The emergence of NaMonetized Social Re-Engineering in Indian Polity

The UP election has changed the rules and landscape of Indian politics forever. The major factors responsible for bringing this transformation are mainly two :-

1. Economic Re-Engineering through Demonetization

2. Social Re-Engineering of Caste & Religious political alignment

Demonetization in Nov’2016 was ridiculed by anti Modi economic experts, intellectuals, journalists and politicians as a “human & economic disaster” brought on the nation by a Prime Minister without elitist education tags and even as “despotic” by the likes of Amartya Sen. These rootless arm chair critics awaited first for a common men’s revolt during those 50 days and when that didn’t happen - prayed, predicated, instigated and even manufactured the story of a voters revolt in the various elections following the demonetization period. But the very opposite has happened. Modi wave seemed to have taken the shape of a “TsuNamo” following demonetization and swept the corrupt & criminal opposition parties in the local body and assembly elections alonwith those journalists, economic experts & intellectuals. If a wind is blowing from Karnataka to Maharashtra to Gujarat to Rajasthan to Haryana into Odisha & NE, can UP – the laboratory of re-engineering of Indian politics be untouched? Since the time of India’s independence, every political party, intellectual and expert has always retorted that corruption & black money are the main causes of the economic backwardness & misery of majority of poor, underprivileged Indian. Yet, nothing was done till Modi came less than 3 years ago to break the shackles of corruption driven by black money in our country. So much so that Indira Gandhi nationalized banks in the name of poor in 1969 but the poor had to wait till Narendra Modi became the prime Minister for the banks to open their doors to them. it is only a Modi who after 47 years of bank nationalization, took steps to open bank accounts for the majority of poor common men. Demonetization has further shown to the common men of the nation that only the privileged class & beneficiaries of crony capitalism, who were directly affected by demonetization have made a hue & cry by protesting/opposing it without much substance, while the under privileged, honest & hard working class - who were merely inconvenienced have chosen to be resilient for long term greater good of this nation. These self-serving politicians and experts have failed to capture the moral and structural dimension of the demonetization. It was the first ever move to capture the moral high ground by taking on the dishonest class of the society in a way that no other self-certified socialist or communist so called pro-poor leaders or party could do or even imagined earlier. It has strengthened Modi’s charisma and image that he is incorrupt and incorruptible. And that he won’t compromise with corruption even at the cost of his political career. This has enhanced Modi’s personal stature and made BJP acceptable to the large cross section of underprivileged voters. The poor have finally found in Modi a decisive and strong leader, who is determined to do something for their hopes and aspirations. Hence, his statement during UP campaign that “Hardwork matters more than Harvard”, had hit the right cord with not only the less privileged class in UP but across the nation.

Poverty doesn’t discriminate between caste or religion. For far too long, manipulative politicians backed by their boot licker historians, intellectuals and media had hidden the truth about poverty behind a curtain of distorted ancient or newly manufactured caste & religious divide. They prospered by exploiting the economic insecurity and misery of common men for their own benefit. The so called “Socialist leaders” like Mayabati, Mulayam, Lalu etc. have made good governance a laughing stock by their exploits. The established theory was that the hindu votes will always be divided between various class and upper & lower castes. Hence, the winning formula specially after the “Mandal experiment” was to break them into more sub castes by flogging the either ancient or now manufactured stories of exploitation by the upper castes, even play the so called upper castes like Brahmins, Thakurs and Baniyas against each other and appease one minority community to manipulate democracy in India. BJP is working relentlessly to erase this age old and mostly artificially manufactured caste and occupational divides. Urbanization, migration, spread of education/information and breakdown of earlier caste based occupations also have helped made the earlier caste & community distinctions irrelevant. After NDA Govt led by Modi came to power at the centre, in UP - some 52 lakh women have got Ujjwala gas, Rs 20,000 crore loan has been given through Mudra bank, the Rs 2 lakh life insurance has created more than one crore beneficiaries among the poor & backward class, some 3 crore Jan Dhan accounts have been opened, 1,464 villages got electricity connections first time after 68 years of independence, 11,000 new toilets were constructed under a central government scheme. And all these happened without discriminating between any caste or religion. Unlike SP, in whose rule only the Yadavs among OBCs or in Mayabati’s rule, when only Jatavs among Dalits - mostly benefited economically & politically and became so powerful that they became a class by themselves – NDAs benefits encompassed all castes including non Yadav OBCs and non Jatav Dalits as well as economically weaker upper castes. Even Muslims, saw that LPG or Mudra loans or Jan Dhan accounts or toilets or electricity were as available to them as anybody else on the basis of poverty and not faith. They realized the myth created & circulated about Narandra Modi since 2002 were lies designed for electoral benefits. The common men of India, today see in Modi a political leader hailing from a poor backward caste family who has remained personally poor, has no greedy relatives exploiting his position and is serious about uplifting the poor & backward through education, health and economic reforms and change the social, political economic culture of this nation to change its image in the world. It slowly began to sink on the large under privileged voters that Modi believes in delivery rather than false rhetoric/promise as is the case with most other top politicians from other political parties. Modi’s message that election & political power are not about caste, religion or region but about elimination of poverty and all round progressive development though good governance in the entire country without any discrimination – Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikash - has slowly started began to sink into the conscience of the common men of this nation. This has brought various class, caste and religious groups closer to each other leading to a social re-engineering.

It is this Re-Engineering of Economic Class, Caste and Religious barriers - created over last 60+ years by the so called “fake Secular-Socialist” political parties in collaboration with a section of paid media, intellectuals & activists, just to confine power, policy & discourse making privilege within themselves by twisting, falsifying and distorting India’s history, economy, sociology and politics - is generating an undercurrent with the new age conscious voters of this nation as evident from the various elections from Panchayat to Assembly since 2014. The UP election verdict is surely just the beginning of a “New India”, finally emerging breaking the shackles of the several century old colonial culture and its agents.

