THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COMPANY THAT ANNA HAZARE KEEPS


http://www.vijayvaani.com/FrmPublicDisplayArticle.aspx?id=1721

The company that Hazare keeps

Krishen Kak

10 Apr 2011

Recently, the front pages of the Indian news media have been saturated
with Anna Hazare’s “fast-unto-death” against corruption in the Indian
polity. Hazare is described as a Gandhian – the politics and morality
of the Gandhian fast is another story; this one is about the company
this Gandhian keeps.



“India Against Corruption” (IAC) is Anna Hazare’s address for his
letter dt. 6/4/11 to the Prime Minister, and is therefore presumably
the prime mover of this fast-unto-death. IAC describes itself as “an
expression of collective anger of people of India against corruption”.
 Those who started it include, besides Hazare himself, spiritual
leaders Swami Ramdev and Sri Sri Ravishankar, religious leader
Archbishop Vincent Concessao, a politician in the guise of a religious
leader Swami Agnivesh, and three notables usually described as civil
society activists: Kiran Bedi, Mallika Sarabhai, Arvind Kejriwal. In
addition, “notable participants” include another now-notorious civil
society activist, Medha Patkar.



Agnivesh has his own websites, his own political party, and is a
“self-titled Arya Samaj scholar”. He has under his saffron robe the
Rajiv Gandhi National Sadbhavana Award, the Right Livelihood Award,
and the Rev. M.A. Thomas National Rights Award. He describes himself
as “the most distinguished leader of the Arya Samaj” though this has
been questioned, as has his fascination for Mother Teresa, his
infatuation for Mother Sonia (“only light of hope of spirituality at
end of dark tunnel”), and his unabashed admiration for Islam and
Pakistan.



Kiran Bedi’s service record was actually far from distinguished; she
was professionally unreliable and untrustworthy; deserted her post
more than once; and expected favouritism because she was a woman
officer. She excels at public and media relations and, over the years,
picked up a Magsaysay award and awards from the American Federation of
Muslims of Indian Origin, the Don Bosco Shrine, the Mother Teresa
Memorial National Award for Social Justice, and other such assorted
goodies. The Hindu (Delhi) on its front page on 6/4/11 had a picture
of Bedi carefully situating right next to the fasting-unto-death Anna
Hazare a placard that announced “bhrashtachar ko khatm karo -
www.jnss.in”.



JNSS is the Jagruk Nagrik Suraksha Sangathan (National President: Mr
Denson Joseph). It proclaims itself nationalist and anti-terrorist and
“salutes and supports the efforts of all agencies working hand in hand
to secure the nation”. These agencies are the Home Ministry, the Delhi
Police, BSF, NSS, CISF, and the United Nations! It solicits donations
- but nowhere on its website does it give its accounts. Prominent with
Hazare when he began his fast were “Arvind Kejriwal along with Mallika
Sarabhai and Magsaysay award winner Sandeep Pandey”, and “famous
former top cop Kiran Bedi said all the activists present there would
be on a day-long hunger strike, but Hazare would continue his fast
till the Government agrees to our demands.”



Accused of cheating by dancers who filed a complaint against her,
Mallika Sarabhai declared “neither the country nor its people for whom
I have spent 25 years working deserve me”. Indians and India don’t
deserve Sarabhai, but does Sarabhai deserve India? How much in those
25 years was not motivated by her desire for profit or for her own
greater glory? I can personally testify to the desperation with which
the dancing-Sarabhais sought government sponsorship and recognition.
There are thousands upon thousands of jawans who are far greater
patriots than her - and don’t boast about it. They are prepared to die
for the country that Sarabhai wanted to flee because her
fellow-dancers accused her of cheating them. Why did her most vocal
defenders not include any of her dancer peers? Was this because,
within the dancer sorority, they were aware there was more to the
Sarabhai publicly-cultivated image than met the eye?



Was she not, through this particular contract that was challenged by
the dancers, peddling to them her saleability? Was she not touting her
own brand image to introduce them - on payment by them to her or her
organization - to foreign audiences that they could not have managed
on their own? If (according to The Pioneer, Nov 2, 2003) 13 dancers
complained about her, had she not netted from them a cool Rs. 2.60
lakhs for not taking them abroad!? And, if they felt cheated because
she took their money - but not them - and she claimed she acted
according to the terms of the contract, why should they not challenge
those terms? “…there is hardly any doubt that daal mein kuchh kala
hai, that something fishy has been happening over sending dance
troupes to the US by Ms Sarabhai’s academy”, wrote Chandan Mitra. As
it is kala in the daal of Mapin Publishing (co-founded by her and her
ex-husband and with which apparently she still is associated) that
welshes on its word and its payments (cases known personally to me).



Medha Patkar has the Right Livelihood Award, the Rev. M.A. Thomas
National Human Rights Award, Amnesty International’s Human Rights
Defender’s Award, and the BBC’s Green Ribbon Award for Best
International Political Campaigner. Her Narmada Bachao Andolan is
described as a “social movement”. Presumably this social movement
handles money, if only for its own expenses. But the Supreme Court has
noted the NBA is not a registered entity. So how does it bank its
money? How does it account for its expenses? The NBA, which has
international connections, does not seem to have its own website.
Foreign sources funded its support groups. Accused of faking medical
certificates, fined more than once for dodging court hearings, Patkar
is now accused by the Supreme Court itself of filing a false affidavit
before it.



Magsaysay awardee Sandeep Pandey and his Asha for Education have a
full chapter to themselves in theVigil book that details their magic
of making foreign money disappear after it reaches them, their allergy
to professional accounting, and (in the book’s Appendix 12) his
blatant lying to the Deccan Chronicle.



Now, India Against Corruption solicits donations. But it doesn’t
solicit them in its own name.  It solicits money in the name of the
Public Cause Research Foundation (PCRF). In other words, the money you
donate for IAC’s work actually goes into PCRF’s pocket. Guess who set
up and runs PCRF? Arvind Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia and Abhinandan
Sekhri, started with the Magsaysay money to Kejriwal. It is not clear
from its website under what law it is registered, but it was filing a
tax return in Form ITR 7 and claiming s.80G exemption.



Let us look at Public Cause Research Foundation’s accounts:



1.        For FY 2006-2007, PCRF reported Rs 51,434/- as utilized for
charitable purposes - though actually all this was was entirely
office/admn. expenses. It reported an opening corpus fund of Rs
13,01,000/- and a closing corpus fund of Rs 12, 49,566. In other
words, it utilized its corpus fund solely for routine office/admn.
expenses.



2.       For FY 07-08, PCRF reported Rs.6,31,797/- utilized for
charitable purposes - again, actually all this plus another Re. 0.90
was entirely office/admn. expenses (including salaries of Rs
3,26,600/- and legal exp. of Rs 91,209/-).  It reported donations
received of Rs 21,400/-, loans and advances of Rs 2,15,000/-, and a
closing corpus fund of Rs 14,49,168.10/-. Its corpus fund statement as
on 31/3/08 showed for “specific corpus fund” an opening balance on
1/4/07 of Rs 1,000/- only and an addition during the year of Rs
8,10,000/-. And as “nonspecific corpus fund”, an opening balance of Rs
12,48,566/-. The loan of Rs 2,15,000/- was “Kabir Loan 200,000.00” and
“Loan to Parivartan (Mangal surat) 15,000/-”.



3.       The Parivartan is presumably Kejriwal-Sisodia’s Parivartan.
Kabir appears to be the registered society “spun off of Parivartan”.
Founder-member Manish Sisodia is also its “Chief Functionary”; Kabir’s
governing body includes Arvind Kejriwal. Though founded in 1999,
Kabir’s website reports no financial details.



4.       For the year ending 31/3/09, PCRF omits the ITR scans, the
corpus fund is now Rs 31,51,416/-, the loans and advances are Rs
2,46,274/-, and the office and admn. expenses are Rs 8,10,078.10/-. No
donations are reported, and there is no financial information for
after 31/3/09.



5.       Kejriwal’s Parivartan was analysed in the Vigil book. Manish
Sisodia was Parivartan’s founder-member and treasurer. Kejriwal and
Sisodia founded PCRF, Sisodia founded Kabir, and together they
“govern” it. Note the incestuous connections between all these
different agencies actively soliciting money from the public, and note
the opacity of their publicly-declared accounts. Kejriwal was in the
income-tax service. Surely he understands accounting.



6.       Prima facie, your IAC money – which you gave because of
Hazare? - is channeled into Kejriwal-Sisodia’s PCRF and from there
into Kejriwal-Sisodia’s Kabir and possibly Kejriwal-Sisodia’s
Parivartan.

As was asked about Parivartan, “This is transparency? This is
accountability? Something wrong with their maths? Or with their
morals?”



A “triumvirate” of an ex-police officer, an ex-income tax officer and
a very worldly godman publicly abet an old Gandhian’s attempted
suicide, while they themselves have no intention of shuffling off
their mortal coil. Their personal ambitions become apparent, and there
are “sharp differences in movement over spoils” – “both Kejriwal and
Agnivesh can leave if they cannot sink their differences,” said
Hazare.



Here was Hazare fasting-unto-death and Bedi withdrew from the
dharnasthal because of “poor health”! Agnivesh opened his own direct
line to the Congress. Kejriwal declared, “A 73-year-old man is
fasting-unto-death… He is fighting for each one of you and for your
children’s future. This is your last chance…” And then Kejriwal
smartly seized his chance and out-manoeuvred both Bedi and Agnivesh!



Sonia Gandhi’s NAC colleague Aruna Roy is emerging from the woodwork
(yes, this is the same Aruna Roy whose duplicity is detailed in the
Vigil book, and who calls the Indian government “fascist” but has no
qualms sitting at its highest table with the de facto head of this
fascist government to “advise” her and it).

-        “…who will decide who are representatives of civil society
for the joint committee? Anyone and everyone can claim that they are
part of civil society so must be included into this panel to formulate
the Lokpal Bill.”



Of all the “civil society” activists featured here, Kejriwal has
ensured he’s the only one into the joint drafting committee. Thus,
Arvind Kejriwal, of dubious accounting fame, now represents at the
national level our country’s “civil society”.



Anna Hazare demanded “there should be no tainted ministers in the
committee. Asked if there were five untainted ministers in the
government, Hazare said `they should be least tainted’.”



The public official must be “untainted” or, at any rate, “least
tainted”. Fair enough. So, we assume the five ministers named to the
joint drafting committee and accepted by Hazare are untainted or the
least tainted, including Kapil Sibal who publicly castigated the
country’s Comptroller & Auditor General and equally publicly absolved
Spectrum Raja of any wrongdoing!



But, characteristically, what’s sauce for the sarkari goose is never
sauce for these “civil society” ganders.



Of the “triumvirate” that negotiated the joint drafting committee’s
composition, is Arvind Kejriwal really “untainted;” or, of the three,
the “least tainted”? As the primary negotiator on behalf of Hazare,
was it ethical of him that he negotiate his own name? If Justice
Santosh Hegde who is Hazare’s first choice could suggest Justice J.S.
Verma rather than himself as the “ideal person” to be the committee’s
Chair, why could Kejriwal not insist on some other “civil society”
activist for the committee? Was he negotiating for his own inclusion
and/or ensuring the exclusion of Bedi and Agnivesh?



All these so-called civil society activists will be aware of the legal
doctrine of clean hands. Yet, as is amply clear, they demand public
officials have clean hands even as their own hands stink.



Questions arise:



1.        Baba Ramdev has been doing far more to raise popular
awareness against corruption than this lot, yet neither the
English-language mainstream media nor these so-called civil society
activists extended to him the “civil society” support they extended to
Hazare. Why not?



2.       None of these so-called civil society activists has stood for
popular election, whether State Assembly or Parliament, except Mallika
Sarabhai (and she was roundly trounced by the electorate, losing her
deposit). So, whom do they really represent?



3.       Why does Anna Hazare promote that extra-Constitutional “civil
society” bastion called the National Advisory Council headed by Sonia
Gandhi? He “sought to project that Gandhi and he were on the same page
on the issue of an effective Lokpal Bill”.




4.      Whatever the merit of the cause, is Anna Hazare wittingly or
unwittingly a pawn in the unclean hands of these “civil society”
activists?



5.      Of IAC’s 19 others who “started the movement” with Anna
Hazare, how many and which ones showed up to express solidarity when
he started his “fast-unto-death”? Only four – Agnivesh, Bedi, Sarabhai
and Kejriwal. Why didn’t the other founders join him?



6.      Finally, there will be expenses, if only on the bandobast of
this “fast-unto-death” mela. Who is providing the money? And who is
keeping the accounts?

Any issue fought in the interests of public is seen as cynical by the critics. Whatever said and done, people's anger on one issue, i.e. CORRUPTION, was on forefront and not people! This spread like wildfire, when they saw one clean personality with Gandhian ideology spearheaded the show! There were dissent voices within the group who should be involved in the draft committee. Swami Ramdev raised an issue of having father-son duo in the drafting committee, and also insisted inclusion of Kiran Bedi. Neither Swami Agnivesh nor Kiran Bedi were included for the simple reason that the draft Jan Lokpal Bill was drafted by legal experts (father-son duo), Justice Santosh Hegde and Shri Arvind Kejriwal and the nuances of all the clauses are known to them, therefore, they are there in the committee. If the controversial personalities are here to garner wealth and publicity alone, they would never have participated in civil society activities - they would have got better positions in Corporates or they would have become entrepreneurs! Let's shun pulling legs and move forward!

RSS-BJP Murder Politics Exposed

CPIM.org

The recent bout of violence in Kannur district was unleashed by the targeted killings of CPI(M) workers. The murderous politics of the RSS in Kerala is not of recent origin. The RSS began its murder campaign originally as the tool of capitalists and owners who wanted to smash the unions and the working class movement in Kannur. Subsequently, the RSS has spread its murder politics throughout the state. The first fact to be understood is that the RSS has been assassinating CPI(M) workers in different parts of Kerala, though Kannur district has been the concentrated target. The second fact to be noted is that there has been a spurt in the attacks on the CPI(M) since the LDF government came into office in May, 2006. The BJP and the RSS are making the false propaganda that the CPI(M) is resorting to violence against them and getting the protection of the state government. But the opposite is true. Since June 2006, till now, 12 workers and supporters of the CPI(M) have been murdered by the RSS-BJP gangs. Among these 12, two were killed in Thrissur district, two in Palakkad district, one in Kollam district and seven in Kannur district.

