 'Turning Points' where he discusses his visit to the state after the 2002 riots.   Writing on his blog, Advani said that he was surprised to see reports in the media where then Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee "was being found fault with for trying to protect the Narendra Modi government".    Advani said Vajpayee's casual query to Kalam: "Do you consider going to

Having invited comparisons with Mayawati's extravagant ways, UP chief minister Akhilesh Yadav on Wednesday reversed his decision to allow all legislators to purchase four-wheelers worth up to Rs 20 lakh by dipping into their local area development fund. Akhilesh had proposed a car for each MLA up to Rs 20 lakh from the legislators’ discretionary development funds. While speaking at the end of the discussion on the 2012-13 state budget, he thanked the MLAs for the passage of the budget and as a token of thanks declared that every MLA would be allowed to buy a car costing up to Rs 20 lakh from this fund. But this is the second time in three weeks that Akhilesh has been forced to revoke his decision within 24 hours. Just last month, he withdrew his order of shutting down malls and shops at 7pm to tackle the power crisis. Akhilesh said "I take back the decision. The reason for this is that most of the MLAs have decided not to take the offer after media criticism," repor