Those who have 'illusion' that 2014 was the “Peak of Modi Wave” are terribly wrong. It was just the “Beginning of Modi Era”.

Enough is enough JNU variety Liberals…

Our pseudo secular politicians from Cong, Left and some of the regional parties, who are ever ready to sale their mother land to garner votes supported by anti-national intellectuals, NGOs and media are deliberately twisting the Ramjas incident to make the narrative as that of Freedom of Expression vs Modi Govt. There is a clear difference between free speech and spreading sedition. These forces are trying to destroy the educational institutions of our country by introducing their dirty anti national and leftist agenda into them. They are using the garb of freedom of speech to break code of conduct, when they themselves do not honour freedom of speech of others. What we see today in India is that a section of our intellectuals, politicians and media are going overboard with the term 'freedom' and 'democracy'. In the name of democratic practices, they are trying to convert our country into a breeding ground for indiscipline, law lessness and anti-national activities backed by forces within and outside India, who are scared that the present Govt. is trying to break the century old shackles of slave mentality of our nation and its people and their weak kneed submission to designs of invaders, who want to rule India by destroying its culture, heritage and civilization. These groups are the remaining artefacts of the colonial and communist forces who ran amok in India's institutions making them political hotbeds to distort India’s history, culture and nationalism to keep them slaves to the teachings of the invaders.

There should be a total overhaul of JNU, HCU and any other such institutions infested by the anti-national brigade masquerading as students. Their perverse and irrational fantasy about an “independent Kashmir” or “workers & peasants rule through Maoist type revolution” must be dealt strongly. Giving credibility to such forces by inviting them on prime time TV debates or for seminars must also be stopped even if that means curtailment of their “seditious freedom of expression”. From their fanatical support to Maoist terrorists and espousing the cause of Afzal Guru & Kashmiri separatists, their seditious activities have reached astronomical levels. This is only because they know that the secular political parties like Congress, Left front and some of the regional parties will come to their support even by defending terrorists and compromise national integrity and security. But, we must expose them alongwith the forces backing and sponsoring them. Questioning the integrity and sovereignty of the nation, espousing the cause of separatists & terrorists, opposing the judgement of the highest court of the land is anti-national activity. It should not be allowed to spread and grow. Anti national face of these Liberal-Leftists-Secular forces should be exposed, These are elements, who sympathize with militants & enemies of the nation and provide moral & logistical support to them. Govt. should clear the prestigious institutions from these forces. Otherwise such incidents will continue to reoccur and tomorrow they will say Hafiz Sayeed and Maulana Masood Azhar are saints and they are being accused only because they are Muslims. Judiciary should also not take these anti national activities lying down, as by organizing such events supporting convicted terrorists they are actually humiliating and demeaning the judiciary. It’s high time we show them limits of our tolerance and stop these nonsense in name of liberal democracy and freedom of speech. If some people in this country don't respect Indian law & oppose India’s sovereignty and take up causes for Pakistan & Separatists, they should actually not be allowed the rights & life of bonafied citizens of this country. JNU since inception has acted as a recruitment & nurturing ground for radical & anti-national ideologies at the cost of tax payers money. The whole atmosphere in the campus of this institution has been moulded to brainwash students by certain political forces towards anti India and pro naxal leanings. If that is called liberal, democratic ideology then better we be conservatives.

By now it should be clear to all that these controversies are being engineered on a frequent basis by the Congress and Leftists since the time they are on a decline infront of the nationalist forces. They cannot bear to see a nationalistic, patriotic, courageous & proud Indian in power and want to create all kinds of mischief & trouble. The nationalistic Indians have to send a serious message to the Congress and Communists to stop this kind of anti-national behaviour & activity by making them politically extinct. All nationalist & patriotic Indians also need to keep their eyes, ears & mind open, to burst all plans & conspiracies of the enemies sitting outside India and fighting a proxy war through their puppets inside India to weaken our nation.

Mr Chidambaram & Mr Abdullah – Army Chief has not crossed his line on Kashmir but both of you have

All Nationalist and Patriotic citizens of India must rally around army chief General Bipin Rawat over his warning that those who indulge in secessionist activities, create hurdles during anti-militancy operations and display flags of Pakistan & ISIS in  Kashmir would be dealt as anti-nationals and will face harsh actions.

But Congress leader and Ex Home Minister, P Chidambaram made a disgusting comment in a TV Interview saying that it is a “wrong approach” and that the Army Chief’s warning to anti nationals is ‘intemperate’. Can he dare to explain to  the nationalist & patriotic people of this country, why even after knowing the ‘right approach’,  he failed to solve the Kashmir problem during his tenure as Home Minister of India or his party Congress during their 60+years of rule?  Can he also tell us what effective action he or his party ever took to deter the militants and their supporters from anti – national activities including waving of the Pakistani flags?  Can he enlighten us, what was so ‘intemperate’ in the Army Chief’s statement and how his or his party’s ‘temperate’ statements helped bring about peace in the valley over so many decades?

National Conference (NC) president and Ex CM Farooq Abdullah, addressing party workers at a meeting said that the youth in Kashmir are sacrificing their life to fulfil their promise to God “for freedom of this nation”. Also, that Army Chief’s statement was wrong and Kashmir problem can’t be solved by  “bullet or gun but by dialogue”. Can Mr.Abdullah explain, why he doesn’t give the same advice to those youth sacrificing their life attacking Indian army with “guns & bombs” and waging Jihad in the name of their God for freedom from India? Yes, this nation is aware of the dialogue these radical Jihadi separatists seek - loot, murder, rape & convert of all non islamists and make Kashmir a province of Pakistan. This nation has tolerated them for far too long as  earlier Govt’s didn’t have the courage but now we are paying them back in kind in their own language.