That the RSS-BJP stepped up its attacks in the recent months can be seen from the way two CPI(M) members were killed in Malampuzha in Palakkad district. Gopalakrishnan and Raveendran were ambushed on 29 October, 2007 and attacked with lethal weapons. As a result, both of them died on the spot.

 

This was followed by the murders of two CPI(M) workers in Kannur district – Sudhir Kumar and Pavithran – in November, 2007. Sudhir Kumar was killed in Thalassery and Pavithran in Kathiroor. Two more murders occurred in quick succession in the district on January 14 and January 26, 2008. In the first incident, the victim was Dhanesh (aged 24) who was killed with swords while going back to his home. The second murder was of K. P. Jijesh who was killed while returning to his house after attending a marriage. These four murders in Kannur district by the RSS is the background in which the recent bout of violence, in the beginning of March, took place in which two more CPI(M) workers were killed.

CPI(M) Workers Killed in Kannur District

(Since LDF government took office)

 
 ·        June 13, 2006 – Iritty : K. K. Yakoob – he was killed by RSS-BJP men by using deadly weapons and country-made bombs.
 
·        November 5, 2007 – Near Kavumbhagam school, Thalassery : M. K. Sudheer Kumar – he was transporting school students in a van.  His van was stopped by RSS goons and he was killed in front of the school students.
 
·        November  6, 2007 – Namathumukku, Kathiroor, Thalassery : Parayi Pavithran – he was  going to purchase milk. RSS goons attacked him with swords and killed.

·        March 8, 2008 – Puthoor : K. Aneesh – RSS goons attacked with swords and killed near his house.
 
Seven CPI(M) workers were killed by RSS-BJP goons in Kannur district since LDF government took office:That the RSS has been organising the attacks and unleashing its armed goons can be seen from the fact that there have been 12 other incidents of attacks on cadres and Party offices of the CPI(M), in the months of January and February in 2008, a list of which is given below.
 
·        January 6, 2008 – Chundangapoyil, Kathiroor : Five autorickshaws were attacked and destroyed.  CPI(M) workers were attacked and injured from a bus.
 
·        January 6, 2008 – Thalassery North : Local Committee secretary, A. C. Manoj - Bombs were thrown to his house.

·        January 28, 2008 – Padinjattamuri : CPI(M) worker Biju was attacked.
 
·        February 24, 2008 -  Panthakkal : Two Party workers were attacked and wounded.

 

 

The RSS and the BJP in Kerala are a degenerated, vicious anti-Communist force. The RSS in Kerala has in its ranks lumpen anti-socials on hire to kill the CPI(M) and target the minorities. The BJP has been exposed by its own leaders as an outfit which sells its vote to the highest bidder during elections.

RSS men killed Sunil Joshi

Source:Zee news

Dewas (MP): Did RSS men kill Sunil Joshi, the alleged mastermind of the blasts in Ajmer and Hyderabad's Mecca Masjid? The question arose on Friday when the Madhya Pradesh police claimed that it had solved the mystery behind Joshi’s murder.

The police said RSS office-bearer Sunil Joshi was killed by his own workers for mistreating them.

RSS men killed Ajmer blast mastermind?
The police said it had arrested two persons - Vasudev Parmar of Dewas and Anand Raj of Indore – in connection with Joshi’s murder. It also said that Harshad Solanki was in its custody. Solanki was arrested by the Rajasthan ATS for his alleged role in the Ajmer blast case.

According to police, Solanki admitted during interrogation that he had murdered Joshi, as he was not behaving properly.

Five persons were wanted in connection with the murder of Sunil Joshi, who incidentally were also accused in the Ajmer blast case. Two others are absconding.

The trio was produced in the Judicial Magistrate First Class Kamlesh Kumar Soni's court yesterday, which sent Solanki to judicial custody till December 30, while Parmar and Raj were remanded to police custody till December 24.

RSS men killed Ajmer blast mastermind?
Joshi, whose name figured in the Ajmer Dargah blast case, was murdered on December 29, 2007 under mysterious conditions in Dewas.

He is suspected to have recced and planted the bomb at Ajmer and Mecca Masjid.

Joshi was also wanted in connection with the murder of a Congress leader.

RSS men killed while making bombs

Source:DNA India

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Two RSS activists were killed while making crude bombs in Cheruvanchery on Monday morning. One of those killed, K Pradeepan, was awaiting verdict in another blast case in which a girl was injured.

The bomb workshop was adjacent to a temple. The accident occurred when the victims tried to shift the bombs to another place. At least two buckets full of bombs went off simultaneously, causing a powerful blast that shook nearby houses. The victims’ bodies were severely maimed. Pradeepan’s body was fished out of a nearby well.

“We have noticed many such crude bomb making facilities in the locality. We will clamp down on them. We have deputed more personnel in the area,” I-G (north) V Shantaram said.In fact, Pradeepan is one of six accused in another blast case, called the Asna case. He was awaiting court verdict on November 14. Asna, then six years old, lost a leg when a bomb was thrown at her house in September 2000.

The IG hinted that more bombmaking workshops were operating in the area. Locals fear the RSS men were storing explosives for a fresh bout of violence ahead of the verdict.

The CPI(M) was quick to blame the RSS and BJP for turning temples into armouries. “RSS is solely responsible for the accident. The state leadership of the RSS and BJP are trying to instigate violence in Kannur once again,” CPI(M) district secretary P Sasi said. Violence between CPI(M) and BJP workers had left seven people dead in March this year.

"......My Sincere advice to All, First Join RSS for few days, learn them from inside then Comment anything about RSS...."

a). I have seen the RSS drill. The neighbors(people who live near this so called shakhas/camps) told me that these people(rss) continue their drill till late night and start very early morning....they use loudspeakers even to teach a batch of 20, they are such a nuisance.

b). This particular camp had members aged 8 to 30 plus

c). One day the subject of the drill was "how to kill a person". For this, they brought 10 live chickens and asked each of the members to kill it in one stroke. The chicken's two legs will be tied and then it will be placed on a bench. Each member will take the dagger and slam it hard on the neck so that the head and body of the chicken is separated. One child aged around 8 refused to cut, he was slapped on his face by his so called teacher. They then forced him to cut. The child could hardly hold the dagger, some elders pushed the child from behind. Hesitatingly he slammed the dagger and the chicken was half-cut. Blood was oozing from the chicken's neck and child was crying. Elders threatened the child again. He hit the dagger again and this time the chicken's head got somehow separated. Everybody was happy but not that young child. You should see the dangerous, scared look on the face of that boy. There was blood all over his face, his hands and on his shirt.

d). Any child less than the age of say 18, who participates in killing, blood and violence as mentioned above is "destroyed mentally" for life.

e). In the same shakha /camp, another day they were practicing to kill using dogs and cats......People say it is very hard on those days ....to hear the cries of these animals when are knifed.

Many more things like this.... this is what happens in RSS training camps....violence, blood,hatred and kill.....and yet khaitan glorifies the RSS

"...SURNAME 'GANDHI' SHOULD BE BANNED TO BE USED BY ANY POLITICIAN...."

In that case, the following should also be BANNED

a). Political parties using the words "Vande Maataram" and " Bharat Mata ki Jai"...

"...This book is banned by Congress Government)...."

So, nobody knows the true content of the book. This is like Ganesha's idol drinking milk.

"...Pioneer is a established newspaper and perhaps more credible than ur Congress funded ..."

Only RSS funded newspapers are credible. This is what I have been saying all along that they (Sangh Parivaar) will destroy you if you do not agree with them....

"...To talk of Hindu culture would injure India's interests. By education I am an Englishman...."

Going by that scale, Advani ran away from Pakistan but his heart is still in Pakistan, he is a Pakistani.....He went to Pakistan and told them that Jinnah is the MOST secular...will any sensible HINDU say such a thing?

Mr. Rajiv , Pioneer is a established newspaper and perhaps more credible than ur Congress funded newspapers etc, anyway quotation given by   author is from Nehru's letter and it is well known fact that Nehru was against Hinduism , his own long time secretary M.O.Mathai  has written a book based on nehrus famous statement 
"
To talk of Hindu culture would injure India's interests. By education I am an Englishman, by views an internationalist, by culture a Muslim, and I am a Hindu only by accident of birth. "

Jaya tells Maya to oppose Communal Violence Bill

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa has urged her Uttar Pradesh counterpart Mayawati to oppose the Prevention of Communal and Targeted Violence (Access to Justice and Reparations) Bill, 2011. Jayalalithaa says the Bill will give the Centre a handle against states in the name of checking organised communal and targeted violence.

In a letter, Jayalalithaa has said, "As this Bill is another blatant attempt by the Centre to bypass the state governments and concentrate all powers in the Central Government, rendering the State Governments absolutely powerless and totally at the mercy of the centre, and putting the State Governments under constant threat of dismissal, I feel that it should be opposed tooth and nail by all the state governments."

Along with the letter, Jayalalithaa has also sent a copy of a statement, outlining her position on the Bill on behalf of her party AIADMK and as Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu.

"Though it is sought to be made out that the purpose of the law is entirely altruistic, the objective of the Bill is itself vague and left to the realms of speculation. Even a casual reading of the proposed Bill shows that there is more to it than meets the eye," Jayalalithaa said in her statement.

She said the Bill would only promote distrust among various groups and provide the authorities with opportunities to vent their frustration on vulnerable persons or wreak vengeance against any group that is outspoken or critical.

"In short, the remedy sought to be provided against communal and targeted violence is worse than the disease itself," said her statement.

Jayalalithaa described section 20 of the proposed Bill as a direct assault on the autonomy of the states. "This section is against the very spirit of the Constitution and the recommendations of various commissions, including Sarkaria commission which have sought greater autonomy for the states," she said.

According to her, Section 20 states that the occurrence of organised communal and targeted violence would constitute "internal disturbance" within the meaning of Article 355 of the Constitution and this would always hang "like the Sword of Damocles threatening the state governments''.

She said this section particularly gives the impression that it is only the Centre that is greatly concerned about organised communal and targeted violence, while the state governments abet such crime.

Jayalalithaa also objected to the powers given to the proposed National Authority for Communal harmony, Justice and Reparation in the Bill.

"As per the proposed Bill, the National Authority will have powers to inquire or investigate, suo motu or upon information or otherwise in relation to occurrence or likely occurrence of communal and targeted violence. It has overriding powers and functions, including investigation, inquiry into complaints etc., by which it can virtually take over the running of the state governments," she said.

What is Sonia Gandhi hiding?


This is not the first time that the UPA chairperson has quietly gone abroad in a manner best described as being furtive. Why the secrecy? Why create the illusion in the public mind that she is in India when she is not, asks rajinder puri

On Monday, Tamil Nadu chief minister Miss Jayalalithaa visited Delhi. She met her Delhi counterpart Mrs Sheila Dikshit. India’s biggest TV channel blared: “Will Jaya also meet Sonia?” Was the channel unprofessionally ignorant or was it colluding with the exercise to hide the furtive movements of Mrs Sonia Gandhi? Earlier on the same day, there was a statement issued by Mrs Gandhi deploring the murder of a prominent journalist in Mumbai. Was all this being done to create the illusion in the public mind that Mrs Gandhi was in India while she was not? This is not the first time that Mrs Gandhi has silently gone abroad in a manner best described as being furtive. Why the secrecy? What is the purpose of Mrs Gandhi’s undisclosed visits abroad?

An RTI applicant, Mr Ramesh Verma, had sought from the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) details of the foreign visits of the Chairperson of the National Advisory Council (NAC) and Congress president Mrs Sonia Gandhi. The Central Information Commission (CIC) forwarded the application to the PMO. “It seems the Parliamentary Affairs Ministry had informed that the Central government had incurred no expenditure on the foreign visits Sonia Gandhi during the last 10 years,” CIC commissioner Mr Satyananda Mishra has stated. The application to the PMO was received on 26 February, 2010, transferred to the external affairs ministry on 16 March, 2010 and then forwarded to the Parliamentary Affairs Ministry on 26 March, 2010. However, it was not known by the Cabinet secretariat whether the RTI applicant had been provided with the information that was sought. The CIC commissioner criticised the PMO for its casual approach. The PMO did not obtain the information from the appropriate ministry after the query was specifically directed to it.

Congress leaders are frothing at the mouth demanding total transparency from members of civil society. Probes have been launched against some of them. Should not the government display equal transparency pertaining to India’s most powerful politician who is the chairperson of the ruling UPA coalition as well as the chairperson of the government’s NAC? They need to answer the following questions:

Did Mrs Gandhi travel abroad on an airline or by a private jet? If the latter, whose jet was it?
What was the purpose of the foreign visit made by the Chairperson of the NAC and the UPA?
What is the itinerary of the NAC Chairperson? Which countries and cities did she, or will she, visit?

And while they are at it, our worthy Congress leaders may as well also address these ancient and perennial questions:

Why does not the government refute the allegation made by a former member of the Soviet government’s official KGB Commission, confirmed by the official spokesman of the Russian government addressing the media, that the KGB had been donating funds to Mrs. Sonia Gandhi’s family, including her mother, since 1971? Why does the government not demand an apology from the author of the allegation and failing its receipt launch a defamation case against the author and the Russian government?

Why do the government and the Congress party not explain the purpose of the meeting between accused money launderer Hasan Ali and the political secretary of the Congress president, Mr Ahmed Patel, that was investigated and confirmed by Maharashtra police?
The public awaits from Congress leaders Mr Pranab Mukherjee, Mr Digvijay Singh, Mr Kapil Sibal, Mr Chidambaram and the rest, answers to these questions. Transparency, like charity, should begin at home.

'We will rape you, then parade you naked' - Threats from 'Sangh Parivar'

    'Sangh Parivar activists threatened to rape us'
    VIJI SUNDARAM
    INDIAWEST[ THURSDAY, JUNE 30, 2005 10:36:22 AM ]
    http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/a...ow/1156238.cms

    San Francisco-based academic Angana Chatterji, along with other women members of the Indian People's Tribunal on Environment and Human Rights, was allegedly threatened with rape by some members of the Sangh Parivar on June 14 while investigating the spread of communalism and human rights violations in Orissa.

