commendable job to prevent terror attack

Whatever may be the reaction of media or the members of opposition parties on the candid admission of bitter truth of system by Home Minister Mr. Chidambaram, I take an opportunity to praise him for his boldness and straight forwardness.

No one can deny the fact that after taking charge of Home department, Mr. Chidambaram has done a lot of commendable work to reduce the chances of terror attacks and he has succeeded in this task to a great extent. A man who realizes the shortcomings of the system and boldly accept it can only ponder over ways and means to overcome shortcomings. One who understands the nature of crime can only stop or reduce its recurrence. Home Minster has at least penetrated into the matter and seriousness of terror attacks and taken best possible steps to fight it tooth and nail.

Person like Mr. Shiv Raj Patil did nothing during his tenure of Home Minister to prevent recurrence of terror attacks and this was why that frequency of terror attack went on rising and loss and damage to public life and property went on unabated. On the contrary Mr. Chidambaram has put his house in order. All concerned departments have started functioning properly and result is bound to come. In fact the result is visible that no terror attack took place during last one year and it has been right claimed by ruling party that more than ten probable terror attacks have been nipped in the bud.

Not only this, even country based Naxal activities have been halted and put under strict t monitoring. There is at least fear in the minds of problem creator. This fear complex will at least stop fuelling the fire of terror, domestic or external and help in extinguishing the fire and dilute its intensity slowly.

It has to be kept in mind by opponents of Chidambaram and critic of his latest candid admission that terror attack did not occur due to good luck that in a vast country like India or for that matter anywhere in the world ,anyone who is ready to die can damage anywhere ,anytime and any person or any property.

After all government cannot read the minds of whimsical mad men or mad organizations formed to destroy and disturb the peace and tranquility of living society. The great success of governance and administration lies in creation of fear in the minds of criminals and Mr. Chidambaram must be praised for his right efforts in this direction. I endorse the idea of Home Minster in formation of separate Ministry for internal security and separate ministry for handling other domestic issues.

Extortion or Anarchy

Pragnent woman was thrashed and paraded naked in Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh by local goonda elements when she denied and protested encroachment on her land.

This incident reveals the true character of land mafias who are active in almost all big towns, cities and metros. Powerful and resourceful person dealing in land or real estate builders or developers use to search land where owner is weak or dead and where good apartment can be built and handsome profit can be earned. They have enough goondas in their workforce (said to be mesons and labours) and musclemen who can by hook or by crook convince the owner of the property to sell the property at price set by musclemen/ agent of land mafias. If anyone protest or deny selling or vacating such land he or she has to face fatal consequences as happened with a poor woman in Lucknow yesterday.

At least one of out of four apartment built in town will tell the story of exploitation, coercion and intimidation if CBI inquiry is conducted honestly and seriously. Even many politicians and ministers are actively indulged and involved in such dirty activities and they have accumulated huge wealth and are in possession of many princely palaces.. When protectors become exploiters, destruction and damage is inevitable.

Dadagiri tax is collected in fact from all those who construct their house or purchase a flat or purchase a land or a commercial space in almost all towns and somewhere in villages too. Even various Naxalite groups are also active either openly or in disguise in such ugly tasks in naxalite affected areas. District administration or block officials and even police force think it wise to remain silent spectators and if possible realize a part of profit by way of bribe or commission.

It is open secret that the aggrieved people in general do not have courage to lodge report in Thana or complain to the concerned district authorities for redressal of his grievance. If someone dares and attempt to go against the will of the exploiters / extorters / or land mafias whatsoever one may term it , he or she has to face the repercussions sooner or later. There is none in our country who can assure justice. People are now habituated and accustomed to bear with such torture and they also prudently and wisely pay the local Dadagiri fee and lead a peaceful life. After all it is rreal estate sector where huge black money can be parked without any fear of penalty from Income
Tax authorities. It is also true that most of the workers and officers working in such tax departments have also collected their share and become men of millions and crores.Who will bell the cat?

As a matter of fact small scale Dadagiri tax is realized from even those who park their vehicle on busy road, bus stands, taxi stand, outside platforms, near any park or mela or stadium not by any government agent but mostly by local musclemen. Town administration and Thana people extend their indirect support to such exploiters and this is why such type of open loot continues unabated. Rather such ugly affairs have spread in all fields including education and medicine.
Can media people highlight such incident and compel the administration to stop such illegal activities going on in the country.

