How little is a common Indian informed by our media about the history, traditions, culture and the plight of North East India!
Those recently "Padma-Sri" decorated brave Journalists, who cry their hearts out at the assassination of an India-hating Jehad-promoting woman of neihbouring enemy state, and send their converted journalists to report from that rotten country, do not even tell us about what is happening in the North East!
==========
Today (January 26) is Rani Gaidinliu's birth day, the great woman tribal Freedom Fighter from Nagaland, who was awarded life imprisonment by the British at the age of 16. She was given the 'Rani' title by Pt. Nehru and Indira Gandhi awarded her Tamra patra and Padma Bhushan.
None remembers her because she did politically incorrect thing by joining VHP in her later years. She helped Vanavasi Kalyan Ashram in Nagaland and strengthened Heraka movement of Naga youth to consolidate faith in Dharma amongst Nagas. A postal stamp was issued in her honour by A B Vajpayee govt. and an award for women's power was established in her name.
But nowhere in media and on secular/ govt. channels we heard anybody remembering her.

The Zeliangrong Heraka community paid rich tribute to Padma Bhushan Rani Gaidinliu, who had become a legend during her life time because of her freedom fight against British rulers and her deed for the preservation and protection of Naga identify. The function was held on the occasion of the 90th birth-anniversary of Rani Gaidinliu at Jalukie in Nagaland on January 26, 2006.
Speaking at the function as Chief Guest, Prof Gongmumei Kamei of Imphal said Rani Ma was the worst victim of slander spread by Christian missionaries. Rani Gaidinliu was also a victim of British colonial rule and mistrust of Christianised Nagas.
He narrated that Heraka is a pure and perfect religion and terming it as heathen and pagan by Christian missionaries is wrong and with malafide intention to demean it. This was also done to present Christianity as superior to Heraka religion, which is not true, he further said and added that prosecution of followers of Heraka and other indigenous religions of Nagas by NNC and NSCN(IM) is an injustice and it should stop now. Shri C.M. Chang, former Secretary to Government of Nagaland stated that after Independence, Rani Ma was exiled to isolation and complete confinement in Yimrup village of Tuensang far away from her Heraka people. Shri Chang said that she was of rare virtues, exceptionally courageous and fired with zeal for the welfare of Naga society.
At the end of the function, a peace march was organised on the roads of Jalukie, which was led by Prof Gongmumei Kamei himself and Heraka leaders. Above 500 delegates from 35 Heraka villages attended the function, which was conducted by Ku. Tasile Zeliang.
