<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->I have repeatedly been drawing attention,for years now,about the GOI being lax when it comes to funding or certain so-called "Christian" evangelical movements .Tehelka in an issue a few years ago,drew atention to over 100 new "church" groups operating in the country,no part of mainstream Christian organisations who have been in existence for decades.Almost every group is US funded/supported and was according to the magazine part of the Bush Neo-con/CIA plot to destabilise India.Despite our size,we are a very fragile society,where illiteracy and ignorance amongst the poor can result in misunderstandings between communities and religions,leading to violent clashes.
The failure of various govts. at the centre and state in uplifting the poorest of the poor,makes them easy targets for any group that promises both social and economic upliftment.Do we not read daily about poor farmers committing suicide?Who can blame them if they turn to violence or are "bought" in order to survive? In certain states,thanks to the remnants of feudalism,these SC/STs have been ripe for the Naxalite movement,which has cut a swathe right from Nepal down to Kerala.3 years ago,a leading journalist of the country warned me about the threat,describing how the GOI's writ did not run in a vast number of districts in the country.This is similar to the NWFP states in Pak,the new state of "Terroristan".Journo Tavleen Singh years ago asked Gujral why no importance was being given to primary education in the country,by his govt. too, and his astonishing reply was that it was the policy of the various govts. since independence to keep the poor in ignorance for obvious reasons!
Who is to blame then?The politicos and administrators of the country definitely.They have become so corrupt,immoral,adept at maladministration and are behaving like extortionists.Just this morning,an industrialist friend told me about a certain very senior official who openly boasts about the amount of property the individual has.Not too long ago,it was a scandal when an IAS officer was found corrupt.What is the state of these officers of the "iron frame" today? The nexus between the administrators ,landgrabbers,developers,mining mafia and a sundry lot of goons,all intent upon enriching themselves at the expense of tribals by dispossessing them of their lands ,makes the country fertile ground for mischief makers both local and foreign.Any gangster of any fringe organisation is employed by these villains to obtain their goal.If we are to deal with Naxalites/Maoists,we must prevent them from recruiting from the poor.If the poor are not looked after,educated and employed/given the opportunity for gainful employment,this is just what will happen.What has happened in Nepal is a warning to us.
Unless the rule of law is strictly upheld impartially,the country will descend into further chaos and another revolution,far more dangerous to the survival of the country as an independent nation this time massively violent is on its way.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
