Who would issue the certificate of “secularism” ?



If politicians think that by playing drama like wearing a cap or throwing iftar parties  on government money or paying visits to mausoleums or doling out largesse in form of subsidy for Haj will bring them power for ever then they are greatly mistaken. Because this is stark communalism and the Indians cannot be fooled all the time.

Today if any one talks about common civil code a constitutional directive, the  abrogation of Art.370 for bringing J&K at par & in complete national main stream, and total allegiance to the Constitution of the country he or she is bound to be branded as communal.

Now who would issue the certificate of secularism;  the Congress that was party to divide the country with Jinnah on the basis of two religions and responsible for totally forcible migration of 48% of Pakistan's population Sikhs & Hindus to India from Pakistan and their genocide or the leftists who connived with the Britishers and later look upon China and soviet Union for ideological guidance or the regional parties out to exploit communalism for vote-politics so that they are safe by keeping away CBI in the face of countless scams and scandals?

The communal secularism (oxymoron albeit)must be denounced otherwise the country is not far away from another disintegration. Do Pakistan and the ISI set political agenda for our country?

1984 Sikhs riots and CBI investigation



In the case of the 1984 Sikh genocide the court has ordered for reinvestigation after about 30 years. Of course the CBI has repeatedly tried to fudge cases as per the dictates of their political masters.

Only a few  days back the Bihar government accorded state funeral to a Congress politician who along with the then Speaker’s son , the nephew of then chief Secretary and some others  was involved in sexual exploitation of a girl and later her murder. The case then came to be known as Shwetnisha alias bobby sex scandal. The case was efficiently investigated by the then  S.P Patna Kishore Kunal who was on the verge of arraigning the culprits when the then congress Chief Minister entrusted the investigation to the CBI and the CBI acting under the influence of the then Congress Government wiped out all the evidences gathered that far by the district police. The stunning irony is that the then S.P. and the then chief minister both are enjoying the cozy perks of the Bihar govt. today.

The second question is subversion of the procedural law by Courts now a days. Why did they take 30 years to reject the investigation report of the CBI? What if the accused (I am sure Titler & Sajjan are involved) somehow are acquitted, who would compensate their trauma owing to the lethargically worn out process of law?

There must be accountability and objectivity in the investigation of a criminal case irrespective of who is in power.

Bihar Human Rights Commission takes up cases of powerful journalists


A low-down of the analysis of the performance-records of all the Human Rights Commissions at the level of the Centre or the States indicates that they have proved to be white-elephants. The judges and bureaucrats who have been cynosures of the government of the day are accommodated in govt. positions out of gratitude. Why people like Justices A.K Ganguly, A.P Shah, Kapadia and others do not fit into the consideration-zone of the governments? Why controversial persons are appointed chairpersons/members of various commissions? All this game of quid pro quo by governments impairs the sanctity of the institutions they had manned in discharge of their constitutional responsibilities. It is high time governments stopped distributing post-retirement sinecure sops particularly to holder of constitutional posts.

There is no need to have so many commissions if governance is carried out efficiently and without corruption. The Rule of Law if strengthened can effectively obviate the need to run myriad of such useless commissions at the cost of huge public money.  

Today I see that the Bihar Human Rights Commission has taken up the case of a Hindi news paper correspondent allegedly beaten up by a B.E.O. Only a few days back another journalist associated with English daily was treated with alacrity and the local police was taken to task in an exemplary manner by this commission.

Is the Commission not aware of the fact that the electronic and print media run by corrupt and wealthy industrialists or business men are themselves a law unto themselves? Does it also not know that people flaunt “PRESS” stickers on their vehicles? Are some of the journalists not blackmailers extorting money from officers and wealthy people? Was the congress M.P and big industrialist Jindal not black mailed for crores of money by a media channel?

For God’s sake if the Commission is so dedicated to protecting human rights worth its salt to poor Indians money then, go and protect the deprived thousands persecuted by police and administration. Leave these journalists, they are very powerful people. If at all it is interested I will provide evidence about the corrupt press people.

Foreign Minister Salman Khurshid adept at languages



Salman Khurshid as a minister or a politician in public life may not be rated appreciably by some of us. But his speeches in chaste Hindi have potential to enchant and mesmerize his audience. I have heard him articulate his views in Hindi & English equally with great wit, aplomb and panache. His selection of words particularly in orthodox Hindi is superb.
Of course I am not commenting on how he conducts his public business or runs  NGOs. But I really cherish his fluency in the two languages.

B.J.P EMBRACES CRIMINALS



The people in India have Hobson’s choice when it comes to zeroing on political alternatives. In fact today there is no alternative political party fit to win public trust & confidence and run the country in conformity with the true spirit of the Constitution.

All the regional parties are either corrupt or are gangs of waseypur. The national parties are no better either. The current situation is despondent, pessimistic, somber and ominous.

Yesterday the BJP inveigled by its poster boy Narendra Modi has admitted a Gujarat  goon Radadia who was jettisoned by the Congress for brandishing gun at bridge toll employees.

The country should get rid of the Congress, BJP, Aam Admi Party( nothing aam only a bunch of khas riding helpless mango people) and the regional scoundrels in form of parties.

The tunnel of darkness is abysmal.
