YES WE NEED ACTION & RIGHT                                                     NOW:NAXALISM                      

" तुम उसके लिए शोक करते हो जो शोक करने के योग्य नहीं हैं, और फिर भी ज्ञान की बाते करते हो.बुद्धिमान व्यक्ति ना जीवित और ना ही मृत व्यक्ति के लिए शोक करते हैं." : BHAGWATGEETA 

THE QUOTE ABOVE SUMS UP WHAT I REALLY NEED TO EMPHASISE IN THIS SHORT WRITEUP OF MINE....FOR THOSE WHO WISH AN ENGLISH INTERPRETATION IT MEANS.

"You grieve for those who are not worthy of grief, and yet speak the words of wisdom. The wise grieve neither for the living nor for the dead."

THE RECENT KILLINGS IN CHATTISGARH BRING TO THE FOREFRONT  A GRUESOME MIXTURE  OF BETRAYAL,POLITICS,UNSETTLED CLAIMS,AN UNSATISFIED CITIZENRY,AND A FAILED POLITICAL AND BEAURAUCRATIC SYSTEM THAT HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO DO JUSTICE TO WHAT THEY REALLY POSESS,THE POWER TO RUN AND CHANGE THE FACE OF THE COUNTRY.

THE NAXAL ATTACKS ,KILLING TOP STATE LEVEL POLITICIANS OF A NATIONAL PARTY AS ALSO OTHERS GUARDING THEM CAN NOT BE JUSTIFIED BY TAKING RECOURSE TO ANY MEASURES(SPECIFICALLY THOSE SUGGESTED BY THE SO CALLED HUMAN RIGHTS ACTIVISTS,BY THE WAY ,WHERE ARE THEY RIGHT NOW???). SUCH COLLECTIVE FAILURE OF THE SYSTEM HAS SHAKEN THE VERY FOUNDATION OF OUR DEMOCRACY. WHEN THE PEOPLE ARE NOT SAFE EVEN INSIDE THE BORDERS,HOW CAN WE THINK OF A SAFETY BEYOND THEM? 

THERE WERE ALSO REPORTS OF NAXALITES KILLING A TOP 'SALWA JUDUM' VOLUNTEER A FEW DAYS AFTER THE INCIDENT,AND NAXALS HAVE ALSO WARNED OF BIGGER ATTACKS SPECIFICALLY IN BIGGER CITIES. IF EVEN THIS DOESN'T ALARM THE GOVT, THEN WHAT ELSE WILL??

THERE ARE MANY WAYS OF COMING OUT OF THIS MENACE,ONE IS THE 'SRI LANKA' WAY(LTTE) (BY HUNTING THEM DOWN)AND THE OTHER BY WAYS AND MEANS SUGGESTED BY THE INTELLECTUALS BUT NOT BROUGHT TO FORCE BY THE POLITICALLY INSPIRED BEAURACRACY AND THEIR 'CONSTITUTIONALLY' ELECTED  BOSSES.

AND THAT IS WHAT HAS LED TO THIS PROBLEM DEVELOPING INTO CATASTROPHIC PROPORTIONS.

I MAY AGAIN QUOTE FROM THE SACRED TEXT OF GEETA

" Perform your obligatory duty, because action is indeed better than inaction.”

WHAT I WISH TO SAY IS THAT THE TIME IS RIPE THAT A FULL FLEDGED  'NATIONAL POLICY ON INTERNAL REBELLIONS AND THEIR SOLUTIONS'    BE FINALISED.

THERE MAY BE MANY OPTIONS AS TO HOW TO IMPLEMENT THEM,WHAT IS REALLY THE MACRO REASONS BEHIND THESE RECURRING INSTANCES NEED TO BE BOUGHT OUT AND A CONTINUED PROGRAMME TO ELIMINATE THEM BE TAKEN UP.

LIKE PROVISION OF EXTRA FUNDS AND DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMES IN THESE AREAS,SO THAT RAPID DEVELOPMENT PROVIDED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE,ALSO MILITARY HELP BE TAKEN WHEREVER THERE ARE THREATS TO THESE PROGRAMMES.

