Anna Hazare condemned for ‘endorsing’ Narendra Modi

By TCN News,

Mumbai: Several academics, activists, artists and intellectuals have strongly condemned the recently reported statement of veteran anti-corruption social activist Anna Hazare in which he had allegedly endorsed Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi for his ‘corruption-free’ administration in the state.

“We, academics, activists, artists and intellectuals strongly condemn the recently reported statement made by Anna Hazareji in which he has brazenly endorsed Narendra Modi, a politician who not only symbolizes the politics of division but unconstitutional governance. For the veteran anti-corruption social activist, Hazare to endorse a politician against whom a Supreme Court led investigation into conspiracy to commit mass murder and rape, subversion of evidence and pressure and intimidation of key witnesses is still underway reveals a narrow and mercenary understanding of the meaning of corruption. Worse, given the support base of the recent high profile and highly televised event agitation, that included open support from Ram Madhav and the RSS as also Baba Ramdev, Hazare’s move could be construed as a bid to actually influence this SC-driven criminal investigation,” the activists said in a joint statement.



Anna Hazare

“Modi stands accused, and has not been yet cleared of serious charges of actively masterminding mass murder, loot and rape of 2,500 of Gujarat’s innocent citizens consciously perverting his position and power as chief minister in 2002. This and other investigations have been rigorously pursued by victim survivors of these gruesome massacres and Hazare’s statement, more than anything else rubs salt on deep wounds. Not once in the nine years since the state sponsored carnage has Modi, who has written a tear-filled communication to Hazare wiped tears from the heavy hearts of Muslim victim survivors in Gujarat. Nor has Modi even apologized for failing to perform his Constitutional duty.”

“On the issue of corruption and good governance too, Modi may yet fail the exemplary test. Allegations of serious corruption in state government schemes have been steadily documented and printed within Gujarat but have rarely made it to the headlines of national television. There has been little or no rural development in this state. In fact gauchar lands and irrigated farmlands have been stealthily taken by the government and sold off at ridiculous prices to a small club of industrialists. The ridiculously low interest loan given at the expense of five crore Gujarati taxpayers to Tata’s Nano project suggests a corrupt loan write off f public finances.”

The irony of Modi being hailed by the leader of the National Lok Pal movement is cruel since there has been no Lokayukta in Gujarat for nearly seven years! Hundreds of complaints against corruption are lying unheard in that state as the common Gujarati reels under his mercenary dictatorship. From the Sujalam Sufalam scam of 1700 crores to the NREGS boribund scam of 109 crores, the fisheries scam of 600 crores, every department has been accused of being involved in thousands of crores worth of scams. The poor and rural people of Gujarat are being sold to Modi's small coterie of friends, the industrialists. The state is in terrible debt because of his largesse to industry while 21 lakh farmers wait for compensation for the land seized from them. How then can Haraeji call Modi non-corrupt or hail his model of development?

Little or no funds have been released by the GOG to the Minority Finance Development Corporation, even less to the Gujarat State Wakf Board. No figures are provided by the state government for funds allotted to the religious minorities.

The corrosion and corruption in our system is not merely monetary but the subversion of the Indian Constitution and Constitutional Governance has been in large measure due to the unbridled and unchecked growth of state and non state actors who are sworn to partisan politics, ideology and governance. While there was more than some discomfiture felt by many of us when we saw this worthy anti-corruption movement being supported by RSS cadres and Baba Ramdev, guilty of amassing crores of money and property himself, this discomfiture increased as accusation of bus loads of supporters arriving to Jantar Mantar from Gujarat came in and finally dues were extracted by the ruler of that state, Narendra Modi, in the form of praise from Anna Hazareji, said the statement signed by Rajendra Prasad, MK Raina, John Dayal, Jerry Pinto, Henri Tiphagne, Harsh Mander, RB Sreekumar, Jawed Naqvi, Teesta Setalvad, Javed Anand and others.

Modi PR Machinery is in full swing

Modi's PR machinery is in full swing. Anything written against him will have resistance. Modi is a power hungry who will do anything to stay in power. Corruption in Gujarat is unprecedented.

Anna will be hijacked by RSS and momentum will die.

Anna Hazare's Anti-Corruption movement will eventually pass into the hands (fall like a ripe fruits into the lap of) of RSS. Then there will be too-too, main-main., and it will die after a noise. Congress will ensure that events unfold on/along that trajectory. Anna Hazare does not have the moral stature to stand up and say... I am against Corruption... and i do not want anyone divisive (whether Hindu or Muslim or Christian) to walk upto my stage... or have himself/herself photographed with me. He must refuse to be hijacked. I hope he realises it in time. If delayed it would be wolf-wolf. Both teams of RSS (BJP being the "A" Team and Congress being the "B") will ensure that Anna Hazare's movement dies a slow academic / argumentative death.

NOW... put this on the front page of Two Circles. (Quoted from The Hindu 18 Apr 2011).