Any statement and action by anybody, overtly or covertly, in support of  people or organization engaged in anti-national activities or waging war against the sovereignty and integrity of the nation, must be regarded as abetting such activity or war and a crime of high treason. And under our country’s law abetting a such a crime is a cognisable offence. Netas like Chidambaram and Farooq Abdullah should be put on trial in Military court for high treason.  Both these highly corrupt persons engaged in “Business of Politics” should realize that Kashmir is a problem for last 70 years and suffering for the nation because of  primarily 2 families, Nehru-Gandhi Family & Abdullah family. Both these 2 anti-national families over generations are not only failing to solve this problem but rather keeping it alive due to their own political interests.  Chidambaram should know that Kashmir is not lost today instead Pakistan is scared that they are losing credibility on their Kashmir cause as International community is completely isolating and rebuking them on this issue and even people in PoK are agitating for the first time to be free from Pak occupation. There is no chance of India losing Kashmir today as Modi Govt has given a free hand to the Indian armed forces and retaliating  aggression of Pakistani army, jihadi terrorists, Kashmiri separatists & their radicalized supporters/sympathisers with disproportionate ferocity. Rather, Kashmir was almost lost to Pakistan when Nehru didn’t allow Sardar Patel to handle it while he was merging all other princely states in India after independence, Part of Kashmir was  lost when Nehru didn’t allow India Army to pursue the Pak Army and Invaders from occupying Kashmir valley, Kashmir was lost when Nehru went to UNO requesting it to intervene  in J&K, Kashmir was lost when he patronized, secretly negotiated &  accepted anti national demands of Sheik Abdullah, Kashmir was lost when Indira Gandhi released lakhs of Pakistani PoW without settling the Kashmir issue during Shimla agreement, Kashmir was lost when Congress manipulated & rigged assembly elections to retain power in that state or to keep Abdullahs in power, Kashmir was lost when Congress remained mute spectator to the genocide and displacement of 5 lakhs Kashmiri Pandits, Kashmir was lost when it refused to give free hand to Indian Armed forces while dealing with separatists & Pakistani backed terrorists for over 60 years.

But, for the Congress party, the situation in Kashmir deteriorated only when BJP and PDP formed the  alliance Govt in J&K. For them, the situation deteriorated only when Modi Govt decided to retaliate against Pakistani aggression & design at the boarder and  taken a tough stand by giving armed forces free hand to deal with the terrorists & their supporters, sympathisers in Kashmir valley. For the Communists and other so called secular parties like National Conference and other regional parties,  the valley is “burning only now” because of the “blood” of the “innocents” and “young” (like Burhan Wanis)  allegedly shed due to excesses committed by our security forces.  For these political  parties, the Modi Govt not Pakistan, is the real culprit.

The Kashmir people and specially the youth are completely radicalised and are seeking total Islamisation of Kashmir. Sponsored and supported  by Pakistan and the Wahabi Islamic nations like Saudi Arabia, the Jihadi militancy is aimed at making Kashmir an Islamic province of Pakistan. They provoke security forces by throwing stones and burning police stations. They destroy schools, courts Govt buildings and infrastructures like roads & bridges. They fly defiantly the flags of Pakistan and ISIS. No amount of civilized concessions and peace gestures to these  separatist people, militants and their leaders will ever appease them as their real goal is secession. They will never reconcile with a non-Islamic India. Hence, a tough approach to show them the futility of their struggle is the only way. This is a long fight and 70 years of appeasement & submissive handling has made it even more difficult.  But we can’t give up as this might embolden many other Muslim dominated areas in the rest of the country to take a similar strategy for expansion of militant Islamism like in Afghanistan or Iraq-Syria. India is the unfinished historical agenda of the Islamists for thousands of years.

All nationalistic Indians need to introspect and look at India’s retched history of pseudo-secular politics and consider the terrible price the nation has paid at the altar of appeasement because the Indian State had toed the line of least resistance. All this talk of struggle for Kashmiriyat is a façade just to hide ulterior motive of the Jihadists of Kashmir. Else why none of the so called indigenous separatists groups like “Hijbul Mujahedeen” etc and their supporters & sympathiser population  of Kashmir never spoke against the illegal occupation of part of Kashmir by Pakistan? Why have they never agitated against Pakistani Govt for poor governance, lack of development and violation of human rights in PoK but only cite the same reasons for their agitation/uprising against Indian state & Govt?

The entire Kashmir problem since beginning  is a manifestation of the Valley people’s desire for Islamic identify rather than  "Kashmiriyat". Had this been a struggle for Kashmiriyat, majority of Kashmiri’s could not have participated in genocide and displacement of 5 lacs of Kashmiri Pandits from their home of  thousands of years and destruction of non-Islamic cultural/civilizational identities/monuments of Kashmir.  At the time of India’s independence, there were possibly some Kashmiris who dreamt of an independent Muslim majority Kashmir state. But soon they realized the futility of such a dream as an independent Kashmir’s  birth, let alone survival was not possible both economically and politically. So, they immediately changed the “azadi” narrative and actions to being part of “Islamic Republic of Pakistan” with active moral, material and financial support of Pakistani state and people. Today Kashmir issue  is part of Pakistan’s desire for revenge  for  losing East Pakistan (now Bangladesh)  and geo-political expansionist strategy to unify co-religionists of the subcontinent. So, it’s high time we see the so called “struggle and uprisings” in Kashmir in the right perspective and devise our response & action. Till we live in denial about the “core truth” about the Kashmir problem and also allow the apologist media, intellectuals, activists and pseudo secular politicians  in the garb of “Kashmir Expert” to pull wool  over our eyes about the real problem – this nation will continue to suffer and remain a playground for our enemies.

