All of this to get RJB @ Ayodhya delayed beyond 2019 While CJI is going to retire in Oct. 2018, will he be able to close it before he hangs up his robes? Or, will the case drag on after his retirement? If so, who is next in line of succession? Will he/she put the case on the back burner?

Any idea how close is the case to a verdict? I don't see any developments about the case anywhere in newspapers, TV, SM, Internet etc.

Guys, help me with this. The libtards are going hammer and tongs against BJP, against ModiJi and YogiJi for the rape and murder of a 8 yr old in Jammu, and the custodial death of the father of a rape victim in UP. India is never a dull place for news, but these 2 horrible crimes need closer examination and I have been behind. Now, under normal conditions, nobody, unless one is mentally ill can condone these barbarities. However, given libtards pre-meditated hatred of BJP, I am not yet buying their side of the story. So someone help me with whats going on, specifically:

1. Why are the J&K layers protesting the charge sheet against the rape and murder accused? Listening and reading libtards and oh so sanctimonious Kashmir Muslim journalists views like Mazamil Jaleel in Indian(Paki)Express (who are silent when it comes to their Paki lover boys' terror), I am not prepared to accept their version. There is for sure more than meets the eye.

2. As the libtards claim, is YogiJi really going soft on the rape and murder accused in UP?

3. It does appear to me that here is another case where had the libtards picked up some horrible crimes with a Hindu connection, and not jumped the bandwagon and attacked BJP and given an ideological cover to the crimes, I am pretty sure justice would have take its course, and BJP ministers would have condemned the crimes. But once the libtards started attacking ModiJi and BJP for his 'silence', all but implying they were responsible, the familiar BJP Vs rest ugly verbal spats galore. Am I correct in my interpretation?

Yogi needs to take control in the Unnao rape case. BJP MLA should be asked to resign from assembly pending investigation.

Revealing statement by the new CM:

“When I moved into the CM’s office where Manik Sarkar sat for so many years, I was amazed that his table had no National Flag. I got the Tricolour on that table for the first time,” the Chief Minister said.

The previous CM was supposed to be a simple person, perhaps too simple to ignore even the national flag.

[Sachin]

But once the libtards started attacking ModiJi and BJP for his 'silence', all but implying they were responsible, the familiar BJP Vs rest ugly verbal spats galore.

Modi is the Prime Minister of the country, not the Thanedar in UP. So if things goes wrong questions have to be raised with the CM, Yogi. Modi & Central Govt. if they now jump in, any way would be accused of being too late to arrive and secondly it is like accepting that they were responsible. L&O is a state subject and if answers are required, then it has to come from the state government. In KL yesterday the police picked up a Dalit Youth (mistaken identity) and thrashed him death. Will media go and ask Yechuri (who is busy at Congress party office) for an explanation? The "secular" media is not even questioning the state's CM.

There is much more to this sad story, and now there is no point in relying on any one group.

The police have sought a list of government employees who were on leave on April 2 from the district administration. The police said that the list will help them identify those employees who were involved in violence during the bandh and action will be taken accordingly.

Hundreds of government employees from the SC/ST community had taken leave on April 2 and participated in the bandh. It has now come to the fore that many government employees were involved in instigating violence.

day after the bandh, when the police started arresting the culprits, sweepers at the Barmer municipal council went on mass leave. Later, the authorities assured them that no action will be taken against innocent people. The authorities assured them that action will only be taken against those who have taken the law into their hands.

Despite the assurance, only half employees came back and the other half is still on leave. A similar situation exists in education and other departments. Many teachers have not joined duty fearing police action.

Like the Barmer police, their counterparts in Jalore and Nagaur have also started taking action. Station house officer in Medta police station in Nagaur has written to the block education officer, Medta, to provide a list of teachers who were on leave on April 2.

The nationwide bandh on April 2 was called by Dalit organisations to protest the Supreme Court’s ruling that, they say, dilutes the SC/ST (prevention of atrocities) Act. Nine persons were killed in the country, including one in Rajasthan, during the nationwide bandh.

This clearly has undertones of political and cultural messaging.

This sort of cultural seige using psyops simply does not originate in India. It has offshore connections and is targeted at a particular community to desensitize them to other very specific forms of thought leading and influence peddling, even preparing them for conversions by subtly inculcating a hatred for their own religion as well as culture.

