It Is Time for Hindutva

BHARAT IS SUFFERING: WAKE UP HINDUS: UTHTO JAAGO:

 IS IT TIME FOR HINDUTVA? (Yes definitely!)

Now that everything has been tried since 1947 and the stench from New Delhi has increased beyond endurance it may be time for Bharat to return to Hindutva. The Supreme Court had defined Hinduism as a way of life. The present writer believes that this is too soft a definition and does not emphasize sufficiently the fact that India is a Hindu country by its age long culture and civilization. The net result of this definition is a slow amnesia that has begun to overtake the Hindu population.

A stronger formulation such as that advocated by Savarkar may be the right way to go. Hindutva is the ongoing adherence to the Pitr Bhumi and the Mathrubhumi and must be accompanied by the concept of Punya Bhumi (Sacred Land). This is, of course, a politically incorrect statement to make and no doubt the ‘liberal’ and the deracinated Hindus will be jumping up and down, not to mention the minorities who have long been molly coddled under the rubric of minorityism, and who have their own vested interests in retaining the word ‘secular’. One can expect in advance some flag waving and shouts of ‘fascism’, ‘Nazism’ and so on.

Nevertheless, the call must be made, so that the majority population of Hindus are inoculated against the devastating effects of globalization, the ceding of their land to hostile agents and against the evils of conversion activity and at the same time have a positive and effective alternative before them which will be a Hindu alternative, not some mish mash of so called ‘secular’ ideas. The minority community cannot seriously object to the concepts of Pitr Bhumi and Mathrubhumi since both are straightforward ways of respecting one’s ancestors (Pitr) and the latter again is a worldwide reference to Motherland (Mathrubhumi), although here too the Muslim community may object since there is a discriminatory bias in them against a female object of devotions.

Punya Bhumi will definitely be problematic for the minority Christians and Muslims. For them, Punya Bhumi (Sacred Land) is associated with the Holy Land and with Saudi Arabia respectively. Does this automatically preclude Hindus worshipping Bharat as Punya Bhumi as long as it is not foisted on the minority communities? The answer is no. The objection to Vande Mataram as the national anthem was not so much the devotion to Punya Bhumi as to the idea of worshipping anything else but Allah (according to Muslims) and to the alleged anti Muslim sentiments of the lyric by Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyaya (1882). It would be ridiculous to say that minority communities can have a Punya Bhumi elsewhere, but only Hindus cannot call the land in which they were born, Punya Bhumi. The coincidence of Janma Bhumi (land of birth) and Punya Bhumi is an affliction according to hostile forces, a disease that Hindus suffer from! Perhaps the idea behind this perverse accusation is that Hindus should also consider their Punya Bhumi to be elsewhere but not in the land of their birth!

Next comes the question of who is a Hindu? Savarkar had not sufficiently clarified this question except mainly in geographical terms. There are long glowing descriptions of the Indian landscape in his book – Who is a Hindu? For the Hindu the Indian landscape is more than the object of a patriotic invocation of the history and geography of the land. It is the land where the Vedic seers presented their vision of the Devas and Devatas that preside over the land. Hence the Vedas are apaureshya (not of human origin) and are eternal. They represent the structure of the universe as it appeared to the Vedic seers. Hence too the importance of the Devas and Devatas who were worshipped in Vedic rituals, and continue (being worshipped) in temples and private residences, and therefore are referred to as murtis (not idols).

This entire package as it were, of the Vedic Agamic tradition is what constitutes Hinduism. A Hindu then can be defined as an individual who accepts the Vedic Agamic tradition. This may or may not entail a claim to the fact that it should be universalized. That is a secondary issue. Charity, as they say, begins at home.

Until the barbarian invasions and the colonial occupation the above premise regarding the Vedic Agamic tradition was never questioned, and (it) constituted the unity of the country. The native born religions such as Buddhism, Jainism and Sikkhism became part of the Hindu landscape. (These are the offshoots from the Vedic dharma.)  The introduction of concepts such as secularism and majoritarianism came only after the colonial occupation. These represent, in the opinion of the present writer, an intrusion into the Hindu world view; with deliberate aim to subvert and destroy it. The insertion of that word into the Indian Constitution was an afterthought, brought about by misguided Hindus.

