India – The Political Game

February 25, 2016

By Padmini Arhant

The recent developments in India with political establishment sworn allegiance to enemy of humanity functioning from within and outside the nation are engaged in self-destructive course.

The incumbent administration headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi along with members of political class in the ruling and opposition at the national and state level together misinterpret mandate with misuse of power – customary in politics. 

The external forces desperate strategy to polarize society worldwide at every opportunity for vested interests spare none with representation across the spectrum actively promote discord and anti-republic agenda.

Despite fait accompli evident in status quo, supremacists instigated partisanship on social issues exacerbate protagonists, catalysts and agents’ situation with imminent failure.

Indian political power confrontation with youths and various demography from time to time is nothing more than distraction to prevent public focus and scrutiny on government and opposition parties’ performance or the lack thereof on burgeoning issues concerning people and the nation at large.

The education ministry positioned as human resources department (HRD) frequent broil with student organizations in reputable educational institutions like Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Chennai earlier, incident involving resident scholar suicide in Hyderabad University and now Jawaharlal Nehru University(JNU), New Delhi citing caste and religion based allegations prove concerted efforts to provoke and distort student activities on campus as anti-government initiative.

HRD minister Smriti Irani challenging citizenry to guess on personal profile related to own caste inviting needless speculations and possible affront regardless of the fact on origin being Sindhi and last name Irani connected to Rubin Irani (Iranian Jew), the repeat reference to subjects as Dalit or Muslim in latest controversies is the irony.

Not to mention the HRD minister prior to holding cabinet post and elevated to political spotlight was a strong advocate for none other than the so called political rival Rahul Gandhi with appearance on Indian network utilizing soap opera stardom mocked this website for empirical presentation on Congress Party and dynasty rule under the guise of democracy.

The political theater in Indian Parliament is aptly performed by small and big screen actors attracted to politics for entertainment.

HRD minister offer to quit politics upon providing evidence for links to these rows although education ministry response to these episodes has been far from rapprochement enhance theatrical enactment.

Furthermore, HRD minister entry into politics and participation in election marred with falsified statements on credentials in sworn affidavit electoral form and subsequently under oath speak volume on individual integrity and credibility of political system.

Stoking sentiments using religion, caste and creed for wanton notions is colonial tactic implemented through wilful operatives incentivized with monetary rewards and limelight.

India or for that matter any nation falling prey to deliberate crescendos to disrupt normal environment is negligence at best and acquiescence at worst in safeguarding sovereignty and democratic principles that guarantee freedom to share views on state of affairs.

The seat of democracy would foster not forbid peaceful dialogue, assembly and citizens rights to convene forums on matter political or general.

Invoking poet (Rabindranath Tagore), saint (Vivekananda) and scholar (Dr. Ambedkar)  in Parliamentary debate would be meaningful in adherence to the message from the great minds.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

India – Hegemony Run Political Establishment

September 20, 2015

By Padmini Arhant

In the previous segment, snapshot on hegemony backed regimes were presented to review reality.

Although the earlier topic only covered few among several worldwide, the facts confirm status quo.

Similarly, India apparently independent nation regardless of dominion republic declaration clarifying non-termination of foreign rule prevalent in proxy governance.

Hegemony strategy premised on control over entire political establishment bid on all factions for win win situation in the so-called election with foreign and domestic illegal funding serving political office bearers, campaign donors and incognito rulers’ interests through beguiled electorate vote.

Indian elections attract donations from myriad sources creating prime time to liquidate black money not barring counterfeit notes printing to bribe voters besides overseas funders viz. Ford foundation, Saudi Arabia and alike involvement up until now.

The political system with prominent political parties at the national and regional level forging alliances alternate positions as ruling and opposition while maintaining agenda to protect each other from accountability on corruption and criminality.

Tax revenues become personal wealth and used to gain political mileage.

For better understanding – the two major political parties Congress and BJP cited in the example.

In hegemony political screen play, direction and production – the common scheme is developing poster-figure (poster-boy) to camouflage duplicity.

With Congress Party – hegemony choice to head Indian government was former World Bank member and economist Dr. Manmohan Singh promoted as Mr. Honest and Mr. Clean later turned out to be otherwise in Coalgate scam and remaining oblivious in 2G spectrum scandal.

Finance, Defense and Foreign Affairs appointments are hegemony authorized and hence World Bank ex-officials viz. current President Pranab Mukherjee, then finance minister P. Chidambaram in key posts were least surprising due to allegiance to external authority.

Congress Party – British Raj representative A.O. Hume founded Congress originated in pre-independence India retained dynasty until today.

The Congress Party led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) term I and II (2004 – 2014) was progressive on explosive corruption scandals from top to bottom i.e. the High Command to lowest order enabling hegemony operated foreign banks and tax havens flourish at Indian population expense.

Organized crime syndicate funneled financial institutions under Congress Party chief Sonia Gandhi and UPA finance minister P. Chidambaram not to mention BJP complicity considering inaction as chief opposition sums up political collusion. 

Cash for votes not only on campaign trail but also extended in Parliament with BJP theatrical performance in an effort to absolve responsibility is a serious blow to democracy.

Congress survival rocked not from BJP or any other political group strength.  In fact, the self-inflicted damages with massive corruption unfolding despite political parties and hegemony owned media cover up, the fox could no longer hide in sheep’s clothing scenario emerged on Congress and allies’ corruption deals paving the way for hegemony alternative – BJP and coalition.

BJP – Bharatiya Janata Party with British Raj fostered RSS also dating back to colonial era like Congress is hegemony’s other wing.

Hegemony prepared to roll the dice favoring BJP candidate.  Politics finds strange bedfellows in the ambiance of adversary becoming an ally and vice versa.

Indian state Gujarat former Chief Minister Narendra Modi was hegemony approved candidate in the bogus Gujarat re-election in 2012 against pseudo contender supposedly representing common man basically to stifle average citizens’ representation.

Hegemony policy and advise to power hungry political class to ride on targeted individual’s back while the entity isolated and shunned from reference in sheer violation of free speech and democratic rights justified under false pretext is indicative of fearing expeditious self-collapse.

The piracy and plagiarism evident in copyright infringement with ideas, solutions, phrases and style from PadminiArhant.com presented as their own not to mention identity theft speaks volume on the political and personal character.

Furthermore, imitation of positive contributions without due acknowledgment is fraudulence and forgery constituting punishable crime in a civilized society in addition to burdening self with irreversible karmic effects.

Alternatively, caricature by paid actors using offensive material and platform is desperate times seeking desperate measures eventually hurting the catalysts and source. The contrived conduct poorly reflects on the promoters’ background and political embodiment.

Above all spying and 24/7 surveillance including eavesdropping and intrusion in private residence with little or no respect for other’s life is indecency and perversion emanating from political insecurity.

On the contrary, the political circle and everyone connected to them depleting national income and thriving on taxpayers funded salary and privileges not excluding sprawling mansions live discreet life cloaked in secrecy when they deserve to be on public radar.

