Today, the Hindu-activist Bharayiya Janata Party BJP and the Election Commission of India are the only protectors of electronic voting machines in India. It is such a shameless war that these two have been waging against the world to retain it and BJP's rule in India. The nation is waiting to see if the judiciary will also join this run. They are even afraid to conduct a national referendum to see if these machines have the support of the people of India apart from these two! What is their right and ambition over those of the people?

When the world boycotts it and stops using it, they do not let go of it and hug it like a concubine, because turning away from history they have realized how useful it is for the instigation of a corporate rule in India like the erstwhile East India Company which ruled India even ruling over and controlling the British Government which controlled more and far powerful countries than the modern India, and for the formation of a pure Hindu Nation by toppling and overthrowing the secular republican democratic constitution of India. They have proved it before the world and before the people of India. After the electronic voting machines removing ballot papers from India, did anything else come up except the formation of Hindu Rashtra and corporate governance?

With one part of one lakh volume of paper used by BJP for printing its election posters, all the ballot paper for India could be printed. That's why the BJP’s and the Election Commission’s reiteration that they want ballot paper to be removed and electronic voting machines retained to protect the forests which are the source of wood which is the raw material for making the paper to print ballot papers and to avoid paper pollution only denotes the story of the secret marriage between the two. Considering India is the largest democracy in the world and where the greatest number of people votes in an election, when the lifespan of the millions of electronic voting machines that are manufactured every year expires- which is no more than two elections!- is it not a mountain of electronic waste going to reach the whole country? Is it reusable? Is there recycling? Which is more irreversibly polluting- the electronic voting machines or the ballot paper? Which needs the spending of precious foreign money reserves for importing expensive components? The Election Commission is floundering Hindu Rashtra without answer to any of these!

Then there remains only the cost of conducting the election through ballot paper and the time to count it. How many weeks did the Election Commission drag out the election period from 2024 April 19 to June 4 for facilitating the BJP Prime Minister and Reliance Representative Narendra Modi to campaign everywhere in India? Then why speak of the time for counting all these ballot papers? Isn't it the cost that then remains? How many lakh ballot papers can be printed at the cost of a single electronic voting machine? Will someone look at the cost of setting up a government that will have the authority to take lakhs of crores of rupees from the public purse and spend it?

India does not have a tradition of expelling those who seek asylum in India- only the ruling Hindu party BJP does! India's citizenship is not based on religion- that conviction belongs to the Hindu Rashtra BJP. The Indian National Congress’ several leaders, who are running to and joining the BJP even while knowing this, are highly reprehensible. They are those who do not see the Future India as a reunified nation, those who ignore that possibility, and those who fixate on the comfort of today. Not only the Congress leaders but also the leaders of the pseudo leftist parties in India like the Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPIM) who run to the BJP even while knowing this, are reprehensible and despicable in politics as well as in the name of statesmanship.

Plato from Greece in the 6th century BC and Jesus Christ from Palestine in the years of Christ were the most noted earlier refugees who sought salvation from the persecution in their native lands and seeing the light of knowledge and protection came to India! Although they did not stay longer enough to get citizenship, they were given asylum, trained as fighters, and were sent back by India to their native lands to continue their fight. The world witnessed the thrilling events that followed. How many of these refugees who are coming to India today will be like these, in the future world?

A twenty-first article was written and added to India's constitution to allow those arriving as refugees from abroad to live and work in India with dignity and to gradually receive Indian citizenship. The level of political ideas, thoughts, perceptions and principles in India were such great and high then. Citizenship for refugees without looking at any religion, caste or color criteria was taken for granted by the sons of India then and envisaged and assured in that way then in the Constitution of India. The Indian National Congress, the liberators of India from the British yoke, which had written and added it in the constitution and maintained it so far under their rule, demanding before the present BJP administration which has come together to change it that it remain so, is fairness, dignity and total pride for the people of India.