The word ‘secular’ has to be revisited carefully and outside of the baleful gaze of those Hindus who are still star struck by the Macaulay agenda of creating Indians who are Hindu by blood but are English (read Western) in convictions and in their thinking. At any rate, Macaulay’s project was not aimed at attaining some loft goals of secularism. It was a straightforward exercise in brainwashing and in destroying the native culture so that there would be a race of people who would be either submissive or accomplices to the looting of their country.

One need not, however, throw the baby out with the bathwater and dismiss the word ‘secular’ altogether, nor do we need to embrace it in its totality. In other words, it can be accepted to the extent that it offers new rational insights into the human polity and to the extent that it does not impinge on Hindu interests. What this latter formula means is that while motherhood and apple pie ideals should be retained, they cannot always be so retained. For example, the discriminatory provisions of the Indian Constitution against Hindus must clearly be rejected. A bogus universalism at that stage will not do. It is not even clear how and why a secular constitution should have legislation that is clearly discriminatory towards one community. A good example of discrimination against the majority community is the Hindu Religious Endowment Act which enables governments to loot Hindu temples with impunity. There is no such legislation against the minority community.

We often witness opposition party members hastening to say that they are ‘secular,’ not communal, even while Hindu interests are at stake. Nor should the false accusations of majoritarianism be quickly accepted and used to make Hindus feel apologetic and hasten to add that they are not majoritarian. This word was used effectively by John Stuart Mill to defend individual freedoms in Britain, not to defend minority interests. Hence, the word ‘majoritarian’ is a false attribution aimed at the Hindu majority when they claim that they are being discriminated against.

Again, Hindus are stung and start back when the word ‘communal’ is hurled against them.

There is no need to feel apologetic about the majority community defending its interests, especially in a situation where the minority has been increasing its demands for preferential treatment at the expense of the majority. Opposition party members are embarrassed to proudly wear the label ‘communal'(read Hindu) because they have been terrorized by the ‘secular’ brigade, which since the Nehruvian era have occupied the commanding heights of education, employment, political power and even rewritten Indian history according to the high command. One need not mention the enormous funds that go to support this activity, both from within the country and from abroad.

All of the above requires that a clearer and more emphatic view of Hindutva is advanced without further delay so that a purely defensive ‘ bringing up the rear’ approach is abandoned. It has to be a two pronged approach: the clearing of the decks in that erroneous views of Indian history and of Hinduism are thrown out, and the positive presentation of Hindutva is energetically put forward. To date, this two pronged approach has been intermittent if it exists at all. Often one finds one in isolation without the other. Both have to go hand in hand. It is indeed a monumental task, but it needs to be undertaken.

A great deal of outstanding work has been done and is being done on individual issues in both a polemical and scholarly manner, such as the critiques on the Hindu Religious Endowment Act, or the biased views of Indian history and so on. But an overall holistic approach to Hindutva has not been consistently attempted. There are some honorable exceptions such as the remarkable study undertaken by Dr. Shrinivas Tilak in his book Reawakening to a secular Hindu Nation (2008). (Hindu dharma is inherently tolerant of all the tolerant faiths. So, no need to make Hindus ‘secular.) This book is certainly one of a kind, and needs to be energetically publicized for its in depth discussions of Hindu views of polity. More such work should take place, since one swallow does not make a spring!

A good place to start would be to rehabilitate the word ‘ Hindu’ as standing for the Vedic Agamic tradition. Sanatana Dharma is irreproachable in one sense, because it focuses on the universal nature of the Vedic vision. However, it helps hostile forces to reject the Agamic side of the equation. Vedic Agamic is the best formula, both because it retains the universalism of the Vedic vision and because it is grounded in the historic practice of that vision in the homeland of the Vedas, the Punya Bhumi.

Hindus have nothing to lose, if they engage in the dual task of a polemic clearing of the decks and a vigorous presentation of Hindutva. Indeed they have a world to win!

DISASTROUS CONSEQUENCES OF SPECIAL RESERVATION FOR MUSLIMS

DISASTROUS CONSEQUENCES OF SPECIAL RESERVATION FOR MUSLIMS

Dr. Babu Suseelan

 

Government of India and several state Governments have been allocating special financial aid, providing special privileges, job reservation, and quota system for Muslims. These policies and special financial aid programs only for Muslims are costly, ineffective and dangerous and fail to serve Indian citizens. In a word, these special privileges and programs for Muslims are dysfunctional, destructive, counterproductive and inefficient.

