RESERVATIONS DIVIDING INDIA

Dalits ready for caste war but OBCs still sleeping

GURNAM SINGH MUKTSAR, 2 - BHAGAT SINGH NAGAR, B/H BUS STAND, MUKTSAR - 152 026

Without any doubt, caste-based reservations will become the real foundation of Indian social revolution.

In 1715, East India Company provided reservation to Indians in education and lower posts. It produced 15 ICS Brahmins. In 1946-47, 90% official posts were bagged mainly by Brahmins and other upper castes. When India became “independent”, 90% Brahmin officials were there to rule India. The miracle of Brahmin rule was the result of reservation in posts and admission to educational institutions provided by the British Govt. Brahmins were the principal beneficiaries of British reservation system.

As against this, Shahu Maharaj provided 50% reservation to Backward Castes in 1902 against which Brahmin Bal Gangadhar Tilak launched a direct war.

However, reservation policy under the leadership of Babasaheb Ambedkar took a new shape in 1932 when a British PM with a good heart provided reservations to SC/STs in education, employment and elected offices. The Constitution of India on Jan.26, 1950 provided 25% reservation to SC/STs.

It is all due to Dalit struggle. OBCs (Backward Castes) are getting some reservation through the Mandal Commission though the BCs fought against the Mandal Commission. When Arjun Singh again has talked of OBC reservation, upper castes are opposing. That means the maha layaks (meritwalas) have launched a war against the maha nalayaks (brainless OBCs). But it is again the Dalits who are getting ready to hit back maha layaks.

The OBCs are silent. They may not come this time also to fight the upper castes. But every Dalit (educated or not) is getting ready to fight a street battle against the maha layak bogus meritwalas.

In reality, this is not a war for and against reservations. This is a socio-cultural war between upper castes and the “low castes”, between the 15% savarnas (racists) and the 85% avarnas — dark-skinned Dravidas, between the haves and the havenots, between the rulers and the ruled, between the Aryan invaders and the indigenous.

India is going to be divided into two major socio-political groups — pro-reservation vs. anti-reservation group. Such a divide will also kill many political parties. Every party will split into two groups. The war will help unite the SC/ST and OBC people. Muslim, Christian and Budhist groups will also join. But the upper castes (Hindus) and upper caste Sikhs and upper caste Christians will openly declare war against our people.

Within the next 15 years, India will get divided into two enemy camps on the reservation lines. Ultimately it will be a revolution paving way for socio-political, socio-cultural, socio-economic change in India. SC/ST/OBC and Muslim/Christian/Budhists must jump into this war.

DV is beating the war drums to wake up our people.

Reconstruct Indian history

A.H. SALUNKHE, “LOKAYAT”, NO-13 -YESHWANT NAGAR, GENDAMAL, SATARA - 415 002

My Marathi book, Balivamsh, is about King Bali and his forefathers as well as the generations that followed him. Bali is one of the greatest figures of ancient India and particularly of Indian masses that have loved and honoured him through the ages. He was a great believer in justice and equality. Throughout his life, he fought against Brahminical injustice, without caring for his wealth, kingdom or even his life.

The book (2005, 448 pages) has 11 chapters along with a list over 500 references. The first chapter of the book is introductory. The point is one may read the myths in Brahminical literature but should never accept the Brahminical interpretation of them. We can find our social and cultural history in those myths if we interpret them with our own free intellect.

Asuras owned India: The next two chapters deal with the cultural conflict in ancient India. The so-called devas, asuras, rakshasas etc. were human beings. The asuras were the real owners of this land and they had created a great human culture. The devas deceitfully defeated them, destroyed their cities etc. and captured their land. The sovereign kings like Shambar, Namuchi, Vritra etc. were mercilessly killed. Even the meanings of the words like asura (having asu or great power), das (giver of donations, a great king) were changed and shades of insult, despise etc. were added to their original meanings.

The fourth chapter deals with wars fought, for protecting freedom, by the forefathers of Bali. Hiranyaksh, Hiranyakashipu, Prahlad, Virochan and Kapil are the main figures that are dealt with here. Most of them sacrificed their lives. The worst thing that hurts us is their character- assassination by the Brahminical writers. Prahlad, the grandfather of Bali, was also killed by the devas, but he was shown as a devotee of the devas. Virochan and Kapil were great philosophers. Virochan propounded the Charvaka philosophy and Kapil gave birth to the Sankhya philosophy. The latter was gradually Brahminised.

Why Bali was killed: The sixth chapter describes Bali as ‘a beloved person who should be preserved by us in the heart of our seven hearts.’ The Brahmins try to justify his killing by telling that he hated the Brahmins. But, in fact, Bali did not hate the Brahmins and gave equal opportunity to them also. On the contrary, he himself was hated by the Brahmins because he was not ready to give them special privileges, which could dominate and enslave the masses. A number of rules from the Brahminical scriptures are discussed here.

