Corruption In Bharat / India- Its Study- Its Analysis- Its Removal- Its Replacement By Honesty
Corruption In Bharat / India- Its Study- Its Analysis- Its Removal- Its Replacement By Honesty-Honesty Continuance-Controlling Statutes-Strict & Serious Judiciary-Committed People – By Professional Engineer Suraj Singh
Prior to starting deliberations about the intensity of corruption & its widespread spectrum on our country, let us have a Precap on its generation to current level. We inherited a good nation from the times of Chanakya. It was an educational based society with high level of morales & preservation of our culture. Honesty prevailed to considerable extent. Mughals invaded & corrupted our kings. Based on East India Company Royal Charter signed in 1600 mandating the company do business & rule the land so named as India, Britons spread over us & corrupted by Divide & Rule policy all of us. Our innocent forefathers could not understand the designs of these foreign invaders. These invaders spoiled our culture & living style. Mughals tried their best to change our faith. Britons looted us in all respects & did not allow us education.
After independence, PM Nehru did not bother about how to control corruption when somebody informed him that it existed. Officials started accepting bribes. P M Nehru commented Desh Ka Peisa Desh Men Hai.(Nation money is in Nation). This reference is a very common phrase.
Sadly, Corruption has so intensified now that one cannot name it as Corruption. It is no more a disease but a way of life of Bharat/India. Unfortunately, none of our Governments & its leaders have done anything to eliminate this way of life due to many reasons. The leaders are more inclined toward question of religions, caste, throwing dirt on each others, trying to hide the problems & actually doing nothing. It is also one kind of corruption to run away from public cause. Constitution has been so utilized that corruption cannot be eliminated. An accused is not a criminal until proved. But who wants to prove?
We have three Prime Level of Governance:
Legislature
Executive
& To check the Works by these Organs, Judiciary.
Legislature can be joined by any level of persons as Representatives. Honest person cannot enter these law making houses. Bharat has seen all Representatives from simple to complicated who could not do anything concrete to rectify the corrupt way of life. Huge money is involved during elections to reach these Constitutional Offices. A poor man cannot reach to these bodies on his own except that a party supports the person.
Executive is big that it is out of the reach of a common person.
Judiciary has so much pending job that it has been unable to decide on case in years.

Dear Sir,
I have been reading your mails all these years and was always impressed by the content and presentations. Even this blog covers almost all the issues of great national importance. But I would like to add an issue of 'Corruption' at the top. Because none of the issues can be tackled fully and effectively without eradicating this monster. It is growing in size and shape day by day. Any public body you name and any job you want to get done, you can't get it done in time without underhand practice. I will end it here only but the issue is very big. Pl give a thought
Thanks and Regards
B.S.Gadodia
Chartered Engineer "
I am happy that all people in Bharat/India are interested to get rid of this way of life. There can be a possibility to treat illness but to change way of life is very difficult. It is a consideration of alignment of the conscience & the mind to certain set direction. This means it should be a resolution in the form of Decorruption Yoga. Then how to resolve it? It shall be a continuous process.
The President to a watch man, every body knows about the Corruption, but unfortunately, even after remaining in power for years, our leaders did nothing rather contributed to augment its levels. Even bribing was done to raise question in the parliament. MPs have emigrated people by such corruption. Many scams have been exposed. Alas! That we are cold blood country & keep on absorbing all ill acts. Every person says that I cannot do anything. What can I do?. It is for all. Yes, it is right. Everybody suffers. They want to suffer continuously for centuries.
Now we have a rise to the occasion to contemplate how to come out of this evil. Some gentleman commented about my wording that I am only writing. According to him, simplicity is the best solution. According to him Akbar ruled in the right direction. My dear fellow citizens, since this is the age of electronic media & internet, it is much easier to communicate with the common people of the world. I as a common person do not have capacity to write to use print media or the news media & until I reach to some constitution office, no journalist or reporter shall accept my views to be communicated to the masses. Positive point is majority of our youth are capable to read & write English. This is the only reason, I decided to use this www.hindtoday.com an august electronic forum of Bharat/India to communicate to the general public & share with them my view. A question was also raised that some down to earth honest persons are the need of the hour. Do we have such people? The answer is positive, we do. We have not only one person but also thousands of persons who are honest & shall remain honest even if given an opportunity. Forget Akbar or others who could not do any good fore us. What good Akbar did for the nation? He did not allow a poor girl to marry with his prince son. It is good. Why praise such past foreign Kings.
