Indian National Congress - First thoughts about

Lal Bahadur Shastri (pronounced [laːl bəˈɦaːd̪ʊr ˈʃaːst̪ri]; listen (help·info), 2 October 1904 – 11 January 1966) was the secondPrime Minister of the Republic of India and a leader of the Indian National Congress party.

The one and only follower of Bapu on whom he could not cast his carishma was Subhash Chandra Bose. He is one of the most dynamic leaders of our country. He is also popularly known as Netaji. He was the first to establish cultural ties by forming centers in the various capital cities of Europe. He graduated from the Scottish Church College with a First Class degree in Philosophy. Deeply moved by the Jallianwala Bagh massacre in Punjab, Subhash left his Civil Services midway from England and returned to India. He joined the Indian National Congress and worked under the leadership of Deshbandhu Chittaranjan Das. He believed that the Bhagavad Gita was a great source of inspiration for the freedom struggle. Swami Vivekananda's teachings on universalism, his emphasis on social service had all inspired him from his very young days. The Hindu spirituality formed his political thought throughout his adult life, although there was no sense of bigotry or orthodoxy in it. His radical stance in various party forums, h ...

The Jantar Mantar in Jaipur is actually one of six major observatories built by the Maharajah. The one in Jaipur not only follows the movements of the sun and the moon to help determine auspicious dates for events, it also helps map out the position of the stars in the sky. Although no telescopic instruments were available at the time, the precise observation of the stars was greatly facilitated by observatories such as Jantar Mantar. It should also be noted that such an endeavor (six major observatories, a staff of full-time priests etc.) did not come to a small cost. This is further evidence of the importance placed on the study of the stars. As mentioned earlier, both astrology and astronomy were reasons to build these structures. Unlike the "west", astrology did not become as pseudo-science as astronomy became more factual and experimental. Instead, both were considered an integral part of society. Ancient India's contributions in the field of astronomy are well known and well documented. The earlies ...

Now that is the biggest question most of us are facing. We are not the people who'll just talk about politics, crib about it, then do nothing about it. We want to vote, for a good candidate who can do something good for the constituency and the country. But who is the good candidate in your constituency? How do we decide? If Loksatta party is contesting in your constituency, lucky you! But for someone like me, residing in a constituency where no 'clean and efficient' candidate is contesting, it becomes tougher to decide on whom to vote for. I have to now choose between the Devil (BJP) and the Deep Blue Sea (Congress), about JD(S), the less we talk, the better it is! Mr. Krishnappa contesting from the BJP has not done any significant work in his last term and is known to be corrupt. Mrs. Tejaswini Ramesh contesting from the INC seems to be promising, but her past record as MP isn't great. I would gladly vote for the Congress party if they bring people like Krishna Byregowda et al to power, I would vote for ...

Sarabjit Singh dies: Congress Vice-President Rahul Gandhi today had an hour-long, emotional meeting with the distraught family of Sarabjit Singh, who died in a Lahore hospital early this morning following a brutal assault in a Pakistani jail last week.

The heading of this note might sound a typo for many but it is not !! What has played out in the last few days is a scam bigger than the scam. A neuroscientist of Indian origin, V.S. Ramachandran, has noted that the human brain might get lost in variations of “free will”, but can certainly be clear about a “free won’t”. Mr Ramachandran should start classes for powerful Indian politicians. Dangle a temptation before them, and stick to “will”, rarely opting for “won’t”. One sign of the march of Indian democracy is creative progress in the science of corruption. In the shoddy old days, someone took a bag stuffed with cash, a flunky counted the rupees and took it to the master’s bedroom. A high dignitary like a Prime Minister would get more respect; his cash came in a proper suitcase. A bull operator on the Mumbai stock exchange claimed in the early 1990s that he had gifted P.V. Narasimha Rao with a suitcase packed with Rs 1 crores in neat bundles. These days, of course, such a pittance ...

The UPA is not just facing internal turbulence, but very serious external challenges with the Chinese incursion today entering the 16th day. External Affairs Minister Salman Khurshid has told NDTV that this is not similar to the Kargil situation in 1999.

HNN Religion / Culture: April 25, 2013: Today Hanuman Jayanti. Shaktivaan, Bhaktivaan Hanuman ji ko Pranaam! Here is an ancient Hanuman ji from Kashi. This Hanuman ji is near Kashi's Omkareshwar / Madhyameshwar temples. In ancient times the area was called 'Rudramahalaya' & there were 5 magnificent temples of Shiva. There is also a Gumfa named 'Shreemukhi' which is mentioned even in Kashi Khanda of Skanda Puraana. This Hanuman ji is still there from ancient times. He has NO temple now. Nearby Omkareshwar temple too was under attack as 'some' people wanted to build Kabrstan there. But this Hanuman ji is yet standing tall & powerful! Today, on Hanuman Jayanti, let us all pledge to restore the glory of this Hanuman ji temple.

