[IAC#RG] Fwd: Why Mass agitation on jallikattu now in Tamil Nadu and not earlier ?

To

India Against Corruption

                                                                                 Why Mass agitation on jallikattu now in Tamil Nadu and not earlier ?

 

Jallikattu issue has been hanging  fire in  Tamil Nadu for several years now. But, the state has never witnessed this sort of mass agitation demanding jallikattu.

In a state  like Tamil Nadu, with around 700 lakh population, even if  0.1 % of the population (70000 people) join the agitation, it would  be termed  as mass agitation.

Many people wonder why this mass agitation has happened now and not earlier when Ms. Jayalalitha was the Chief Minister. The issue remained the same earlier and now  and therefore, the emotions should have been the same earlier and now.

Can anyone explain this?  Can we simply accept the theory that mob rule takes place when governance weakens ?

Dear Sir,

While your concern is legitimate,let me clarify on the two instances quoted by you-

1. It is an old problem and yet defied solution. It is not the first time as well. Recall Satluj-Yamuna canal dispute between Haryana and Punjab. It has been delibrated by the Supreme Court and its directions are not accepted by Punjab.Today the Politicians are fighting election in Punjab on the same issue and have vowed not to give a drop of water to Haryana Meanwhile land in Haryana has been acquired by the State Govt. and Canal dug up in anticipation of water. But there is no water nor the land available to the farmer.

2. Jallikatu- it is certainly an over-reach and best should have given directions to the State Govt. to prevent cruelty,if any rather than banning it. Surely you know that Indians have been living closest to the animals- sharing the same roof and joys and sorrows togather in rural India. Bulls have been venerated as a symbol of fertility. They are fed and taken care of by the whole community. I need not go into bullocks and bulls- as the one is a farm animal for agriculture and transport but the bull is to continue the progeny. Now coming to the cruelty part- is castarting a bull to use as a domestic animal no cruelty. Is killing of any animal not cruelty? Then why does not peta fight for killing the animals.They kill millions of birds and animals ,first by feeding them wrong feed and when diseased kill them. This is what perhaps PETA advocates.

If on certain festivals like New year day they have festivals like bullock cart races or camel racing you start calling them cruelty. Then Why not stop horse racing in the cities? If bulls disappear, the local breeds will gradually disappear and we will have only jersy cows through artificial insemination.

Definace by people happens when they feel the directions are not unjustified.

Other cases of over-reach are national anthem in cinema and control of sports bodies like BCCI.

judiciary has developed PIL legislation only during the last 30 years. But entertaining PILs without enough supporting data and justification may lead to such situations. They should insist that executive decisions should be taken only by the Govt.

Supreme court ordered Karnataka government to release certain quantity of Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu, which was defied by Karnataka government. Supreme court has earlier ordered that Jallikattu should not be conducted in Tamil Nadu and the case to review the order is still pending. However, in several places in Tamil Nadu , Jallikattu has been conducted defying the supreme Court order.

There have also been similar other  instances of defiance of supreme Court order in the past in variety of ways.

Possibly, the main reason for such defiance of judiciary is that it does not anymore command the type of respect that it did  earlier.

With supreme court judges refusing to have transparency in the appointment of judges , quite  a number of judges having been caught on corruption charges or accused of being corrupt, some former judges like Katju questioning the Supreme Court orders,  some of the controversial observations of the judges inside and outside the court premises, some judges sharing platform with those facing corruption and criminal charges , judiciary seems to be rapidly losing it's pivotal position and lofty image that it once enjoyed.

In such circumstances, perspective seem to be developing  among section of people that   the order of  judiciary  need not be considered sacroscent and can be defied if mass protest can be organized against the order.

So far, those who defy the court orders  by threatening to disrupt law and order have got away and courts give an appearance of being helpless in tackling such defiance.

This is a very unhealthy situation and can lead to anarchy.

With the credibility of the politicians and bureaucrats being so low, people seem to think that in the present conditions, judiciary should rise up to the occasion and punish the culprits and ensure fair play. It is increasingly becoming doubtful whether judiciary is  now cut out to play such role of remaining as a watch dog and conscience keeper of society.

In any case, even if some damage has been done to the reputation of judiciary in recent times, the judiciary's verdict should be accepted unquestioningly  by everyone to prevent a scenario of free for all.

Dear Sh. S. Roy 

I fully support your efforts to unravel this allegations because there is big money involved and it is not possible without police and political protection.

Dr. Harshvardhan has been living in west Delhi and that area has been his support base.