In other activities placing the gun on other’s shoulders unleashing provocative and inflammatory sentiments is a cowardly gesture and do not necessarily safeguard the façade for what lies underneath is explicit in legacy and ongoing trend.

All actions have serious repercussions without exception.

Hegemony and delegates in Indian politics as Muslims half-brothers feign identity denying undeniable relationship with indifference to warfare imposed on people of Islamic faith worldwide.

The incumbent Indian administration recent borrowed remarks on terrorism is a cliché and disingenuous in light of latest abstinence on UN vote rather than unequivocal yeah endorsing Palestinian rights to file complaint on Israeli authorities’ atrocities with International Criminal Court of Justice.

Simultaneously Indian political apparatus at hegemony behest slight real freedom fighters like Netaji Subash Chandra Bose deemed imperialists enemy.

Juxtaposed the functionaries unduly glorify late Indian President A P J Abdul Kalam perhaps because of latter acquiescence to foreign manned Indian government’s unsavory stratagem.

Hegemony and Indian political contingency convoluted disposition is self defeating in the heightened absurdity.

The uncanny resemblance in hegemony remote rule in India cannot escape attention.

Hegemony projected ex-Prime Minister Manmohan Singh with emphasis on integrity to keep Congress headed UPA in power.

Now the 66 years old Prime Minister Narendra Modi is hegemony’s poster person to advance foreign agenda.

Nonetheless fake image and personality is a hard sell requiring hyped marketing. Anything unauthentic inevitably fizzle more so with those inclined to despotism verifiable in history serving as testimony.

Likewise, hegemony loyalists P. Chidambaram holding finance ministry during Congress tenure and same portfolio awarded to BJP’s unsuccessful candidate Arun Jaitley in the national election is pre-determined decision mocking democracy.

Not long ago hegemony slated BJP as fundamentalists, hindutva and saffron party refusing then Gujrat Chief Minister Narendra Modi travelers visa to visit United States quoting Godra communal violence as the factor.

Now in the well known political flip flop hegemony extending unprecedented rating lauding Modi governance is misnomer ignoring significant failures enumerated below.

Indian Parliament Monsoon session stymied and pronounced complete washout in the domestic front and foreign affairs – the critical high level talks between nuclear neighbors India and Pakistan – National Security Advisors meeting cancellation explains the lack of initiatives and misplaced priority.

Farmers plight with suicides that began in Congress fronted UPA duration escalated at present and war veterans hunger strike to receive fair pensions initially resisted authorizing police intervention to disperse peaceful assembly.

Modi Sarkar or government dubbed Mercantile Modi not without reasons with India’s wealthiest and leading industrialists Mukesh Ambani and Gautam Adani exerting influence and their delegations regularly accompany PM overseas tour.

Modi administration in return exchange partiality with requests to United States to list the moguls from economic, entertainment and political field in VIP category exempting them from security protocol applicable to ordinary citizens within and outside United States.

Indian political structure adapts United States political pattern with Wall Street drafting legislations through intense lobbying alongside special interests like AIPAC, NRA, religious zealots and institutions for imperial aspirations remaining firm on their respective ideology much to national and international detriment.

Viewing through Indian prism, the political parties predominantly represent the rich, famous and powerful in society.

Indian politics using caste and religion for communal divide is standard practice inherited from colonial ruler.

NDA and BJP trust deficit with Muslim community in India stems from Gujarat and Ayodhya incidents no less than counterpart Congress response towards Sikhs and Sri Lankan Tamils aiding previous Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapaksha brutal crackdown following former Prime Ministers Indira Gandhi and Rajeev Gandhi assassination.

The political tactic to address this problem is indeed uniquely deceptive.  BJP cohort All India Majilis-e-ltte(?)had-ul-Muslimeen (AIMIM) – the Hyderabad based party flamboyant President Asaduddin Owaisi and sibling Akbaruddin Owaisi are BJP leadership and RSS sponsored canons exacerbating the existing authority credibility.

Whenever politics engage in Machiavellian approach aimed at end justifying the means, these are ominous signs for precipitous decline.

The analogy using Congress and BJP applies to regional political parties with prolonged rule enforced via flawed electoral process.

Indian political chronicle too consists assassination conforming to violent removal of leaders especially Mahatma Gandhi – pioneer of peace and non-violence raising poignant question on the price the nation expected to pay upon insiders committing treason to appease foreign power.

India’s freedom from oligarchy, dynasty, religious extremism and antiquated caste orientation preserved to facilitate hegemony dominance is paramount to experience pervasive progress in the country with vast potential.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

India – Transparency and Accountability

September 10, 2015

By Padmini Arhant 

Indian political establishment ensconced in fair share of corruption scandals at national and regional level amongst ruling and opposition alike can no longer circumvent transparency and accountability.

What is relevant in transparency and accountability?

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee release of files related to Sharada scam for public scrutiny is critical rather than executing vilayathi (firangi) masters’ orders on Netaji life.

Netaji – the honorable patriot and gem amongst freedom fighters refusal to bow to tyranny epitomize courage and integrity – a rare quality in contemporary politics.  Accordingly, India’s admirable son immortalized in Indian history.

Unfortunately, the great souls sacrifice pledging their life for the country now squandered with reversal of action amongst political class nationwide.

The nation is under siege with foreign exerted authority in proxy governance fostering corruption culture.

The public wealth from various scandals beginning with Bofor, 2G spectrum, CWG, Coalgate to Vyapam Scam, Lalit Modi Saga and shielding entities involving money laundering in INEX Media connected with much publicized homicide case is national overview implicating members in the ruling and oppositions combined until now.

Not to mention the regional states political factions and governments in Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Madya Pradesh, Bihar, Uttarakhand, Chattisgarh, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu to name a few implicated in series of scams, disproportionate assets and black money stashed away in foreign accounts enabling offshore criminal syndicate profiteering while millions in India are left naked, homeless and forced into abject poverty.

Transparency and accountability is required in the political class surrender of assets setting precedence for the rest to follow in the country.

The funds recovery from political circle and allied sources due to Indian treasury would adequately provide for economic growth improving several million lives in every part of the country.

The procrastination in this context tantamount defiance in compliance of the law applicable on ordinary citizens in the nation.

Criminality in governance imposing law and order in society not only a credibility factor but also delegitimizes such functionary to serve the state and the nation.

As for the shadow power remote orchestration – when the foundation is flawed, the apparent structural fragility contributes to imminent collapse.

The enactments on international issues with collusion amongst performers in quid pro quo is illusive and self defeating in the pursuit to prolong unsustainable status.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

India – Good Governance Possible Upon Clean Governance

By Padmini Arhant

The tradition preventing progress in investigations on money laundering involving firms and political members in high profile homicide case leading to exposure of individuals in politics and companies impedes transparency and accountability.

The political trend stifling process at critical juncture when closing in on key sources behind criminal activities confirms status quo.