These psedo-secular, self-serving politicians for appeasing their vote bank and their collaborator intellectuals & media,  argue in the name of democracy that the radicalised militants may kill hundreds of our security personnel, their over ground supporters & sympathisers may throw stones/petrol bombs, seriously  injuring our security forces and hamper their operations against militants, even help militants cornered in such operations to flee  but the latter can’t use even pellets, let alone bullets against them. For these politicians and the “liberal” intellectuals & media, only the blood & life of the Kashmiri radicals have value but not of our security personnel from the rest of the country. We need to put into their pseudo secular, submissive & apologetic brains that if the Kashmir valley is still a part of India, it is not because of their views, policies & actions but because of the sacrifices made by our security forces since our independence.

It’s high time, that we follow, the preaching of Kathopanishad, popularised by Swami Vivekanand, “Arise, Awake & Stop not, till the Goal is Achieved”, the goal being liberating our country, from the clutches of these self-serving submissive apologists of India’s enemies. 

An Open Letter to Dr. Manmohan Singh on Demonetization Debate

Dear Dr.Singh,

I, as a common man of this nation, have the highest regard for you as an economic expert and for your contribution towards liberalization of the nation’s economy as Finance Minister. During your long career when you wore many hats – from Professor to RBI Governor and from Dy. Chairman of Planning Commission to Union Finance Minister – you had earned respect for your acumen and revolutionary steps to change the economic landscape of this nation. Till then this nation saw your technocrat side rather than the political side and even your ideological adversaries - be it in the field of Finance or Politics - had to hold you in high esteem for your personal & profession integrity and apolitical work in the nation’s interest. Finally you became Prime Minister for 10 long years. However, watching you speak in the Rajya Sabha a few days back, I felt that your political compulsions interfered with your honest assessment of the Demonetization as an economic expert.

Probably, this same compulsion pushed the technocrat in you to the background making your 10 years as Prime Minister – the worst in terms of corruption and scam in our nation’s history. It was during your Prime Ministership that we saw CWG scam, 2G spectrum scam, Coal block allocation scam, AgustaWestland helicopter scam, Tatra truck scam, Antrix Devas scam, Cash-for-Vote scam, Adarsh Housing Society scam, Banking sector scam etc. And these were just a handful among many more such blatant plunder of the nation’s resources and tax payer’s money. Obeying your political master Sonia Gandhi’s command & digesting insults at the hands of her worthless spoilt brat Rahul Gandhi - you had only watched helplessly as the economy & the government machinery of the country disintegrated right before your eyes. You had even justified the monumental loot of the nation, saying it was coalition dharma. What action did you take to curb black money? In spite of serious criticism by the Supreme Court of India, your Govt. was so unrelenting & remorseless that it even refused to establish a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to investigate black money.

During your 7 minutes speech in Rajya Sabha, you had used a few words/phrases like, "monumental mismanagement, organised loot, legalised plunder and In the long run all of us are dead" etc. to describe the Demonetization process of the present Govt and I would attempt to answer you on behalf of the common men of India on each of the points you had raised against Demonetization.

It’s a no brainer that Prime Minister Modi with this single stroke of demonetization has destroyed the base of corruption in India built over several decades. With this single move, the current Govt has made a serious attempt for the first time ever to tackle all the three aspects of black money affecting the economy i.e. a parallel cash economy, counterfeit currency and terror financing.

The demonetization decision was not taken without thorough and systematic planning to curb black money. This is evident from the fact that in the first ever Cabinet meeting of the Modi Govt, decision to form the SIT to investigate black money was cleared which was till then kept in cold storage under your Govt. Tax treaties were renegotiated and signed with various foreign Govts to collect information on suspected persons, their bank accounts and transactions in tax heavens around the world. This made it much harder to hide cash abroad as well as round tripping of funds to India. As per various monitoring agencies around the world, this led to drying up of outflow of black money from India and created fear in the hearts of people who had such money stacked in accounts and other investments in tax heavens & elsewhere. Then the Black Money (Undisclosed Foreign Income & Assets) and Imposition of Tax Act, 2015 was introduced to bring back black money stashed abroad and its compliance window ended on 30 Sept’15. This act also had various stringent provisions for penalty and prosecution of foreign black money holder’s unearthed during future investigation by the tax dept. Govt also made it mandatory effective January’16, to quote PAN for all sale & purchase of goods & services above Rs.2 lakh in a bid to curb black money. This move brought all high-value household purchases like high-end electronic gadgets, foreign holiday packages, luxury items like expensive watches & gold jewellery purchases under the lens of the tax dept. After that, this Govt's black money declaration scheme received a record Rs. 65,250 cr in the IDS during the 4 months window that closed in October’16. PM Modi publicly declared that this was the last & final opportunity for tax evaders to come clean in the eyes of law. Simultaneously, this Govt opened more than 25.5 crore Jan-Dhan accounts for people from the lower strata of the economic pyramid & working in the unorganized sector and nearly 20 crore "Rupay" debit cards were issued to people who were out of the formal banking system of the country. All these steps were directed towards promoting greater financial transparency and more accounted transaction in India. So, the demonetisation scheme forms a major part of this series and clearly not a decision taken in haste to curb the menace of black money. PM Modi has also announced that he would not stop here and after 30th Dec’16, many more strong & effective measures will be taken to eliminate this menace, “Benami Property” being his next target. While it’s correct that there have been long queues and disruptions of economic activities in the short term, neither the bonafide intent nor the execution by Govt can be questioned as no one in this world has any experience or expertise of such a humongous exercise. Many of the problems seen today could never have been anticipated and a few which were anticipated could not have been mitigated by taking advanced action as the surprise element would have been lost for sure. It is the surprise element, due to which this demonetisation exercise is set to yield phenomenal results. PM Modi has rightly said that majority of the heart burn is from those who didn’t get enough time or notice to hide or convert their black money as well as black deeds. During your tenure of 10 years, you never dared to even take 1/10th of the above steps to curb black money and had you acted that little probably demonetization would not have been reqd now. So, for you to call demonetization a “monumental mismanagement” is insane.

