The nuclear capability in
South Asia presumably for peaceful purposes has led to Indian
chauvinism and consequently violation of Human Rights.
According to their
constitution India is a secular country where all men have equal
rights, but some men are more equal than the others are. Hindus being
preponderant in number, man the streets of power from top to bottom
and are active participants in the violation of Human Rights in a
country claiming to be one of the largest democracy of the world.
India is inhabited not
only by their original inhabitants hailing their descent from
dravidians and aryans but also hordes of invaders and immigrants.
India’s vast expanse of land and wealth attracted the Muslim
invaders and the Christian traders who have ruled this country for
thousands of years. Thus a homogenous population, culture and religion
has developed. There have been Buddhists who have been driven out to
the Far East, Muslims ruled for 800 years and Christians came into
rule for 200 years.
It is after the advent of
the British rule and the British policies of dived and rule in India
that the violations of Human Rights have began. Hindus felt a sense of
separation from the rest of the populace inhabiting this country.
Musalmans have been the main target and are the main target even
today. While doing this the political parties fanning this hatred
forget that the Muslim Emperor of India, Jahangir was born of a Hindu
mother, Jodha Bai, sister of Man Singh the celebrated Revenue Minister
of Shahenshah Akbar. Communal rights between Hindus and Musalmans have
the order of the day since the downfall of the Mughal Empire and the
advent of the British rule.
Things do not stop here,
the narrow minded policies of the communal organizations like
Rashtriya Soyem Sevak Sangh (RSSS) and Vishwa Hindu Parishad and many
others have adopted this slogan, India for Hindus only, this slogan
has even effected the so-called secular political parties. Their sole
aim is to capture power, irrespective of India’s constitution and
image in the comity of nations of the world.
Things do not end here, in
their bid for India for Hindus, the communal organisations on whose
crest the present Indian government rides have now entered into a
policy of extermination of Christians also. Burning of Churches and
massacre of Christians in Orrisa and Jaipur and many other places
should serve as an eye opener for the world.
Violation of Human Right
is a matter of daily routine in Kashmir. In this unfortunate land of
disputed sovereignty, violation of Human Right is a small word, it is
genocide. How long the world conscience is going to dance attendance
to the vested interest of the super power; they have to stand at the
bar of history not today, surely tomorrow and thereafter. Kashmir is
bound to be Independent, some time some day.
The electronic media
should also bring to light the violation of Human Rights being
committed by India in the small yet peaceful Kingdom of Nepal, whose
only fault is that its border touches the borders of India, this
state although is a Hindu state but still is suffering from Indian
Chauvinism.
Rights and duties are
mingled with each other, and one’s right is a duty for the other.
So an act bereft of honesty, truthfulness and sincerity will always
lead to the infringement of violation of right of the other.
The news is that Mr.
Hashim Qureshi, the celebrated stooge of India in Ganga Hijacking
drama is coming back to India to more acts of violations of Human
Right because he has been the hero of events which led to the
Indo-Pakistan war in 1971 and consequently dismemberment of
Pakistan. War itself is a violation of Human Right. If every nation
and every state have regard of the Human Right, there would never be
a war and world would be a peaceful place to live in. Let the
civilized nations realize this fact and the thinking intelligentsia
to ponder on it boldly bereft of any political, regional or
religious expediency.