 

India’s corrupt, timid and criminal politicians are willing to surrender our national integrity to Islamic militants.  And the government rulers are afraid of Muslim violence and terrorism. They deliberately ignore that special financial aid, quota system, and special reservation for Muslims in educational institutions is dangerous and it has negative spillover effect for the country.

 

The present Congress government headed by the uneducated Italian Sonia is hastening India’s decline and ushering a new era of Islamic domination. Instead of dealing with Islamic expansion, the present government would ruin the country and its disastrous consequences will affect all Hindus in the future.

 

All arguments for special privileges for Muslims and financial aid for Jihadis are defective and dubious at best. Consider, for instance the relationship between extra spending on special education for Muslims, Hajj subsidy, Mullah Pension, financial assistance for Madrasa education and its consequences for the nation.

 

In Kerala, and Kashmir, education portfolio was controlled by Muslims since independence. In Kerala, and Kashmir Muslim students enjoy special privileges, financial assistance, reservation, and quota system. They control and allocate more Tax payer money for Islamic education. Muslims League Ministers allocate special funding for Islamic colleges, refuse to light a lamp at general functions, introduced special green uniform for teachers and declared special holidays for Muslims. Hindus are discriminated in every level of education.

 

Before Islamic invasion, India enjoyed a golden age and leadership in every area of knowledge.  Hindu scholars were experts in art, literature, music, philosophy, psychology, mathematics, astronomy, and in life sciences and medicine. Sanskrit was a common lingua franca and citizens were happy with their home education and guru-Sishya relationship. Skilled traders and artisans were happy in their fields. India that was a wonder of the world was destroyed by Islamic invasion and British Christian Colonialists.  After independence from British Christian colonialists, atheist Nehru and his Marxists and Islamic cronies have continued the McCauley educational system and introduced special privileges, reservation, quota system and extra financial aid for Muslims only. Funding for Sanskrit education has stopped and they tinkered with our educational system and Hindu ethos, moral values and culture were shattered.

 

With Central and State government debt is rising, and pro- Islamist governments spend more and more tax payer money on Islamic education, Mullah pension, Madras expansion, Hajj subsidy and special financial aid for Muslim students to an unsustainable long term pace.

 

 

HINDUS SHOULD GET OUT OF THE COMFORT ZONE

 

 

Hindus constitute the majority community In India and they must unite and demand the anti Hindu government to re-think of special reservation and unlimited financial aid for Jihad education.

 

It is a good time to start in meeting India’s economic and social crises. It is awkward for some phony secular Hindus to admit they don’t know how to go about these matters.

 

What did the government do? Now the pseudo secular, anti Hindu government want to expand reservation programs to private industry also.

 

Major Corporations, Financial Institutions, Big Companies and Business Professionals in India agree that the world is rapidly changing. Rapid changes in science, technology and computer demands intelligent, smart, efficient and brightest employees to be competitive in the ever changing business world. Brightest-intelligent employees offer companies the opportunity to be competitive. The market, the productive world, and business competition demands drastic changes in workforce education qualification, skills and experience.

 

Businesses, major corporations and Big Companies can best capture the market, gain respect, and build profit only with smart-intelligent, well qualified work force. Companies cannot ignore smart, intelligent, highly qualified science and engineering graduates. If the companies that hire employees based on their Islamic belief system ethnic background, learning disabilities or retarded intellectual abilities are doomed.

 

Employees hire good, well qualified workers who may look at their job as a carrier, while some with intense interest in fanatic, closed ideology might look these entry levels as a stepping stone for promoting their fanatic ideology or closed dogma.

 

Highly competitive, well educated, intelligent, smart and bright people are pathways for companies to improve the market reach and competitiveness. The role for governmental organizations is to create a culture which every employee is respected for their contribution. If employees are the brightest, they do really well, and the management can delegate leadership and responsibilities to them.

 

Despite the fact that the rationale for special reservation for Muslims in government job, and financial aid for fanatic Jihadis are very weak, defective, the Sonia Government has expanded job reservation for Muslims and undeserving candidates. Special reservation and quota system have been growing year after year and it creates terrible debt for the government. This diabolically cunning strategy to increase vote Bank has aggravated an already bad situation, and provides a perfect example of the fundamental problem facing our nation today. Islamized politicians pushing such anti national illusory policies with extraordinarily high cost will ruin our country in time.