Governments intervention with typical actions in transfer or removal of head of the team conducting probe maintaining integrity and diligence expected in civil service proliferates corruption – the major impediment in country’s development.

The civil service – Indian Administrative Service (IAS), Indian Police Service (IPS) and Criminal Bureau of Investigation (CBI) cadre routine experience is dispatch to remote locations or forced to accept lack luster positions upon demonstrating honesty and application of law regardless of stature especially politics, economic sector and entertainment industry – entities treated above law in society premised on prominence exerting influence.

Corruption rampant in political establishment due to self granted impunity and judiciary conforming to politics diktat rather than adherence to judicial law and constitutional framework is yet another challenge for the nation in purging graft laden system.

The acquittal and exonerations of those in politics, economic and entertainment segments despite evidence and corruption legacy is a travesty of justice promoting subversion of law.

The laws only meant for mainstream population – the vulnerable and economically disadvantaged in particular emanating from unaffordability to comply with bribery demand.

Indian treasury at the central and state level depleted hurting ordinary citizens across the spectrum with complicity in prohibiting black money recovery and tax evasions held in Swiss bank accounts, Singapore hawala and offshore tax havens primarily amongst political members in the ruling and opposition alike.

The plethora of corruption scandals during Congress led UPA term I and II with continuity in the incumbent BJP, RSS and NDA government not to mention regional political factions viz. AIADMK, DMK and fragments in Tamil Nadu, the alliance in Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh entrenched in Vyapam scam and Sharada Scam tied to TMC in West Bengal …is tip of the iceberg in corruption tsunami.

The political class alliance and extraordinary favors dubbed as humanitarian call to founder and IPL chief associated with country’s most wanted underworld cartel in nefarious financial dealings subscribe to paradoxical stances while both remain fugitives defying moral arc of justice.

Criminal background and series of violations among political office bearers is hardly a concern including deliberate misrepresentation and contradictory disclosure on credentials in sworn affidavit during elections misleading electorate – the conduct ordinarily deemed perjury punishable by law instead rewarded with cabinet post mocking democracy.

The political assertion in crackdown on black money exempt self and core members deflecting civic attention from them in artful maneuver.

The political tactic linking religion and divine connotations besides contemporary practice imputing failures and negativities to targeted opponent whilst being gratuitous – hogging undue credits from the respective entity hard work and good deeds clarifies opportunism ad nauseam.

Imitation of positive attributes interpreted as flattery.  However, the gesture without acknowledgment of origin is forgery.

The innuendoes depicting discriminatory indulgence is a futile exercise and explanations in this context are farcical.

The unabated custom using caste and communalism for political mileage delineates those following antiquated hierarchy from human race.

Human being innate quality is to be humane transcending man made barriers with refrainment from societal prejudice. The resistance to acceptance and equality is civilization decline.

Condescendence and marginalization of others is reflective of internal decay. The overture on backward class is nothing more than mindset backwardness prompting insolence.  

Polarization through indoctrination is political strategy inherited from dominant forces much to sponsors and catalysts detriment.

As for anyone restricting access to worshippers in temples on caste or religion bias is essentially isolating themselves from divine grace.

The pure spirit with sincere devotion and relevantly selfless actions to humanity attains God’s blessings with or without affiliation to faith.

Temples are common premise and not personal property.  Such orientation is ignorance at best and pejorative at worst in religious concept.

In fact, God is realized within upon freedom from ego, envy, greed and hatred…the vices undermining reasoning faculty.

Furthermore, Lord Murugan aka Shanmugam or Karthik’s consort Valli is from gypsy tribe secluded in society as untouchables and backward sect.

Lord Murugan – the son of God Shiva and Shakti revered as Tamil and Hindu deity marriage to daughter from gypsy clan establish relations with not only Shiv Parivar (God Shiva’s Family) but also Lord Vishnu – Ranganathan as Murugan’s uncle.

The religious rituals and prayers for Lord Murugan i.e. Velavan with Valli is performed as eliminating Valli would be rejecting Lord Murugan and everyone related to Shiva and Shakti’s son.

This is indeed a dilemma for those upholding caste and creed as determining factor for superiority.

The society reluctance to abolish caste and segregation of God’s children being reality, the ostentatious religious rites and ceremony allude to commercial activity notwithstanding disingenuous pious disposition.

Human value evaluated on character and sacrifice to uplift lives for pervasive benefit facilitating proximity to God.

The veneration of God lacking in fairness, egalitarianism, love and respect towards all is redundant and fulfilled for self-satisfaction.

On the issue of Swach Bharat – relieving the nation from corruption and political manipulation of justice would clear pathway for holistic approach.

The initiative beginning with Parliament members implicated on corruption charges and their overt as well as covert connections to unscrupulous elements brought to public scrutiny in national domain would provide credibility.

Clean environment made possible with corruption free governance and political representation.

After all household trash disposed on to main street contributing to unhealthy and life threatening conditions cannot be contained in the absence of effective measures to efface unnatural cause.

Swach Bharat would be meaningful with swach sarkaar (clean governance) comprising political power in the ruling and opposition defining political identity.

Tamil Nadu AIADMK government irresponsible course in massive  intoxication of citizens with statewide liquor shops and state authorized violence against peaceful dissent to alcohol booths resulting in deaths and ruining families is culpable inflicting deliberate harm and suicides among citizenry. The government intentional damage is a criminal act with misuse of authority and disqualify the functionary as reliable administration to safeguard people interest.

The classic signs of proxy governance throughout India pledged allegiance to dissipating supremacy are political jargons – hindutva, backward caste, dalit, DR. Ambedkar, ‘rebel’ Subash Chandra Bose not barring the accused in criminal matter.

These are desperate times seeking disasters expediting inevitable conclusion of Dark Age.

India’s liberation from the corrupt and destructive external control with internal operatives committing treason significant to curtail indefinite suppression.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

Indian Sub Continent – India Pakistan NSA Talks Cancellation

August 24, 2015

By Padmini Arhant

India and Pakistan national security advisors talks cancellation is regrettable and reveals lack of commitment in saving lives from terrorism.

Pakistan invitation to Kashmir separatists Hurriyat Conference and factions alike prior to NSA meeting scheduled on August 24, 2015 in New Delhi and demand to include Kashmir issue in the bilateral discussion rather than focus on terror in entirety is deviation from past and present official agreements.

The recent terror attacks in India – Udhampur, Jammu and Kashmir and Gurdaspur, Punjab deserves unequivocal attention considering repeat events leading to terror networks in Pakistan.  The discourse devoted to terror incidents endangering civilian population on both sides is critical and would demonstrate Pakistan’s renewed efforts to expunge terror within state.

Furthermore, adherence to planned sessions on important matter such as terrorism without Kashmir and various problems in Indo-Pak relationship could have conveyed strong message to the world and terror sponsors as well as operatives in particular on Pakistan’s seriousness to free the nation from terror control.

