In Modi’s Victory is India’s Victory! Dr. Dharmveer

modi

!
It is ludicrous to see people in the country debating on the capabilities required for the
position of India’s Prime Minister. In a country where Manmohan Singh could remain
the Prime Minister for 10 years, this discussion is a sheer waste of time and energy.
During his tenure, capabilities of the Prime Minister became a popular subject of
mockery and ridicule in media. As an example, a journalist once asked Manmohan
Singh, “What is two plus two?” He answered, “It should be four but let me first confirm it
with Sonia ji”. When a person like him can become India’s Prime Minister, then surely
there should be no doubt on the candidature of Narendra Modi. The only requirement
here is a majority in Parliament, capability is immaterial.! !
If someone thinks being an economist justifies Manmohan Singh’s capability to be the
Prime Minister, it is naiveté. This economist has only contributed in further ruining our
economy. There are scores of people who, in name, are the officers of the Government
of India but actually serve the American interests. Having worked earlier for them in
Institutions like the World Bank etc., they still take pride in taking orders from them.
Whether it is Mr. Manmohan Singh or Mr. Ahluwalia of the Planning Commission or our
Finance Minister, Mr. P Chindambaram, their loyalties lie with America rather than
India. Manmohan Singh left no stone unturned to achieve the Nuclear deal with the US.
He went so far as to bribe for the vote but ultimately fulfilled the US desire to accomplish
the deal. Similarly for FDI, the government bent over backwards to ensure that it was in
accordance with America’s wishes, completely neglecting Indian interests. All regional
Governments, belonging to the Opposition parties, opposed this decision, but Mr. Singh
did not heed anyone and went ahead with it. Is this the eligibility and qualification we are
talking about?! !
In India, normally, the President is a nominal head, but for the first time, India’s Prime
Minister became one. Mr. Manmohan Singh held the office but the real power remained
with Sonia Gandhi. The country in reality was being run from 10, Janpath. The decisions
taken there were released from the PMO. To be a part of Sonia Gandhi’s Council (as is
now revealed in Mr. Baru’s book: The Accidental Prime Minister), one did not have to
contest an election or be a Cabinet Minister. Being her loyalist was good enough. This
membership however had one clause – one needed to hate India and everything Indian.
If one’s heart filled with hatred on hearing the word “Hindu”, then no other qualification
was required. The greater your efforts to disintegrate India and Hindus, the more points
you gained. The perfect example of this is the “Communal violence Bill”. Sonia Gandhi
and her team would forever regret not being able to pass this bill. Efforts to shut all
Hindu Institutions and organizations, spending the offerings made to the temples for
spreading Islam and Christianity, treasury of the temples being spent on Madarsas and
missionaries, these have been the major contributions of this Government. Maligning
the image of Hindu saints and Institutions, putting Hindu reformers in jail in the name of
“Hindu Terrorism” and charging them with false accusations is what the Government has
done in the last ten years. Is this the qualification required for India’s top job?! !
“Minorities have the first right to this country’s resources” – This ideal statement by
India’s Prime Minister is the result of the policies implemented by his Government.
Never before in the history of India, were the terrorists and traitors bestowed with so
much honor and wealth as has been done by this Government, all in the name of being
from a minority community. It was only possible in Sonia’s and Manmohan’s
Government for a nation to declare its majority population as terrorists and the actual
terrorists as innocent. In a recent interview, Mr. RN Singh, who was until very recently
an officer of RAW (India’s external intelligence Agency), made a most startling
revelation on Mumbai’s 26/11 attacks: the Manmohan Singh Government and Sonia
Gandhi had planned to declare the Mumbai attack as a Hindu Terrorist Attack.
According to this plan, Ajmal Kasab was to commit suicide, then there would have been
no proof of who was behind the attack and it could have been easily termed as an
attack by the Hindu Terrorists. It would have had two advantages: Islamic Terrorism
would have been spared from another act of disgrace and all Muslim votes would have
come to the Congress. The Hindus would have borne the brunt of the incident and could
have easily been put at par with Islamic Terrorism. Shri RN Singh also revealed that
there is an ongoing conspiracy to create a history of Hindu terrorism. The Malegaon
blasts and then the Samajhauta Express accident were both declared as Hindu terrorist
acts. Some army officials were accused of being co-conspirators. It was said that they
stole RDX from the army. This is a baseless allegation, as RDX is not even used by the
army. However these people were and are still being arrested, jailed and tortured. Is
this the qualification and eligibility of Manmohan Singh that we are talking about?! !
Criticizing the Indian Army and lowering its morale, restricting and interfering with the
Army actions on the borders, unprecedented corruption and nepotism in the purchase of
Aircrafts, submarines and helicopters – They did everything in their power to weaken the
army. Humiliating its own Army General on some random issue and appointing corrupt
officials in his place is dishonesty and treason towards one’s own country. Being a
traitor is the sole qualification that he has. ! !
Manmohan Singh’s government conveniently ignored the attacks and tortures on our
soldiers by China, Pakistan and Bangladesh. China has been repeatedly encroaching
our borders. Forget about retaliation, the government did not even register a token
protest. Only those who have no respect and love for their country can behave like that. ! !
Under their skewed policies of Muslim appeasement at all cost, the Government
destroyed the entire security structure of the country. With fake encounters and a pro
terrorist policy, it made the Intelligence Bureau (India’s internal security agency) fight
with RAW (Research Analysis Wing, External security agency of India) and with the CBI.