Dealyed punishment or No Punishment to criminal promotes crime

The main reason for all maladies prevailing in our country is our weakest judicial system. Our politicians also do find it in their interest that decisions on all criminal charges in the court are delayed by years and years Criminals are not criminals as long as they are proved in the court of law. It is a fact that Justice delayed is justice denied. It is also a fact that delayed justice promotes culture of crime and eliminate fear complex from the mind of those who are habituated to commit crime. Real mockery of judicial system is visible after decades when criminals are acquitted or given clean chit.
Mr. Kasab had attacked Mumbai along with several other terrorists in last November, every Indian knows it well. But have anyone right to say Kasab as criminal as long as he is not proved so by court of India. Had he been Indian citizen he could be given ticket by secular congress party to contest the election to motivate Muslim votes.
There are lacs of cases pending in various courts for disposal for more than 10 years and there is no hope that any court in India will ever be free of such huge lot of pending cases. Because judges either do not want to dispose off the case under the pressure of bribe money they get through advocates, or the system is provided too little number of judges and supporting staff to take up the cases and disposes of in minimum time or there are various legal constraints which prolong the process of pre-decision judicial process. Whatever may be the reason behind the delay in justice, it is open secret that during last more than sixty years of freedom no substantial efforts have been taken to remove the bottlenecks, to eliminate the prevalent corrupt practices in the courts and to quicken the process of justice.
The day Indian citizen are sure of quick delivery of justice, millions of cases will be added to judicial system for getting justice. To avoid this, government does not provide enough manpower to courts. There is no proper safety of judges or even court staff or advocates who show courage to speak truth and decide the case truly.
These results in increase of foul game being played by criminals with their money and muscle power .Bad elements are more active and effective in the courts .And honest, straightforward and innocents find themselves as handicapped and disabled to get their work done and under the pressure and diplomacy of bad elements, good persons are discarded, tortured and finished. It is therefore open secret that majority of really aggrieved person think it wise to digest the poison of injustice than to file a case in the court and face the crucial trial and unbearable torture of the system for decades.
In India, there is a practice that police officer in Thana will not accept FIR from general mass in easy way and claim that there is no crime or very little crime in the town. Politicians and minister in Government will not hesitate in taking credit for the same that they have provided crime free rule to the people of their area. Even if cases are lodged there will not be any follow up action due to some reason or the other. If charge sheets are framed, they proved ineffective in the courts. Finally if cases are registered, the same goes through trial for decades and remain undecided.
At the same time politicians and criminals take it comfortable and convenient when some one files cases against them because he understands the weaknesses of the judicial system .This is why criminal move in the market so freely and even get ticket for contesting election for Parliament and state assemblies or get privilege for posting in VIP posts .
Politicians like Jaddsih Tytler are given clean chit after 25 years of judicial trial against him. Late Rajiv Gandhi , Ex Prime Minster of India faced prolonged mental torture , crucial judicial process and troublesome political blackmail from his opponents on Bofors charges and after his death the key complainant Mr. V. P. Singh accepted and expressed publicly that Rajiv Gandhi was not actually involved in Bofors case. There are hundreds of such examples where political leaders are acquitted from the courts and CBI on some plea or the other. One can very well imagine the fate of general mass who dares filing a case in Indian court. In a country nothing may be more disheartening and painful where criminals are not punished even after decades and aggrieved are not hopeful of justice from the courts for decades from legal system and police departments.
It is not therefore at all astonishing that hundreds of criminal reaches state assemblies and the Parliament of India. Supreme Court or Election commission does not have enough tools in their hand to prevent entry of criminals in the Hall of Fame where rules are supposed to be framed to stop and eliminate crime from the society. It appears more ridiculous when politicians blame judiciary for slow delivery of justice. But it is also a undeniable fact that mutual blame game is an easy toll to befool the general masses.
It will not be an exaggeration if one say that there are criminals sitting in each government department and such persons get not only weightage and importance in the department but also promotion and key posting and get continuous patronage from their political stalwarts.All these promotes culture of crime and crime only.
Innocents are in general afraid of the system and hence keep miles away from poice and court.They think it wise to pay bribe to court or police person so that they do not take cognizance of injustice done to him .This is the greatest tragedy which we all face in our life.

Congress Party failed to stop terrorism

Whenever any journalist tell Congress Party that during their last five years tenure terrorism grew unabated, spokesman or some MP or some other party leaders plead that it is Congress Party which sacrificed its leaders like Indira Gandhi Rajiv Gandhi and Sanjay Gandhi.

I feel it is the weakest system during congress party rule that terrorist could even target and assassinate person holding highest and most vulnerable post of the country. As such congress party should not feel proud of killing of Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi ,rather feel ashamed that even the PM was not safe during the regime of congress party.It is bitter truth that on both occasions there were security lapses which causes the death of person like Indira and Rajiv Gandhi when they were hold the post of Prime Minister of our country.

Second excuse given by congress party or other non-BJP member is that during NDA rule even Parliament was attacked.

I would like to say them that at least NDA framed toughest rule and attempted to catch them and take severest action under POTA. But UPA not only allowed terrorist to flourish, but also removed the terrifying act like POTA from the rule book. For entire tenure their leaders went on telling that existing laws are adequate to catch and punish terrorists and prevent terrorism. But on the contrary, number of terror attacks grew and the most severe attack occurred during November 2008 in Mumbai.

