Third phase polls: Moderate to brisk polling

30 Apr 2009, 1411 hrs IST, AGENCIES

NEW DELHI: The stars trooped out and so did villagers on Thursday as millions of poor and the affluent voted in the third leg of India's general elections that even veteran politicians admitted was destined to give the country another coalition government. 

Voters queued up outside some 165,000 polling centres in 107 Lok Sabha seats spread across nine states and two union territories in a 10-hour exercise, during which both the ruling Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) claimed they would finish on top of a fractured house. 

A whopping 144 million voters -- of the country's total 714 million -- are eligible to vote on Thursday. 

Congress president Sonia Gandhi and BJP prime ministerial candidate LK Advani are among the 1,567 candidates contesting in the third round of polling that will wrap up 372 Lok Sabha seats, leaving two more rounds to go May 7 and 13. The millions of votes will be counted May 16. 

Other notable candidates are former prime minister HD Deve Gowda of the Janata Dal-Secular (JD-S), Sharad Yadav of the Janata Dal-United (JD-U), Communist Party of India's Gurudas Dasgupta and former external affairs minister Jaswant Singh of the BJP. 

Even as men and women stood in winding queues in urban and rural areas, overseen by armed security personnel, M Venkaiah Naidu of the BJP and Jayanti Natarajan of the Congress admitted that no single party would get a majority in the Lok Sabha. 

"It is going to be a coalition. It is very clear," Naidu said after five hours of voting, echoing a point made by all political pundits even before campaigning got underway in March. 

But that did not prevent Advani from claiming that the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) was confident of ending five years of governance by the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA). 

"I am sure the BJP will emerge as the single largest party and NDA as the biggest coalition in the Lok Sabha will form the government," he said after voting at Shahpur in Gujarat's Ahmedabad (West) constituency. 

One of India's most experienced parliamentarians, Advani also sought an amendment in the constitution so that the Lok Sabha and state assemblies do not get dissolved before five years. 

Sonia Gandhi, who is also the UPA chairperson, is contesting from Rae Bareli in Uttar Pradesh. 

The third round of polling covers the whole or part of Bihar, Gujarat, Jammu and Kashmir, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Sikkim, West Bengal, Dadar and Nagar Haveli, and Daman and Diu. 

Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) president and Uttar Pradesh chief minister Mayawati was among the first voters in Lucknow, the state capital, and she claimed her party would bag most of the state's 80 Lok Sabha seats. 

"I have begun my day with voting, which I have always felt is everyone's prime duty," she said. 

Bollywood stars and industrialists turned out in large numbers to vote in Mumbai, India's movie and financial capital. 

Early voters in Mumbai's Bandra constituency included Sonam Kapoor, Rahul Bose, Sushma Reddy, Amrita Rao, Sonali Bendre, Aamir Khan and several television stars. Ace criminal lawyer Mahesh Jethmalani voted in Mumbai's North-Central Lok Sabha seat. 

In stark contrast to Mumbai's glamour and glitz, scores of impoverished tribals voted in Palghar, barely 100 km away. 

"We appeal to voters to come out and vote in large numbers," Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray said in Mumbai. "If we don't vote today, we will regret it for five years." 

Peaceful, but low voting for Kashmir's Anantnag seat 

Polling began on a dull note but picked up in Anantnag in the Kashmir Valley to reach almost 12 percent till 11am., notwithstanding a boycott call given by the separatist Hurriyat Conference. The separatists have called for a 50-hour strike to coincide with the polls. 

Nine injured in poll violence in Bihar, 20 per cent polling 

Nine persons, including three policemen, were on Thursday injured in separate clashes in Bihar where an estimated 18 to 20 per cent voters cast their ballot till noon in 11 parliamentary seats. 

Police opened fire to quell supporters of two rival candidates, who clashed and indulged in heavy stone-throwing, at a booth at Mongra in Katihar constituency, superintendent of police A K Yadav said. 

Three policemen were injured in the clash which was triggered by a quarrel over queueing up before a booth, the SP said. 

In a separate incident, six persons were injured, two of them seriously, as police used batons when supporters of a candidate clashed with poll personnel following a dispute over photo identity cards at booth number 95 under Baisi block in Kishanganj constituency, sources said. 

Two bombs were found from booth numbers 95 and 98 in Begusarai Lok Sabha constituency, but they were soon defused, official sources said. 


State election office sources quoting figures available till 12:30 pm, said around 18 to 20 per cent voters cast their votes in the constituencies of Supaul, Madhepura, Purnia, Khagaria, Begusarai, Banka, Araria, Munger, Katihar, Kishanganj and Bhagalpur. 
Moderate polling in UP 

Nearly 16 per cent voters exercised their franchise in the first four hours of polling in 15 constituencies of Uttar Pradesh today. 

