SECULARISM AND POLITICAL CONDOMS------ SOME RANDOM SHOTS!

What does secularism mean in Indian context? Here is what I feel :
It is a term used to :-
(a) Keep Muslim community illiterate and backward with the sole purpose of garnering their votes.
(b) keep the other minorities in constant fear of " Imagined Hindu majority" which in reality does not exist. (There is NO Hindu religion like ISLAM, CHRISTANITY or even JUDAISM. "Hindu", as in current use, is a divided entity into castes, subcastes, 'Gotras' 'sub gotras' and other regional- specific varients, who have their own guiding principles unlike Muslims and Christians)
Congress, the longest ruling party of India, is an expert in the political use of this term, Secularism, and they have been able to exploit it cleverly since the early 80s of the last Century. Surprisingly , other parties have also picked up this tantrum. However , most of them do not realize that Congress is one step ahead of them. They use these parties as POLITICAL CONDOMS.
Non - Congress politicians have NOT learnt any lessons from Charan Singh experience in 1979 ;Chandrasekhar experience in 1990 and Deve Gowda/ IK Gujral experience of 1997--- Congress is an expert in USING and THROWING people and organizations ---- but there is something in this HONEY BEE WEB, nay MONEY BEE WEB of Congress that despite being used and thrown ---- LAALUS, MAYA'S, ,KARUNANIDHIS, PASWAN, ABDULLAS OF KASHMIR and many more such regional satraps continue to desperately cling to it.
The MODUS OPERANDI of Congress is to allow these satraps to loot the public while they are in government and then used the CBI and IB TO BLACKMAIL them. These DOORMATS of Congress keep harping about SECULARISM------ a Congress MANTRA to keep the nation divided on UNFOUNDED FEARS CREATED for MINORITIES. Some of them can not even spell out the word SECULARISM.
Latest pin up BOYS of Congress , besides Mulayam Singh Yadav, are NITISH KUMAR and .YEDDIRUIPPA. Surprisingly, Babu Singh Kushwaha must be crying at his fate, for Congress did not show any use for him, as it is doing for YEDDIRUIPPA. If there was ever a NOBLE PRIZE for making POLITICAL DUDS, I would certainly recommend Congress party of India. It sure knows the use of political condoms.
Mamta Bannerjee has realised as to how foolish she had been in UNDERSESTIMATING CONGRESS . She thought she could arm twist the Congress and UPA. Little did she realise that Congress had only a limited use for her. Since Congress has found a more willing partner in Mulayam Singh Yadav-----Mamta's utility was no more felt------She is in such a position now that she does not even know if she was coming or going.
Mamta Bannerjee claimed , so said Times of India news item, that a lot of under hand deals, manipulations and exchange of big money was taking place for July 19, 2012, Presidential elections. She ought to know this. I agree with Mamta B.---- Whatever her style of functioning, she is upright and honest---- she threw out the CORRUPT and communal COMMIES--- using their weapon of strikes, hold-ups and agitations. I admire her for this but she failed to understand congress, though she comes from the same party.
Secularism is a convenient tool devised to keep opposition divided. Fools in BJP and RSS do not understand this. They have to take two steps towards Muslims to break this log jam. I say TWO STEPS because then, only Muslims would CONSIDER to listen to them. Joining and voting for BJP might be a far cry as yet. Without broadbasing itself, BJP or NDA can not think of taking on the Congress.
The so called SECULARISTSi.e. Congress, Left, , DMK, SP, RJD, BSP etc are only fooling the people to garner MUSLIM votes. Illiteracy amongst majority of Muslims and their religious orthodoxy helps these uncouth and unprincipled political parties. TO KEEP MUSLIMS BACKWARD AND ILLITERATE IS THEIR SOLE AGENDA , SO AS TO EASILY EXPLOIT THEM ON DANGERS OF HINDU MAJORITY. Rather than teaching them HOW TO FISH, they offer the community lobes of fish to satiate their hunger.In fact the community has been deliberately made dependent on political doles. They have succeeded because of selfish Muslim leaders.
Mulayam thinks his luring and ditching Mamta was a master stroke. He doesn't realise that he is nothing but a DISPOSABLE ITEM of USE for the Congress. Mulayam Singh Yadav first, teamed up with Mamta Bannerjea to denounce the candidacy of Parnab Mukherjee for the post of President of India, then he suddenly made a 180 degree turn and backed him up. What happened? It was to save his son ---a first time cM of UP, from menacing intrigues of Congress. After all they all promote their families through the POLITICAL CIRCUS, which is India. Karuna Nidhi, Mulayam, PS Badal, Chautala, Ajit singh, Jagmohan reddi, and many more----they are all the Dynastic kings of Political Kingdoms , now flourushing in India.
Politics is a family business in India---- and in family- business- ethos, merit has no relevance--- baton passes from father to son/ daughter. Did you ever wonder as to what was the real cause of poor governance or miss governance in India? It is the rise of ONE- LEADER PARTIES AND THEIR DYNASTIC TENDENCIES. In the politics of HORSE TRADING in this country, congress has the large expertise--- it can buy and kick people like MS YADAV or MAMTA B.--- because they suit their plans---- Indian people are the biggest fools who support such salable politicians. They should know what awaits them post 2014. As the saying goes LIKE PEOPLE , LIKE LEADERS-------- Indian people deserve the leaders they have------- why cry and crib , if you are prepared to sell your vote for a bottle of WHISKY or a laptop, TV, COMPUTER or such freebies. Ask me , it is the Indian public who should be held responsible for rampant corruption, violence and terrorism. It is pointless blaming politicians! Check out the RASCAL IS WITHIN EACH ONE OF US!!
If some of us, whether individuals or Communities and organisations are being used as CONDOMS by politicians or the political parties then, fault lay with us-----it lay with the wrong usage of the word SECULARISM ----And we do not realise what we call secularism is actually a synonym of CONDOM-----nothing more, nothing less!

