A rare praise and recognition from a secular and leftist national news paper “The Hindu” was reported in its article titled “Do People Matter?” . It says in the article that:
“Cracking under the relentless pressure from the Hazare-Ramdev campaigns over the last eight weeks, the Government is making one mistake after another as it desperately tries to divert public attention away from Corruption. The main takeaway for the people is that this Government will go to any lengths to protect the Corrupt. Congress general secretary Digvijaya Singh today alleged that RSS was behind the yoga guru’s protest action. “Right from putting up the pandal to organize the meetings, everywhere there is RSS.”
The report further states “Singh also took a dig at K N Govindacharya for choosing Ramdev for launching the anti-corruption campaign saying that this was not expected from the RSS ideologue”.
Now the logical question the Indian Aam Aadmi needs to ask is why are the other parties like The Indian Union Muslim League, Rashtriya Janata Dal, Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party and other champions of the cause of the minority and secularism, not supporting the anti-corruption movement?
Why is the Congress and its mouthpiece Digvijay Singh trying so hard to bring a communal angle to the civil society anti-corruption movement and paint it in Saffron color?
Why do the Congress party and Digvijay Singh think that the nationalist Hindus supporters of RSS are not affected by the Corruption?
The Hindu article also stated that; “Corruption is India's number one crisis. From less than fifteen paise of one rupee of government aid that reaches to the poor to mega scams like 2G, CWG, Antrix-Devas, Adarsh, etc, to corruption on the borders and coasts that aids and assists terrorism -- improbity and deceit are destroying India”.
On this note I wish to draw the attention of our readers to a previous post on this blog where we had talked about the devious ways of Digvijay Singh where he was seen amongst Muslim leaders releasing a book called, RSS ki Sazish 26/11?
Digvijay’s claim that it is the RSS which is against the corruption movement implies something that no one seems to be noticing. The corollary to his statement is the so called secular parties like like SP, BSP and RJD are IN FAVOR OF CORRUPTION! I guess in his zeal to appease the Muslims, Digvijay may have given the ultimate compliment to the RSS and the so called communal parties. That is the trouble with talking too much. Sooner or later you will get tripped by your own tongue.
History shows that whenever the ruling Congress party or the government has been in trouble, they have sharpened their attack on the RSS by making false and baseless allegations which have never been proven. Since the present government is surrounded by allegations of corruption and bad governance. It is only to be expected that they will blame the RSS. Since we are now friends with the US, the Congress has stopped blaming the CIA for all the troubles. That leaves RSS as their favorite and the only target.
It’s the aam aadmi who has to figure out and not fall for the Congress tactics of deflecting people’s attention.
Do people matter?
One is that groups of well-meaning citizens cannot be allowed to hijack the legislative agenda; the other is that the RSS is behind the anti-corruption movement. Taking the second argument first, one must ask: even if it is true that the RSS is behind the movement, does that somehow make it illegitimate? Why is the Government trying to shift attention from corruption to the RSS? If RSS volunteers helped out in an earthquake or a flood, would that help be rejected by the Government?