Moreover, we have a large potential of educated pools from all disciplines & branches of life who can very successfully replace these inefficient politicians in coming future. The future of Bharat/India shall be in those clean hands of youth who can change the face & the structure of this nation. I call all honest & hardworking citizens of Bharat to Join this platform to decide on what should be done for the nation to get these past useless politicians out & pass the control on the hardworking honest workers. I hope that those kids of the motherland shall definitely join this movement & then nation may move into progressive direction.
Honest people shall clean the top level corruption existing within the Legislatures. Timely bill shall be introduced making alterations on the statutes for the punishment & time limit of adjudication of criminal & civil cases. A maximum limit shall be defined to decide a case so that the police & the courts act as fast as possible. Crime rate shall come down when the sentences start getting awarded. All inefficient & the corrupt official & judges shall have to go out of the jobs without any delay. Legislators of any rank those rejected during the term, shall have to resign the seat immediately.
A constant vigil by the relevant departments shall be kept on the occurrence of corruption. Within the parliament committees shall be inducted experts & ex officio members from different walks of life to have a check on the proceedings. All proceedings of the parliament & the ministries shall be subject to scrutiny by the experts. Definition of the privilege shall be confined to certain requirement only. The top organization once controlled & refined to clean form, shall send its effect to the middle & low level governance who automatically can be forced to adopt to the new way of clean life. Panel code & other Acts involving criminal punishment shall be amended. The punishment shall be executed in open so that others should learn a lesson. Power of the states to withdraw the criminal cases & the President on the mercy decisions shall be curtailed.
All Legislators, Judges & the Executive senior employees shall have to declare their properties bi annually to the public & the union.
Any body caught red handed shall be punished in a maximum of 3 months duration. Maximum duration of criminal punishment shall be 6 months. Police failure to reach the criminals shall be punished accordingly. Immediate suspension & dismissal in 3 months after action starts.
Those who are indulged in financial crimes against the nation at top level shall be granted death penalty. No person of the state shall be granted any immunity. All laws within ambit of the 'law & order' shall be revised to reduce the decision period limit. Rape shall come under the purview of death penalty. Life imprisonment for bribing. All professionals who do professional crimes shall be susceptible for life imprisonment.
Punishment shall be higher for the educated class. Punishment shall be lower for the uneducated class. Similarly, all laws shall be revised. We know that 70 % of the cases belong to a category where state is involved. Recommendation from the government for the Judicial appointments shall not be required. The powers of the president to supervise the Parliament shall be augmented.
Similarly, stern actions shall be regulated for the national departments, state departments, local bodies & municipalities as well as gram panchayats. At this stage, it is not virtually feasible to give in details about the possible action that could be resorted to as extensive study as well as analysis are required to reach some decisions.
But most significant solution lies in the fact that until the people intend to remove corruption from their lives, it cannot be removed. People have to be ready to sacrifice their unfair means earnings. Since corruption has erupted & developed collective efforts, it shall move out only by collective efforts. This exercise could be done only by a Government of the people, I repeat people & not the political parties is in full power making it enable to draw such constitutional solutions.
Solutions shall be worked out to be applied to all sectors that have been dipped in corruption water. All of us have to be ready to make certainly required changes on the laws & their implementation forcefully. Do not worry thousands of Gandhis & Subhas & Godse shall come out to serve this nation. Only a handful of people believe in corruption while the remaining are subject to compulsions. They are awaiting a chance. I evaluate a period of 5 years to completely remove the way of life in Corruption subject to the condition the required power is available in the hands of the Government/State.

Subject: Chicago Protest with great success
To: sevamkuru2@gmail.com
*Please FORWARD it all our friends concerned about Hindu Temples *
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (visit www.savetemples.org , then select
"Chicago-press releases for the original copies)

*A massive awareness campaign by over 400 people was held to protect
Hindu Temples in India.*
Rosemont, IL- May 6, 2007 – A massive protest campaign organized by
Save Temples forum was attended by about 500 Concerned people during
the visit of Mr. Y S Rajasekhar Reddy, Chief Minister of the South
Indian State of Andhra Pradesh. Mr. Reddy was at the Donald Stephens
Convention Center to attend a Reception hosted by organizations TANA
and ATA. People including many doctors, IT professionals, businessmen
were protesting the policies of Mr. Reddy's Government which have been
highly detrimental to the Hindu institutions including temples.