An emotional Dalbir Kaur, Mr Singh's sister, accused the Pakistan government today of complicity in the fatal attack on the 49-year-old. "Pakistan stabbed India in the back," she said at a press conference in Delhi...

Now yet another brutal act against India, by the neighbouring nation. It was our Indian prisoner, Sarabjit Singh, who was languishing in the Pak jail, for no crime but for decades, who got severely attacked by the inmates of the jail. Being in a serious condition and in a coma for the past several days, he is now declared dead. His family & his near & dear ones, have been hoping for decades that one day he will return to India alive . But, The Indian government did nothing to get this Indian prisoner released by using the diplomatic channel properly. And now poor Sarabjit Singh is dead. Just a couple of months ago, we faced the most shameful and disgraceful act by the Pakistani army / terrorists of the Indian jawans being so inhumanely and brutally beheaded. They came into the Indian territory and killed our jawans and the head of one of the jawans was also carried away by them. Very sad indeed . And, as usual our government issued customary statements and now this has been now forgotten. An ...

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Thursday condoled the death of Sarabjit Singh, hailing him as a “brave son of India”, and attacked Pakistan for not heeding to pleas for taking a humanitarian view on this issue after the deadly attack on the Indian national in a Lahore jail.

Indian prisoner on death row in Pakistan has died at Jinnah hospital in Lahore. Lodged in Kot Lakhpat jail, Sarabjit was attacked brutally by a group of inmates on April 26 and was later admitted to the government hospital. The news of his demise has been confirmed by Pakistan media.

The Dandi March, also mainly known as the Salt Satyagraha, began with the Dandi March on March 12, 1930, and was an important part of the Indian Independence Movement. It was a direct action campaign of tax resistance and nonviolent protest against the British salt monopoly in colonial India, and triggered the wider Civil Disobedience Movement. This was the most significant organized challenge to British authority since the Non-cooperation movement of 1920–22, and directly followed the Purna Swaraj declaration of independence by the Indian National Congress on January 26, 1930. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (commonly called Mahatma Gandhi) led the Dandi march from his base, Sabarmati Ashram near Ahmedabad, to the sea coast near the village of Dandi. As he continued on this 24 day, 240 mile (390 km) march to produce salt without paying the tax, growing numbers of Indians joined him along the way. When Gandhi broke the salt laws at 6:30 am on April 6, 1930, it sparked large scale acts of civil disobedience a ...

Unionist Party (Punjab) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Unionist Muslim League, also known simply as the Unionist Party was a political party based in the province of Punjab during the period of British rule in India. The Unionist Party mainly represented the interests of the landed gentry and landlords of Punjab, which included Muslims, Hindus and Sikhs. The Unionists dominated the political scene in Punjab from World War I to the independence of South Asia, its division into India and Pakistan (and the partition of the province) in 1947. Organisation The Unionist Party, a secular party, was formed to represent the interests of Punjab's large feudal classes and gentry. Sir Sikandar Hyat Khan, Sir Fazli Husain and Sir Chhotu Ram were the co-founders of the party. Although a majority of Unionists were Muslims, a large number of Hindus and Sikhs also supported and participated in the Unionist Party. In contrast with the Indian National Congress and many other parties of the time, the Unionist Part ...

History of CONGRESS:-- Congress Party (officially Indian National Congress) Oldest political party in India, whose fortunes have often been intertwined with the Nehru dynasty. Founded in 1885, Congress was not prominent until after World War I, when ‘Mahatma’ Gandhi transformed it into a mass independence movement, agitating by means of civil disobedience. Jawaharlal Nehru became president of the Congress in 1929. In the 1937 provincial elections it gained power in many states. During World War II (after the British refused to grant self-government) it remained neutral. At independence (1947), Nehru became Prime Minister. Nehru's daughter Indira Gandhi became Prime Minister in 1966, but in 1969 was challenged by a right wing faction (led by Moraji Desai) causing a split in the party. Indira's Congress (I) suffered a landslide defeat at the elections of 1977. They returned to power in 1979, and in 1984 (after Indira's assassination) her son Rajiv Gandhi became leader, securing the party's re-election i ...

Hindutva The Mahasabha promoted the principles of Hindutva, a Hindu nationalist ideology developed by its pre-eminent leader Vinayak Damodar Savarkar.the Mahasabha identified India as "Hindu Rashtra" (Hindu Nation). Although it broadly supported the Indian National Congress in its efforts to attain national independence, it criticised the Congress commitment to non-violence, civil disobedience, secularism and its efforts to integrate Muslims and hold dialogue with the separatist Muslim League party, which the Mahasabha deemed to be appeasement.

