Enemies of the Nation


RSS and Muslim League were two sides of the same coin. Both were part of the British policy of divide and rule. Hence both were British agents.
  India ia a country of great diversity, having so many religions, castes, races, languages, cultures, etc. Hence the only way we can remain united and prosper is to be secular and give equal respect to all communities. Organizations like RSS, Muslim League and other communal bodies are enemies of the nation

'Qaid-e-Azam' Jinnah


Jinnah is called 'Qaid-e-Azam', ( leader of the People) by Pakistanis, who regard him as a hero.
But what is the reality ?

It was Jinnah who relentlessly advocated the bogus two nation theory (that Hindus and Muslims are two separate nations) and the mischievous British policy of divide and rule which resulted in Partition of India in 1947 with all its horrors. (Please read Saadat Hasan Manto's stories about Partition in this connection).

It is estimated that as a result of Partition 5 lac Hindus and Muslims were killed and millions uprooted and driven out of their native places. Was he ever distressed by the terrible unhappiness which was caused as a direct result of his actions ? Was his sleep disturbed by the thousands of people killed in Calcutta and elsewhere as a result of his call for ' Direct Action ' in August1946 ? Not at all. All that he wanted was to satisfy his ambition to become Qaid-e-Azam and head of the fake, artificial country called Pakistan ( see my article ' The Truth about Pakistan ' online and on my blog justicekatju.blogspot.in ), which was the goal of the British whose loyal stooge he was, and the sole aim of creating which was to keep Hindus and Muslims fighting with each other.

 Pakistan was really created by the British, but they got the loyal service of those two rascals, Gandhi and Jinnah. The tragedy is that these two rogues are still hero worshipped in India and Pakistan, when they should have been condemned. Does this not prove what I have been saying for long, that 90% Indians ( in whom I include Pakistanis.also, since Pakistan is no country but is really part of India, and will one day revert to India ). are fools ?

Gandhi---A British Agent


This post is bound to draw a lot of flak at me, but that does not matter as I am not a popularity seeker  I have often said things knowing that initially that will make me very unpopular, and I will be vilified and denounced by many. Nevertheless I say such things.as I believe they must be said in my country's interest.
I submit that Gandhi was objectively a British agent who did great harm to India.

 These are my reasons for saying this :

1. India has tremendous diversity, so many religions, castes, races, languages, etc ( see my article ' What is India ?' ). Realizing this the British policy was of divide and rule ( see online ' History in the Service of Imperialism ' , which is a speech delivered by Prof. B.N. Pande in the Rajya Sabha ).

 By constantly injecting religion into politics continuously for several decades, Gandhi furthered the British policy of divide and rule.

 If we read Gandhi's public speeches and writings ( e.g. in his newspapers 'Young India', ' Harijan ', etc ) we find that ever since Gandhi came to India from South Africa in 1915 or so till his death in 1948, in almost every speech or article he would emphasize Hindu religious ideas e.g. Ramrajya, Go Raksha ( cow protection ), brahmacharya ( celibacy ), varnashram dharma ( caste system ), etc ( see Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi ).

 Thus Gandhi wrote in ' Young India ' on 10.6.1921 " I am a Sanatani Hindu. I believe in the varnashram dharma. I believe in protection of the cow ". In his public meetings the Hindu bhajan ' Raghupati Raghav Raja Ram ' would be loudly sung.

 Now Indians are a religious people, and they were even more religious in the first half of the 20th century. A sadhu or swamiji may preach such ideas to his followers in his ashram, but when they are preached day in and day out by a political leader, what effect will these speeches and writings have on an orthodox Muslim mind ? It would surely drive him towards a Muslim organization like the Muslim League, and so it did. Was this not serving the British policy of divide and rule ? By constantly injecting religion into politics for several decades, was Gandhi not objectively acting as a British agent ?

2. In India a revolutionary movement against British rule had started in the early 20th century under the Anushilan Samiti, Jugantar, and revolutionaries like Surya Sen, Ramprasad Bismil ( who wrote the song ' Sarfaroshi ki tamanna ab hamare dil mein hai ), Chandrashekhar Azad, Ashfaqulla, Bhagat Singh, Rajguru, etc ( who were all hanged by the British ). Gandhi successfully diverted  the freedom struggle from this revolutionary direction to a harmless nonsensical channel called Satyagrah. This also served British interests.

3. Gandhi's economic ideas were thoroughly reactionary. He advocated self sufficient village communities, though everybody knows that these communities were totally casteist and in the grip of landlords and money lenders..Gandhi was against industrialization, and preached handspinning by charkha and other such reactionary nonsense. Similarly, his ' trusteeship ' theory was all nonsense, and an act of deceiving the people

 Some people praise Gandhi's bravery in going to Noakhali, etc to douse the communal violence at the time of Partition. But the question is why did he help setting the house on fire in the first place by preaching religious ideas in public political meetings for several decades, which were bound to divide the Indian people on religious lines? First you set the house on fire, and then you do the drama of trying to douse the flames.

