From England - With Love
Legal Virginity Tests for all India Women entering England - with
love from Britain
By POI Staff
What we see here is the total failure of civility and break down of
administration because of spine less leaders and administrators who
worry more about their jobs and political power than any values.
Total inhuman aboriginal treatment of women of all ages for more
than 4 years went un reported under the pretext of law. This
incident happened when women prime ministers were ruling in the
world right under their supervision to their subjects. Dozens of
concerned news papers television channels reported this incident all
across Europe but none in India ever made a passing mention of the
incident. The reason the wire networks that `sell' their news to
Indian counter parts felt the it was inappropriate to tell Indians
about the incident. The media dons of India be it English or Local
never cared to collect this news and felt worthy reporting it.
Probably they might never knew or they thought it is not wroth the
space. Hundreds of embassy/high commission staff including high
commissioners never felt worth mentioning the issue to the people of
India lest we loose respect towards English babus.
The incident never occurred when east india companies were ruling.
Nor it is not the time when English collectors regularly ordered
molestation and rape of Indian women to get their freedom fighting
husbands or to scare away Indian kings from attacking British
soldiers. Nor any disgruntled would be mother in law ordered this.
But it is the British who `humanitarian grounds' banned
the `barbaric practice of sati' did some thing special.
This special of `with love from England to Indian women' was a
heinous act law passed under immigration law and implemented for
full three years from 1979-1982 when Ms. Margaret Thatcher a `noble
woman and iron lady' was prime minister of England and
another `noble lady Queen Elizabeth' was head of the state of
England. This law simply demanded virginity tests for all Indian and
black African women upon their entry in Heathrow International
Airport. Many in India feels that England constitution is based
on `case laws' rest of the countries were written. But this law like
the banishment of the Jews from England enacted under British
parliament during the years 1200-1300 is completely racist,
discriminatory, and biased against women and shows total dis respect
towards the modesty and chastity of women.
According to this law/act in order to stem illegal immigration
British figured out that all women coming from India need to be
done `Virginity Tests'. During the above said period hundreds of
thousands of Indian women were forced to undergo compulsory
virginity tests under British male doctors if they want to enter
England on any visa even on tourist visas. This was not told to them
when they got visa in India for England. It was told to them in the
airport when they landed there.
The rationale for tests served two purposes. First to determine
whether an women applicant entering in England on tourist visa will
go back to India or not after tourist visa duration expires. In
order to determine this they `scientifically figured out' that if a
women is a `virgin' she will by hook or crook stay in England and
marry some body to get permanent residency. But if a women is not
a `virgin' then she will go back.
The second purpose that this tests served was to determine the bride
status of any Indian women entering England. If a woman is coming to
England to marry any England born/residing non resident Indian then
she has to be `virgin'. If she is not `virgin' then the marriage is
not genuine and the woman is faking the marriage to illegally reside
in England.
In the 1979, Home Secretary, Merlyn Rees, forced Hindu fiancées to
undergo medical examination to see if each were a "bona fide
virgin". Male doctors performed virginity tests on women entering
Britain from India to marry Asian British nationals or residents. If
a woman was not "virgo intacto", immigration officers assumed she
was not a "bona fide" fiancée. The Guardian 1/02/1979.
The reason for such practices was given by the Home Secretary of
current prime minister Tony Blair, David Blunkett believes he speaks
for "the majority". According to him, his is the voice of the
voiceless white working class frustrated by crime and illegal
economic migrants masquerading as asylum seekers (The Guardian
30/09/03). A Guardian editorial describes him as being "proud of his
working-class roots and more than ready to represent poor,
marginalized white people" (The Guardian 7/09/02).
Though this practice continued for more than three years none in
India were ever aware of this practice. Neither the nationalists who
raise hue and cry that Indian women were raped by terrorists nor the
secularists who fire at will that minority women were molested by
nationalists never ever uttered a word about this practice. Worst
none of the women who underwent this heinous crime committed against
them never reported or even if reported never taken seriously.
Today this practice is discontinued but not banned like the
banishment of Jews from England because of many British women
protested this crime. But we still think that Britain is the only
country that can offer solution for India's problems and will make
India Shine as they did under East India Companies.
Is Immigration the problem or any other sinister motive behind the
virginity tests ?
According to a study that examined the sex lives of 12,000
adolescents, conducted by Peter Bearman, the chair of Columbia
University's Department of Sociology, who co-authored with Hannah
Bruckner of Yale University, found the following
Pledger: Who took a vow that he will not have sex until marriage
Non-Pledger-Who never took a vow that he will not have sex until
marriage
99 percent of non-pledgers and 88 percent of pledgers have sex
before marriage.
28 percent of female non-pledgers were tested for STDs in the
previous year, compared to 14 percent of female pledgers.
41 percent of the male non-pledgers tested positive for STDs and 60
percent of the male pledgers tested positive for STDs.
Given this glorious statistics in America and England did the
immigration officials any DNA tissues from the hundreds of thousands
of STD free Indian women for medical purposes or for developing
vaccination purposes or for growing such cultures in the labs to be
used later for virology experiments of either civilian or military
vaccination purposes ? Only time will answer this.