Vijay Goel is a resident of Chandni Chowk and that is his political base. He may not be a cabinet Minister like Dr. Harshvardhan, but as a State Minister certainly a member of Union Council of Ministers.

Kapil Sibbal never had any base in Old Delhi Chandni Chowk area.

Although it bears repetition AAP has proved to be a genie born out of the JanAndholan of 2012. Call it a foresight or knowledge of intimate affairs of the main actors of AAP, you had disassociated yourself during that period.

As their health minister,s appointment of a family relations and other monetary dealings are coming out including Maliwal,s there does not seem to be an end

Dr. Harsh Vardhan is the only Union Minister from Delhi. Mr. Arun Jaitley is from Amritsar. Mr. Vijay Goel is a Minister of State. Mr. Kapil Sibal is a former Union Minister from Delhi. Have I left anyone out ?

Its a completely malicious canard, so we expect AAP to produce their evidences. As Mr. Jung has recently said on TV, appointing anybody to a Govt job without equality of opportunity is a seriously corrupt matter.

Never heard of brothels in Chandni Chowk. GB road is the known area for brothels and way beyond Chandni Chowk.

There is another Uninion Minister from this area as well. So Dr. Harsh Vardhan name could be a conjucture.

The matter is still worth pursuing-either to prove Maliwal is malicious in making the allegation or to expose the concerned minister. The racket is certainly thriving through police/political protection either at State or Centre level.

Lalita K claims to now not even be a primary member of BJP after being
nominated as Chairperson NCW. The latest simlar show cause / summons
NCW issued is to the Congress Home Minister in Karnataka over the
Bangalore gropings.

It is for Arvind Kejriwal and his party to disclose their evidence
against Dr. Harsh Vardhan considering that it was Swati Maliwal who
stated at her press conference that a Union Minister and prominent
Delhi politician (making Harsh Vardhan the only suspect) is the patron

Ashutosh lost out to Dr. Harsh Vardhan from Chandni Chowk where these

Dear Justice Nath

You are absolutely correct that it deserves to be treated with contempt. In fact since the SC had outright rejected these "scurrilous" allegations and called for their deletion, I therefore intended to file a contempt petition in the SC against Mr. Ashutosh's act of filing these same Snoopgate allegations in the NCW to evade replying to my complaint about him making making outrageous sexual remarks about my deceased female ancestor.

For those interested the RTI no. is MOWCD/R/2016/50635  dt. 25.Oct.2016 (still unreplied) viewable at https://rtionline.gov.in/request/status.php using my present email ID.

I am now very reliably informed that Ms. Maneka Gandhi herself has intervened to instruct that my RTI is not to be replied to.

Had either my RTI been replied to or the NCW passed an order the case would have been different. But now any reasonable person would have reason to suspect something is fishy in Snoopgate matter and there must be some truth to the those "scurrillous allegations" levelled against Modi and Shah.

Dear Ms. Kumaramangalam,

Sub: Case / File no : 8/C160014050/2016/NCW/RS/NEE

Kindly refer to my appended email of 9.Oct.2016.

I am constrained to observe that it is well over 4 months now since the last hearing in the subject complaint and yet there is no order of the Hon'ble Commission in this matter for a complaint / counter-complaint alleging inter-alia sexual harassment by the present Prime Minister of India and the present President of the BJP Mr. Amit Shah made by Shri Ashutosh of Aam Aadmi Party.

 

To refresh your memory of this matter, (I am not giving the exact dates since these are on your file/s) you had summoned Mr. Ashutosh Gupta, National Spokesperson of Aam Aadmi Party, under NCW's statutory powers and which you announced on national television (Times Now) was based on my complaint against Ashutosh's outrageous and misogynistic article published by the "prestigious" news portal  NDTV.COM.

Accordingly, Mr. Ashutosh Gupta dutifully appeared before you, refsued to answer queries about his writings and and instead counter-complained about sexual harassments allegedly committed by Shri Narendra Modi and Shri Amit Shah, which allegations he tendered in writing along with certain electronic evidences.

