'Bharat as the last great civilisational defence'
Dr. Vijaya Rajiva (Haindava Keralam 20/06/2010)
India continues to show amazing creativity in the face of great
odds. A colonised nation that suffered the night of two long
Occupations, the Islamic and the British, it is still contending
with a dangerous neighbourhood, and as well internal enemies.
Hence, even small initiatives, can make a difference. In what
has been called the 'Maoist' problem, the Congress government
has only mouthed platitudes such as they are our own people.
The main leaders of the Maoist struggle should be dealt with
as much force as is suitable under the circumstances, and it
might not be inappropriate to try the cowardly wringers of
chicken necks(target practice for the coming bloody revolution!)
such as Kobad Ghandy and mete out the appropriate punishment.
Regarding the Tribals themselves, the Centre needs to do much
more than pay lip service to 'development'. There is no quesion
that land rights must be seriously granted to the Vanavasis. And
the mining corporations must be reined in.
Meanwhile, the West Bengal government,which has bungled many
other issues, has for once shown a creative Gandhian approach
to the Tribals who are incarcerated for participating in the Maoist
struggle against the Indian state. Many young tribals continue to
be killed by the might of the Indian state, even while benighted
activists,sitting in their comfortable homes in the metropolises,
continue to send them to an early death with misleading propaganda.
Hence, the West Bengal initiative to rehabilitate the prisoners is
to be commended both because it is the civilised thing to do and
the Bharatiya thing to do.The prisoners are divided into two groups,
those who are educated and those who are not. The former are
encouraged to develop their prior skills in art and literature,
while the latter are given training in vocational skills. An article
by Dola Mitra outlines the activities ('Working Class for the Maoists,
Outlookindia,June 28,2010).
Both the author and Outlookindia are to be congratulated for
reporting on this important event.
Why is this the Bharatiya thing to do ? There are two main reaons. . . . .