And who knows better than you, what is “Organised loot & Legalized Plunder”? It is your party’s rule for 60+ years which brought our nation to such a pathetic state and reached pinnacle under your Prime Ministership. We common men are suffering today due to your mis governance and wrong doings. Such comments do not behove a man who allowed organised loot & legalized plunder of public money at monumental scale for 10 years. While PM Modi has carried out a “surgical strike” on black money amassed by the corrupt politicians & economic criminals and declared those as “Toilet Paper”, you never had even the guts & the spine to stand up to the nefarious designs of some members of your party & cabinet even as they were plundering our exchequer under the patronage of your high command.

Dr. Singh, as per your claim, some 70 people allegedly died while exchanging currency notes/withdrawing money, but you never bothered about the lakhs of people who died due to not having currency notes during your rule. Also, when you were the Finance Minister in 1992, you were a silent spectator to the stock market scam from Harshad Mehta. The stocks crashed and many innocent people including retired persons lost all their life’s saving, many 100s died of stroke or committed suicide. But none was compensated. Where were your sympathy then for those dead? He who winks at crime is no better than the criminal committing it. Yes, the common men have been inconvenienced by Modi Govt's demonetisation of the high-value currency notes and face a period of hardship but unlike during your regime, now they don't have to cope with double-digit inflation that halved their meagre income and are not cheated of their hard-earned money through elaborate scams.

You had talked about Keynesian theory that “in the long run all of us are dead”. But by saying the above, you actually contradicted your biggest achievement - had you not taken the “long run” into consideration, no economic reform of 1992 would have been possible. Yes, we are all dead in the long run but that doesn’t justify a Govt. not doing enough for our future generations. We surely will be dead in the long run but this nation will still be alive. And our future generation will hold us responsible for not doing our duty to give them a clean, corruption free, progressive and developed India. India of today’s generation required demonetisation because Dr. Singh, as Prime Minister you had failed to implement the Keynes theory. And neither could you control the side-effects of corruption, nepotism and misuse of public spending. Just accept honestly Dr. Singh, that you had your chances but you botched it up.

We the common men of this nation, are amazed at the logic and arguments your party and alliance partners are putting forward. Since, PM Modi won the 2014 elections, all of you were daring him to act against black money as he had promised during his campaign. You all had even accused him of “jumla baazi” and being hand in glove with the black money hoarders. When he launched the Jan Dhan Yojna accounts, you had ridiculed him for wasting effort and investment in unnecessary actions and pointed to the low deposit in those accounts. When he announced voluntary disclosure schemes for declaring black money, you had taunted him by assuring low response and failure. When he raided black money hoarders, you had accused him of Tax Terrorism. But when Demonetization happened, suddenly you remembered those poor people who don’t have a bank account and may face inconvenience while exchanging/withdrawing hard earned money? And your party, whose 60+ years of socialistic pattern of license-permit raj, which made a virtue of standing in queues - from ration to kerosene/gas, phone/electricity connection to train/bus tickets, Hospital treatment to birth/death certificates, seeds/fertilizer to trade license – suddenly realized that that queues are the worst form of oppression in this nation?

The problem of Black money or rather the parallel economy created over 60+ years of mainly Congress rule, can't be solved so easily. It needs some innovative, drastic and disruptive measures. PM Modi has dared to do that. He has attempted to clean the muck, make the economy robust and establish confidence of the people in the system. Any disruptive solution will have a bit of inconvenience. Those, whose rule was hall mark of “organised loot, legalized plunder and monumental mismanagement” are the least qualified to talk on this subject. You had failed to pick the right person for the right job in your ministry without political consideration and even failed to control your fellow ministers. The money that was looted during your rule is enough to rectify all the downside you are pointing out about the demonetisation process. Had you exercised enough check and balance during your tenure, we wouldn't have required this extreme step by PM Modi. Over 80% of the citizens suffering short term inconvenience today are supporting the demonetization process as they see a better tomorrow with revolutionary transformation. If you had expressed these words/phrases, atleast 3 years back also it would have been a worthy assessment of your Govt.

We have been listening to only complains from the opposition parties since the demonetization process has been initiated. But till now nobody has been able to give a convincing reply on the evils of this process. Only short term inconvenience to people, cash crunch etc. has been highlighted as the main issues. Can't the opposition see the positive aspect of the move? The huge deposits of cash in banks due to demonetization will increase liquidity with banks and supply of money in the market will increase leading to interest rates coming down, which will promote investment in the country. As the investment increases, production of goods and services will rise, leading to increase in employment and thereby income of the people. As the disposable income of people increases, consumption of the goods and services will increase, which will ultimately increase GDP of the country. This current process will also lead to more tax collection for the Govt leading to development of infrastructure. Govt will also be able to spend the additional money unearthed by way of demonetisation (between Rs.3 lakh crore to Rs. 4.5 lakh crore) on social services like affordable housing, education and health care etc. Can’t they see the black money stashed for years been made valueless overnight, counterfeit and terror funding crushed? My sincere apologies Dr.Singh, but we the common men of this nation never expected such bogus allegations and baseless statement from an erudite scholar and experienced technocrat like you. You should have given good suggestions to tide over the present situation rather than making common cause with the corrupt, criminal and anti-national brigade of politicians, journalists and intellectuals who have baked their bread by plundering this nation for long. This nation requires your knowledge and expertise in the development & growth of the nation & its common men and not for the development of your party/alliance or its leaders, who have no emotion for our progress. Can this nation expect this much from an economic expert like you Dr Singh or are we asking for too much? Please be sensible to our national interest atleast at the twilight of your long illustrious career which was marred by self-goal in the 10 years of your Prime Ministership. Only then history will be kind to you Dr. Singh.

