General Election 2024

Padmini Arhant

When democracy is shackled with ban, state authorized arrests of party workers, peace activists including women denied bail in direct violation of Pakistan’s explicit constitutional right granted to women held on any charges, journalists, prohibition of candidates to contest election in a free and fair manner as elections are meant to be in a real functional democracy,

These developments blatantly subvert democracy.

Simultaneously, the political party PTI with popular support and great anticipation is denied equal opportunity with the founder and party leader, the former Prime Minister Imran Khan imprisoned with seemingly politically motivated assortments of disproportionate charges.

The culmination of state crackdown on PTI and nationwide ban on the party in contesting the national and provincial election in 2024 has led to the electorate verdict that appears in favor of the political party PTI of Pakistan.

The latest poll results according to Pakistan and international news reports show the former Prime Minister Imran Khan’s PTI represented by the independent candidates in the lead with 99 seats right now leaving other two major contenders – PML- N and PPP fairly behind by a margin of 30 and 46 seats respectively thus far.

The PTI representation through independent candidates is a situation arising from undemocratic unconstitutional elimination of a largest national party such as PTI from the polls including removal of PTI party symbol, the cricket bat from the ballot paper blocking viable choices to the vast electorate considering Pakistan’s significant rural voters and urban disadvantaged lacking in higher literacy exercise their voting right by recognizing and associating the party symbol with the candidate.

The PTI is relevantly represented by the majority electorate in the current polls 2024 and as a result, the political leader Imran Khan return to power honoring electoral mandate would be the legitimate process to restore democracy in Pakistan.

More on this subject and other issues related to Pakistan mentioned earlier in the previous topic will be presented in due course.

Western Foreign Policy

February 8, 2024

Western Foreign Policy

Padmini Arhant

The Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and government’s radical obstinacy funded and militarized by United States politics viz. the Democrat administration and bi-partisan Congress to proceed with globally condemned genocide of Palestinians in Gaza and the rest of Palestine clarify United States position.

The United States administrations trajectory whether democrat or republican, the Democrat in particular considering the bipolarity on foreign policy to convince Democrat base to win election and remain in power directly conflict with previous and present Democrat administrations although it is the extension of terms since 2009 – 2024 actions are self-explanatory in the first quarter of the twenty first century under the guise of hope and change.

The Democrat administration legacy from Arab Spring in 2011 onwards to violent insurrection in Ukraine in 2014 and Democrat White House intervention in 2022 in Pakistan…all of them related to toppling governments, displacement of democracy and causing upheavals thus far leave their track record unparalleled to Republican predecessors’ indulgence in illegal foreign invasion, decimation and carnage.

The Democrat administration sponsoring cannibals and various terror outfits in 2011 and thereafter to fight their proxy wars against foreign governments in an effort to install terror groups as their puppet government in Syria, Iraq, Libya, Lebanon among others having successfully appointed Nazi government in Kiev, Ukraine in 2014 are testament to their violent anti-democratic anti-republic, anti-humanity and anti-environment in the relentless bombing and shelling continued till date in Gaza war and financing as well as weaponizing military intervention between Ukraine and Russia.

Regardless, the western foreign policy from the United States, Britain, EU prominent members and other western and non-western allies having green signaled the Gaza war on October 7, 2023 under the proprietary right to self-defense that are flagrantly denied to the Palestinian victims of over 75 years of Israeli oppression, brutality and apartheid share responsibility with main perpetrator Israel in the ongoing genocide and unspeakable war crimes committed with political impunity.

Democrat administration belligerence and violence prolonging two frontal wars in Ukraine and Gaza while engaged in criminalization with numerous politically motivated impeachment proceedings, taxpayer funds squandered Robert Mueller Committee besides endless litigations against political opponent in the United States and simultaneously in Pakistan not barring imprisonment of the formidable political contender, the former Prime Minister Imran Khan are contemporary desperate politics futile operations to exert indefinite criminal authority.

When United States foreign policy effortlessly remove democratically elected governments however and wherever possible around the globe, the signature trait of the incognito and public representatives throughout twentieth and twenty first century,

What is holding the policy makers together with overt and covert operatives’ of western foreign policy including the media cartel to rein in on Israeli leadership and government’s ruthless merciless onslaught in Gaza and the rest of Palestine?

As for Israeli leadership Netanyahu and Likud party radical members’ objective for victory in Gaza war into fifth month of consolidated western powers inflicted deaths and devastation targeting children and infants in the cowardly so-called self-defense brutality against innocent civilians in Gaza elaborate the situation in semblance with assuming a mirage an oasis in the Negev desert.

Israel having killed own 31 Israeli hostages, pronounced dead in the recent official confirmation by IDF and Israeli government since October 7, 2023 air strikes laden with white phosphorus, bombs and United States and western manufactured artillery against unarmed civilians in Gaza Strip is the sequel to the event preceding October 7, 2023.

The prior Israeli casualties resulted from Israeli government authorized ultra-right wing elements indiscriminate violence in Israeli Kibbutz as accounted by Israeli victims and survivors during Hamas infiltration in October 2023.

The death toll provided by Israel and western partners in Hamas attack also involve Israel’s IDF and government recruited proxy faction killing of Israeli citizens in that event.

Accordingly, the Israeli PM Netanyahu typically following United States and other western allies stance including EU 321 votes on Gaza war seeking unconditional surrender of Hamas, release of all Israeli hostages again subject to their survival in entirety amid continuation of Gazan genocide, forceful evacuation viz. Nakba under heavy shelling of deadly weapons are unrealistic premises wasting precious time and lives on all sides in the disproportionate western military, financing and decision-making process.