THE GOVT. NEEDS TO BRING OUT POLICIES WHEREIN IT IS POSSIBLE TO REACH TO THE VILLAGERS IN THESE AREAS AND SENSITISE THEM ABOUT GOVT. INITIATIVES AND HOW THEY CAN BE PARTNERS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE COUNTRY.

THE POLITICS-NAXAL NEXUS BE BROKEN BY CAREFUL SCRUTINY AND ALL POWER AND BACKUP SOURCES THEY POSSES BE CUT THROUGH.

SUCH MEASURE CAN BE TERMED AS LONG TERM OR 'MACRO LEVEL 'ACTIVITIES ,BUT WE ALSO NEED THE ACTION PER SE POLICIES(MICRO LEVEL), THE PEOPLE INVOLVED IN THESE ATTACKS NEED TO BE TAUGHT A LESSON,HOW CAN ANYBODY BE LET TO  GET AWAY AFTER COMITTING ATROCITIES ON HUMANITY IN A COUNTRY THAT CLAIMS TO HAVE A 'RULE OF LAW' .

WE SAY THAT THEY ARE OUR BROTHERS AND FELLOWMEN BUT DONT WE FILE POLICE CASES AGAINST OUR FELLOW CITIZENS WHEN THEY DO WRONG...ARENT NORMAL CITIZENS GIVEN CAPITAL PUNISHMENT? WHOVEVER GOES AGAINST THE SOCIETY AND ITS LAID DOWN NORMS OF MUTUAL LIVING NEED TO BE CONTROLLED AND PUNISHED IF NEED BE.

ALSO THOSE WHO COMMIT SUCH GRUESOME CRIMES CANNOT BE PARDONED ON GROUNDS OF 'HUMANITY' BECAUSE THEY ARENT HUMAN AFTER ALL, AS HAS BEEN JUSTLY LAID DOWN BY THE SUPREME COURT IN THE RECENT DECISION OF THE 'BHULLAR'S" CASE.

WHAT I SAY NOW MAY FIND MANY TAKERS AS ALSO MANY HOLDING AN OPINION COMPLETELY AGAINST MY  VIEWS,AND I RESPECT THEM,BUT ITS A DEMOCRACY AND I HAVE ALL THE RIGHTS TO SPEAK MY MIND....

'WHAT DO WE DO WHEN A WILD DOG GETS RABIES AND IS DECLARED MAD????DO WE KEEP HIM AT HOME OR IN OUR MOHALLAS,SOCIETIES OR NEAR US?NO ,WHAT DO WE DO WHEN THERE ARE FLU'S?LIKE THE BIRD FLU? DO WE KEEP THEM WITH US? NO,WE KILL THEM,SO THAT THE OTHER SPECIES IN GENERAL AND COMMUNITY IN SPECIFIC IS SAVED FROM SUCH A DISEASE....WHAT WE DO WHEN AN ALIEN COUNTRY ATTACKS US?WE FIGHT AND KILL THOSE AGAINST US.... DONT WE? AND WE REJOICE ON OUR MILITARY'S MIGHT....THEN WHY DO WE LAY DOWN DIFFERENT RULES FOR THOSE WHO ARE LIVING AMONGST US AND CREATING HAVOC...ARENT THEY MORE DANGEROUS THAN OUR CUSTOMAY ENEMIES? YES THEY ARE......

WHAT GOVT NEEDS TO DO IS PROVIDE A COMPREHENSIVE POLICY  CONTAINING BOTH THE MACRO AND MICRO ASPECTS .

FOR SHORT TERM ,POLICIES THAT OF COMBAT AGAINST THESE HARCORE CRIMINALS,BRINGING THEM TO THE DOORS OF JUSTICE ,THEY SHOULD BE HOWEVER GIVEN A CHANCE TO SURRENDER AND BE TOLD THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO GET THEIR RIGHTS IN A DEMOCRACY...=.SIT AROUND A TABLE AND DISCUSS..OTHERWISE THERE AS SO MANY INTEREST GROUPS IN THIS  COMPOSITE CULTURE CALLED ' INDIA' THAT IF WE BOW DOWN TO ONE GROUP,MANY MORE ARE BOUND TO APPEAR....!!!!!!!