    The women claim they were defamed, insulted and falsely accused of bias as they were deposing residents of Bhubaneswar, some from the Sangh Parivar itself.

    "The Hindu nationalist organizations (Bajrang Dal, Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Rashtriya Sevika Samiti) have maligned and targeted the Tribunal and its members," wrote Chatterji in a letter to India's National Human Rights Commission, calling for an investigation. ". . . Especially, they have continued to directly intimidate and verbally attack me since the incident, as I remain in Orissa for a few days to continue the Tribunal's work."

    The Indian People's Tribunal on Environment and Human Rights was formed June 5, 1993. Its stated purpose is to conduct fair and credible investigations focusing on issues concerning human rights and environmental justice.

    Chatterji said she has been working for the rights of the oppressed in Orissa since 1995.

    The alleged threats came by fax from the state office of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad, lambasting the tribunal as a group of "leftists, fellow travelers and Hindu baiters."

    The fax made a pointed reference to Chatterji, an associate professor of anthropology at the San Francisco-based California Institute for Integral Studies.

    "The inclusion of an NRI well-known for anti-Hindu activities in the US suggests foreign funds from sources bent on destabilizing the country," the fax said.

    Following disclosure of the note, Sangh Parivar members present at the deposition allegedly demanded that tribunal members hand over the taped recordings of testimony they had gathered, else they would forcibly take possession of them.

    Chatterji, who had possession of the tapes, refused, but destroyed the tapes in front of the Parivar members, according to an IPT press release she sent India-West .

    The tribunal members, mostly women, then dispersed, canceling the rest of their planned activities for that day, including a press conference.

    Chatterji said that once outside, Sangh members berated the tribunal, calling it a foreign-funded organization designed to spoil its image. "This is an IPT funded by the foreign funding agencies to tarnish the image of the Hindu Rashtra, and we will rape these women," one of them said, she alleged. "We will parade them naked."

    Two former chief justices in the tribunal, KK Usha and RA Mehta, called the threats "shocking, outrageous and highly deplorable."

    "It is reprehensible," noted Chatterji in her letter to the secretary-general of the NHRC, "that these persons undermined the Indian People's Tribunal, which was founded June 5, 1993, based on a people's mandate to conduct principled investigations that focus on issues of human rights and social and environmental justice."

    In a telephone interview with India-West from Mumbai earlier this week, Chatterji said that she and fellow members of the tribunal want to help the minorities in such places as Orissa and Rajasthan where "there's violence every day" and where there is a "rise in Hindutva."

    "One way it can all be brought to light is by holding inquiries" of the kind the members of the People's Tribunal are doing, Chatterji said.

    She told a reporter that after the June 14 incident, she received an anonymous call that warned her that "if I did not behave like a woman should, I would be raped, murdered, then cut into pieces, and no one would know how it happened."

    Following the incident, a number of political activists and other groups protested the threats and demanded a prompt investigation. The All India Democratic Women's Association-Orissa and the Communist Party of India (Marxist) condemned the incident.

    Called for a comment, Gaurang Vaishnav, general secretary of the VHP-America, told India-West that he wasn't aware of the Orissa incident, but since "Angana Chatterji's credentials are so suspect" and "with her long history of being anti-RSS, I won't believe all that she says."

    "Looking at what she has done to Hindus, it's very clear that she's not a person whom I'd trust," he asserted.

    The outspoken Kolkata-born Chatterji was in the forefront of the successful U.S. campaign to stop Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi from coming to the US last March, a move that earned her the ire of the VHP. She said she has been working with advocacy research in Orissa since 1995, making two trips a year to India for this purpose.

    The literacy rate in the impoverished state of Orissa, whose population is 37 million, is below the national level of 65 percent, with only 34 percent of women literate.

    According to news reports, in recent years, the Sangh Parivar has been trying to bring back into the Hindu fold the tribals and so-called untouchables who embraced Christianity or Islam with hopes for a better life.

    Mohammed Khan, Maryland-based national coordinator of the Indian Muslim Council-USA, said that his group has been touch with Chatterji via e-mail, and that she had gone to India to assist in the "human rights situation" in Orissa. The IMC coordinated the efforts of those who campaigned against Modi's proposed visit to the U.S.

    "I have to commend her courage" for doing what she believes in, Khan said.

    Rasheed Ahmed, vice president IMC-USA, said in a press release: "The poor in India have little or no access to the courts, and the costs involved are prohibitive. Through the process of investigations by Peoples Tribunal, victim communities have the opportunity to voice their grievances."

    Last week, in an open letter sent to Chatterji's boss at the California Institute of Integral Studies, endorsed by 469 members of a newly formed group called Citizens Insisting on Integrity in Scholarship (a name formed by using the first letters of the school's name), one person wrote: "Angana Chatterji comes from a long line of pseudo-secularists who have learnt to farm the fear of minority communities for their own personal advancement."

    Another called her "a hate-mongering communist," while yet another said: "The California Institute of Integral Studies has been the center of political propaganda in the name of 'anthropological activism' for quite some time."

Gangrape in Modirashtra: Sangh Parivar Stands Indicted

February 25, 2008
by subhash gatade kafila.org

What is a Chief Minister supposed to do if victim of a gangrape and her batchmates – who have similarly faced assault at the hands of the rapists – and their parents come to meet him to seek strict action in the case which has rocked the entire state ?

Courtesy demands that the chief minister spares time and at least meet the victim and formally tell them that ‘no guilty would be spared’.But when it comes to Narendra Modi, all such courteous behaviour, it appears is just a waste of time.

The latest case of gangrape in a Primary Teachers Training Colleg (PTC) in Patan, 130 kms from Ahmedabad, by her own teachers is a case in point.

It is being reported that the high profile CM of Gujarat did not deem it necessary to meet the victim because of his otherwise ‘busy schedule’.

The reasons for his non-meeting the victim are not far to seek.

In fact the exposure of this case had rather brought out the naked reality of the much tom-tommed ‘vibrant Gujarat’ before the masses. It was the time when media was singing paens to the ‘dynamic leadership’ of Modi who had ‘vanquished his opponents’ inside and outside the party. It was the time when he was anointed no 2 in the BJP hierarchy at the national level and the BJP president asked other CMs of his party to follow the ‘Modi model’.

The manner in which the whole case came to light – and has shocked the saffron regime – was rather unexpected for Mr Modi.

In fact once the matter spilled over beyond the confines of the four walls of the college, the anger of the Patan residents against the whole episode knew no bounds.The whole town remained closed for two consecutive days to demand prompt action against the guilty. Angry residents of Patan city took out a massive rally, which saw the participation of more than 25,000 people, to demand action against the six teachers. Apart from Patan, most of the major towns and cities in Gujarat witnessed similar rallies in support of the dalit girl victim.

The media in general and the Gujarati media in particular deemed it necessary to bring into focus facts relating to the case.And definitely they were not at all soothing for Mr Modi. It duly reported that, the alleged rapists – the six teachers in the Primary Teachers Training College – namely Manish Parmar, Suresh Patel, Ashwin Parmar, Kiran Patel, Atul Patel and Narendra Patel – are close to Ms Anandiben Patel, who herself is a close confidant of Mr Narendra Modi himself. A section of the media also reported that Atul Patel – the ringleader of the these rapist teachers – was election agent for Ms Anandiben Patel in 2002 elections. The importance of Ms Anandiben Patel in the government can be gauged from the fact that she was awarded the much cherished after revenue department after the recent elections to the assembly.

It also came to light that the PTC in question which was meant for girls had only a single lady teacher. This sole lady teacher Bharatiben Patel, who was earlier shifted/ transferred out of the college as she had reported to higher autorities similar cases of misdemenour by her own colleagues in the college. It was significant that Ms Anandiben Patel handled the education department during that period.It was also discussed in the media, how the system of internal markings had become a weapon in the hands of such teachers to abuse and brutalise the girl students in other PTC colleges as well. (There are 134 such ‘girls only’ PTC colleges all over the state where 16,000 girl students were undergoing the two year residential course.)And how a insensitive administration slept over earlier demands raised by concerned citizens to not only remove the system of internal markings but also take serious action in earlier cases of sexual assault in colleges.

Perhaps the other no less shocking aspect of the case ( at least as far as Mr Modi was concerned ) is that it happened in Patan, the new venue of the official celebrations for 15 th August since last few years. The shifting of the official venue to Patan was then seen as a shrewd move by Mr Modi, to connect himself to the historic legacy of the Rajput kings which ruled from Gujarat for a considerable period of time.

It is now part of public memory that the sexual exploitation of the hapless Dalit girl continued for around six months wherein she has been raped 14 times by these six teachers.The matter came to light only because she fainted during prayers on 31 st January.

Digvijay alleges Sangh Parivar's role in nuns' rape
PRESS TRUST OF INDIA  
GUNA, Sept 30: The rape of four nuns in Jhabua district recently could be the result of a ``well-thought out strategy'' of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP), Bajrang Dal and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), Chief Minister Digvijay Singh has alleged.

Talking to reporters last night at his native town Raghogarh about 40 kms from here, Singh said an investigation should be conducted to find out whether these organisations were behind the incident.

Alleging that the organisations like RSS believed in fascist way of functioning, Singh said similar incidents had taken place in neighbouring Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh.

Meanwhile, the All India Democratic Women's Association today demanded a time-bound inquiry by a sitting judge of the high court into the incident.

Speaking to reporters, the association's general secretary, Brinda Karat, said the inquiry should also probe the role of RSS and its frontal organisations in the incident following a reported statement by the VHP justifying the rape of nuns andthreatening action against missionaries.

The association had also submitted a memorandum based on its findings to the state Home Minister Harvansh Singh, she added.

Sangh Parivar's Terror Plot Exposed

By M. K.

Countercurrents.org

With all the startling revelations coming out as a cascade, it will be strange if for the larger interest of the security of India Indresh Kumar and other high ranking RSS chiefs are not put behind prison bars for the sole reason that RSS never stops its execution of its closely guarded plans which can potentially change Indian polity. Such is its cultural nationalism nurtured over the years that it does not want the Muslim minority, perhaps also other minorities, to exist in the country.

Indresh Kumar is a member of the central committee of the RSS in charge of the Muslim minority affairs. The RSS cannot allow Muslim to exist as they want, equal to their fellow compatriots. Make no bones about it with the RSS because they are so cussed that they would continue their sophistry believing that you can fool all the people all the time, at least in India.

Serving Lt Col Prasad Shrikant Purohit wanted to kill Indresh Kumar and according to his Abhinav Bharat constitution decimate Muslims because they would not be eligible for the Hindu Rashtra he had visualized. Purohit and Indresh Kumar have the same goal. Telling more than this according to the formula of truth of Albert Camus is a lie. To be precise, intended killing of Indresh Kumar is a lie, a white lie, planted to mislead. For, their aim is not mutual destruction. Both have the Hindu Rashtra in their hearts.

Even if it is believed for an argument that Purohit and Shyam Apte of Pune had given a gun to one Alok and the Kolkata Hindutva activist Tapan Ghosh on April 11 or 12, 2008, to kill Indresh Kumar; their desire to purge India of Muslims and other minorities does not change. Nor does their capability to wreck havoc in altering the political map of the subcontinent, change.

Truth also is the revelation that the medical doctor did want to kill the vice president Hamid Ansari at Jamia Millia in 2007. Creating anarchy is the hidden agenda of the RSS because it is the most secretive and hence most dangerous organization existing in India. Anarchy would lead to the kind of Hindu Rashtra Purohit and RSS envisage. What is the proof that they submit themselves to the Constitution of the Republic of India? When Allan Octavius Hume founded the Indian National Congress in 1885, the viceroy Lord Duffin called it seditious. Indresh Kumar’s secret meeting and conversation with all those involved in Malegaon, Ajmer, Mecca masjid and Samjhauta express blasts constitutes just that. It is matched by Purohit’s parleying with the Israeli officers seeking recognition and help and diplomatic immunity once the Hindu Rashtra comes into existence. Purohit was busy in recruiting youths into his organization Abhinav Bharat when he was posted at Deolali camp of Nasik, February to September 2005. Does this not constitute sedition, he a serving officer of the Indian army with a hidden Constitution to replace the Constitution of the Republic of India!!

".....Are we heading then towards a Christian India under Sonia Gandhi's helm? ...."

Yes, we may, if you the so called righteous right continue this nonsense.

a).Take a walk through the streets of mumbai,chennai,kolkotta, and bangalore at night. You will see so many people begging for FOOD, even in this year 2011. Aren't they hindus? While costly italian and swiss saffron flavored deserts, brazilian cashews are available in tonnes during BJP's chintan baitak in 5 starred hotels, poor hindus have nothing to eat. 

b). Even cobbler and beggar hindus are asked to donate to the temple and to BJP's campaign while the so called righteous RIGHT wing hindus ENJOY this money in the form of Russian girls, Imported Cars and Vacation in Bahamas.

c). On one side these so called RIGHT wing hindus speak about " christians, sikhs, muslims etc" destroying india and on the other hand when the same right wing hindus are pulled up by the Americans they pee in their pants and plead with the Americans telling them those were just to score points against INC....what a shame.

".......Yet there are today five Christian chief ministers in Nagaland, Mizoram, Meghalaya, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh......"


All the dirty work in India for the past 100 odd years were done by Christians(missionaries). These dirty work include:

1).treating hindus with leprosy, cancer, aids, etc etc
2).caring for hindu children who are orphans
3).caring for adult hindus who were kicked out from their homes
4).caring for elder hindus who were kicked out by their own hindu children
5).caring for those hindus who were somehow cheated by the so called ram rajya society
6).caring for those hindu women who were enjoyed by hindu men and then dumped
7).teaching these hindus to read and write
8).running hospitals for these so called true and false hindus including our jokers
9).running schools for all these hindus
10).begging with foreigners for aid for these hindus
11).teaching hindus to how not to be violent, alcohol de addiction etc etc
12)....

Ninety percent of the christians involved in the above work are NOT paid. All they get in return is abuses, harassment and violence from these so called HINDUS. Shame!

