Ugly face of India's Mainstream Media (MSM)

Media and Ethics in India are inversely proportional because nowdays you will rarely find media to perform a true, investigative and fair role in broadcasting news. No doubt it has become the most fertile ground to run propagandas for political parties and large business houses. Money is the underlying motivation to showcase news that favor selective clients.  

Media is playing a role of a "Pure-play Mercenary" whose only objective is revenue maximization through any means i.e. ethical or unethical. Since, these pure-play media mercenaries are prone to adopt unethical methods of revenue maximization, the Congress and Communists are their natural allies. However, the Congress has taken complete control over these media houses. Under such circumstances, how can the public expect that the news on media channels are not unbiased.

While most of the businesses follow Organic or Inorganic growth strategies to increase their market share and influence, Indian media adopts the Dynastic growth to achieve the same objective at a higher pace. 

A Dynastic growth is the most efficient because it allows businesses to go full throttle towards profit maximization. The following are the major characteristics of this strategy:

1. Favor the dynasty in return for undue favors - Indian media pleases the Dynasty in a simple but highly effective manner given as below:
• Target enemies of Dynasty: Persistently hound celebrities or personalities that have the capability to challenge the Dynasty OR its pervert agenda. Fabricate stories and run false propagandas to defame such powerful personalities. Perform the roles of investigating agencies, judiciary and other relevant committees AND then pass the judgement, final sentence and ultimate lessons from the case during 30 minute prime time debates. Indian media leverages wealth of its resources to harass prominent personalities and also to influence the perception of the common man. People such as Nitin Gadkari, Swamy Nityanand, Asaram Bapu and Swamy Ramdev have been under the line of fire of media. 
• Ignore/Justify the faults of Dynasty: Ignore the wrongs and scream on top of the voices for any little good done by Dynasty. This has been the mantra for survival, fame and growth amongst the media guys. Till date, the media has not had the courage to name the major culprits of various scams in UPA-II for example, Sonia, Raul, Bianca and Sonia's Italian sisters. These people have enjoyed maximum benefits at at the cost of taxpayers money.
2. The undue favors is a license to adopt Ignoble methods to further increase growth
3. Ignoble methods include Blackmailing, Sting Operations, Driving popularity of new & favorable laws, Supply of Liquor & Drugs, Women exploitation and Targeting opponents on false charges. 

Media's blatant use of the Dynastic politics has helped them to wield considerable influence over people's perception across the country. 

However, mainstream media's current way of functioning has caused significant mess in India's political, administrative and economic eco-system. It has given vertical as well as horizontal push to the black money economy and corruption. Media has transformed unorganized corruption into organized corruption. 

Clearly, the transformation has caused a lot of anguish and frustration amongst the youth of the country. This is because India's youth refuses to be enamored by the Gandhis in exchange of accepting corruption as a way of life. The youth demands performance, transparency, development and equality for each Indian. Congress, during its 60 years of rule, has failed miserably to offer sustainable solutions in these areas. In spite of the failure in governance, our media still blindly favors the Gandhis. 

Nonetheless, the common man is now beginning to understand the difference between ideal and actual role of mainstream media. As a result, many youngsters (within the bracket of 18-35) have begun to voice their opinions on parallel channels like Social Media. This has somewhat restrained media to go full throttle, nonetheless, it's inclination towards the Dynasty is quite visible. The following are some of the examples that highlight the "not so neutral" side of Indian media:

1. National Herald Scam: Rahul and Sonia are the main beneficiaries and the evidence of their involvement is crystal clear. The scam enabled the Gandhis to loot National Herald's property worth INR 2000 crores in return of a petty loan worth INR 90 crores. The major parties involved are given below:
1. National Herald - A newspaper which was closed in 2008 due to financial crisis
2. Associated Journals Ltd - The publishers of National Herald 
3. Young Indian - A trust company formed in 2010 with Rahul & Sonia havings 76% shareholding
4. Congress Party
2. 2G spectrum: A. Raja was shown and declared as the major culprit; however, others such as Chidambram, Sonia and her sisters were the major beneficiaries who were deliberately kept out of the media focus. 
3. Thorium Scam: Thorium is a highly powerful material that can be used in nuclear reactors with very less adverse affects. Initially, export of Thorium was not possible because it was a prescribed substance under the Atomic Energy Act. However, our PM Dr. Manmohan Singh delisted this product in order to allow its export to foreign countries, particularly USA. Thorium is India's great Oil discovery, then why our Indian media is silent on highlighting this scam to general public? 
4. CWG Scam: Kalmadi was made the scapegoat for the entire scam but other prominent leaders like Shiela Dikshit and Sandeep Dikshit were also involved. The cuts of the scam went right up to the top of the pyramid but Media simply did not show any spine in getting hold of the main culprits.

