Bengal Before RSS :: Raam Mandirs and Tradition of Raam Bhakti in Bengal

The pro-establishment Tolly-rated elites have been vocal with acute shrill that Lord Raam is not Bengal's deity; Since Durgapuja is celebrated with great pomp and fervor in today's Bengal, RaamNavanmi, hence, is not a Bengali festival and it is an RSS-BJP conspiracy to import this Raam culture from the dehats of North Indian cow belt. Many of their front line ideologues have cascaded this falsehood everywhere. As if they do not know who He was to invoke Devi Durga untimely in Autumn (Akaal Bodhan), the usual time Bengalis worship the Mother Divine. Then again, why would the intelligentsia toe the politicians’ lines, had they read texts and honored reasons?

The Myth of India's Jobless Growth

Indian economy has experienced a rapid and phenomenal growth between 2011 and 2018, specially in the last four years of this period, some major macro indicators have moved with higher gradient in their curves. The highest ever foreign exchange reserves, one of the strongest internal reserves, sizable growth in FDI, achieving a steady and steep 7+% GDP growth rate and stepping 3 slots from 9th to 6th largest economy of the World - all happening in one political regime is not trivial increment. We all agree to that. But still many analysts, mostly Left and Center leaning ones, have started building a narrative since 2016 that this growth story has detached itself from creation of new jobs which keeps the ground mood of people dull.

Leaving aside the later part of the narrative as political, let us take a deeper dive into the first half, i.e. India's is a jobless growth.

A Factory of Lies vs. ModiSarkar, the Elevator of India

"A lie repeated often enough becomes accepted truth" 

- Nothing else perhaps makes a better nutshell of today’s Great Indian Political Mahabharata, than the above; What has been popularly ascribed to Joseph Goebbels, Vladimir Lenin and many others, has its roots in Mathew 28:11-15, talking about how a rumor led to stealing of Jesus's body.

Congress party under the proprietorship of 'Gandhi' family, crumbing at the face of huge democratic surge behind the rising leadership of its rival Nationalists, seems to have resorted to repeated lies as its primary strategy. We have seen the Trident of orchestrated lies since 2010, that were targeted to puncture three faces of threats from the Nationalist camp. Narendra Modi, Amit Shah and BS Yeddyurappa (Yes! believe it or not). The Trident was meant to decelerate the rise of the Hindu Nationalists in the Deccan, and to stop any possibility of the Gujarati duo from acquiring the national center-stage. While they succeeded in holding off the saffron storm in the Southern front, they succumbed in front of Modi-Shah firepower.

But since 2018,Congress party has soaked itself into the only hope of Goebbelsian lies. This time, not a Trident, but a Factory of lies. Let's take a tour of their assembly line.

51 Reasons to #QuitAAP

Started writing this diary on 1/19/2014...

The spontaneous and natural reflex of India's aam-aadmi got trended for 3 consecutive days and became one of the most popular buzzes in Indian social media. #QuitAAP. Why? What broke the honeymoon of Dilli-ites with the Anarchist Party of India (API - AAP should have been named this) in mere a month of their assuming power? Have they now realized that AAP was a mukhauta? I am trying to list down 101 probable reasons that made the aam-aadmi utter #QuitAAP.

1. AAP is Congress's "shikhandi front" - #AAPCon

• 1.2 . AAP after grabbing the gaddi , to common man's surprise, turned soft to corruption cases of outgoing Congress Govt.
• 1.3. Not only the outgoing Congress Dilli government, no AAP leader has ever whispered a word against the massive central scams like CWG, Adarsh, 2G, Tetra or Coalgate.Anti-corruption party? Mubarak ho.
• 1.4. Kejriwal who vowed to act against Sheila Dixit's corruption, and contested against her as a symbolic gesture against corrupt forces, after becoming CM with Sheila's support, asked Leader of Opposition Dr. Harshavardhan to get proofs to act against her! 
• 1.5. Kejriwal tweeted this in Nov end. And reality? Not power hungry I guess.

             

Yes We Can

Addendum to the below blog:

Thanks to Center Right India for making Modi's 2004 Vibrant Gujarat speech available to us. In 2004, Narendra Modi thundered "Yes Gujarat can, and Gujaratis will" slogan from VibGuj stage, in presiding presence of Vajpayee. In the video we can see how enthusiastically he thrusts his firm fists up asking audience to echo "Gujarat can, Gujaratis will". Well, this was 4 years before Lady Michelle Obama made it as Democrats' Presidential campaign slogan. One more example that no one, unlike claimed by NDTV, Digvijay Singh and their trolls, has a copyright on "Yes we can" and one more proof that how low the Leftist Congress can stoop down to.

Second Emergency in India by Indira's Family

A black day for Indian democracy. Following an utter failure to contain a deadly Islamist (read not Islamic) riot by illegal immigrants from Bangladesh in Assam province, Government got 'Jo Huzoor' media bail it out. Within days, Islamists in Mumbai demonstrated violent protests against a handful death of fellow 'Muslim Brothers' in Assam and Rohingya terrorists in Myanmar. Result, public buses were burned, people's properties vandalized, police attacked, women raped in the name of 'Islamist' way of protest.

“An army without culture is a dull-witted army, and a dull-witted army cannot defeat the enemy” --- Mao Zedong

Mao Zedong, the first Chairman and President of the independent People’s Republic of China, had spent more time to assess weakness of India than Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Premier of independent India, wasted in apprehending China’s strength. Nehru remained confused on whether China's strength was communism or Han nationalism.

Ajoy Chatterjee - 9/1/2011

Thousands of brains have stormed to foresee whether Ramlila Ground would be the Tahrir Square of India. Well, the answer is clear now. It did not. Anna Hazare’s ‘Great Indian Fast’ against corruption ended with a declared ‘victory’. But looking at Indian government’s stance, future of the much desired anti-corruption law still does not look very bright. Also, the old Gandhian has stated his plans toward the next agenda – Electoral Reforms, Right to Reject and Right to Recall elected representatives charged with corruption. It is likely, that Ramlila Ground may witness much more in recent future. Nothing is over yet.

LITTLE ROCK — When the January referendum for South Sudan’s independence passed, along with the cheer for liberty, many fears gushed forth. Tomorrow, this planet will get its newest nation. This freedom came after a wait of five years since the comprehensive peace agreement was accorded between a cornered Sudan and the South Sudan People’s Liberation Movement. And freedom is precious. But in the case of South Sudan, there is little to cherish.