FIR against BJP CM and Family Members

Source: TNN

BANGALORE: Lokayukta police on Monday registered a First Information Report (FIR) against former CM B S Yeddyurappa, his two sons and son-in-law, charging them with corruption in a mining deal.

Yeddyurappa, his sons B Y Raghavendra, MP, and B Y Vijayendra, and son-in-law R N Sohan Kumar have been booked under sections 7, 8, 9, 13(1) D, and 13(2) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988. Yeddyurappa figures as the accused number 1, followed by his sons and son-in-law. Lokayukta SP Vidyasagar is the investigating officer.

In his report on July 27, then Lokayukta Justice Santosh N Hegde had recommended to the governor to initiate criminal proceedings against Yeddyurappa. The governor had written to the Lokayukta to initiate action. Meanwhile, Yeddyurappa has approached the Karnataka high court seeking quashing of Lokayukta's recommendations against him. The case is pending before the court.

According to the findings, South West Mining Company, a subsidiary of Jindal, had donated Rs 10 crore to the Prerana Education Society owned by Yeddyurappa's family members and Jindal Steels purchased one acre from Yeddyurappa's family members in Bangalore for Rs 20 crore, though the guidance value fixed for the land by the government was Rs 1.40 crore.

Will Yeddyurappa and family members be arrested? "It depends on the circumstances. After scrutinizing the documents and evidence, the investigation officer will take a decision,'' said Lokayukta ADGP Jeevan Kumar Gaonkar.

This is the first time in Indian History that an entire family of a chief minister has come under scanner of Lokayukta for corruption and YET the same BJP is speaking morality....

@Amit Pandey. It would be better if the articles that are used for referencing are duly acknowledged. This comment of yours on Somnath temple is a straight lift from The Pioneer, a paper owned and run by the BJP. Its editor is a BJP man who recently finished his Rajya Sabha tenure as BJP MP. Very often what matters more is very an article has been published, not what it contains. Here is the URL of the Somnath article http://www.hvk.org/ram/a13.html
However, I do agree Nehru made a series of historic blunders, including on his Kashmir policy. Patel would have definitely been a better PM.

Nehru was against re-construction of Somnath Temple  

Two Union Cabinet ministers, NV Gadgil and KM Munshi, were part of the Somnath Trust, Dr Rajendra Prasad looked after the trust's financial matters.

The approval for reconstruction came from the union cabinet itself. The Government appointed an advisory committee with KM Munshi as the chairman to oversee the shrine's reconstruction. Even Mahatma Gandhi advised that construction should be done with money from public donations; and Sardar Patel undertook to collect one crore rupees.

The reconstruction of Somnath temple set off a historic debate within the Congress on the twin issues of the roots of India's cultural nationalism and the meaning of secularism in India. Nehru failed to go beyond his shibboleth that the reconstruction would hurt India's image as a secular country. In his letters to chief ministers on August 1, 1951, he said, "It is little realised here what great injuries to our credit abroad is done by the communal organisations of India, because they represent just the things which a Western mind dislikes intensely and cannot understand. The recent inauguration of the Somnath temple with pomp and ceremony created a very bad impression abroad about India and her professions." His opposition betrayed ambiguities and hypocrisy in his ideological overtures. 

It was two mindsets contending with each other. For Nehru it was an act of revivalism. However, Dr Prasad and others took exception to Nehru's approach, which failed to weld the medieval and modern political history of India with its ancient cultural heritage. This heritage predates the advent of semitic religions, for India's pluralism cannot be delineated only in terms of presence of Islam or Christianity. India is plural in ethos and spirit; Hinduism continued to give birth to new sects and philosophies, many of them contradicting and challenging one other.

Nehru had no answer to the question that emerged from how the reconstruction of the ancient shrine, destroyed by an aggressor, discounted secularism. Dr Rajendra Prasad described Somnath temple as a symbol of national faith and said, "By rising from its ashes again, this temple of Somnath is to say proclaiming to the world that no man and no power in the world can destroy that for which people have boundless faith and love in their hearts... Today, our attempt is not to rectify history. Our only aim is to proclaim anew our attachment to the faith, convictions and to the values on which our religion has rested since immemorial ages."

Dr Rajendra Prasad or Sardar Patel's determination to remain associated with the Somnath reconstruction was not only a matter of personal conviction but an expression of quest for Indian paradigm of secularism and cultural nationalism. Nehru's isolation was axiomatic. The reconstruction of Somnath temple helped to exorcise the painful memory that was haunting the Hindu psyche and brought tremendous exultation - as Munshi wrote to Nehru on 24th April 1951 - to "the Collective Sub-Conscience of India." However, this quest which began with the collective efforts of Congressman of Tilak school of thought could not be sustained owing to lack of academic and media support, giving, as a result, an upper hand to the Nehruvian stream of thought.

Communal violence prevention bill anti-Hindu: VHP
 Monday, July 25, 2011, 15:55


Communal violence prevention bill anti-Hindu: VHP New Delhi: Terming the 'Prevention of Communal and Targeted Violence Bill' as anti-Hindu, the VHP Monday said the legislation defies Constitution, which calls for equality before law.

"Everywhere in the world, a person is innocent till proven guilty... This government is bringing a law under which a person accusing a Hindu of committing communal crime will have no responsibility to prove his allegation, but the accused will have to prove himself innocent," VHP general secretary Praveen Togadia said while addressing a protest rally at Jantar Mantar.

"It enables non-Hindus to commit crimes with impunity while rendering Hindus incapable of defending themselves in the event of attacks from members of a minority community," he said.

Communal violence prevention bill anti-Hindu: VHP
Dubbing the Sonia Gandhi-led National Advisory Council, which drafted the bill, as "National Aurangzeb Council", he said the VHP and other similar organisation will oppose the bill tooth and nail and not allow it to be passed in Parliament.

"There are two internationally accepted principles of justice - the law of the land shall be applicable to all and a person shall be considered innocent unless proven guilty. The proposed bill goes against these principles and aims at paving the way for a draconian law," he said.

The activists later burnt an effigy of the central government and submitted a memorandum to the President in this regard. The said similar protests will be organised in other parts of Delhi between July 26 and July 31.

Are we heading towards a Christian India? - By Francois Gautier  

I am a little uneasy when I see how much Christianity is taking over India under the reign of Sonia Gandhi: according to a 2001 census, there are about 2.34 million Christians in India; not even 2,5% of the nation, a negligible amount. 

Yet there are today five Christian chief ministers in Nagaland, Mizoram, Meghalaya, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh.

Ambika Soni, Oscar Fernandes, M K Anthony, Rev. Valson Thampu, Margaret Alva and CM Samuel Reddy are all Christians.

A majority of politicians in Sonia Gandhi's closed circle are either Christians or Muslims.

***

One should add that the majority of politicians in Sonia Gandhi's closed circle are either Christians or Muslims. She seems to have no confidence in Hindus. Ambika Soni, a Christian, is General Secretary of the Congress and a very powerful person, with close access to Sonia Gandhi. Oscar Fernandes is Union Programme Implementation Minister. 

Margaret Alwa is the eminence grise of Maharasthra. Karnataka is virtually controlled by A K Anthony, whose secretaries are all from the Southern Christian association. Valson Thampu, a Hindu hater, is Chairman NCERT curriculum Review Committee, John Dayal, another known Hindu baiter, has been named by Sonia Gandhi in the National Integration Council; and Kancha Ilaya, who hates Hindus, is being allowed by the Indian Government to lobby with the UN and US Congress so that caste discrimination in India is taken-up by these bodies.  

Refer to Amen - an autobiography of a nun and Mote and the beam - By Sandhya Jain.

Since Sonia Gandhi a Roman Catholic is at the top, Christian conversions in India seem to have gone in overdrive.  

More than 4,000 foreign Christian missionaries are involved in conversion activities across different states. In Tripura, there were no Christians at independence, there are 120.000 today, a 90% increase since 1991. The figures are even more striking in Arunachal Pradesh, where there were only 1710 Christians in 1961, but 1,2 million today, as well as 780 churches! In Andhra Pradesh, churches are coming-up every day in far flung villages and there was even an attempt to set-up one near Tirupati. Many of the North-East separatist movements, such as the Mizo or the Bodos, are not only Christian dominated, but also sometimes function with the covert backing of the missionaries. In Kerala, particularly in the poor coastal districts, you find "miracle boxes" put in local churches: the gullible villager writes out a paper mentionning his wish: a fising boat, a loan for a pukka 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. During the Tsunami, entire Dalit villages in Tamil Nadu were converted to Christianity with the lure of money.

Belgium historian Konenraad Elst laments that " When over a thousand Hindus are killed and a quarter million Hindus ethnically cleansed in Kashmir, the world media doesn't even notice, but watch the worldwide hue and cry when a few local riots take place and a few missionaries are killed by unidentified tribal miscreants. Christian Naga terrorists have been killing non-Christians for decades on end, and this has never been an issue with the world media, except to bewail the "oppression" of the Nagas by "Hindu India" ".More than 20,000 people have lost their lives to insurgency in Assam and Manipur in the past two decades. As recently as last week, four paramilitary Assam Rifles soldiers were killed in an ambush yesterday by the outlawed United National Liberation Front (UNLF).

In my country, France, a Christian majority nation , it would be unthinkable to have Hindus - or even Indian born French for that matter - in so many positions of power. Impossible also to find a non-elected, non French, non-Christian person being the absolute ruler of the country behind the scene as Sonia Gandhi is in India. Indians like to say that the greatness of India is that it accepts a foreigner and a Christian like Sonia Gandhi. But is'nt it rather a weakness, and an aberration ? Can't we find a worthy leader amongst one billion Indians ? This is an India where you see today Swami Avimukteshwarananda Saraswati of Dwarka Peeth, made to disembark from an Indian Airlines flight for carrying his holy dand, a thin bamboo stick which is a symbol of their spiritual designation, inside the aircraft cabin.

Are we heading then towards a Christian India under Sonia Gandhi's helm? It would be a tremendous loss not only to India, but also to the world. For in India, you find the only living spirituality left on this planet.

Congress Politician and  Indian governor Narain Dutt Tiwari, 86, resigns after sex tape shows him in bed with three women
BY SORAYA ROBERTS
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER
Sunday, December 27, 2009

He may be 86 years old, but a Congress governor in southern India may still have a little playboy in him.

Narain Dutt Tiwari, the governor of Andhra Pradesh,a Senior Congressman   has resigned after a TV news channel broadcast footage allegedly showing him in bed with three women.

After the tape was broadcast on ABN Andhra Jyothi Friday, Tiwari's office claimed that the x-rated video was fake.

"The news channel report is fabricated, false and malicious to tarnish the image of the governor," read a statement issued by Aryendra Sharma, the governor's aide.

Despite Tiwari's denials, opposition and women's right groups in Hyderabad protested and demanded Tiwar's resignation.

The governor sent his resignation letter to the Indian president on Saturday, citing health reasons.

ABN Andhra Jyoti, the channel that aired the video, reported that the governor promised a woman a mining lease in return for sexual favors.

According to the Telugu news channel, the woman brought the three women in the video to Hyderabad and only decided to expose Tiwari when he did not keep up his end of the deal.

The channel was barred by the courts from re-broadcasting the sex tape on Friday when Sharma filed a petition arguing that the video was "likely to demean and denigrate his office."

Tiwari previously acted as a federal minister and as the top elected official of northern Uttar Pradesh and Uttrakhand states.

What binds Hassan Ali and Congress together?

rajinder puri

Finance minister Mr Pranab Mukherjee does not utter lies. He speaks half truths. Regarding black money stashed in foreign banks, he told the media that secrecy had to be maintained in accordance with the provisions of the Double Taxation Treaty signed by the Indian government with 23 other countries. Mr Mukherjee told media: “Let us understand the issue. No information can be made available unless there is a legal framework.” What he did not say was that much of the money parked in foreign banks was not related to tax evasion but to crime. There can be no adequate legal framework unless the government launches criminal prosecution against the offenders. In fact the government does not want information from foreign governments. Foreign governments offer information that the Indian government refuses to accept. The German list of 26 names of account holders in Lichtenstein is much talked about. The finance ministry has provided that list to the Supreme Court (SC). Can Mr Mukherjee confirm under oath that there are not 18 other names on that list that have been withheld from the SC? Can he FM deny that the German authorities are willing to furnish four other lists of account holders in banks outside Lichtenstein which the Indian government has refrained from accepting?
The most glaring case of the government’s cover up of criminal money stashed abroad relates of course to Pune-based stud farm owner Hassan Ali Khan. Three years have passed since the discovery of his astronomical cache illegally stashed in foreign banks. In January 2007, raids by the income tax department revealed he had US$ 8 billion deposited in just one account in the UBS AG bank, Zurich. He has several other foreign accounts. He had not filed income-tax returns since 1999. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) started probing him for suspected money laundering. After three years, Mr Mukherjee told the media last Tuesday that investigations were still continuing. Meanwhile Hassan Ali walks a free man. Meanwhile, Mr Mukherjee disclosed that the US$ 8 billion had been diverted from the Zurich bank to an unknown destination. Regarding information about black money Mr Mukherjee told the media: “As and when the income tax Authorities will be in a position to prosecute cases against tax evaders, you will come to know”. Hassan Ali is not a tax evader. His money in foreign banks comes from crime. Credible foreign banking sources have disclosed that in collusion with Saudi arms dealer Adnan Kashogi, some of Ali’s money came from gun running. Did Hassan Ali amass billions of US dollars that attract tax to the tune of Rs 70,000 crore in India from selling horses? If nothing else, could not the government have immediately slapped a disproportionate assets case in addition to money laundering and launched a criminal prosecution against him?
The government did no such thing. Why not? Very simply, and bluntly, because the Congress party is most likely involved with Hassan Ali and has used his kind services to park its funds illegally abroad. That is why Mr Mukherjee must defend Hassan Ali. This is a serious charge but the circumstantial evidence to justify it is overwhelming. Readers might recall that on 3 May, 2010 it was pointed out in these columns that Hassan Ali held a secret meeting with Congress politicians including the political secretary to the Congress president. This was pointed out in the Maharashtra Assembly by the Opposition and subsequently confirmed after investigation by the state police. The question was posed: “During his interaction with Hassan Ali was (Congress political secretary) Ahmed Patel representing himself or his boss, (Congress president) Sonia Gandhi? If he was representing himself why has Sonia Gandhi not sacked him? If he was representing the Congress president how does Sonia Gandhi explain her party’s links with the nation’s biggest money launderer who is being protected by the finance minister?”     
There was no response in word or deed to the question raised. It is fair to infer therefore that Mr Ahmed Patel was not acting singularly but representing his boss, Mrs Sonia Gandhi. What other conclusion can one draw but that the Congress is guilty and the government is doing everything to protect its partner in crime, Hassan Ali? Today the Congress presents a strange picture. It reminds one of a sinking ship in which the captain, the first mate and the second mate all hate each other. However because the ship is sinking, fear binds them all. Let Mr Pranab Mukherjee know. All the half truths, the obfuscation and the bluster will not prevent the Congress ship from sinking. Its day is done. Smart Congress leaders should learn from rats. They should desert the ship before they sink with it.