Beginning with 9/11 in the United States and multiple terror activities against India and other neighbors notwithstanding terror blasts across Pakistan wreaking havoc in the country, the NSA forum was prime opportunity to exchange relevant information and devise effective strategy to purge terror.

Pakistan’s rejection of the proposal to hold exclusive summit on terrorism could be misinterpreted amongst terror groups as state complicity to terror operations inside and across the border.

The series of Line of Control violations in the frontiers cannot be slighted promoting militancy and incursion aimed at escalating tensions between two nuclear nations.

Pakistan’s statement on armed forces ability to defend national sovereignty ignores reality.

Pakistan is under siege with diverse terror organizations making life impossible for citizens in national domain and conducting terror against India and Afghanistan with ISI support.

The nation’s first enemy is the one committing treason and betray citizenry.

Pakistan’s sovereignty violated on many occasions and prominent instance being United States Abbottabad mission supposedly to capture and kill the long deceased al Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden near national defense headquarter.

NATO provocative air raid on Pakistan that resulted in several armed personnel tragic casualties while deployed as coalition forces in Pakistan with no apology from aggressors until today is a major setback for military, intelligence and political establishment.

As for Baluchistan secessionism, the evidence with Israel’s Mossad trained agents infiltration in disguise proficient in local language apparently not detected by Pakistan’s intelligence and military in predisposition towards India.

Pakistan internal circles on Saudi Arabia funding and United States military aid remain existential threat to nation and the region.

The debate on Kashmir for Pakistan and external sources instigating hostility using the subject as pretext evade responsibility on involvements in aiding and abetting terror at home and foreign land.

Kashmir separatists as proxies to members with vested interests at Kashmiris expense contributing to endless plight in subversion embarked as liberation crusade.

Kashmir is relevant to citizens in the valley more than anyone anywhere in the world.  The proselytized state comprises people of origin not necessarily subscribing to politically motivated foreign agenda. Accordingly, Kashmir merits comprehensive review and resolution to follow in due course.

Those nations prompting behind Kashmir topic need to introspect on prevalent situations against religious denominations of Islam viz. Bahai in Iran, incessant violence against Shia in Pakistan, the war in Yemen targeting Shias representing Houthi movement, the persecution of Kurds in Turkey, sectarianism in Iraq facilitating western and Middle East allies recruited terror and last but not the least the contentious Palestinian dispute.

Muslim nations worldwide are confronted with interior turmoil and fragility emanating from western influenced policy to deny political freedom in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, UAE, Iraq as well as Iran to name a few in volatile Middle East.

Similarly, Islamic nations in South, South East and Central Asia besides Africa susceptible to political instability and unrest largely from incoherence and western dominance through military bases and occupation under the guise of security.

Pakistan’s democracy suppressed with military and intelligence agency intrusion in governance.  Since British partition of India in 1947, Pakistan struggles to retain democratic system with lingering opposition to civilian rule.

Then there are schisms proliferating turbulence with underworld crime syndicate and nefarious elements provided refuge with immunity from investigation and extradition.

The existing conditions in Pakistan is impetus on national priority to engage in constructive and meaningful interaction with India and surrounding neighbors in containing terror and insurgency claiming innocent lives all around.

Setting political differences and opinions aside, Pakistan and India resumption of talks at political, military and Border Security Forces levels pertinent to alleviate civilian suffering on either side.

The national pledge to safeguard citizens’ safety and territorial integrity is possible upon renouncing ties with those causing mayhem.

In the absence of delineation from terror manufacturers, the posturing on fighting terror is disingenuous and already consuming the premise fostering enmity.

Pakistan and India dealing with positive intentions to protect lives and eliminate skirmishes would guarantee sustainable peace.

The desirable economic growth and progress is attainable in peaceful and stable environment.  The governments dedication to diplomacy in reaching mutual consensus would determine the strength of democracy and independent status of a nation.

Pakistan and India are urged to move forward in forging better relations based on respect for life and trust in delivering secure future to the current and next generations.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

India – Independence Day Commemoration 2015

August 15, 2015

By Padmini Arhant

India commemorates Independence Day 68th anniversary on August 15.

Subsequent to overt British Raj, India adapting Parliamentary system recognized as world’s largest democracy premised on secularism and diversity with caste hierarchy and communalism remaining predominant feature in social structure.

Political speech to transcend caste and communal practice and in the same address using caste references makes overture disingenuous for actions verify intention.

The evolution across the spectrum varies with contrasting characteristics in inheritance of British Raj legacy in politics and sharp deviation from Indian culture in general.

Social behavior in appearance and attitude claimed modern has created identity syndrome. The external influence reflected in internal conversion and erosion of Indian heritage. The trend is in semblance with European invasion of China enabled by British Raj opium introduction in the early twentieth century for market access.

Indian politics representing the rich, famous, self-proclaimed royals and dynasty continue to defend indefensible activities alternating terms in office to protect ethos favoring corruption, criminality, treason and abuse of power.

India’s ruling class predominantly comprising bourgeois reminiscent of British Raj impedes comprehensive development.

Nonetheless, the mainstream contribution led India towards significant achievements in the economic sector qualifying the nation as emerging economy.

Indian workforce and entrepreneurial innovation facilitated economic growth amid challenges in global economy.

Indian diaspora excellence in overseas domains combined with expatriates’ payments to family back home boost foreign currency reserves and economic opportunity.

India’s domestic production could exceed expectations in the absence of persisting conflict of interest for personal gains involving political figures depriving nation of due revenue.

The taxation laws exempting wealthy and entities with extraordinary income is shelter for tax evasion and offshore holdings draining national treasury.

Indian central and state governments reluctance to legislate effective anti-corruption measures defy transparency and accountability maintaining status quo in avoiding self-implications.

India subscribing to neo-liberalization economic policy – euphemism for contentious Free Trade Agreement launched as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) for multinational corporations venture is a litmus test considering experience elsewhere mostly resulting in unilateral profitability.

Foreign investments with mutual trade benefits preventing displacement of local businesses and retail industry, labor exploitation in addition to strict environment and safety regulations are critical in the backdrop of Union Carbide industrial disaster and mining incidents leaving victims in permanent ordeal.

Contemporary politics feign democracy with the electoral process having become the means to legitimize illegitimate rule.

The violations such as open bribery of voters, fraud and threats not barring killing of independent candidates are rampant in the quest for power.

Candidates with criminal records and individuals under investigations for unnatural deaths and corruption scandals not only allowed to participate but also funded to ensure victory in election.

The political members allegiance to corporate and foreign donors promoting candidacy during election alienate electorate and their problems using taxpayers funded police force to quell dissent and peaceful assembly.

The five methods deployed to suppress voice on issues concerning people and political cadre is law enforcement agency, income tax charges, intelligence bureau probe, media propaganda and character defamation.

