The Present situation in India:
I hear from all around people
saying, we are living in difficult times.
There is a spectrum of fear among many people.
The sings of the difficult times.[1]
ONE: “Tod phod ki Sarkar”: Elections being undermined: People may
elect any party with majority seats but it is BJP that will form the
government.
In 2008 BJP did not get
clear majority in the state assembly. To
make good Yeddyurappa got the legislators from other parties who resigned from
their respective parties and through byelections got elected under BJP banner
to consolidate his majority in the assembly.
This was the beginning of what is called “Operation Lotus”.
In Goa Congress was the largest party elected to the
assembly. But BJP brought the
legislators from the Congress Party and formed the Government.
In Manipur too BJP followed the similar tactics formed the
government.
The present government in Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra
are again the governments with stolen mandate.
In Karnataka the congress party in alliance with JDS formed a
government with clear majority and Mr. Kumaraswamy became the chief
minister. But soon after the BJP managed
to get several legislators from the Congress party and Janata Dal Secular party
and brought down the government elected by the people and installed the present
BJP government.
In Madhya Pradesh BJP managed to make Jyotiraditya Scindia to
cross over from the congress party to BJP.
He came out with thirty legislators and brought down Kamal Nath’s
government and put in place BJP government with discredited Mama, Shivraj Singh
Chouhan as the chief minister.
There were some feeble attempts made by the BJP to sponsor the
discontent of Sachin Pilot’s revolt to bring down the Rajasthan government. But Ashok Gehlot’s political skill and Farooque
Abdullah’s advise to Pilot this did not happen.
In Maharashtra BJP and Shiv Sena was in alliance in the state
election. BJP had promised that Uddhav
Thakare would be made the chief Minister.
But after the results were out BJP refused to make a Shiv Sena person
(Uddhav Thakar) the chief minister.
Uddhav Thakare, then aligned with the Nationalist Congress Party and
Indian National congress and formed the government. Uddhav Thakare was made the
chief minister.
BJP spit the Shivsena party with the help of Eknath Shinde and
brought down the Maharastra Vikas Aghadi government. Eknath Shinde was given the chief
ministership and Devendra Fadnavis was made a deputy chief minister.
Today this government is under the threat of Supreme Court’s
possible judgement declaring the Shinde’s vote of confidence null and
void. If this happens then Eknath
Shinde’s government could come crashing down.
Eknath Shinde not only broke Shiva sena party he also went against the anti-defection
law. The anti defection law that mandates trust vote cannot
be taken with the disqualified legislators and no government can be formed with
the disqualified legislator.
In the three big states, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra
BJP did not form the government by winning elections.. Uttar Pradesh and
Uttarakhand are the only two governments wherethe BJP had clear mandate and
formed the governments.
In the rest of India Kerala, Tamilnadu, Andhra Pradesh,
Telangana, Orissa, Bhihar, West Bengal, Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh there are non-BJP
governments.
TWO: The spectrum of Hindutva is looming large.
There is a talk of amending the constitution to bring in line
with One religion, one government. The
government wants to decide what its citizens should eat and wear. Education is also attacked in the name of
Hindutwa. There are sections of the
syllabus are removed from the school and college text books.
Minorities are targeted:
Since BJP has come to power directly or indirectly the minorities
such as Muslim and Christians are persecuted.
The cow vigilantes have attacked number of people with the suspicion of
either carrying or possessing beef. Just
because they are Muslims without making any enquiry, they are attacked and
killed. In many cases they did not
possess beef.
A dairy farmers had bought dairy animals and was transporting
these to their homes. They were
intercepted, attacked and killed.
Many places of worship of the Christians were vandalized and
desecrated in many parts of the country.
In the name of ‘Ghar vapasi’ huge number of Dalit and Adivasi Christians
were attacked and forcefully converted to Hindu religion.
An attempt to eliminate the
opposition:
Earlier Narendra Modi gave a slogan, “Congress Mukt Bharat”. This
was quite a mighty slogan. The
implication of the slogan goes long and deep.
India won freedom from the British under the leadership of Congress
Party. Congress initiated the process of
formed a constituent assembly by bringing together all sections of the people
of India to draft the constitution of India.