Rajee sir, fantastic analysis of current Indian political scenario. I strongly believe we are at the socio-political crossroads now. We do not know which way we are going or which way to take. A big disaster is looming large and waiting to happen unless some miraculous act happnes, which is unlikely. See the the current support base of Anna Hazare.
By the way, you missed one - two big names while mentioning dynastic politics. Sharad Pawar and also presidential aspirant Pranab Mukherjee. In regional level there are many. In Maharashtra, there is Excise Minister Mr. Ganesh Naik, whose elder son is MP from Thane Loksabha constituency, younger son is MLA from Airoli assembly constituency and his bhatija (Brother's son) is Mayor of Navi Mumbai city.
May only God help this country.

Dear VSG SIR,
Thanks a lot for you wonderful words. I am obliged.
Yes, I agree with you. We are really caught in a political dead end , where we don,t know what to do.
The blind-men of these regional parties can not see beyond their nose and they are willing errand boys of the MADAM. She exploits them because they want to be exploited.
NITISH had promised much but has fallen prey to his personal agenda. But I am surprised by Bal THACKREY---- what made him go to CON- GROSS party. Even Mamta might go there after some whinnying noise.
Thanks a lot.
Regards.
Rajee.

Dear Ashu,
Thanks for your kind words --- I am honored.
Yes, I have deliberately cut down my posts and visits to Sulekhablogs. I find it has become a place where difference of opinion is taken as an offence . As you are aware, I don,t take nonsense from anyone--- whoever he might be---- so, best is to avoid these PUBLICITY SEEKERS through Negative approach. In any case, Sulekha is no more a centre of Knowledge but a collection of small minds--- who keep crying on featuring, comments and recommendations---- Being a poet, I don,t like to engage with them---- because if you get upset, it breaks your rhythm and thoughts
Yes, I am away to USA ---- I shall be back in November.
Regards.
Rajee

Dear raghvareddi Sir,
Thanks a lot --- your words soothing to the mind. Our politicians are all dyed in one color------ the color of PERSONAL AGENDA. National interests be damned
This irritates me-----

Dear KB sir,
Thanks for your wonderful views.----- I am not anti politics or politicians -- but I am getting sick of their unprincipled stand---- guys like Nitish promise a lot but get caught in the arithmatics of politics and do the same things what they accused others before coming to power.
I think, time has come when a training academy for the young politicians has to be set up and they ought to be disciplined ---- ( what a red herring by me!--- needs a debate----- this is why I put it here )
Regards.
Rajee.

Dear Rajeeji,
I greatly liked this frank and hard-hitting piece! It contains nothing but real home-truths.
I loved your maths which is secularism=condom. A disposable and useful thing!!! Congressmen love condoms!!
The worst multi-billion dollar looters are the Congress leaders and not other Party leaders who are pickpockets comparatively. At the top of that is the Dynasty. Rajeeji, the problem starts from there and not from the people. The people are ulloos, of course. But you cannot eliminate people but you can get rid of the evil Dynasty. Why not Congressmen throw the Dynasty out and run India with Indian blood?
Top Congressmen are happy that they can get the KGB money tap opened whenever they want, and Sonia will open the tap for them. The boot-licking happens only because of this.
The Regional satraps are child-play for the Queen Bee which has the tap for billions of dollars.
It is shameful that a 5th class passed woman from abroad is presiding over our destiny with our own money taken out through Bofors and other routes.
Cheers and regards!

Dear Uncle,
Wonderful to see you back.You have written so apt that nothing more can be added to it.Please keep writing and coming on Sulekha.Its a shame that such a vibrant place once has now become so dull .I think more than half of the bloggers do not blog now.As a result there are very few quality blogs.
I was anticipating this from last two years and finally it has happened.

You have given an objective narration about the term Secularism and the actual practices.

Dear Kushwaha,
Enjoyed the synonym of secularism thoroughly. You have painted the tapestry of vile politicians who are happy to be used as such provided the lubrication enables the elevation of their sons and daughters in the political hierarchy. Their basic greed is alrteady fulfilled but to establish some heredity rights the obeisance and secularist ideology serves a great purpose ! Nitish is the latest devotee with Lallu and Mulayam having already tested its efficacy . But the high sounding word is hardly understood since it is always laced with some hidden privileges that keep the minorities bound in its silken embrace. Tell them, you can have a second language as Urudu,marry your daughter as per Mohammedan Law any time after puberty, any number of wives, subsidy for Haj and we will not interfere with your triple Talaq - they are more than happy and you have almost Bukhari at your door singing your praise. That the poor muslim minority has not realised this trick for past 60 years is their destined misery !