"Till 11am 15.79 per cent polling was registered in 15 parliamentary constituencies. The polling has been peaceful so far," election department officials here said. 

Acute heat wave conditions sweeping large parts of the state has been attributed by election officials as the reason for the low turnout. 

Almost 2.23 crore voters are expected to exercise their franchise to decide the fate of 256 candidates in 15 seats spread over 16 districts of the state. 

WB registers 25 to 30 per cent polling 

An average 25 to 30 per cent polling was recorded till 11:00am in the 14 Lok Sabha seats that went to polls in West Bengal, where poor turnout was reported from troubled Lalgarh in the Jhargram (ST) seat in West Midnapore district on Thursday. 

Among the districts, Malda and Cooch Behar recorded 30 per cent polling, followed by 20 per cent in Bankura, 18 per cent in Balurghat, 15 per cent each in Jalpaiguri and Purulia, and 11 per cent in West Midnapore where Lalgarh is situated. 

In Darjeeling, the hills recorded a turnout of 15 per cent and the plains 8 to 9 per cent. 

In Lalgarh where 40 booths were shifted out of villages after locals prevented police from entering the area, only one or two voters turned out at many booths. 

Around 20 percent voting in first four hours in Karnataka 

Around 20 per cent of estimated 15.5 million eligible voters had cast their ballots in the first four hours of polling in 11 Lok Sabha constituencies in Karnataka, officials said. 

Polling has been brisk in the constituencies of Dharwad, Haveri, Bagalkot, Dakshina Kannada, Udupi-Chikmagalur, Shimoga and Davangere with 20 to 25 percent voter turnout. 

"It has been dull so far in southern constituencies of Hassan, Mysore, Mandya and Chamarajnagar," state election authorities said. 

Balloting began at 7am in 18,452 booths in the second and final phase of Lok Sabha polls in the state. 

Among the early voters were Janata Dal-Secular president and former prime minister HD Deve Gowda in Hassan, Kannada film star MH Ambareesh of Congress in Mandya, former central minister B Janardhana Poojary of Congress in Dakshina Kannada, Chief Minister BS Yeddyurappa and his son and Bharatiya Janata Party nominee BY Raghavendra in Shimoga. 

The first phase of polling took place in 17 constituencies April 23. 

The poll panel has made elaborate arrangements to ensure smooth voting through 21,610 electronic voting machines (EVMs). More than 2,700 video recorders and digital cameras will record the voting process, added the official. 

Around 55,000 security personnel have been deployed to maintain law and order. 

More than 50,000 poll officials are on duty with over 5,600 micro-observers to ensure fair election. 

In three constituencies, Shimoga, Dakshina Kannada and Udupi-Chikmagalur, women voters outnumber men. 

The number of women voters in Shimoga is 701,605 and there are 696,774 male voters; in Udupi-Chikmagalur there are 618,990 women and 584,860 men registered, while in Dakshina Kannada, there are 675,002 women and 658,174 men voters.

Shoe hurling culture











Human beings are different from other animals, particularly in psychological aspects. The Wild animals show their discontent only through violent ways like attacking; barking. We can observe some nonviolent aspects in pet animals. They show their discontent some times not obeying the command of their master. But human beings are rational animals. They show their discontent and dissatisfaction in many ways. They continuously are changing their activities suitable to the present environment. Now days there are many incidents where people showed their grievances by throwing their shoes. Is this a new culture or, adopted from past? In logic and psychology it is believed that all the knowledge is posterior.
Just go back to the past and remember the shoe hurling incidents which shook the whole world.
1) An Iraqi journalist Muthathar al Zaidi threw his shoes at President Bush on 14 December 2008, during a joint news conference Bush was holding with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al Maliki to mark the signing of a U.S.-Iraq security agreement:

2) On February 02, 2009 the Chinese premier Wen Jiabao targeted at London. A protestor threw a shoe at Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao interrupting his speech at the Cambridge University in London. The shoe thrown by a ‘young Western-looking man’ missed by a few feet the Chinese leader, whose visit to London has been marred by pro-Tibetan protests.

3) On march 21, 2009, An incident occurred on Friday when a case pertaining to a music school in Mumbai was in progress. There were seven people from the school who were presented in front of the judge and suddenly one of them hurled a slipper at the Judge. The target was Justice Arijit Pasayat, though Justice Asok Kumar Ganguly was also present.

4) On 8th april, 2009, A Sikh journalist, Jarnail Singh, on Tuesday flung a shoe at Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram in protest against the Congress party’s decision to field Jagdish Tytler and Sajjan Kumar — accused in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots case — for the Lok Sabha elections.