The protest was held from 3:00 PM till 6:30 PM which included men, women and
children of different nationalities from all around the country. Most
of the concerned participants attended in response to the fliers and
advertisements placed in various temples and various Indo-American
newspapers. Many participants responded to the continuous bad news
such as temple land scams, cancellation of Sri Rama Navami as Hindu
Holiday and miuse of temple funds., Frustrated youth spontaneously
arrange the protest and it was so overwhelming that it was beyond
their expectations. Members of several organizations such as ISKCON,
Christians against proselytism, Indian American intellectual forum,
Vishwa Hindu Parishad also joined the protest.
One of the protesters, Mr. Durga Prasad from Arizona, was on Fast
without taking even water starting on Friday night till the protest
was concluded. He provided tremendous inspiration to the fellow
protesters.
The protesters demanded repealing the Hindu Endowments Act, religious
freedom for Hindus in practicing Hindu religion and management of
Hindu institutions. The participants raised slogans such as 'Repeal
Hindu Endowments Act', 'Hands off..... temples', '1-2-3.... keep
temples free', *Eadukondalavada Venkataramana Govinda Govinda* etc.
and sang devotional hymns.
*Representatives Meet the Chief Minister *
V. V. Prakasa Rao and Prasad Yalamanchi have been in constant contact with
Dr. Gavva Chandra Reddy, the president of ATA and Dr. Bandla Hanumaiah, the
president of TANA. They have been very cooperative with our request to meet
the Chief Minister and also expressed their concern for the welfare of the
Temples. At the request of Dr. Gavvaa, V. V. Prakasa Rao and Prasad
Yelamanchi met with Hon. Chief Minister, Dr. Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy in
Hyatt Hotel in Chicago. They expressed concerns of all Hindus regarding the
plight of the temples in Andhra Pradesh by saying that thousands of acres of
Temple lands have been sold, Temples' revenues have been diverted to
non-Hindu causes, numerous Temples have been demolished and hundreds of
Temple lands have been allowed to be encroached. They mentioned that the
Endowment Act should be repealed. Mr. Reddy mentioned about the recent
amendment to the Endowment Act giving autonomy to about 30,000 temples with
less than Rs 50,000 annual income and giving Rs 2500 for these Temples to
support Dhup Deepa Naivedyam program; release of Shirdi Sai Baba temples to
independent management trustees; and legislation to ban missionary
activities near major temples. When the representatives mentioned that
although the Hindu community was happy to read the news about these
developments, they again requested the repeal of the Endowment Act. They
mentioned that Hindu Temples should enjoy the same freedom and independence
as other two major religions. Then they submitted a "Memorandum of Concerns
to Hon. Y S Rajasekhara Reddy, Chief Minister, Andhra Pradesh" Mr. Reddy
scanned through the memorandum, smiled and said, "Anything is possible," and
that he would consider the demands.
*Plan to disrupt the Peaceful Protest was foiled in Chicago*
On May 6, 2007 nearly 500 people were peacefully protesting in Chicago
expressing their concern for the plight of Hindu Temples in Andhra Pradesh
during Honorable Chief Minister's visit to USA. A group of five people came
into the middle of demonstration and started asking why we were doing the
protest. One of the Protesters gave the booklet containing the information.
Protesters took the booklets when they did not want. Then one gentleman,
later identified as Dr. Jayachand Pallekonda went behind Mr Praveen Gandhi
and started choking his throat with his fingers. Mr Gandhi was not even able
to shout as his throat was being pressed very hard. Nearby police saw the
incident immediately, rushed behind Dr Pallekonda pulled his hands off Mr
Gandhi and handcuffed him. Then took away from the Protest area and filed a
case. Hearing is set for May 23, 2007 in Rosemont, Il. Mr. Gandhi was taken
to the emergency hospital the next day due to the swollen glands. Dr.
Pallekonda is seen on the left side of the picture with black outfit. Dr.
Jayachand Pallekonda is President of Federation of Indian American Christian
Organization of North America, Washington, DC. His website link:

After the protest, many participants gathered in a conference hall at a
nearby Hotel to share their experiences and plan future action. The speakers
congratulated the participants and urged everyone to carry on the fight for
Hindu Civil Rights.