Introducing and passing the Citizenship Amendment Act was a pre-emptive legislative measure in advance, knowing that though justifying it by saying that it is for preventing the population from not going too high that this glorious right of citizenship to refugees was limited to those who have settled long ago will save a little time for their lie to last, in the course of time, India will become a more secular and united nation than it is today, and it will mark the end of the religious and political oppressors’ regime that is the BJP’s that is on the rise today through exploiting the extreme religious sentiments of the undereducated and uneducated Hindus. A pre-emptive legislative measure is in fact introduced and passed today in the name of Citizenship Amendment Act. How could permanent residents come as refugees?

They boast their law-making is final because it was passed by the Indian Parliament. Today everyone knows that if a popular agitation of sufficient strength arises, that law and any law they pass will backfire on them like many others have, because the people are above the lawmakers, not below, though these legislators assembled by the BJP don’t seem to think so. It was not one but three Agricultural Amendment Acts declared by them final and irreversible which were unconditionally canceled and withdrawn by summoning the Parliament and the Cabinet for a second time after a legendary farmers' strike.

There is an abundance of anti-nationals in India who see what India is as an ugly thing. Today their names are Bharatiya Janata Party, Rashtriya Swayamsevaka Sangh, Adani, Reliance, Patanjali, etc. When we hearken the name of India, the sound of India, we vibrate with pride, but they wilt, go flaccid, and urinate because of humiliation. So they were eager to change her name to something else unknown to the present day world!

In their convoluted, degenerated and rotten minds, the concept of citizenship is Hindus, Christians, Buddhists and Jains from abroad, but no Muslims, ever, especially from immediately neighboring countries. If they give citizenship to people from Pakistan and Bangladesh who were once Indians, who are exactly Indians without any difference in their faces, clothes and lifestyles, who still speak Hindi and are yearning to join the civic life of India and embrace the heart of India, they fear their sixteen thousand gods and goddesses they carry in their termite-frayed minds and believe somewhere exists will become angry!

These entities and enterprises Bharatiya Janata Party, Rashtriya Swayam Sevak Sangh, Adani, Reliance, Patanjali, etc., among those who today say theirs is pure Indian blood, no sweat and blood were mixed during invasions, occupations, conquering and subjugations by foreigners in wars and army moves for thousands of years, and no child was born from mutual mating, how much pure Hindu blood is there, and which of them has it? Other than the notions of birth and paternity mouthed by fathers and mothers, what base is there for their claims? Is there a written genealogy of the Hindu rulers and prominent Hindu families who existed before the rise of Christianity and Islam and who were born in India and not come from abroad kept, as those preserved in the church archives and royal palaces of England and in churches like Canterbury and universities like Cambridge and Oxford? How many years does their family history and bloodline go back? All these are just convictions, not facts, only whispers from mothers and fathers dear blue-bloods…! If they were not, would the RSS and these others have gone into hiding without participating in India's freedom struggle against their proclaimed Christian enemy the British- the real fight which only the Indian National Congress and the Indian Muslim League undertook?

Coming to the core of things, the people of these countries and the Indian National Congress hope that India, Pakistan and Bangladesh will unite again and become one, just like the two Germanys and a few other countries divided after World War II were united. That is what they are waiting for, and it is policies to bring about this that they are following. But if that happens, the Bharatiya Janata Party, the Rashtriya Swayam Sevaka Sangh, and the shadow rulers like Adani, Reliance and Patanjali will vanish and all of them, based only on extreme Hinduism, will lose their relevance. When the world's time is right for that, they are raising an emotional barrier against this unification of three countries and three peoples and preparing themselves for a final acrimonious battle, through their passing of the Citizenship Amendment Act which is a joint hybrid offspring of theirs, and the censure and denunciation of the immediately neighboring countries.