5) On 16th April, 2009 The BJP’s Prime ministerial candidate L.K Advani had a slipper hurled at him. The incident occurred while Advani was at an election rally in Katni in Madhya Pradesh. The man who hurled the slipper has been identified as Pravas Agrawal, a former functionary of state BJP party. His discontent was that he was denied a party ticket for MP.

6) On April 10, 2009, Congress MP Navin Jindal has been made the target by a former teacher in his own Kurukhetra constituency. Ram Kumar, a retired school principal, however, missed his target as Jindal was addressing Congress workers between 10.30 and 11.30am. While throwing the shoe at Jindal, the retired teacher said he is doing so in protest of the policies of the Congress.

7) On April 21st, 2009, Bollywood actor jeetendra became the target of a shoe throwing incident. Jeetendra, who was addressing a road show organised by the Congress, when someone from the crowd chucked a slipper at him.Jeetendra was campaigning for the former Minister Amrish Patel who is contesting from the Dhule parliamentary constituency.

8) On 26th April, 2009, Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh escaped a shoe attack while delivering a speech in Ahmedabad in the state of Gujarat. The shoe did not hit the prime minister but fell several metres away from the podium.The suspect was identified as a 28-year-old computer engineering student from Bapunagar in Ahmedabad. The incident happened when Manmohan was delivering a speech at a political rally and touched on unemployment in the diamond industry in Gujarat.

Why we are suspicious to nationalism and patriotism?

1857- the Indian freedom fighters are hanged




The Indians starved to death in british India empire

2009-(kasmir) burning indian Flag




Nationalism and patriotism is eroding day by day due to the advancement of globalization and economic liberalization. Due the Global Village concept (largely governed by economic and industrial activities) the social nature of the human civilization becomes weak. Whenever social nature became loose, the people keep themselves aloof from nationalism and patriotism. There are several examples I have been ncountered with this present generation. Some are given bellow;
1) One day like other days I’m chatting with my friends. Every time when I start conversation with a new friend I wish them vande mataram. One day a youth about 26-28 yrs, professionally links with financial sector, violently reacted when I commented him on not wished back vande mataram. He said simply reciting vande mataram cannot change the India’s present situation; I have love and affection to my country but can’t recite vande mataram. This is one of the many examples I have been experienced from last five days. The ratio of the reacting people is 10 among 4.
What is the psychological aspect of this present generation. have they forget the sacrifice of our freedom fighters or they simply not feel the essence of independence. If any body asks me the same question, I can surely go for the both. Present generation don’t feel and have no idea what is independence. Because, the present generation born after many decades of India’s independence. Their fore father’s did not sacrifice any thing for their mother nation. So they have no emotion and passion for the freedom, liberty and independence. They just identified themselves with India because they born and brought up here. There is another thing which passively influence their such attitude,
a) The politicians abused and modified the concept of nationalism and patriotism to satisfy their own desires in such an extent that nobody likes it. Those who really know the nationalism and patriotism they don’t want to hear it in the present condition, they became suspicious to their words.
b) There is another cause that no single school syllable of modern education carry the true picture of the freedom struggle and freedom fighters. They only give informations but not the true sense. Where these things has been taught, the enrollment is very low. The parents donot like to send their children there for study rather go for english medium schools.
So, It is the right time to redefine the concepts of nationalism and patriotism. At least it is the burden of every Indian to make the nationalism and patriotism flow continuously and clearly.

Let every Indian, know that these are our leaders.......


These pictures all shows the gross dis-respect and insult tothe Indian National flag by this so called 'spiritual leader' and selfproclaimed 'GOD' Mataji Nirmala Devi. This dis-respect to our country's flagshows that she has definitely no respect or love for the country that gaveher so much and her husband who was an IAS officer and chief of the SCI (he is seated next to her in the pics). Such a shame..I do urge and plead with all Indians who deeply love their country toforward the photos to as many people as possible so that it does catch theeye of someone higher up in the Indian Govt who can really take some actionagainst this cult.

Shameless people....... Fit for Nothing....
Have a look at two of the leaders we have chosen to rule us.... sitting and having a leisure time when our National Anthem is being played......The Lalu jadab and Rabri devi

15th general Election: A foul play of Democracy

What is democracy means ? Why we should debate on this? Should we concern about this? All these questions may seem to be conventional. But one thing clear from these answers that our so called biggest democracy going to loose its essence. The 15th general election is its finger post.
We say that Democracy is the opinion of majority. But how can we say this election is the opinion of majority. If …
1) The First phase voting of the 15th general election clearly implies that the voters are not interested in this democratic system. Even after the using of 300, 166 EVMs, large number of voter awareness programs, advertisements. Mammoth campaigning of more than 15 hundred candidates of 141 different political parties, out of 143.1 million voters only 53.85 percent voters casted their vote.
2) Even with more than 4 lakh security personals and 900,000 pooling staffs, more than 10 thousand pool observers could not stop muscle power and money power used to allure voters.
3) More than one thousand political parties and 1500 manifestos (election promises) but what is the result. 10 percent of the manifestos remained non working.
4) More than 800 corers has been spent in the 1st phase of the 15th general election (awaiting another 4) from our money.