I think no one knows this. Congress men hijacked Indian plane... December 20, 1978: Devendra Nath Pandey and Bhola Nath Pandey hijacked Indian Airlines flight IC-410. They demanded the immediate release of Indian National Congress party leader Indira Gandhi who was imprisoned at that time on the charges of fraud and misconduct. Later, they were awarded with party tickets for this act by the Indira Gandhi government in 1980 such that Devendra Nath Pandey rose to become a minister in the government of most populous state of India, Uttar Pradesh. This case was also mentioned by Jarnail Singh Bhindrawale to justify his claim regarding the hypocrisy of the Indian government. Reference: wikipedia

A friend in our circle has asked for information about Mazzini and Garibaldi , famous for unification of Italy in 1848. Savarkar and even Barathy have written about Mazzini. At the time of Savarkar, India had more than a 100 minor and major kingdoms.( [It was the Indian National Congress through Vallabhai Patel that achieved the miracle of liquidating all the princely states Indira Gandhi completed the process by abolishing the special grant to ex-kings!] ..t Some of them were progressive but most of them were terribly anti-people and reactionary. Moreover, almost all the princely states were under the control of British govt. A similar situation existed in Italy after Napolean and before 1848. Italy had numerous kingdoms warring with each other and very often siding with this foreign European power or that. Mazzini was a democrat . He did not like kings. He was a republican. Actually, the real hero of Italian Unification was Garibaldi. He was a daring soldier and general like Cromwell in Engl ...

You may be wondering who this Tehseen Poonawalla character is who was being hostile to Arvind on Headlines Today's 'Right to be Heard' program. He is none other than a side-kick of kalmadi implicated in the CWG scam and once proposed to be congress spokes-person as well as part of the congress think-tank of Sanjay Jha (Hamara Congress fame) and Poonawalla duo!! No wonder!! Poonawalla proposed appointment as a media spokesperson for Indian National Congress (I) If sources from within the Congress are to believed the party is going for a complete image makeover. While the party has got aggressive online to cater to a new and younger India- those in the know about things say that an AICC reshuffle is soon on the cards as also a CWC. The Rahul Gandhi team is keen to get their people in positions of authority. Also on the cards is a reshuffle in the spokespersons for the Congress. Under the chairmanship of Digvijaya Singh a media committee has been formed that is looking at media and publicity strategies for . ...

Quotes about Basava Whatever legend may say about Basava the fact is pretty clear that he was the first Indian free thinker. He might be called the Luther of India the acknowledge leadership of the priests was in full swing when Basava came upon the scene and there was a movement on foot to replace caste and priestly authority with intelligence and free thinking Basava a shaivaite Brahmin, was in the camp of liberals. He mounted the rostrum for the abolition of caste and ceremonies and preached that all men by birth equal that one sex was important as another. That child marriage was wrong and widows should be permitted to re marry he promised the Lingayat's the freedom of individual action. All wherever of divine Linga , where to occupy a common level. They were to eat together and intermarry. -Arthor Miles (Land of Lingama, London 1933 P-iii) At the Belgaum session of the Indian National Congress in 1924, Mahatma Gandhi spoke about Basavanna.

India is the world's most populous democracy. [ 139 ] A parliamentary republic with a multi-party system , [ 140 ] it has six recognised national parties , including the Indian National Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), and more than 40 regional parties . [ 141 ] The Congress is considered centre-leftor "liberal" in Indian political culture , and the BJP centre-right or "conservative". For most of theperiod between 1950—when India first became a republic—and the late 1980s, the Congress held a majority in the parliament. Since then, however, it has increasingly shared the political stage with the BJP, [ 142 ] as well as with powerful regional parties which have oftenforced the creation of multi-party coalitions at the centre. [ 143 ] In the Republic of India's first three general elections, in 1951, 1957, and 1962, the Jawaharlal Nehru -led Congress won easy victories. On Nehru's death in 1964, Lal Bahadur Shastri briefly became Prime Minister; he was succeeded, after his own unexpected d ...

Background of Kashmir Issue From 1846 to 1847, Kashmir was one and the largest of over 500 semi-independent princely states of what was then called the Indian Sub-Continent. These princely states which were under overall British suzerainty covered only a fraction of the Land and the population of the Sub- Continent. The rest, called British India, was under direct rule of the British. Towards the end of the first quarter of the present century, both the main political parties of the sub-continent, Indian National Congress and All India Muslim League had accelerated the struggle for freedom of the subcontinent. The Second World War further strengthened their movement and the British had to pledge them freedom after the war. The war ended in 1945 and by the end of 1946 it was clear that British Indian would be divided into two independent states. One confirmed by the declaration made by the British government on June 3, 1947 and on August 14 and 15, 1947 respectively came into existence two independent stat ...