Sonia's Black Money Account

Here is some shocking truth for all the supporters of Congress party regarding Gandhis ,

 Rajiv’ 2.5 Billions,Swiss Magazine Confirms.

 The shocking exposure came from Switzerland itself. The most popular magazine of Switzerland, Schweizer Illustrierte, [dated November 11, 1991] did an expose of 14 politicians of developing nations who, it said, had stashed their bribes in Swiss banks.

The title of the expose in German read “Fluchgelder — Die Schweizer Konten der Dictatoren”. In English it meant, “Curse of money — The Swiss bank accounts of the Dictators”. Rajiv Gandhi figured in the expose as one with slush funds in secret accounts.

Schweizer Illustrierte is not some rag. It is the Number One Swiss magazine and sells some 2,10,000 copies. Its readership is 9,18,000 — some 15 per cent of Swiss adults. The magazine had mentioned specific amounts in secret Swiss accounts of different leaders with their pictures alongside.

Advani's Frankenstein - The Jain Hawala Case
by Rajinder Puri

According to growing evidence sections of the Sangh Parivar are implicated in terrorism. Some reports say that BJP leaders will be questioned. There is evidence of hawala funds coming to pro-Hindutva elements organizing terrorist acts. Given previous police records, it is entirely possible that all this will end as a damp squib. Indeed, to go by the perversity of India's electoral politics, it is entirely possible that the BJP will eventually gain from such allegations! But public perception about the BJP's link to terrorism will stick. Despite no convictions in various mega scams, public perception about corrupt leaders remains intact. Links to terrorism, if proved, will dent the core agenda of the BJP. Indeed, if proved, they could disastrously damage the BJP. One doubts if these allegations coming on the threshold of a general election will bring cheer to LK Advani, who looks to becoming the next prime minister. But Advani needs to reflect. Does he or does he not deserve this fate? Did he not thoughtlessly create the BJP link to terrorism? Recall recent history. 

In 1991 during a general election campaign the police stumbled on the Jain Hawala diaries that contained the names of over 40 national leaders cutting across parties. The names of L.K.Advani, and several BJP and Congress men were in the list. It transpired that the same hawala conduits used the same hawala funds to pay terrorists in Kashmir. It became a TADA case. It was transferred to the CBI. 

Apparently, because big politicians were involved, the CBI arrested two small fry who received the funds for terrorists, and buried the terrorist angle of the case. One of the relatively unknown separatists at that time in Kashmir who benefited from the burial of the case was Salahuddin. Today he is based in Pakistan and heads the Hizbul Mujahideen. The CBI charged the politicians with committing corruption and with violating foreign exchange laws. Four political leaders admitted to newspapers and to TV that they had received the funds, which authenticated the Jain diaries. Later, though, some of these politicians contradicted their own telecast confessions when questioned by the police to state that they had not received the funds. The newspapers, committed to one political leader or the other, seized upon falsehoods to protect their respective favorites. The most widespread falsehood was that Prime Minister Narasimha Rao was pursuing this probe to target political adversaries. In fact Rao did not lift a finger to advance the police probe. 

Rao buried the probe because he was falsely implicated in the case. He was not mentioned in the Jain diaries. Jain confessed this to the police, much after the probe began. This merited a separate corruption case. One police officer probing the case, friendly to BJP leader Madan Lal Khurana, who was a strong Advani loyalist at that time, was persuaded to rush to the Supreme Court and enter the Jain confession about payment to Rao as evidence. He did this without permission of his seniors who were handling the case. Ironically for BJP leaders, that police officer, now retired, has obtained a Congress ticket from Delhi to oppose the BJP! The inclusion of Rao's name in the Jain Hawala case altered the government's attitude. 

Displaying shocking ineptitude the Supreme Court buried the case for lack of sufficient evidence. Thanks to the PIL, of which this writer was one of the four signatories, the SC closely monitored the entire probe. The CBI deposed before it in camera on the progress of the investigation before launching prosecution. And yet, the prosecution failed due to insufficient evidence! Did not SC condemn itself by this ruling? In its final ruling on the case the SC sought a change in the procedure of appointing the Central Vigilance Commissioner. It expanded his power. How could the SC alter the prevalent system by invoking the Jain Hawala Case, which, according to its own ruling, lacked sufficient evidence? Much later Chief Justice JS Verma, who headed the Bench hearing the Jain Hawala Case, said in a seminar that the case had been mis-handled and deserved to be reopened. Who mis-handled it? He and his fellow Judges monitored the entire investigation! The police, the witness, the accused, the judge - all of them were Sangh Parivaar sympathisers?

Corruption charge against Sonia Gandhi – Subramanian Swamy to move Supreme Court


Dr. Subramanian Swamy, whose efforts had led to the exposure of the million dollar 2G scam, is now going to file a case in the Supreme Court against Congress supremo Sonia Gandhi, seeking permission to prosecute her under the Prevention of Corruption Act. This has been stated by Dr. Swamy in an exclusive interview in a news channel yesterday evening. However Dr. Swamy did not confirm on when he plans to move to Supreme Court against Sonia Gandhi.

Dr. Swamy confirmed he had sent a letter to Prime Minister of India, Dr. Manmohan Singh on 15th April and that he has now received a letter back from the prime minister stating that Dr. Swamy’s accuses are a premature thing and does not find any bases therefore to proceed ahead against Ms. Gandhi. Dr. Swamy stated that since three months are over from his letter being sent, he would move to the Supreme Court in the same way he done against former telecom minister A. Raja, who is behind bars now.

Dr. Swamy had made several allegations against Sonia Gandhi, including the claim that 60% of the 2G scam loot went to her two sisters.

 Dr. Swamy also alleged that Sonia Gandhi has benefited from Bofors, she has benefited from Iraq food for oil deal, she has been the recipient of the payoffs from the Russian KGB and that she has been maintaining secret bank accounts abroad. Dr. Swamy also claimed that Ms. Gandhi is also involved in the illegal export of the antiquities and Naveen Chawla’s wife is involved in the scam too.

He also reminded that the Delhi High Court had earlier issued a notice to the CBI regarding the Bofors scam and that the spokesman of the successor organization of the KGB (FSI) had agreed to have given money to the Gandhi family because the whole family was friendly to them.

"....Subhramanium Swamy was a Chief Guest in a conference organised by RSS..."

Why did Mr.Swamy leave Jan Sangh/BJP?. The answer - Because he was a South Indian, he was told straight on his face by hindutva bosses that south indians should NOT aim for any leadership positions within Jan Sangh/BJP. If such satanic rules were not there in the Sangh Parivaar, Dr.Subramaniam Swamy should have been the first BJP Prime Minister.

Punjab BJP Ministers in bribery case

While the Central Bureau of Investigation on Monday questioned two Bharatiya Janata Party Ministers of the Punjab Cabinet, Manoranjan Kalia and Swarna Ram, in the Rs.1.5-crore bribery case related to a controversial land deal, the arrested MLA, Raj Kumar Khurana, resigned as Chief Parliamentary Secretary, citing “moral grounds.”

Mr. Kalia, who holds the portfolios of Industries, Local Bodies and Urban Development, was accompanied by counsel when he reached the sector 30 office of the CBI, where a restive crowd of BJP workers raised slogans in his favour, against the CBI and the Congress high command. Senior officers of the agency questioned the Minister for nearly an hour.

Later, talking to journalists at the headquarters of the party’s State unit here, Mr. Kalia emphasised that he was neither avoiding the investigations nor was he named in the FIR registered in the case. He said he told the interrogating team that he had no knowledge about the case and had never dealt with the matter in any capacity.

He further attacked her that “Sonia Gandhi is putting pressure on Defence Minister to purchase war-ship from France,This is even worse scam than Bofors Scandal.”

Then, Swamy attacked Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and called him spineless Person. He said “For Manmohan Singh There are only 2G exists, One is Sonia Gandhi and Other is Rahul Gandhi”.

Gandhi family has accepted political pay-offs from the KGB 

KGB papers

The second exposé, emanating from the archives of the Russian spy outfit KGB, is far more serious. It says that the Gandhi family has accepted political pay-offs from the KGB — a clear case of treason besides bribe. In her book The State Within a State: The KGB and its Hold on Russia-Past, Present, and Future, Yevgenia Albats, an acclaimed investigative journalist, says: “A letter signed by Victor Chebrikov, who replaced Andropov as the KGB head in 1982 noted: ‘the USSR KGB maintains contact with the son of the Premier Minister Rajiv Gandhi (of India). R Gandhi expresses deep gratitude for the benefits accruing to the Prime Minister’s family from the commercial dealings of the firm he controls in co-operation with the Soviet foreign trade organisations. R Gandhi reports confidentially that a substantial portion of the funds obtained through this channel are used to support the party of R Gandhi’.” (p.223). Albats has also disclosed that, in December 2005, KGB chief Victor Chebrikov had asked for authorisation from the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, “to make payments in US dollars to the family members of Rajiv Gandhi, namely Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi and Ms Paola Maino, mother of Sonia Gandhi.” And even before Albats’ book came out the Russian media had leaked out the details of the pay-offs. Based on the leaks, on July 4, 1992, The Hindu had reported: “the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service admits the possibility that the KGB could have been involved in arranging profitable Soviet contract for the company controlled by Rajiv Gandhi family”.

BJP MLA caught taking bribe......

Indore, Bhopal:  In a major embarrassment for the BJP in Madhya Pradesh, Ramesh Khateek, the BJP MLA from the state's Shivpuri district has been allegedly caught on tape accepting a bribe of ten thousand rupees to help a businessman from Indore open an engineering college in his constituency.

MLA: How many of you are there?
Ajeet: Eight of us.

MLA: Ok. I will try to get you government land as well as all the other facilities that you need from time to time.
Ajeet: We have seen a plot of land in your area.

MLA: OK

Ajeet, a businessman from Indore had been trying unsuccessfully for the past six months to start an engineering college in Karera, the BJP MLA's constituency in Shivpuri. The reason, land is cheaper here and access is easier.

When Ajeet approached the MLA for help in the form of a recommendation letter, the MLA allegedly said it would cost him five lakh rupees.

Ajeet: The recommendation letter?

MLA: I will arrange it but you keep paying from time to time, all the facilities will be provided.

MLA: Where do you want the land?

Ajeet: Next to the four lane highway or half a kilometre inside will also do.

MLA: Identify land which is next to government land and I will get that also allotted.

Since the sting operation came out, the MLA has ducked the media but it's a huge embarrassment for the BJP.

"We have asked for the CD that is being flashed. We will check it for authenticity then the matter will come up in the party," said Narrotam Mishra, Minister for Parliamentary Affair, government Spokesperson, Madhya Pradesh.

With thirteen state ministers under the Lokayukta's scanner for corruption, the sting operation couldn't have come at a worse time for the ruling party.

Advani apologises to Sonia over black money charges

Tribune News Service

New Delhi, February 18
Acting chairman of BJP parliamentary party LK Advani has apologised to Congress president Sonia Gandhi for a party-appointed task force report which alleged that she and her late husband Rajiv Gandhi had stashed wealth in Swiss banks.

Advani said sorry to Sonia in reply to her letter in which she denied having held foreign bank accounts.

In his letter to Sonia, Advani said: “I am happy that you have categorically denied the charges in the task force’s report on black money. If these had been denied earlier, I am sure the task force would have factored in the denial in its report. Even so, I deeply regret the distress caused to you.”

A task force, set up by Advani to investigate Indian money stashed abroad, had in its report alleged that “in India, even well-known cases of bribery and money laundering, including the Liechtenstein Bank disclosures, the Hawala affair of Hasan Ali, the Quattrocchi case and the alleged foreign account maintained in the name of a former Prime Minister of India belonging to the Congress, have not been investigated…” The task force consisted of two well-known members of Advani’s think tank, former IB chief Ajit Doval and chartered accountant S Gurumurthy The other two members were noted lawyer and BJP member Mahesh Jethmalani and IIM professor R Vaidynathan. Advani released this report at his home on February 1.

Later that evening, he addressed a crowded press conference at the same venue accompanied by NDA convener Sharad Yadav, Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal and senior party leaders Sushma Swaraj and Arun Jaitley.

He had suggested then that all ministers, MPs and even leaders of political parties, including Chief Ministers, should declare that they have no foreign bank accounts and if any such accounts are discovered in their name, the money should go to the government exchequer.

The same task force had prepared the first part of its report in November 2008 in the run up to the General Election. At that time, it had quoted the figure of Rs 25 lakh crore as money stashed away in safe havens abroad. Advani had then written to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and made it an election issue.

Meanwhile, Advani’s retraction seems to have upset BJP leaders. “What’s next? Are we retracting on the corruption issue too?” one of them wondered.

I have pics of BJP MLAs garlanding drug dealers, says Deshprabhu

TNN 2011

PANAJI: Nationalist Congress Party's national secretary Jeetendra Deshprabhu now claiming he has evidence of BJP MLAs felicitating drug peddlers.

Addressing a press conference in Panaji on Monday evening, Deshprabhu said that complaints of this nature have been lodged with home minister Ravi Naik. Naik, himself, has come under a barrage of criticism from the BJP, who has alleged that he and his son have a nexus with the drug mafia operating in Goa.

"There are BJP MLAs themselves who are involved in drug trafficking. I have photographs of drug traffickers being honoured by BJP MLAs," Deshprabhu said.