"Indians are held together by a common Sanskrit-Urdu culture”

Supreme Court judge Markandey Katju on Sunday attributed simmering Hindu-Muslim tensions to a deliberate rewriting of history to project Muslim rulers as intolerant and bigoted, whereas ample evidence existed to show the reverse was true.

The judge also said that Indians were held together by a common Sanskrit-Urdu culture which guaranteed that India would always remain secular.

Justice Katju said the myth-making against Muslim rulers, which was a post-1857 British project, had been internalised in India over the years. Thus, Mahmud Ghazni's destruction of the Somnath temple was known but not the fact that Tipu Sultan gave an annual grant to 156 Hindu temples. The judge, who delivered the valedictory address at a conference held to mark the silver jubilee of the Institute of Objective Studies, buttressed his arguments with examples quoted from D.N. Pande's History in the Service of Imperialism.

Dr. Pande, who summarised his conclusions in a lecture to members of the Rajya Sabha in 1977, had said: “Thus under a definite policy the Indian history textbooks were so falsified and distorted as to give an impression that the medieval period of Indian history was full of atrocities committed by Muslim rulers on their Hindu subjects and the Hindus had to suffer terrible indignities under Islamic rule.”

Justice Katju said Dr. Pande came upon the truth about Tipu Sultan in 1928 while verifying a contention — made in a history textbook authored by Dr. Har Prashad Shastri, the then head of the Sanskrit Department in Calcutta University — that during Tipu's rule 3,000 Brahmins had committed suicide to escape conversion to Islam. The only authentication Dr. Shastri could provide was that the reference was contained in the Mysore Gazetteer. But the Gazetteer contained no such reference.

Further research by Dr. Pande showed not only that Tipu paid annual grants to 156 temples, but that he enjoyed cordial relations with the Shankaracharya of Sringeri Math to whom he had addressed at least 30 letters. Dr. Shastri's book, which was in use at the time in high schools across India, was later de-prescribed. But the unsubstantiated allegation continued to masquerade as a fact in history books written later.

Justice Katju said the secular-plural character of India was guaranteed both by the Indian Constitution and the unmatched diversity of the Indian population. The judge attributed the diversity to the fact of India being a land of old immigrants, dating back to 10,000 years (Justice Katju and fellow judge Gyan Sudha Misra first propounded this thesis in a judgment, excerpts from which were carried as an op-ed article in The Hindu edition dated January 12, 2011). The diversity, reflected in the wide range of religions, castes, languages and physical attributes found among the descendants, led the founding fathers to draft a Constitution with strong federal features. “Diversity is our asset and our guarantee for staying secular,” said Justice Katju.

Earlier, a resolution passed at the conference urged the government to forthwith set up an Equal Opportunity Commission as recommended by the Rajinder Sachar Committee.

The resolution said: “The conference resolves that inclusive growth is not possible without equal opportunities being given to all sections of society, particularly minorities and other marginalised communities.”

Resist the blackest day of Indian history!

Day first it seem, Anna is demonstrating with some hostile and quarrelsome intention as a stooge and on the behest of some powerful lobby, financed, aided and abated for the 'BIG SHOW'.
In return he gracefully compromised to put RSS, symbolic picture of 'Bharat Mata' on the dais in order to attract and pleased the Hindutva forces to make the show successful.
Invited and welcomed Ram Madhav of RSS, Baba Ramdev a Bhagva Joker and Shri Shri Ravi Shankara supporter of Ram Mandir movement, opened the eyes of nationalist and non communal force.
Anna's main aide Shri Hegde is having very very close relation with 'foxy face' Advani and once he admitted present Hegde's father is like his own father, he helped Advani a lot favoured in Babri demolition case.
Former Jailer, Kiran Bedi was jumping a lot on the stage to witness her present and importance is also involved some years back, illegally admitted her daughter in prestigious MBBS course, latter warped and distort the matter.
Finally Anna's 'LOVE' to butcher Modi, exposed himself completely.
He is instrumental for communal forces, spreading anarchy in the nation, thus help to dislodge the elected government of Congress and install Modi as PM by hook or crook.
All the non communal forces must unite and resist the communal and racist forces to capture the power. If it happen, it will the blackest day of Indian history!!!

Anna, all is not well in Bihar and Gujarat. get first hand info

Anna, instead of relying on government propoganda and media (mis) reporting should visit and spend some time in Gujarat and Bihar. It seems his knowledge is just limited to Mahrashtra.

In Gujarat, one honest officer was for forced to suicide for resisting corruption.