Why Indian National Congress has not been dissolved after Independence? Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Patel are said to have held the view that the INC was formed only for achieving independence and should have been disbanded in 1947. But, the movement developed into a party developed against the wish of our Leaders Gandhi advised to dissolve the INC but the powers that were felt that wasn't necessary. But let me quote your very own Ramachandra Guha. With a past to honor - Despite what it has done to itself in recent years, history should still remember the Indian National Congress as one of the great political parties of the modern world. That, says Ramachandra Guha, explains why he is particularly angry with it. The case of the Congress is different. This was the party that led the movement for freedom, the party that united India and brought people of different religions and languages into a single political project. Its best leaders had a Universalist vision. Its ministers and legislators were once men an ...

Akali Dal was formed on December 14, 1920 as a task force of the Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee, the Sikh religious body. The Akali Dal considers itself the principal representative of Sikhs. Sardar Sarmukh Singh Chubbal was the first president of a unified proper Akali Dal, but it was under Master Tara Singh that Akali Dal became a force to reckon with. The party launched the Punjabi Suba movement to create a Sikh majority state in the undivided East Punjab under the leadership of Sant Fateh Singh. In 1966, the modern-day East Punjab was formed, but its division led to bitter conflict. Akali Dal came to power in Punjab, but many times the party's governments were dismissed due to internal conflicts & minute mandate in its favor. The Dal's chief opponent on the political front is the Indian National Congress. Its political ally in the state and at the centre is the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Since the population of Punjab is about 60% Sikh and 37% Hindu, the Akali Dal needs the support of as ...

Government and politics Kannur was once the nurturing ground and think tank of the Communist movement in Kerala, and was home of the famous communist leaders A.K. Gopalan, Azhikodan Raghavan and E. K. Nayanar, former Chief Minister of Kerala. K. Karunakaran, a former Chief Minister, also hails from Kannur. Communist parties have a strong base in this district. The Communist Party of India (Marxist)-led Left Democratic Front (LDF) governs five of six municipalities in Kannur district. Around 70% of the panchayats are governed by LDF. Despite of having a strong communist base, both the Member of Parliament and the Member of State Legislative Assembly representing the district are from Indian National Congress, the main political opponent of the left parties.

History of Arunachal Pradesh (Excerpts from the speech of Rakesh Kumar, ST (Hist) GHSS Miao presented during Statehood Day 2013 at Miao) History of Arunachal Pradesh dates back to thousands of years as we find reference of mountain Prabhu in Kalika Puran and Mahabharata as mentioned by Kalhana the 7th Century Sanskrit Poet in his book ‘Raj Tarangini. Today’s Arunachal is referred to as Udyadri or Udriyachal. All the historical and religious places like Parsuram Kund, Bhismaknagar, Malinithan, Itafort and temple of Goddess Tamreswari are sufficient evidences to certify the ancient origin of the state. In 1914 the entire region was under North Eastern Frontier Tract that was trifurcated into Frontier Tracks of Lakhimpur, Balipara and Sadiya in 1919. In 1930, the great revolutionary leader Sanat Dutta penetrated into NEFA and established contact with Chow Khamun Gohain, CM Gohain, and Tamit Dabi.

United Bangal Partition of Bengal (1947) In January 1947, Sarat Chandra Bose resigned from the Indian National Congress, partially in protest against the partition of Bengal. He called for an Independent Bengal separate from both India and Pakistan, and formed his own party - the Socialist Republican Party.[8][9] At that time, Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy and Abul Hashem, two Bengali leaders of the Muslim League also advocated for an Independent Bengal comprising both the Eastern (now Bangladesh) and Western (now West Bengal) parts of Bengal.[8][10] Akram Khan (politician) and Khawaja Nazimuddin, two other Muslim League leaders wanted a United Bengal as part of Pakistan. Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Mahasabha and Syama Prasad Mookerjee, founder of Bharatiya Jana Sangh which later was succeeded by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), opposed the idea of an Independent Bengal or a United Bengal.[8] Hindu Mahashabha and Mookerjee was concerned about Bose and Suhrawardy discussing a sovereign state of Bengal, while opposing t ...

I visited the website of Janata party just now and found that it is all about Dr. Subramanian swamy. I wanted to know more about the party but could not find anything about its past history and achievements etc. So I thought I will check the website of Indian National Congress, a party that has a glorious past, having played a crucial role in Indian freedom struggle. But all that I could find is about the glory of Sonia, Rahul and Manmohan Singh and another section for Rajeev Gandhi. The website of Indian National Congress could have been enriched by incorporating a lot of things about its heritage and history and photos etc. from the time of its formation; but curiously enough, these things are just given a small section that is not prominently displayed in the website. I had expected to see the photos of Indira Gandhi, J.Nehru et.al in the front page itself.