It is the Bharatiya Janata Party that is afraid to accept to India and accord citizenship to refugees from the four immediately surrounding countries like Bangladesh, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Burma because they will have to share government with so many Muslims from presently what are foreign countries, even while changing the name of India to Bhaaratham, dreaming of reclaiming and resurrecting the Emperor Bharata’s empire Bhaaratham which in that ancient past had consisted of so many lands including Sri Lanka (Rathna Dweepam then), Sindhu (India), Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal (Neppaalam), Afghanistan (Apa Ghana Sdhanam), Burma (Brahma Desam), and as far distant countries as Thailand (Amma Desam), Viet Nam, Siam (Syaama Raajyam) and a few smaller others! That is why the people have come to the conclusion that there is no politics in BJP's rule, that it is only a temporary opportunistic arrangement for some Hindu corporate rich men to exploit at will existing people’s markets and newly force-opened ones like Kashmir for a short period of time while in power, and to eat, grow fat and expand before the world in a way that has never been seen before.

What difference is there between the head-broken Kerala State Loka Ayukta and the Central Election Commission? Aren't both reflecting the opinions and wishes of those who subjugated them and backing them by ignoring some of the existing laws without fully understanding any laws and only pointing out a few others of the existing laws?

If it was Pinarayi Vijayan who broke the first one in Kerala, was it not his political partner Narendra Modi who broke second one at the Centre? Weren’t both for being in power and not get caught in corruption? Were both works the honest men do? Aren't both of them with the same political moves and life goals? Both with the help of corporates carried out coups in their own parties, got into government, live for corporates, and while in government pour all the public money they control into corporates without any dignity and self-esteem of politicians, and it they call it development!

The party of the one at the centre collects money through bonds from the big money launderers of the country through banks, and the party of the one at the state collects black money through direct corruption and smuggling, and also launders corruption money and bribes through banks.

The President of the country after a heated and heavy political brawl between the State Governor and the Chief Minister of Kerala ratifying and endorsing the amendment of law passed by the Kerala Legislative Assembly led as the Assembly Leader by the Chief Minister and pseudo-Marxist leader Pinarayi Vijayan who already faces cases against him in the head-broken Anti-Corruption Judicial Body the Kerala Lok Ayukta to the effect that even if they find him and them guilty of corruption and issues a verdict none of the Chief Minister himself and his Cabinet Ministers need immediately resign as earlier they had to but whether he or they need resign shall be decided on his or their appeal by the State Legislative Assembly majority-orchestrated by him and themselves, was a severe blow and setback to the already picking up anti-corruption movements in the state as well as in the country. The Centre has not come up with the much publicized comprehensive anti-corruption Law the Lok Pal either.

Similarly, after invalidating five or six unimportant actions/decisions/legislations by the central government and deluding people that everything is fair in the running of this country, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court very lightly and unconscientiously upholding the very important and significant new central law amendment that as against the country’s long-standing policy and decision hitherto that the Central Election Commissioners shall be selected and appointed from a panel jointly by the Judiciary’s representative the Chief Justice, the Legislature’s representative the Opposition Leader in the Parliament, and the Executive’s representative the Prime Minister of the country, from hence now forth shall be decided jointly by a committee consisting of the Legislature’s representative the Opposition Leader and two Executive’s representatives the Prime Minister and the Home Minister, with no representative at all from the Judiciary, only taught the people that it was for upholding the latter smoothly and convincingly that the invalidation of the former were undertaken, and that the amendment in the selection process of the Central Election Commissioners was solely for the purpose of easing electoral irregularities and ensuring the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party’s continuance in rule. Why is the judiciary bending so much, apparently stooping before the Executive, in front of the people? The Supreme Court reasoned (ridiculously and dishonestly) that there was no time to look at the law or current practices as the elections were too near! Who has no time for law- the Judiciary or the Executive? How many times in the past has the Judiciary said law cannot be looked at because there’s no time?

173. Did the British thrust partition on India in 1947? Didn’t people also want it?

Did the British thrust partition on India in 1947? Didn’t people also want it?