It is Dr. Baba Saheb Ambedkar’s leadership the draft document of the
constitution was present in the constituent assembly. In the freedom struggle and in the
constitution of Indian state the Hindu fundamentalists (Hindutwas proponents)
did not figure. Rashtriya Swayam Seveks (RSS) and their leaders
(Golwalkar, Heggadegar, Shama Prasad Mukhergi) did not agree with the
secular nature of the state and they opposed it vehemently. Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated in the
process as he was seen as soft on the Muslims.
When Modi gives a call for “Congress mukht Bharat” he would like
to eliminate not only the congress party but also the entire history of freedom
struggle and the formation of democratic, secular and socialist state of India.
Now from “Congress Mukt Bharat” Modi is moving towards
“Opposition Mukt Bharat”. This is
clearly visible from the way Enforcement Directorate and Central Bureau of
Investigation is chasing after the members of the opposition parties. Manish Sisodia, Satyendra Jain of the APP are
in jail over the excise policy. They are
languishing in jail. They tried to
target Sanjay Raut of Shiv sena. But finally they had to release him for lack
of evidence of any wrong doing. They
have targeting Tejaswi Yadav of RJD party and deputy chief minister of
Bihar. They even tried to get Sharad
Pawar of NCP. Mr. D.K. Shivkumar, the
president of Karnataka Pradesh president, had to experience the torture of ED
for several years.
But on the contrary the politicians of the BJP are not the target
of the ED or CBI. In Karnataka one
minister and his son was found with huge amount of bribe money. No enquiry was
made. Mr. Eshwarappa of the BJP was
accused of 40% commission on the government work given to the contractors. This issue came out after one contractor
committed suicide citing Eshwarappa’s demand for 40% commission to be the cause
of his extreme step.
But if the tented politicians join BJP then all their cases would
be swashed. Suvendu Adhikari, Mamata
Bannerji’s right hand person, while in the Trinamool party was accused of
corruption. But moment he joined BJP his charges were dismissed. BJP was hoping to win West Bengal with his
help. He defeated Mamata with a margin
of one digit number votes but BJP could not shake the Trinamool Congress from
the power in West Bengal. Mukul Roy is
another person who has been under the scanner of CBI and ED. He joined BJP. After Mamata won the election he returned to
Trinamool Congress. But he takes turns
to be in BJP and in Trinamool party.
BJP tried to catch Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi under the
National Herald case. After repeated attempts
neither ED nor CBI were to find any wrong doing.
Finally, Modi and BJP has succeeded in getting at Rahul
Gandhi. After his massively successful
Bharat Jodi Yatra during which he gave innumerable press conferences. During the Yatra, he raised the people’s
issues like unemployment, price rise, social inequality favouring Gowtham Adani
and his favours to him. Rahul had become
a source of anxiety to Modi’s government.
They tried to disrupt the Yatra by compromising the security
arrangements. When he reached Kashmir
the security for the Yatra had almost disappeared. Only when the congress party raised this
issue that the security was restored.
“His Yatra has been getting next to no attention on electronic media,
which are almost entirely beholden to the BJP, an extremely rich entity that
also commands a vast IT cell, and it is getting title print media
attention.”(N. Jayaram)
In the Parliament Rahul Gandhi gave a historic speech. He asked Modi questions on his relationship
with Gowtham Adani. Every time Modi went
on his foreign tour he was accompanied by Adani or soon after Modi returned
from his foreign tour Gowtham Adani was visiting that country. Shri Lanka government has stated that it was
under the pressure from Mr. Modi they had to give its electricity generation
project to Gowtham Adani. Bangladesh
electricity project was also given to Adani.
Adani would mine coal from Jharkhand Adivasi area by displacing the Adivasis
with little or no rehabilitation package.
There was a direct response from the Modi government to Rahul
Gandhi, in the form of reviving a defamation case filed in Surat. In 2019 Rahul Gandhi had given a speech in
Kolar of Karnataka. He had said Lalit Modi is a thief, Nirav Modi is a thief,
Narendra Modi is a thief. How come all
the thieves have Modi as a common surname?
