ANNA HAZARE’S AUGUST KRANTHI-Much has been written, spoken analyzed but the Nationalism!

ANNA HAZARE’S AUGUST KRANTHI-Much has been written, spoken analyzed but the Nationalism!
It is not just corruption that drove millions of Indians to streets and public parks, panning the National Flag all along, praising Annaji, shouting Anna is India; India is Anna. The majority Hindus till then prowling hurt and anger against the communal UPA was once erupt at that opportune moment. They for once wanted to take this communal UPA to task for its utter anti Hindu policies and programs. There were a number of Muslims and Christians too in d swelling crowds in towns and cities across India, but media chose to ignore in a customary manner with a purpose to pin down Anna at an opportune moment.
Predictably Mr Kejriwal and Ms Kiran Bedi could not withstand the secular pressures and blackmail tactics applied by the Congress Party, as they did in the case of Baba Ramdev at the same venue a couple of months ago. So they gave up Bharath Matha and dumped the flex rolled in to the store yard in the back yard to please the communal Bukhari and to prove a point that they too ‘secular’
Imam Bukhari of Juma Masjid New Delhi had then issued an anti national statement dubbing Anna’s movement as anti-Islamic and hence advised Muslims to keep off from it. Predictably our TV Channels chose to ignore his statement leave alone the unthinkable scenario of he been taken to task for his anti national and communal utterances by our Intellectuals who were by then making a bee line before the TV Studios.
Hence it is but for natural Kejriwal and Kiran Bedi’s could not question Bukhari for his utterances instead they made a diplomatic stopover at his Mosque requesting him to make billions of Indian Muslims to be part of this anti-graft movement as if corruption was affecting only Hindus body and soul not of non-Hindus. He send-off the team by waving the communal flag.
Mr Kejriwal ought to have posed a question before the media, if not on the face of Bukhari. Did Anna gave a call only to Hindus, not to Indian’s? or was corruption then affecting the lives and souls of only Hindus but not non-Hindus? If Muslims had volunteered themselves in numbers would team Anna have prevented them to join?
Anna is creating anarchy he was trying to run a parallel Government? Did he try to convene a new parliament in Ramleela ? No he was only forcing an effective anti graft bill in the same Parliament!
Anna is undermining the Democracy? Did he? Did he ever criticize our constitution or our parliamentary system? No!
Anna is leading a movement on the streets? All Revolutions right from Russian one to French one to till our own freedom movement were fought on streets only! Did we fight from our Bed Rooms or Bathrooms?
Anna –this is a middle class myopia-As if the middle class are not part of this country nor this middle class have any right to vote or share its anguish. It was this middle class from
Mumbai, Kerala, Delhi who voted Mr Manmohan to power. It was this middle class who watch Times Now, NDTV etc it was this middle class which read TOI, The Pioneer etc it was this middle class who chat, tweet, write blogs, post comments etc.
Dr MMSingh also repeated the rhetoric that he and his UPA Govt was impeccable for the reason they were chosen by millions of Indians in 2009 mandate, meaning that till their term expires they have a right to loot the nation and hence no one can question them!
The answer is, 2009 election in particular was not a plebiscite on any single question, but it was a general election. In any General Election we vote to a candidate to-do-good for the nation not harm the nation.
When, these questions posed by the media were so simple to answer why no one made an effort to answer them aptly?
In conclusion it was Hindus fault. We believe in too-much secularism giving an opportunity to Muslims and Christians of this country to manifest their communalism as secularism and victimize Hindus for the fault of just being in majority.
Imam Bukharis, foulmouthed spokes persons like Digvijay Singhs, and Manish Tiwari’s may be euphoric for their vote bank politics, but surely Hindus are being united in a big way to show the exit door to these anti-nationals!