Now you can visualized this not better than the political conditions Of Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Palestine, So, Why we are boasting that we have world’s biggest democracy. Why we should we need all these political parties and why we need such election.

Condemn it……………and be ready for another revolution for an alternate democracy.

Spark of Revolution*

(Chandrashekar Azad's dead body kept on public display by the British to serve as a warning message for other revolutionaries.)
Where the human being finding himself at this present stage, is not only for his physical qualities but also for his persistent intellectual struggle for the preservation of his individual identity. further his very survival is not for its winning in every struggle but striving every time to give continuation to revolutions in himself and to cope accordingly with his related environment. In this activity every moment he needs a force, a power, which can bring a good harmony between the revolution of inner self and outer world. This “force” is a perennial spiritual and intellectual vibration which tries to connect the two different existence; inner-self and outer-world, between physical capabilities and intellectual or mental ability. From the time immemorial this force flows with every activity of destruction and construction of life. Since the indestructive quality of the “force” scientifically may be formulated as E= MC yet the purpose is never been defined and always remained mystical, enigmatic and “Divine”. So, all these transformations are made for a Divine purpose and will. In this universe various transformations are present with different formations but the source is one and basic, and purpose is fixed and unchangeable that, all are working to bring a harmony and balance among various existences. Since the divine force flows through every animate and inanimate subject, than it is established and even unquestionable truth that no one can resist the provoking force for a change than how a human being. So, his freedom for a revolution is his birth right and even unavoidable. “ the preservation of the human being by the nature is for its perseverance to struggle”.

What?
We the human beings are one of the living elements on the earth but different from others. Apart from all related hypothesis, laws on human qualities one thing is so distincting, fascinating and even challenging which, differentiate ourselves from other animals i.e. the power to dream and striving for its fulfillment. Human ambition and dream to expand like the Air, to rise till the limits of Sky, to move faster like the Light. Inevitably all his ambitions are unstopped and it is one kind of energy, consciousness which, makes him restless till its fulfillment. Why man is ambitious? Why he wants more than his needs of life?. On the basis of the existing information about the man and his journey towards his fulfillment of ambition, our concluding answers may speak that “human wants are unlimited” because he needs a better life, superior, powerful than the others. This need is important when he struggled for his survival with other living creatures, who were superior in their physical strength than human beings. In the survival struggle it seems that man was survived because of his intellectual capability to turn his physical inferiorities into positive strengths. At this present stage he, finished his struggle with the animal contenders now, except his fellow man there is nothing on the earth with whom he can compete. Some times we can argue that some person are submissive to the situation with no further interest for physical or intellectual change if so, they are either got the higher stage than intellectual provocation or their emotional state is not so authenticated to provoke intellectual activity. - Why this power to desire more and more never exhaust? If we find where it will be exhausted, say “the end” we must find our selves at the stage of thousand years back from today, from where the homo-sapiens came to existence. In our life all the quarries, questions to different subjects and matters may seems different but out coming answers and further questions to it, moving in a cyclic order, it starts with a question and ends at the birth of another question and probably our ultimate quest ends where it starts. So, it seems that all our material quests are not leading towards a prolific stage even though several refinements. At this present stage of human development, man is not satisfied with his physical capability. He is trying to strengthen his physical body on acquiring the distinct physical qualities (strengths) of other animals through transplantation and experimenting to exclude his physical incapabilities through gene decodifying, simultaneously he want to make himself an indestructive physical form. Is it possible through his intellectual capability? In this context it is sure that he might succeed in his attempt to change the physical nature but not and even impossible to alter the natural law.
I, here not for the idea of another parallel to the spiritual existence like Br’ahman, Para’mat’ma or the supreme Soul. It is all about the man whose, do’s and don’ts are not influenced by the spiritual innerself but by the intellectual innerself. The intellectual capacity of the human beings are that which forces him to act for the fulfillment of his desires. It is about the intellectual man who strives to attain outer distinction, and finding the pleasure for his senses. This very desire for more and more, often made him licentiousness, and causes socio-intellectual imbalance. Consequently it leads to a vehement competition and eschews tranquility of mind. When the thoughts of the mind becomes ego centric and concentrated its thoughts on self projection, it gradually detaches from the social behaviors. A man In this situation might not be survived longer, his existence becomes precarious. So, in order to save himself from the future danger, he must need a change of situation where, he can face least problem and danger. Actually his desire to change is making corrections in his own creation. So, what will be the correcting measures is almost hypothetically and left for the test of the time. Every correction is not a perfect one and every change is not suitable. In this cyclic journey every element leaves his past position acquires a new, even with his new physical body and intelligent. Subject wants a change and strives accordingly but what will be the next change is not under the control of that subject. It is more like predetermined. The subject or the element is an agent who performs its predetermined activity and enters the new changed environment fixed by “The Divine law”. Because striving for change is Revolution and it is the one and only way to the prolific refinement. Describing this fact I’m justifying the divine origin” of revolution for divine purposes. Every element consciously or unconsciously has to play an active role in it. In a revolution who will lead, who will be the winner, who will be the loser and who will be remain inactive is determined just like a scene of a drama. He gets the freedom to act with in a defined limitation. The actor with his part and limitations should have to act. His lead, and future impressive position will be determined by his own activeness and struggle to establish his own capability.

