MEMORANDUM
Sub: Serial blasts throughout India, the continuing spectre of
terrorism and Hindu Samhati's Silent March.
To
Shri Gopal Krishna Gandhi
The Hon'ble Governor of West Bengal
Raj Bhavan
Kolkata
Respected Sir,
After the serial blasts of Bengaluru and Ahmedabad, this spectre of
terror which has run unabated for the past 20 years and still
continues to run, has exposed us to some very uncomfortable questions.
That is how long should we continue this sham exercise called a 'Peace
Process', even though it is becoming painfully apparent that the
nameless, formless adversary of terrorism and their very well known
handlers and financiers across our eastern and western borders, cannot
be propitiated. However much we try.
How much more blood should flow and how many more lives should be lost
before the Government of India realizes the utter futility of its
position? Even as Pakistan continues to mastermind and train the
terrorist operations in this country we go on negotiating with this
ruthless entity. We confer the 'most favoured nation' status on
Pakistan - in matters of trade, while they continue to blow up our
citizens. We are providing an unending supply of food, medicines and
other necessities of life to Bangladesh while Bangladesh continues to
flood across our borders with millions of infiltrators and terrorists.
While we provide them with food, they, nourished by the same food,
train Jihadis to blow up their unsuspecting benefactors. For how long
must the citizens of India endure this unfunny farce of a 'Peace
Process' while their near and dear ones continue to die on the
streets?
On the 11th of September, 2001, nearly 3500 US citizens died in the
WTC bombings. After that not a single blast has taken place in the
USA. The US government did what was necessary to safeguard the lives
and liberty of its citizens. From 1994 onwards nearly 21000 ordinary
citizens and nearly 8000 security personnel have lost their lives in
terror related violence in India. Thousands and thousands more have
been seriously injured. All the Govt. of India has done in redress is
to issue meaningless words and empty gestures. The Government of India
has failed miserably in the most fundamental duty of governance - the
protection of life, liberty and property of its citizens.
In protest of this emasculated security policy of the government Hindu
Samhati has led a huge Silent Protest March through the city of
Kolkata today. The demands of this march are as follows:
-Hang Afzal Guru, the terrorist accused for the parliament attack,
immediately.
-Deal wih Pakistan and Bangladesh in the strictest manner possible
and, if necessary, sever all diplomatic and economic ties.
-All trains and busses to and fro from Pakistan and Bangladesh must be
stopped forthwith.
-All terrorist training camps in Pakistan and Bangladesh should be
destroyed by military force.
-Introduce a much stricter security act than POTA.
-Shut down all the Madrassas that teach Jihad.
-Scrap the outrageous report of the Sachar Committee and stop the
appeasement of minorities immediately.
-Stop infiltration from Bangladesh. If necessary, shoot the
Bangladeshi Muslim infiltrators at the border.
Thanking you.
Yours truly,
(TAPAN KUMAR GHOSH)