When asked about the home minister's statement that Opposition leader and BJP MLA from Panaji Manohar Parrikar was involved in a nexus with the drug mafia, Deshprabhu replied: "I don't want to comment on that. But, I will speak about what I know. I have evidence-pictures of BJP MLAs garlanding the drug mafia. I will bring out these photographs soon."

The BJP, over the last few months, has been mocking the home minister's statement that there is no drug trade in Goa, and has also criticised the state's director general of police for supporting that statement.

Sonia Gandhi involved in Antique smuggling from India 

Sonia antiques case


New Delhi, March 6: The CBI is awaiting information from Italy on the ownership rights to two antique shops in Rivolta and Orbassano, allegedly owned by Congress president Sonia Gandhi’s family, after Janata Party chief Subramaniam Swamy filed a petition in Delhi High Court.

Swamy alleged in the petition that Sonia was smuggling antiques from India to Italy and getting them auctioned abroad at hefty prices.

In an affidavit filed before Justices Usha Mehra and Pradeep Nandrajog, the CBI said it had sought information through Interpol about the legal owners of the antique shops in the Italian districts.

Swamy alleged that Sonia’s mother, Paola Maino, and sister Anushka Winci owned the shops, Etinica in Rivolta and Ganpaty in Orbassano, the Mainos’ hometown in Italy.

“It is submitted that at present since no criminal case relating to the subject matter is pending investigation, it may not be feasible to send a letter rogatory to the Italian judicial authority for seeking information,” the CBI affidavit said.

The CBI did not register a case against Sonia owing to the Centre’s pressure, Swamy alleged.

“Nevertheless, the CBI has again elicited the desired information from Interpol, Rome, whose reply is awaited,” the bureau’s affidavit said.

It has been more than two months since the CBI wrote to Interpol in Rome, requesting information on the shops. Reminders, too, were sent.

The CBI had to seek Interpol’s help after the Italian foreign ministry refused to part with the information, saying the matter should be taken up by the “Indian judicial authority directly with (the) Italian judicial authority”.

The CBI expressed helplessness in verifying Swami’s allegation against Sonia in another petition, where he charged the Congress chief of receiving “financial favours from erstwhile Soviet Union’s intelligence agency KGB”.

The bureau said it was trying to crosscheck the information through available sources.

Advani: Manmohan Singh must resign; hold fresh elections

Nellore, Andhra Pradesh:  Alleging that Congress-led UPA government was steeped in corruption and had failed to control
inflation, BJP leader L K Advani today said Prime Minister Manmohan Singh should quit and hold fresh elections, as the ruling alliance has lost confidence of the people.
    
Advani, who was in Nellore in Andhra Pradesh, to participate in a function said: "This government is totally corrupt. The Prime Minister has a great reputation of being an economist. But the common man is shocked to find that ever since this government has come to
power, prices have been going up and up."


A series of scams have come to light in the last few years for which UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi and Prime Minister should be held responsible, he said.

It is wrong to say that the UPA government has sent corrupt leaders to jail, Advani said, adding that former Telecom Minister A Raja, DMK MP Kanimozhi and Congress MP Suresh Kalmadi were put behind bars because of the CAG report and judiciary action.

Former Infosys CEO and chairperson of the Unique ID project Nandan Nilekani has criticised the Anna Hazare-led campaign as a “naïve” way to tackle corruption, and suggests that a Lokpal Bill can be only one of many instruments to combat corruption.

In an interview to CNN-IBN’s Sagarika Ghose, Nilakeni said that tackling corruption needed to be done in a “more holistic and strategic manner.”

The Jan Lokpal Bill is “absolutely not” a magic wand against corruption, Nilekani said emphatically. “I don’t know who is drinking this Kool-Aid. The notion that you pass some magical bill and corruption will go away is simplistic… That’s certainly not the way you should be thinking about this issue. “

“Áll of us want to do things to eliminate corruption in society and I fully sympathise with that motive and that frustration that people feel about corruption… But if you are going to do something about corruption, we have to do it in a much more broad-based manner in which this Lokpal Bill becomes one of many things.”

Nilekani stressed that he wasn’t saying there isn’t a need for a Lokpal Bill. “I’m just saying that a bill where you create a whole police infrastructure to eliminate corruption – without looking at the whole broad set of issues and fundamentally changing the way we deliver public services… That’s focussing on a very small part of the overall problem.”

“I’m very much for removing corruption, but the statement that this is the only way to do it to the exclusion of all other things is very, very impractical,” he added.

There are good politicians too just like good toostep members.

Do people have these kind of jobs?

(1)."...Mr. Munshi that "AIDS" comment was not on you or your family member ..."

Doesn't matter. I don't feel like accusing any of the BJP leaders of AIDs though I oppose hindutva. You cannot defame somebody especially when you have NO evidence. Can I accuse you of AIDs? 

(2). "...unless u think u r a family member of highly cross breeded dynasty..."

Did  you plan some years back that "you" will be born as Amit Pandey, as so and so's son, at such and such place etc??? Did you have control over it? The answer is NO. When you don't have control over any of these things, how can you accuse "a family member of highly cross breeded dynasty".? This is basically "jealousy".

(3). "...moreover this  comment is very Recent  while Topic  abt Khaitan ji is running for a  time earlier to that .."

That is not an excuse.

(4). "You should tell this to somebody who has never been to "school". "

That was a blunt statement. What I meant was "You should tell this to somebody who do not understand technology".

(5). "...It is clear that your Education  has never been  more than "School "

It is OK, I do not care. 

(6).,"..which will ultimately result in Ban ,  and even the topic itself is able to cause a ban on member , it is a well planned strategy of ur team , to defame a person in toostep  ,"

Why is this always one sided? Why is it that only you people get banned?. So, that means you are doing something beyond "the acceptable tolerance level of most people". also - Defaming is a right wing strategy.

Mr. Munshi that "AIDS" comment was not on you or your family member , unless u think u r a family member of highly cross breeded dynasty , Sonia has made herself a public figure by will and  behavior of Politicians and  Actor etc have been  target of public speculation for a  long time , its in no way comparable  to attacking a  member in toostep  , moreover this  comment is very Recent  while Topic  abt Khaitan ji is running for a  time earlier to that , so u can not hide urself  behind this ,     


Regarding personnel topics on toostep member there can not be any decency in starting such topics , and only a  person with rotten brain like u will give such argument , because u ppl have  stooped to very low level  , 

"You should tell this to somebody who has never been to "school". "
It is clear that your Education  has never been  more than "School " , that's why u r not able to understand that such  personnel debates can actually inspire more and more people to report personnel abuse ,which will ultimately result in Ban ,  and even the topic itself is able to cause a ban on member , it is a well planned strategy of ur team , to defame a person in toostep  ,

Anyway the kind of essenceless Argument ur  are  posting in support of ur Congress party , in which u only change some word in original argument and post that , looking that this kind of self-fooling argument is expected from u

(1)."....but ur team members have kept repeating those negative remarks again and again ..."

Let me make this clear - Mr.Murthy is not part of any team as you think, OR a better
answer will be " I am not part of any team, I am on my own, I have no followers and I am not following anybody".

(2)."... and   targeting toostep  member and starting topics like "vogue spammer  ... "

Well, none of us OWN toostep. So, every member has the right to start a debate on any topic by maintaining a certain amount of decency. You cannot complain because the debates that you people start, the opinions that you people have expressed are far more degrading and disgusting than what others have said against you. e.g. you complain
about "vague spammer" and "low level attacks on educational background" and how about when you post comments like " Why did Sonia go to the US, Does she have AIDs?". I think "vague spammer" and " low level attacks on educational background" are far more decent than this "AIDS" comment. It is the right wing strategy to harass, defame and destroy people who don't agree with them. This is NOT acceptable.... "Vague spammer" and "educational background" comments are not going to be withdrawn. A rule is a rule for everybody, there is nothing special about you, if you break it then you are automatically giving me a license to do the same.

(3)."Mr. Khaitans toostep account was deleted again ,this is happening for more than one month  and its highly probable that this thing is happening because  topic started by ur friends "vague spammer .. " etc came in purview of  Toostep Admin , .."

You should tell this to somebody who has never been to "school".

(4)."..  so if any of the members of  these debate are involved in this , they should  forsake this double tongued behavior ,.."

You should be the change that you want to see in the society or on toostep. I am not demanding any change.

(5)."...should be able to answer argument by  counter argument and not through personnel attack ,..."

Again - You and your so called team should be the change that you want see on toostep.


TooStep as I said is for people to debate, network, gain knowledge, relax, mentor, etc etc. But if you want to deviate from these values then my answer is "Let us continue this business...".

PART-1 SURYANARAYAN MURTHY
Thanks Amit, here are the Abuses of Suryanarayan Murthy:

1. Raju ji, The culprit is Khaitan... He spoiled the serenity of Too Step... Since you insisted, and I do not want to run away.. I am pointing my fingure against him.. Check with all the intelligence you have.. all fingures point at him ... trying to create differences among members.. Khaitan. Pl complain against me.. I will not enter too step unless and until you exit.. I swear on my parents..(Unlike you) third rated fellow.. This site's sertenity is lost.. slowly people will leave.. Then they understand me.. I dont need your III rated certificates.. Thank you one and all.., Bye.. Bye

2. Dear All…Instead of discussing and sorting out the issues by following the learned persons’ suggestions, the whole debate is covered with “you pat my back and I pat yours” attitude. In the process sincere advice is pushed back and professionalism took a reverse turn. What we want is a solution and not exhibiting certificates and repeated postings. Whoever has posted under fake IDs left their mark/track clearly. 

(1) Posting in bold and colored letters (2)Posting the same message on all debates
(3) Illogical postings – Ardhendu confessing (he is a fighter, no need for him to confess) or Gurleen apologizing to me and others (she is of my daughters age.. She is upright and the question of her apologizing to me never arose). It is done with a malafide intention (4)Posting again and again, even when others agreed to “Close the Chapter”. The pattern is clear.

There is no need to name a person. All sensible members do understand “who the culprit is”. I have taken up the matter with Too Step and I request others to really co-operate and "Close the Chapter" once for all. 

Let’s preserve the sanctity of the site.

3. Srinivasji is from Intelligence dept. The culprit left his foot prints clearly.. Just think... is there any body who posted same message repeatedly on all postings ?? In the name of Gurleen it is done again !! Habits die hard... 

4. Munshiji. Read my posting again with ref to Srinivasji... You will find the culprit.. I repeat... Habits die hard.. 

5. Some people are making a confession unknowingly.. it is meant for them only.. They believe that a they have a game plan and put it in operation. What is his game plan is known to all !!

6. Dear All…Instead of discussing and sorting out the issues by following the learned persons’ suggestions, the whole debate is covered with “you pat my back and I pat yours” attitude.

7. I posted this topic to make the members aware of the tricks played by some unscrupulous members, with an intention to insult and humiliate fellow members.

8. I am the person who is keeping away from you... want to fight ? get your certificates.. I will get my certificates... Appoint a panel. I never claimed I am so-and-so.. I am not for any party.. shameless fellow.. aceept this challenge.. We will meet with a Committe formed by Too Step with all our certificates (Originals please) and prove our credentials.. Okay ? willing to accept the challenge ? or pissing in pants ?

9. My dear Khaitan, I tell you one thing. Please listen. Gurleen is a kid, forget her. You joined Too Step with wrong credentials. You accepted it. Right. Now you are a member of the family. Behave like a gentleman. Post reasonably. Do not post BJP is great, I can change India in one month.. like postings. People are educated here and can not tolerate nonsense here. Be a good man and respond properly. Ardhendu listened to us and he is respected.. Listen to the advise of well wishers.. you will prosper.. I or for that matter any of the toostep members have any grudge against.. Dont insult elders.. give themthe respect due to them.. listen to them and prosper.. if you take it in the right sense, good for you.. If you take it in the wrong sense..good for us because we need not bother about you and your postings.. choice is yours.. want to be a part of the community? or want to be a novice, posting nonsense in all the postings.. decide.. If you take the right decision we will hug you and welcome you to join us. Otherwise, we keep atleast 20 km away from you. If you post, then nobody will respond.. slowly you loose ground.. Listen to your well wishers... Please.. It is the last and final request from me. Thanks 

10. who is BRAINY INDIAN Here? Gurleen Asked, Murthy: Who else? You(Gurleen) and your 10th class friend Khaitan. Only 2 of you !!

11. Shrikantji, I respect you a lot. Just keep quiet. Let this poisonous snake spit all the venom he can. Obeying Rajeevji's request I kept quiet. Atal Behari vajpayee do not need certificates or recommendations. Only 10th passed people need it. Please keep away from this !! 

12. Are you not ashamed to come on Toostep and comment. Unfortunately we not 10th pass candidates here. Shameful to have you on Toostep

13. You are an uneducated man.. not knowing the difference between using the words.. Hell with you, I am sure you are discarded by your wife and family. You deserve such response from Ardhendu and Naharul. Go home, lock the doors and cry in isolanced. Dont ask others to kill you. We dont commit such an offence. I am also good at using offensive language. But wiser counsel prebents me from doint it. 

14. Munshiji, You are advising us about decency levels ! When this man repeatedly calls an elderly, educated and knowledgeable person a child?  Ask your friend to keep quiet first !! 

15. Mr. Khaitan.. You need not teach me patriotrism. I am Indian by all means. I love everybody, be it a muslim, christian, jew or sikh. Even today I am willing to anything for my motherland....except contesting elections or canvassing for somebody. You are exposed naked in the public. Please stop using this abusive language. It is proved that you can nt win an election. Proved beyond doubt that nobody will give a ticket. You are not fit even to sit at the feet of these learned members of toostep.

16. Naharul has stripped this man named Khaitan, in the open. How come he shamelessly comment without proving that Naharul is wrong. In my opinion Khaitan must first express his regrets for taking too step members for a ride. Khaitanji, tell me you are 10th standard? or BTech? A liar has no place on professional's site. Go and canvass for BJP. They pay your daily wages..

17. Surprised Naharul !! You people are really smart. I belong to the old generation and not fully conversant with IT. Good work !!