With best regards,

A Common Man

Demonization of Demonetization

While the entire Nation is appreciating and applauding PM Modi for his bold and revolutionary decision to demonetize Rs.500 & 1000 currency notes, most of the opposition political parties are criticizing his action citing inconvenience to the common men. But this nation has seen through their such pathetic argument. It’s not very difficult to understand the shock these parties are in due to Modi’s historic decision. It has created a sever tremor in their stashed black money kept hidden in bundles of Rs.500 & 1000 currency notes. The pain of seeing their huge treasure turning into toilet papers overnight is making them speak nonsense. But their lame arguments so far have been shrill, hysterical and devoid of substance or logic. Rather, their reaction to demonetization has shown a collective brain–freeze on their part. The common men are facing this hardship with courage and with a hope of a better tomorrow & greater good for this nation. The Govt. is also working 24 hrs. for making the process of exchange, deposit and withdrawal of currency notes faster and smoother. The entire Govt machinery is giving topmost priority to this process in the next 50 days period and continuously monitoring & improving the process.

The demonization of the demonetization decision has largely come from three political groups and their affiliate media, activists and intellectuals. They are A) Congress, B) Communists and C) Regional political parties like AAP, TMC, SP, BSP, NC, DMK, Shiva Sena etc. But let’s understand why do they condemn the demonetization decision? Is it because it is really a bad decision for our nation?

The reason Congress is opposing the move as Modi has hit not only at their “Khajana of Black Money” amassed over a long time but also at the root of their black money generating, circulating, multiplying and storing machinery. It is also due to the fact that Modi is trying to change the entire social, political & economic culture and discourse of India. If Modi succeeds, India's politics will change forever as then people will vote based on whether the Govt. is corruption free, builds roads & other infrastructure, provides 24 hrs. power, arranges for education, healthcare, world class manufacturing & services facilities, provides an intermediary free fare market for produces and helps people by creating opportunities for livelihood & prosper instead of voting just on caste & minority appeasement, subsidies and free bees. This is not acceptable to Congress as they are never really interested in India progressing to become a developed nation. They want to have more poor and socially divisive population, dirty-filthy cities, towns & villages, corrupt and scam full governance - so that they can continue to bake their bread on India’s woes and Nehru-Gandhi Pvt. Ltd retain their hold on power. Congress and its leaders, institutionalized corruption in India & made it into an industry, looted national resources and thousands of crores of tax payers’ money meant for development of the nation, destroyed & subverted every institution and office, twisted & distorted the social, political and economic discourse for clinging to power and even supported the enemies of the nation for own benefit. They made the nation dirty, mediocre, apologetic, submissive, divisive and status quoist so that they can continue to rule and amass wealth by deceiving & misleading the common men.

It’s a no brainer that Communism is the single biggest political ideology that was responsible for spread of large scale hunger, poverty, strife and mass genocide around the world. It’s the single most hypocritical and regressive political ideology which oppressed the masses it claims to represent using brutality and denial of fundamental rights wherever it flourished. But irony is that the Indian ideological descendants of Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot are giving sermon and certificate to the Modi Govt. of not being sincere to the poor and marginalized common men. These failed communist politicians who don’t have any nationwide political base and ready to sleep anytime with corrupt and criminal Congress & Regional forces to remain relevant are frothing from their mouth showing their outrage at Modi Govt’s decision of demonetization. While they provide leap service saying Black money should be eradicated, CPI(M) general secretary Sitaram Yechury says that Modi Govt. cannot decide the way people of the country live and warned of widespread protest against the “unacceptable” step. As per him India should remain an 80% cash economy which he calls “payment and settlement”. This “payment & settlement” is actually the “socialistic pattern of economy” adopted by India since independence due to hijacking of our Economic Model by different shades of Left-wing thinkers. They created a “License & Permit Raj”, supported by the failed public sector policies - where getting a phone connection took 5 to 10 years, getting a gas cylinder took 10 years, having 1 TV channel controlled by Govt. and going to ration shop for ration to kerosene etc. This system actively encouraged corruption and Govt. employees & middlemen became extortionists. Politicians became experts at stealing public funds. The Frankenstein state with a massive corrupt system, created over 60 years, found new ways to extend itself by conferring new rights on the hapless people - right to information, right to work (MNREGA), right to food, right to education and right to health etc. These are nothing but the state seeking new ways to retain the system of loot based on public resources. While Political wings of the Communist parties have pretended to be with parliamentary democracy, their underground Maoist-Leninist arms wings continue to wage a bloody war in various parts of the country to overthrow the democratic system to establish a "proletariat" ruled by a Marxist politburo of dictatorial governance. Seeing their hold eroding on the Indian Governance, Economic and Education system under Modi Govt, these hypocrites are demonizing the demonetization process.

The third vocal group is the various single leader (or family) centric Regional Political Parties like AAP, SP, BSP, TMC, DMK, Shiva Sena, National Conference etc. If we look at the track record of these regional political parties, we find that they have never done any good to their state or people they claim to represent. This is because caste or region based politics is just a parochial and selfish tactic of these vested politicians, just to get some short term political mileage. They just exploit economic reasons for political dividends and use these only as a short cut to achieve their own political and economic ambitions by emotionally exploiting the sentiments of the people they represent. Also, each of these political parties and their leaders are the most corrupt, criminal and anti-developmental. This is because once they come to power, they realize that they can remain relevant only till such time the people they represent remain socially, educationally, economically and even politically underdeveloped. Whenever and wherever they come to power, they push their state and common men backward by atleast 3x of the time they remain in power. The rise of Modi and BJP has heralded doom for their caste and regional politics. They are losing grip on their vote bank due to rise of developmental politics based on nationalism under Prime Minister Modi. Demonetization has hit them hard as they have lost their huge stock of black money earned through corruption during their rule in various states of the country and this is making their political future bleak in the coming assembly elections. Hence, they are demanding a roll back else threatening violence & riot.

