The Key to
decode CAA/NRC lies with reading Golwalkar
If
any innocent minds had any false illusion about what the real BJP is, they must
have got a rude awakening now. The CAA has brought out the true BJP to the
fore. The ravenous wolf disguised in the sheep clothing has now come out in the
open. The divider in chief now lay exposed as the true heir apparent of M.S.
Golwalkar. BJP is desperately trying to
make Golwalkar dream come true. They are fast-forwarding the path to his ‘Hindu
Rashtra’, destroying our constitution, all its institutions and the very heart
of Idea of India in the process. In fact
the key to decode the CAA/NRC lies with reading Golwalkar. To know the real
intent behind the CAA, one only needs to recall the two paragraphs from
Golwalkar.
First
one is where he said, “The non-Hindu people of Hindustan may stay in the
country, wholly subordinated to the Hindu nation, claiming nothing, deserving
no privileges, far less any preferential treatment, not even citizen’s rights”.
And that is exactly what we are seeing now. That is exactly what the CAA is
about. The CAA/NRC duo is to steal the citizen’s rights from those who Golwalkar
and RSS list as the “enemies”. CAA is
the latest of the several milestones in the long destructive and regressive
journey that Savarkar started in 1920s with his ‘Hindu Rashtra’ proposition along
with Golwalkar who theorized it later in his writings.
Secondly,
Golwalkar went on to say, ”To keep up the purity of the Race and its culture,
Germany shocked the world by purging the country of the Semitic races – the
Jews… a good lesson for us to learn and profit by”. Germany is where RSS wants
to learn from and Nazis is who they want to idolise. RSS wants to purge the Semitic
races from India too and the CAA is the means for the same. Seeing the massive
protest and awakening all over the country, the BJP is now trying desperately to
quell the fire asking ‘why are you link CAA and NRC’. The answer is – “Not us,
but you did it, Mr.Amit Shah”. You said you would first bring CAA to get
refugees in and then the NRC to weed the infiltrators out. You asked us to specifically
note the ‘Chronology’, the order. And now we do understand why the ‘Chronology’
was important, who your refugees are and who you want to brand as ‘infiltrators’.
The
message is not lost on anyone about what BJP/RSS is trying to do with this
country. They are throwing our great country to the dogs. They are dividing the
heart and soul of our nation into pieces. Instead of drawing strength and
inspiration from the diversity of this great garden, they want to pluck out the
roses and orchids and destroy the whole Garden itself. You want to erase
Muslims, Christians and the Communists, the internal threats Golwalker listed?
And then what? Turn your swords against
the dalits, shudras and whoever you think are ‘Neech jati’? Ultimately what RSS
targets is a ‘Brahminical India’ where Manusmriti would serve as the
constitution. We cannot and will not let that happen.
Someone
should advice BJP to read at least Swami Vivekananda in this hour of crisis instead
of Golwalkar. It was none other but Swami Vivekananda who said
“…for
our motherland, a conjunction of the two great systems, Hinduism and Islam —
Vedanta Brain and Islam Body is the only hope”
He
even went onto state that “Practical Advaita, which looks upon and behaves to
all mankind as one’s own soul, was never developed amongst the Hindus
universally.” And, “if any religion
approached equality in any appreciable manner it was Islam and Islam alone.”
The reference was to the central idea of equality.
In
this time of extreme distress, when the nation is struggling to feed her
people, please focus on the real need of the people. Inspire to unite them
instead of inventing new ways of dividing them and making them suffer even
more. Get the economy right first; we have enough time to think about
citizenship later. I am sure the Finance Minister must be heaving a sigh of
relief now. The worst performing minister in this cabinet was the Finance Minister
till last week with an economy that is rotting in the waste bin. Now she is
only second in the list. The Home Minister has stolen the top slot from her, swapping
the honours between themselves. Certainly
Mr.Shah has no moral right to be in the government. In fact BJP who cannot see
Indians as a whole and can see them only as races and sectors identified by their
‘clothes’, has no moral right to be ruling this country. Mr.Shah must resign
and CAB must be torn apart. The present struggle will cease only then.