1

The partition of India in 1947 after independence was not thrust upon the people of India by the British. There were strong factions- Hindu and Muslim- working inside India then, demanding formation of a Hindu-dominant nation in India and a Muslim-dominant nation in Pakistan. Only a few leaders and people wanted India to remain undivided and from records we know who they were. If all leaders and people of India wanted India to remain independent, secular and undivided, no one including the British would have been able to divide India into two. Even after 72 years, debased national leaders are making hate speeches. Guess how strong this mentality would have been at the time when it was decided that the British would leave, leaving India to its own destiny. So India became two nations. When Hindu leaders make hate speeches, the Muslims would feel insecure under them and want a separate Muslim state for them. That was what happened in 1947. After the withdrawal of the Indian National Congress from the political scene and the emergence of a Hindu Party, this hate mentality also is reemerging with double strength. Within a few years we will see what happens. 

2

 
The partition of India in 1947 was prompted by factional currents working in India. It was not just a political resolution arrived at by the British Parliament and Crown. Communal, religious and gender discrimination of every kind working in society through generations for decades, even centuries, pushed things towards the inevitable culmination of partition. These communal, religious and gender discrimination suppressed by the Free India’s administration for a time is now working again, more forceful and widespread than before, moving things towards an inevitable culmination in what? Since the installation of a Hindu government in India, hate speeches and hate actions are increasing many-fold and the government is apparently totally helpless in the front of this abominable development in India. They unleashed this Satan for agitating people for political gains and now they are unable to stop it, even hinder it. In 1947 there were a few intelligent and magnificent national leaders who also had a hold over international matters to control this hate movement and finally harness it. But now there are no such intelligent and magnificent national leaders who have a say in international politics and can control this new hate movement. The only person prominent in global politics and who whole heartedly supported this new hate movement in India by all means- the U. S. President- is facing impeachment proceedings in America. 

3

Since the partition in 1947 of India into two countries, India has no rights over the land or people in Pakistan nor has Pakistan any rights over India. The partition was final, and binding to both parties. None of these countries are bound to accept refugees from the other country for whatever reason, legally. The gist of the presently ongoing hate speeches in India is that if dissatisfied with a Hindu rule, Muslims can go to Pakistan anytime. Not a few Hindu political leaders and ministers have already hinted this and are continuing repeating this threat unchecked. Neither the India government nor the Supreme Court of India has taken any legal action against these leaders and cabinet ministers on account of these threats. So the general consensus among Hindu politicians is that if forced enough the Muslims will go to Pakistan and India will become a country free of Muslims. 

4

It is only a dream that Pakistan would accept the Muslim population of India if conditions in India worsen and these people are forced to flee. Just like India declined to accept refugees from Bangladesh and Burma, Pakistan can, and will, decline to accept refugees from India. Bangladesh was forced to accept its refugees back from India. In a similar way, if things come to that, India too will be forced to accept refugees from India back from whichever countries they flee to. Suppose the state of affairs in India moves towards conditions akin to partition, this means that Pakistan is not obliged to accept Muslim refugees from India as other Muslim countries in the world like Malaysia, Iran or Saudi Arabia also aren’t, because these Muslims aren’t their citizens but India’s. 

5

When the Rohingyan Muslims from Burma were illegally immigrating to India, India tried to prevent it, by saying these militant fighters who have fought long with the Burmese government would be a security risk to India and that they would unbalance the ethnic position in the Hindu-minority Jammu-Kashmir where they settled in large numbers. India refused to accept these refugees but they raised the Right Against Expulsion law in the Supreme Court of India. Anyway the settlement of these refugees in Kahmir was one of the prime factors which eventually led the pro-Hinduist BJP regime in India to bifurcating Jammu and Kashmir. Pakistan will raise this same ‘threat to national security’ issue to prevent Indian Muslim refugees entering their country if and when things come to that. 