Media continues to ignore plenty of other issues because it helps them to make Super-normal profits. For example, the media has not made any effort to highlight the injustice done to Sukanya Devi who was raped by Rahul Gandhi and his foreign friends in Amethi. The Robert Vadra land scams were on the news channels only for couple of days and then went off. Dynasty's close connections are also let off by the media, for example, Tarun Tejpal 's rape of a 22 year old girl who worked as an employee of Tehelka. 

The media has not shown the same passion and intensity in following up with cases that involved the Dynasty.

Compare this with other news such as that of Bapu Asaram whose not been proved guilty but he has already been adjudged as a culprit. Nitin Gadkari was hounded 24/7 for allowing his employees to be the director but nothing came out of the scam and nothing was proved. Recently, the Uttarakhand government has filed 81 cases against Baba Ramdev to not only harass, blackmail and defame him but to shut his voice against Dynasty. 

In other cases, particularly in relation to Dynasty's opponents, our mainstream media has put in 500% effort to create smoke out of thin air. 

Given the facts, the mainstream media needs to change its course, that is, switch from a Dynastic to a Dynamic-Democratic system wherein it allows the voice of common people to be heard across the country. The media also needs to be more accountable towards the quality and factual correctness of news it is reporting. If media fails to take these steps, then it risks losing its relevance completely.

Sanskrit as India's National Language

सरस्वति महाभागे विद्ये कमललोचने।

विद्यारूपे विशालाक्षि विद्यां देहि नमोऽस्तु ते॥

Oh Great Goddess Sarasvati! The embodiment of knowledge!

One with broad eyes beautiful like lotus petals! Learning Solidified!

My salutations to you. Grant me the knowledge.

Sanskrit is the fountainhead of all languages on earth – that is why Sanskrit is popularly known as the mother of all languages. The word Sanskrit indicates perfection as explained below:

1. Sanskrit = Sam + Krit
2. Sam means entirely, wholly OR perfectly; AND
3. Krit means done

When we add Sam and Krit, we get Sanskrit which means 'perfectly done'. All our scriptures namely the Vedas, Upanishads and Puranas were originally written in Sanskrit which highlights its relevance.

In ancient times, Sanskrit was the preferred mode of communication amongst rishis as well as the common man. During those times, our ancestors used Sanskrit in every field – for example, trade, education, research & development and administration. India's glorious past also coincides with a time when Sanskrit was the most dominant language. Sanskrit's original structure and form is still available and prevalent in some parts of India.

It would be naive to underestimate the utility and potential of Sanskrit as many scientists, linguists, and scholars study Vedas and Upanishads in the present times. Sanskrit has been gaining traction due to its practical applicability across different fields such as computer science, energy, nano technology and space programs. 

Sanskrit may have been ignored but it is far from being dead. On the contrary, Sanskrit is reviving all over the world and will soon become the most dominant language.

I would like to highlight the following reasons for declaring Sanskrit as India's national language. They are given below:

Sanskrit is a Scientific Language
In 1985, Rick Briggs, who worked at NASA Ames Research Center, highlighted the suitability of Sanskrit as a perfect language for artificial intelligence. He compared Sanskrit with English and proved that a Sanskrit sentence rendered into triples matches precisely with the analysis achieved through application of computer processing. Through a series of tests and analysis, the author proved that Sanskrit is the most specific and unambiguous language and hence apt for computer programming.

The westerners will not openly admit the supremacy of Sanskrit; however, they are gradually realizing its advantages. 

Don't be surprised if you witness Western Sanskrit scholars visiting India to teach Sanskrit. Such a trend is already visible in other areas such as Yoga and ISKCON.

National Identity and Unity
Sanskrit has the ability to unify people across different states of India. The South Indian languages such as Tamil, Malyalam, Telugu, and Kannada are very similar to Sanskrit. In North India, majority of Indians are comfortable with Hindi which is also a subset of Sanskrit. Adoption of Sanskrit as the national language will effectively unite the different chords of our culture whether in North, South, East OR West. Sanskrit will stimulate a sense of nationalism in our country which will also nurture unity.

India, under the umbrella of unity, will be able to withstand different foreign attacks that may be targeted on our culture, business and religion.