The carte blanche authority prove nothing ever change in western foreign policy blindsided by egregious decisions and utter disregard for human lives invariably treated as “collateral damages” applicable to even own citizens and defense personnel as well throughout western warfare ideology.

The Hamas resistance force and combined Al-Quds, Al-Qassam brigades not excluding other players participation in defending Gazan territory and release of all Palestinian hostages in Israel controlled disclosed and undisclosed inhumane prisons not even sparing minors evident in the hostage exchange that transpired in the brief window of ceasefire in November 2023 lasting merely seven days merit unbiased consideration and fairness in mitigating humanitarian plight and gross injustice endured by Palestinians in Gaza, the remaining Palestinian Territories and refugee camps that have also been relentlessly targeted by Israeli exhaustive offensive inventory.

The presentation on Hamas TRUCE proposal, the position and policy maintained by Israel and United States together with other western collusion in Gaza war to follow in due course.

The topic will also touch base in detail on Pakistan’s political, economic, humanitarian and security crises endangering not only regional peace and security in the Indian sub-continent but also remain existential threat to global security in the open western discretion and influence upholding undemocratic domestic status quo in the South Asian predominantly Islamic Nuclear state Pakistan.

Politics – War Against Truth aka Holy War

January 31, 2024

Politics

–

War Against Truth aka

Holy War

Padmini Arhant

Update 01/31/2024:

Word of Caution: Do not plagiarize even color code from your arch nemesis for your misogynist attack. It only demonstrates utter stupidity and desperation.

Importantly, it is about time politics stop weaponizing taxpayer funded agencies like the Income Tax, State Franchise Tax Board (FTB) and alike to bully and flex fractured muscles of the corrupt politics only to be disappointed with failure in such harassment strategy.

Unlike the crooked wicked politics that evades due taxes and defraud the ones they prey on for their survival to success in their otherwise dismal political career, their shenanigans in this regard is self-defeating for the source and crony catalysts. Not to mention major embarrassment confirming goon gutter politics.

Relevantly, their scandalous corrupt shady dealings misusing $$$ billions of taxpayers funds to hamstring domestic and offshore corrupt wheeler dealers to advance personal and family fortune are the types bankrupting ordinary lives and depriving national treasury from legitimate revenue.

Politics need to realize they are hired by the people on public tax funded positions from top to bottom. The politics misusing power deploying scare tactics and aggressive ambush behind the scenes lead to own inevitable ejection and expedited exit from office.

Politics is also obligatory to respect other’s will upon latter rejecting indefinite abuse and exploitation in the increasingly oppressive fascist environment.

The life mantra now and forever – wisdom is the appropriate guide when choosing one’s enemy.

————————————————————————

What is contemporary politics paranoid of and vitriolic to in the Information Age?

Truth, factual presentation and incontrovertible data on politics’ flagrant violations, corruption, criminality and absolute abuse of power, treason…among other serious repulsive indulgence making a mockery of democracy, rejecting constitutional basic civil rights in curbing free speech, imposing gag order, arbitrary censorship and above all incessant targeting with personal identity theft and distortion not barring designating target to anonymity in nuanced attacks as political entitlement.

Those in control of politics – albeit the unelected oligarchy, special interests and variety of incognito influencers pumping money for destructive politics through diverse channels – none of the sources and means made public and carried out discreetly entirely for personal and vested interests as the norm.

Meanwhile, the innocent civilians and ordinary lives are subject to slaughter, economic bankruptcy, social subjugation, discrimination and dehumanization in politics’ secretive behind the scenes operatives driven blood and treasure squandering for ruinous catastrophic purpose.

Notwithstanding, those pledged to the  so-called “Holy War” innuendo against their one and only female target are the kind hell bent in protecting and prolonging the deep state status quo.

The philandering and criminal involvements with license to kill civilians and defense personnel at home and abroad are signature traits for the prominent ones in the egocentric undeserving glory hogging megalomaniacal persona.

The tradition includes politics defiantly committing crimes at every opportunity in colluding with enemies of humanity at large with their surrender in repugnant secret society meetings that prohibits public presence and knowledge on global affairs evidently harming human lives and existence.

The anti-humanity annual meeting in secret locations invariably plot, conspire and engage in devious activities proven malicious and life devouring whether unleashing deadly corona virus on human population or waging terrorism and relentless wars in the game plan on depopulation agenda.

Such politics upending democracy world over, installing propping rogue subservient regimes promoting corruption culture intensely via banking institutions in the Swiss Alps or exotic oceanic tax havens receiving unholy unscrupulous nefarious financial and economic transactions depleting ordinary lives’ hard earned lifelong savings and retirement benefits…are merely the tip of the iceberg.

All of it unequivocally held in political members’ personal wealth accumulation and additionally gambled away by politics in funding and fueling wars in the most oppressed and occupied territories offshore killing babies in incubators and entire unarmed innocent civilian population in the bloodthirsty carnage continued with no end in sight.

The politics notorious for secrecy, complicity and duplicity on all public and political matter that are supposed to be transparent with utmost accountability holding none above law barring selective incarceration and criminalization through interventions in foreign land witnessed and experienced until now are renowned for paradoxical paradigm.

The pathological impulsive politics unabashedly and shamelessly invade others’ life, home, space, privacy even claiming to peak under one’s sheets, rest room and shower etc., in sleazy intimidation harassment tactics declare themselves the ultimate perverts abusing taxpayer money against taxpayer that are continued with criminal pride and uber hubris.