6

So the end result would be splitting India again or imposing German-style concentration camps and mass murder chambers which the world won’t wait to see or allow for any reason. With every kind of weapons in stock at disposal, the world will not just stand and watch. Do you know why atom bombs were detonated in the Second World War in Japan which country was already sending out envoys to the neutral Switzerland as feelers for peace agreements? Entering mainland Japan and defeating that country, it was estimated, would have cost 10 million American soldiers’ lives. So they decided to make it cheap and destroy Japan through atomic bombs which were easier. If ever India creates a problem of Muslims fleeing India and becoming refugees in other countries, these other countries- all Muslim Christian and Communist countries- will wait only till all Muslims have fled India. 

And do not anyone think about and find solace in the prospect of Pakistan too splitting into two again like India in a nearby future. There is not such prospect in the horizon with their Chinese affiliation.

The Science Museum at South Kensington, London, UK, founded in 1857 exhibits invaluable articles in the history of science and regularly holds special exhibitions the entry to which are free. Recently they unveiled a new exhibition on India of historical objects belonging to India’s rich hidden scientific past, especially looking at ancient India’s achievements in mathematics, metallurgy and civil engineering. This exhibition covers several centuries of Indian history, from the ancient past of the Indus Valley Civilization to the 19th and the early 20th century developments, with relics from the time under the British Colonial Rule to show how colonial rule helped India develop science. The artifacts abruptly stop at the beginning of the 21st century, meaningfully.

The BBC World Service Discovery last on 8th October 2019 aired a science discovery news broadcast titled ‘India's Ancient Science’, covering the India exhibition at the Science Museum. Do you know why the BBC released this special 23 minutes issue on the glorious past of India now? While supposedly ‘rediscovering influential Indian ideas on mathematics, metallurgy and engineering’, it’s a political stunt. Read, or listen to, their words very very carefully. They issued it to stress that India has had a great past in ingenious science, technology, philosophy, literature and politics, but now India is being ruled by undereducated and uneducated morons, and India now has to borrow science and technology from other countries abroad and the people of India are neither alert nor bold enough to respond to this moronic and boorish regime as courageously as they even very recently in the middle of the 20th century forced the British out of India. Especially note these lines of theirs: ‘The past does matter, and it mattered especially a hundred years ago, as Indians fought to establish their independence from the British in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, their scientific history was a reminder, that if they could do such great things before, they could do them again now.’ It is common knowledge and everyone knows it. Then, why now? BBC knows well the attitude of the British people (not of their government) in their keenness and that of the Indian people in their resignedness towards India’s ‘democracy’ is changing.

What should Mr. Rahul Gandhi do- show his neck for more betrayal from Communist parties, regional parties, and his own partymen?

The Indian National Congress’ President and the Communist Party of India (Marxist)’s General Secretary did their best before the 2019 Parliament Elections to convince Marxists in the states including Kerala that a Congress-Marxist Alliance at the national level is a must and is what the time demands to thoroughly defeat BJP, but what did the Marxists in Kerala under the leadership of Mr. Pinarayi Vijayan and Mr. Kodiyeri Balakrishnan do? They laughed out their General Secretary’s option and contested the elections against Congress! Congress was willing to share eight seats with them but they opposed Congress and ended in winning only one seat in Kerala. The Communist Party of India which was the first to argue for a Congress-Communist Alliance and which spent thousands of eloquent hours to elaborate on the need for such a political alliance, when the elections came, turned 180 degrees and put up their candidate against Mr. Rahul Gandhi in Wayanadu! So, Mr. Rahul Gandhi perfectly well understands what betrayal is, especially betrayal by the Communist parties of India. These two Communist parties were not even willing to accept that Congress’ massive defeat was entirely due to election manipulations by the BJP and Reliance. Finding it not pleasant to antagonize Reliance, they sought other explanations for Congress’ defeat. They still do. What should Mr. Rahul Gandhi do- show his neck for more betrayal from these two Communist parties, other regional parties, and his own partymen? In the wake of state elections in October 2019 it is alleged by these Communist parties and the Congress itself that he is nowhere to be seen and is supposed to have gone abroad for something personal. It is also known that all opposition political parties in India are boycotting the local body elections in Kashmir since almost all opposition leaders are put in jail by BJP. Betrayers need no leaders; it’s natural. Let him go somewhere- anywhere- and lick his wounds. He is young and he has time. If he pulls out of Congress’ leadership now, it will be the greatest blow to the two Communist parties, because from then onwards it will be their sole responsibility fighting and defeating BJP. Thus these two Communist parties will be forced to stop secretly supporting BJP and doing everything for its victory, but antagonize BJP and come in the open fighting them.