*Memorandum of Concerns submitted to *
*Hon. Y S Rajasekhara Reddy, Chief Minister, Andhra Pradesh*
Hon. Y S Rajesekhara Reddy
The Chief Minister
Government of Andhra Pradesh
Hyderabad, India
Hon. Y S Rajasekhara Reddy garu:
We the signatories of this memorandum, would like to request you and your
Government to treat Hindu religion, Hindu Culture, Hindu Heritage and Hindu
way of life with freedom from government control and interference. You are
aware that you do not interfere with Muslim religion activities or trying to
take control of their properties and similarly with others.
Over the centuries, Hindu Temple builders donated large sums of money,
jewelry, thousands of acres of land and movable properties to their Temples,
so that the Temples have sufficient resources to provide "dhupa, deepa and
naivedyam" to the presiding deities and provide required worship services to
the devotees. Day to day, devotees have been contributing donations and
gifts for the utilization of Temple services and devotees needs. Hindu
Temple lands, monies and movable properties, thus belong to the Temples
which are required to be managed by Hindus / Trusts.
Even in the dreams, the donors did not vision and do not vision, that their
sacrifices and generosity will be abused, misused, and usurped by the
Government with the passage of Hindu religious and Charitable Endowment Act
in 1987. Since the passage, thousands of acres of Temple lands have been
sold, crores of Hindu Temple monies has been used for non-Hindu Temple and
non-Hindu activities. Large number of Temples have been neglected from being
renovated. Large percentage of Temple earnings have been forced to be
donated to the state treasury. Thousands of Hindu Temple lands were allowed
to be encroached upon, although 77,000 endowment officials are employed to
protect them. Many archakas were not paid their salaries or have been
underpaid.
1. We request you and your Govt. to be fair, impartial, reasonable and
sensitive to the needs of Hindu Culture, Hindu Heritage and Hindu in
particular to the Hindu Temples. The wishes and desires of the Hindus in
protecting the Hindu Temples should be respected, similar to that of
Christians and Moslems. We are not asking any special favors from the
government. We are requesting your office earnestly, not to discriminate
against Hindus and Hindu Temples. We request you, to protect the Hindu
institutions with the same zeal and passion, which you have been showing for
other major religions.
We the people of Indian origin, especially those hailing from Andhra
Pradesh, are delighted that you are with us in the US associating yourself
with an important event of the Telugu -speaking people residents in the USA.
All of us are wishing that every government in the Union of India works for
the rapid economic, cultural and spiritual development of the country so
that in the comity of nations, Bharat occupies a place that reflects its
civilization, its culture, greater heritage and its prosperity in the past.
India has a great record of striving to bring harmony and peace among
different nations of the world.
2. To succeed to be a great, prosperous, powerful, intellectual and
spiritual power, it is essential that within the country there is perfect
understanding and amity between people speaking different languages,
following different faiths and beliefs. All of our people must have sense of
one nation-hood and a common purpose and a common goal. We are sure that
your government is working towards this objective.
3. We, however, have been hearing from news-paper reports and in the
electronic and print media that different treatments are meted out by the
avowedly secular governments to people of different faiths, especially it
appears that Hindu places of worship are targeted. India's culture,
civilization and literature and way of life had, for millennia, revolved
around its places of worship, the various temples, Mutts and Ashramas.
4. We notice that while the secular governments are scrupulously keeping off
from the affairs regarding the maintenance and management of places of
worship of Christians and Muslims, Parsis and others; in certain states,
notably in Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala and recently in
Maharashtra the state governments are managing the places of worship
belonging only to Hindus through the governments' Hindu Religious Endowment
Boards and Revenue Departments. We know that this originated from the Acts
of British government in the 1930s. Such Acts have been, it appears, passed
down to the successor governments like that in Andhra Pradesh. We believe
that the so called secular government managing the finances, places of
worship, the properties and their revenues of the Hindu places of worship
alone is not a secular function. In fact it constitutes an adverse action
and absolute discrimination against Hindus compared to the others like
Muslims or Christians. Such a policy is un-constitutional.
5. What we are particularly concerned is what we hear and read about the
properties of the temples, agricultural as well as urban being encroached
upon, alienated in favor of institutions of other religions as well as
government for distribution to all sorts of people for a variety of
purposes. This act of alienation of the properties of the places of worship
of Hindus, while not similarly treating the properties of places of worships
of other religions, is a gross discrimination in regard to Hindus. We
believe that it is due to mismanagement on the part of certain government
quarters. We urge that your government should put an end to this adverse
discrimination.