Notwithstanding race, religion misappropriation along with obsessive narcissistic nastiness against female in the constant she-bashing having benefited and continue to harvest from the target’s free unpaid productive service in achieving unthinkable power, fame and fortune are gross political and otherwise parasitic trend.

The prevalent misogyny is further exemplified in intelligence and propriety attributed to male orientation casting the female as robotic artificial intelligence genre in the prejudiced gender profiling that are exclusive in crass chauvinistic politics.

If at all anyone has to apologize, compensate to the abused and renounce once and for all, all of the above enunciated disdainful practice,

It is none other than politics and crony contingency exposed and established as incompetent, unfit, carcinogenic besides intrusively offensive abusive and exploitative in nature and by design.

The bi-partisan rhetoric to ban TRUTH in the country is the epitome of underworld mob rule politics perturbed agitated in the unveiling of self-indignant abuse of authority.

In the process, the politics presumptuously taking the Supreme entity for granted assuming the phenomenal force to remain a silent spectator, in the foolishly referenced “Pitch Fork”description of the divine entity while elevating the incorrigibly corrupt criminal self as indomitable is incurable delusion.

Such decadent politics is the existential threat to humanity, environment, peace and meaningful progress and accordingly facing imminent peril and termination.

Who can and will banish whom from where or for that matter the planet is not even debatable.

The Supreme power as the creator, protector and upon necessary destroyer of anything instrumental behind cataclysmic outcome regarded dispensable demanding exile in itself is an invitation to individual and those in collusion collective apocalyptic end.

Hence, wanton provocation is best abandoned and avert undesirable ramifications.

Zionism and Hindutva Fundamentalism

December 12, 2023

Zionism

and

Hindutva Fundamentalism 

Padmini Arhant

Zionism declares itself a Jewish State of Israel in the dichotomy as the only democracy(?) in the Middle East.

Hindutva Fundamentalism actively engaged in transformation of a secular nation viz. India to Hindu state already in progress with renaming the nation as Bharat from India.

Zionism oppress, suppress, repress the targets with authoritarian rule.

Hindutva Fundamentalism silence targets with bullets  and / or invalidate ballots.

Zionism is entrenched in propaganda and indoctrination abusing religion as the premise to promote Zionist doctrine.

Hindutva Fundamentalism thrives on publicity campaign and 24/7 dissemination exploiting religion for political ideology. 

Zionism and Hindutva Fundamentalism are two sides of the counterfeit currency in politics.

Indian Politics Reality

September 23, 2023

Indian Politics Reality

Padmini Arhant

The excerpts from CBC News on the assassination of Canadian Sikh Harjit Singh Nijjar.

India – the country as the most invaded nation on earth by colonial powers to modern day treasonous power mongers in collusion with anyone baiting pseudo hall of fame, false felicitations and monetary rewards in quid pro quo is the status quo.

In exchange, the unaffordable economic transactions are forged at taxpayers’ expense benefitting the external political and internal specific oligarchs’ interests while leaving the overwhelming majority naked in impoverished conditions much to own embarrassment prompting the New Delhi regime to shield the existence of those population with temporary wall in Ahmedabad, Gujarat earlier in 2020 during the former U.S. President Donald Trump’s visit and recently September 2023 in New Delhi prior to G20 summit.

The supposedly largest democracy only proven major hypocrisy in light of rigged elections, unaccounted financial investments in horse trading involving buying and selling of elected representatives with illegal money in the state and national election in the absence of single party majority to form government nationwide and at the center is the norm.

As for the profile of political members in Indian politics in people’s assembly and the upper house of the Parliament, again alarming members have criminal records ranging from corruption, forgery, embezzlements, rape, murder to treason and relevantly terrorism.

The matter Indian politics asserts as national issue despite being the epitome of terror and horror to many in Kashmir, northern state of Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, North eastern states, Central states and remaining regions of the country.

The current regime – Bharatiya Janata Party, not long ago the western determined dangerous right wing fundamentalist denying travel visa to the incumbent PM Narendra Modi, then Chief Minister of Gujarat for the incontrovertible evidence in the massacre of thousands of innocent women, children, youth and elderly – largely Indian Muslims and fair percentage of Hindus falling victims to Hindutva leaderships heading Gujarat orchestrated communal riots and social unrest in 2002.

The key witnesses and testimony from Indian government employed IPS officer like Sanjiv Bhatt and several others sentenced to life imprisonment on false charges, incarceration and even murder of those daring to speak the truth on then Gujarat government and leaderships’ direct engagement in the gruesome atrocity.

The indelible crimes of Godhra violence in 2002 and subsequent gross human rights violations by then incumbent CM Narendra Modi led to arrest warrant issued in the state of New York.

The arrest was averted with then democrat President Barack Obama executive order for a right wing Hindutva leadership confirming politics’ convergence regardless of political affiliation. The gesture converted the political beneficiary – the alter ego of the empathizer.

To the contrary, the current democrat administration run by former President Barack Obama hardly cease pursuits of the opponent, the former President Donald Trump conveying through state media on the possible arrest of the former Republican President.

Bharatiya Janata Party, the political wing of the radical militant RSS, the ideological organization hijacking Hinduism colluded with colonialists in pre and now post independence India.

Under the current leadership of Narendra Modi, the party and government appointed cabinet ministers are associated with incendiary violent attacks, unleashed abominable human rights violations against any and all segments classified anti-Hindu.

The BJP members and allies instigating unspeakable crimes are fertile grounds for local disturbance through discriminatory central government policy -normalized in nature.

