It could happen to you…
PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO AT LEAST 10 PATRIOTIC INDIANS - THEY DESERVE TO KNOW THE TRUTH
The current apathy of the Indian masses is appalling. Silent as they stand in mute consent to the attack on the Kanchi Mutt - this is the start of the degeneration of the freedom and liberty that we Indians take for granted.
Read the following facts and forward this to at last 10 other patriotic Indians. This is the least you can do to save Indian democracy and liberty. The Kanchi Sankaracharya case is NOT only about Hindus or Hinduism - it is about YOU and what could happen to YOU.
Case 1: If the State chooses to attack rather than protect
A State government (Tamil Nadu in this case) has charged two of the senior most religious figures of India on a murder case - listen to what our most revered Supreme Court had to say:
"There is no direct evidence linking the Sankaracharya to the instigating murder."
"People in public life, holding high offices may receive such slanderous letters. It is not possible to say that they could have read it all. In this particular case, the petitioner has kept quiet for three years. To say that he suddenly got angry (upset) and asked for Sankara Raman to be killed is not an acceptable argument."
Imagine what the State can do to YOU -
- Have someone flood you with letters of protest, threats etc.
- 'Significantly impact' the sender OR easier still, have that person file a case against you.
- And YOU could be fighting that case for all your life.
Who could this happen to?
This could happen to anyone - Yes my fellow Indians - ANYONE. You could be ...
a business man who refuses to bribe an officer,
a soldier refusing to be a mute spectator to injustice,
a school teacher who refuses to let an influential person’s child play truant.
And what can you do?
You cannot leave the country and flee.... you have no option but to hope that someone can save you from the illegitimate wrath of some influential 'leaders'.
think...
Case 2: If the State appoints a 'rogue' to 'POLICE' you
In the current Sankaracharya case, the State has appointed PREMKUMAR, a person who any average reader of this email would not hesitate to call 'an unfortunate choice' after reading the following -
• Mr. Premkumar faces several criminal cases and was convicted by a court in a criminal case and suspended from service by the Election Commission for having canvassed for the ruling AIADMK candidate (current ruling party in Tamil Nadu) in the Vilathikulam Assembly by-election
• Mr. Premkumar, when he was sub-inspector of police in Vadipatti near Madurai in 1982, thrashed and paraded one Mr. Nallakannu in handcuffs. Mr. Nallakannu’s wife, a teacher, and his son were also not spared.
SHOCKING? Well, there is more ...
• Mr. Premkumar allegedly tortured one Mr. John Joseph and two nuns in Nagercoil. They were stripped and humiliated. In that case, the High Court recommended that the Crime-Branch CID should prosecute him.
• In July 2003, a fast track court in Madurai found Mr. Premkumar guilty of various criminal offences. It, however, let him out under the Probationary Offenders Act after admonishing him. Though he was convicted in another case as well, the judge did not sentence him since the circumstances and facts leading to the registration of both the cases were the same.
• Despite pending criminal cases, Mr. Premkumar was promoted as Additional Superintendent of Police in 1998 and SP the next year.
Friends - if this is not SHOCKING - what is?
Can you see a trend where the State has chosen one truly 'unfortunate' choice and ensured that the Police who are meant to protect actually victimize you!
This is NOT a joke or a RANT. This is serious my friends. This is after all a Police force that COULD come to your door step this very moment and haul you away and do worse... and the worst part is that you can do NOTHING to stop a vengeful State.
Case 3: If the MEDIA hits below the belt
Do you know that the Indian media is one of the WORST in the world? It is not too far away from the trashy tabloids that the United Kingdom is famous for.
Consider this example - During the recent US elections, one of India's leading papers (Times of India) carried a headline that said - "Florida 2000. India 2004?" - stating a case as to why Americans in India could swing the election in favor of one party or the other!!! For those of who you live in the US - how many times did you hear THAT in your local media? You know the answer - ZERO! Of course there are Americans in India - but to say that their votes will swing an American election is vivid Imagineering at best and plain lies at worst.
So what should you do OR what can you do?
I am going to urge you to -
2. Ask the questions - DO NOT be afraid to ask for answers if you see the State failing you. Your silence on these and other issues will rot the base of our nation, even as we build skyscrapers of fortune. Do not let this happen to you and our future generations!
3. Rein in the media - flood the media and let them know if you do not believe that they are doing an honest job. Let them work for their earnings like you and I do.
WHY AM I SENDING this message?
As a proud Indian, I am happy to see our country progress on multiple fronts. This will soon fade away unless we ACT NOW. The above case of the Kanchi Seers brings to light a very dangerous and suicidal trend - State sponsored persecution of citizens. This is unfortunately not something new - ask the Jews in Nazi Germany.
So long my fellow Indians and God Speed - Long Live India! Long Live Democracy!
Yours,
A fellow Indian
