History and Politics of India's Partition; Tracing the genesis of communal antagonism.

The People of India at large, in their collective conscience, have forgotten the history and significant events that unfolded in the making of the modern Indian Republic. They have forgotten the communal travesties caused by the partition, unleashed by the forces fighting for the establishment of an Islamic state. The CAA legislation is a delayed justice to a historical genocide that broke the cultural and civilizational unity of Bharat and amputated it into an acronym called Pakistan. Their Gazwa e hind doctrine and the deep state have a sole purpose, which is to destroy India!!  and thereby the venerable Sanathana Dharmic civilization in total. If one needs to understand this destructive Pakistani-Islamist phenomenon, knowing the broad outline of the origins of two-nation theory, history and travesty of the partition of India, and the ideological foundations of the first modern Islamic state, "The Islamic Republic of Pakistan" is a must. History and politics of partiti...

Citizenship Amendment Act; The argumentative conundrum

The recently passed citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) of 2019 has been in headlines giving scope for a public debate, often turning controversial without entering into the underlaid nuances, legal, moral and civilizational issues, which have to be addressed. This act is not about underlaying a Hindu- Muslim communal divide or neither is it about outrightly denying anyone citizenship based on a religious basis. Also, it's interlinked with the recently conducted NRC( National Register of Citizenship) process in Assam, which is brawling with several lacunes in the process and structural lapses.  But questions are being raised about the liberal-secular values of India, the constitutional validity and the justiciability with the basic structure doctrine of the constitution. Critical historical factors of the partition of India and its aftermath, followed by the Bangaladesh liberation war of 1971 and the Assam Accord of 1985 are under the scanner of the commentariat and opinion-makers. ...

Pakistani deep state and the illusion of peace.

I was listening to Arif Mohammed Khan, in one of his speeches, where he reveals the conversation between Mosses and Allah, which are mentioned in the Hadiz,( one of the holy books of Islam ). In it,  Mosses said to Allah, " Oh Allah, when you become agonized with our people, capture everything from us, but leave our brains( intellect) alone. Allah replied, "No! When  I  get agonized, the first thing that I take away from people, are their brains, rest falls apart and collapses on its own". Perhaps the problem with the acromanial territory of Pakistan, which unfortunately became a nation-state in 1947, has lost the power of critical and rational thinking. ( A Hadiz revealed previously, has come true). If we turn back, to the dark pages of history, and read the tragic story of partition and it's origins, all that a normal and a sensitive person would get is a handful of tears, or probably, into traumatization. Because the doctrinal basis of the creation of Pakistan ...

The Trump factor of asylum U turn. Damaging the American composite culture.

US President Donald Trump’s administration will implement a new asylum policy at the border that will result in potentially thousands of asylum seekers being turned away before they can plead their case in court. The guidance issued on Wednesday also applies to refugee applicants — immigrants seeking similar protections in the US who are still abroad, media reported. Under the new guidance given to the officers who interview asylum seekers at the US’ borders and evaluate refugee applications, claims based on fear of gang and domestic violence will be immediately rejected. In addition, the guidance tells officers they should consider whether an immigrant crossed the border illegally and weigh that against their claim, potentially rejecting even legitimate fears of persecution if the immigrant crossed illegally. It says officers “may find an applicant’s illegal entry, including any intentional evasion of US authorities, and including any conviction for illegal entry where the al...

BRICS Plus; Globalization 2.0

New gateways One of the ways to overcome this may be to shift the focus from trade liberalization or large-scale integration towards building a wider framework of integration and cooperation in the developing world that opens new gateways for cooperation among BRICS and their partners across continents. This kind of framework may be realized through China’s initiative to create a BRICS+ circle that according to China’s foreign minister Wang Yi will represent a new platform for the South-South cooperation via holding dialogues with other major developing countries or groups of developing countries to establish a more extensive partnership. The new BRICS+ initiative is coming not just at the right time as the BRICS is seeking to find new gateways to development, but it will also perhaps be one of the first truly global undertakings of the developing world in shaping a new, more balanced economic order. This in turn is made possible due to the unique nature of the BRICS, which is represen...