The latest being Manipur – the northeastern state riddled with inter community confrontations between Hindu and Christians resulting in grotesque killings of the latter not barring parading two Christian women of Kurki tribes bare naked in public square with the younger one gang raped by Hindu tribe wiping out her male members of the family in the slaughter.

The Hindu tribe in return facing retributions from those victimized… the BJP central government and state leadership tone deaf to these developments exacerbate pain and anguish on al sides until now.

In other violent episodes, the regular assaults, prejudice, isolation and marginalization of Indian Muslims, the so-called Dalits of Hindu Caste deemed untouchables in the backdrop of moon landing, the unsettled plight of Kashmiris and much more country wide elicit the Indian state of affairs under the current leadership.

The pertinent problem with BJP attracting huge credibility issue on terrorism is the sitting BJP member in the people house of the Parliament viz. the Lok Sabha. The member is none other than the controversial Pragya Thakur, having served jail time on terrorism for her pivotal role in bomb blast near Mumbai in the western state of Maharashtra.

The PM Narendra Modi personally campaigned for the election of the convicted terrorist Pragya Thakur in 2019– last general election not only ignoring then BJP candidate’s terror conviction and imprisonment but also slighted Pragya Thakur inflammatory remark hailing the assassin of the world renowned India’s freedom movement leader Mahatma Gandhi as the hero.

The BJP including PM Narendra Modi in agreement on memorializing the assassin Nathu Ram Godse with a statue in city square further explain the intense fundamentalism rife with acrimony towards peace and secular India.

In contrast, the photo op moments accompanying foreign leaders to late Mahatma Gandhi resting place (samadhi) laying wreath clarify the fake sentiment towards the slain leader aka India’s father of the nation.

The BJP representing RSS, whose member Nathu Ram Godse assassination of Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi, was the initialization process evolving into by far the most violent terrorist organization and political party wreaking havoc in the past and present century.

Indian politics, besides radical BJP, is representative of nepotism, dynasty, celebrity from film industry and sports, industrialists and royal remnants…in the much touted world’s largest phony democracy.

The government leadership at the center and politics craving for 24/7 good or bad publicity never miss opportunity in the wanton quest for prominence for all the wrong reasons to be in limelight.

Indian politics introspection on trajectory sponsoring terrorism on own soil against the minorities, marginalized, disadvantaged, disenfranchised and relevantly journalists, writers, authors, human rights activists and lawyers, environmentalists… persecution and arrests are paramount prior to presiding over elimination of purported terrorism against India by foreign citizens.

India’s enemies are within the political establishment and domestic shores substituting previous brutal foreign authorities. The complicity and complacency abusing power is the monumental betrayal of the nation and ordinary citizens since time immemorial and intensified in the present age.

The nation with commencement of terror in the assassination of the leader Mahatma Gandhi, instrumental in the independence movement is the tell all about the defiantly incorrigible polity.

Accordingly, Indian politics branding anyone else abroad a terrorist is a far cry.

These are serious events that should be raised by people in international domain with their governments and anyone maintaining ties especially the west’s public love-fest with the once western characterized Hindu fundamentalist leadership – Narendra Modi.

These events also shed spotlight on western democracy values, care and concern or the lack thereof for human rights at home and abroad.

Only evil would nurture evil.

History is testament to western demolition of democracy worldwide with the latest in Ukraine in 2014,. The ramifications of which endured by Ukrainians, Russians and the world at large – specifically the United States draining U.S. taxpayer dollars funding the ongoing war in the once peaceful Ukraine.

The western interventions until now stymieing democracy world over delivered extraordinary challenges for the targeted nations leaving them in worst possible conditions than before interference.

The western meddling in backing authoritarian regimes under the guise of democracy submissive to western agenda, invariably prioritizing profit, economic interests and strategic dominance at any costs not barring own citizens and armed forces lives easily dispensed as collateral damage revealing western hostility to real democracy and life in general.

Case in point among many world over –  the  CIA involved violent overthrow of the only democratic leader of Iran Dr. Mohammad Mosaddegh for the premier’s decision to nationalize Iran’s oil resources to benefit Iranian lives, the move rejected by the west in view of huge impediment to Dutch Shell Oil company and British Petroleum etc. 

The outcome – Iran is now under the control of theological hard line rulers banning women’s rights, individual freedom and anything related to democratic principles all of which the western world  apparently sidelined and formalize nuclear status, the key demand of the Iranian theological hierarchy much to their western ally Israel’s contention.

However, the moral on the western immorality of crushing democracy with tinpot dictatorships and authoritarianism is the western sponsored dictators and autocrats have met the inevitable fate on every account either by western authorized public lynching or their own oppressed citizens’ sentencing of the criminal leadership.

They were witnessed in once strong western allies – Iraq’s former President Saddam Hussein and Libyan leader Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, among others far and wide were western partners as long as they were in compliance with the western format and caveat.

The minute they falter or demonstrate change of heart and mind, that was crossing the red line for western deal makers moving ahead with the termination of not only relations, their lives as well in the commonly executed action.

India – Russian bargain and raw deal

April 29, 2023

India – Russia

bargain and raw deal

Padmini Arhant

Indian government’s defense procurement from Russia disproportionately increased since Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 until now.

The economic trade provides Russia the benefit of the best of both worlds in stymieing any western sanctions and simultaneously funding Russian aggression against Ukraine.

Indian government – New Delhi on the one hand claiming political edge over western policy snubbing sanctions in the import of Russian crude oil at huge concessions is far from reality.