The next chapter deals with the real meaning of the three footsteps of Vamana. Yajna (sacrifice), veda and language are the three footsteps. It is with these instruments that the Brahmins defeated the Indian masses.

The seventh chapter deals with the history of Vrinda and Jalandhar along with Bali’s son Ban. The next chapter deals with some of the books, persons etc. who entertained thoughts similar to those of Bali.

South India hated: The ninth chapter deals with a different subject. The vedic people described the southern direction as inauspicious because the southern states like Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Maharashtra respected Bali etc.

The tenth chapter deals with some major reasons for the repeated defeats of the masses. Mental slavery is one of the main reasons.

The concluding 11th chapter discusses that we, the Indian masses, must reconstruct our historical heritage, free ourselves from all types of slavery and lead a free, bright, brilliant, prosperous and healthy life.

Forgotten cultural revolution

Brother A.H. Salunkhe, the philosopher of Maharashtra’s emerging Shiva Dharma movement — a Marath religious revolt against Brahminism — makes a very important point in his latest Marathi book, Balivamsha. The book has to be done in Hindi and English to get the widest attention in this vast intellectual desert called India. Translating a Marathi book into Hindi is not difficult as the script is the same. Salunkhe deals with the most important subject of cultural revolution which is the need of the hour. But the leadership of the enslaved Bahujans is running after the elusive political power brainwashed by their very Brahminical slave owners. In two tiny books — Aggression on Indian Culture and Grave Diggers of History (DSA-2001)— we had dealt with the same subject five years ago but the victims of Brahminism did not take it seriously. Brahminical poison injected into their veins has brought thinking itself to a standstill. If this is the position among the Dalits —the country’s most revolutionary section — how can we expect the Marathas, the ruling caste of Maharashtra, to heed the warnings of Salunkhe? DV will be ready to serialise the Balivamsha book if an authentic translation is presented to us — EDITOR.

Killing Dalit in HP Narmedh yagya

S.C. MUSAFIR,NATIONAL INSURANCE CO. LTD., PALAMPUR, KANGRA DT. - 176 061

Narmedh yagya (human sacrifice) is still being performed in Himachal Pradesh. A Beira caste man (Dalit) is slected every time by the Brahmin priests.

On Dec.25, 2005 the yagya was performed at Rorhu (Shimla dt.) which is the constituency of HP Chief Minister Virbhadra. India’s Brahminical media had given so much publicity to this heinous act praising it as a great religious event and part of their Hindu culture.

Before 1971, HP was part of Punjab. The Punjab Govt. had banned this ritual in 1962. Brahmins forced the HP Govt. to remove the ban. Virbhadra belongs to the royal family and son of Raja Padhma. The priests call a Beira into the temple and ask him to prepare a long grass rope. This takes three or four months. During this period nobody can meet him, not even his family members. The priests then order him to tie one end of the rope with the khunta tied to the top of valley and other end to the bottom. A day before the narmedh the priests tour the village. Hundreds of animals are slaughtered to celebrate the visit of the priests. Wine and meat are served to Brahmins.

But these crooked fellows call themselves pure vegetarian and denounce non-veg in the name of their religion. But here they drink and eat meat. This is Hinduism.

The priests finally call the Beira to temple and give him bath, make him worship their god Parshuram, put a crown of panchratna on his head. Finally, he is given a coffin and ask him to carry it to the top of the hill. He is made to sit on the rope and then given a big push. His wife is asked to pray to save her husband’s life. The length of the rope is about 3 kms. The govt. has forced the Brahmins to shorten the rope and also put a net under the rope to save the life of the Beira. Thousands of people watch this celebration.

When the Beira finally falls at the bottom before his wife, the Brahmins with swords hit the panchratna crown of the Beira. If he remains alive, they bring him into the temple with his wife who then will dress like a bride. The Brahminical media shows this live on their TV. Brahmins tell him that if he survives at the 19th attempt, he will be treated as Brahmin. But this never happened. No Beira caste man lived to become Brahmin in the history of Narmedh Yagya. The Beiras never performed the yagya on their free will but forced by Brahmins. We call upon DV family members to protest and demand a ban on this human sacrifice in the name of Hinduism.

3% Brahmins rule India like 3% Jews in USA

BRIG. (R) USMAN KHALID, DIRECTOR, LONDON INSITUTE OF SOUTH ASIA, LONDON, U.K.