Ocean of Knowledge
It is a given fact that vast knowledge exists in our scriptures such as Vedas and Upanishads. Our scriptures cover almost every topic that is relevant as per the current times – for example, science, literature, poetry, law, economy, philosophy, religion, defense and others. While translations of these scriptures exist, they are not able to convey the same meaning as provided in the original. Therefore, Sanskrit is the key to access, analyse and utilize this knowledge. 

Sanskrit is the bridge through which these oceans of knowledge can be crossed, understood and applied for the welfare of the mankind.

Connect with Culture
Sanskrit will help Indians to connect with India's ancient culture and traditions which will influence our thought, speech and actions in a positive manner. Nation wide adoption of Sanskrit will help India to regain its identity thereby bringing in revolutionary changes in the mindset of every person of the country. Sanskrit will help Indians to transform, evolve and change to become true Hindus. Consequently, one can expect the Hindus to rise and fight for justice, women safety, gender equality, transparent administration and crime reduction.

Sanskrit will transform passive Hindus (those disconnected from their roots due to the influence of Britishers and Muslims) into active Virat Hindus.

Government's role
Our government has failed to leverage the hidden treasures of our scriptures; however, it has been quite pliant towards western culture. Lack of efforts towards understanding our culture has only helped the West to dominate at global level. It has helped Islam to dominate on the basis of oil reserves and not due to any significant scientific achievement. West has borrowed Indian concepts, applied them in their laboratories and then achieved favorable results due to continuous support from their governments. They have re-packaged the already existing scientific discoveries and created products that are acceptable to masses. Obviously, they were smart enough to pocket nice and handsome profits from such ventures. 

Whereas, India which is the original source of all knowledge still continues to languish in business, science & technology and political dominance at global level. This equation needs to be re-balanced in order to rectify the wrongs committed on India. 

India's time to lead, secure and enlighten the world is long overdue; however, many times it has fallen short of its true potential. The change is possible provided we elect leaders who display Will power, Imagination and Courage through their actions.

In the end, I would like to conclude by the following couplets:

"Sanskrit is the mother,
Sanskrit is the root,
Sanskrit is the future,
Sanskrit is the soul of India"

– Gaurav Bhatia

Dr. Subramanian Swamy - A note on his achievements

This article is dedicated to Dr. Subramanian Swamy whose hard work and perseverance has inspired the hearts of millions of Hindus and who continues to fight this war to save the ancient Indian culture. 

While it is natural for a Congress supporter to oppose Dr. Swamy on whatever pretexts, I have also seen some patriots getting confused about the intentions of Dr. Swamy. Such confusions could be attributed to following:

1. False knowledge: This normally happens when you give weightage to media cooked stories OR perceptions of a biased person (a person whose thought frequency is incongruent with India's interests).
2. Half knowledge: This happens when you are attracted towards the efforts of Dr. Swamy and try to understand his life; however, during the mid-way you become too lazy to understand his efforts in entirety. 

In order to clear the Congress and media haze that surrounds Dr. Swamy, please find below details of his achievements in India's context:

2G Spectrum Scam 

1. 2008 - Dr. Swamy wrote letters to PM on 2G spectrum allocation from the very beginning, i.e. in 2008 - the year in which the licenses were allocated. In the letters, Dr. Swamy clearly highlighted the discrepancies in the method of spectrum allocation; however, our PM did not deem it fit to respond or take any action. 
2. 2009 - Under the instructions of Central Vigilance Commission, the CBI filed a charge sheet in the 2G spectrum allocation. However, the CBI neither included any names nor pursued the matter with any seriousness.
3. 2010 - CAG, in its report on 2G spectrum allocation, highlighted a loss INR 1.76 lakh crore. The scam was evident and more information such as Radia tapes got leaked. Suddenly, all hell broke loose as people took notice of the scam. 
• During this time, Dr. Swamy requested Delhi HC to instruct our PM to prosecute A Raja for his involvement in 2G scam.
• Delhi HC refuses to do so and Dr. Swamy moves to the SC.
• A. Raja resigned as Telecom minister.
4. 2011 - Dr. Swamy moves SC for cancellation of 122 2G licenses
5. 2012 - The SC cancelled all 122 licenses allotted by A. Raja and also imposed a fine of INR 50 million on Unitech wireless, Swan Telecom and Tata Teleservices. 

A landmark judgement was taken due to persistent efforts of Dr. Swamy who single handedly shook the corrupt walls of Congress.