It not only undermined the reputation and prestige of these services, but lowered the
morale of the officers working in them, making India even more vulnerable. It had no
scruples in humiliating those who sacrificed their lives for the country. They were not
even spared posthumously. The terrorism in Punjab could not have been tackled without
a brave and dedicated officer like Mr. Gill. Even he was not spared. A low level officer
was instigated to accuse him of the death of innocent people in fake encounters. There
is no security apparatus that has not been systematically destroyed and no department
whose officers have not been left disenchanted. On various international fora, in the
parliament, foreign missions and other platforms, they talked again and again about
saffron terror, Hindu Terror and RSS terror. Hindus have been made synonymous with
terrorism and RSS has been portrayed as the training ground for Hindu terrorists. This
is the game plan through which they plan to rule this nation. ! !
Whilst patriots were being punished for doing their duties, the traitors were being
showered with awards and honors. Dr. Binayak Sen, a known Maoist sympathizer and
activist, was arrested on account of his anti-national activities. Human Rights agencies
worked over-night to get him released and even came to India to inspect our justice
system. Finally when released on bail, it was celebrated as justice having prevailed. On
his release, Dr. Binayak Sen was promplty made a member of the Planning
Commission. He is now working towards punishing the people who work for the country.! !
India is being attacked by terrorists and they are being protected by the Government
and the NGOs. This is a strange country where its own Government first invites
terrorists, then provides them protection by standing between the terrorists and
judiciary. Our forces are sent on the borders with their hands tied. The terrorists decide
the number of soldiers and army posts for different areas. For instance, though the
armed forces have been successful in crushing the terrorist movement in Kashmir, the
only credit they ever got was that of destroying innocent lives. The Armed Forces
Special Act, which has helped in nabbing terrorists, is seen as a violation of Human
Rights. Nowadays we hear voices saying that the number of army men in Kashmir
needs to be reduced and the Armed Forces Special Act to be expunged. Kashmir being
a part of India is being contested by those organizations which are funded by terrorist
organizations. Prashant Bhushan, a known terrorist sympathizer, has no qualms in
declaring Kashmir a part of Pakistan. His political organization “AAP” shows Kashmir as
a part of Pakistan. Is providing patronage to anti nationals the only qualification to be
India’s Prime Minister?!
!
The Government forbids our soldiers from opening fire. It says if you have to fire, fire
slowly. Army is still to understand what is meant by that. It is a gross misfortune and
injustice to our soldiers that if they act under the instructions of the Government,
innocent people lose their lives and they are termed inefficient. If they do their duty and
kill terrorists, they face legal action for causing fake encounters. This Government
naturally considers the life of a single terrorist far more valuable than the lives of
hundreds of innocent men and women.! !
During Punjab insurgency about 20,000–25,000 people lost their lives. In Kashmir,
40,000 people died due to terror attacks. Naxalites have killed thousands in different
parts of India. No Government, no NGO or Human Rights Group talks about them, their
rights and our duty towards them. When a terrorist is killed in an encounter, NGOs,
Human Rights Groups and even foreign Governments come forward to his defense. Not
to mention the Government of India being the front runner. Laws are normally there to
protect the citizens of the country; the only law that is an exception is the “Human
Rights Law”. No other law has been abused the way this law has been. The primary
purpose of this law is to protect the terrorists. It is safe to say that it has become the first
and the last refuge of the scoundrels masquerading as the Government of India and
Non-Governmental Organizations. They get funding for providing protection to terrorists.
People of India don’t mean anything to these self-serving groups. We need a law that
protects India and the Indians who fight for the country and this certainly cannot be
done by this Government. ! !
Today, using these laws we have been enslaved by these organizations and people,
who are keen on breaking India into fragments. Today more than ever we need
someone who calls this country as his own, who stands for this country, represents this
country and believes in it. We need someone who can become a symbol of a capable,
strong and great nation.! !
For the last 15 years there is only one person who has been fighting these anti national
forces. Yes he is not a top notch economist and doesn’t hold a foreign degree, the
degree that is awarded only by USA’s approval. He has been called harbinger of death,
a terrorist and Hitler. Muslims and Christians call him an enemy of the minority
communities. For the last 10 years, the Government of India has left no stone unturned
to demonize him. All Government agencies have been trying to prove him guilty. All
Commissions, foreign Governments, Institutions want to see him behind bars. To enable
this, the Supreme Court appointed the SIT outside of Gujarat. No Literature Fest, no
news article or program, no event is complete without denouncing him. To the pseudo
intelligentsia of this nation, his name is synonymous with evil and terrorism. Christians
don’t trust him and Muslims see him as their enemy. Politically he is a pariah. His own
party people consider him arrogant. Governments of Europe and United States, all
news channels, all newspapers, all leading politicians, foreign journals, and his own
party men have used all their might to destroy him, to defeat and demean him. The
reporters even found out his estranged wife, leveled snooping charges, and he is still
standing unfazed, undefeated and firm. He is challenging his enemies. Is this quality not
enough to be the Prime Minister of India? Narendra Modi is the Arjun of this
Mahabharat. He is heard saying like Arjuna – ‘Neither will I run away nor will I plead!!