Russian President Vladimir Putin having established the motto – no cheap bargains and definitely no freebies with economic partners in Europe or elsewhere, the Russian crude oil exports to India is pegged with Russian defense stock procurement.

New Delhi political dissemination on heavily discounted Russian fuel deal like all other propaganda serve as campaign material with national election in 2024.

In fact, the Russian energy discount is well and over compensated in Russia’s favor with higher markups on defense sales like Missiles and other artillery purchased by New Delhi following Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Russia is able to overcome economic strife with or without sanctions at New Delhi’s deficit essentially providing Russian President comfort zone to prolong military intervention in Ukraine.

In contrast, New Delhi expending taxpayers money on expansive and expensive defense budget largely at the defense force expense with the launch of controversial Agnipath sizably slashing defense personnel recruitment across three divisions – Army, Navy and Air Force besides denying armed forces retirement and medical benefits abandoned long held defense force conventions.

New Delhi’s mega shopping free boosting foreign economies while depleting Indian reserves and current account with imports far exceeding exports is also the administration incentives viz. bribe to foreign heads to corral international support to the head of the Indian government confronted with turbulence at home in many fronts beginning with Adani economic debacle  to Pulwama and Poonch gate on terrorism.

Meanwhile, none of New Delhi’s extravagant defense procurement evidently has deterred China in invasion and incursion of Indian territories and Himalayan terrains nor contained Pakistan’s terror outfits’ skirmishes along the Kashmir and Punjab border.

New Delhi regime economic divestment offshore worsening Indian financial liability to strengthen personal position in political system that has departed from democracy to autocracy is the red herring with 2024 election bugle sounding off trepidation among power and population disillusionment on national status quo.

Singapore – Capital Punishment

April 27, 2023

Singapore

–

Capital Punishment

Padmini Arhant

The island nation in South East Asia Singapore’s laws are well known domestically and in most parts of the world.

Singapore government’s rule of law on narcotics and any substance abuse subject to capital punishment is prevalent till date.

Those apprehended such as the defenseless citizens as minority and underprivileged social economic background with little or no opportunity to prove innocence is inarguably a tough uphill battle.

The citizen with above outlined profile facing the government as the judge, jury and executioner such as the government legislative body enacting the law, law enforcement and judiciary all combined under governmental authority as appointer and appointees obliging one another either out of fear and / or appeasement leave the accused and defendants entirely at the mercy of the process.

The domestic rules in crimes vary arbitrarily despite the rules such as capital punishment lacking more than adequate reasons beyond doubt prior to executions in violation of international humanitarian laws in the modern age.

Singapore government’s position defending capital punishment in drug offenses citing general welfare and safety of the entire population is a single dimension perspective in the otherwise multi-dimensional dynamics in the drug war.

In all of the problems, the apex i.e. the one at the top most in the pyramid structure directing the rest below reaching the bottom often remain unscathed prolonging status quo in the cat and mouse game.

The narcotics ring attracts those in politics, intelligence agencies, drug lords in Afghanistan, Asia to the Americas and world over, economic sector, entertainment industry, religion and relevantly those facilitating the sales, marketing and distribution as purveyors…all of them remain off the hook letting those falling easy prey to victimization bear the cross so to speak in absorbing the sins of all of the above mentioned culpable sources in society.

Singapore government justifying capital punishment in drug offense to protect citizens in country simultaneously extending the law curbing the origin through inter-governmental agreements would nip the umbilical cord in the first place.

Importantly, Singapore authority shutting down own corridor known as Singapore Hawala involving informal transfer of illicit money not barring narcotics transactions boosting Singapore foreign currency reserves in $$$billions would be rather meaningful and effective in the government measures to safeguard citizens’ interests at home as well as foreign destinations depleting those citizens’ economic status.

Any government’s extreme reactions in capital punishment against the vulnerable and the weakest in society and laxities to corruption criminality within political establishment raise credibility factor.

The government policies being oblivious to corruption such as gross mishandling of citizens’ retirement savings viz. Central Provident Fund (CPF) the law requirement on citizens’ mandatory contributions to fund own retirement, health, education and housing needs…essentially the most critical fund with citizens’ lives dependent on it literally gambled in casino with no recourse and,

Temasek Holdings scandal with extraordinary remunerations to CEO, Mrs. Ho Ching, the next of kin to the ruling power and many other secret yet explosive matter evading transparency and accountability are anything but beneficial to the citizens in the country.

Unfortunately, politics abandoning democracy, free speech, right to life, liberty, equal opportunity, fairness and Justice in the present time is at the precipice of unbridled lawlessness with no checks and balances to question authority on flagrant violations of ethics, corruptions and human rights violations committed as the privilege of power with political impunity.

As always anything abnormal is unsustainable and lead to imminent conclusion of such system.

India – Power is Responsibility

April 25, 2023

India

–

Power

is

Responsibility

Padmini Arhant

The Pulwama gate in Jammu & Kashmir in 2019 involving 40 or more murder of young personnel of CRPF directly under Indian Central Government, New Delhi intelligence, Defense Ministry, Home Ministry and National Security purview revived by none other than the New Delhi regime in collusion with so-called independent journalism in disguise.

Governorship is a post in Indian politics continued from the colonial era of British Raj.  However, contemporarily the post serve as nothing more than political pawn and weapon for corrupt authoritarian regime in New Delhi to launch cowardly nuanced attack against me (in adaptation of global masters’ strategy) – using various monicker from Tamil Nadu to Jammu & Kashmir and wherever applicable.

What is Governorship in Indian political system?