These were the reasons for the creation of Pakistan. _ Pandit Malaviya’s “Final Solution” to the Muslim problem was to be patterned on the Spanish Inquisition. The aim of the Shuddi movement was to end Islam in India by violent means. The Two Nation Theory was propagated by Malviya. He wanted to eliminate all Muslims in South Asia.

After the 2004 general elections, the Indian National Congress ended the incumbent National Democratic Alliance (NDA) tenure by becoming the political party with the single largest number of seats in the Lok Sabha. It formed United Progressive Alliance (UPA) with allies and staked claim to form government. In a surprise move, Chairperson Sonia Gandhi declared Manmohan Singh, a technocrat, as the UPA candidate for the Prime Ministership. Despite the fact that Singh had never won a Lok Sabha seat, he "has enjoyed massive popular support, not least because he was seen by many as a clean politician untouched by the taint of corruption that has run through many Indian administrations."He took the oath as the Prime Minister of India on 22 May 2004.

Let’s do away with the noose Hanging one or two individuals or even a group of people is not going to end the issue of terrorism and violence. Dr. Annie Besant (1847-1933) a great Theosophist, Home Ruler and the first woman president of the Indian National Congress wrote in her autobiography Chapter VI: “I lifted up my voice in all our great towns [in England] trying to touch the consciences of the people, and to make them feel the immorality of a land stealing, piratical policy. Against war, against capital punishment, against flogging, demanding national education instead of big guns, public libraries instead of warships…” Now, again, the debate is on the subject of capital punishment. Why great people like Dr. Besant opposed capital punishment and other barbarous punishments like flogging and chopping off the limbs? All over the world, civilised societies are against such unethical punishments and they suggest prison reforms and penal codes framed centuries back. The question i ...

The Jallianwala Bagh massacre:- (michael dwyer killer of Jallianwala Bagh) took place in the Jallianwala Bagh public garden in the northern Indian city of Amritsar on 13 April 1919. The shooting that took place was ordered by Brigadier-General Reginald E.H. Dyer. On Sunday, 13 April 1919, Dyer was convinced of a major insurrection and thus he banned all meetings. On hearing that a meeting of 15,000 to 20,000 people including women, children and the elderly had assembled at Jallianwala Bagh, Dyer went with fifty riflemen to a raised bank and ordered them to shoot at the crowd. Dyer continued the firing for about ten minutes, till the ammunition supply was almost exhausted; Dyer stated that 1,650 rounds had been fired, a number which seems to have been derived by counting empty cartridge cases picked up by the troops.Official British Indian sources gave a figure of 379 identified dead,[1] with approximately 1,100 wounded. The casualty number estimated by the Indian National Congress was more than 1,500, wit ...

Dr. Karan Singh has remained in the political limelight from his years of youth, first succeeding his father Maharaja Hari Singh as Regent in 1949, then as the Sadr-i-Riyasat of Jammu and Kashmir and then as the Governor of the State. In 1967, Dr Karan Singh was inducted as a member of the Union Cabinet headed by Prime Minister Smt. Indira Gandhi. Thereafter, he was elected to the Lok Sabha from Udhampur Parliamentary constituency in Jammu Division as a nominee of Indian National Congress and he continued to retain this Constituency in the Parliamentary elections of 1971, 1977 and 1980.He also served as India's Ambassador to United States of America from 1989 to 1990. At present, he is a member of the Rajya Sabha.

Indian nationalist leader. Born Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi on October 2, 1869 in Porbandar, Kathiawar, West India. He studied law in London, but in 1893 went to South Africa, where he spent 20 years opposing discriminatory legislation against Indians. As a pioneer of Satyagraha, or resistance through mass non-violent civil disobedience, he became one of the major political and spiritual leaders of his time. Satyagraha remains one of the most potent philosophies in freedom struggles throughout the world today. In 1914, Gandhi returned to India, where he supported the Home Rule movement, and became leader of the Indian National Congress, advocating a policy of non-violent non-co-operation to achieve independence.

Subhas Chandra Bose Today is his birthday. He was born on 23rd January,1897. Subhas Chandra Bose ( listen (help·info); 23 January 1897 – unknown) also known as Netaji (Bengali/Oriya/Hindi): “Respected Leader”), was one of the most prominent Indian nationalist leaders who attempted to gain India's independence from British rule by force during the waning years of World War II with the help of the Axis powers. Bose, who had been ousted from the Indian National Congress in 1939 following differences with the more conservative high command,[1] and subsequently placed under house arrest by the British, escaped from India in early 1941.[2] He turned to the Axis powers for help in gaining India's independence by force.[3] With Japanese support, he organised the Indian National Army, composed largely of Indian soldiers of the British Indian army who had been captured in the Battle of Singapore by the Japanese. As the war turned against them the Japanese came to support a number of countries to form provisi ...

