Hindu defamation intolerable; Bengal government must adopt stringent
measures
What we are witnessing now regarding the latest book of Dr.
Nazrul Islam, IPS and Additional Director General of Police of Bengal, Musalmander Karoniyo (What the Muslims
Should Do), is nothing but a clamor resulting from the sudden conflict between
views of the author and the reigning Trinamool-led Bengal government. Well, we
have nothing to do with it – whether it’s the government’s approach to seize
the book with thousands of its copies and a subsequent failure (all in all), harassment
of the publishing concern – Mitra & Ghosh Publishers – these happen to be matters
that can be sorted out in the legal arena best.
Similarly
whether Nazrul Islam has earned the wrath of the government for writing to the Home Secretary (on July 13) on how chit funds,
earning confidence of Trinamool Congress, were deceiving a great number of
people in Bengal doesn’t attract us also.
To
be precise, content of the book demands out attention most. Without doubt,
thanks to the governmental intervention, the book perceives a surge in its
sales and we need delve into this as well.
What’s
the content then?
It
has come to the knowledge that in Musalmander Karoniyo (What the Muslims Should
Do) the veteran IPS has put forward a few pertinent issues regarding the need of
secular education for Muslims in Bengal, Trinamool’s hoax to them by proffering
financial benefits to both Imams and Muazzins. It has also been learnt that in
the book he has also knocked TMC leaders for attending Iftaar parties without
keeping the binding daytime fast. The book states, "The words inshallah
and khuda hafiz cannot be said in the same sentence, but our leaders are doing
so, without knowing that they are actually hurting Islam." “What we needed was a secular university in
Murshidabad. Similarly, why should money be spent for creating new madrasas
instead of modern day schools?" the book says.
It’s
his personal opinion and is lacking any connection to Hindus.
But…………………
Musalmander Karoniyo doesn’t end here; it does also include myriad vituperative
remarks against Hindus too – ignored both by secular media and intellectuals as
usual. And Tridib
Chatterjee, General Secretary of Publishers and Booksellers Guild highlighted it
while speaking in a related debate on 24 Ghanta (Bengali News Channel)
yesterday.
What we have heard from him is that the book speaks
of the continual victimization of Muslims by Hindus in Bengal (?). No Hindu
stalwart of Bengal Renaissance including Rammohan Roy, Vidayasagar to Mahatma
Gandhi has been able to escape his criticism and as per his view, all were
engaged to champion Hindu interests and harm Muslims only (?).
A mere glance also proves that the book is also
skeptical of the sanctity of “Vande Mataram”, has termed Anandmath of Bankim
Chandra Chatterjee as fervent anti-Muslim and asked why Muslims should sing it
as the song’s each word defiles Islamic faith only.
The book states, furthermore, West Bengal from
1947 till date has been under the control of caste Hindus whose
one-and-only-agenda has been to victimize Muslims. He has urged the need to
form a Scheduled Caste Hindu-Muslim alliance in Bengal to wrest all power and end
Hindu politics in the state. As per him, all politicians including Buddhadeb
Bhattacharjee and Mamata Banerjee (known for their anti-Hindu tirades well) are
nothing but communal, working against Muslims all in all.
There are several other advocacies to form
anti-Hindu fronts.
And all these anti-Hindu perspectives are
neither abrupt nor simple fallout of any underlying resentment to Hindu supremacy
in all fields. This happens to be an intellectual face of anti-Hindu Jihad that
was (also) witnessed at a seminar organized
by West Bengal Muslim Association (WBMA) recently at Muslim Institute Hall in Kolkata,
spearheaded by Nazrul Islam and attended by 150 Muslims in general.
The veteran police officer spitted venom
against Hindus there, found expression in Musalmander
Karoniyo (What the Muslims Should Do). He stated,
“Muslims should get maximum opportunities to hold high posts and in Police
Force; but the government is not doing anything.”
An assortment of other statements of this
self-claimed neo-representative of Muslims in Bengal includes – “Among the
representatives elected to the Rajya-Sabha (Upper House)’, there are persons
speaking Urdu language; but there is not a single Bengali Muslim. Time has come
to give a reply to all of them”, “If the Government dismisses me for saying
such things in front of everyone, I will start agitation for Muslims.”
He made it clear then, Bengal in the decades following
independence has miserably failed to restore Muslims in the state – there has
been no Muslim Home Secretary or Police Commissioner, let alone any Chief
Minister. In this regard, Bengal as per him, is markedly different to
other states of the Union of India namely Maharashtra, Bihar or Rajasthan. The state
is led by Brahmins (amounting to merely 2% in Bengal) ever since 1947 and
that's why, he sheds tears for Hindu SC and Hindu ST people as well.
What the venomous Islamist IPS has failed to decipher is that his
every view opposing Hindus can be refuted with no trouble. With the scathing
attack on Vande Mataram, Nazrul Islam steps into shoes of Jinnah,
Liaquat Ali Khan and other leaders of Muslim League, responsible for
partitioning India, who, alleging revilement of Islam, made then ruling clique
curtail verses of original song of Vande Mataram.
Again, Muslims during partition in 1947 were given options either
to join Islamic Pakistan or Hindu-dominated India. Hence, these questions, now,
only portray Nazrul Islam’s fierce views and the danger we the Hindus are
heading fast towards.
Bengal government should not forget that Hindus have the potency
to change history still; any compromise in nabbing the dreaded IPS shall incite
Hindus only. They have suffered much but NO More.
And if “a third wave of radicalization among
Muslim youth” takes place by reading Musalmander Karoniyo, the first wave of
radicalization among Hindu youth will be there to take it on and defeat it with
a bloody struggle.
So………..Sadhu
Sabdhan! If the Bengal government fails to act now, Mamata will soon find
herself as the next edition of Nero – the only difference will be she will
watch helplessly how the entire state engulfs itself to a religious strife –
where Hindu masculinity will create new pages in history.
Stringent
actions have to be adopted against Musalmander Karoniyo (What the Muslims
Should Do) and its writer Nazrul Islam. Delay can become dangerous.