 

Perhaps and most importantly, such central and state programs only for anti National Muslims contributed to inflation, price rise, and social crises. These special reservation for undeserving candidates based on their closed religion is not an appropriate use of tax payer money at the time of budget deficits. When Hindus pay a large part for this Muslim appeasement programs, there is mute response from Hindus and Hindu organizations.

 

In Kerala for example, NSS and several Hindu leaders have issued statements against such special Reservation polices. In spite of rapid deterioration in service, the consumers never organize, unite and take appropriate action to prevent such pro-Islamic, anti national policies and programs of the Government dominated by Jihadis.  The unintended and dubious consequences of such special

Programs for undeserving fanatic people will fail the nation.

 

It is time for Hindus to organize and show their power against such deeply flawed, highly controversial programs to promote Islamism. Hindus must methodically eviscerate such pro jihadi policies and programs and all other cultural issues of our time with intellectual force and vigor.

 

Corrupt and criminal politicians, expert mind manipulators may want us to feel powerless, helpless and hopeless and force us to believe that there is no cure for such atrocious programs.  But this is a sort of Stockholm syndrome. Some Hindus, unable to bear frustration, anxiety, fear and powerlessness, suppress it by identifying with the dirty, deviant, corrupt Islamized political captors. It is devolution from reason.

We are living in a democracy. By realizing that we are living in a democracy, a strong determination must be made that we are Hindus, and through sufficient maturity Hindus have to accept the burden of choice rather than submit to the whims and fancy of the criminal politicians or fanatic groups.

What Harm Gandhi Did to India

From:  Koti Shreekrishna,  tatachar@aol.com

Subject: What Harm Gandhi Did to India

Arun: I would like to know what harm was done to India by Gandhi.

Gandhi is the architect of HALF-baked partition. He tried to block partition that was good. When he failed to do so (which is not his fault) as Jinnah and Nehru could not be made to compromise, Gandhi went on to commit the greatest BLUNDER by insisting on half-baked partition. He also ignored the injunction of Qur’an, which calls upon Muslims to create a pure Islamic society. It is Gandhi who is responsible for getting millions of non-Muslims stuck in an Islamic state [W. Pakistan was left with about 25% non-Muslims and East Pakistan was left with about 45% non-Muslims]. What a nightmare! Millions of non-Muslims have suffered in Pakistan in various ways. Today Pakistan has less than 5% non-Muslims living under Islamic sword. In Bangladesh, it is about 25% non-Muslims (down from 45% in 1947) who can be raped and murdered any time. They are basically at the mercy of Muslims. India was left with about 15% Muslims in 1947 (with special protection under our pseudo-secular constitution, getting more so from time to time), and that % is about the same today. Muslims in tilting majority in many constituencies in India call more shots in India than any other group; and our policies are meant to protect, enrich and enhance pseudo-secularism. Gandhi’s double standard (he even asked Muslims to kill as many Hindus as they would like) is the father of pseudo-secularism as well.

HINDU RASHTRA: DREAMING NEW POSSIBILITIES

HINDU RASHTRA: DREAMING NEW POSSIBILITIES

Dr. BABU SUSEELAN

 

By analyzing the thought and influence of political pathology and social-economic crises created by unethical, pseudo secular politicians in India, one could find out that Nehru and his cronies have destroyed our unity of values, and the dissolution of Dharma. A failure of ethics is at the root of our many related crises including corruption, coercive religious conversion, subversive activities and jihadi terrorism.

By declaring India as a Hindu Rashtra, we could finally choose to face up to the moral contradictions inherent in our bogus secular system. By Hindu Rshtra, we mean not a Theocratic, Fundamentalist state like Vatican, Saudi Arabia, or Pakistan.  By Hindu Rashtra, we can reassert and renew our civilization. If we fail to learn from our history of brutal Islamic Conquest, Christian Colonialisation and Nehruvian Utopian and useless pseudo secular socialism, we are doomed.

Hindu Rashtra is not with a spirit of intervention or revenge. Hindus are known for their eclecticism, benevolence, tolerance, generosity, compromise, harmony and co-existence, unfortunately, it is not easy as it used to thousands of years ago. Hindus are indoctrinated, brainwashed and misdirected by our ant Hindu media, criminal and corrupt politicians. Our bogus secularism has contaminated several Hindus.  Pseudo secularist and brainwashed Hindus with addictive thinking still can create obstacles on our way. There is not much difference between a secular addict and those suffering from obsessive compulsive disorder. Phony secular addicts and anti Hindu politicians have created a whole new array of symptoms of national disorders.