Though all the above political groups are citing inconvenience to the common men as the main reason for opposing demonetization, their concern is not about poor people or their sufferings, but they want common men to remain poor and suffer continuously so that they can use them at their convenience for political mileage. PM Modi rightly says that we need freedom from the status quoist mindset and that the nation is "restless" for a systemic change. Modi is the change agent and all the above opposition parties are status-quoist. Corruption and black money are the biggest hindrances in our nation’s march towards development. The short term inconvenience that we are facing is worth and just a small sacrifice, when looked at the larger interest of our country's economy and fight against corruption and terrorism. So, it’s a solemn duty of every honest and nationalist citizen of this nation to support Prime Minister Modi in his endeavour to track & eliminate black money and thereby corruption from our country. We must stand with the Govt. in foiling the evil design of these corrupt and criminal elements to incite violence and create anarchy. We are fighting this war for ourselves and for our future generations. If we fail to stand up and help PM Modi defeat this corrupt and criminal Congressi-Marxists-Radical-Jihadi-Castiest (CMRJC) brigade of politicians and their supporter/ sympathizer/ collaborator media, activists & intellectuals, our future generation will never forgive us. They will hold us responsible for not doing our duty to give them a clean, corruption free, progressive and developed India.

Surgical Strike on Black Money & Terror Funding

Corruption and black money are the biggest hindrances in our nation’s march towards development. Also, it is the lifeline for terrorism and the proxy war waged by Pakistan on our nation for last 3 decades. They are spreading counterfeit currency notes to destabilize India economically and through Islamic Jihad.   By stopping  circulation of the current  500 and 1,000 rupee currency notes effective  9^th Nov, the Modi Govt. has effectively forced the entire nation to go to the banks or post offices to have their cash in hand in those denominations  added to their bank accounts thereby  forcing them to declare all such cash holdings. This move will have a massive impact on the black money and counterfeiting ecosystem prevalent in the country. This is because the monetary value of 500 and 1,000 currency notes in circulation far outstrips any other denomination, as the chart below shows. Also, 85% of all cash holding are in these two denominations. This very bold  strategy adapted by Modi Govt to dismantle the black economy and the terror funding infrastructure, deserves the highest compliment from every nationalist and patriotic Indian citizen. This should have been done long back but no Prime Minister or political party earlier had enough guts the way Modi has demonstrated and  had turned a blind eye, as there is political patronage to the whole business. He did it very systematically. When we look back, its now evident that the decision was not sudden. It started with the drive for bank account for all including for those who are at the lowest level of the economic pyramid, then linked bank accounts with aadhar etc., then brought disclosure of bank account in income tax return, added to it the various data mining and collection tools in the hands of the economic vigilance & tax authorities, then the income disclosure scheme. And finally this masterstroke. Truly a systematic effort at eliminating and punishing the back economy in the last 2 years.

All of us, of course, have to suffer some short term inconvenience but all that is worth it and is just a small sacrifice, when looked at the larger interest of our country's economy and fight against corruption and terrorism. While the common people are rejoicing  at the announcement, there are some Politicians/Political parties, Media and Individuals with vested interest are unable to digest this masterstroke and are raising irrelevant questions and issues. These political parties and their supporters /sympathizers  are very upset and protesting. They are taking the alibi that the move will cause inconvenience to the poor and common men. But the real reason for their opposing this move is not very difficult to figure out. Prime Minister Modi’s masterstroke aimed at curbing black money could have a far-reaching impact for political parties. It is estimated that about 70% of the funding for political parties come from undocumented sources. With Assembly elections round the corner in states like Punjab, UP, Goa etc., the pulling out of 500 and 1,000 currency notes could pose serious problems for most political parties and candidates.  Opposition political parties - specially Congress, Communists, the Castiest  and  Regional parties -  who have plundered common people through various scams over  almost 6 decades are hell bent upon opposing any move by the current Govt.  for their own interest and anti-national agenda. Also, huge unaccounted cash generated from corrupt practices are being held by individuals or organizations, which have become useless overnight and a major loss to them. The hawala money and counterfeit currency in the hands of the anti-India organizations/individuals have lost use overnight. A Home Ministry report says that remittances worth about Rs 23,000 crore per year reaches only Kerala through the hawala channel. So one can guess how much such money comes to the whole country in only one year. What is alarming is that also large fund comes to the country, camouflaged as money for charity or religion. Another report that analyses these money  found that majority of these are controlled by ISI and other such anti India organizations/individuals.

So, dear Politicians, Journalists, Jholawala Intellectuals & Activists – representing, supporting, sympathizing  - Congressis, Communists, Libtards, Castists & Jihadi lovers - kindly do not worry for inconvenience to the poor common men of this nation.  You have taught us enough resilience to bear with inconvenience through - your agitations, protests, bandhs, hartals on flimsy issues.  And to stand in Ques since our independence for …

Birth/Death certificate
Ration
Kerosene
Hospital treatment
School/College admission

Seeds & Fertilizer

License for business/industry

Jobs

Train & Bus tickets
Electricity/Water/LPG/Phone connections and then to pay these bills

Municipality/Sales/Income tax
Darshans at Religious places
And above all for Voting you to power to plunder us.

So, this time for a few days, we don't mind to stand in the Bank/Post office/ATM Ques to prove our honesty and expose your black money as well as black deeds.

We are not frustrated and complaining. It’s our duty to  support our Prime Minister to bring systemic change in our nation. Our Armed Forces are fighting enemies of our nation at the border and it’s our duty to join them to fight internal as well as external enemies of our nation who are trying to destroy  us economically with the help of some of our own unscrupulous countrymen. We are fighting  this war for ourselves and for our future generations. Drastic change does not come slowly, it hits like a hammer and breaks all that is regressive and status quoist.  It can be inconvenient in the short term but it will be revolutionary transformation in the long run. We don’t mind bearing this short term inconvenience today, for a better tomorrow.

