  • Dravidian Parties Self Respect Movement A Fraud

    A whole generation lost its connect with the rest of India and overnight Tamil Nadu gained a name as a State populated by zealots, who hate Hindi, North Indians ,atheists, of loose morals, hooligans ,Hyperbole, intolerant of other Cultures and languages, Brahmin haters and baiters and shamelessly corrupt.

    How has this has befallen a Sate that had Great Tamil Kings, who built ageless Temples, very religious, followed the Sanatana Dharma. generous, had a rollicking relations with the rest of the world, not to speak of the North.

    They interacted with the north very closely from the Vedic Times and the Tamil Kings were present in the Swayamvars of Sita,Damayanti,and Draupadi.

    They participated in the Mahabharata War and one king had the honour of feeding both the Pandava and Kaurava Armies.

    Arjuna married a Pandya Princess.

    Dravidian Leaders?

    The Tamil literature enriched Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism.

    And the savants of these great Religions enriched Tamil by composing exquisite Poems of high standards.

    Tamil is believed to be personified in Lord Subramanya and Lord Siva is believed to have  presided over the First Tamil Meet of Poets in old Madurai.

    The Bhakti literature forms an essential part of Tamil .

    Take them away, you are left with a shell of a language.

    We had great contemporary personalities like Rajaji,Kamaraj, C.Subramanian, Alladi Krishnaswamy Iyer,Salem Vijayaraghavachariar,poet Subramania Bharathy.

    Brahmins contributed a lot to Tamil as a language and culture.

    If it was Agasthya, Tokappiyar and Nakkeran of the Sangam Age who enriched tamil, you had one U.Ve.Saminatha Iyer who hunted down the earliest tamil manuscripts, without which ancient Tamil Classical literature would not have seen the light of the Day.

    Rest of India used to be inspired by Tamil Nadu.

    Gandhi gave up wearing formal dress and started wearing his later attire of a cloth rolled around him in from Madurai where he was moved by the sight of a  a poor farmer not possessing even  a Dhoti.

    Swami Vivekananda meditated in Kanyakumari before embarking on to USA to address the gathering in Chicago on World religions.

    Rajaji was one man whom Gandhiji dreaded and respected him the, most and called him as  ‘My’ Conscience’

    Now what do we have?

    A family of corrupt and loose morals, looting Public Money to the tune of lakhs of crores in 2 G and other scams,begging for a seat in the cabinet for daughter and nephew in a tottering old age in a wheel chair.

    Ridiculing Hindus and their Customs, dropping the shawl before a temple before leaving home and picking it up as a mark of respect to the Deity near the home, conducting Poojas at Home.

    Celebrating dead people’s birth days, while ridiculing Krishna Jayanthi and Rama Navami,

    Praying in front of Samadhis on every occasion, declaring often Annadurai, MGR came in my dreams last night,

    Attacking Brahmins, surrounded by Brahmin Personal Physicians, Surgeons,Lawyers and CAs.

    Declaring that the North is thriving and the South is being deprived, separate Tamil Nadu is the solution and that they would die rather than giving up the demand for a separate Tamil Nadu, now they have come a full Circle.

    For the benefit of an entire generation , the youth and the Non Tamils I will be posting articles on this Myth of Tamilian, Dravidian, Aryan Brahmin Domination and the much touted Self Respect Movement,EVR , Annadurai,Karunanidhi with facts, especially from their lives , their works and contemporary records.

    I shall present facts, the reasons for the rise of this menace, the atrocities committed by this group , their double dealings, mostly from their own sources.

    These people know how to manipulate Media and only through this they came to power and to-day retain a conglomerate of  Television Channels in all South Indian Languages,(Look at their Tamil Love) naming them in the Chaste language of the State.

    Time people knew their History, nay their background and skullduggery.

  • Arvind Kejriwal Another Vijayakanth?

    Now the Elections results of Delhi,MP,Rajasthan,Chhattisgarh are out it is time to know what is happening in India.

    Congress is on the decline.

    BJP, despite its sincere effort

    Arvind Kejriwal.

    s to lose by infighting has made a come back.

    This is probably due to Shivraj Singh Chouhan in the State and Narendra Modi as the PM Candidate for BJP .

    But what stumped every one is Aam Aadmi Party‘s performance in Delhi.where it had secured 28 seats, pushing Congress to the third place. which has been ruling  for 15 years.

    Net result is none of the parties can form the Government and a spell of President’s Rule is likely for Delhi.

    Kejriwal has captured more seats in a year than the maverick Vijayakanth, Tamil Actor turned Politician of Tamil Nadu, in terms of the time frame to secure this much seats in an Assembly elections.

    Vijayakanth started off in a high note and idealism, but is marred by his Drinking Habits and unruly behaviour in Public, like beating his Election candidate in full Public view.