It has been repeatedly hammering home just one subtle message against one particular religion and community otherwise, so many "movies" using the same techniques cannot be a coincidence. It has to be enemy action.

It has also succeeded in getting a great many "hep" Hindu kids today to ridicule their own heritage and question their very roots.



Bollywood’s passive-aggressive attitude towards Hinduism

Bollywood’s passive-aggressive attitude towards Hinduism

In the name of broad-mindedness Hindus have been made to believe that it is okay to make fun of their gods. But then, if it is okay to make fun of gods, why isn’t it okay to make fun of a Muslim god or a Christian god (in India) or a Sikh guru? Theatres will be burned, and people will be killed.

Identity (Distortion & Appropriation) | 10-04-2018

My daughter was insisting that we watch “funny videos” on YouTube (casting on TV) while she had her scrambled egg breakfast and waited for her math teacher to show up. When I started the YouTube app, I came across the trailer of the upcoming Amitabh Bachchan-Rishi Kapoor flick, 102 Not Out. I like both the actors, so I insisted that before we proceeded to funny videos, we should watch the trailer.

They show lots of stuff in the trailer and eventually, they show that Rishi Kapoor’s character is going through some existential dilemma and he ends up sitting in a church. Something in the scene put me off and without making it apparent to my daughter, I changed the video quickly and loaded one of the funny videos she was insisting on watching.

After reading what I’m writing, you may think that I am raking up some conspiracy theory or, I’m one of those “Right Wing” Sanghis constantly demonizing minorities and claiming that Hinduism is being targeted.

My grandmother often used to say that before my birth, she had never seen a disabled person. After my birth, she could spot people with disabilities everywhere (because I was born with a disability). My disability sensitized her towards a part of worldly reality she was totally oblivious to simply because she hadn’t experienced it herself.

Something of the same sort happens when you have been sensitized towards a particular issue: you begin to recognize patterns that others can’t. Of course, sometimes you begin to see patterns where none exist because you are too eager to find those patterns. But sometimes these patterns are too obvious.

In the above-mentioned movie, why did Rishi Kapoor’s character sit inside a church? Why not in a temple? Is he a Christian? If yes, why does the theme have to be about Christian characters? Would the characters look uncool had they been temple-going Hindus? Do the makers of the movie think the urban audience won’t be able to relate to temple-going characters?

Being one of the major religions in India, why should there be a problem if a character in an Indian movie sits in a church, whether he or she is a Christian or not? Of course, in an ideal world, in a world where all communities are treated equally, all religions are respected, and thousands of organizations are not converting the crap out of unsuspecting people, there shouldn’t be a problem. The character can be from a tiny tribal religion from Andaman Nicobar Islands whose followers shoot arrows at helicopters thinking that they are giant birds, for all I care.

I’m talking about the pattern. I’m talking about the passive-aggressive attitude that manifests in Bollywood films, advertisements, and even popular literature. But, here I’m just focusing on Bollywood.

My wife and daughter went to see Hichki recently, a story about a woman with Tourrette Syndrome who wants to become a teacher in a school. Wherever she goes she faces rejection. Guess who gives her a chance; a Muslim principal of a Christian school. Yup.

Yes, I know plenty has been written on the film but no harm in repeating it. When many Hindus started protesting that in the film Hindu gods, especially Shiva, are ridiculed, the makers of the film insisted that all religions are questioned in the film and to an extent, they are right.

The small difference is, whereas all the religions are questioned, Hinduism is ridiculed, and the ridicule is highlighted in a long sequence when one of the greatest Hindu gods, Shiva (a person acting as Shiva in a nautanki, not actual Shiva) is shown crawling under the seats or hiding in a toilet.

Remember that a movie is a visual medium. Visuals make a great impact.

Talking about visuals, I remember the first visual of a Brahmin scolding a lower caste and making all sorts of violent gestures just because the person of the lower caste accidentally bumps into him in a black-and-white movie. That made an imprint for a long time and whenever I saw a Brahmin or whenever I read about a Brahmin, that image popped inside my head. Of course, all the atrocity literature that you constantly come across played an important role too. Until I started reading alternative literature I always had this underlying negative attitude towards Brahmins.

Visuals are very important. If you can see the pattern, you will notice how Bajirao Peshwa has been depicted in Bajirao-Mastani, how Maharawal is shown in Padmavati, and then contrast, how Akbar is shown in Jodha-Akbar. These visuals are meant for your subconscious.