Desh Bada Na Bhaiya, Sabse Bada Rupaiya

Islamic Research Foundation (IRF), the NGO run by the Salafist preacher Zakir Naik to spread Wahabi Islamism and religious conversion in India had paid Rs.50 lacs as donation to the Rajiv Gandhi Foundation led by Sonia Gandhi & her family and run by Congress Party leaders & associates.

It is very significant to note that Zakir Naik, who himself lives on foreign donation to run his activity & his NGO, had selected another NGO led & run by Gandhi family and Congress to redonate Rs.50 Lacs from the donation it received. Also, it is to be noted that majority of the donation received by Naik’s IRF was from Saudi Arabia’s special fund earmarked for setting up of Wahabi centres in India. Saudi Arabia, by establishing Wahabi centres wants to instill a radical thinking in the minds of the Sunni Muslims in India. The Wahabis are an extremely orthodox sect of Sunni Muslims. As per an Intelligence Bureau report, between 2011 and 2013 - Saudi Arabia sent Rs.1700 Cr to India through various sources & Wahabi preachers to conduct seminars in various parts of the country and use it to propagate the Wahabi style of Islam. In 2015, Saudi Arabia's King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud conferred the Arab country's most prestigious “Service to Islam” award on Naik. So what Service, was Naik providing to Islam (and Saudi Arabia) in India is now anybody’s guess. Naik is on the payroll of Saudi Arabia for performing religious conversions. Naik used to lure Hindus, Jains and members of other non-Islamic religions in India with money to make them convert to Islam.

But Congress can’t fool anybody by saying that it did not know that Zakir Naik would turn out to be "controversial hate preacher" in 2016 and hence they have returned the money they received in 2011 in July’2016. First, IRF has claimed that so far they have not received the retuned money. If Congress really wanted to return the money, in today’s E-Banking age, it doesn’t need 2 months to send back Rs.50 lacs. Second, why did Congress not return the money in 2012 itself when security agencies gave a negative report about Zakir Naik owned Peace TV. On 4th Dec’2012, the then Information and Broadcasting Minister Manish Tiwari gave a statement in Parliament that security agencies had identified 24 illegal foreign channels including Peace TV of Zakir Naik, whose content was objectionable and posed a potential security hazard to our nation.

Saudi Wahabi money travels to Congress - but for what? Congress and its supporters should introspect on how it has managed to attract huge donations and patronage from people with radical Islamic sympathies. This was also around the time various Congress leaders including General Secretaries and MPs were making pro-Islamic Jihad, pro Osama Bin Laden statements, opposed Batla House encounter etc. in press conferences. As recently as on 22nd July’2016, Congress leader Digvijaya Singh referred to Zakir Naik as a “messenger of peace” and accused Modi Govt of “relating” Islam to terrorism for investigating Naik & his NGOs track records. Is this not evidence enough that such donations were given as Congress was perceived as soft on letting Jihadi individuals and organizations like Zakir Naik go about their "business" without much scrutiny and to buy patronage & protection? So, can we now infer that Congees charged “professional fee” for its “pseudo-secularism”?

Warren Buffett, said that “it is only when the tide recedes do we know how many had been swimming naked”. After only two years of Modi-rule, the receding Congress-tide has exposed the one family that had been swimming naked for over 60 years. Foundations and Trusts in the name of charity are proxy fronts used by the Gandhis to siphon off illegal money including bribes and commissions from various scams. The Gandhi family has always maintained such unholy alliances and the Congress party is also infested with radical and criminal elements. It is no surprise that their funding comes from bribes, commissions and donations from shady individuals and organizations including Islamic Jihadi groups such as Zakir Naik’s.

The root cause of most of the problems India is facing since independence including Islamic Jihadi terrorism is Congress. Directly or indirectly Congress party has given patronage to anti-India , radical, inimical individuals & groups who are threat to India’s civilization, culture, heritage, integrity and security. Congress sold India to Islamic terrorists piece by piece. Its leaders like Shinde & Chidambaram coined the term Hindu Saffron Terror, Digvijaya Singh held Osama Ji & Hafeez Saheb in high esteem and termed Batla House encounter against Indian Mujahedeen as fake, Rahul Gandhi commented to US Ambassador that not Islamic Jihadi terrorism but Hindu extremists were the main threat to India, Mani Shankar Aiyar openly urged Pakistan while in Pakistani soil to help topple the Modi Govt. and help install Cong Govt for Pakistan’s interest, Salman Kurshid while in Pakistan lauded Sharif while slamming PM Modi for taking a tough stance against Pakistan for its cease fire violation and cross border terrorism in Jammu & Kashmir. Gandhi family and Congress would not hesitate to sell India to Wahabis & Jihadi terrorists even at a price. Congress party and it’s the then UPA home minister Chidambaram did everything to first kill Modi by LeT terrorists and then falsely implicate Modi in Ishrat Jehan encounter case, so that they don’t lose power and their un holy alliances with anti-India forces remain intact for money & power. Congress also sold “Freedom of Expression” & “Tolerance” limit to enemies of the nation and anti-nationals at certain prices. For Sonia Gandhi’s Congress "Desh Bada Na Bhaiya, Sabse Bada Rupaiya". This woman, her family and party have their fingers in every dirty deal in this country (as I am writing this another dirty deal in Embraer Aircrafts acquisition is tumbling out of the Congress’s cupboard). If Zakir Naik could pay Rs.50 lakh to the Rajiv Gandhi foundation, wonder how much Dawood Ibrahims, Hafiz Sayeeds, Yasin Bhatkals and the ISI would have paid to the corrupt Congress party over decades in power?

The alliance between Congress party/leaders and shady individuals/organizations including Zakir Naik’s require much intense and thorough probe to find out why Congress over decades always received donations, patronage and sympathy/support/vote from anti-Indian individuals & organizations.