Gujarat is the best

Gujarat is the best state in India and Mr MODI is the best CM of India as he treats Hindus and Muslims as equals. Member of Provincial Assembly of Sindh in Pakistan for 15 years,Ramsinh Sodho, resigned from Pakistan’s Sindh Assembly and came over to India in January 2011. Similarly all Gujarati Muslims unhappy in India can go to Pakistan.

we understand the pain of muslims and muslims must also have to

muslims must have to understand the pain of hindus and hindus must have to understand the pain of muslims and also all other communities likewise for eachother. When India Pakistan divided it is muslims and hindus both have been killed eachother in a mass riots then again it happend in punjab at times it was also pakistan provoked militancy in punjab, as sikhs are our taj of india we love sikhs as our real brothers but today also they ask for khalistan why we dont want sikhs also to leave india and nor we need any division of india in small states also anywhere in whole country and so muslims needs to throw the bad feelings for hindus and also for narendra modi we understand your loved ones have gone but at times chimanbhai patel was there latif sponsered mass killings has been killed many hindus and that was also a resiprocation from them also we dont consider anyside killings as good we feel very bad for both mass riots so what now, muslims needs to love modi and modi needs to love muslims more then hindus or any other communities that is the main core of indian secularisim so now modi is a son of those who have lost sons in mass killings of muslims and hindus and also he is father and mother of those who lost their dearones so now it is Mr Modi has to give a very good high rated and priced jobs plus moeny to all muslims who have lost their dearones also to hindus who have lost in such riots and make your name good and fame good and help both sides and love muslims like ever before and i request to all muslims to take back all cases against modi and let him feel he must love you all as he must give you now what dearones might have given u

Modi is good and needs to be more good for muslims first ntn4 al

We love Narendra Modi for good governance but we also are very unhappy for what happened in riots against hindus and also against muslims so we wish to say to Mr Modi what happened is happened it was really bad as at the times when chimanbhai was there latif also did such scenario for hindus which in modi government has happened for muslims, so we dont want to go in it to clarify what has happened is happened we cant rectify it but what Mr Modi can do is please find out those who have lost their relatives in mass riots from both sides of hindus and muslims and personally give them as much money as it should be good to be given to them by government to make their lives like very happy then never before by Mr Modi himself to wash his hands from any types of problems in gujarat from minority or hindus we want modi to work in gujarat as he is able administrator but we also dont forget what happened with muslims is also as a secular hindu and indian we dont consider it as good so what we request to mr modi is please for god shake tell your peoples to help those who have lost their relatives in riots and let them get a very good government jobs at a very good places at a very good priced jobs to those muslims who have really lost their relatives and let them work for gujarat and india and let them work for the country and let them feel like a love from modi to have a realisation to them that modi is not communal person it a time bad situation only.

Terrorist tag can't be removed

Reply@Kandarp: Why did USA deny visa for Nari Hatyakari Modi? If you study the history of all riots in India, the Hindutva/Brahmanical Terror Outfit(RSS) will be held responsible for all killings and massacres. Enough is enough. We will take on Brahmanical terrorists(RSS) from all fronts. Death to Hindutva/Brahmanical Terrorists(RSS).

No question of forgiving Modi

No question of forgiving Modi the idiot coward tyrrant.
Muslims donot sell burned meat of our helpless sisters
and brothers.Qisas is the solution.

anna hazare,modi and "Several academics, activists, artists"

so the same old 10 people who do not do anything useful other than make comments on others to keep their names in press.
if people were worried about RSS or Gujarati coming in bus loads why did they not join the hazare in jantarmantar by the trainloads or planeloads as they are usually used to traveling ?

The Sikh Vichar Manch does not believe or disbelieve much in astrological research work and or palmistry, may be due to lack of knowledge of the subject. But to collect knowledge is nothing wrong on any subject. Moreover, a lawyer is supposed to possess some knowledge about whatever all is happening under the sky.

My eyes did see right hand in the photograph of Social activist Anna Hazare as referred above. From watching the lines on Anna Hazare’s right hand, I could guess that Social activist Anna Hazare is very clear hearted, having long life and similarly, Social activist Anna Hazare does have exceptionally good luck line.

If I am not wrong his old age a short headline is visible, but its start seems dim or missing or discontinued.

What it indicates that Social activist Anna Hazare is because of his very good ‘heart line’ and luck line, mainly because of also his other stars signing on his right hand, he is very likely to succeed getting in passing the ‘Lokpal Bill’ to the satisfaction of all and Anna Hazare will be emerging as a ‘hero’, failing his opponents.

Provided

Social activist Anna Hazare must perform his supervisory duties well without much interacting with the media or issuing statements though he is only one among the team who can compel the government to adopt the video recording process to bring complete transparency in the system.

When, Anna Hazare says he is non-political, he is wrong to say so as I had already criticized him openly to the greater extent.

When, Anna Hazare says that the higher judiciary will not come within the preview of the ‘Lokpal Bill’, he is also wrong to say so, may not be completely. If that is the case, then, there was no need of any ‘Lokpal Bill’.

The judiciary is also already behaving more than any Lokpal due to greed and for other considerations.

Please do feel dependent on your learned team for the purpose.

With these tips, I close my views based on layman’s knowledge of palmistry.

With regards and wish you all success.