WHILE HINDUS SLEEP

Our collective failure to respond to properly to the challenges posed by Islamists and Marxists in India complicated problems. Nehruvian phony secularism and Gandhian principles of surrender to Muslim demands as well as cynical exploitation of Hindus by corrupt, criminal politicians have undermined our ability to confront our enemies. Islamic expansion plan and coercive religious conversion has weakened our efforts to protect Hindu lives, safety and security of Hindus and their cultural values.  The Government, executives Branch, Police and Judiciary, and intellectuals and the media failed miserably to expose the true nature of Islam and Marxism.

Muslims have terrorized, butchered and kicked out all Hindus from Kashmir, the citadel of our culture and civilization. Kashmir Hindus are still languishing as refugees in their own country. The bogus secular politicians have now completed Islamization of India. Kashmir is gone, Nagaland is gone, and in Kerala, the land of Sankaracharya, Hindus are slowly becoming a minority. And Islamic slaughter will begin within the next ten years.  Our pseudo secular politicians and the anti- national media can make much of a good thing become a bad thing. They can harm our minds.

While Hindus slept, our government have grown complacent about Jihadist plans to wipe out Hindus from Kashmir, Kerala, and West Bengal.

BETWEEN THE PAST AND FUTURE

Despite these impediments, our Vedic culture has survived and Hindu ideals remain as the heart of our civilization. Our Rishis have created the best systemic philosophy, all inclusive thought system, logic and epistemology, mathematics, algebra, art, music, science, astrology, and literature/

The issues are clear before us. The choice is ours. If we fail to regain our culture, Dharma, ethics, and life system, our children will inherit all the problems we have failed to resolve—plus much more. Our corrupt, criminal politicians and their pseudo secular belief system have squandered our wealth, tinkered with our education, wiped out Sanskrit and undermined our freedom.

Hindu Rashtra will give an identity for all. And it will provide an impetus for self-esteem and courage to reform ourselves and our fellow citizens. It is the only way to achieve harmony and wipe out all dehumanizing obsession for separatism, Maoism, and Marxism and Islamism, that permeates from different parts of India.

History has shown that millions of people of every race, color and religion came to India and settled and drew inspiration from Hindutva. History has also shown us that millions of Hindus were slaughtered, millions were forcefully converted, our country was divided and even now Hindus were oppressed and discriminated. Even after independence, Hindus are faced with social, financial, political and psychological challenges. Hindus are forced to live in a society where corruption, crime, and discrimination are rampant. Hindus have become hypnotized with the bogus secular culture where coercive religious conversion and Maoist violence is continuing. Hindus are in a trance and they do not know that they have been out of touch with their spiritual tradition. BharatVarsh Hindus call their motherland has become deceptive, manipulative, and ruthless and our political rulers have made Hindus in a state of confusion and chaos.

As the representative of the oldest civilization, and spiritual tradition, Hindus must now act. Hindus must male attempts to rearrange the disorder in our motherland. Hindus must think clearly and act decisively if we want our spiritual tradition to be transferred to our next generation.

Hindus should wake up from their slumber, overcome their addictive-secular thinking and make commitment to engage with Hindus around the world and make thoughtful ways to stop Islamization of India. And without effective action against Muslims and their cohorts, our survival as a Hindu nation will flatter. Hindus should not retreat into an ignorant garrison or wallow into a misdirected and erroneous concept “That all Religions are the same”.

In this ever changing world, Hindus need a nation of their own. It is economically vital, socially appealing and powerful, and it must be strategically deliberate. And the world will respect Hindus and India.

कौशांबी मेट्रो स्टेशन पर ओवरब्रिज के नीचे सीएनजी ऑटो kaa Adharma

Subject: कौशांबी मेट्रो स्टेशन पर ओवरब्रिज के नीचे सीएनजी ऑटो kaa adharma

 

सभी मित्रों से विनम्र निवेदन है की सिर्फ अपना ५ मिनट का समय इस पोस्ट को पढ़ने के लिए दें, कई मित्रों ने ऐसा देखा होगा बहुत बार, यह सत्य घटना है तथा पूरे देश में ये भ्रस्ताचार फैला हुआ है, सब मिले हुए हैं ऊपर से लेके नीचे तक ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

कौशांबी मेट्रो स्टेशन पर ओवरब्रिज के नीचे सीएनजी ऑटो की कतार लगी है. तीन सवारियों के परमिट पर पास आटो में आठ सवारियां बैठी हैं और तीन और ज़बरदस्ती लादी जा रहीहैं. वहां खड़े मुसतंडो की कोशिश है कि एक दो और को भी जैसे-तैसे ऑटो पर टांग दिया जाए.