Ramsetu Case

Ramsetu was a bridge that was used by Sri Ram to reach Lanka. Nal and Neel were two engineers who were pivotal in building Ramsetu. Therefore, Ramsetu is quite important for the Hindus and Hinduism. The UPA government, knowing fully that Ramsetu has cultural and religious significance for Hindus, completely disregarded the belief of majority and went ahead with a proposal to build a Sethusamundram Shipping Channel Project (SCCP) which would require dredging of Ramsetu.

In 2007, the Supreme Court (SC) prevented the UPA from going ahead with the project. Rather, the SC suggested that the present government identify another route to build a shipping channel.

Meanwhile, Dr. Swamy filed a petition in the court for scrapping the project. The case is still on; however, the UPA has very little left to defend as the project is completely unviable. Dr. Swamy has cited the following reasons for scrapping the SCCP:

1. Ecological Imbalance: The project is a threat to the natural beauty of the site. Dredging Ramsetu will not only devastate the already endangered species of that region but also create an imbalance which could result in more natural disasters such as Tsunamis.
2. Threat to India's Security: Dredging the route of Ramsetu will shorten the distance between India and Sri Lanka. Moreover, India's Southern tip will be easily accessible to foreign naval forces. Therefore, it is indeed a threat to India's naturally built self defense mechanism in the form of Ramsetu.
3. Deliberate attempt to undermine Hindu Beliefs: The UPA has many times questioned the existence of Sri Ram to achieve their petty selfish gains. Moreover, the implementation of SCCP will allow Christian missionaries to target CONFUSED HINDUS for the purpose of conversion which will eventually help Christianity to increase its base in India. 

The current government has shaken hands with Muslim and Christian organizations. Moreover, Sonia Gandhi, who holds considerable influence on Congress & its allies, is a staunch christian who has little or no respect for Hindu traditions. She is also quite close to Opus Dei and Vatican whose primary objective is to increase the Christian headcount across the world. Dredging of Ram Setu is a well planned strategy to influence vulnerable Hindu mindset in order to induce them to convert.

Replacement of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) with Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trail (VVPAT) System 

Dr. Swamy has already proved that the EVMs are not tamper proof. The UPA has very subtly conducted a much bigger fraud on Indians through the EVM system. For example, an analysis of past LS elections indicates that nearly 165 LS seats were won or lost by just 10,000 votes. And these are constituencies where the average voting population is around 15 lakhs voters. Apparently, the gullible Indians are not aware of the EVM fraud and continue to believe that UPA-II is a fairly elected coalition at the centre. 

Another notable fact is that many developed countries such as Germany, Netherlands, Ireland, UK, France, Japan and Singapore do not use EVMs. In US, the EVM with a paper trail is used. However, India continues to be an exception where EVMs without paper trail are used.

Just recently, the SC has agreed with Dr. Swamy regarding the vulnerability of EVMs. As a result, the SC has directed the Election Commission to introduce VVPAT system before the next general elections of 2014. The VVPAT system is not just about BJP, Congress or any other party, on the contrary it is about facilitating a transparent voting mechanism to the electorate.  

Besides the above cases, Dr. Subramanian Swamy has also been at the forefront of number of other cases such as Aircel-Maxis Deal, AirAsia deal, Jet-Etihad deal and Hashimpura massacre. We will cover these cases in the part-II of the article.

The success in above cases is reflective of Dr. Swamy's intellectual capabilities, fighting spirit and sense of nationalism. He has fought long and hard against large ticket corruption cases which has shown the common man that justice can be delivered in our country. 

I sincerely request all true patriots to form their opinions only after conducting a thorough investigation of the facts that are available through different sources. Please do not fall for the media stories especially those that are slanderous in nature.  

The "Best of Dr. Swamy" is still to come - It will be better if you tighten up your seat belts whether you like it or not :)

Hanuman's Story

JAI BAJRANG BALI

Lord Hanuman, an avatar of Lord Shiva, is one of the main protagonists of Ramayana. He took birth to help Lord Sri Ram for re-establishing the dominance of good over evil. As Hanuman was born with gifted talents, his powers and siddhis were visible from the day one of his birth. 

He was son of Devi Anjana and Vanar king Kesari who were no ordinary beings. While Kesari was the chief of Vanara army of Sugriva, Devi Anjana was an apsara in her previous birth. Since Lord Vaayu helped Devi Anjana to eat the divine pudding that led to Hanuman's birth, he became the Godfather of Lord Hanuman. At the time of Hanuman's birth, Sri Ram also arrived on earth along with his brothers.

