IIT Madras's War Against Hinduism

Couple of weeks ago,  a student wing of IIT Madras put up poster and distributed pamphlets calling for discussion on caste related issues. The posters selectively quotes Ambedkar and calls for the death and destruction of Hinduism.

The group which calls itself the Ambedkar Perriyar group believes that issues of caste discrimination can only be brought about by the complete destruction of the Hindu religion. Given the inflammatory nature of the content,  complaints were received by the HRD ministry stating that hate against Hindus and Hinduism is being spread and the IIT Madras management has not done anything to stop this behaviour despite repeated complaints.

HRD minister the sends the complaint to the Dean of IIT Madras asking for comments. The Dean clearly caught on the wrong foot, announces a suspension of the student group...

The incident raises some serious concerns....

Questions for the IIT Madras management

  • Was the Dean and the management aware of the 'Death to Hinduism' movement and chose not to do anything about it ? Per law spreading hatred for a religion is a criminal offence and the IIT Madras have even till date not filed an FIR with local police station 
  • Why was an institution funded largely by Hindu tax payers money being used to raise a war against Hindus ? Who approved the posters and pamphlets ?
  • Why is the IIT Madras management giving a lifeline to a group by merely suspending it and not acting as per law by filing a FIR ?

Question for Rahul Gandhi and the Media

  • Does Rahul Gandhi and the Media support the student body's call for the destruction of Hinduism ?
  • Does secularism and democracy give anybody a right to wage a war against a religion ? If yes, then would they also support the activities of ISIS ?

IIT Madras is supposed to be place of learning, its been now reduced to a laboratory to wage a war against Hindus and Hinduism. Its time to act against IIT Madras for tax payers money should not be wasted on waging a religious war.

Mauka Mauka for the Enemy Within

Two things unite a nation as diverse as India - culture and cricket. When any nation takes part in a world tournament and does well very in the initial stages, one would expect the people of that nation to back the team .... Over the past few weeks we had many intellectuals and prominent media houses hoping that India looses the semi finals against Australia ... It started with noted sociologist Ashis Nandy .... According to Nandy, India is suffering from too much national pride and winning the world cup will make it worse... This was followed by a national poll by a leading print magazine Outlook which asked .. "Should India win the World Cup ? "  You can take the survey here Outlook not only echoed Nandy's sentiments but went on to add that "winning the world cup might just make India's macho and hyper masculine nationalism more intense. Over the last few months, there seems to have been an effort to make a pluralistic India into a homogeniz...

BJP Karyakarta has Won

The earliest memory I have of a BJP karyakarta was of my mother''s colleague and friend called as Rajani aunty . Rajni aunty and her family were dedicated, committed karyakartas of the RSS, Jan Sangh and then the BJP.  Their commitment was so complete that they made every contribution they could - tan, man and dhan. Even in the 1980's when the BJP was a very young party, Rajani aunty and her family stood like a steady rock. When Vajpayee lost in the 1984 election, there were tears in her eyes. Rajani aunty used to work as a professor at the Sophia college in Mumbai. Once she asked a rather innocent question in the GK paper - "Who is the founder of the RSS ? ". The secular Catholic management took a very hard view and she was forced to quit her job. For 2 years she did not have a job but never once regretted her commitment to the ideology. Through her trials , she always stood by the Sangh. Her family for generations and decades stood by the Sangh no matte...