@ Mr. Murthy , u will agree that  supporting BJP or Congress and starting debates on that is another thing , and   targeting toostep  member and starting topics like "vogue spammer  ... "  etc is totally  different  ,  people with Congress have  tendency to assume that they r on the  right side of so called secularism (?) , but that does not gives u liberty to starting personnel debate topics  and making fun of someone in that , by what i have seen in those topics i think Mr. Khaitan is very  humble person , he might have his ideas about  BJP, Congress etc , but he has not answered personnel attacks  by same low level attack like Education Background etc , infact i see he has tried to neglect these things but ur team members have kept repeating those negative remarks again and again , 

Mr. Khaitans toostep account was deleted again ,this is happening for more than one month  and its highly probable that this thing is happening because  topic started by ur friends "vague spammer ..

Dear Mr. Amit Pandey: I think you need some explanation about the whole issue. I never called myself a Guru or acted like one. As rightly pointed out by Munshiji, my idea is to debate, connect with the right kind of people, gain/exchange knowledge, relax and have fun.

When Shri Rajeev Sharma posted an article, Mr. Khaitan called him a child and abused him. I respect Rajeevji because of his age and knowledge. Mr Khaitan refused to listen to wiser counsel from other members. If you are supporting him, you are supporting his attitude. At that point of time Naharul unearthed Khaitan’s background from an electoral site. Frustrated with his repeated hate/irrelevant postings and propaganda of BJP on a professional site, I stepped in. 

It is unfortunate that some people understand only one language and we have to speak to them in that language to send the message. 

I am not against Khaitan or anybody for that matter. I only requested him to respect fellow members. Is it my fault? In fact I said let’s close the issue and become friends. I even invited him to Hyderabad and stay with me for a few days. But he is unwilling to listen/learn.

I never made any false allegation against anybody in my whole life. Yes, I resisted anybody/everybody who tried to act smart and create confusion and ill will. I also commented harshly on Munshiji when he tried to divide South and North. 

If you can advise Mr Khaitan to refrain himself from posting hate/irrelevant comments, it will be better. Hope he will listen to you. Let us spread love than hatred. 

Let me once again confirm that I am not considering myself a Guru. It is not a title like ‘Baba’ which can be added to any saffron wearing, bearded man. The Guru title is to be earned and conferred/confirmed by followers. 

I will close this with a quote “Don’t walk behind me; I may not lead. Don’t walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.”

Yeddy booked....?

Bangalore/New Delhi (11 Aug ,2011),(INDIA REPORT).

Lokayukta police on Wednesday registered a first information report (FIR) against former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa for allegedly receiving a Rs 13-crore kickback from a company that bagged a contract for the Upper Bhadra irrigation project.

Yeddyurappa has been booked under Section 13(1) and Section 13(2) of the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988. Lokayukta police registered the case based on the special Lokayukta court's directive on August 8. Acting on a complaint by JD(S) MLC YSV Datta, the court had instructed police to register a case and submit the inquiry report by September 3.

In the complaint, Datta had alleged that Murudeshwar Company, a subsidiary of the RNS group of companies, had paid Rs 13 crore to Davalagiri Properties Pvt Ltd and Sahyadri Healthcare and Diagnostics, owned by Yeddyurappa's sons BY Raghavendra and BY Vijayendra and son-in-law RN Sohan Kumar.

The government had shortlisted two companies - Kirloskar Brothers and Shankar and RNS Infrastructure-Jyothi Ltd - for the Upper Bhadra Project-Package 2. RNS Infrastructure-Jyothi Ltd, which is blacklisted in Himachal Pradesh, quoted Rs 1,033 crore, while Kirloskar Brothers and Shankar quoted Rs 1,025 crore.

"The government awarded the contract to RNS Infrastructure-Jyothi Ltd and later released Rs 130 crore to the company even before it began work on the project. Subsequently, Murudeshwara Company, a subsidiary of the RNS group of companies, paid Rs 13 crore to Davalagiri Properties Pvt Ltd and Sahyadri Healthcare and Diagnostics as a quid pro quo,''the complaint states.

Police will gather evidence and summon the accused, Yeddyurappa, for questioning and recording his statements. Once the investigation is completed, police will submit the chargesheet to the court. Before submission of the chargesheet, they have to take sanction from the governor for prosecuting the accused. Once this is done, the court will take cognizance of the matter and may summon the accused. If the accused seeks bail, the court may grant or reject it. If the accused is refused bail, he can be sent him to jail.

"We are verifying documents, and investigation will follow,''said Lokayukta Justice Shivaraj Patil. Asked if Yeddyurappa would be arrested, the Lokayukta said:"It depends. The investigating officer will take the decision during the investigation. It is too premature to speak about it now.''

"...He is matured and quite different from Suryanarayan Murthy...."

Mr.Khaitan is playing the "old game" again - the game is "divide and rule". My agenda for being on toostep is different from Mr.Murthy's. So, it is not fair to compare two people who have different agenda. Mr. Murthy's agenda( including agenda of many other people here) is to debate, network, gain knowledge, relax and have fun. My agenda does NOT include any of these. My sole agenda is to HARASS the right wing, payback whatever they did to me over the past 2 to 3 decades. So, please do not compliment me, I am NOT going to change.

Only  mean minded ppl will try to get someone banned from community by starting topics like  "A vague spammer in toostep " etc , targeting  individuals , which can  certainly   result in the ban of individual , once the  topic comes in purview of Admin of  toostep , unless someone is very much devoid of human value he will never try to act like this bcz this results in total loss of all the contacts , points etc which r made in a long period of time , how does it affects somebody if someone has more than one IDs etc , there r many spammers , but it is seen in  this case of  Mr. Ardhendu pal , nusrul haq , etc that they have started  a campaign to maligning image of   Mr. Khaitan , by starting such topics and  posting things like "he is a 10th pass out " etc which have no basis , and it tells much about the person who is propagating such nonsense about Mr. Khaitan , that  they can stoop to any low level in insulting somebody   , and   surprisingly    mr. Murthy has encouraged them  very much  in this cause  , so evidently so-much-respected Mr. Murthy don't belong to any  higher moral level than his  partners , a man who Enjoys insulting somebody by calling him a 10th pass man ,

Good to know that it is irritating you.

(2)."..that is why he is trying to delete ur account and praising all those  also who have tried to delete ur account .."

It is a shame that you are accusing Mr.Murthy WITHOUT any evidence. Do you have any evidence regarding this?.

(3)."...there r others also  like Munshi Ramchand  , who will  whole day keep posting news articles in debates   , and will annoy everybody , but ppl  tolerate ,..."
Good to know that you read all the stuff that I have posted. My policy is "No first use of any kind of force anywhere, whether it is toostep or on the street". If you post rubbish then there will be retaliation. I can't help. By the way - how many debates, insights etc have I started on politics? The answer is ZERO. How many have you guys started? At least 10.

(4). "...offcourse old age is not sign of being a Guru ..."
Well, that is your personal opinion. Every flower starts as a bud, then it blooms, shines beautifully, then it dries and finally one day it falls down. No flower can escape these stages.

Mr .Khaitan ,
This is message from Mr. Satyanarayan murthy : - 
"Still remember Ardhendu and Naharul !! Good that their names keep haunting you life long. I admire their work ! Both the boys are Gems and Dynamites !! ..."

after which u have posted  : -

"My toostep Account deleted again, Courtesy Mr Rajeev Sharma & Suryanarayan Murthy & Team. "

It is self Evident here through own message of Mr. Sathyanarayan , that he  has  some enmity with u , that is why he is trying to delete ur account and praising all those  also who have tried to delete ur account  and started topics like a "vogue  spammer in Toostep "  , 
What kind of behaviour is this ? why these ppl want to create so  much trouble for somebody , by making false allegations and deleting accounts so that one looses all contacts , whats problem they have if someone has  more than one account or  posting some topics repetitively?  there r others also  like Munshi Ramchand  , who will  whole day keep posting news articles in debates   , and will annoy everybody , but ppl  tolerate , so why they r so much against u  ?  and what they will achieve by this ?
someday before mr. Satyanarayan Murthy tried to become a  GURU of toostep by starting a topic about fake ID's on toostep , and everybody started  admiring him , but beneath his self imposed  GURUness , lies these ugly emotions of personnel hatred , and  insulting  others  , making trouble for others , without any consideration that how much  difficult it may be for others     ,
offcourse old age is not sign of being a Guru

Khaitanji, I remember having seen your age as 35 somewhere. Hence my comment. With regard to deleting you name, I suggest the following.

1) Post your views once.. not repeatedly.
2) Dont take a stand and expect others to follow you.
3) Allow others to express their opinion.. They need not concur with you.
4) Dont copy posting of others from somewhere and post it here.
5) Dont post irrelevant topics.. stick to the topic.
6) Dont develop hatred, it multiplies your enemies.
7) Love your fellow members, dont drag their names repeatedly. It helps you to increase your acceptance.
8) Dont drag any subject longer than it is required. It shows immaturity.
9) Keep up the sanctity and serenity of Too Step. It helps all.
10) Learn to forgive others.

Follow these 10 commandments. The world will be yours.

11 things to know about Anna Hazare 'n Jan Lok Pal Bill.. !

1. Who is Anna Hazar...e?
An ex-army man. Fought 1965 Indo-Pak War

2. What's so special about him?
He built a village Ralegaon Siddhi in Ahamad Nagar district, Maharashtra

3. So what?
This village is a self-sustained model village. Energy is produced in the village itself from solar power, biofuel and wind mills. In 1975, it used to be a poverty clad village. Now it is one of the richest village in India. It has become a model for self-sustained, eco-friendly & harmonic village.

4. Ok,...?
This guy, Anna Hazare was awarded Padma Bhushan and is a known figure for his social activities.

5. Really, what is he fighting for?
He is supporting a cause, the amendment of a law to curb corruption in India.

6. How that can be possible?
He is advocating for a Bil, The Jan Lokpal Bill (The Citizen Ombudsman Bill), that will form an autonomous authority who will make politicians (ministers), bureaucrats (IAS/IPS) accountable for their deeds.

7. It's an entirely new thing right..?
In 1972, the bill was proposed by then Law minister Mr. Shanti Bhushan. Since then it has been neglected by the politicians and some are trying to change the bill to suit thier theft (corruption).

8. Oh.. He is going on a hunger strike for that whole thing of passing a Bill ! How can that be possible in such a short span of time? The first thing he is asking for is: the government should come forward and announce that the bill is going to be passed.
Next, they make a joint committee to DRAFT the JAN LOKPAL BILL. 50% goverment participation and 50% public participation. Because you cant trust the government entirely for making such a bill which does not suit them.

9. Fine, What will happen when this bill is passed?
A LokPal will be appointed at the centre. He will have an autonomous charge, say like the Election Commission of India. In each and every state, Lokayukta will be appointed. The job is to bring all alleged party to trial in case of corruptions within 1 year. Within 2 years, the guilty will be punished. Not like, Bofors scam or Bhopal Gas Tragedy case, that has been going for last 25 years without any result.

10. Is he alone? Whoelse is there in the fight with Anna Hazare?
Baba Ramdev, Ex. IPS Kiran Bedi, Social Activist Swami Agnivesh, RTI activist Arvind Kejriwal and many more. Prominent personalities like Aamir Khan is supporting his cause.

11. Ok, got it. What can I do?
At least we can spread the message. How? Putting status message, links, video, changing profile pics. 
At least we can support Anna Hazare and the cause for uprooting corruption from India.
At least we can hope that his Hunger Strike does not go in vain.
At least we can pray for his good health.

Why is Anna Silent?

No weapon was found inside the car. The police had reached the scene of crime 25 minutes after the incident and had found the body in the seat adjacent to the driver’s in the Santro car. “We moved her because we could feel the pulse and wanted to take her to the hospital in the same car,” her cousin Rahil said.

The police said they had asked occupants of nearby houses, but no one had heard any sound or seen anyone near the vehicle.

Speculations were rife over the motive behind the killing of Shehla Masood. Even as her family demanded a CBI inquiry into the incident, the police said that they were exploring all angles, including suicide.

The activist’s body was found on Tuesday in her car, parked in front of her house in Koh-e-fiza locality, hours before she was to lead a campaign in support of Anna Hazare. There were no eyewitnesses and no one heard any gun shot, at least no one had come forward till late on Wednesday, the police said. The preliminary post mortem report submitted to the authorities on Wednesday did not use the word suicide but suggested that the injuries could only be self-inflicted.

Submitted by the Medico Legal Institute (MLI), attached to the government-run Hamidia Hospital, the report said: Only one bullet was fired; the fire was not from outside; when the shot was fired the car doors were closed; the shot was fired from a very close range; the trachea was completely damaged. MLI director Dr B S Badkur said that there were no signs of struggle. He said he had not drawn any conclusion because reports were awaited whether there were any traces of gun-powder on the hand. 

In her late 30s, Shehla had filed several applications under the RTI in GAD, Mines and Minerals and Forests departments over the last few years. There were speculations that she was on the way to the Income Tax office for an appeal under the RTI after her earlier applications seeking information against a BJP leader and a medical college owner were rejected.

Anna is a crook. The fight against corruption has to start from government offices,municipalities,RTO offices, the Police stations etc etc and NOT from Prime Minister's office (PMO). By targeting the PMO, Anna has some other hidden agenda.

Nobody is trying to defame Ms.Bedi here. She may be "cleanest" among Anna's team but certainly she would have made aberrations in her career. I do not think that Mr.Sharma is lying.

"...I am from Legal Industry and can better assess policemen than you...."
 That is just a statement without any validity. Anybody can assess anybody else as long as the person doing this assessment has common sense and is doing it in an unbiased manner, one need not be from any particular industry to have that ability.

TOTALLY WTONG CAPTION FOR THE STORY !!!!!

HUNGARY OF PUBLICITY, ANYBODY ASSOCIATES WITH ANYBODY ELSE. SO, TO SAY ANNA HAZARE IS KEEPING THE COMPANY OF SUCH FELLOWS, WHOSE ACCOUNT MR. SHARMA HAS GIVEN, IS TOTALLY WRONG. THE FACT SEEMS TO BE THAT THOSE PERSONS THEMSELVES HAVE ASSOCIATED WITH THE MOVEMENT, JUST TO FIND PUBLICITY FOR THEMSELVES.