Why?
Cry for a change is a revolution. If, we thought this is the time for a change, need of an alternation, a transformation, same time, we consciously prepared ourselves for a revolution, from where we can open a passage for a new situation and find a new alternative which could satisfy our desire for refinement. Than it is high time to understand our role and the part to act.
Before entering the Divine course of Revolution, we must ask a question ourselves- Are we different and a parallel creation of the Divine? Whatever may be The answer, We the human-beings are the strongest among all the living creations who, survived and evolved with new face after several revolutions of nature. We are making ourselves suitable to the varying environment. But, Who made us the fittest and suitable? Who made us strongest? Why we are still existing? In this sense the term immortal to human quality may sounds absurd but logically and scientifically we are some how immortal because we are here with the genes of our ancestors with more or less refinement. Think how are our ancestors the Peikingman, the Java, the Cro-Magnon, the Neanderthal, etc. We are walking straight with two legs, with a beautifully designed body and well built muscles suitable for the use of modern equipments unlike them. Our ancestors never made surgery to make their predecessors legs straight. They never codified and altered our genes ( when one gene may change ourselves to a chimpanzee) . We are evolved within homo-sapiens and even after several radical refinements in the future we might be in this group of bionomialnomenclature. Human beings gradually transformed from a barbaric forest loving ape-man to a civilized man. The difference between them is not a sudden metamorphosis but a gradual and continuous transformation along with the time. Even though our journey of transformation is determined by the nature yet our distinct psychological tendencies suitably maintained the reciprocal relationship with the changing environment. Need for a change, is a pure and independent state of feeling. It is a hereditary transmission and is not only a psychological but also biological mechanism to work. Which is necessary to maintain the longevity of the so-called human species. Wanting a change is an emotional state which produced before by provoking the intellectual state i.e. Revolution. Our analysis are not for the theory of evolution but a synthesis to establish “The Theory of Revolution”. Conclusively it is true that we are revolving through a predetermined cyclic path of nature yet we are here because of our ability to attain a change. After a century our society may be full of men with superhuman qualities and our environ will not be same as today. There we may come face to face with other new and powerful challenges. Even at that time if we want to survive we must struggle and revolt against all deadlocks which are suppressing our forward movement. Every intellectual being (say human beings) want a change, but only the individual who, is intellectually strong can materialize it. We are survived because we learned not to stop with what is existing but keeping our pace with the changing time. Revolution is an activity of time where newness originates and it must not be stopped for the sake of human progress.

When?
One of the terminologies of Revolution implies “ a complete, drastic, and far reaching change in ideas, social habits, ways of doing things”. Every day in our life we are after a change, we are wondering for better things. As we grow older we oftenly experience such situation. Our thoughts, ideas, EQ( Emotional Quotient) ,IQ (Intelligence Quotient ) are changing, experimentally it is proved that the aptness for a change is high and deep in younger generation even for this change they take some bold steps—Why these things happen? probably this aptness revitalize our strength and increases our fighting sprit, necessary for our survival struggle. Experiencing new things and situations might stimulates the particular part of our Brain which gives pleasure. The new things and circumstances might not gives expected satisfaction but it gives some kind of pleasure. Why we do feel boredom? It is a biological origin, generally our body and muscles unable to work longer time. After some work out we become weak and exhausted. Not only biologically but also psychologically proved that an energetic man can no longer fix to a single work, he want to do more things at a time, for him the anxiety to do new things is high. One became bored if he finds nothing to get relax. at this relaxing moment one needs complete liberty, freedom, independence ceasing all these things might bitter the situation. Boredom is a self destructive psychological situation, in this situation the chance of defeat is high. So, if you want increase the survival chance of human beings and development of its ability , it is necessary to give unbound but finite freedom to act and experience newer things and situations.

