The History of Anti-Muslim Violence in Independent India By M. Kamaluddin

Rss IN 1963 Republic day Parade in New Delhi

[Bismillahnews.in-28-11-11-New Delhi] In this article I wish to give you an account of the evolution of ghastly Hindu terrorism. It is about how Muslims have faced systematic massacres and suffered atrocities unleashed by the fascist forces the RSS, BJP, VHP, and the A Bajrang Dal in collusion with the communal-minded police and administration.

Hindu terrorism was unleashed on 30 January 1948 when the father of the nation Mahatma Gandhi was shot dead by an activist of the RSS, the terrorist organization which was established in 1925 as the military wing of the All-India Hindu Maha Sabha with the express purpose of combating the Muslims. Soon after the assassination of Mahatma the Hindu press spread the rumour that he was killed by a Muslim. Then a hell was let loose upon the Muslims. They faced death and destruction everywhere. They had circumscised Godse to give him a Muslim identity. In this ghastly atmosphere it was decided at the highest level that the Hindu public will not believe the truth unless the identity of the assassin is disclosed by none else than the Prime Minister of India Pundit Jawaharlal Nehru. As soon as Nehru announced on the All-India Radio that Gandhi was killed by a Hindu youth named Nathu Ram Godse, violence against Muslims subsided and they took a sigh of relief. Who was this Godse? He was a worker of the RSS.

Later trial of Godse and others proved that Gandhi’s assassination was a result of a conspiracy on the part of fascist leaders and organizations. The RSS was banned thereafter for some time.

The next most dastardly act of Hindu terrorism took place on 6 December 1996 when leaders and workers belonging to the fascist RSS, BJP, VHP, and Bajrang Dalassembled in Ajodhya for the so-called kar seva and exhorted the unruly crowds to demolish the 500 year old Jama Masjid, claiming it as the so-called Ram Janam Bhoomi. This happened against the undertaking given by the UP Government to the Indian supreme Court towards maintaining the status quo and in the presence of a horde of Central and State armed forces, and repeated false assurances given by the then PM Narasimha Rao, who was an RSS worker in his youth.

The third important act of Hindu terrorism is the assassination of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi at the hands of LTTE cadres, which was essentially a Hindu terrorist organization committed to elimination of Muslims from Sri Lanka. They  wantonly razed many Muslim villages to the ground. Although they were Hindu terrorists the Hindu media never called them terrorists but referred to them as Tamil Tigers.

The United Liberation Front of Assam (ULFA) is yet another Hindu terrorist organization whose apparent aim is freedom from India but whose one objective is to wipe out Muslim population of Assam. The Hindu media never calls them terrorists but refers to them as liberators of Assam.

In 2008 the twin bomb blasts in Malegaon that killed a large number of Muslims were masterminded by the Hindu terrorists as confessed by their leader swami Aseemanand.

In Kanpur, UP, a bomb manufacturing factory was in full operation with the money provided by the Hindu fascists and in collaboration with retired military officers. Its existence came to light when a sudden explosion inside killed some and deprived others of their limbs and legs. The Hindu media hushed up the matter and gave its news in back-page columns to minimize its impact. The police made some arrests for namesake then the case was shelved forever.

On the contrary, whenever an explosion takes place Muslims are always suspected, arrested indiscriminately and false sketches of bearded Muslim youth circulated as wanted terrorists.

It is the first duty of the police in a secular democratic country to maintain peace and uphold rule of law. But in India they join hands with the Hindu terrorists in killing Muslims and destroying their properties. Once the late Justice Anand Narain Mulla of the Allahabad High Court had described them as a criminal organization.

In the recent bomb blast that took place at the Delhi High Court, a 15-year old Hindu student sent an email in the name of the so-called Indian Mujahideen claiming responsibility for the blasts. Thereafter, the Hindu media published pictures of bearded faces to propagate that Muslims had done it. God damn these lying media.

In a joint assault by the local police and the Hindu terrorists on Muslims assembled for prayers in their mosque at Gopalgarh Town of Bharatpur district of Rajasthan at least nine unarmed Muslims were gunned down and scores injured and the walls of the mosque were pierced through bullets. No action has been taken against the culprits so far.

Soon after the violence in Gopalgarh, an act of sacrilege in Rudrapur, Uttarakhand, incited the local Muslim youth to agitate for action against the culprits. Instead of redressing their grievance the police shot dead eight, injured many and arrested  many unilaterally. No inquiry was held and no action was taken against the culprits.Hyderabad, Kurnool, Adoni, Ahmednagar Anti-Muslims riots on the occasion Ganesh Idol Visargan this year by Police in compliance with Hindu Vahini have largely gone unreported in the Hindu Media.

It is a tragedy that the person who presided over the genocide of Muslims in Gujarat in 2002 is being touted as a future prime minister of India with the blessings of LK Advani. In the most dastardly act of mass burning of Muslims only 31 criminals have been awarded life, not death sentence. The guilty men of Gujarat have yet to be brought to justice.

The latest atrocity of the Hindu terrorists against Muslims is their opposition to the bill for prevention of violence against the minorities. The bill aims at holding the police and administration of the states responsible for such acts of violence against the minorities. By preventing its passage the fascist forces want to keep the door of anti-minority violence open for ever.