Lord Hanuman's natural capability to protect the downtrodden, help the needy and acquire knowledge of vedas was evident from early childhood. However Lord Hanuman was quite mischievous as a child and he did annoy a lot of sages through his naughty acts. 

Consequently various sages, using their power of Tapasya, ensured that Lord Hanuman forgets his knowledge and siddhis. This was primarily done to control the mischiefs of Lord Hanuman. Nonetheless, the sages knew that Hanuman had taken birth for a special purpose and therefore, they also established a way through which he will realize his full potential at an appropriate time.

Once, Lord Hanuman charged towards Sun God thinking that he is a fruit. When Indra saw a young child charging towards SUN, he used thunderbolt to stop him. However, Indra's power of thunderbolt killed Hanuman. Lord Vaayu, who was Hanuman's Godfather, threatened the GODS that he will suck away all air from earth which will make life impossible for all living beings. 

The Gods knew that Hanuman was badly needed to restore the balance on earth. The Gods were also aware that the primary objective of Hanuman's birth was to help Narayana. As a result, Lord Shiva brought Hanuman back to life and other GODS (including Indra) generously granted boons to Hanuman.

I will post more information in future, as one post is not sufficient to capture everything about the Legend of Lord Hanuman. Therefore, I request you to patiently wait for more. 

The Argumentative Secular

I have had a lot of interactions with my fellow Indians from different backgrounds. Besides the small talk and other stuff, most of the times I have ended up discussing the political situation of our country. While I do see that a common Indian is gradually waking up to the crimes committed by Congress, I still feel that he is quite reluctant to accept the inherent flaws in his support for Congress. Given the extent of my conversations, I can classify these congress supporters into the following categories: 

1. Half Patriots Seculars: These people feel for the motherland however, they do not have the courage to raise their voice openly. One common trait in them is cowardice because they are scared to accept that Congress is a partner of Islam in its undeclared war on India. Due to this cowardice, these half patriots hide in the Burqa of Secularism. And no other party except congress symbolizes cowardice and pseudo secularism perfectly - hence, the support. Consequently, these seculars will fight tooth and nail to defend secularism and also try to show that Islam is not at all that bad. They are willing to die for the motherland but are unwilling to accept the weaknesses of Islam. They are not even prepared to tackle Islam with proper solutions. Majority of confused middle-class Hindus are in this category.
2. Naive and rural: Although their number is getting marginalized on a daily basis, they still exist. And to everyone's shock, they still believe in the false legend of Congress. They believe that the fake Gandhis can deliver the goods just as Mahatma Gandhi did back in 1947. Mostly innocent rural people, who are unaware that they and their upcoming generations have been ripped permanently from leading a dignified life, come under this bracket. They fail to understand why more and more Indians are becoming increasingly assertive about their rights. They like to be led by a charming personality whether it is Rajiv, Indira OR Rahul Gandhi (aka Buddhu).
3. Pure-play mercenaries: They are willing to trade their support for a particular party in exchange of favors. These favors could be in the form of money, alcohol, reservations, jobs, business opportunities etc. The mercenaries are the most selfish and do not have any love, whatsoever, for the motherland. They are predominantly parasites who thrive on the flaws that exist in our system. Majority of muslims (whether modern or traditional), christians, journalists, businessmen and politicians form this category.

Out of the above categories, I believe that the first two categories can be tackled and their flawed thinking can be appropriately rectified; however, the people in the last category do seem to be beyond repair.  

I have had a chance to interact with people from all of the above categories and I believe that the first step towards delivering justice to motherland will be by rectifying the flawed thought processes of first two categories. If the first two categories understand the dangerous design, then we can automatically nullify the purpose of the entire system and machinery that Congress has created over the years. 

In order to rectify the thought process, we must understand the mind of a secular OR should I say the pseudo secular. This will serve dual purposes viz. deconstruction of flaws in their thought processes and reconstruction or revitalization of true Bharatiya identity in them. Once we achieve these purposes, we will succeed in forming a united front against Congress and other fake parties such as AAP, SP, BSP etc. 

For the same, I would like to highlight the following arguments that are favorites of Pseudo seculars: 

Indians are born corrupt

This is one of the most common line of defense of pseudos and pessimists. Their wrongly bred inferiority complex helps them to talk good of Western values and denounce anything that is Indian OR Indian value system based. Therefore, their inferiority complex is the driver of their confidence which makes them sound prophetic, as if India will continue to remain a corrupt country. Moreover, they discourage others to fight within the system.   