Rules and laws are made in thousands by the people’s representatives in the parliament and the state assemblies but they did not make any law to imprison, fine, payment of election expenses, disbarment from future elections or hang those MLAs and MPs who change the party he was elected from before his term is over and betray the voters in his constituency. We would expect our representatives in the various law-making bodies to have made such decent laws for the country but they did not. That is why we never hear about such laws. That is because they always are thinking about jumping parties and being bought for huge amounts of money by the other side. So that’s why they do not make it a crime severely punishable by law. How convenient! After people voting an MLA or a MP for an ideal or a party, he can jump that party in groups and join another party or even form a new party! There is no punishment for such betrayal of voters in a constituency by their parliamentary representative!! So this jumping of parties by people’s representatives has been going on in India for so many years. In fact all political parties in India except the original Indian National Congress and the Communist Party of India were formed out of this party jumping by betrayers of voters. We have never heard any of these representatives punished, fined, disbarred and/or imprisoned for betraying people as it is plain betrayal of people.

For a few years we have also been hearing about representatives being ‘bought’ for incredibly huge prices. Unless India is not a democracy human beings cannot be bought and sold. It must either be a non-democracy or it must be non-humans involved. So these MPs and MLAs who are now being bought and sold for a price are now not human beings but just cattle. Do not think it is just a simile. The question that every Indian asks publicly when they hear about news of a few MLAs or MPs having been bought and sold for a price is ‘are they cattle’. Why should cattle represent human beings in parliament and assemblies? If human beings, considering the sacredness and urgency of democracy, can spare a little time go sitting in parliament and state assemblies by bodily presence or by online, why depend on cattle to run that democracy? Technology has advanced from the time of ancient Athens and a little-time-later-Rome to nullify the effect of the increased population on the limited space of parliament and assemblies. 

So, gradually, the people of India are loosing confidence not in democracy but in people’s representatives. Good. It is very good for democracy. It is moving towards a ‘people versus people’s representatives’. It is people who own their representatives once they are elected to a parliamentary body by them, not the political parties which nominated and hoisted them. What happens when our representative or servant betrays us and goes to the other side? Knowing that good servants won’t be available for a long time to come, we simply dismiss him from our employment and take up his job ourselves. Here in this case people simply dismisses representational democracy and switches to representational democracy, first in their mind, and then in the body politic. No one would have paid a price for those representatives had they not been anyone’s representatives. So why not do with those representatives and everyone ask their price?

It is not Hindi but creating a rebellion on Hindi that is important to the Hindu party of India

1. Trying to sell single-language Hindi sentimentality to multi-language people.


For a very long time, there have been no conflicts, rebellions or riots in India in the name of languages. Some people cannot tolerate such periods of rest and peace and let people go on inert like this for long. They want attacks, blood and murder to survive, especially those who do not ideologies in life. They want riots to be made, to distract people’s attention from what they do in politics, government and religion in their own country and in foreign countries. What better way for the Hindu party BJP of India than to engineer a rebellion by imposing the single language Hindi on a multiple-language people? Failed because of the vigilance of the people of India in their many attempts to create rebellions using the beef and several other similar issues recently, they are in urgent need of a rebellion to continue in power as a political entity. Now they are trying to sell the language sentimentality of a few northern states to other states and find a way to move the army in.