Popular Front of India condemns Shinde apology New Delhi: The Popular Front of India has strongly condemned the apology tendered by Shri Sushil Kumar Shinde ,the Central Home Minister to BJP for the observations he had made at the Chintan Shibir session of the Indian National Congress held in Jaipur. It may be true that the Home Minister should have used a more appropriate term to name the people behind murderous bomb blasts from Malgaon to Samjhauta Express But no mincing of words would help cover up the Hindutwa hands behind the dastardly crimes in which dozens of innocents have been killed or seriously wounded. The National Investigation Agency has documented convincing evidence against the Sangh Parivar activists and exposed the network operated by people inspired by the RSS philosophy. It is quite unfortunate that the UPA government and its top leaders meekly surrender to the pressure tactics of the Sangh Parivar at the drop of a hat. Such somersaults only create confusion about the avowed secular cr ...

THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGE PROBLEM OF INDIA AN OPEN LETTER TO ALL TRUE CONGRESSMEN FROM KANYAKUMARI TO KASHMIR. The Indian National Congress is the only All India Party which fought for the freedom of our country. It is also the only one party which has sacrificed thousands and thousands of workers for our freedom struggle. It is the only party which has completed 127 years since its inception. All those congressmen were selfless leaders, some of them are seniors to Mahatma Gandhi, others are juniors to Mahatma Gandhi. All those leaders are honest, straight forward, sincere and devoted congressmen. Indian National Congress was their blood and life. We have duly honoured most of our leaders of the past but we have miserably failed to honour some of them. One such great man was from Tamilnad. He loved the Congress Party from his college days, when he was studying in the Madras Law College, he was beaten by the police of the British Raj for having participated in the Satyagraha of the Congress Movement. He partic ...

BAD LUCK OF INDIA Everything started in early 1946 when the Indian National Congress had to elect a new president. It was an accepted fact that the leader chosen as Congress president would become the first Prime Minister of independent India. Three candidates were in the race: Acharya Kripalani, Jawaharlal Nehru, and Sardar Patel. The working committee of the INC and the pradesh committees had to send their nomination for one of the three candidates. Sardar Patel was easily the most popular. Everyone knew his efficiency and his toughness for tackling difficult problems. Twelve out of 19 Pradesh committees nominated him. None nominated Nehru. From the start Gandhi had indicated that he favoured Nehru. His reasoning was that his British education was an asset: 'Jawaharlal cannot be replaced today whilst the charge is being taken from the British. He, a Harrow boy, a Cambridge graduate, and a barrister, is wanted to carry on the negotiations with the Englishmen.' Another point Gandhi made was that while Sar ...

The BJP is a direct successor of the Bharatiya Jana Sangh (BJS, Indian People's Union), founded in 1951 by Syama Prasad Mookerjee, a nationalist leader, former Union Minister and freedom-fighter. It was considered the political wing of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh.Formed to suppress the congress ideology But the fortunes of the young party took a dip in 1953, when Mookherjee was jailed in Kashmir by then Indian Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru. After his death in custody, the BJS lasted for 24 more years, but never seriously challenged the power of Indian National Congress, the only well-structured political party since India's independence. It did however groom future political leaders like Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Lal Krishna Advani. When Indira Gandhi imposed a state of emergency in 1975, postponing elections and making contested use of major central powers granted to her by the Constitution, the BJS joined a coalition of parties in active protest. Several of its leaders were arrested. But when elec ...

Indira Gandhi Indira Gandhi, thrice Prime Minister of India. The first serious challenge to Congress hegemony came in 1967 when a new coalition, under the banner of the Samyukt Vidhayak Dal, won control over several states in the Hindi belt. Indira Gandhi (not related to Mahatma Gandhi), the daughter of Nehru, and Congress president, was then challenged by the majority of the party leadership. The conflict led to a split, and Indira launched a separate INC. Initially this party was known as Congress (R), but it soon came to be generally known as the "New Congress". The official party became the Indian National Congress (Organisation) (INC(O)) led by Kamaraj. It was informally called the "Old Congress". As Indira Gandhi had control over the national state machinery, her faction was seen as the official INC by the Election Commission of India, although her party was a break-away group.

Gandhi Jee and Indian Independence Movement In 1915, Gandhi returned from South Africa to live in India. Since 1915 through a long struggle and determination he became a major political and spiritual leader of India and the Indian Independence Movement. He was the pioneer of Satyagraha —resistance to tyranny through mass civil disobedience, firmly founded upon ahimsa or total non-violence—which led India to independence and inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. The major milestone of the Struggle for Indian Independence (1916–1945) were: In 1918 : The Champaran agitation and Kheda Satyagraha. Gandhi employed non-cooperation, non-violence and peaceful resistance as his "weapons" in the struggle against British. In 1921: Sabarmati Ashram became Gandhi's home in Gujarat in December 1921. Gandhi was invested with executive authority on behalf of the Indian National Congress. Under his leadership, the Congress was reorganized with a new constitution, with the goal of Swa ...