Very shortly thereafter this hearing Shri Ashutosh gave a public statement outside NCW's office to the media saying that you had personally assured him that you would conduct an independent and fair inquiry into his complaint and would also summon Mr. Modi in the same way Ashutosh was summoned. A video of this statement broadcast live by NEWSX is at URL

Ashutosh rakes up harassement charges on PM Narendra Modi, cites snooping charges on Amit Shah

Thereupon another NEWX reporter interviewed you on Mr.Ashutosh's statement in your office. I was also present during this interview and I have have my recording where you confirmed that Mr. Ashutosh's "complaint" against Mr. Modi / Mr. Shah would also be registered and sent to the NCW's Complaint and Investigation unit.  A video of your statement broadcast live by NEWSX is at URL

NCW vs Ashutosh: NCW chief Lalitha Kumaramangalam speaks to NewsX exclusively

 

Thereafter when no order on my complaint was forthcoming, I sent you my reminder dt. 9.Oct.2016 and followed it up with an RTI request dated 25.Oct.2016 since I believed Mr. Ashutosh had committed criminal Contempt of the Supreme Court in your chambers. You had with great foresight officially videographed the proceedings. My RTI request is registered as no. MOWCD/R/2016/50635  dated 25.Oct.2016 and forwarded to your Commission by Shri V.S. Yadav (CPIO/MoWCD) very promptly. It is still not replied to.

In these circumstances wherein Institutions like the NCW and the DCW (Delhi Womens Commission) seem to be highly politicised paper tigers in the sense that NCW seemingly targets non-BJP politicians and the DCW Chairperson gets away with publicly imputing that one Dr. Harsh Vardhan (a BJP Union Minister) is running brothels on Delhi's GB Road, the complainants before you are fd up and constrained to give you final and clear warning to pass orders forthwith and dispose of the pending complaints against/by Mr. Ashutosh Gupta of Aam Aadmi Party.

In the alternative, I and the the INDIA AGAINST CORRUPTION jan andolan (to whom this email is being circulated) shall presume that no contempt has been committed by Mr. Ashutosh and that his allegations (NCW had summoned him in his capacity as Spokesperson Aam Aadmi Party) against Mr. Narendra Modi and Mr. Amit Shah in the "Snoopgate scandal" have been ascertained by NCW as being true and correct.

Since, I am given to understand that Mr Ashutosh had apparently submitted / deposed on 08.Sept.2016 that Mr.Modi and Mr. Amit Shah are as equally culpable of derogatory offences against women as he is, I am of the view that your Hon'ble Commission should pass an order in Mr. Ashutosh's matter as expeditiously as possible.

Dear Madam Chairperson,

1)  I would be obliged if you would kindly also include / implead me in the subject matter as a complainant against Shri Ashutosh Gupta (alias Ashutosh). I also pray that M/s NDTV.com be impleaded as an offender.

2)  My grievance is that Ashutosh and NDTV.com has published offensive, inaccurate, misleading, abusive, pedophilic, hateful, ethically objectionable, disparaging, or otherwise inappropriate material in the article accessible at
"http://www.ndtv.com/opinion/the-sex-was-consensual-private-act-why-aap-punished-its-man-1453374"
where Ashutosh has written inter-alia

"Indian history is full of examples of our leaders and heroes who had lived with their desires beyond social boundaries. Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru's reported affairs with many female colleagues were juicy gossip but it didn't spoil his political career. His relationship with Edwina Mountbatten is widely discussed. The entire world knew about it. Their affections continued till Pt. Nehru's last breath. Was it a sin? History is also witness to the fact that top leaders of the Congress in 1910s were worried about Gandhiji's relationship with Sarla Chaudhary, who was distantly related to Rabindra Nath Tagore. Gandhi Ji had confessed that Sarla was his spiritual wife. Kasturba Gandhi was very disturbed. C Rajagopalchari and other senior leaders of the party had to intervene. They persuaded, pressured, cajoled Gandhi-ji to leave Sarla. Gandhiji in his later days slept naked with his two nieces to experiment with celibacy. Pandit Nehru had told him not to do so as the country would rise against him but Gandhi-ji did not budge."

3) That although there was no such person as "Sarla Chaudhary" as described (which is probably a patently deliberate device devised by Ashutosh to claim she is a fictional character) it is obvious he is alluding to my deceased great-grand-aunt Sarala Debi Chaudhurani (who unfortunately has left behind no direct descendants to counter Ashutosh's calumny) using the despicable device of innuendo employed by gutter columnists.

4) I and my family are upset that NDTV.com website has published Ashutosh's distortions linking Mohandas Gandhi's sexual (masturbatory) fantasies to my deceased family members names to besmirch their iconic places in history. It is relevant to mention that Smt. Sarala Debi Chaudhurani is the pre-eminent feminist icon of India, prominent in nationalist and Congress circles and had written the musical score for both India's National Antem (ie. Jana Gana Mana) as well as the National song (ie. Bande Mataram). In fact these nation binding anthems were greatly popularised in Upper India by Smt. Sarala Debi of the highly nationalistic Adi Brahmo Samaj (a religious minority) of which I am an 'acharya' and an attack on Smt. Sarala Debi or Gurudev Rabindra Nath Tagore simply to defend a misogynistic sex-crazed rapist Minister is also an attack on our minority religion.