Under British Raj  in the absence of State autonomy and political representation via legislative assembly brought into political structure post Indian independence, the governor post was created to report to the colonial hierarchy at that time.

Indian politics retained the governor post though appointed by ruling government, originally under  President administration ambit in political system.

The President of India – the appointee through Parliament vote by members from the lower and upper house and states of the Indian Union.

The President prior to the incumbent regime rule was the head and commander-in-Chief of the combined defense force – Army,  Navy and Air Force besides being the head of Governors in the Union Federation .

The President also presided the upper house  – Rajya Sabha governance. The President position in Indian politics was not merely ceremonial like cutting ribbons on events nationwide.

President’s rule is one of governmental functions which is often enforced in Indian states upon state legislative assembly dissolution for reasons varying from ruling power losing majority to any serious political crisis in the state or Union territory of India.

Now the Presidential position and Governorship under the current regime in New Delhi like everything else made redundant. The entire functionaries and institutions from Chief of combined Defense Forces to basically all and everything…brought directly under Prime Minister’s control and absolute authority.

In the above detailed background;

Just a week ago, BJP appointed former governor of Jammu & Kashmir Satyapal Malik suddenly emerges in an interview on devious media channel sharing the Pulwama attack in February 2019 then barely before national election in May 2019 and several political usual corruption details leaving an impression of vague and ambivalent characteristics of the interview providing intended fodder for state channel networks and state recruited social media to raise scripted questions like –

Why is the Governor Satyapal Malik talking about 2019 Pulwama incident now in 2023?

Why did the Governor not resign after Pulwama attack and instead continued obliging ruling regime’s designated governor posts in other regions of the country?

What is the real motive behind the Governor spilling beans against Prime Minister with national election in 2024?

The usual political connivance played by the regime deploying own member of the governance – the governor to smear and discredit none other than the real adversary and staunch political critic – myself incessantly and obsessively pursued by politics for challenging status quo. The convoluted political tactics against me is baseless and debunked effectively on every occasion.

For the record – I’m not and have never been a member of any political party, faction, organization and infrastructure anywhere. My representation is solely and exclusively with the divine mission. The public statement in this regard is an established fact.

Soon after the Governor Satyapal Malik’s interview,  the channel wire presents a male guest apparently American Indian touted actor, activist and issues with New Delhi regime and local Karnataka politics.

The guest scenario in semblance with my profile on origin and nationality etc. except GENDER my female identity in the typical misogynist criminal indulgence replaced with male with occupation as actor in direct contradiction with my genetic and professional details. The other being the regional state of Tamil Nadu substituted with another southern state Karnataka.

The interview focus is the American Indian’s overseas citizen of India (OCI) status revocation. This is a permanent visa granted by Indian government to expatriates of Indian origin. The immigration status lobbied by overseas Indians was actually passed and made effective under former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s tenure.

The same now weaponized by current New Delhi regime against individuals of Indian origin abroad targeted as not anti-India or anti-government rather anti-Narendra Modi.

The regime has set few examples cancelling visa against voices expressing concern on Indian democracy transition to autocracy – precisely legitimizing the voices’ claim through the regime’s undemocratic and political intervention in immigration action.

In that interview the Kannada male actor is specifically asked by the interviewer Karan Thapar to comment about the chief of New Delhi regime – Indian Prime Minister.

The actor responds to that question by certifying the PM as not corrupt and further elaborates on the PM so-called sacrifice of marital and homely material life (?)threading the comment in positive affirmation regardless of the guest purportedly ongoing immigration problem not barring several arrests etc. with the regime according to the interview.

Subsequent to Wire interview of former Governor Satyapal Malik’s leaks on Indian Prime Minister’s advise to Governor Malik to remain silent on the Pulwama murder per the Governor’s disclosure during the interview,

The political maelstrom was expected which was again tactfully contained by the regime with full cooperation and coordination from state managed press and media.

Arguably the heat on Pulwama still on under simmering fire demanding the Prime Minister to offer explanation on dereliction of duty in Pulwama  gate.

The reasonable demand made considering the former State of Jammu & Kashmir demoted to Union Territory for the purpose of New Delhi regime direct authority on all Kashmir affairs – the security in particular under Prime Minister.

In the aftermath of consecutive failures in security only having escalated since Kashmir’s 370 Abrogation transformed into Union Territory under New Delhi regime’s administration,

The Pulwama is just one of many incidents with the latest being in the valley with Indian security forces reported casualties five personnel – four are reportedly from Punjab in the government stated terror attack in Jammu & Kashmir’s Poonch described as dastardly and horrific.

In this context, the channel wire features the guest this time is Amarjit Singh Dulat, the former Chief of Research & Analysis Wing with no specifics on which sector and industry so on…?

The guest Amarjit Singh and the interviewer Karan Thapar in this wire interview squarely blame the Indian military in Jammu & Kashmir as revealed in the image title and briefed as follows:

Kashmir Poonch Terror Attack April 2023 


“The Army dropped its guard” –  implying the Indian military allowed the loss of its own personnel in Poonch terror incident.

The assertions in this interview by both the interviewer and interviewee strongly suggest the military responsible for the lapse while confirming in the interview that military sanitized the passage prior to the terror assault.

There is no mention of the New Delhi regime responsibility in the interview given the Prime Minister’s overreaching consolidation of governance and ministerial portfolios in the One-Man executive role in the so-called world’s largest democracy.

Not to mention the references of acronym PAFF aided by the interviewer Karan Thapar in the expansion as – People for anti-Fascism Front allegedly associated with Pakistan’s terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed in the interview.