India’s ordinary citizens plight beginning with;

The rise in farmers suicides with the onset of controversial land bill,

Urban and rural youth unemployment,

Marginalization of demography denying basic living conditions like electricity, water, sanitation, housing, road and transportation facilities,

Workers and management disputes in private and public sector unresolved hurting business and state economy.

The default on army veterans’ request for one rank one pension OROP clarifies misplaced priority.

Northeastern states unrest prolonged with Armed Forces Special Power Act (AFSPA) upholding British Raj enactment. Similar scenario is applicable in Kashmir valley.

On citizen security – Female gender regardless of age targeted with rape and sexual harassment. The crime escalation making women to fend themselves proves apathy to citizens’ trouble.

Notwithstanding neglecting women safety impacting national image and tourism.

Terrorism hits Indian soil in Gurdaspur, Punjab while political agitation intensified outside Parliament.

The recent standoff leading to Parliament session adjournment throughout monsoon season confirms complicity among ruling coalition and opposition parties in evading legislative responsibility. The tradition declining to bring high profile accused to justice continued safeguarding self-exposure.

Political opportunism peaks on any matter having slighted the same in the two-term period with preoccupation then stifling corruption involvement.

Central authority confrontation with democratically elected state government in New Delhi seek to settle political scores in the aftermath of electoral defeat with little or no respect for electorate requirements isolating them from the rest of the country.

New Delhi statehood is complete in full-fledged autonomy with police, anti-corruption bureau (ACB) and public utilities under Delhi state administration rather than federal jurisdiction.

Delhi government deserves equal treatment from the Central government setting aside political differences and partisanship, as citizens in Delhi are part of national configuration and accordingly entitled to federal assistance and cooperation.

The implementation of mandatory voting in Gujarat accompanied by penalty for non-compliance reject democratic value with imposition substituting option.

In the southern state of Tamil Nadu, liquor sale and distribution not even sparing four year old child is testament to political leadership dereliction of duty towards citizens’ welfare.

The state authorization of brute force against non-violent protesters and judicial maneuver delaying approval for anti-liquor silent demonstration is departure from democracy.

Last but not the least, New Delhi incumbent decision to transfer power from Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to Prime Minister and finance ministry appointed five members committee beckons attention.

In the panel, three members representing executive branch and two from RBI allowing majority vote on key functions viz. monetary policy, inflation and interest rate determination is a paradigm shift from convention granting veto power to Reserve Bank governor.

The rapid rollback in fiscal management needs Parliamentary discussion and people consent to avert misuse of financial control with no desire to change corruption climate in the country.

India’s progress could exponentially surge in eliminating corruption and black money hoardings with recovery of wealth held in Swiss Bank, global tax havens and fictitious enterprise within country.

The political establishment’s will is strong in resistance to public scrutiny of private assets exemplified in anti corruption bureau (ACB) removal from appropriate ambit in the prevalent discord with Delhi State Assembly.

India’s freedom struggle would end upon republic empowerment constituting glowing tribute to patriots and honorable leaders for their sacrifice in the independence movement.

Finally, Indian youth and citizens nationwide adopting environment friendly habits would enhance India’s commitment towards Prakarti. (Nature).

I convey my Greetings and felicitations to people in India on the occasion of India’s independence yet to be accomplished in entirety.

Best wishes to citizens in India for liberty, unity, peace and prosperity.

Jai Bharat! Vande Mataram!

Peace to all

Thank you.

Pakistan – Independence Day Celebration 2015

August 13, 2015

By Padmini Arhant

As much as I would like to wish citizens in Pakistan – Azadi Mubarak with August 14 observed as Independence Day, the situation reflect otherwise.

Pakistan may have sought independent status following British Raj partition of India in 1947.

However, Pakistan is yet to experience real freedom with fledgling democracy and foreign controlled intelligence and military restraining democratic evolution.

Pakistan is also under siege with terrorism within and across the borders in every frontier.

Saudi Arabia funding and influence in Pakistan is one of the reasons for terror manifestation considering Saudi kingdom involvement in terrorism since 9/11 in 2001 up until now in the Middle East, North Africa, Pakistan and Central Asia.

Saudi Arabia has also been heavily engaged in running madrassas – the religious schools in Pakistan and Central Asia inculcating extremism despite contradiction with religion of Islam.

Saudi Arabia and Israel policy in the Middle East fostering terror against Iraq, Syria and Lebanon also directed in Pakistan.

The external forces designed U.S. foreign policy is aimed at maintaining Pakistan and Afghanistan as failed states to justify arms sales to the former while prolonging U.S. and NATO presence in Afghanistan.

There is also vested interest in fomenting border tensions between Pakistan and neighbors India and Afghanistan with weapons delivery to various sides in addition to necessitating increase in national defense budget.

Pakistan’s major problem is terrorism wreaking havoc inside the country and across the boundaries and those behind incessant violence are operatives within Pakistan representing sources that are behind secessionism in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya and Yemen.

The internal radicalism exploiting economically deprived youth recruited by terror factions viz. Lakshar è Taiba (LeT) and Jaish è Mohammad (JeM) besides other factions receiving support from Pakistan’s Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) remain existential threat to all – Pakistan, India and Afghanistan.

Pakistan border skirmishes with Iran pose security issue as well.

Amid terror and relentless violence, Pakistan is affected by natural disasters like severe floods leaving significant majority in adverse conditions with obstacles for humanitarian relief.

Pakistan is also targeted for provincial separatism in Sindh and Baluchistan.

Kashmir is a distraction restricting Pakistan from forging normal ties with India and avail opportunity in economic, cultural and infrastructure development.

Pakistan’s political system reliance on Saudi Arabia that is strongly opposed to democracy due to insecurity emanating from inevitable ending of dynasty rule should be a cause for concern and accordingly transform relations to economic trade excluding direct intervention in governance and society.

Saudi Arabia connection to sectarian killings of Shia Muslims in Pakistan in semblance with Iraq exacerbates Pakistan’s political and economic growth.

The absence of peaceful environment with terrorism and continuous bloodshed is a major hindrance for Pakistan in attracting foreign investment.

In conjunction to these constraints, Pakistan like most nations worldwide has to contend with corruption and black money in Swiss banks and offshore accounts again denying mainstream population basic means for survival.

The positive sign could perhaps be enabling democratic process to function with departure from military and intelligence agency backed coup disrupting political and economic progress.

Combatting terror is a collective responsibility and critical apparatus such as intelligence and military along with local law enforcement agency cooperation with people representatives in government rather than terror groups could lead to national freedom.

Pakistan’s focus and sincere commitment in this regard would guarantee better relations with neighbors and economic prospects in the competitive global economy.

Best Wishes to citizens in Pakistan on Independence Day celebration for a new chapter with peace and harmony.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

India – Celebrity Worship And Political Circus

July 9, 2015

By Padmini Arhant

The celebrity worship in India is unprecedented and to a large extent foments megalomania.

Politics and controlled communication media share a deep bond with entertainment sector in the country.

The political parties are constantly vying with each other in bringing people from film and sports industry (cricket in particular) to represent them.

