MISCHIEVOUS MEDIA WITH MISCHIEVOUS NEWS ITEMS!



MISCHIEVOUS  MEDIA WITH MISCHIEVOUS NEWS ITEMS! 

AR Rehman, noted Indian Music Director and Oscar Award winner, when asked by media men on Amir Khan's recent statement,  referred to an incident when he was issued a fatwa by a Muslim organization some months back . But Indian media, particularly Times Of India and NDTV, have linked it with Amir Khan's statement to make it look as if RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE is because of Hindus / RSS/ VHP/ or BJP.  

There is a definite intent of the media to mislead the people by giving such head lines. Unfortunately, highly educated Indians are also being misled by such headlines without knowing the full contents. One of my friends, a retired Army officer, fell prey to this and remarked , " Look at what RSS was doing? " I had to clarify to him that it was NOT RSS  but a MUSLIM organization called Raza Academy of Pune, who had issued Fatwa to Rehman. Read the headlines on TIMES OF INDIA :-----

" AR REHMAN IDENTIFIES WITH AMIR KHAN AND FEELS WITH HIM, SAYS HE WAS IN THE SIMILAR SITUATION" 

It may be recollected that AR Rahman was referring to Mumbai-based Raza Academy's fatwa against him after he composed the music for Iranian film 'Muhammad: Messenger of God', which alleged that the title was humiliating to the Prophet. At that time, chief ministers of Delhi and UP had cancelled Rahman's concerts at the last minute. What a show of  religious tolerance by Arvind Kejriwal and Mulayam Singh Yadav! Not a whimper of a noise by anyone in the country. I think Javed Akhtar and Mahesh Bhat were holidaying some where and SRK was busy shooting his movies. Surprisingly, none of the award returning celebrities spoke about it, then.  No one heard Rahul Gandhi talking about it; nor that LIES BRIGADE of the Congress party.  

Dadri incident happened in the state of Uttar Pradesh and whole blame is palmed off to RSS. I am no supporter of RSS or these so called Hindu organizations but I am suspicious of Congress, who can play any mischief to come back to power. Dadri incident could well be an exploitation  by Vested interests, whether Congress or others of a 'Beef row' by some Hindu Organisations--- not necessarily, they were involved. 

As for as the issue of NOT allowing Pakistani Singers in Mumbai by Shiv Sena , it has nothing to do with Religion. It only showed opposition to Pakistan,  who is at war with India through its band of " Irregular Soldiers", called " Strategic Assets". How is it the rise of Religious intolerance? But media is making it look like a religious intolerance. It mixes Freedom of Speech with religious intolerance. It stinks of some mischief. 

Freedom of  speech is a two way traffic. It can not be one way movement. Well! If you have the rights to allow a Pakistani to release his book in India, others have the rights to oppose him. Media can not have the cake and eat it, too. It is gross violation of VOLTAIREAN PRINCIPLE of Freedom of Speech, who is alleged to have said something like this:  I disapprove of what you say but I will support you to my death in allowing you to say what you want to say. 

While I appreciate debate on religious intolerance, it must not be one sided blame game. This is what I infer from the present debate. I have no doubts, it has been orchestrated by mischievous Congress and Media is playing the role of its foot soldiers. No doubts, Congress has been helped by BJP's arrogant mouthpieces, who have no idea of how they were falling prey to Congress scheme of things. Shortsightedness of persons like Shaksi Maharajs and Yogi Adityanaths are providing ammunition to Congress shooters. This is a very dangerous game. Congress is playing very dirty games. 

Look at the allegations against Congress recently made to President of India in a memorandum by Sukhbir Badal, Deputy Chief Minister of Punjab . But media is dismissing it as Assmbly Elections tantrum of Akalis. Those, who live in Punjab, they know what is going on. "Bajwa- Arvinder " rivalry of present day Congress in Punjab is reminiscent of "Zail Singh - Darbara Singh" rivalry of the 70s of last decade, which led to the rise of Jarnail Singh Bhindrawale. A similar situation is being created by stooges of Rahul Gandhi and Media is dismissing it as an election stunt. 

Every Punjabi knows that recently held Sarbat Khalsa meeting of the Sikhs at Bhatinda was articulated by Congress. Some nasti and anti national resolutions were passed in the presence of Congress leaders of the state. Surprisingly, blind Indian Media took no notice of such a Congress presence in the meeting. The shortsightedness of selfish media could prove detrimental to India's nationhood. In the days of Competitive politics , Akalis might also adopt similar methods and the peace in Punjab would be disturbed. It has happened in the past and it can happen now. 

I therefore ore dismiss this entire debate on religious intolerance as manipulated and orchestrated by power hungrry congress and indian media is a willing or unwitting partner to a war against Indian nationhood. If the debate has to take place then, it must be all inclusive, not merely statements by Congress stooges. Return of awards is a drama by those people who were awarded these awards by congress regime and they are now returning the favour------- in the hope of bigger awards, if Congress returns to power. Who does not know where do lie the sympathies of SRK and Amir Khan? Warning to Media is: If Punjab goes back to the dark days of 80s and 90s of the last Century and India faces a second partition, then, Indian media would have to share the blame along with congress and its stooges. Excess of freedom and liberty is as bad as excess of Central control and discipline.