NO DOUBT THEY ARE TRYING TO SELL THEMSELVES IN THE COMPANY OF ANNA HAZARE, AS ALL OF THEM ARE HUNGARY OF PUBLICITY AND ARE TRYING TO SHOWCASE THEMSELVES, WHICH THEY MAY NOT BE IN REAL LIFE, JUST TO PRETEND THEMSELVES OF BEING THAT.

BUT DEFINITELY, THE ANALYSIS OF MR. SHARMA, AS A STRATEGIC ANALYST, IS QUITE WRONG IN SO FAR AS HE HAS CARVED OUT A WRONG STORY FOR THE HEADING HE HAS PRESENTED. NOWHERE MR. SHARMA HAS GIVEN ANY INSTANCE WHERE HE COULD PROVE THAT ANNA HAZARE HAS BEEN TRYING TO KEEP THEIR COMPANY.

I AM REALLY SURPRISED, HOW HE CLAIMS TO BE A STRATEGIC ANALYSIS, WHEN HE TRIES TO PUT ABSOLUTELY WRONG ANALYSIS?
TO PROVE HIS STANCE, MR SHARMA SHOULD HAVE GIVEN THE INSTANCES OF ANNA HAZARE SHOWING THAT HE HAD BEEN TRYING TO KEEP THE COMPANY OF THOSE FELLOWS. BUT HE HAS GIVEN SIMPLY THE ACCOUNT OF THOSE FELLOWS, WHO ARE TRYING TO BE ASSOCIATED BY THEMSELVES WITH THE MOVEMENT.

Of course this statement is CORRECT. for example: A stuntman who jumps from a table, had to be admitted to ICU, what kind of stuntman is he? A magician who cannot pull out a bird from his hat, what kind of magician is he?. A teacher who cannot even teach for more than 5 minutes, what kind of teacher is he?. So, our fake ramdev, who claims he is a trained yogi couldn't even fast for a few days is a fake Baba, a thug.

Anna is Corrupt

Calling Anna corrupt  and non transparent ,Congress spokerperson Manish Tiwari   said Justice PB Sawant Committee had found Anna guilty of involvement in a graft case. The Commission submitted its report on February 22, 2005 in which it criticised Hind Swaraj Trust for spending Rs 2.20 lakhs of its funds on the birthday celebrations of Hazare

Maharashtra state government had appointed the Justice Sawant commission  in September 2003  under the Commissions of inquiry Act 1952  to inquire into the allegations of corrupt pratices  and maladministration against several people, including Anna Hazare.

According to Sawant report  "A portion of land  measuring 11 Acres  was admittedly alienated  by way of gift in favour  of the Zila Parishad  without the permission of the Charity commission , contrary to section 36 of the act "

The report cited that "  the trust had committed  an irregularity and also an illegality  when it did not  report both the acquisition of the land ,i.e. about 89 acres , and also the alienation of 11 acres out of it to the Zila Parishad , Ahmednagar."Also "the alienation was also  without the permission  of the charity commissioner ,which  was illegal."

The second allegation  against Anna Hazare  according to its report is  that " About 2.20 lacs  was spent in the year 1998-99 from the trust  for celebrating birthday of Anna Hazare ". 

Shri Abhay Firodia , a businessman , gifted  an equivalent amount to the trust subsequently .As per report "A defence  was sought to be raised  that since  the entire amount  spent for the celebrations  was received by the trust  subsequently, the trust is not entitled  to spent any of its funds  for the birthday celebrations ." 

Congress spokesperson Manish Tewari  said the trust failed to submit its audits for as many as 20 years.

Normally I don't respond to responses on my posts. But Mr Biplov Ghosh you have forced me to do this. Thanks very much for sharing this anecdote about Ms Bedi, who is a family friend of mine. That was the whole idea of mine when I had posted this and was targeted by trolls for trying to subvert the Lokpal bill process. My doubts have come right and past week's developments will tell one and all that all is not well with the company that Anna Hazare keeps. Those who have no other business but to pour vitriol on toostep members will do well to shut up, take a back seat and learn to listen to the other side.

I do not know about other personalities associated with ANNA HAJARE but i do like to mention a incident involving KIRAN BEDI: In 1989-90 Kiran Bedi was posted in Aizawl as DIG, Mizoram. Taking undue advantage of her office she influenced the state education authority and got her not so smart daughter admitted in Pondichery Medical College for MBBS.
When people came to know about the out of turn recommendation made by the state govt. student Federation called for strike and entire Mizoram was closed for three days.
Kiran Bedi ran away from Aizawl and didnot retun even for handing over charge.

Very sad and disappointed from these types of discussions and the statement given by some congressmen. The fact is that we are so accustomed in a bad and corrupted system we can not think positively and if anybody tries to aware us about the right we can not. If an awareness and good thing is coming why our politicians and our people are trying to curb these changes. Already i have discussed in my last discussion every child.every man every woman shold act like ANNA Hajare. Jai Hind

Rajeev Sharma's caption is misnomer,though he has very right to position himself. The fact is that the  people he mentioned are open to scrutiny since they are now in the company of Anna sahab Hazare.
Thanks ,Joydeep for referral

Even Mr. Rajeev Sharma's clarification puts his own position in MORE doubt when he says that he is "just a conveyor belt." His clarification, itself proves that he is acting just like a puppet in the hands of some one else, not as a strategic analyst.

The question arises, when he claims to be a strategic analyst, what analysis he made before putting the story before the audience? He has not done even a slight analysis while placing the other's long story. He himself agreed that he merely acted just like a dumb, deaf and lifeless conveyor belt that is moved by the power of other source.

He has stated that he has tried to show the mirror, but in fact here he has tried to show the opposite (opaque) side of the mirror. He is putting some one else's story before the members with the heading showing Anna hazare keeping the company of those fellows, but the story actually does not even slightly points out towards any effort on the part of Anna Hazare in trying to keep the company of those fellows, the story tells about.

REALLY SAD ON THE PART TOF MR. SHARMA, IF HE PUTS SUCH NASTY STORIES BEFORE US, WITHOUT APPLYING EVEN SLIGHTLY HIS MIND, WHEN HE CLAIMS TO BE A STRATEGIC ANALYST !

TOTALLY WTONG CAPTION FOR THE STORY !!!!!

HUNGARY OF PUBLICITY, ANYBODY ASSOCIATES WITH ANYBODY ELSE. SO, TO SAY ANNA HAZARE IS KEEPING THE COMPANY OF SUCH FELLOWS, WHOSE ACCOUNT MR. SHARMA HAS GIVEN, IS TOTALLY WRONG. THE FACT SEEMS TO BE THAT THOSE PERSONS THEMSELVES HAVE ASSOCIATED WITH THE MOVEMENT, JUST TO FIND PUBLICITY FOR THEMSELVES.

NO DOUBT THEY ARE TRYING TO SELL THEMSELVES IN THE COMPANY OF ANNA HAZARE, AS ALL OF THEM ARE HUNGARY OF PUBLICITY AND ARE TRYING TO SHOWCASE THEMSELVES, WHICH THEY MAY NOT BE IN REAL LIFE, JUST TO PRETEND THEMSELVES OF BEING THAT.

BUT DEFINITELY, THE ANALYSIS OF MR. SHARMA, AS A STRATEGIC ANALYST, IS QUITE WRONG IN SO FAR AS HE HAS CARVED OUT A WRONG STORY FOR THE HEADING HE HAS PRESENTED. NOWHERE MR. SHARMA HAS GIVEN ANY INSTANCE WHERE HE COULD PROVE THAT ANNA HAZARE HAS BEEN TRYING TO KEEP THEIR COMPANY.

I AM REALLY SURPRISED, HOW HE CLAIMS TO BE A STRATEGIC ANALYSIS, WHEN HE TRIES TO PUT ABSOLUTELY WRONG ANALYSIS?
TO PROVE HIS STANCE, MR SHARMA SHOULD HAVE GIVEN THE INSTANCES OF ANNA HAZARE SHOWING THAT HE HAD BEEN TRYING TO KEEP THE COMPANY OF THOSE FELLOWS. BUT HE HAS GIVEN SIMPLY THE ACCOUNT OF THOSE FELLOWS, WHO ARE TRYING TO BE ASSOCIATED BY THEMSELVES WITH THE MOVEMENT.

Thanks for the wonderful info, Mr.Rajeev.  We really do appreciate it.  And for a moment, let us accept that it is correct and true (which I believe since you will not risk your neck for the purpose of tainting these influential people).  But all said and done, they have brought out the discontent inside the people regarding the prevailing corruption in India.  Common people were burning inside seeing the endless reports of corruption and seething but without a vent to pent out their anger.  These so-called corrupt people gave them an opportunity to express their feelings.  Now we hope that something good will come out of this so-called drama and we are looking forward to a decrease in the level of corruption - if not a complete elimination of it.  I do salute you for having boldly put out these facts before everybody even though you know that you will be highly criticised.  Keep enlightening us.  With warmest regards, Raju

Thats interesting, really. You know man, you may call yourself just a conveyor belt/nidak/journalist/whatever, but I think, this isn't a time we need your article. If you remember the movie "Guide", the hero, the guide wasn't anything, it was the faith which caused rain. Faith of the people that India isn't corrupt is all that matters now. This faith will rain in the form of reforms that we will witness now.

Mr Sharma,

Let me tell you that, your fact may be true or false. In fact you have mentioned above that you are just a converyor of message. I can sense that you are a person, who is being operated by remote control. At the first place I dont trust the person [s], who does not have their own opinion and prefer to being operated on others wish.

I also keep you equivalent to Ms Barkha Dutt, who has also tried to raise various questions on Anns's movements like trashing the democracy, dis-trust in politicians etc etc. These all are being done to divert the public attention. With this I also consider you as tout, who is working for few corrupt politicians. In fact the problem for India is also people like you.

Now please consider the following

1. What option do you have in the current system, where the politicians are sleeping on the issue for years....

2. What is the wrong in bringing the national awareness on various issues even if the person responsible for bringing the awareness is not truly clean. But I must say he is much cleaner then the current set of leaders.

3. What if, you will be cheated once again by Sh. Anna in his commitment to country / public..... I dont think that any thing is worng in that as you are already being cheated since over 60 years.

4. Please let me know, if you seen such huge support for any movement, which is reaching to some conclusion and goverment of india is feeling helpless with this movement. I dont remeber any such thing happending, atlease in my life time of 40 years.

5. Have you ever seen such dis-comfort in the political leaders except for the time when they come to us for vote..... Atleast with movement, I see that political leaders are in dis-comfort zone and realized that now they have to work.

6. Did you know that UN resolution for anti-graft is pending since last 6 years and Govt does not the time to look into the draft. With Sh. Anna's movement, now the goverment is in action on this issue.

7. Today only goverment is announced the action on Shunglu Committee report, which was tabled around 3 weeks back. Why the action is being taken after Anna's movement.....

8. If you have read the wikicables then you will realize how the cogress ministers are considering the Indian public. If you dont beleive me then please visit wikileaks.com and read out yourself....

At the end, I wish to inform you that I am quite happy for all the happending in last week and followed each and every details in media, facebook and twitter. I see a ray of hope in all the events happening because I dont want to be like you.

If you have any thing specific to say me then please drop me a mail on pvar06@yahoo.com.

Regards

Praveen varma

People just  dont want to face the truth they just want to follow whatever is easy for them to accept even if it means neglecting the facts & making heroes out of people who just want to make name for themselves.If we think seriously is the Jan Lokpal Bill the only issue in our country  which should be given the highest priority when people in our country dont have basic neccessities like food & shelter.In fact many of our fellow countrymen must have been forced to go on  voluntary fasting  as they dont have money to buy a single meal.If we really want to fight for the betternment of our country why not by making life of our people better & providing them with basic necessities empowering them so that we can have more hands to fight against corruption.WHy is it required that when INDIA has won WORLD CUP & we INDIANS are really feeling proud of it at the same time fight against corruption has started.IT is good to think & follow someone rather than closing you eyes & going behind crowd afterall it is our country INDIA.

Undoubtedly, Mr. Sharma, you have presented flip side and followed the real dharma of a journalist.  People should know both sides of the coin, otherwise, they will be mired in mirage, losing out the essence.  All said and done, this is a movement, ignited "Nationalism" in the minds of youth, and on top of it all, a peaceful and silent protest on the principles of "Satyagraha" what Gandhiji taught us, that's more remarkable!

Before my Toostep colleagues go ballistic and start imputing motives to the writer's, and above all, my intentions in posting this article, here is a disclaimer. First and foremost, I am just a conveyor belt here. My sole purpose in posting this piece is to give room to the other side as well. Second, I have personally known most actors in the Jantar Mantar high drama, including ms Kiran Bedi. I can personally vouch for Ms Bedi's integrity. Nonetheless, a journalist is meant to show the world the mirror and that's what I intend to do. Third, pl remember (Anna Hazare and Co.) Vajpayee Ji's favourite comment: "Nindak Niyare Rakhiye". Always keep the critic by your side. This is the surest and best bet for keeping the flag of DEMOCRACY high.

This long informatve article is written with intention of creating doubts in the minds, which might have started getting hopes that, corrupt people will now get exposed and good times will be on the way.
The article does not serve any other purpose. 
It is my sincere wish that, if author has some more effective action plan to eradicate corruption, he should start implementing that. If not, he should stop creating doubts and wait to see what action Anna Hazare takes...

Any issue fought in the interests of public is seen as cynical by the critics.  Whatever said and done, people's anger on one issue, i.e. CORRUPTION, was on forefront and not people!  This spread like wildfire, when they saw one clean personality with Gandhian ideology spearheaded the show!  There were dissent voices within the group who should be involved in the draft committee.  Swami Ramdev raised an issue of having father-son duo in the drafting committee, and also insisted inclusion of Kiran Bedi.  Neither Swami Agnivesh nor Kiran Bedi were included for the simple reason that the draft Jan Lokpal Bill was drafted by legal experts (father-son duo), Justice Santosh Hegde and Shri Arvind Kejriwal and the nuances of all the clauses are known to them, therefore, they are there in the committee.  If the controversial personalities are here to garner wealth and publicity alone, they would never have participated in civil society activities - they would have got better positions in Corporates or they would have become entrepreneurs!  Let's shun pulling legs and move forward!