The truth about Partition

I have today read Ayesha Jalal's book 'The Sole Spokesman'. In my opinion it is superficial and has made no difference to my view that it was the British who were responsible for the Partition of India, with Jinnah as their main agent ( though ultimately the Congress Party also acquiesed).The same Jinnah who was secular and the ' Ambassador of Hindu-Muslim Unity' in the 1920s later became the main protagonist of the fraudulent two nation theory in the 1930s. Obviously he did this to satisfy his ambition to become the 'Quaid-e-Azam', regardless of the suffering his actions caused to both Hindus and Muslims. His call for Direct Action Day resulted in the terrible Calcutta killings in 1946. And, of course, the Partition resulted in the deaths of 500,000 people, Hindu and Muslim, and the uprooting of millions from their native places. Did this cause any grief to Jinnah ? Not at all. As long his ambition was satisfied he was not bothered about the horrible miseries he had caused.
If you read Jinnah's speeches and his letters ( they have all been published) you will see that from the 1930s onwards he relentlessly preached the 2 nation theory, that Hindus and Muslims are two separate nations, and therefore cannot co-exist together. This was of course humbug.
If you wish to really understand the causes of Partition you must go further back in history. Upto 1857 there was no communal problem. Hindus and Muslims lived in harmony, and with great regard for one another. Hindus used to join in Eid celebrations, and Muslims in Holi and Diwali. The Muslim rulers like the Mughals ( though there is a controversy about Aurangzeb), the Nawabs of Avadh and Murshidabad, Tipu Sultan, etc were thoroughly secular. If you read Ghalib's letters to his Hindu friends like Hargopal Tofta, Munshi Shivnarain Aram, etc you will find how much affection there was between Hindus and Muslims upto 1857.
I may give some examples. Once Holi and Muharram fell coincidentally on the same day on the same day. The Nawab of Avadh, Wajid Ali Shah was a Shia. After taking out the tazia and burying it in the karbala in Lucknow, he enquired why Holi was not being celebrated. He was told that since Holi was a festival of joy, while Muharram was an occasion of sorrow, Hindus had decided not to celebrate Holi that year out of respect for the sentiments of their Muslim brethren. On hearing this the Nawab declared that since Hindus had respected the sentiments of their Muslim brethren, it was the duty of Muslims also to respect the sentiments of their Hindu brethren. He then announced that Holi would be celebrated the same day throughout Avadh, and he himself was the first to play Holi, although it was also Muharram day.
I may give another example. I had once gone to Shringeri in the state of Karnataka. That is the peeth or centre of the southern Shankaracharya ( the adi, or original, Shankaracharya had established 4 peeths for Hindus in the north, west, south, and east). The present Shankaracharya, Bharati Teerth, showed me 30 letters sent by Tipu Sultan with monetary grants to the then Shankaracharya. In one of these letters Tipu Sultan says that it is because of the blessings of the great saint Shankaracharya that his kingdom has prospered, there are good rains, people are happy, etc. Just next to the palace of Tipu Sultan still exists a huge, old Shiva temple.
I can give dozens more of such examples to show that there was no communal problem till 1857. There were no communal riots before that year.
In 1857 the Mutiny broke out, in which Hindus and Muslims jointly fought against the British. After crushing it the British decided that the only way to control India was divide and rule. So directives were sent from London to the British Government in India that all efforts should be made to make Hindus and Muslims fight with each other. You can see details of these directives in B.N.Pandey's speech 'History in the Service of Imperialism' online. The speech was delivered by Prof. Pandey in the Indian Rajya Sabha ( Upper House of Parliament).
All communal riots, artificially engineered by the British authorities began after 1857. The British Collector would secretly call the Hindu Pandit, give him some money, and tell him to start speaking against Muslims, and similarly he would call the Muslim Maulana, give him money, and tell him to start speaking against Hindus. Music was deliberately played by agent provocateurs before mosques at prayer times to provoke Muslims. Cows were killed and thrown in front of Hindu temples by such people to provoke Hindus.
This poison was systematically injected into our society year after year and decade after decade after 1857. The Minto Morley 'Reforms' of 1909 introduced separate electorates for Hindus and Muslims to divide the communities. Every devilish step was taken by the scheming Britishers to sow the seeds of discord between us.
Obviously for this the British had to have local agents, and they chose Jinnah as their main one as he was the most efficient ( though there were others too, including some in the Congress Party).
The purpose of the British for dividing was to keep us weak and disunited by making Hindus and Muslims keep fighting each other, and thus be exploited. Partition in 1947 was also for the same purpose, so that we could continue to be exploited even after the British left, and may not become a highly industrialised state and thus rival for western industry.
I am afraid Ayesha Jalal knows nothing of all this, and hence her book is totally superficial.