Interestingly one of my blog posts titled ‘Silencing Free Speech and Facts is Fascism’ attracted public comment positively in agreement with importance of free speech and facts to protect democracy.

The New Delhi regime’s insane obsessiveness and political sensitivity to articles published on this site and sub-domain not without unruly and undemocratic interceptions in publication to control free speech and freedom of expression is prompting relentless efforts to demonize and discredit factual presentations on issues related to India and humanity at large.

Notwithstanding the channel wire and the interviewer Karan Thapar collaboration with the regime clarifying the journalism in disguise as independent and investigative proved not necessarily as such in the above three interviews featured in the past weeks until now.

The charade is yet another innuendo on my independent position to raise doubts on the well substantiated content of the publications on Indian regime and all matter.

When in fact the New Delhi regime and the media viz. wire seeking public donations for the channel operation are incumbent to comply on checks and balances with integrity refraining from complicity and collusion to jeopardize real independent journalistic reporting and incontrovertible factual data on this site and sub-domain.

Wire and Karan Thapar – Whom are you actually working for?

and

Whom do you represent in these deliberate misrepresentations? 

No matter how the situations are circumvented on wire and assortment media platform, the ruling government in power is responsible to address public demand for explanation on Pulwama to Poonch terror on the regime’s watch as ultimate authority.

All said and done, the buck stops at the highest office on land occupying the position of power as authority with formal title and fanfare. 

Power is responsibility and not privileges and political impunity alone prevalent in the present setting.

India – Election Fraud

March 17, 2023

India – West Bengal 2021 Bypoll 

Padmini Arhant

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee projected as rival and so-called opposition to national political party BJP and incumbent in New Delhi, the former role in the state’s bypoll in 2021 is noteworthy for two reasons.

1. For voter awareness and awakening in the Chief Minister’s own state – West Bengal.

2. Another scene play with script and performance at national level is ready to roll in general election in 2024.

The 2021 bypoll in West Bengal – the ruling party Trinamool Congress (TMC) wins comfortably against national political party BJP with a large majority in the State Assembly headed by the Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.

Now individually, the TMC candidate Mamata Banerjee contested from two constituencies rather than just one – breaking the tradition held from 2011 – 2021.

In that bypoll – the West Bengal State assembly candidate Mamata Banerjee contested from her original home turf Bhavanipur against BJP’s female candidate interestingly bearing the name Priyanka Tibrewal.

Mamata Banerjee is reported to have won a major victory against BJP’s Priyanka Tibrewal with a margin of 58,832 votes in Bhavanipur constituency.

Source: The Hindu News – thehindu.com

October 3, 2021.

“Mamata Banerjee back in Bengal Assembly with Bhabanipur win

Bengal Chief Minister registers record margin of 58,835 votes over BJP’s Priyanka Tibrewal.”

In the same bypoll in 2021, the candidate Mamata Banerjee contesting in a different constituency Nandigram where she did not have a firm footing or popularity given voter grievances against the TMC chief is challenged by BJP’s male candidate Suvendu Adhikari who reportedly defeated Mamata Banerjee by 1956 votes. Though not a substantial margin, the defeat of Mamata Banerjee by BJP’s male candidate is registered important.

The difference in margin of votes in victory and defeat of Mamata Banerjee in two different constituencies deserve attention from voters in West Bengal and Indian electorate en masse for present and future reference.

The Bhavanipur constituency delivering victory to Mamata Banerjee is a wide margin 58,832 votes giving Mamata fancy wings to fly with BJP in national contest as defacto. In a way flattery and adulation in politics is never enough.

Contrarily, in Nandigram constituency, the low key 1956 votes a mere digit higher than Mamata Didi’s birth year is assigned to the loss to safeguard Mamata Didi’s image in West Bengal and national politics that is tarnished and damaged in controversial Sarada financial scam used by BJP against Mamata Didi.

The typical arsenal for sitting Indian Prime Minister and Home minister against members within and outside  political establishment, institutions and organizations they target for nefarious goals. 

These two glaring distinctions in the so-called electoral outcome in this bypoll in West Bengal is litmus test on electoral process legitimacy dismally  failing as it is clearly indicative of refined calibration of results to suit political manipulators strategy. 

That’s unfortunately the sad fate of Indian democracy and election credibility having become nothing more than a number for easy political maneuver however possible.

TMC Chief Mamata Nanerjee winning by significant margin against BJP’s Priyanka Tibrewal is attributed to Mamata Banerjee as the candidate. The rival BJP’s Priyanka Tibrewal on the other hand is the proxy nominated as Padmini Arhant by BJP losing miserably in the make-believe contest.

Simultaneously, BJP’s male candidate Suvendu Adhikari winning against the candidate Mamata Banerjee now this time is apparently Padmini Arhant.

The deeply insecure incumbent Prime Minister of India is using political factions and proxies to gain satisfaction from bizarre ridiculous imaginary swaps again borrowed from the masters to witness and rejoice my loss in elections that I am no part of  to begin with.

The same scenario is ready to be rolled out with none other than TMC Chief Mamata Banerjee cast as me i.e. Padmini Arhant with incumbent BJP Prime Minister candidate defeating Mamata Banerjee as Padmini Arhant with a landslide margin in 2024 national election.

That’s the reason TMC Chief Mamata Banerjee is advised to remain aloof from the rest of the opposition and announced the solo bid in 2024 general election to aid Indian PM’s devious agenda.

Indian incumbent Prime Minister, Home Minister and so-called political opposition in India kow-towing to international clique, their masters in global arena are reminded once and for all on status quo between you and me and that is explicitly fait accompli.