The commonality is the hunger for power, fame and fortune forming the basis for mutual attraction.

Celebrities are held above law in any issue extending into embezzlements from kickbacks and backdoor deals in government venture.

Those involved in accidents resulting in loss of ordinary citizens life from drunken driving and in other scenario contributing to excess speed limit on the less developed highway are protected from appropriate action.

The two incidents – directly related to Bollywood actors had victims and their families blamed for the untimely deaths and deprived of prompt medical assistance.

In this regard politics turning a blind eye to celebrities faith whether from natural birth or apostasy that is otherwise contentious in all affairs proves the political priority to stardom transcending religion, ethnicity and other background.

The latest one with the incumbent party BJP MP (the member of Parliament) supposedly representing the poor constituency of the economically disadvantaged Uttar Pradesh state riding in Mercedes as the official vehicle for personal trip crashed into oncoming automobile causing the death of a four year old child and leaving other passengers seriously injured in the car.

Besides the factors behind the accident, the preferential treatment provided to the celebrity turned political party representative deserves mentioning in humanitarian context.

The passerby, a doctor had taken the celebrity with minor wound in his car ignoring the remaining victims and the Hippocratic oath to rescue anyone especially the most vulnerable of all in need of emergency care.  

The doctor going to film star’s aid  leaving others behind – the four year old girl and five year old boy suffering massive injury is a failure in professional judgment. 

Accordingly the celebrity received top-notch attention in the best medical facility.

Meanwhile the critically injured passengers i.e. non-celebrities in the other car were abandoned to their fate for half hour in the accident scene.

According to the victims personal and eyewitness accounts they had to ride in an auto rickshaw (the three wheeler scooter) to reach the nearby government hospital. The four year old girl (Sonam) succumbed to her wounds on her mother’s lap on the way to the medical center.

The celebrity was fussed over with comprehensive procedures and the family with life threatening injuries became relevant only after the glaring gross negligence brought to public focus by the grieving father.

The mournful family also expressed their disappointment with the Bollywood actor turned MP not reaching out to them despite the fateful experience with the loss of their child.

To make matter worse, the celebrity accused the father for not having followed the traffic rules holding him responsible for the tragedy.

In this instance, the celebrity as the serving political representative could care less about the civil duty to inquire after the family and other members affected in the traumatic event clarifying human life matters only when the entity is a celebrity.

The apathy to mainstream problems is the underlying feature in the deteriorating human character.

I hope for the speedy recovery of the family hurt in the unfortunate collision with strength to bear the painful moment in life.

On the contrary, the ongoing political storm in New Delhi attributed to the present foreign minister intervention to assist the controversial IPL (Indian Premier League – Cricket Sport) founder dubbed the fugitive to travel within Europe for medical purpose concerning the family is asserted as the humanitarian call and lauded amongst the political class.

The IPL chief confronted with allegations and charges refuting through twitter social media dragging the polity into spotlight.

These developments confirm the so-called world’s largest democracy also renowned for the biggest political circus on earth.

Indian political establishment is the epicenter of corruption and criminality notwithstanding treason evident in explosive scandals across political parties alternating term in office.

The political class and bourgeois subservience to appease the unscrupulous external forces is second to none.

The election is a fraud with extensive bribery of electorate using counterfeit notes and black money from various channels near and far including the underworld and nefarious elements subscription to candidacies for vested interests.

Even the pretentious common man party (AAP) staged as anti-corruption faction encouraged Delhi voters to accept money from the other political parties – BJP, NDA and Congress and cast the vote for AAP. 

Cash for votes is not limited to campaign trail and the tradition carried over in Parliament and state assembly to sway opinion on legislation usually favoring domestic and foreign oligarchy and stifle anti-graft law.

Politics using religion is the trend sowing the seeds of discord – the trait inherited from imperial divide and conquer strategy. The irony is the political members lineage to Islam with ancestry not recollected in selective memory.  

The former Prime Minister of India, Indira Gandhi was married to a muslim Feroz (Gandhi) making the descendents part Muslims in origin. 

The political members i.e. the Prime Minister Narinder Modi and the Patriarch of the ruling party L.K.Advani as well as the former chief minister of the state as chief trustees of temples viz. Somnath (God Shiva) temple in Gujarat recently barred entry to non-Hindus viz. Muslims and Christians citing the entrants to seek permission from the temple administration prior to visit.

The reason for the ordinance is apparently in response to Islam mosques and Christian chapels not allowing visitors from different sect.

Such conduct is reflective of using God as political pawn to impose fundamentalism in society.

Any religion restricting access to people of any other faith or non-believers to the place of worship cannot be true followers of the religion and ownership on God as the sole entity of a specific domain is ignorance prohibiting acceptance.

The prevalent religious dogma is contradictory to major religions claim as monotheist i.e. One God as the universal power.

Monotheism would encompass secularism without reservations upon the religion being established with blessings from God – the Supreme divine power behind creations for constructive evolution.

The isolation of religion premised on orthodox belief and largely political gains highlight indoctrination substituting spirituality.

Condescendence and discrimination widely practiced conforming to foreign authorities influence over politics and other sections in society.

Nature is bestowed with facts and knowledge since the dawn of life on earth leading to the existing information age in digital format.

Regardless the aptitude exemplified in positive attitude accompanied with gratitude delineate the genuinely knowledgeable, the authentic from platitude due to magnitude, fortitude and plenitude defying servitude to uplift the spirit of the multitude at any altitude.

Peace to all!

Thank you.

இந்தியா – தமிழ் நாடு அரசியல்

May 25, 2015

எழுத்தாளர் – பத்மினி அஹந்த்

தமிழ் நாட்டின் அரசியலை திரை படமாகக் கருதி குடி மக்களை ஏமாற்றுவது கடுமையான தண்டனைக்கு ஆளாகிறது. அரசியலை ஒரு நாடகம் போல் நடத்தி திரை பட நடிகையை நடிக்க வைப்பது பெருமையான காரியம் அல்ல.

இந்த தெருக் கூத்து ஜன நாயக ஸ்தானத்தை அழிப்பதுமில்லாமல் மக்களின் அறிவை ஏளனம் செய்வதாகும்.

ஊழல் மற்றும் கொலை, கொள்ளை, கள்ள நோட்டு பதித்து கள்ள வோட்டு மூலம் பதவிக்கு வந்து அதிகாரத்தை தவறாக பயன் படுத்தி மாநிலத்தை சுய ராஜியமாக்கி தன்னுடைய அஹங்காரத்தை தெரிய படுத்தும் குற்றவாளிகளை முதல் அமைச்சராக அமர்த்துவது சீரழிவாகும்.