    Add this to the Regional politics of Tamil Nadu, where the DMK and the AIADMK hold the masses by sheer communication skills and money power.

    Kejriwal too ha started in a high note but faltered when he started accusing people in Pres Meets and his huffing and hawing to reply about the mismanagement of funds.

    Running for elections need money and one has to take funds from others, mainly from corporate.

    And we have entrenched parties , built over years consisting of corrupt politicians and more importantly their off spring and clan who wield spheres of influence.

    Add to this the bureaucracy , which has an interest in promoting wither the ruling party or the opposition which has been there for quite some years to aid abet their ways of corruption.

    Not to forget the fears fueled by Secularism, Religious non sense,regional and linguistic pressures and the well entrenched caste vote bank politics nurtured by the parties since independence.

    Kejriwal and Vijayakanth, though well-meaning seem to forget these ground realities.

    Even if they did they can no  less about it.

    Vijayakanth, as Kejriwall of now resisted the  alliance with the established parties, which are corrupt and are hated by people.

    But electoral arithmetic forced him to align with the AiADMK and win a spectacular entry into Tamil Nadu Assembly as Opposition Leader.

    But not understanding realpolitik and social issues went on playing to the gallery,without using the lunching pad as an Opposition leader in the Assembly.

    Net result, he is in the wilderness.

    Arvind Kejriwal reminds me of Vijayakanth of the past when he used to shun every party on the grounds of corruption.

    Forced by the ground reality and the party members who wanted to form a Government, earn money in the process, fell into the trap of Alliance politics.

    Let us hope Arvind does not fall into this trap.

    However the movement against Corruption and bad governance has well begun, it is the responsibility of the people like us, to aid Aam Aadmi Party, by not falling into free sops,non-existent issues in matters of Religion and region and create an atmosphere for his party to fight.

    There is likely to be uncertainty in the electoral results and the formation of Government.

    So be it.

    It will change.

    This is the Dance of Democracy.

    Wait, if you want to change.

    Rushing will create chaos and anarchy and worse entrench whom we want to throw out..

     

  • US Shuts Down What Happens

    US economy shuts down.
    US shuts down.

    I read a simple write-up on this from TIME.

    I am reproducing this with my comments.

    My comments.

    Nice write-up.

    Let’s see how this impacts the US so called non-essential services.

    Most of the things might probably be for the good like scientists  not scaring people of imagined diseases,

    State governments‘ relevance and their ability to exist independently of Washington will be high lighted

    Though some jobs will be lost ,the States may accommodate them.

    As things stand the Motto Private Industry sustains will be put to test.

    People say that this shut down will affect the World economy.

    Call the bluff.

    Like, what happens to firemen and policemen who get paid by the government? Will garbage men still come to pick up the stinky trash on your street? Will mommies and daddies who work for the government be in the mood to buy you new Legos? And what is a government shutdown anyway?

    A good way to think about the situation right now is this: the federal government runs on money like a car runs on gas. Lawmakers couldn’t agree on where to go or which route to take, so they ended up driving in circles and reading Dr. Seuss books to each other until they ran out of fuel. Some parts of the car will still operate without gas, but many won’t.

    If the government shuts down, the most important things will still get done. Soldiers and other members of the military who help protect America will still keep us safe. The Post Office will still deliver letters. Air traffic controllers will still help planes land safely at airports. And your old or disabled relatives who get things called “Social Security checks” will still have money for bingo.

    But many services will stop. The government won’t issue as many documents that allow foreign people to visit our country, poor people might not get food stamps to buy groceries, and governments scientists won’t be monitoring the spread of disease. Places that belong to the federal government, like national parks, will have to close during the shutdown. So that long car trip to Yosemite that your family was planning next weekend may be off.

    Many government workers, like public school teachers and firemen and police officers, are paid by local governments or state governments. If the federal government shuts down, it shouldn’t affect their jobs. You will still go to school (unless you’re part of a program like Head Start that depends on grant money from Washington). The policemen in your town will still look for bad guys and firemen will still put out fires. But many federal government employees won’t be going to work.

    There are two types of mommies and daddies who work for the federal government and might be affected by the shutdown: non-essential and essential workers. Essential workers are like the ice cream in a ice cream sundae; non-essential workers are like the toppings — great to have but not the most important ingredients. The toppings people will be told to stay home from work and may be grumpy because it’s unclear whether they will get paid; many may act like your uncle when he’s had too much “silly juice.” The ice cream people, like the President and members ofCongress, will still go to work.

    The government has shut down many times before, so don’t worry too much. One time in the year 1995, the federal government was closed for 21 days. Eventually lawmakers should come to a compromise that gets the car back on the road.

  • 5.PJP In conclave

    PJP, the Principled Jokers Party is seemingly the alternative to the Ruling Party at the Center.

    While the ruling party clings on one individuals’ tails in Ultimate surrender as Draupathi to Lord Krishna,the PJP is so Democratic, one does not know who the Leader is.