5) For your Eminence's information, Gandhi was never in India in 1910 (or even 1911, 1912, 1913....) whereas Pulitzer-Prize winning reporter Joseph Lelyveld writes that Gandhi was then (ie. since 1908) in a homo-erotic relationship with Hermann Kaltenbach in South Africa. Please see the ABC TC (US) url
http://abcnews.go.com/Health/gandhi-book-claims-indian-leader-bisexual-racist/story?id=13255847

Accordingly, I say that if at all the Congress Party or Ms. Kasturba Gandhi ('Ba') was very disturbed with Mr. Gandhi in 1910s, it was because of Mr. Gandhi's homo-erotic activities and homosexual / pedophilic proclivities rather than any alleged relationship (sexual or otherwise) with Smt. Sarala Debi Chaudhurani.

 

6) Accordingly, I sincerely hope that Hon'ble Commission impleads me as a complainant and strongly indicts Shri Ashutosh Gupta and NDTV.com. I also seek permission to submit my evidence during proceedings as and when directed by your honor.

PS : I am a non-political person and am filing this in my personal capacity as a relative of Smt. Sarala Debi Chaudhurani (deceased) to defend her honour.

 

Sincerely,

Sarbajit Roy

Sub: Case / File no : 8/C160014050/2016/NCW/RS/NEE

Kindly refer to my appended email of 9.Oct.2016.

I am constrained to observe that it is well over 4 months now since the last hearing in the subject complaint and yet there is no order of the Hon'ble Commission in this matter for a complaint / counter-complaint alleging inter-alia sexual harassment by the present Prime Minister of India and the present President of the BJP Mr. Amit Shah made by Shri Ashutosh of Aam Aadmi Party.

 

To refresh your memory of this matter, (I am not giving the exact dates since these are on your file/s) you had summoned Mr. Ashutosh Gupta, National Spokesperson of Aam Aadmi Party, under NCW's statutory powers and which you announced on national television (Times Now) was based on my complaint against Ashutosh's outrageous and misogynistic article published by the "prestigious" news portal  NDTV.COM.

Accordingly, Mr. Ashutosh Gupta dutifully appeared before you, refsued to answer queries about his writings and and instead counter-complained about sexual harassments allegedly committed by Shri Narendra Modi and Shri Amit Shah, which allegations he tendered in writing along with certain electronic evidences.

Very shortly thereafter this hearing Shri Ashutosh gave a public statement outside NCW's office to the media saying that you had personally assured him that you would conduct an independent and fair inquiry into his complaint and would also summon Mr. Modi in the same way Ashutosh was summoned. A video of this statement broadcast live by NEWSX is at URL

Thereupon another NEWX reporter interviewed you on Mr.Ashutosh's statement in your office. I was also present during this interview and I have have my recording where you confirmed that Mr. Ashutosh's "complaint" against Mr. Modi / Mr. Shah would also be registered and sent to the NCW's Complaint and Investigation unit.  A video of your statement broadcast live by NEWSX is at URL

Thereafter when no order on my complaint was forthcoming, I sent you my reminder dt. 9.Oct.2016 and followed it up with an RTI request dated 25.Oct.2016 since I believed Mr. Ashutosh had committed criminal Contempt of the Supreme Court in your chambers. You had with great foresight officially videographed the proceedings. My RTI request is registered as no. MOWCD/R/2016/50635  dated 25.Oct.2016 and forwarded to your Commission by Shri V.S. Yadav (CPIO/MoWCD) very promptly. It is still not replied to.

In these circumstances wherein Institutions like the NCW and the DCW (Delhi Womens Commission) seem to be highly politicised paper tigers in the sense that NCW seemingly targets non-BJP politicians and the DCW Chairperson gets away with publicly imputing that one Dr. Harsh Vardhan (a BJP Union Minister) is running brothels on Delhi's GB Road, the complainants before you are fd up and constrained to give you final and clear warning to pass orders forthwith and dispose of the pending complaints against/by Mr. Ashutosh Gupta of Aam Aadmi Party.

In the alternative, I and the the INDIA AGAINST CORRUPTION jan andolan (to whom this email is being circulated) shall presume that no contempt has been committed by Mr. Ashutosh and that his allegations (NCW had summoned him in his capacity as Spokesperson Aam Aadmi Party) against Mr. Narendra Modi and Mr. Amit Shah in the "Snoopgate scandal" have been ascertained by NCW as being true and correct.

