*OBE<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Officer_of_the_British_Empire>,
Padma Shree, KBE, Padma Bhushan, one of the most respected journalists in
the world, writes on Indian Politics.*

An eye opener account, not known to most of the Indians.*
*
THE TRUTH & THE HIDDEN FACTS*
*
I was surprised when the Congress party gave me a Padma Shri – I am the
only foreign journalist to ever get it. For, in my forty years of political
reporting in India, I have always been a vocal critic of the Nehru dynasty.
Someone even called me recently: “a vitriolic British journalist, who in
his old age chose to live back in the land he never approved”.*
*It started with Operation Blue Star. I was one of the few western
correspondents who criticized Indira. As I have said since then numerous
times, the attack on the Golden Temple and the atrocities that followed the
army operations, produced in all sections of the Sikhs a sense of outrage
that is hard today to alleviate. I believed then that the large majority of
Hindu India, even if politically hostile to Indira Gandhi, openly
identified with – and exulted in – her will to overwhelmingly humble a
recalcitrant minority.*
*As everybody knows, Indira Gandhi helped my fame grow even more, by
wanting to imprison me during the Emergency she clamped and finally
throwing me out of India for a short while. But the result was that the
whole of India tuned in, then and thereafter, to my radio’s broadcasts,
‘The Voice of India’, to hear what they thought was ‘accurate’ coverage of
events.*
*When Rajiv Gandhi came to power, I first believed that he was sincerely
trying to change the political system, but he quickly gave-up when the old
guard would not budge. I criticized him for his foolish adventure in Sri
Lanka, although I felt sorry for him when he was blown to pieces by Dhanu,
the Tamil Tiger. It is in Kashmir, though that I fought most viciously
against his Govt and subsequent Congress ones for its human right abuses on
the Kashmiri Muslims of the Valley. The Congress Governments tried indeed
several times to censor me and the army even took prisoner my Kashmiri
stringer, whom I had to rescue by the skin of his teeth. I am also proud
that I was the first one to point out then, that the Indian Government had
at that time no proof of the Pakistani involvement in the freedom movement
in Kashmir. Thus I always made it a point to start my broadcasts by
proclaiming that « the Indian Government accuses Pakistan of fostering
terrorism», or that “elections are being held in Indian-controlled Kashmir”…
*
*
As I was so popular, all the other foreign journalists used the same
parlance to cover Kashmir and they always spoke of the plight of the
Muslims, never of the 400.000 Hindus, who after all were chased out of
their ancestral land by sheer terror (I also kept mum about it).*
*
As for Sonia Gandhi, I did not mind her, when she was Rajiv Gandhi’s wife,
but after his death, I watched with dismay as she started stamping her
authority on the Congress, which made me say in a series of broadcasts on
the Nehru Dynasty: “It’s sad that the Indian National Congress should be
completely dependent on one family; the total surrender of a national party
to one person is deplorable. You have to ask the question: what claims does
Sonia Gandhi have to justify her candidature for prime-minister-ship?
Running a country is far more complicated than running a company.
Apprenticeship is required in any profession — more so in politics”. I
heard that Sonia Gandhi was unhappy about this broadcast.*
**
*
Then, after* *President APJ Abdul Kalam called her to the Raj Bhavan* *and
told her what some of us already knew, namely that for a long time, she had
kept both her Italian and Indian passports, which disqualified her to
become the Prime Minister of India, she nevertheless became the Supreme
leader of India behind the scenes. It is then that I exclaimed: “the
moribund and leaderless Congress party has latched onto Sonia Gandhi, who
is Italian by birth and Roman Catholic by baptism”.*
**
*She never forgave me for that. Yet, today I can say without the shadow of
a doubt that when history will be written, the period over which she
presided, both over the Congress and India, will be seen as an era of
darkness, of immense corruption and of a democracy verging towards
autocracy, if not disguised dictatorship, in the hands of a single person,
a non Indian and a Christian like me. Truth will also come out about her
being the main recipient for kickbacks from Bofors to 2G, which she uses to
buy votes, as the Wikileaks have just shown.*
*
Finally, I am sometimes flabbergasted at the fact that Indians –Hindus,
sorry, as most of this country’s intelligentsia is Hindu – seem to love me
so much, considering the fact that in my heydays, I considerably ran down
the 850 million Hindus of this country, one billion worldwide. I have
repented today: I do profoundly believe that India needs to be able to say
with pride, “Yes, our civilization has a Hindu base to it.”*
**
*The genius of Hinduism, the very reason it has survived so long, is that
it does not stand up and fight. It changes and adapts and modernizes and
absorbs–that is the scientific and proper way of going about it. I believe
that Hinduism may actually prove to be the religion of this millennium,
because it can adapt itself to change.*
Hindus are still slaves to MUSLIMS and CHRISTIANS
*On the name of secularism, lots of facilities and cash incentives are
given to Muslims and Christians. Haj subsidy is given to Muslims for Haj
yatra, wages of Muslim teachers and Imams are given to Muslims are given by
looting the Hindu temples. No such subsidy is given to Hindus for going to
Hindu religious places or any wages to Hindu religious priests or Hindu
teachers. In fact congress secular government creates many obstacles for
Hindus for going to Amarnath Yatra. Even after 65 years of independence
reservation is given on religious grounds while it should have been
abolished by this time. If at all reservation or subsidy is needed, then it
should be purely on economic grounds rather on the grounds of minorities.
Such reservations affect the quality of work. Congress party giving various
kinds of allurements to minorities to buy their votes with Hindu money. In
the government many people are with Hindu names but in fact many are
Muslims and Christians with Hindu names to fools Hindus and to show in the
government, majority people are Hindus. *