Educated and Good people should not enter politics because all politicians are bad
This is one of the most absurd and naive arguments I have come across from the seculars. Such an argument is a result of 'Nothing left to defend' situation, i.e. when the seculars have nothing left to defend Congress, they will pronounce that every Politician is corrupt whether in BJP OR Congress leaving no room for you to take the discussion forward. My simple counter question to their argument is that if educated people are prohibited from entering Politics, then what kind of environment are you leaving for your next generation.

People should first change from within and bring positive attitudinal change in others

Again when "Nothing left to Defend" situation wherein the seculars will argue that we need to stop giving bribes in order to get our work done. Of course, we should do that but aren't the political leaders responsible for the welfare of the common man. If the common man has to suffer because of the system, then he has the right to punish the people who run such a system. From another perspective, India is witnessing multiple challenges in the form of low foreign investment, high inflation and unstable business environment. 

Under these circumstances, what do the seculars favor -- that we should stop buying onions, pulses and other commodities. We should refrain from eating onions and pulses as it will be the perfect example of changing ourselves and as a result corruption will end automatically. We should not drive cars in the night in order to control fuel consumption but the Oil PSUs have the freedom to suffer losses and the government has the freedom to increase oil prices. 

Will our control on the consumption of OIL stop this moronic government from looting us? Come'on guys, are you living in fairyland or what?

Terror has no religion
This is one of the most popular arguments of seculars. Every time a terrorist strikes our motherland, our intellectual seculars will jump to say that terror has no religion. Even Hindus have committed terrorist strikes and killed innocent people. This is comparing Apples with Oranges. 

Tell me guys, if Hindus are Fanatics then what is the extent of damage (in terms of loss of lives) that has been caused by the so-called Fanatic Hindus? While looking at this answer, do analyse the history of Islam and the extent of damage it has caused in terms of loss of innocent lives. If this doesn't satisfy you, then you can continue to live in the Fairy tale world of secularism.

You are not a Hindu if you believe in retaliatory methods of resolving conflicts

Whenever the seculars start losing the arguments, they will narrow down the definition of Hinduism. They will cite example of Gandhi's non-violent struggle against the British but conveniently ignore the violence that resulted from India's partition. They will ignore that Gandhi was responsible for this partition. Then on this basis, how come Gandhi becomes the beacon of non-violence.

Moreover, how many Hindu homes truly worship Gandhi as a GOD? How many Hindus accept Gandhi's doctrine of non-violence as a word of GOD? If that is not the case, then who gives these seculars the right to twist Gandhi's philosophy for suppressing Hindu anger? 

I want to ask these Seculars to name one Hindu GOD who has not resorted to war in case of a requirement. Hindus do believe that WAR should be the last option but at the same time HINDUS should not be shy of fighting if they realize that the enemy is not going to understand peace (OR Pyaar kee Bhasha).

Hindus suffering continues in SP ruled Uttar Pradesh

The recent chain of events that have taken place in Muzaffarnagar and other parts of UP indicate disturbing emerging trends in UP's societal landscape. The events clearly highlight that the so-called minority community (muslims) is not so secular in places where it is in majority or where it is even 30-40% of the total population. 

According to an MHA report on communal riots and crime against women, the state of UP witnessed the maximum number of such riots (104) in comparison to other Indian states during 2012. This is an alarming trend, which if not restrained, could result in further escalation of the conflict between Hindus and muslims. Recent events in UP have further increased tensions between Hindus and muslims which highlight the existence of a strong undercurrent. Eve-teasing and rape of Hindu girls have been the root cause for these clashes (which clearly indicates the application of Love Jihad and Rape techniques to bring the Hindu women under muslim control). 

Please find below a brief version of the events that resulted in the escalation of conflicts between Hindus and Muslims:

Some muslim youngsters regularly eve-teased Hindu Jat school girls during their journey to and from schools. When the girls reported this to their family members, their brothers started escorting them to school. However, this did not stop the muslims from passing lewd remarks. The brothers (Gaurav and Sachin) of the girl confronted Sahnawaz Qureshi (one of the offenders); however, as the fight escalated, they killed the offender. 

Meanwhile, other members of muslim community gathered and chased down Gaurav and Sachin and then brutally killed them. This clearly indicates that muslims supported the criminal minded Qureshi and other muslim offenders. Moreover, they were unwilling to cooperate with Hindu Jats in identifying and punishing other culprits. The Hindus also tried to file FIR but their requests were ignored by the police which was under the command of a muslim SSP. 

