Congress Fascism, the midnight of 4th June

The early hours of the June 5^th 2011 would have surely reminisced Indians of “The Jallianwala Bagh massacre” and the “1975 emergency” when the silent and non-violent protests by Baba Ramdev and his followers against Black Money at the Ramlila Maidan New Delhi, were quashed by the Delhi police in a manner which was profoundly ‘Undemocratic’. Article 19b of the Indian constitution states that: “It is the FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT of every Indian to assemble peaceably and without arms”. Clearly there was no violation of law and order in any terms at Baba Ramdev’s satyagrah . Then what made the Delhi police to undertake such a bizarre, sudden and barbaric action? The orders to the Delhi police are controlled by the government at the centre, presently the United Progressive Alliance (UPA).

With the exposure of Scams and growth of corruption in the regime of UPA, serious questions have been rising regarding the incompetence of the government to act against corruption and just as many of them could be framed out from this draconian act. The silhouette of this entire drama gives the intimation of a ‘plot’ against the Baba’s protest. It was very well know before to the entire country that Baba Ramdev would go onto an indefinite fast against stashing of Black Money till his demand (i.e declaring it as a public asset) was fulfilled by the government. Even before June 4, when he reached New Delhi he was received by the 4 biggest leaders of the congress party at the airport, a welcome that not even US president Barak Obama had been eligible to receive. The government appeared to be in abject capitulation to almost all the demands of the Baba. Even after Baba Ramdev repeatedly announcing a gathering of lakhs of people in the satyagrah it allowed the swami to “assemble” and undergo a peaceful fast. But as the day advanced towards the midnight, the night of the 4^th turned out to be the protestor’s worst nightmare. Allegations on the Delhi police are that it manhandled the woman supporters of Baba Ramdev and the men, women (old and young) and the children were “lathi charged” by 5000 policemen and were reined by tear gas. Drunken policemen pulled out women from the toilets and literally “undressed” them and stood them “naked”. Why did the government have to support such a savage act? The justifications of the police – which are that the ground was getting overcrowded and intelligence reports  said that Baba Ramdev’s life was at jeopardy- utterly seem to be contradictory and give a clear indication the complicity of the government in stashing the money in tax havens.

Not being remiss about the justification of the governments supremo, Dr. Manmohan Singh, the ‘honorable’ Prime Minister of “INDEPENDENT” India, believes that THE ACT WAS UNFORTNATE BUT WE (GOVERNMENT) HAD NO OPTION. Decrypting the statement a little we understand that the Prime minister wants to say that “it was necessary the  women be RAPED, their clothes be torn”, “the old, whose legs no more work, had to be broken because they are useless now” “The young Indians had to break their limbs and have the fists and boots of the policemen even before they could get up from their sleep” and all this just because people in the Ramlila Maidan were over pouring!! . On this note Dr. Manmohan Singh, a man of such honor, credibility and recognition, must receive a ‘standing ovation’ from the country for selling himself so CHEAP. If the government adopts a policy “We have a right to indulge corruption and anybody who comes in the way will be crushed”, then these stirring events in the past few months and in the forthcoming months will force the government to look at itself, because the tears of the people are need to noticed. These events have surely bought a blot onto the name the government and the intensity of this blot would be visible in the 2014 elections.