6. We are in possession of long lists of the properties of different temples
encroached upon or alienated or in some manner not yielding any revenue to
the temples. We suggest that informed people in your State to supply those
lists to you and unto your government for immediate action.
7. We welcome your Government's recent Bill to amend the Hindu Religious
Endowments and Charities Act (1930, 1987). We understand, from news papers
that this Bill was to be passed in the session of the Assembly ending on 9th
April 2007. But, unexpectedly, this was decided to be referred to a Select
Committee. It is regrettably learnt that no Select Committee has been
constituted before the Assembly was prorogued.
8. We have gone through the gazette notification of the Bill to amend the
Endowments Act, and also read the contents. Though we are not in a position
to completely scrutinize and comprehensively comment on them, we have
received some comments from other concerned people. One such comment is
attached to this Memorandum.
9. Generally the amendment suggested in the Bill would mitigate some if not
all the omissions and commissions in the government's management of the
places of worship of Hindus. There appears to be a sinister motive behind
the postponement of the passage of the Bill. The Bill has for example a very
salutary provision, which prohibits the alienation of Temple lands in both
Urban and Rural areas. Some people seem to be having their eyes on the urban
properties so that these could be acquired by government and distributed as
sites for housing or for other purposes. This is highly reprehensible and un
acceptable.
10. As the passage of the Bill might take quite some time, we urge that an
Ordinance be passed in this regard. It should be done because the
Legislature is not in session. When the Legislature meets, the Select
Committee to be constituted can do its action and the Ordinance be replaced
by a properly and duly passed Bill.
11. One thing of utmost concern to every right –thinking and true Indian is
the aggressive propagation of a non-Hindu Christian faith, in and around
Hindu places of worship. We also refer to hospitals where Nurses belonging
to Christian faith are having a free run in brain -washing Hindu patients to
change their faith with the promise that if they do so, Jesus Christ will
heal them. We urge that this type of practice on the part of a section of
Nurses in government hospitals should be made a criminal offence and must be
stopped immediately.
12. Another urgent matter of concern is the diversion of funds of the
temples especially, of the quite rich and famous Tirumala Thirupathi
Devastanam for purposes not connected with Hindu dharma such as Jala Yagnam,
sports events and various Government schemes. We hope that this news was
untrue but we request you to kindly ensure that your government does not
spend any money from the tax revenues in favor of some religion(s) and not
others.
13. We also learn from news paper reports that assured the Christian clergy
in your State that just as the Hajj pilgrimage of Muslims is being
subsidized by the Central government, your government would subsidize the
pilgrimage of Christians of your state to Bethlehem / Jerusalem. This is a
singularly un secular act and discriminatory to Hindus. We hope that the
news is wrong but would like you to affirm that the news is wrong and that
the Government of Andhra Pradesh would not spend either the tax monies or
the monies of Hindu temples for the benefit of people of other faiths like
Christianity and Islam.
14. The Seven Hills, famously known through centuries as Saptagiri belong to
Lord Balaji /Venkateshwara by government notifications in the past,
documented in government records and in the belief, trust and conviction of
hundreds of millions of Hindus through- out India and abroad, belong to Lord
Balaji. In your own State, very common name of people is Edukondal Rao/
Kondal Rao, testifying to the popularly accepted ownership of the seven
Hills by Balaji. Just as in the Vatican (Rome), where no other faith is
allowed to be propagated and no other places of are worship are allowed to
be built, government should ensure that there is no propaganda or
propagation and much less conversion activities in the area of the Seven
Hills. This also applies to the other famous temples of Andhra Pradesh. To
cite a few - Narisimha Swami in Simhachalam, Rama & Sita in Bhadrachalam,
Kanakadurga in Vijayawada, Bhimeswram in Vemulavada, Satyanarayanswami in
Annavaram, Shiva in Kalahasti & Srisailam, Nrusimha in Mangalagiri and so
on. The sanctity of all these places as well the properties of these temples
must be secured against alienation and those which are already encroached
upon or illegally taken possession must be restored to the temples.
15. Finally, we would submit that it is a significant responsibility on you
because you are not only the Chief Minister but a very active Christian
Chief Minister and the party you belong is led by Madame Sonia Gandhi who is
a practicing Catholic Christian. The wise say that Caesar's wife must be
above suspicion. Therefore, there is onerous responsibility on you as an
active Christian under the patronage of a very Christian leader of the UPA
and the Congress Party that you do not do anything which adversely daringly
affects Hindus, and their places of worship . We are sure that you would
like to be successful CM and that the monies raised through taxes and
barrowings by the government are not in any way utilized/spent for
promotion, protection and propagation of Christianity. Please note that your
largest constituents are Hindus.
