Mr. R.V. Bhasin, a Supreme Court Lawyer, residing in Mumbai, had written a Book "Islam - A Concept of Political World Invasion by Muslims". A group of about 20 Muslims made a representation to the CM of Maharashtra, in March 2007, and the book was banned. The police raided his office and confiscated about 1000 copies of the book. At that time, I sent this msg to many newspapers, but no one bothered to publish it or follow it up. May be because a Hindu was the victim.
<b>Mr. Bhasin subsequently filed a PIL in the Mumbai High Court challenging the legality of the ban order and confiscation of the book.</b> The case is being heard in the Mumbai High Court.
Three Muslims organisations - Jamait-a-Hind, Muslims Lawyers Forum and (another one whose name I do not remember) have got implicated in the case against Mr. Bhasin. Mr. Bhasin was himself arguing his case. When he read verses from the Quran to prove his point, the Court was taken aback. The Judge and the Lawyers assembled were surprised at the revelation. This has infuriated the Muslims. Every day during arguments, about 20-25 Muslim Lawyers used to gather at the Court Room, to bring moral and metal pressure both on Mr. Bhasin and the Court. Unfortunately, Mr. Bhasin is assisted by only one lawyer and therefore they are weak in numerical strength and feel isolated. This has demoralised Mr. Bhasin, as the menacing Muslims may snatch victory by their numerical strength.
When I heared of this case coming up for hearing, I talked to Mr. Bhasin on phone. He was a bit demoralised as he feels as though he is fighting alone for a Hindu cause. He feels let down by the Hindu society.
<b>Mr. Bhasin needs the help of Hindus and Hindu Lawyers to be with him at the time of arguments</b>, so that it acts as a moral booster for Mr. Bhasin. He needs the moral support of Hindus. Interested Hindus, especially Hindu lawyers, may get in touch with him at his tel. no. 022-22045054, 22845004. He resides in Colaba, Mumbai. I appeal to Hindus all over the world who know some Hindu lawyers in Mumbai to kindly inform him/them, so that they lend moral support to Mr. Bhasin.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Calcutt...n_Petition for a review of The Calcutta Quran Petition and bring it to the attention of Sri Bhasin in Mumbai. The book is available from Voice of India at <contact@bibliaimpex.com>
We all fight alone with little money or facilities or publicity. We do it not to win but because it has to be done for Dharma. The fact that the book has been written and the petition has been brought to court is a success already. Sri Bhasin should not feel downhearted. A public record has been created and that is very important for future issues. As Koenraad Elst has said, one day the world's historians will look at the extraordinary anti-Hindu duplicity and prejudice at work in India today and write volumes about it. But that does not help us today.
We need a national legal team of dedicated lawyers to take up cases like this. These cases should not have to be fought by individuals but by full time legal teams representing Hindu interests only. We expect support, at least moral support, from outfits like the VHP or RSS. But we never get it. I know this from personal experience. They have their own agendas. This is why we need to create a national legal association like the Jewish Defence League in the US that has a variety of departments to deal with public and private Hindu concerns.
We wish Sr Bhasin all success in his fight for Truth.