Gandhiji was deeply distressed by the Partition riots, and he went to Noakhali and other places where Hindus and Muslims had been killed and tried to bring about peace. But did Jinnah ever do that ? Not at all. He remained comfortably throughout this holocaust in his home. Should such a man who caused such misery and grief to millions be respected ?

Some more verses from Muhajirnama of Munawwar Rana :

" Ajab deewanagi thi sonchiye to ranj hota hai

The Plight of Muhajirs

My friend Mr. S.M.A. Kazmi, former Advocate General of U.P. has his sasural in Karachi. He was once returning on the Karachi to Delhi PIA flight when the air hostess came to him and said that the pilot wanted to meet him in the cockpit. 

He was a bit surprised, but nevertheless he went with her to the cockpit. There the pilot and co-pilot welcomed him and offered him some coffee and snacks. They then told him that they were Muhajirs, and wanted to migrate to India, as they were not happy in Pakistan. They had seen from his passport that he was an advocate of Allahabad High Court, and wanted to know the legal formalities enabling them to migrate from Pakistan to India.

Now the interesting thing is that in fact both these young men were born in Pakistan and had lived all their lives in Pakistan. It was their parents who had migrated after Partition in 1947. Yet they were not happy in Pakistan, as muhajirs are often still treated as outsiders in Pakistan.

Many Muslims had migrated from India to Pakistan in 1947 thinking that Muslims could only feel at home in an Islamic state, but later regretted their decision. However , having given up their Indian nationality and acquired Pakistani nationality it was impossible to come back. A few could get a short time (one month or so) visa to India, and that too with many restrictions, e.g. that the visa was restricted to visiting a particular city in India only, that one had to report to the nearest police station once a week, etc

Many old Muslims (for the muhajirs who migrated had become old) came to India and lived with their relatives in Delhi, Lucknow, Allahabad, Kanpur, Bihar, Delhi, Punjab, Madhya Pradesh, etc. When they had to leave they wept bitterly.

The plight of the muhajirs living in Pakistan has been poignantly depicted in the long poem 'Muhajirnama' written by the eminent Urdu poet of India, Munawwar Rana. I am quoting a few couplets (shers) from the poem:

"Muhajir hain magar hum ek duniya chhod aaye hain
Tumhare paas jitna hai utna hum chhod aaye hain

Kai aankhen abhi tak yeh shikayat karti rehti hain
Ki hum behte hue kaajal ka dariya chhod aaye hain

Kahani ka yeh hissa aaj tak sab se chupaya hai
Ki hum mittee ke khatir apna sona chhod aaye hain

Bahut mumkin tha hum ek din yooheen wapas chale jaate
Magar hum neend ke alam mein chalna chhod aaye hain

Wahaan Baba Farid Aaj tak khushboo lutate hain
To kyon Darbar Saheb ko akela chhod aaye hain ?

Yahaan sab kuch mayassar hai yahaan har cheez haasil hai
Sabhi kuch hai magar Punjab aadha chhod aaye hain

Woh mandir ho ki masjid ho ki girja ho ki gurdwara
Jahaan sab saath rehte the woh duniya chhod aaye hain

Kiraye ka yeh kamra yeh ghuzarti zindagi apni
Wahan itna bada naukar ka kamra chhod aaye hain

Mazaa aata tha Urdu ka jahaan ki bhojpuri mein
Woh Chhapra chhod aaye hain woh Ballia chhod aaye hain

Yeh batwaara nahin tha yeh to naasamjhi hamari thi
Dhundal ke liye ghar ka ujaala chhod aaye hain

Baha lai hame hijrat ki aandhi ajnabi ghar mein
Jahaan paida hue the woh thikaana chhod aaye hain

Woh Amroha jahaan par ilm ke chashme ubalte the
Usey bhi hum banakar ek naala chhod aaye hain

Yeh woh qasbe hain jinme aaj tak tehzeeb palti hai
Rudauli, Barabanki, Naanpara chhod aaye hain

Kisi bhi haal mein apne watan ko chhod mat dena
Hamaara haal dekho ghar hum apna chhod aaye hain

Moharram mein hamara Lucknow Iran lagta tha
Madad maula Husainabad rotaa chhod aaye hain

Kahaa karti thi bachpan mein ki hum se dur mat jaana
Magar hum apni ammi ko akela chhod aaye hain

Yahaan to khushbuon ka jhonka tak nahin aata
Wahan hum ek Alam ko mahakta chhod aaye hain

Riyaya the to phir Hakim ka kehna kyon nahin maana ? 
Hakim the to kyon riyaya chhod aaye hain ?