16. There are reports about the Padmavathi Mahila University in Tirupathi
largely funded by the TTD is facilitating the conversion of students to
Christianity, the fact which was confirmed by state CID report. The Vice
Chancellor (VC) of this University is a practicing Christian lady. She is
reported to have removed the pictures of Hindu gods and goddesses and has
been encouraging the display of Biblical sayings and quotes in various
places in the university. Some of the Christian lecturers and staff
prevailed upon students to change faith and such converts are reported to
have been traumatized. The suicide of a girl, Umamaheswari who converted to
Christianity but whose conversion was resented and denounced by her parents
and relatives, is a telling point in this regard. Those responsible for
Uma's death should be brought to justice.
It would be appropriate, if such over zealous evangelicals as the current VC
of Sri Padmavathi University are not posted as VCs in any university,
especially in the TTD inspired and funded educational institutions.
17. Hundreds of groups of missionaries/canvassers of Christian religion and
those converted to that religion are reported to be engaged in the
distribution of literatures derogatory to Hinduism. Huge sums of funds seem
to be coming to them. While the Hindu temples are languishing, hundreds of
new churches are coming up even in purely Hindu localities. The springing up
of disproportionate number of non-Hindu institutions in predominately Hindu
localities is not acceptable. The militant and continuous propaganda over
loud speakers and other means used by the proselytizers and seekers of
converts to Christianity could lead civil strife in the community and would
ultimately lead to communal clashes. Hindus will protect their people from
the being converted and insults to their religion will be countered.
We request that the source of funding for the various missionary activities
should be investigated and any activity which is conducted as a mission, to
market any religion is unethical, non-spiritual and destructive of the local
cultures be prohibited. While one can appreciate a person discarding the
religion in which he was born and embracing another after study of both;
conversion of the poor, illiterate ill –informed, indigent people by
organized groups is certainly unethical and fraudulent. Therefore, there is
need for prohibiting systematic conversion activities by organized
religions.
18. There is also another fraud. While thousands of churches are coming up,
Christian organizations and their leaders such as KP Yohannan and Indian
Missions association are asserting that their population in AP is more than
10%, the successive censes have been showing Christian population as
declining. This fact is confirmed by World Christian Database. Please see
the table below:
*Christian Population in Andhra Pradesh*
*Christian Population in Andhra Pradesh*
*Year*
*1971*
*1981*
*1991*
*2001*

*1.43*
*1.2*
*1.1*
*% of Christian population *
*4.19*
*2.68*
*1.83*
*1.44*
19. It appears that converted dalits are advised not to disclose and
provide for any government record, the fact of their conversion/true
religion so that they continue to avail of the reservations meant for SC
among Hindus. Obviously, converts who became such because of the promise of
non-existence of dalitism and cases in Christianity (as propagated by the
missionaries) are misled by the converters and are led to be untrue to
themselves, first by not declaring the fact of conversion and second to be
deceitful by appropriating for themselves the privilege of reservation meant
for SCs among Hindus. It is said that 80% of the SCs working in government
are in fact, practicing Christians having suppressed the fact of their
conversion and true religion for the government records. There must be an
inquiry in to this racket.
20. We request you again, to introduce a bill to REPEAL of the Hindu
religious and Charitable Act in the legislature at the earliest possible
date. It will be a good decision to correct the grave injustice that the
Hindus are subjected to for many decades. We strongly believe that you have

Games Media plays in India
- HK Correspondent
Pseudo secular Media is the curse of Indian Society.
Media barons who act on behalf Christians, Jehadis and
Communists are in the payroll of these anti national
forces. Most of the Indian media presents fabricated
and distorted news to serve the anti Hindu propaganda.
Several instances clearly indicate the fabricated and
distorted news. Here are some examples:
** News Headlines / Flash News used to says - 20
people of a 'particular community' shot dead in Doda
Kashmir- how many of you know that they were all
Hindus?.
When the recent unrest took place in Vadodara, the
headline flashed as - 'Muslim boy shot to death in
vadodara, unrest deepens'. Please compare the
deliberate psychological game and mind manipulation in
these two reports..