தமிழ் நாடு முன்னேற்றமாவதற்கு வழி – பல ஆண்டு காலம் மற்றும் தற்சமயம் ஆட்சி புரிந்து வரும் அரசியல் கட்சிகள், கட்சியின் அதிபதி, சகல உருபினருடன் நிராகரித்து, அதற்கு பதில் மக்கள் அவரவர் தொகுதியில் நேர்மை, நீதி, ஒழுக்கம், அறிவு, திறமை, அனுபவம் மற்றும் கண்ணியமான நபர்களை தேர்ந்தெடுப்பது அவசியமாகும்.  பிறகு மக்கள் குறிப்பிட்டவர்கள் ஒன்று சேர்ந்து கட்சியை உருவாக்கி தேர்தல் சீர்திருத்தம் நிறை வேற்ற வேண்டும்.

இந்த விஷயத்தில் மக்கள் கவனம் தேவை. தமிழ் நாடு மற்றும் பாரதம் முழுதும் அரசியல் கட்சிகள் அந்நியர்களின் பிரதிநிதி. இவர்கள் மாநிலத்திற்கும் தேசத்திற்கும் துரோகம் செய்வதில் சிறிதும் தயங்குவதில்லை.  இப்படி இருக்கையில், மக்கள் நலனிற்காக இங்கு வழங்கப்படும் எந்த யோசனையையும் தன் சுயநலத்திற்காக உபயோகிக்க பல பேர் வருவதில் சந்தேகமில்லை. அதனால் மக்களின் பகுத்தறிதல் மிகவும் வேண்டியது.

அரசியல் வாதிகளுக்கு தேர்தல் ஒரு நுழைவு தன்னுடைய சர்வாதிகாரத்தை மக்கள் மீது சுமத்துவதும், பதவியில் இருக்கும் பொழுது மாநிலத்தின் வருமானத்தையும், மக்களின் வரிகளையும் சூறையாடும் சந்தர்ப்பத்தை இவர்கள் வீண் போக விடுவதில்லை.

மற்றபடி நீதி வழக்கையும் கூட மிரட்டல், லஞ்சம் மூலம் தனக்கு சாதகமாக திருப்பி மீண்டும் பதவிக்கு வருவது வழக்கம் ஆயினும், இப்படிப்பட்ட அரசாங்கம் பதவி, புகழ், பொருள் பேராசையின் அடிமையாக இருக்கையில், எந்த நடவடிக்கையும் தனக்கு சாதகமாக இருப்பதை தான் கடை பிடிக்கிறார்கள். இவர்களின் ஒவ்வொரு செயலிலும் தன்னுடைய ஆட்சியை நீடிக்கும் ஆர்வத்தைக் காணலாம்.

தானம், தருமம் நடப்பது மக்களின் சொத்தை உபயோகித்து அதையும் வோட்டாக மாற்றி அரசாளும் வெறியை பார்க்க முடிகிறது.

உண்மையாக தேசம் அல்லது மாநிலம் மேல் பற்று உள்ளவர்கள் முதலாவது – ஊழல், சட்டத்தை பேரம் பேசி வாங்குவது, தன்னை உத்தமியாக வேடம் போட்டு மக்களுக்கு நம்பிக்கை துரோகம் செய்ய மாட்டார்கள். இரண்டாவது – தான் அரசியலில் சேர்ந்த நாள் முதல் இந்நாள் வரை கொள்ளையடித்த மக்களின் பணத்தை திரும்ப மக்களிடம் ஒப்படைத்து, பதவி மோகத்தை துறந்து தன்னுடைய சொந்த செல்வத்தை மாநிலத்தின் வளர்ச்சிக்கும், மக்களின் முன்னேற்றத்திற்க்காகக் கொடுப்பார்கள். மூன்றாவது தெய்வங்களையும் உபயோகிக்க இவர்கள் சலைப்பதில்லை.

இந்த தரம் கெட்டவர்கள் மத்திய கிழக்கு அதாவது மிடில் ஈஸ்ட் நாடுகளில் உள்ள கொடூர ஆட்சியின் பண்பாட்டை தமிழ் நாட்டில் அமலாக்குகிறார்கள். மக்களை அடக்கி ஒடுக்கி போலீஸ் என்கௌன்ட்டர் இல்லாவிட்டால் பெண்களையும் குடும்பத்தையும் துன்புறுத்தும் முறைகளை பின்பற்றுகிறார்கள்.

பிரஸ், பத்திரிக்கை பற்றா குறைக்கு தனது டெலிவிஷன் செந்நெல் வழியாக வதந்தியும், தன்னை புகழ்ந்து பொய்யான நிகழ்ச்சிகளை காண்பித்து மக்கள் சிந்திக்க முடியாதபடி மூலையையும் தாக்குகிறார்கள்.

இதன் காரணம் சினிமா நட்சத்திரங்கள், விளையாட்டு நபர்கள், தொழில் அதிபர்கள், மற்றும் அரசியல்வாதிகளை மக்கள் அளவிற்கு மீறி மரியாதையும் சேவையும் செய்து அவர்களை மனிதர்கள் இன்றி தெய்வாமாக்கி இறைவனை அவமதிப்பதால் இந்த நிலமை உருவாகியுள்ளது.

அவர்கள் தன்னையே பூமியின் கடவுளாக நினைப்பது மக்கள் கொடுத்த சலுகையும் அனாவசிய ஆதரவின் விளைவாகும்.  இதோடு அரசியலில் கட்சியின் தலைவர், தலைவிக்கு குடை பிடிக்கவும், செருப்பு துடைப்பவறும்தான் கட்சியில் சேர்க்க படுவதினால், கட்சிக்காரர்கள் கட்சியின் தலைமை புரிபவர்களுக்கு ஏகப்பட்ட பட்டங்கலும், விருதுகலும் கொடுத்து தரை மட்டத்தில் இருப்பவர்களை வானத்தில் வைக்கிறார்கள்.

இந்த பிரச்சனைகளுக்கு பரிகாரம் – மேல் பகுதியில் அறிவித்தப்படி எல்லா கட்சிகளையும் விலக்கி, தன் சுக போகங்களை கருதாமல் மக்களுக்கு பனிவிடை செய்வதே லட்சியமாக உள்ளவர்களையும், நல்ல நோக்கம், நாணயம் அதோடு தூரத்து கருத்து அறிந்தவர்களை கொண்டு வருவது நன்மையாகும். முக்கியமாக உள் நாடில்லும் சரி அந்நியர்களுடன் கூட்டு சேர்ந்து சதி செய்யும் நரிகளை தள்ளி வைப்பது எல்லா வகையில் மேலாகும்.

அரசியலின் மூன்று கிளை அலுவலகம் பதவிகள் நிரந்தரமாக நீடிக்காமல், கால எல்லை ( டெர்ம் லிமிட்) அறிமுகப்படுத்துவது முன்னுரிமை. இல்லையென்றால் தன் இஷ்டப்படி நான்காவது, ஐந்தாவது தடவை முதல் அமைச்சராக அமர்ந்து கொண்டு என்றைக்கும் தீராத பதவி பித்து பிடித்தவர்கள் மக்களின் ஏழ்மை, துயரம் மற்றும் கல்வியறிவின்மையை தேர்தலில் வெற்றிக்காக மறுபடியும் உபயோகிப்பது ஐதிகமாகி விட்டது.