Cycle of Revolution

Need for physical Strength, Power
Want for Change
Transformation or Attaining new Stage
Competition for Survival

Why one should be proud to be Brahmin

Complexity of caste system in Indian civilization still persists, and for the last thousands of years we the Brahmins remained as intellectual giant among all the castes. As one of the higher castes of India our ancestors contributed much towards the development of this subcontinent, India, Jambhudiwpa, Aryavarta, Bharat Varsha. In every sphere of human activities in great Indian civilization, we uphold the task of renaissance through social transformation, cultural development, political upsurge, economical development, and educational reformation of our beloved mother land. Along with the time with the advance of globalization and privatization our social system has been changed and we remained as sufferer class. Our fore fathers fought against the so-called conservative attitude of higher castes and tried their level best to uplift the backward mass and give them their right. in this line the work of Dayananda Saraswati, Raja Ram Mohan Roy, Swami Vevekananda, Ramakrushna Paramahansa, Iswara Chandra Vidya Sagara, Sri Chaitanya, Santha Gyanaswara, Lalbahadur Sastri, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehuru, and even our ancient saints also promulgated “ universal Brotherhood” . we created Valmiki, Viswamitra, Kalidasa. we helped to bring the river ganga to this earth, we created the golden era of Gupta’s, Maurya’s. we are the Aryabhatta, Barahamihira, and Charaka. Our Sankaracharya, Ramanujacharya, saved the Indian civilization from perversion, and cultural degradation. Our Chanakya traveled extensively to strength our national unity against the Greek aggression. Even at our state level the great freedom worrier Jai Rajaguru, the framers of modern Utkala like, Naba Krushna Chaudhury, Nilakantha Dash, the Socialism Promulgator Godabarish Mahapatro, etc. at our local level we are also contributed much for the human intellectual advancement, the work of Shyama sunder Rajaguru, Satya Narayan Rajaguru, the Landless farmers friend and leader Appana Parrichha, the great literate Gopinatha Nanda Sharma, Appana Panigrahy, Appana Panda, Satyanaryana Panda, and many more.
Now the question arises why we are here, at this current position, why we are neglected in the name of social and educationally forward class? There are so many poor, illiterates in our Brahmin Caste, deprived of the basic amnesties of life like other backward castes, there are so many poor students who have even unable to pursue their education. There are others who are landless, home less.
Now this is the right time for an awakening and social evolution with in us, it is the auspicious time to rethink our own dilapidated culture, tradition.

We must reform our own idea, ideology, and attitude to save our glory, pride, honor. A Brahmin is for the public, by the public and of the public, his main duty is to reform, save and protect intellectually from the perversion of the human mind and intellect. So, raise and uphold the task of Brahmincal pride and Honour. In “Manu Smruti” the disciplinary work has been prescribed for Brahmins, which has the very essence of a socialistic attitude

Our scriptures never violated the very essence of humanity and human dignity yet made our class as a pure and true democratic intellectuals.
With hearth welcome we invite you to discuss on this topic and to form a common ground to strengthen our Brahmincal Culture for Humanity. We request your conscience, consciousness and self- dignity to come forward and be united for the sake national tradition. We are the intellect mass can create a Yuga of reformation in the present age of E-generation.