** Ethnic cleansing of Kashmiri Hindus will be
reported as "death of minority". But if it is the
death of a Kashmiri Muslim, Media headlines goes like
this - "Militants begin targeting Kashmiri Muslims"!.
** More than two lakhs Kashmiri Hindus have been
exterminated, yet no media or politicians are aware
about it nor finds time to shed a single tear for
them. When 2000 Gujarati Muslims were died in riots,
Media and Politicians wake up from their self imposed
denial and make huge hue and cry. For them, 2000
Muslim lives are more valuable than 200,000 Hindus!.
** When Muslim riots took place in Gujarat, every
Media wanted to chop off the head of Sangh Parivar
leaders, but when Jihadi Terrorists attacked Akshardam
Temple, Varanasi, New Delhi, Bangalore, Coimbatore,
Marad, & Mumbai, Media and pseudo secularists appealed
for peace and communal harmony!
** Television channel, especially Communist control
NDTV showcase the plight of Muslims in Gujarat every
now and then. But why no single media in India is
concerned about the plight of Kashmiri Hindus?
** Photograph of a Muslim crying in front of the
police with his hands folded is widely circulated
after Gujarat riots. But how many of us saw the
photographs of the burnt bodies of 20 Hindu children
in the Godhra attack?. Media were never interested in
showing any reports or photographs of the Parents /
Widows / Children of the innocent Hindus being killed
by the Islamic terrorists in Godhra, Kashmir, New
Delhi, Bangalore, Kerala, Hyderabad and Coimbatore
etc..
** 30,000 temples were destroyed during the Mughal
regimes and it is not an issue for biased Indian
media, but when Hindus wanted to reconstruct temples
in Ayodhya, Kashi and Mathura, the media twists it is
an attempt to communalize Indian society!
** About the recent Vadodara unrest. 14 temples
blocking the road were demolished, no objection from
any Hindus. One similar Dargah was demolished became a
national problem!. All the prominent medias called for
Narendra Modi to resign following this incident and
became the headlines in all the national Medias.
** Finally, the recent Mumbai blasts. Communist
sponsored English
newspaper THE HINDU was busy in highlighting the
rescue operations carried out by the Muslims and the
number of Muslims attended in blood donation camps
after terrorist attack. But THE HINDU journalist who
reported this news deliberately ignored selfless
services of Hindu Organizations in Mumbai.
It must be that the media take pleasure in spreading
persistent, pervasive lies about Hindus. What else
could explain the credulous acceptance of lies,
half-truths and distortion of news about Hindus and
selfless services of nationalist Hindu organizations?.
The inconsistencies, deceptions, and outright
falsehoods about the reports are obvious. It is
profoundly disturbing to note that the picture that
continues to emerge from the media about Hindus, in
which passive, peace loving, tolerant, nationalist
Hindus come out as aggressive, militant,
fundamentalists, and the violent, non compromising
Muslim and Christian gangs come out as victims.
The hysteria emanating from the journalists is so
persistent that the innocent readers may get a
negative image of Hindus. This psycho-linguistic
programming of the media and deliberate false
reporting is not only patently false but also
encourage Muslim, Christian and Communist terrorists
to continue their deadly, terrorist, and irrational
anti national activities.
Hindus must wake up from complacency, and denial, take
affairs into their own hands and shape their own
destinies. Hindus must unite, reassess themselves,
address the media bias and voice their feelings
forcefully and assertively with the hostile media.
Hindus must tell the media in strong words and actions
that they should not be trifled with.
---------------On Indian media below:---------------
Following is the mirror in which media on sale see
their faces:
a) NDTV: Funded by Gospels of Charity in Spain
supports Communism. Recently it has developed a soft
corner towards Pakistan because Pakistan President
has > allowed only this channel to be aired in
Pakistan .
b) CNN-IBN: 100% Funded by Southern Baptist Church
with its branches in all over the world with HQ in
US. The Church annually allocates 800 Million Dollars

NAV-BHARTH TIMES, STARDUST, FEMINA, VIJAYA TIMES,
VIJAYA KARNATAKA, TIMES NOW (24 hr News Channel) &
many more.

Funding is done by "WORLD CHRISTIAN COUNCIL", and
balance 20% is equally shared by an Englishman and an
Italian.
D) STAR TV: Is run by an Australian, who is supported

E) HINDUSTAN TIMES: Owned by Birla Group, but hands
have changed since Shobana Bhartiya took over.

F) The Hindu: A English Daily, started over 125 years