Unfortunately even Mumbai attack has been dealt very casually and shown entire dependence for action on America. At least Congress leaders should take good lesson from America that they are still using Drone missile to target terrorist hiding in Pakistan and to finish those terrorist for ever. It is shameful that we have been simply trying to have dialogue for last two decades even after burning our fingers several times.

Second question which usually comes about against Congress Party is non hanging of Afzal Guru inspite of orders of Apex court.

Congress leaders plead in defense that during NDA rule the then BJP leaders released a hard core terrorist and carried him to Kandhar.

I would like to say here that NDA government under the leadership of Atal Vihari Vajpayee wanted to save the lives of 300 plus passengers hijacked by terrorists and confined them in the plane for more than three days. Prolonged discussion took place at that time with all person concerned before taking final decision on release of hard core terrorist and taking him on plane to Kandhar.

I am unable to understand by keeping the orders for hanging of Afzal Guru of Apex Court, what purpose Congress party is going to serve and whose lives are being saved by keeping the hanging order in abeyance for such a long period.

And if Congress party is not desirous to execute the order of Apex court why they are frequently putting pressure on Pakistan to handover specified hard core 20 terrorists to India. When one Kasab has become headache for Congress Party why do they need 20 others? Why do they want to spend crores of rupees in processing of charge sheet and then proving the same in the court of law and lastly discard the order as per whims and fancies?

Lastly I would like to ask Congress leaders why did they remain silent spectator of terror attacks for their entire tenure and why did they felt the need of special act in their eleventh hour of tenure to deal with terrorism.
Secondly why are they unable to stop terrorism or extremism which is available in almost states? Perhaps Congress party leaders have left the duty of handling state level or national level terrorism to state government just like they have assigned the duty of handling of International terrorism to America.
It is due to sincere work performed by some police person that person like Kasab was arrested and India could at least build diplomatic pressure on Pakistan , otherwise Mumbai attack could have been ignore like many other terror attacks of the past. It is therefore undeniable that Police person like that of ATS sacrificed their life on the altar of terrorism and not Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi. Congress person should hence say that their top leaders became “Victim” of their negligence, indifference weak system and weak policy towards terrorism.

Congress party as such need not teach lesson to patriotic BJP people and introspect why India is made soft target, and how America could stop recurrence of terror attack Voters cannot excuse any political party just because they blame each other for each national loss occur in the country and then allow them to sleep in deep slumber.

Ammerica and India

Difference between America and India

At the outset I would like to say that Americans are loyal and patriot for their country. They gladly accept failure and reality of voters. They know how to respect the views of general mass and majority of people. Cairo, the defeated candidate in USA Presidential polls immediately after declaration of result congratulated Mr. Obama and promised him of full and absolute support. He praised Obama and his qualities and clearly told He will work with Obama in the development and for the safety and security and the respect for the country. We seldom hear any controversy as we come across controversies associated with Indian leaders. They more often than not create new example of Hall of
Defame.

Our MP is caught in murders, rape, kidnapping cases, our MPs accept cash for raising questions in Parliament and our ministers change party for the sake of power. Criminals of the country can become MP and MLA in our country and they are called from jail to cast vote and so on. MPs in our country are involved in Stamp Scam, Stock scam, Chara Ghotala, Cement scam, Passport scam; and what not. Our MP’s threaten good officers of dire consequences if they fail to oblige them (MINISTERS , MPs and MLA’s)and even petty political worker of the ruling party.

The greatest and the most painful is that in our country police officers, administrative officers, judges, editors ,writers ,businessmen all are afraid of politicians because they have the power to make or mar the career of any person , officer or businessman. Flattery and sycophancy are the main quality which an officer must possess to survive in the system with promotion, pseudo dignity, and respect. It is visible to all that honest and quality officers like Kiran Bedi are tortured and sidelined in our country.

There is heaven and hell difference between the approaches of citizens of two countries. Mere changing of constitution or changing of the system is not going to bring reformation in the hearts and culture of the resident of India. Even if there are two parties we cannot achieve substantial improvement, of course it will be better. We have seen the fate in Rajasthan, MP, and Chatishgarh where there is almost two party systems. It is true the position of J & K state is not good and such situation in Parliament may prove disastrous. But in our country everything is possible by power of WWW (WINE, WEALTH AND WOMAN). People are managed, parties are managed, leaders are managed and officers are managed just by money and power and if not possible by money, then by muscles and finally by killing.

Only quality education and quick & honest judicial system can help us to come out of malady. Political parties formed of illiterates, criminals and corrupt person cannot visualize good systems and procedure and neither do they like such sermons to be preached from others. Who is going to bell the cat then is the million dollar question.