It was not Mahatma Gandhi who started the struggle for India’s independence

not mahatma

Author : Dr. Vibhu

The accuracy of the history of India as, contained in modern-day records, has been much criticised over the decades since India freed itself from British colonisation. The ‘official’ version, as accepted both in India and abroad, needs re-evaluation; as is always the case in dealing with the question ‘what is the truth?’ considerable intellectual integrity will be required to chart a course through this controversy.

To begin with, it must be remembered that India has – in truth – secured independence twice over, not once. The first victory was that of gaining freedom from Islamic rule by the Mughal dynasty; the contribution of the Sikhs in Punjab deserves to be singled out as being key in this success. Guru Gobind Singh must be hailed for the greatness of his leadership, and India should be eternally grateful to the Sikh Gurus and their people for conducting that struggle.

Whenever India’s Independence is celebrated, tribute must be paid to Maharishi Svami Dayanand for being the true pioneer of this struggle. Sadly, outside of the circles of the Arya Samaj movement, India seems to be guilty of overlooking this fact. The role of the Arya Samaj in the latter part of the 19th century in beginning the fight against British rule was profound. This article focuses on one example of its work; the effect of a book written by Dayanand in 1875.

The Arya-abhivinaya is a collection of 108 mantras from the Vedas that Svami Dayanand translated into Hindi. As a book, it is most notable for the inspirational style of the commentary that the author uses to explain each mantra in detail; which is why it galvanised many of India’s revolutionaries over coming generations. These patriots used it as a source of solace to drive them on the selfless path of service to the motherland. Two stories illustrate this well.