    It is principled, no doubt, but is marred by it’s another Principle of not sure of its own Principles; would trumpet its Principles while in Opposition ,in Power will do exactly the opposite.

    Its Economic Policy is the same as that of the ruling party.

    It will follow the same economic and social reforms like its principal opposition, but when in power follow what it opposed blatantly.

    It is controlled by a principled  group outside it, but this group, not familiar with Power Politics will do every thing in its power to ensure that the PJP does not come to power by its ill-timed decisions and backing the Right causes at  the wrong time and at the wrong place.

    All with good intentions, of course.

    The USP of PJP is that while the Opposition fights the election to win,this party will make sure it works over time to defeat a good leader, and in the process lose the election.

    Its Party executive Meetings are hilarious and free for all , each slinging mud at another.

    The Party always has ‘Think Tank‘ discussions’,never an ordinary Meetings.

    The decisions arrived at will generally be attacked  more by every one in the Party, than the other parties.

    The party has called for a Conclave,they always have exotic names for every one of their acts in Pune, Maharashtra.

  • 4.The Targets

    HC Continues,

    ‘ Now that we have taken care of  Tamil Nadu and Puducherry with a total of 40 seats, let’s see what we can in the other States.

    In UP, we have two bitter rivals fighting with each other.

    The opposition is gunning for the Government in Lucknow.

    Not that the Opposition is going to be soft on us.

    We are nowhere in the picture now for quite a few years there.

    Listen carefully.

    To the Rabble Rouser,

    ‘ you ask your trusted people in UP , ask them to form two groups.

    Each group must support one party, one the Opposition , another the the Government in UP.

    Ask them to rake up Public cases of Corruption against the Ruling Party and the Taj Corridor Case in the case of the Opposition, among the other charges.

    Make sure that the initial demand for reopening of cases come from the respective party against the other.

    Your group should join later and put up a show of demonstrating against the Central Government for enquiry and a Delegation to come to Delhi to meet me and the President.

    Remind them to drop at the PM’s Office.Turning to Basheer,

    ‘You open negotiations with both Parties simultaneously.

    Ask for sixty out of eighty seats, settle for about seventy.

    Then ask the groups in Andhra to join as rebels with two principal opposition Parties,one with the late CM‘s son and another with the separatists.

    Promise them both what they want apart from Cabinet Berths.

    Ask for 30 out of 41, settle for 28.

    In Bihar. open negotiations with the present CM.

    Tell him we keep the PM’s options open as we may get only a Coalition,we will form the Government with him as the PM candidate.

    But for political reasons, we may not make this Public, either now or during the Election Campaign.

    Negotiate and finalize for 28  seats.

    In Karnataka, settle an alliance with parties to whom we can give 10 seats.

    Those who ask for more inform them we will provide more seats in the State Elections.

    That’s 174 seats.

    We need about 280 to form Government on our own.

    So 106 more seats are needed.

    In Gujarat, no alliance,it will be a straight fight.

    No Alliance.

    I will tell you later how to handle him.

    I will make arrangement for these 106 seats myself.

    Now make sure that information is leaked to the Media that we are going to face the Elections on our own and through another source, preferably by a civil Servant that all pending Corruption Charges/case are being reopened , ask the CI Director to see me to-morrow at 7am.

    • 3.The Bofors Lane (ramanan50.wordpress.com)
    • The Taj Heritage Corridor case is an alleged scam wherein 2002–2003, the then Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Mayawati and a minister in her government, Nasimuddin Siddiqui, were charged with corruption. The Taj Corridor project was intended to upgrade tourist facilities near the Taj Mahal and was to be implemented during her tenure as Chief Minister. The then BJP government at the Centre gave the Environmental Clearance required for the project near Taj Mahal. However, later on the BJP backed out and then started saying that the project was not cleared by the Environment Ministry and blamed Mayawati for starting construction work near the Taj Mahal.[1]..
    • It has been alleged that Mayawati embezzled the money dedicated for this project. The case is currently under investigation by the Central Bureau of Investigation. Initially, the case saw some rapid progress, when CBI conducted extensive searches on her various addresses, and claimed that though she had claimed income of only Rs. 1.1 crores during her tenure as CM, her bank balance in a single bank went up to 2.5 crore and total assets held by her were estimated at Rs.15 crore. At one point a warrant was expected for her arrest, but she was granted a stay.[2][3]
    • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taj_corridor_case

    The Central Bureau of Investigation seems finally ready to give a reprieve to Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav and his chief minister sonAkhilesh Yadav in the disproportionate assets case after the monsoon session of Parliament.

    According to sources, the agency is likely to file a report in the Supreme Court informing that it has not found any evidence in the DA probe against the Yadavs. The court, sources said, would be informed about the closure after Parliament’s monsoon session concludes on September 6.