Nai naslen sunengi to yakeen unko na aayega
Ki hum kaisi zameenen aur zamaana chhod aaye hain

Yeh poonchon kitni qabren chhod aaye hain buzurgon ki
Yeh mat poocho zameenen kitni beegha chhod aayen hain

Siyasat ke bune ek jaal mein hum phans gaye aakhir
Muhabbat se banaaya ghar ka naqsha chhod aaye hain

Bataa ai zindagi ab aur kitna saath dena hai
Ki saansen chal raheen hain aur jeena chhod aaye hain

Kisi ke sar par hum ilzaam bhi to dhar naheen sakte
Hum apni zindagi mein khud khala sa chhod aaye hain

Chalo aisa karen mil jul ke rona seekh len hum sab
Ki hum mil jul ke hasna khilkhilaana chhod aaye hain

Koi aane lage to ek chutki khaak mangwa lena
Wahi jisko samajhkar gard-e-sehra chhod aaye hain

To kya takseem hi buniyaad-e-Pakistan thehri thi ?
Hum ek tukde ke khatir mulk saara chhod aaye hain

Bichadte waqt ki woh siskiyaan woh phoot ke rona
Ki jaise machliyon ko hum tadapta chhod aaye hain

Woh hijrat thi ki mayyat thi tamaasha ban gaye the hum
Ghadi rukhsat ki aayi sab ko goonga chhod aaye hain

Nahin maloom tha jannat ki bhi takseem hoti hai
Magar Kashmir tujhko hum adhoora chhod aaye hain

Kai gorey abhi tak dur baithe has rahe honge
Ki do qaumon mein woh saahi ka kaanta chhod aaye hain

Bahut chup chup se rehte hain shikaayat bhi naheen karte
Ki ai khaak-e-watan hum saath tera chhod aaye hain

Gale milti hui nadiyaan gale milte hue mazhab
Allahabad ka kaisa nazaara chhod aaye hain

Kal ek amrood wale se kehna pad gaya humko
Jahaan se aaye hain is phal ki bagiya chhod aaye hain

Woh hairat mein hame takta rahaa kuch der, phir bola
Woh sangam ka ilaqa chut gaya, ki chhod aayen hain ?

Abhi hum sonch mein ghum the ki usse kya kaha jaaye
Hamare aansuon ne raaz uglaa chhod aaye hain

Karachi ka yeh halwa Bambai mein bhi to milta tha
To phir Bambai ko hum sisakta kyon chhod aaye hain ?

Chaman ko ho chuka hai ek arsaa chhod aaye hain

Dua ke phool Panditji jahaan takseem karte the
Gali ke mod par hum woh Shivala chhod aaye hain

Muhalle ke sabhi bachche jahaan miljul ke padhte the
Na jane kis liye woh paathshala chhod aaye hain

Usi mein bhai Jumman Ram ka kirdaar karte the
Abhi tak yaad hai jo Ramlila chhod aaye hain

Jahaan Akbar ne rishta karke buniyaad-e-wafa rakkhi
Wafadaron ka woh sachcha ilaqa chhod aaye hain

Agar hijrat karni thi to hum arab hi jaate
Zara sa itr lekar mushk-e-naafa chhod aaye hain

Himalay se nikalti har nadi aawaz deti hai
Miyan ao, wuzu karlo, yeh jumla chhod aaye hain

Janaab-e-Mir ka diwan to hum saath le aaye
Magar hum Mir ke maathe ka kashka chhod aaye hain

Woh khudgharzi ka jazbaa aaj tak humko rulaata hai
Ki hum beta to le aaye, bhatija chhod aaye hain

Khuda jaane yeh hijrat thi ki hijrat ka tamaasha tha
Ujaale ki tamanna mein ujaala chhod aaye hain

Hansee aati hai apni hi adakaari pe khud humko
Bane phirte hain Yusuf Zuleikha chhod aaye hain

Basi thi jismen khushboo meri ammi ki jawani ki
Woh chadar chhod aaye hain, woh takiya chhod aaye hain

Woh khaprailon pe phaili har taraf angoor ki belen
Unhi belon se hum bachpan ko lipta chhod aaye hain

Harey honge abhi tak ped woh saare gulistaan ke
Badan pe jinke hum ek naam likkha chhod aaye hain

Hamen marne se pahle sabko yeh taakeed karni hai
Kisi ko mat bata dena ki kya kya chhod aaye hain"