As a result, the Hindu Jats organized a Mahapanchayat to counter the growing menace of eve-teasing of Hindu girls in muslim dominated areas. At the same time, the muslims devised an ambush strategy to kill more Hindus in order to discourage them from taking any sort of corrective action. The muslims hid in mosques with weapons and other ammunition to ambush Hindu Jats and killed some of the Hindus in their usual cowardly manner. The killings further angered the Hindus and hence began the riots. 

Till the time, Hindus didn't respond, no action was taken but the moment Hindus started retaliating, the SP government took help of CRPF and Army to suppress Hindu anger.

On the other hand, a number of Hindus from muslim dominated villages and towns are being asked to relocate to other locations on the pretext of avoiding riots. Practically, these muslim dominated villages will become 100% muslim and Muzaffarnagar will become 100% Islamized in another 3 to 5 years. 

In such a scenario, what is the guarantee that people of Muzaffarnagar will not demand independence and call all this rioting a freedom struggle.

I am not surprised with the growing aggression of muslims in UP as they seem to have crossed the minimum threshold level of 20% of total population in the state. The following are some of the factors (together) that have contributed to this increasingly aggressive behavior: 

1. Appeasement politics through mindless introduction of pro-muslims policies in order to garner their votes
2. Increasing influence of muslim leaders (who are part of the ruling party) in the state affairs
3. Growing share of muslim population in various parts of UP

While we can attribute the increasing number of riots to failure of state government, the growing confidence of muslims to fight with Hindus can also not be ignored. The increasing number of riots clearly indicate execution of a plan which is an inseparable part of the sub-conscious of every muslim.

In order to understand the natural sub-conscious plan of muslims, we must understand their behavior when they are at different levels of population. This is further explained below:

1. When in Minority (less than 20%): 
1. Play the victim card to gain the sympathy of political heads. 
2. Vote as a group in favor of one leader to ensure that he wins and once he wins, pressurize him to introduce policies favorable to Islam. 
3. Split the votes of majority community (Hindus) to ensure that they do not get a strong voice on a political platform.
4. Use Love Jihad to get Hindu women under their fold.
2. When muslims exceed the minimum threshold of 20% (between 20% and 50%): 
1. Become more vocal about their rights based on Islam. 
2. Initiate aggression and hostility towards other communities such as Hindus, Christians and others. 
3. Demand implementation of Shariah 
4. Adopt techniques such as love jihad, rape and rioting to provoke members of the other religion (in India's case, it is Hindus) and then later on try to show themselves as sufferers in the hands of majority.
5. Blackmail the authorities on the pretext of "Law and Order" issues to avoid justified punishment for their crimes. 
6. As a result, the leader does not take any action which encourages other Muslims to commit similar crimes. 
3. When in Majority (more than 50%) -- (Ethnic Cleansing Phase)
1. Muslims will start implementing their goals more aggressively. 
2. Blackmail political leaders, suppress other communities and implement Shariah in spite of secular governments. 
3. Make life of minorities miserable through kidnap, rape and forced marriages of Hindu females with Muslim males. 
4. Provide all facilities to people of their religion but ignore Hindus, Christians or others. 
5. Ask Hindus to convert to Islam to be able to get better education, roads, infrastructure and finance. 
6. Convert Hindus or murder them to ensure the hegemony of Islam

Currently, muslims are at level 2 in UP; however, they have already initiated suppression of Hindus to gain control of the state. This is primarily because the ruling party (SP) is under strong influence of some muslim leaders (Azam Khan). "Law and Order" is in bad shape and a number of riots have taken place under the leadership of Akhilesh Yadav.  

The immediate rectification of UP situation lies in the imposing President's rule. This is because SP is protecting the aggressors (muslims) and punishing the victims (Hindus). Therefore, SP has lost all the moral right to rule UP due to the increasingly deteriorating "Law and Order" situation as well as Hindus' lack of trust in relation to a fair investigation into these riots.

Rape - An outcome of a Sick Society

Rapes have become a widespread phenomenon in India. Quite often, we hear of rape news from different cities, towns and villages of our country. While the government and administration has certainly failed to provide a safe environment to the citizens, we (as Indian citizens) have also not actively participated in creating a secure and safe environment in the country. Government's attitude is apathetic (no doubt) but we are also more or less in the same league. 