Clear thinking is the hallmark of great leaders. It was Sir Syed Ahmed Khan who said it was not the British but the Hindu who were the principal enemy of the Muslims. In consequence, the Muslims started to get education and apply for government jobs. It equipped them for the fight on two fronts, the departing imperial power of Britain, and the “want to be imperial power” of Brahmanism. (I prefer to use the word Brahmanism in preference to Hinduism because this faith is founded on the idea that people are unequal by birth and the Brahmins are superior). Since the Bahujan (native peoples of India) are the majority in India and Dalits are surely not Hindu, calling all of them Hindu is to endorse Hindutva — the religious doctrine of VHP and the political doctrine of BJP.

M.A. Jinnah became the Quid e Azam of the Muslims as he displayed the same clarity of vision when the World War-II started. While the Hindus started the Quit India Movement he agreed to support the British war effort. The result was that even though the population of the Muslims in British India was 25% the number of Muslim soldiers in the British Indian Army rose to 56%. Among the non-Muslims, the Sikhs accounted for the largest segment even though they were only 2% of the population. The result was a huge shift in the focus of politics and of power. The Muslims got military training, saw the world and got a huge boost in self confidence. The transformation of the Punjab and the NWFP - the land of the ‘martial races’- was huge. Nothing could stop Pakistan after that.

I see that the VHP/BJP propaganda is now being carried out on Sindhi E Groups. We should resist being confused. India is ruled by Brahmanism even though Brahmins are only 3% of the population of India —the same way as 3% Jews rule the USA. We know our enemy as clearly as our Quaid e Azam did. Brahmanism — an anti-human and anti-reason cult — is the enemy of not just the Muslims but also of the Sikhs, Dalits, Tribals and Other Backward castes (OBCs). It is because of Jinnah’s clear vision that Muslims are sovereign in Pakistan and Bangladesh today. It is by learning from his example that the Sikhs, tribals of Assam, and other nations in South India would secure sovereignty and freedom.

Pramod : A model for vaidik world

COMRADE AYYANKALI

Congratulations. DV is India’s only paper to boldly publish the shocking truth, “Manuwadi media & Pramod Mahajan” (DV May 16, 2006 p.21), reported by me

The great BJP hero ,Pramod Mahajan, was shot because he had affairs with his own brother’s wife. This was indirectly referred in Sujata Anandan’s column in the Hindustan Times, Bombay. Pramod personally chose brother Pravin’s wife when he noticed her at a college festival.The Brahminical corrupt media will never publish this story because those who run it have also been supplied with film actresses by Pramod Mahajan.

Not only that. He was the one who used to collect thousands of crores for party funds from the Bania capitalist scum who run the major media enterprises in India. Of course, Pramod ensured that his Brahmana Jati Party made policy decisions to suit these corrupt businessmen. Naturally they won’t like anything about him coming out in print or TV. These whore-journalists working for such sleazy capitalist scum also love Pramod who also worked as a “supplier” to A.B. Vajpayee. He was close to all industrialists and businessmen who have a lot to hide. That is how Mrs. Shivani Bhatnagar case is also suppressed. But none of this will ever come out. Even if it comes out nobody is bothered. Vaidiks want to make him a celebrity, worship and emulate him. He might even become a role model. Pramod represents the cream of today’s fascist upper caste youth. God save this country from such a youth and the media that lionises them. Pramod Mahajan’s real life story can be a fantastic plot for a Hindi film. Almost all the heroes and gods worshipped by the Brahminical people belong to the category of Pramod Mahajan. Read Dr. Ambedkar’s Riddle of Rama & Krishna (DSA-1995).

The notorious Kanchi Shankarachari involved in a series of sex scandals, murders and corruption continues to be the “living god” for the vaidik vultures. Respect and reverence goes with jati. Your “caste identity” thesis cannot get a better defence than the Brahmin love for their jati. Under Hinduism or Brahminism respect and reverence goes with caste.

LETTERS TO EDITOR

Prof. Alif-ud-Din Turabi, Chief Editor, KIC, Post Box - 2292, Islamabad -4400, Pakistan: We are making a programme to invite you. I am a great admirer of Dalit Voice, especially its heroic struggle against the so-called upper castes and have translated a number of your articles in Arabic which have been published in our Arabic magazine, Kashmir-ul-Muslima. I have also written a book about Hinduism in Arabic language. Similarly I am a great admirer of your Dali-Muslim unity movement for which Dalit Voice has been struggling for the last so many years. I consider it the only way to liberate India from the clutches of the upper castes. But at the same time I have been so much surprised even shocked to find an article in DV (Dec.16, 2005) written by Dr. (Mrs.) Ajeet Jawed under the title, “Jinnah never wanted Pakistan”. I have read the article thoroughly and I consider it a conspiracy of the upper castes against the noble cause of Dalit-Muslim unity.