Firstly is the fact that Ram-Prasaad Bismil, that great young crusader for the freedom of India, used to read Arya-abhivinaya every day. The publisher’s note in the book’s English translation written by Satyananda Shastri in 1971 describes the inspiration Bismil gained from one of the mantras covered by Svami Dayanand in his book: This is why he was dauntless even in the face of death: Listen to the immortal roaring of this lion-hearted indomitable young martyr. He sang the following memorable stanza, even at the altar of death (just before he was hanged for treason):

Maalik terii razaa rahe aur tuu hii tuu rahe. Baaqii naa main rahuun na merii aarzuu rahe. [O Almighty God, you are eternally unchanging. May only, in this world, your will prevail and of none else. I am mortal; I surrender to You. I do not wish to survive any more nor do I wish any of my desires to outlive me.]

The second example is a case prosecuted for sedition, by the British authorities against members of the Arya Samaj in the district of Patiala, Punjab in 1907. Incredibly, the evidence submitted by the prosecution was a collection of patriotic quotations from the Arya-abhivinaya. It was alleged that the Arya Samaj was a seditious society, and that it wanted to overthrow the British Government in India because its members prayed the following prayer daily:

….O Supreme God, You are the greatest ruler among all worldly rulers. Kindly instil us with appropriate courage, fortitude, morality, courtesy, prowess, physical strength and mental stamina and many other such virtues, so that, we may remain independent and enjoy sovereign imperial sway. May no foreigner come to our country to rule over us, and may we never lose political independence and be enslaved by foreigners!….

Of course, this commentary is none other than Dayanand’s elucidation of mantra 38.14 of Yajur Veda. So, it can be seen that by 1875, well over half a century before Gandhi’s movement peaked, Svami Dayanand had already made his clarion call to North India to begin to resist British rule.

Dayanand’s great legacy is highlighted by the sentences that follow further on in the same paragraph explaining this mantra: ….Also, kindly bless us with independence in our own national affairs and freedom to visit other countries at will. May we able to manage our political and administrative affairs ourselves! May there be excellent men and women to do the needful in this regard, so that, our nation may never suffer for want of anything we need. O Master of all, please provide for our political bodies statesmen equipped with perfect learning and other requisite qualities. May our warriors and administrators, endowed with resourcefulness and foresight, excel in valour and other virtues….

Could any words ring any more true? Even today, with the malign influence of western corporations, this timeless masterpiece of wisdom surely must resonate – not only for the India of today but for political administrations of all nations of the world – for all time.

It must be asked why Dayanand has been ‘written out’ of the text-books of history that survive in India from the time of the British Raj. The answer simply is that a key plank of Britain’s strategy, for maintaining its grip on India in the very long term, was to try and make Christianity the national religion of India. For this to succeed, Dayanand’s aim of uniting all the people of India under one God (and thus one faith, the Vedic Dharma) by inspiring them to (re)turn to the Vedas would have to be thwarted. The British Government even went to the lengths of commissioning a German Christian scholar of Sanksrit – Prof. Max Muller – to write a translation of the Vedas that opposed Dayanand’s interpretation; much of Muller’s work clearly makes the judgement that Christian thought is of a superior quality to that of India’s.

A startling example of evidence of such prejudice is contained in a book by T. Williams titled Exposure of Dayanand Sarasvati and his followers (Both as to their Deliberate Falsification of the Rigveda and their immorality) published in 1889 in Delhi. Dayanand’s translation of the mantra RigVeda 10:10:10 is that the word yama denotes husband and yami denotes wife. Williams, however, is scathingly critical of this. He objects: ‘I have then shown that the speakers throughout this dialogue, are twins, a brother and a sister. The sister Yami desires ardently that her brother Yama should sexually lie with her….’

Such was the type of abuse, then, that his British detractors were directing at Dayanand a few years after his death, a measure of how intimidated the British authorities were by the Arya Samaj movement well before Gandhi arrived on the scene. This leaves us with this question. Can the history books – written by the British, and left as a legacy to India, and which are being used to teach history to Indian children to this day – be trusted? Even more heart-breaking is that this version of history is the only officially accepted one in India today.

Perhaps Gujarat’s recent decision to celebrate the memory of the great Sardar Vallabhai Patel will be the catalyst for India to likewise go on and place on its highest pedestal, its greatest son of recent millennia, Dayanand Saraswati.
