The recent speech by Varun Gandhi has created a hot debate in entire India. Be it politician, be it media person, be it so called intellectuals or be it any one. Every one is claiming to be a secular person by abusing Varun Gandhi. So according to these people, abusing Varun Gandhi is the definition of secularism.
And just see who the top listed secular leaders are: Lalu, Mulayam, Mayawati and so on. Just see the history of these leaders and you will find that they are directly involved in murder of hundreds of people. So a criminal can be a secular in India. Their sole political agenda is based on caste or religion. Whenever these people open their mouth, expect some bad mouthed words. Other parties claiming to be secular are CPM, CPI, DMK, NCP and in fact all the parties in India are so called secular (in Adwani’s word pseudo-secular). So Karunanidhi is a secular leader. Though he is accused of killing Rajiv Gandhi and has close relation with LTTE (a terrorist organization), he claims himself as a secular. So in India even a terrorist can become a secular. Now move to the Communist and Maoist parties. They too call themselves as secular. And because of their secularism, India is a home of 20 million Bangladeshis. And they are so secular that they were with China in 1962 war, because according to them China is a secular country. So even at war time they were secular. Sharad Pawar is also a secular. The brain behind the MNS is a secular person. The person, who has opposed to book Raj Thackrey under NSA, is in favour to book Varun Gandhi under NSA. Because according to him killing north Indian people is absolutely secular. The list is so longer to even discuss.
If you look at the leaders and their speeches, you will find that BJP and National Conference are most secular in these lots. It’s very rare that a top rung BJP leader has talked something about a religion (be it about Hindu or Muslim). Whenever the so called seculars like Lalu, Mulayam, Mayawati, Praksh Karat, Arjun Singh, Sharad Pawar open their mouth, they will talk about minority (though according to them minority means Muslims). Though, they have never done any thing for the minority. Lalu was in power for 15 years in Bihar. His main vote bank was Yadav-Muslim combination. But what is his contribution towards these communities; he made most of the youths from these communities as criminals. So they are now in jails. Same is the situation with Mulayam and Mayawati. The situation of CPM is not better too.
Now let’s talk about most secular of them all: obviously Congress. The party, which has divided the country on the basis of religion, is claiming to be a secular. The party, which has massacred thousands of Sikhs in 1984 riots and thousands of Muslims in various riots in the country, is claiming to be a secular. Just look at the history of Congress and you will find that even a terrorist organisation is better than this. It was Congress, which had created Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale for its political benefits. It was Congress, which had created Bal Thackrey for its political benefits. Now it is saying that Bal Thackrey is communal person. Now again it is Congress, which has created Raj Thackrey against north Indian for its political benefits. In fact they are the firm believer of “divide and rule” policy. They have divided our country on the basis of caste, region, religion, language just for their political benefits. It was Congress, which had created LTTE. It has political tie-up with ULFA in Assam. In fact when you look up in the history it has done every thing to be in power. It has invented booth looting in election. It was involved in hundreds of political murders. It had started buying MP’s to form the government. The list is so longer.
And if you are talking about politics and that too with secularism, you can’t leave one thing. And that is Nehru-Gandhi family. The so called most secular family of India. Though, I feel the opposite. Just look at their family diagram. Indira Gandhi was a Hindu and his husband was a Parsi. Sonia Gandhi (Edvige Antonia Albina Maino) is a Christian and Maneka Gandhi is a Sikh.
From a plain mathematical calculation, Sanjay Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi was a 50% Hindu and 50% Parsi. So,Priyanka and Rahul is 50% Christian + 25% Parsi + 25% Hindu. Varun is 50% Sikh + 25% Parsi + 25% Hindu.
If you consider India as patriarchal society, then all of them are Parsi. If you consider India as matriarchal society, Sanjay and Rajiv were Hindu, Priyanka and Rahul are Christian, Varun is a Sikh.
From no calculation, they are Hindus. But they are claiming to be a Hindu. It’s not like they are the great believers of Hinduism, they are Hindu just for vote bank. By this they are accepting that India is a communal country. Otherwise, Rahul would have been a Robert and Priyanka would have been a Pamela. The case is not so. Even Antonia Albina Maino has changed her name to Sonia Gandhi. We don’t need better proof of our communalism than this.
Now let’s move to the media and so called intellectuals of our country. If one had been followed the news channels on the issue of secularism, he will say for sure that no doubt India is a secular country (t least in talk). The country which is divided on the basis of everything is claiming to be secular. We are simple the country of racists. At least 1 billion out of 1.1 billion people is biased on caste, region, religion, language etc (even on veg and non-veg). But whenever we talk on TV we suddenly become a secular. According to us if you can talk about secularism, you are qualified to be a secular. You don’t need to implement it. Varun Gandhi hasn’t come from outside. He knows our feeling and that’s why he has opted for such a fool language. He is neither the first nor the last politician to do this. So abusing him is not a solution, the solution lies within us. If we want secular leaders, we have to be secular and that too in reality (not in words). Talking secularism is not the answer at all.
In the last I will like to say just one thing that a country which has laws on the basis of religion like Hindu Laws, Muslim Laws can’t be a secular country. In the country where if somebody talk about Hinduism he is declared as fundamentalist whereas if the same person talk about minority (basically Muslims as per most prevalent political definition) he is called secular.
I would like to touch upon a very important point where roots of such pseudo-thinking are attached. The present form of history taught in our colleges and universities is written by colonial western historians. They left no stone unturned to create false history and propaganda to help justify the continued rule of the British over Indians. The objective was to demean Indian race, Indian culture and basic tenets to which Hindus are attached say Vedas in order to get political mileage.
Today’s most so called secular politicians are the breed which is created by this falsified system. It is a deplorable fact that no efforts are being ever made after independence to correct the blunders done by British in writing the present texts of Indian history.I strongly believe that till we do not make sincere efforts is removing the anomalies from our education system we cannot generate rastrapremi leaders. The present form of education system does not foster the feeling of “proud Indian”.