2. An early attempt to impose Hindi resulted in people’s changing the historical name of Madras State to Tamil Nadu.

Remember the rebellion when the Nehru government in the independent India tried to impose Hindi in Tamil Nadu which was the Madras State then. It was the vehemence and furor resulted from this attempt to impose Hindi that these Tamilian people changed the name of their state from Madras to Tamilnadu to underline their love for their language. It was a warning against ever trying to do this again. Many lives were lost in that rebellion and many shops and offices burnt. Many people took their lives also, saying they will die before their language was taken from them which was their mother. The people who tried to exploit people’s sentimentality for mother language for political gains were true enemies of the state and ought to have been hanged or expelled from the country then, if any heathen countries were willing to accept them. Anyway, the attempt to impose Hindi was withdrawn by the central government then.

3. Displacing English is to limit the opportunities in the world to an elite few.


Those who want to learn Hindi and Sanskrit in Tamilnadu are free to learn and teach it there. There is no ban. No one interrupts. There are no restrictions. But they won’t allow any coercion for any language at any cost. Mother tongue is a very sensitive issue and anyone who tries to displace it is considered as people’s enemy there as it is in all non-Hindi speaking states in India. Almost everyone knows English in India and anyone who is not willing to learn it does so at his own risk. Such people are found only in the heart of India comprising on a few Hindi-speaking states known generally as the Hindi belt. People in the other states are not willing to take this risk. And, anyone wishing to use it as a national and international communicating language can continue to do so if the world will speak to them in Hindi. One cannot compel the world: there are other languages. In this age of world travels, intermingling and communications, no one can be allowed to displace English and impose Hindi or Sanskrit. It is depriving a very big nation- actually the second largest in population in the world- of the vast opportunities in education and employment the world provides and limiting those privileges to a supposedly elite few.

4. Imposing Hindi aimed at diverting people’s attention from foolish mammoth projects created for vain media attention.


I assume you are supposing the opposition to imposing of Hindi on all states by a central government is expected only after a central government does that but not before, in anticipation of what one government would do as gauged from a series of its previous acts. In fact I was noting the act of imposing Hindi by a previous government, its impacts and why that governmental move had to be stopped. You are now asking why and how I came to know that the central government is going to take steps to impose Hindi on all non-Hindi-speaking states. For one thing, as you are writing this in a Face Book Group in the social media, so many other people are writing and posting in so many other Face Book Groups in the social media, especially those particularly and notably associated with the party I mentioned, about why the central government is not imposing Hindi AND Sanskrit, i.e., in groups functioning in non-Hindi languages. Total presence of such posts in those languages and total absence of such posts in Hindi language groups is meaningful in that these post creators want a rebellion against Hindi to be created in non-Hindi speaking languages to divert people’s attention from spending national revenue foolishly on mammoth projects of vain media attention-building like building the world’s highest statues and going to the moon. Do you understand or pretend not to understand?

5. BJP had been formulating a Hindi-imposing education bill by government and also campaigning for Hindi and Sanskrit in social media for long.

A draft new education policy bill will take not a few days to prepare but months and years. The draft New Education Policy (NEP) Bill by the Government of the BJP did propose Hindi as a compulsory language in schools and universities and this party and its beneficiaries and cronies had been deeply immersed for months and years in formulating, preparing and proposing this bill. During the same period, their party-men and supporters were campaigning in social media for the imposition of Hindi and Sanskrit- a dual move. They were going forward with full steam till the first week of June 2019. Then contents of the proposed bill came out and Tamilnadu politicians raised their opposition first. So, from June 3rd and 4th, BJP began to publicize that they have no intention of imposing Hindi. For everyone’s information- they used the very word ‘imposition’.

6. Had the central government not compulsorily supported Hindi, the people of India would have been fluent in English now.


There is a strange fact associated with the absence or presence of Hindi in a region in India. In fact how many states speak Hindi and how many states speak other languages? Had the central government in the past not initiated movements to support, promote and spread Hindi, where would have Hindi stood now? Ninety percent of the people in the present Hindi belt would have been speaking fluent English now and of course freed of caste and communal orientation. The highest literacy states would have been in the present Hindi belt. Where Hindi is absent, caste and communal orientation is less. Where Hindi is omnipresent, caste and communal domination is present. That is why Kerala eventually became the state of highest literacy in India and Tamilnadu became the state with the highest standard in English in India. The North Eastern Frontier States also are fairly well-versed in English. Where Hindi hesitated to come, caste and communal dominance vanished and literacy and English came.