मैं एक मिनट रुक कर सोचता हूं कि कैसे बैठूं… फिर थोड़े इंतेज़ार के बाद एक खाली ऑटो, जो की बाकी से करीब दो मीटर आगे खड़ा है, में बैठ जाता हूं. मेरे साथ ही एक युवती भी ऑटो में चढ़ती है. मेरी बगल में बैठते ही उसके मोबाइल का क्रिएट मैसेज बटन एक्टिव हो जाता है. मैसेज टाइप कर रही है ( और मैं देख रहा हूं…)… मैसेज गया… और जवाब आने से पहले ही एक मैसेज और चला गया. वो मैसेज भेजने में मस्त है… मैं तांक झांक में. एक और युवक आकर हमारे साथ बैठ गया है. ऑटो में सवारी पूरी तीन. ट्रैफिक के नियमानुसार अब ऑटो को चल जाना चाहिए था.

सीट के सामने लगी पटरी पर एक और युवती आकर बैठ गई. रात के साढ़े आठ से थोड़ा अधिक वक्त हुआ है. बहुत थकी हुई लग रही है. दो और किशोर आए. पटरी पर बैठ गए. हमारी पिछली वाली सीट पर थोड़ी गुंजाइश है. एक किशोर हमारे बीच में जैसे-तैसे सैट हो जाता है. अब सामने वाली पटरी पर बस युवती बैठी है. दो और युवक आए और पटरी पर बैठ गए. ऑटो में बैठे हुए करीब दस मिनट हो गए हैं, अब सवारियां जल्दी घर पहुंचने और ऑटो में भीड़ की बातें करने लगी हैं. सभी के पास बयां करने के लिए अपनी राय है.

मुसतंडे सवारी पकड़-पकड़ कर ला रहे हैं और ऑटो में बिठा रहे हैं. पिछली सीट पर चार, सामने वाली पटरी पर तीन और आगे ड्राइवर के अगल-बगल में एक तरफ एक और दूसरी तरफ दो. कुल मिलाकर ऑटो में ड्राइवर समेत 11 सवारी बैठी हैं. सामने की पटरी पर बस इतनी ही गुंजाइश है कि उस पर बैठी सवारी अपना हाथ टिका दे. मुसतंडा एक और सवारी को पकड़ कर लाया. और पटरी पर बैठी सवारियों और सरकने के लिए कहने लगा. कौने में बैठी युवती बोली कि अगर और सरकी तो बाहर गिर जाउंगी.

यह सुनते ही मुसतंडे की आवाज में गर्मी आ गई. बोला, ‘मैडम ज़रा पिछले ऑटो में भी देख लीजिए… यहां सभी में चार ही बैठती हैं, आपको अगर आराम से जाना है तो पर्सनल ऑटो करिये… या फिर दो सवारियों की जगह में बैठ रही हैं तो फिर दो के पैसे दीजिए.’ वो बोले जा रहा था, दो-चार मुसतंडे और आ गए, बाकी खड़े ऑटो के ड्राइवर भी इकट्ठा हो गए. मैं पहले कई बार ऐसे मामलों में दखल दे चुका था, सोचा इस बार कुछ न ही बोलू… लेकिन जब बात हद से बाहर होती दिखी तो बोलना ही ज़रूरी समझा.

आवाज़ में नरमी के साथ मैंने भी कह दिया, ‘भाई साब ये लड़की क्या गलत कह रही है, जो पटरी ऑटो में होनी ही नहीं चाहिए वो लगाकर तीन सवारी तो आप बिठा ही चुके हो, अब एक और ज़बरदस्ती लाद रहे हो, अगर ये बेचारी रास्ते में गिर गई तो जि़म्मेदार कौन होगा, अब रहम करो और ऑटो निकलने दो.’