And if you search you may find some more who will have Modi after their
names.
One Purnesh Modi filed a defamation case against Rahul
Gandhi. Parvesh was not in a most
remotely connected to this remark. Since
Rahul Gandhi did not appear before the court and Purnesh had to regularly
attend the case, he decided to get a stay on this case from Gujarat high
court. The matter came to rest
there. But as soon as Rahul Gandhi gave
his speech in the Parliament Purnesh Modi was asked to go to the Gujarat high
court to restart the case against Rahul Gandhi.
The case went on under a new judge with supersonic speed and Rahul
Gandhi was convicted. He was fined with
Rs. 15,000.00 and two years’ imprisonment. Two years jail in such case is the
maximum sentence to be given. No one in
the history of India was served such a strong sentence for defamation. He was also given thirty days to file an
appeal. As soon as he received the sentence with a lightning speed he ws
disqualified from the Parliament and he was asked to vacate the bungalow he was
staying for past eighteen years before 21st of April. When Rahul went to the session court his plea
was dismissed by a judge who was a lawyer of Amit Shah.
Modi is in no way a name of any backward class. There are many people, Parsis, Muslims and
traders by name Modi.
The dismissal of Rahul Gandhi from the Parliament, (through a
process of law) has not only shut the mouth of Rahul Gandhi but also the
opposition at large.
The hind side of this is that the disqualification of Rahul
Gandhi from the Parliament has brought together the opposition parties, such as
AAP, Trinamool Congress who were not inclined to do business with Congress
party, in the fold of Opposition Unity.
There is still a demand from the opposition parties for a joint
Parliamentary enquiry into the affairs of Adani and the Hindenburg report. The
Second half of the budget session was washed out by non-other that the members
of the treasury benches who are actually responsible to see that the house runs
smoothly.
Rahul Gandhi throughout his Bharat Jodo Yatra was giving a call
to the people “Daro mat”. Probably
following this line people are becoming outspoken.
Satyapal Milk’s revelation:
Satyapal Malik is a member of Bhartiya Janaka Dal Party. He was the governor of Kashmir from August
2018 to October 2019. During his tenure
the special status of Jammu and Kashmir was revoked on 5th August, 2019. In his recent interview to the Wire, with
Karan Thapar, had made several interesting revelations.
1. Phulwama attack where
forty javans were martyred. A convoy of
vehicles were carrying Indian security personnel on the Jammu-Srinagar national
highway was attacked by a vehicle borne suicide bomber at Lethapora in Phulwama
district. Forty CRPF Jawan were killed.
The CRPF had requested for four jet planes to transfer the Javans to
Srinagar. But this request was denied by
the then Home minister Rajnath Singh.
Secondly the vehicle involved in the suicide attack was making rounds in
the area for three days loaded with 350 kg of RDX exploitive.
2. In conversation with the Prime Minister Narendra Modi Satya Pal
Malik pointed out that “it was a mistake on our part not to have provided the
jet planes to carry the Javan to Srinagar.
Secondly it was a gross intelligence failure not to have anticipated
this attack, inspite of the vehicle with RDX was making rounds in the area of
attack. To this, Satyapal Malik says,
Modi told him to keep his mouth shut.
Similarly, Ajit Doval, National Security adviser, too phoned him up to
say he should keep his mouth shut. By
this way Narender Modi could use this incident in his 2019 election campaign,
which he did and got a name for a true defender of the nation against Pakistan.
3. Another important revelation he made was from his experience he
has seen that Narendra Modi is not too much concerned about corruption. It is proved by one incident in Goa and
another incident in Jammu and Kashmir related to the Reliance Insurance, where
Ram Madhav and Modi would give Rs. 300 crores to Satyapal Malik to implement the
project.
4. The third thing he revealed was that his access to the president
of India Mrs. Droupadi Murmu was blocked by the Prime minister’s office.
After these revelations by Satya Pal Malik the youth have come on
the Delhi Road demanding security to him as his life is in danger. This was responded only by CBI calling Satya
Pal Malik for enquiry.
