Testing Times……
Well read the news of Ujjain, ABVP state president has been implicated in Prof’s murder.
He has surrendered before police and sent to judicial custody. The law will take it’s own course. But in media they already have been convicted of murder and the tapes of threatening been aired across all channels.
I don’t know about the case and not trying to exonerate them, but the way whole issue has been highlighted seems other way round. It just follows the line, that whenever any RSS related organization is involved, media leaves no stone unturned to malign them.
These are a few examples-:
-during NDA rule, several nuns in Jhabua district filed cases of rape and the media directly convicted Bajrang dal,VHP for it. Later on it was found out that tribals converted to Christianity were the actual rapists. One of the case filed by nun was found to be false and medically confirmed that she was not raped.
- Graham Staines’ and his two children were burnt alive by a mob. Same allegations and direct conviction by media. But nobody investigated that Staines’ was a Christian missionary involved in conversion and the mob was of tribals and noway related to these organizations.
-Honorable Shankaracharya was arrested on the allegations of murder, case is still going on. But the way media and all parties (except BJP) jumped on the issue to implicate Him was simply fascinating. Don’t they know that Shah Imam of Jama Masjid openly supported Taliban and Laden, and was even alleged to have been involved in smuggling but NO ARRESTS.
-Sudden explosions rocked churches during NDA rule, same allegations, but later on Din-Dar Anjuman a Pakistani organization was impicated in it. But one of the Reverend approached Chandrababu Naidu to withdraw support from NDA ……strange……
-in broad daylight, a coach full of karsevaks was burnt in Godhra…..but our secularists said , they teased muslim girls and even abducted them…so the carnage took place. Within a span of 15-20 minutes a mob of thousand gathers and has all weapons to burn a coach….great organizing power or a preplanned attack….
There are several such examples not only recent but from Nehruvian era. The media is prejudiced and will never appreciate the yeoman service being done by RSS and it’s affiliations but anywhere it finds a controversy, it will try to falsely implicate them.
The solution is to have a strong electronic and print media which can fight back this misconceptions spread by secularists.

HISTORY REVISITED…….
We will be celebrating 60th year of independence staring from 15th august 2006. It’s a diamond jubilee year, so lot of celebrations will be held and we would be reminded of the great sacrifice made by our freedom fighters. It is this history which I am going to revisit in my blog.
While seeing all the publicity campaigns for I-day, the message was clear ,it is because of CONGRESS ,that we achieved independence otherwise we might still have been one of the jewels of British empire. It made me think, is it true, are we interpreting the history correctly……
Ponder on these facts,
After World War-II, most of the Asiatic regions like Indonesia, Vietnam, Myanmar, Lanka besides India & Pakistan got independent. There were no violent movements in these neighboring regions still they managed to throw off foreign yoke. I will let the reader decide whether it was QUIT INDIA or WW-II which expedited the process.
Indian National Army aroused national feeling among armed forces and turned them against their colonial masters first time after 1857. It made the British jittery about staying in India.
Besides anybody studying world history will notice that almost all independence movements were violent and basically armed struggles. Even in India we have a long history of armed struggles starting with Vasudev Balwant Phadke . Although we might claim that we are first to achieve independence through non violent means still violence had it’s own impact.
Revolutionaries like Bose, Savarkar, Aurbindo Ghosh, Khudiram, Bismil, Ashfaqullah, Dhingra gave more sacrifices than congressmen to see their beloved motherland free.
It drives down to the fact that an illusion was purposely created by successive Cong governments that Congress (esp a particular family) only sacrificed and made us free.
Can a nation of continental proportions be free just because of a family or a party.
The answer is NO, Congress was one of the many factors which led us to freedom.
But has’nt Congress and even the family achieved almost 50 years of continuous rule by harping on their sacrifices which are so small when compared to others.
For eg-: We only know (?????) Vinayak Savrkar but very few know that all the 3 brothers gave their heart and soul for this cause and elder Babarao along with Vinayak Savarkar suffered life imprisonment at Andaman which probably no congressmen ever endured.
It is because of such distorted visions of history that we have developed into a nation of such insensitivities. Because of impractical notion of non violence we have been suffering blows from our neighbours (latest of 11th july). And a nation 1/100th of our size is forcing UN Security council to take care of it’s concerns.