Accordingly politics squandering public taxpayers money in pseudo elections against me to serve egotistical megalomaniacal political aspirations is lunacy reflecting desperate times seeking desperate downfall – the current stark reality. 

What the TMC Chief Mamata Banerjee as the state’s Chief Minister must explain to voters in West Bengal and Indian electorate at large is the quid pro quo between West Bengal CM and Indian PM.

What exactly transpired between the two members prompting Mamata Banerjee to engage in 2024 national election as a single candidate?

What kinda of rewards promised and agreed to for this performance earlier in 2021 West Bengal bypoll and the one organized in 2024?

Indian democracy as such long been subverted and laid to rest. The political theatrics by the ruling and so-called opposition only deceive voters in West Bengal or any state and national electorate.

Indian politics is in serious crises with corruption, power struggle and plutocracy in governance.

Finally, reiterating earlier statement that I’m Padmini Arhant. My name is Padmini Arhant and not whoever wherever whatever name they choose for me that would be my identity. Such charade only confirm politics in fools paradise.

I say to Indian and international polity – the incognito in particular presiding over the ignoramus identity swap imposed on me as their prerogative.

I need no more namkarans – christening with any names of your choice or random naming which is.a serious violation of my individual right in identity theft mania ultimately hurting all those involved without exception in severe karmic effects.

India – Declassify Information

March 14, 2023

India – Declassify Information

Padmini Arhant

While fake news and incessant propaganda continues unabated on alleged threat to incumbent Prime Minister’s position and life,

When the contrary is true in abuse of power committing crimes with impunity throughout political career till date.

Indian politics – the ruling and so-called opposition collusion and complicity on many national issues is the norm. Among them, the electoral bonds inviting flurry of unlimited funds and illicit financing from anywhere nationwide and across the globe auctioning democracy and election is a leaf plucked out of yet another so-called democracy branch.

The United States’ Supreme Court ruling on unlimited corporate and special interests’ cache cashing in on political candidacy from top to bottom i.e. Presidential race to municipal, city and mayoral election is political establishment cash trove.

Indian incumbency raucous on sedition charges with slogan coined as Tukde Tukde gang translated as disintegration mob referring to one of Delhi Universities’  Jawaharlal Nehru Unuversity (JNU) students isolated and profiled on unsubstantiated sedition allegations.

In the backdrop of Indian politics unanimity in many critical national issues whether flouting democratic rules and principles in electoral process via controversial electoral bonds or evading surrender of illegal wealth stashed in offshore tax havens and exotic island nations by political class across the spectrum setting precedence for the rest to follow in economic, entertainment and religious cult,

Indian political unity at the state and national level in the non-disclosure of pertinent facts in the following matter concerning India and Indian republic especially in 75th anniversary of Indian independence celebration raise these questions.

The subject is related to none other than India’s nationally and internationally renowned patriots and iconic legends in their own rights who significantly stood up to colonial rule to free India from colonization.

India’s freedom movement leader Mahatma Gandhi – assassinated by RSS associated Nathuram Godse.

RSS – the fundamentalist organization never shying away from deal making with then imperialists for individual and Hindutva ideological interests had a member Nathuram Godse pulling the trigger on the leader Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi – the pioneer of non-violence independence struggle energizing the freedom March pre-1947.

India’s other proud son – the brave and tenacious Subash Chandra Bose having challenged British Raj oppression until his mysterious disappearance albeit known to Indian polity regardless of party affiliations such as Congress and BJP as two major national political parties seated in power since independence as dominion republic and until now.

Last nonetheless relevantly India’s exemplary political leader and office bearer – Prime Minister Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri who practiced righteousness and anti-corruption values – oxymoron in politics share similar classified information tag.

Then Prime Minister Shastri hailing the soldier and farmer in the famous slogan – Jai Jawan Jai Kisaan was genuinely a populous leader at that time. Subsequent to ending India – Pakistan war in 1965 with ceasefire and signing peace agreement to that effect in January 1966 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, the Indian PM is declared no more the day later.

Indian politics together with international ally summed up the contentious issue as heart attack behind Indian PM Lal Bahadur Shastri sudden passing away in Tashkent, Uzbekistan – then under former Soviet Union in 1966.

In 2023,

Are the Indian political leadership in New Delhi and political party BJP along with so-called opposition in Parliament and state assembly prepared to come forward and declassify information on unnatural cause of deaths of all three leaders?

Their sacrifice for the nation they endeared were exemplified with utmost commitment towards liberty and sovereignty?

1. What is the compelling factor for Indian politics to have accepted foreign and internal forces versions on all three leaders’ deceased status that remain highly speculative till date?

2. To whom are the Indian political class obligatory and pledged secrecy under oath in maintaining paradoxical data on India’s proud sons as veteran leaders and soul of Indian freedom?

Nottwithstanding Indian politics’ dismissal of Indian republic awareness on their leaders popularly known as Father of the Nation,

The leader Subash Chandra Bose creating Indian National Army defending self-determination of his nation and citizens against foreign subjugation and,

India’s truly honorable Prime Minister Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri whose words to the nation were translated into action and whose actions reflected unity and progress for entire country.

The late Prime Minister Shastri also a visionary who acknowledged farmers and soldiers as two guardian angels for a nation unlike the contradictory treatment of both defense personnel and farmers today under current national leadership and administration.

3. Finally, What is going to take besides courage and integrity for Indian politics at the national and state level to declassify real factual information behind unnatural deaths including one known assassination of these three leaders?