7. Loving a language is not being blind to its shortcomings or to the advantages of other languages.


Indeed Hindi is much broader and widespread than Malayalam or Tamil but because of their embracing the indescribably broader and widespread English when compared to Hindi, the Keralites and Tamilians did not feel any shortage or deficiency at all in knowing not Hindi. They spared that time advantageously to learn English. In fact, they turned their loath of Hindi into the love of English. As a result, Tamilnadu is now one of the states in India with the highest literacy and fluency in English. There is no romanticism or sensationalism in telling them that because they do not know or learn Hindi they are not patriots. If you tell them that, they will say that it is to take away literacy and English from them and bring back caste and communalism as is now in the Hindi states region that a few traitors are trying to impose Hindi on them, which is true anyway. Still, because of these states’ high literacy and their bigger publishing industry almost all fine Hindi books get translated into their languages and reach them. Remember that Hindi has been in existence for centuries but it was only after English language came and spread that India’s freedom struggle began to form in full. When we love a language, we shall not be blind to its shortcomings or handicaps, or to the advantages of other languages. Languages can be used to liberate people or to plunge them to darkness.

8. Keeping the dark states dark and making the lighted ones also turn dark.


Political parties that want to draw nourishment for growth from superstition, caste and community orientation, non-education, financial backwardness and religious zealotry find it convenient and useful to concentrate on the Hindi belt of states where all these negative (negative as viewed by progressive-minded people) nutrients or traits are in plenty or rampant. BJP is the finest example for doing this and they have been doing nothing else except this for decades. They collect the majority of their Parliament Members and Assembly Members from these states. But there are only nine states in India comprising the Hindi Heartland or the Hindi Belt where majority of the people speak Hindi and it is the official language: Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh. Certainly the BJP cannot limit themselves to these nine states for ever if they want to rule India for a long time. If they want to spread to the other states, they have to either shed their negative preferences or convert the other states too to negative mindsets. Of course they cannot shed their negative preferences. So, naturally, they turn to the other and the only choice left to them- imposing Hindi officially on the non-Hindi-speaking people of India in the other states of Kerala, Tamilnadu, Mizoram, Manipur, Tripura, Assam and Bengal, and deprive them of light and free thought like those people in the heart of India and turn them all too to darkness, before the Hindi-speaking states inevitably follow the non-Hindi-speaking states to light.

9. BJP leaders’ attempt in Hindi is to become national heroes where they failed miserably in becoming international heroes.



So, it is not Hindi but creating the rebellion against Hindi that is important and vital for BJP. BJP is a restless criminal-minded leviathan, determined to split people by whatever way, rule, and go on with clandestine objectives and agendas. The inability to learn the international language English is not an excuse to spread the national language Hindi. It will spread without anyone’s compulsion if people need it, because it is a beautiful language rich in literature. But BJP shall not use it as a trick to deceive the people of India to take away the benefits of English and their own languages as a way to take away their freedom and liberation and to make them blind communal slaves again. Most people in India who know English also know Hindi, but the most people in India who know Hindi do not know even a word in English. The Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi was fluent in English and Hindi as well as several other languages including Afrikaans. He stole the heart of the world through his truthfulness, sincerity, simplicity and humbleness. The First Prime Minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru was fluent in English, Hindi and quite a few European languages and he became a loved one of the world through his knowledge and books. The most renowned President of India Dr. S. Radhakrishan mastered Tamil, English and Hindi and gained the respect of the whole world through his lectures, teachings and scholarly books. What has the BJP leaders to show? So, the BJP leaders’ attempt in Hindi is to become national heroes in the eyes of the illiterate and substandard where they failed miserably in becoming international heroes.