Coming back to PK, whereas, when the central character of the film PK questions other religions, he is not questioning their gods or making fun of their gods, he is simply questioning the way people try to placate the gods or try to make profit out of people’s blind belief.

But when it comes to a Hindu god, the very existence of the gods is questioned, and not just questioned, ridiculed, lampooned. Even the main godman in the end who questions and torments the female character is a Hindu, and not a Muslim or a Christian. If you say this is because maybe the female character was a Hindu, then in this case, why not have a Muslim female character or a Christian female character? There was no particular reason for the female character to be a Hindu, just like there is no particular reason for Rishi Kapoor’s character in 102 Not Out to seek solace in a temple rather than a church.

You may say that Hindus themselves lampoon their gods and goddesses especially during Ramlila and other religious festivals, and even in various film comedies, but this is primarily the impact of a lopsided and motivated popular culture. If you don’t take your gods seriously, you don’t take your religion seriously, and when you don’t take your religion seriously, it is easier to convert you.

Have you seen Judwa 2? In the movie there is a song Ganpati Bappa Moriya Pareshaan Karen Mujhe Chhoriya. Now, what sense does it make to make the central character of the movie sing such a song in a temple in front of the gigantic idol of Ganpati? The character repeatedly turns his back towards the idol and condescendingly folds his hands behind his head as if doing a favour to the idol by folding his hands. Visuals. Subconscious.

Can the same feat, especially in India, be carried out in a church or in a mosque? If yes, well, there is nothing to argue about.

Why don’t Muslims lampoon their god? In Western societies, whereas Christians do lampoon Jesus, in India the story is totally different. Why don’t Sikhs lampoon their 10 gurus? Have you ever seen Buddha or Mahavira being lampooned? No.

In the name of broad-mindedness Hindus have been made to believe that it is okay to make fun of their gods.

But then, if it is okay to make fun of gods, I will ask you again, why isn’t it okay to make fun of a Muslim god or a Christian god (in India) or a Sikh guru? Can we ever have a movie showing Allah, Jesus and Guru Gobind Singh Ji goofing around? Theatres will be burned, and people will be killed.

On the occasion of Hanuman Jayanti the Indian wrestling champion Babita Phogat posted this tweet along with Lord Hanuman’s image:

Bollywood passive-aggressive attitude towards Hinduism 01

In the tweet she says that her every act and success is due to the blessings of Bajrangbali, and people think that she is lucky. She never wrestles without seeking blessings of Bajrangbali.

Almost all Hindu wrestlers pray to Hanuman regularly, especially before a match. Even many non-Hindu wrestlers are Hanuman devotees. I remember when one of my cousins started wrestling, he became a Hanuman devotee (he’s a Sikh).

Almost every rural and urban wrestling akhara/gym has a Hanuman idol at some prominent location. He is the god of wrestlers in India.

Hanuman is my favourite Hindu god and just out of love and emotional connection, I wanted to see what sort of comments people had left. After scrolling a bit, I came across this comment from someone:

Bollywood passive-aggressive attitude towards Hinduism 02

In case you’re not aware of the context, a movie was made on the story of the Phogat Sisters called Dangal (rural wrestling contest). So, the above twitter update mentions that if Lord Hanuman has such a prominent place in her life, why isn’t it even once mentioned in the movie? A movie about wrestling. No Hanuman. Not even once.

Have you seen Guide? Raju, the character played by Devanand, goes to a village and is confronted by two rotund and cunning-looking Hindu Brahmins. The pathetic looking Brahmins are constantly shown taking poor, illiterate villagers for a ride, fleecing money out of them and intimidating them with superstition. Then Raju has a debate, in English with the Brahmins. Of course, nobody understands English, not even the Brahmins, but everyone is so impressed by the fact that Raju can speak English, that the Brahmin duo flees in panic. They are literally chased by lathi-wielding villagers. What does this tell you as a young person?

In a Bollywood movie, when was the last time you saw a devout Hindu priest being kind to someone, or finding an orphan and raising him or her, or simply doing lots of good stuff? You won’t be able to recall. Can’t a Hindu priest or a Brahmin or a godman ever be noble, righteous and benevolent? How is it possible that amidst such a big community, Bollywood movie makers cannot conceive even a single such character?