India 1991-2004 : The BJP era
Foreign Policy : India's military partnership with the USSR ended because of the latter's dissolution; however in 1998 India's President Vajpayee announced that India possessed the Nuclear Bomb (nemesis Pakistan successfully tested their bomb only weeks later). In 1999 Muslim Kashmiri insurgents, with the support of Pakistan invaded the part of Kashmir held by India; a two month border war followed, in which the Indian forces played out their logistical and technical superiority. The war, much displayed on Indian TV, also helped the BJP win the national elections. Relations with neighbour Pakistan remain tense, over Pakistan's continued support for Muslim Kashmiri insurgents. Relations with the US, on the other side, have improved over the last years; US President Bill Clinton paid a historical visit to India in March 2000. .Domestic Policy : The elections following the assassination of Rajiv Gandhi in 1991 were won by the BJP (Bharatiya Janata Party); Atal Bihari Vajpayee became president. The party stresses Indian tradition, as opposed to Islam. Recently major Indian cities were renamed : Bombay to Mumbai, Calcutta to Kolkata. The state of Mysore was renamed Karnataka. In 2000, in an administrative reform, 3 new states were created - Uttaranchal, split off from Uttar Pradesh; Jharkhand, split off from Bihar, and Chhattisgarh, split off from Madhya Pradesh. In 2001. Phoolan Devi ("Bandit Queen") was assassinated. Relations between India's Ethnic and Religious Communities . In 1992, an enraged mob destroyed the historical Babri Mosque in Ayodhya (formerly spelled Oudh, which herself, several century ago, had been constructed at a site previously occupied by a Hindu temple). Radical Hindus then wanted a Hindu temple to be constructed at that site. This temple since has been built. The demolition of the Babri Mosque caused Hindu-Muslim riots, most notably the Bombay Riots of 1992-1993; the nationwide death toll was 1,150 (BBoY 1993). The Economy : In 1991 India produced 110 million metric tons of rice; the figure rose to 134 million in 1999. India's policy of economic liberalization (the cancellation of restrictions against the conversion of Rupees; the permission of the import of gold) showed considerable success. Until 1994, the total value of India's imports exceeded that of the country's exports; since 1992 the export figures sharply increased and by 1996 exports of 1.1 trillion rupees outnumbered imports of 0.84 trillion rupees (at an aggregate current value of 2003; IHS p.545). In 1993 India ended her ban on Coca Cola. A showcase of India's modernizing economy is the computer software business centered on Bangalore (Karnataka). A success story is India's film industry centered on Bombay ("Bollywood"). Lately, outsourcing provides for a considerable number of new jobs in India's economy; India's large number of well-educated, close-native speakers of English, working for a much lower pay than U.S. or European high school or college graduates, attract service sector jobs. India joined the WTO in 1995. Social History . In September 1999, it was announced that the billionth Indian was born - India's population continues to expand at a dramatical rate. India's population in 1991 was established by census as 843 million; the census of 2001 counted 1.021 billion.
India 1984-1991 : The Rajeev era
Foreign Policy : The Republic of India continued close cooperation with the USSR. Negotiations with the PR China aiming at improving mutual relations made some progress. India suspected Pakistan of actively working on developing the nuclear bomb, and on providing refuge and training to the Sikh terrorists. In 1987 India sent troops to Sri Lanka as peacekeepers; the rebel Tamils were declared violators, and the Indian forces turned against them. While the ensuing offensive succeeded in temporarily gaining a lot of ground, the objective of suppressing the rebellion was not achieved, and the Indian forces returned in 1990. In 1988 India sent troops to the Maldives to help suppress a coup attempt by Sri Lankan Tamil mercenaries. Domestic Policy : In 1984, upon the assassination of Indira Gandhi, her son Rajiv Gandhi succeeded. In 1985 the New Congress won general elections. An assassination attempt on Rajiv Gandhi failed in 1986. In 1987, a corruption scandal (Bofors Scandal) rocked the government. Arunachal Pradesh, Goa and Mizoram in 1987 were elevated to the status of state. In 1989, the Congress Party suffered an electoral defeat; Rajiv Gandhi was succeeded by a coalition government headed by Vishwanath Pratap Singh. The coalition disintegrated in 1991 and Rajiv Gandhi campaigned as the Congress Party candidate for president, when he was assassinated by a Tamil Tiger. Relations between India's Ethnicities and Religious Communities : Following Operation Bluestar in 1984, Sikh separatists continued to be active, most notably in the Punjab, culminating in the assassination of Indira Gandhi; an agreement between the Indian government and Akali Dal, the appointment of a new governor for the Punjab and the suggestion of territorial adjustments was intended to deescalate the tension in 1985; the implementation of the agreement proved difficult (1986); terrorist acts of Sikh militants continued (assassination attempt on Rajiv Gandhi 1986). In 1984, Hindu-Muslim riots broke out in Bhiwandi, Bombay and Hyderabad, in Gujarat in 1986, in Uttar Pradesh in 1987. In 1986 Gurkhas in Darjeeling, West Bengal, began a campaign for a separate homeland; the conflict was settled by an agreement with the state government in 1988; a Gurkha Hill Council was established within West Bengal. The Mizo insurgency in Mizoram was ended, the leader of the insurgency taking over as PM of Mizoram. In 1989, campaigns for a separate Bodoland (in Assam) and for a separate Jharkhand (in Bihar) began. Following the formation of the Janata Dal government in 1989, the Hindu extremist BJP campaigned (1990) for the construction of a Hindu temple on the spot where the Babri Mosque in Ayodhya (Uttar Pradesh) was standing (the mosque was demolished by rioting Hindus in 1992); the campaign, in 1990, alienated India's Muslim population, causing riots in many parts of India, and even in Bangladesh. Economic Policy : Rice production increased from 87.5 million metric tons in 1984 to 110.5 million metric tons in 1991 (IHS p.198). The Sixth Five Year Plan ended in 1985, followed by the Seventh (1985-1990) and the Eighth (1990-1995). Rajiv Gandhi pursued the economic opening of India, the technological modernization of which he strove for. Bangalore (Karnataka) developed into a computer software development center. On December 3rd 1984, at a Union Carbide factory in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India, where pesticides were produced, toxic gases leaked; the number of immediate fatalities in the city was estimated at 7,000; the death toll is estimated between 10,000 and 22,000. Social History . In 1984 the population of India was estimated at 734.8 million, the census of 1991 counted 843.9 million. In 1987 India was hit by the worst drought in a century; Gujarat and Rajasthan were affected the most.