The first Indian Prime Minister Pandit Nehru (1889-1964) was a Freemason and Illuminati shill. He was in bed, in more ways than one, with Lord Mountbatten and his wife Edwina. As we know, the biggest Illuminati project of the 20th century was Communism. The Illuminati fostered the growth of the Indian National Congress through its operatives, A.O Hume and William Wederburn. The idea was to create an independent India which would be a proxy for the Soviets. For this purpose, Indian Freemasonry worked overtime to groom local Indian Mason operatives. According to this official Masonic website, "Swami Vivekananda (initiated in 1884 under the name of Bro. Narendra Nath Dutt in Lodge Anchor & Hope, Calcutta).

Remove the Portrait of Savarkar fromIndian Parliament Savarkar underwent a serious metamorphosis during his years in jail in the Andamans between 1911 and 1921. He subjected himself to theBritish and pleaded clemency on theirconditions and agreed to give full co-operation to them. Many documents to this effect are availablein the national archives. He also worked against Gandhi and the Indian National Congress, which were the symbols of Indian national movement of indian freedom struggle. The conditions in the prison of the Andamans were no doubt harsh but not a few patriots faced it courageously. But Savarkar was not one among them. He appealed for clemency, first in 1911 and then again in 1913 , the latter during the visit of Sir Reginald Craddock. In a letter dated November 14, 1913 Savarkar (convict no. 32778) wrote to the home minister of Britsih Government.

Philosophy of Subhash Chandra Bose: Ramesh C Manghirmalani The principles and the philosophy of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose were instrumental factors in his embracing of armed revolution in the later part of his political career. Initially Bose was a follower of the Gandhian way of freedom movement but years of travel in European countries during exile and the ripening of mental faculties with age made him disenchanted with the ways of the Indian National Congress. Subhash Chandra's hatred for the British ran deep and he vehemently called for the immediate ouster of the colonial rulers from Indian soil. Disappointed with the leniency shown by some Congress leaders towards the British, Bose became increasingly convinced that the goal of achieving freedom would remain a pipedream as long as the British held sway over the land and peaceful protests would never be able to throw the British out. While outlining his vision for a free India, Subhash Chandra Bose proclaimed that socialist authoritarianism would . ...

Gandhi - 'Mahatma' or Flawed Genius? National Leader or Manipulative Politician? Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was born in 1869 in a stately and handsome three-storied home in Porbandar, grandson of the chief administrator of the small Princely State in coastal Gujarat. Acknowledging that he was born into a family of politicians, always involved in secret alliances and mutual promotions, in one letter, he wrote: "I knew then, and know better now, that much of my father's time was taken up in mere intrigue." In another letter to his nephew, Chaganlal, he acknowledged the notoriety of his political family: "...that is, we are known to belong to a band of robbers". It is to Gandhi's credit that he saw his family for what it was, and attempted to transcend it's narrow Modh Bania outlook; but often, subconsciously learned behavior dies hard. The tendency towards backroom wheeling and dealing did not entirely escape Gandhi himself as he rose to become the Indian National Congress's most influential political l ...

"Moderates" versus "Extremists" in the battle for "Swaraj" and "Swadeshi" Even as loyalist pressures cast a long shadow on political currents that were to influence the Indian elite of the late nineteenth century, rapidly deteriorating economic conditions also led to a heightened degree of radicalization amongst the most advanced sections of the new Indian intelligentsia. Ajit Singh in Punjab, Bal Gangadhar Tilak in Maharashtra, Chidambaram Pillay in Tamil Nadu and Bipin Chandra Pal in Bengal formed the nucleus of a new nationalist movement that tried valiantly, but mostly unsuccessfully to move the conservative leadership of the Indian National Congress in a more radical direction. Most charismatic amongst the new national leaders was Bal Gangadhar Tilak (b. 1856, d. 1920). Portrayed as anti-Muslim by the Muslim-League, maligned by India's colonial rulers and British loyalists as an "extremist", and misrepresented as a sectarian Hindu revivalist by some historians, Tilak was in fact, one of the leadin ...