On the other hand, you can immediately recall a Christian padre or a devout Muslim raising an orphan or giving an overwhelmingly nice advice to the hero or the heroine of the movie, or even dying for a cause or for the central character of the movie. There are plenty of such characters. In Dhool Ka Phool it is a Muslim who raises the orphan child. In Dost it is a Christian father who raises the character of Dharmendra.

I’m not saying such instances are impossible to find in Bollywood movies, but you will really need to make an effort to find them, whereas, the examples mentioned above can be found aplenty.

When was the last time you saw a Hindu priest or a Hindu sadhu molesting a helpless woman or being nasty to people around him or indulging in all sorts of vile activities? Plenty of such instances.

In Roti Kapada Aur Makaan, what exactly was the need to show a person wearing bhagwa (safron clothing) when Moushmi Chatterjee’s character is tragically gang raped? Would the scene be less traumatic without such a person being one of the rapists?

When was the last time you saw a devout Christian or a devout Muslim (or even pretending to be one) molesting a woman or being nasty? You won’t be able to recall, because there is none. If there was any, there is a 100% chance that the movie was banned or something.

Amar Akbar Anthony. Three small kids get separated. One is adopted by a Christian Father, another is adopted by a Muslim person, and third, well, no idea, but since he is called Amar, let’s assume either he wasn’t adopted at all or some Hindu adopted him, but it is never shown.

Anthony is shown multiple times interacting with the Father in the church and even talking to Jesus.

Akbar is shown in a Muslim atmosphere. He is also shown singing in a Dargah and flaunting religious garb and moving among Muslim men and women.

Amar simply exists. He has no other identity. He is never shown in the proximity of a Hindu god. He doesn’t have a Hindu guardian. There is nothing in the movie to show that in some way highlights the Hindu religion.

Hindi language. If there are chaste Urdu dialogues and poetry in a movie, it signifies romance and high-class. In most of the mainstream movies, chaste Hindi and poetry either means a low-budget religious flick or cult movie, or a comedy.

Similarly, characters speaking fluent English or fluent Urdu are earnest, and are to be respected, but characters speaking fluent Hindi, for example Amitabh Bachchan’s character in Chupke Chupke, carries a funny tinge and hence, shouldn’t be taken seriously, and in fact, wherever possible, should be made fun of.

You can find plenty of mainstream songs using incomprehensible Urdu and even Arabic words and phrases and again, they are a mark of high-class and erudition. A purely Hindi song becomes a comedy song.

Rukh se, zara naqab uthado mere huzur, dripping with cultured Urdu vocabulary, is romantic and mellifluous and even high-grade poetry, Priye praneshwari, hrideshwari, in pure Hindi, is used as a comedy song.

Who the hell knows the meaning of Zihaale-e-masti Makun ba Ranjish? Still, this song is sung with great flair. Or for that matter, how many people are supposed to know the meaning of Nukta-chin hai gham-e dil?

In many mainstream movies you must have seen the hero adorning achkan-churidaar pajama. That was hot couture and stylish. You could see suave heroes like Rajesh Khanna, Raj Kapur, Rajender Kumar and Sunil Dutt courting damsels. Whether one lived in Mumbai, Delhi or Kolkata, it was kosher to wear such dresses. But come dhoti-kurta and it would be either a ganwaar hero who is a gaonwala, or a scheming mama who would torment the family of the hero or the heroine.

Again, I’m pretty sure, if you cannot detect the pattern, if you are not sensitive towards the existence of this pattern, maybe what I’m trying to say here will not make sense.

There is an entire culture under siege, and people don’t even realize it.

[Vikas]

^ One thing I am happy about is Urdu language and Islamic (Mostly culture of Lucknow) moorings have faded out other wise it was as if movies were tailor made for Muslims with Johnny walker or Mahmood thrown in.
Call me whatever but I was very happy with Karni Sena. Atleast they stood up for something and have proven that threat does work with Bhaiwood.

Chetak ji: Unfortunately, we Hindus are responsible for making such movies success including downright dumb movies like PK, OMG and Dharam Sankat mein.

At this point where this incident is snowballing into a fiasco, the UP Gov should have suspended the MLA & the cops who have allegedly killed the victim's father and handed the case over to the CBI. They are just giving more & more ammo to the opposition. Let the MLA be in jail while the CBI sorts out the case. Very badly handled.