தேர்தல் திருப்பம் ஆகும் வரையில், தேர்தலில் பங்கு கொள்ளாமல் இருக்கிற எல்லா கட்சிகளையும் அடியோடு புறக்கணிப்பது மக்களின் அருமையையும் சக்தியையும் தெளிவு படுத்தும்.

பதவிக்காக மோசடி செய்வது அரசியலின் தனிச்சுதந்திரமாகி, அநியாயம் அட்டகாசம் பெருகிக்கொண்டே இருக்கிறது. சட்டம் என்பது பொது மக்களுக்கு மற்றும் நியமிக்கப்பட்டதால் குற்றம் செய்பவர்கள் அரசியல் மற்றபடி பெயர் வாய்ந்தவர்கள் கூட்டணியை பாதிப்பதில்லை. இதற்காகவே ஊழல் தடுப்பு பிரச்சாரம் இவர்களுக்கு சம்மதமில்லை.

எல்லா விதத்தில்லும் இப்பொழுது நடக்கிற சம்பவங்கள் குடி அரசின் பெயரில் மக்களின் குடியை கெடுக்கும் ஆட்சிகள் துணிச்சல் பெறுவது புது தில்லி அரசியல் மற்றும் அந்நியர்கள் சாம்ராஜ்யம் தூண்டிய கை வரிசையாகும்.

இதற்க்கு முற்றுபுள்ளி வைப்பதில் தான் மக்கள், நாடு தேற முடியும். இல்லாவகையில் ஆணவம், அகம்பாவத்தோடு ஊழல் அஸ்திவாரமாக கொண்ட அரசாங்கம் நீடிப்பது மக்கள் வேதனையும், நாட்டிற்கு சேதமும் தான் அதிகரிக்கும்.

பிறருக்கு அக்கறை இல்லாவிட்டாலும், இதனால் பாதிக்கப்பட்டவர்கள் ஒத்துழைப்பில் அந்தந்த ஜில்லா, மாவட்டம் பொது சந்திப்பு ஏற்பாடு செய்து மக்கள் சேவைக்காக நீதி, நேர்மை, பண்பு, அறிவாற்றல், அகிம்சை, அமைதி, சமாதானம், விவகாரங்களை தீர்மானம் செய்ய வேண்டிய சாமர்த்தியம் மற்றும் துணிவு பெற்றவர்களை வேட்பாளராக தேர்ந்தெடுத்து அரசாங்கம் அமைக்கலாம்.

இப்பொழுது இருக்கும் கட்சிகள் அனைவரும் இதன் படி ஏற்கனவே இருப்பதாக அபிப்ராயத்துடன் மக்களை திரும்பவும் கண் கட்டி வித்தை காட்ட முன்னணிக்கு வருவார்கள்.  மக்கள் இவர்கள் வலையில் அகப்படாமல், புதிதாக கட்சி ஆரம்பம் செய்வதில் புத்திசாலித்தனமாகும்.  புது தில்லி பாராளுமன்றம் அந்நியர்களுடன் உடந்தையாகி பொது மக்கள் கட்சி – உதாரணம் ஆப் (AAP) போன்ற கட்சியை தமிழ் நாட்டில் அறிமுகம் படுத்தினால் – மக்கள் அதை ஏற்றுக்கொள்வது அறியாமையாகும்.

எப்படி பழையதை அகற்றி விட்டு புதிதாக எதையும் கொண்டு வருவதற்கு முயற்சி தேவையோ, அதே போல் தமிழ் நாட்டில் இந்நாள் வரை ஆட்டம் போட்டுக்கொண்டிருக்கும் கட்சிகளை வேரோடு நீக்குவது மக்களக்கு சுதந்திரமாகும்.

ஆண்டவன் படைத்த உலகத்தில் எல்லா பிராணிகள், பொருட்களுக்கும் சேர்த்து முடிவு இருக்கின்றன.  அதே மாதிரி அரசியல் கட்சிகளுக்கும், ஆட்சியில் உள்ளவருக்கும் முடிவு காலம் இருப்பதை இவர்கள் மறுத்தாலும் அது நிச்சயம் நடந்துதான் தீரும்.  இவர்கள் முடிவை தாமதிக்கலாம் ஆனால் தடுக்க இயலாது.

தமிழ் நாட்டின் சரித்திரம் மாற வேண்டிய சமயம் வந்து விட்டதால், இதில் எந்த தடையும் போலி வேடத்தில் அதை தவறினால் சினிமா நடிகை நடிப்பில் வெற்றி காண முடியாது.

ஆண்டவன் விதித்த கட்டளையை மீறி எந்த நிமிடமும் மறைந்து போகும் மனித இனம் குறுக்கிட்டாள் அதன் வினையை அனுபவிக்க வேண்டி வரும்.

பூமி ஒன்று, மனித குலம் ஒன்றை எத்தனையோ பிரிவினை செய்கிற சமுதாயம் அரசியல் என்ற கூண்டில் சிக்கிக்கொண்டு தவிப்பது – அவர்கள் ஏற்றுக்கொண்ட தண்டனையாகும்.  ஏனனில் இதை கொடுப்பவர்கள் கோழைகள்.  அவர்களுக்கு மக்களிடம் பயம்.

தேர்தலில் அபகரித்த அதிகாரத்தை மக்கள் வருமான வரியில் நடத்துகிற போலீஸ் படை, நீதி மன்றம், மற்றும் பல வித நிறுவனத்தின் பின்னால் ஒழிந்து தன்னுடைய பாதுகாப்புக்காக மிரட்டுவது அவர்களின் பலவீனம்.  அதை மூடி மறைத்து மக்கள் அவர்களின் இரக்கத்திற்கு பயந்து வாழ வேண்டுமென்ற சூழ்நிலையை தந்திரமாக ஏற்படுத்தியுள்ளார்கள்.

நயவஞ்சகம், கள்ளம், கபடம் ஆகியவை மனிதர்களின் இருளாகும். இந்த இருட்டில் அச்சம் அதிகமாகி சிந்திக்கும் தன்மையை இழப்பதால் தீய செயலில் ஈடுபட்டு தன் பாவத்தை சேகரித்துக் கொள்கிறார்கள்.

இந்த பாதையில் செல்பவர்கள் மறப்பது – கர்ம வினைகள் யாரையும் விட்டு வைப்பதில்லை. அவரவர்கள் செய்யும் குற்றத்திற்கு அதன் பலனை தவிர்க்க சாத்தியம் இல்லை. இது சத்தியம்.

தமிழ் நாடு அரசியல் – சகல கட்சிகளின் அத்தியாயம் இறுதியான முடிவு தமிழகத்திற்கு புதிய பிறவியை உண்டாக்கும்.

அனைவருக்கும் அமைதி உருவாக!

நன்றி