Can imposition of emergency cure Kandhamal?

Lambodar Pr. Dash
why kandhamal violence takes place? What is the casue of it? Why a particular community targeted? Why maoists claim that they killed Swami laxmanananda Saraswati? On what basis Hindu organisations accused Christians for the above cause? Why government failed to suppress the ' Kandhamal violence'? Is it right to invoke article 356 in the state?- there are many questions to be answered, at least by the journalists.
The situation in Kandhamal must be understood through thorough analysis of the social and economic condition of the inhabitating people. We can draw a sharp line between the people who resided there into primitive inhabitants and those who migrated in to the area. The local inhabitants like, kondhos, sauras and kuis, etc have no voice because they are financial backward. This is the situation the Christian missionaries exploited and propagated their religion. The so called baptism created a creamy layer among the backwards. In course of time these people not only exploited their fellow brothers but also targeted the other Hindu community who resided there largely business community. They even socially tortured their fellow brothers, who are not after their allured promises and not yet baptized. There is another community; their percentage may be limited yet very much influenced on the Christian community. Even in elections their role is highly escalating. They are above the local pastors, and religious leaders. They are Nuns and Fathers from Kerala, West Bengal, and outside of the state. They have little knowledge of local environment, they are from different languages and social and cultural backgrounds. Here we cannot deny the fact that the migratory businessmen who are minor yet became one of the dominant classes of Kandhamal, many times exploited the ignorant local tribes financially. The Other section of the business community who exploited tribals for hundred years, are “Panas”. Along with the advent of the other business class they pushed backward. But most of the economic, fertile lands are on their occupation. They are not legally entitled to this but by their shrewdness took over it from tribals. When the panas felt that they are weak to compete with the new business class, they inclined towards other business. They found a way in Propagation of Christianity and worked more or less like brokers (mediators) between government officials and tribals. This community is very intelligent and witful. They know the nerves of the local tribal community. They know how to mesmerize them. They earned good amount of money out of it. Apart from this, for many decades the Kandhamal remained cut off from the out side world. No roads, no communication, no electricity, no health facilities, no education. Even the people are deprived the basic amnesties of life. The government machinery completely failed to execute. Even in such chaos and confusions this situation gives little scope for the Extremist leftist organization like Naxals. The outfit many times pondered for a base but failed. They appealed the exploitation of the businessmen community, but these are little heared by the tribals. There is one rule ‘Christianity’ in kandhamal until the emergence of Swami Laxmanananda. This was the year 1980s. Since than the oppressed Hindu Business class and the Tribals (who are not yet baptized) get a ground to ventilate their psycho-cultural grievances. Since than there are several instances where both the religious communities came face to face. The finding shows that since 1980s the missionary activities, religious conversions and floating of out of state Fathers, nuns grew, like the Hindu counterpart.
Here the question arises why Swami Laxmananada was more emotionally attached to the tribals than the Christian missionaries. For the answer I’m here neither prasing the Swami nor his activities, but want to show what was the psychological authentication took place after the Sawmi’s activities.Usually the panas. Even the tribals who became Christianized, they have less contact with the upper layer pastors and fathers. Unlike Laxmanananda, who lived with tribals as one of their family. Because of his voice and works tribals get some force and became self consciousness. They sat and contacted with the upper class business class in many occasions. (one of the part I elaborating here; with the Swami, tribals went outside, they read and see their names and activities through media reports, their represented and children respected in high class Hindu community) The growing influence of the Swami alarmed the very presence of the missionaries. The killing of 85 years old Swami implies the whole thing clearly and straightly. Maoist cadres may be involved but not the total outfit. They may be hired for the same purpose. Here the question arises, why Maoists or naxals not acted 5 or 10 years back? If they are active in kandhamal, why not they identified the culprits?
Who killed whom and for what, is not of our point of discussion. But why the whole tribal community raised their arms? With out any motivational force and authentication of their grievances a struggle cannot and never go long. What is that?
All these answers throwing light, how foolishly central and state government fighting over the imposition of article 356. The Army, polish and coercion measures may give a momentary relief but not the cure. And I’m sure even after the imposition of 356 the same thing must happen in kandhamal and other parts of tribal odisha.