Dear Ms. Kumaramangalam,

Sub: Case / File no : 8/C160014050/2016/NCW/RS/NEE

 

I am constrained to observe that it is well over a month now since the last hearing in the subject complaint and yet there is no order of the Hon'ble Commission.

Since, I am given to understand that Mr Ashutosh had apparently submitted / deposed on 08.Sept.2016 that Mr.Modi and Mr. Amit Shah are as equally culpable of derogatory offences against women as he is, I am of the view that your Hon'ble Commission should pass an order in Mr. Ashutosh's matter as expeditiously as possible.

Dear Madam Chairperson,

1)  I would be obliged if you would kindly also include / implead me in the subject matter as a complainant against Shri Ashutosh Gupta (alias Ashutosh). I also pray that M/s NDTV.com be impleaded as an offender.

2)  My grievance is that Ashutosh and NDTV.com has published offensive, inaccurate, misleading, abusive, pedophilic, hateful, ethically objectionable, disparaging, or otherwise inappropriate material in the article accessible at
"http://www.ndtv.com/opinion/the-sex-was-consensual-private-act-why-aap-punished-its-man-1453374"
where Ashutosh has written inter-alia

"Indian history is full of examples of our leaders and heroes who had lived with their desires beyond social boundaries. Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru's reported affairs with many female colleagues were juicy gossip but it didn't spoil his political career. His relationship with Edwina Mountbatten is widely discussed. The entire world knew about it. Their affections continued till Pt. Nehru's last breath. Was it a sin? History is also witness to the fact that top leaders of the Congress in 1910s were worried about Gandhiji's relationship with Sarla Chaudhary, who was distantly related to Rabindra Nath Tagore. Gandhi Ji had confessed that Sarla was his spiritual wife. Kasturba Gandhi was very disturbed. C Rajagopalchari and other senior leaders of the party had to intervene. They persuaded, pressured, cajoled Gandhi-ji to leave Sarla. Gandhiji in his later days slept naked with his two nieces to experiment with celibacy. Pandit Nehru had told him not to do so as the country would rise against him but Gandhi-ji did not budge."

3) That although there was no such person as "Sarla Chaudhary" as described (which is probably a patently deliberate device devised by Ashutosh to claim she is a fictional character) it is obvious he is alluding to my deceased great-grand-aunt Sarala Debi Chaudhurani (who unfortunately has left behind no direct descendants to counter Ashutosh's calumny) using the despicable device of innuendo employed by gutter columnists.

4) I and my family are upset that NDTV.com website has published Ashutosh's distortions linking Mohandas Gandhi's sexual (masturbatory) fantasies to my deceased family members names to besmirch their iconic places in history. It is relevant to mention that Smt. Sarala Debi Chaudhurani is the pre-eminent feminist icon of India, prominent in nationalist and Congress circles and had written the musical score for both India's National Antem (ie. Jana Gana Mana) as well as the National song (ie. Bande Mataram). In fact these nation binding anthems were greatly popularised in Upper India by Smt. Sarala Debi of the highly nationalistic Adi Brahmo Samaj (a religious minority) of which I am an 'acharya' and an attack on Smt. Sarala Debi or Gurudev Rabindra Nath Tagore simply to defend a misogynistic sex-crazed rapist Minister is also an attack on our minority religion.

5) For your Eminence's information, Gandhi was never in India in 1910 (or even 1911, 1912, 1913....) whereas Pulitzer-Prize winning reporter Joseph Lelyveld writes that Gandhi was then (ie. since 1908) in a homo-erotic relationship with Hermann Kaltenbach in South Africa. Please see the ABC TC (US) url
http://abcnews.go.com/Health/gandhi-book-claims-indian-leader-bisexual-racist/story?id=13255847

Accordingly, I say that if at all the Congress Party or Ms. Kasturba Gandhi ('Ba') was very disturbed with Mr. Gandhi in 1910s, it was because of Mr. Gandhi's homo-erotic activities and homosexual / pedophilic proclivities rather than any alleged relationship (sexual or otherwise) with Smt. Sarala Debi Chaudhurani.

 

6) Accordingly, I sincerely hope that Hon'ble Commission impleads me as a complainant and strongly indicts Shri Ashutosh Gupta and NDTV.com. I also seek permission to submit my evidence during proceedings as and when directed by your honor.

PS : I am a non-political person and am filing this in my personal capacity as a relative of Smt. Sarala Debi Chaudhurani (deceased) to defend her honour.

 

Sincerely,

Sarbajit Roy