मेरी बोलते ही उसकी आवाज़ में और गर्मी आ गई, माहौल ऐसा हो गया जैसे किसी दबे-कुचले ने गली के दादा के सामने बोलने की हिम्मत कर दी हो. बोला यहां तो चार ही बैठेंगी जिसे दिक्कत हो उतर जाए… लो जी… ज़रा सो बोलने की कीमत रात में ऑटो से बाहर. खैर कोई ऑटो से नहीं उतरा. हम कहना ही चाह रहे थे कि ऑटो आगे बढ़ाईये वरना पुलिस को बुलवा लेंगे… मुसतंडे ने पहले ही बोल दिया. पुलिस को बुलाने के बारे में सोच रहे हैं, बुला लीजिए, जोर आज़मा कर देख लीजिए, बहुत पैसा खर्च करते हैं, बेकार में लाल पीले हो जाओगे.

मामला गर्म हो चुका था, मुसतंडे खुद को मोगेंबो समझ रहे थे, हमने भी 100 नंबर डॉयल कर दिया. मामला बताते ही फोन कट. ट्रैफिक पुलिस का नंबर भी नहीं दिया, बोले वहीं लिखा होगा कहीं दीवार पर. जैसे दीवार पर नंबर लिखकर ट्रैफिक पुलिस की जिम्मेदारी खत्म.

फोन रखते ही मुसतंडों का पारा और गर्म हो गया. उनका पैसा असर दिखा रहा था. आवाज़ में और रौब लाकर बोला, सामने पुलिस चौकी है, वहां भी जोर आज़माइश करके देख लीजिए… हम कुछ बोलते उससे पहले ही बोला, लो जी चौकी इंचार्ज साहब को यहीं बुलवा लेते हैं. एक मिनट बाद विशाल यादव नाम का चौकी इंचार्ज आ गया…

आते ही बोला, कौन गर्मी दिखा रहा है, हां भई! क्या दिक्कत है, कितनी सवारी है तेरे साथ, कहां जाएगा, क्या करता है… मैंने कहा, मैं अकेला ही हूं, सामने वाली लड़की को दिक्कत है, तीन सवारियां बैठी हैं ये जबरदस्ती चार बिठा रहा है… बात पूरी करता उससे पहले ही चौकी इंचार्ज बोल पड़ा… बिठा रहा है तो क्या दिक्कत है, नहीं बैठना उतर जाओ…

मुझे थोड़ा सा गुस्सा आया, आवाज ऊंची करके इतना ही कहा, दिक्कत यह है कि ये ऑटो तीन सवारियों पर पास है, और इससे ज्यादा बैठने में जान का ख़तरा है, अपनी ड्यूटी करो, चालान बुक निकालो और ओवरलोडिंग पर इसका चालान काटो…

विशाल यादव के तेवर यह सुनते ही ठंडे पड़ गये. ड्राइवर से बोला… चले इसे आगे बढ़ा… और ऑटो 11 सवारी (टोटल 12 से एक कम लेकर आगे चल पड़ा.)

ऑटो में बैठी भारत की युवा पीढ़ी इसे बुराई पर अच्छाई की विजय मान रही थी. आगे बैठे एक लॉ के छात्र बोले, भाईसाब मैं आपकी बहस बड़ी ध्यान से सुन रहा था. मैं रोज़ चलता हूं, लेकिन ये सिस्टम है, आप अकेले सिस्टम नहीं बदल सकते. लेकिन आपने जो पुलिस वाले को झाड़ा मुझे बहुत अच्छा लगा. अपना हौसला बनाए रखिएगा.

एक और भाईसाब बोले, ‘यार सारा सिस्टम खराब है, और हम चाहे तो इसे बदल सकते हैं, लेकिन क्या करें हिम्मत नहीं होती. ये तो रोज की ही बात है.’