The fact that many passersby did not even act after seeing a girl (lying near a road in unbearable pain), who was brutally raped and thrown out of a moving bus, only indicates the extent of self-centered abyss that we have fallen into. The fact that those on Police duty, on that fateful night, argued with each other regarding the jurisdiction area of the crime only indicates their lack of sense for humanity (leave alone the country). And even after Delhi gang rape, we as a society have created a new low in Mumbai. 

Now (after the Mumbai rape case), a new cycle of protests and outcries had begun. But isn't this simply a reaction of our frustration? And can we really reduce the rape incidents through this reactionary approach? I have pondered over these two questions for a long period of time and the answer that I get is that such protests are not effective instruments to force the government to improve governance. 

Protests can get you limelight but they will not help you in ending the menace of rape. 

Rape is not only demeaning to the victim but it is also demeaning to our culture as it questions the potency of Indians as responsible, active and effective citizens. Rapes highlight our inability to protect our sisters and daughters. The consistency of such events also indicate the existence of a deeper malaise that exists in our society. In order to remove this malaise, we must be aggressive in first preventing rapes but we must also focus on the root cause of this disease. 

Preventing Rapes
For preventing rapes, we must develop an offense mechanism that targets the offender OR prospective offender from four different directions, that is, governmental, legal, administrative and societal. A well planned and coordinated mechanism will leave no scope for the offender. While government, legal and administration will play a very prominent role, the stakeholders (i.e. us, the common people) of the society will need to take the lead in the prevention of any such rape attempt. 

Once, we take the lead we can force the government, legal and administrative systems to adapt according to the changing situations. We can force them to create an environment that minimizes the possibility of rape. 'What we should do and How we should do' is something that I intend to take in another article; however, one thing is absolutely clear that the preventing rape has to start with strong measures that are taken at societal level. 

A crime whose origin is the Society has to end with the help of Society only.

Target the Root Cause 
Once we have established a safe and secure environment for the citizens, then our target will be the root cause of such crimes. It is difficult to identify a single reason responsible for these crimes, therefore, in my viewpoint, a number of negative influences have collaborated to give rise to this evil. This is the principal reason for the spurt in the number of rape incidents. However, I would definitely like to highlight the negative influences that have led to such a situation:

Lack of adequate education for all 
Education is important because it not only improves the knowledge of the people (specifically, the kids) but it also helps them to give shape to their conduct in the society. While getting good marks is relevant in a competitive society, one can not ignore values to stay in competition. In India, kids education has to improve across variety of areas, for example, aptitude identification and development, grades, personality development, and values. While the teachers play a very prominent role, it is the family which is a more fertile ground for value based education. 

Erosion of values (at the family level) during the early stages of a child
Scientific research has proved that a child is most receptive to learning new things during the first five years of his life. While a person learns the entire life, his rate of learning and the ability to grasp new concepts declines as he becomes older. The learning in the formative years primarily comes from the family, therefore, the onus of social conduct of an adult is more with the family. The growing dominance of materialism and fulfillment of desires has resulted in a 'No holds barred' attitude. As a result, every family has become more focused on desire fulfillment which has facilitated the process of giving up the treasure of our values.

Lack of connect with Ancient Indian Culture
India has a rich cultural heritage which has sustained for more than 10,000 years. However, the concepts, philosophies and the beauty of our culture got distorted due to passage of time and our interaction with people from other civilizations. Nonetheless, time has arrived that we revisit our old Indian tradition and reset our living style and habits according to VEDAS and other scriptures. While connecting with our past, we must also inculcate a sense of pride in our identity as Indians. This will help us to become spiritual as well as nationalists. Once we connect with our roots, we will be able to experience a positive change in our mindsets. And this should also help the anti-social elements to become better human beings.  

Perverse and blind adoption of Western culture
Globalization has resulted in the intermingling of different cultures across the world. While globalization has some inherent benefits, it carried some baggage of garbage too. For example, globalization has allowed evils such as Porn, Pubs, Friday Nights, Drugs, Liquor, Gay marriages and Debt-based consumption to flourish in the global marketplace. The prospering of such evils has created an attitude of instant gratification. As India has actively participated in the process of globalization, we have been influenced by these evils too. 

In fact, Indians have been very receptive to the evils of globalization primarily due to a superficial inferiority complex. Such blind worship of Western culture has only shaken our foundations.

Time has come for us to not just ape Western morals in the name of modernism, but to learn from our own past.

Thank You!!
