Militant Secularism and Activism

Congress practices a militant form of secularism. It is the kind, which gets shoved down the throat of the Indian populace by hook or crook. We all know the role of Indian education system, which has brainwashed generations of Indians into abandoning their faith and submit to a pseudo-British system practiced by Congress. Whenever the Congress comes to power they start positioning their pawns into places of decision making so that they always get decisions favorable to their evil interests. One such appointment was that of Justice Katju as the chief of Press Council of India. As per Wikipedia, this is what is said about the PCI:

The Press Council Of India is a statutory body in India that governs the conduct of the print media.
The press council of India is protected by the constitution and its actions may not be questioned unless it is proved to be in violation of the constitution, which makes it exceedingly powerful a body.

As we all know that other than a couple of newspapers and TV stations, most of them are shameless mouthpieces for the Congress and other pseudo-secular demagogues. Therefore the PCI has a responsibility for being neutral in their actions rather than taking decisions based on partisan lines. Recent statements by Katju remind us of the stranglehold that the Congress has on establishments. This is one of his statements:

In its present state, the Bill can create a parallel bureaucracy that could turn into a "Frankenstein monster" and double or triple corruption, he said in a statement.

Justice Katju said that implications of creating a Lokpal had not been rationally thought out and "some people thought that all problems of corruption will be solved by shouting 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai' or 'Inquilaab Zindadbad' from Jantar Mantar or Ramlila Ground.

Here is another one:

Press Council of India chairperson Markandey Katju on Sunday said the media should restrain itself in criticising the newly formed Akhilesh Yadav government for two years.

Talking to reporters here, Katju said even before Akhilesh had taken oath as chief minister, the media started terming the criminal incidents in the state as return of goondaraj, which is not appropriate. “Akhilesh is a young and foreign-educated chief minister. He himself is taking action. He is suspending (workers). Do not demoralise him now. Let him settle down,” he said, adding that the media should say something about him after one or two years.

First of all, Katju’s job is to see if the Indian media is staying within the boundaries drawn by the Constitution. But it is clear that he is using his bully pulpit to pass judgments and manipulate policies and HE HAS NO BUSINESS DOING THAT! His job is to protection of rules and laws. But it is clear that he is trying to do more than that. Who the hell is he to criticize Anna Hazare’s popular movement. By criticizing the ways of anti-corruption movement he is mocking the aam aadmi who is clearly helpless is the face of extreme corruption and compliant / supine bureaucracy, which he shamelessly represents.

Who the hell he is to tell the press to give a pass to Akhilesh Yadav who rule so far has represented the return to the goondaraj. Katju has never ever given anyone from the conservative side such a pass (in fact he has never left a chance to berate non Congress state governments). The reason is all too clear. Congress needs the SP. SP needs a clean image. Katju is helping the SP. Do you see what is at work here?

Katju represents the worst of Indian polity and establishment. Even as a judge, he was a secular activist rather than keeper of the law. Someone needs to tell these guys the definition of “job description” and the need to stick to it for the sake of a functioning and fair bureaucracy. Of course I may as well be asking for the moon.