बाकी सवारियों ने भी अपनी राय रखनी शुरु की… अब मेरे बोलने की बारी आई… मैंने भी कह दिया, ‘ये मेरी बगल में भारत का भविष्य बैठा है, देख लीजिए मोबाइल में मस्त हैं, मोबाइल पर खर्च होने वाले हर घंटे पर ये दो मिनट भारत की सेवा में लगा दें तो देश की तकदीर बदल जाए…’

मैडम बोल पड़ी, अंकल मुझमें भी बहुत जोश है, अभी देखा नहीं है आपने, मैं भी चाहती हूं कि भारत अच्छा हो, मैं भी भ्रष्टाचार के खिलाफ लड़ती हूं… आपका संदेश में बहुत लोगों तक पहुचाउंगी…

अब तक ऑटो का ड्राइवर खामोश था. मौका मिलते ही बोला, ‘भाई साब आप मेरा शुक्रिया मनाइये कि मैं वहां से ऑटो आगे बढ़ा लाया, मैंने ही सही सलामत निकाला है आपको वरना आज तो आपकी धुलाई होनी तय थी. ये जो वहां खड़े थे ये बहुत बुरा मारते हैं…’

उसकी बात बीच में काटकर मैं बोल पड़ा…’ये मारने पीटने की नहीं, गणित की बात करो, ये बताओं की रोज का कितना देते हैं.’

ड्राइवर बोला, ‘हर चक्कर पर तीस रुपए देते हैं, लेकिन सारा पैसा ये मुसतंडे नहीं रखते, वो बेचारे तो उतना ही रखते हैं जितना जायज हो. आपको लग रहा होगा बहुत कमाते हैं, लेकिन खर्च लायक ही मिल पाता है उन्हें, बाकी तो चौकी इंचार्ज धर लेता है जो ऊपर तक पहुंचाता है. पूरा रैकेट शुक्ला नाम का आदमी चला रहा है, 22 साल मुलायम की कोठी पर रहकर आया है, बहुत ऊपर तक पहुंच है. पूरे एनसीआर में वसूली का धंधा है. और वो भी सभी नहीं रखता, सबसे मोटा हिस्सा तो अपने अखिलेश भैय्या के पास जाता है.’

एक भाई साब अब तक शांत बैठे थे, वो बोल पड़े, ‘हम सवारियां तो बकरी हैं, जिधर लाठी पड़े उधर मुंह दबा कर चल दे, ये सवारी बिठा रहे लौंडे कुत्ते थे… पालतू कुत्ते… वो जो पुलिसवाला आया वो भैंकाऊं कुत्ता था… एकदम भौंकने वाली नस्ल का. जितना भौंकेगा उतनी बोटी मिलेगी. लेकिन ये समझ में नहीं आ रहा कि ये अखिलेश यादव कौन सी नस्ल का कुत्ता है. इसके पास रहने के लिए बड़ा बंगला है, उड़ने के लिए हवाई जहाज है, पूरे प्रदेश की पावर है, इसकी कौन सी भूख है जो शांत नहीं हो रही, वसूली करवा रहा…’

हमारे प्रिय मुख्यमंत्री की शान में और गुस्ताखी होती उससे पहले ही मैंने फिर बात का रुख ड्राइवर की ओर कर दिया… तो भाई साब कुल कितने ऑटो चलते होंगे और एक ऑटो कितने चक्कर मारता होगा…

‘कौशांबी मेट्रो से रोज 200 से ज्यादा ऑटो चलते हैं, हर ऑटो के चार-पांच चक्कर तो लग ही जाते हैं…’ मतलब रोजाना के करीब 30 हजार यानी महीने के कम से कम 9 लाख रुपए सिर्फ चौकी पर एक स्टैंड के ऑटो ही चढ़ा रहे हैं…

इस गणित का एक पहलू यह भी है कि ऑटो में बैठने वाली 11 सवारियों में से तीन का पैसा वसूली में जाता है. यानी हर चौथी सवारी घूस दे रही है. मतलब यह है कि यदि आप रोज के बीस रुपए ऑटो किराये में खर्च करते हैं तो महीने के 150 रुपये सिर्फ वसूली में देते हैं. ऑटो में जान जोखिम में डालकर लटक कर जाते हैं आप और मलाई लूटते हैं हमारे अखिलेश भैय्या…

जब हर महीने 150 रुपए रंगदारी देने के बाद आप ही कुछ कहना या करना नहीं चाहते तो मैं भी इस लेख में और शब्द बर्बाद क्यों करूं. आपकी भावनाओं को शब्द देते हुए एक लोकप्रिय नौजवान मुख्यमंत्री को कुत्ता तो लिख ही चुका हूं… लेकिन सवाल यही है कि क्या लिखकर भी कुछ हो सकेगा… जानता हूं लिखना इस समस्या का समाधान नहीं है, अगर आपके पास कोई समाधान हो तो जरूर बताएं वरना हर महीने के 150 भैय्या के कुत्तों को खिलाते रहें…