CONGRESS HIGH COMMAND MUST UNDERSTAND LOCAL LEADERS = The main debacle of Gujarat Congress mainly suggest that they failed to project a single man as their leader and always move on speculations on Shankar Sinh Vagela ,Shaktisinh Gohil ,Arjunbhai Modhwadia and even on Ahemedbhai Patel and this gives a fractured unity amongst ranks and files of leaders ,co workers on district ,taluka level and as a result Gujarat Congress could not convert huge gatherings in every rallys into votes by creating a confusion in to electorate . Gujarat lose of Indian National Congress is also due to over domination of Central leadership to local leaders as Birbhadra Singh did not allow central leaders to dominate Himachal politics so they won but in Gujarat central leaders have spoiled the Gujarat 's chance of winning by wrong selection of candidate and excessive domination on local leaders despite there was clear anti Modi wave .So Gujarat Congress lost but it is interesting that vote share of Gujarat Congress increased to 40 ...

Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose stood for Swaraj (self-governance), including the use of force against the British. This meant a confrontation with Mohandas Gandhi, who in fact opposed Bose's presidency, splitting the Indian National Congress party. Bose attempted to maintain unity, but Gandhi advised Bose to form his own cabinet. The rift also divided Bose and Nehru. Bose appeared at the 1939 Congress meeting on a stretcher. He was elected president again over Gandhi's preferred candidate Pattabhi Sitaramayya.U. Muthuramalingam Thevar strongly supported Bose in the intra-Congress dispute. Thevar mobilised all south India votes for Bose. However, due to the manoeuvrings of the Gandhi-led clique in the Congress Working Committee, Bose found himself forced to resign from the Congress presidency.

India & saffron terrorism REPORTS coming in from a Congress meeting in Jaipur, India, quoted Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde as saying: “Reports have come during investigations that the BJP and RSS conduct terror training camps in India to spread terrorism … Bombs were planted in the Samjhauta Express and Makkah Masjid while an explosion took place in Malegaon. We will have to think about it seriously and will have to remain alert. This is saffron terrorism that I have talked about.” This is a rare admission coming from the Indian National Congress that seems to be under considerable pressure from the Hindu right in view of the next elections. Although there has been an immediate denial coming from the Bharatiya Janata Party quarters, this admission explains some of the problems also that India and Pakistan have in their dealing with terrorism that is, as we can see, not a Pakistani problem alone. Still, why did then the Indian Prime Minister at the same meeting allege that Pakistan was exporting ...

Gutsy Women of India Sahodara Bai Rai (also referred to as Subhadra Bai), a brave lady of Khangar clan, actively took part inGoa revolution of 1950s against Portuguese rulers, under the banner of Congress. While leading a procession of women revolutionaries, with Indian tricolor in her hand, she was fired upon by the Portuguese soldiers. She bravely bore the bullets but didn't let the tricolor fall down. Her bravery impressed Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru so much that he made her an important leader of the Indian National Congress. A women's polytechnic in Sagar district of Madhya Pradesh has been named after her, by the government, as a mark of respect to her.

Origin of Republic Day India became independent from the British Rule on 15th August, 1947. However, the country did not have its own constitution and wholly depended on the modified colonial Government of India Act, 1935. Also, India was headed by King George VI, until the adoption of the Indian Constitution in 1950. Prior to this, the seeds of a republican nation were sowed by Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru in the Lahore session at the Indian National Congress at the midnight of 31st December, 1929 - 1st January, 1930. The tri-color flag was unfurled by the nationalists present who took a pledge to celebrate ‘Purna Swaraj’ (complete Independence) Day every year on 26th January, while continuing to fight for the establishment of a Sovereign Democratic Republic of India. The independence was achieved in 1947 while the professed pledge was redeemed on 26th January, 1950. The Indian Constituent Assembly was called together on 9th December, 1946, where a committee was formed. Dr. B.R. Ambedkar became the chairman ...

PANCHSHEEL of POWER ! Dear Edvige Antonia Albina Maino (alias Sonia Gandhi), This was supposed to be a piece of advise to the Government of India , but since only a Congress supporter or an *** can say or believe that you are not the 'Government', hence this piece is meant for you. I am just a typical self-effacing Indian citizen, or as one of your kin - a certain Mr. Vadra, who knows me better would say- a typical 'Mango Man of a Banana Republic'. Now that I have introduced myself (with the mandatory reference in place, to prove my credentials) let me just cut it short for you, as I know your time is best spent in activities absolutely critical for the survival of the 'Banana Republic' - activities such as crying, because: (1) Power is poison ! ( Your next-of-kin Mr. Vadra showed us how !) (2) Two 'pilgrims' met their maker ! (aint Azamgarh a favored tourist-spot for patrons from across the border ?) (3) Your son make you proud ! ( yes ofcourse , bearing that 'hallowed' family name is an accomplishmen .. ...

HINDU-SIKH MINORITIES IN PAKISTAN: THE VANISHING COMMUNITIES Posted on | March 20, 2010 | 25 Comments I was inspired to write this essay by a Pakistani journalist friend. Later, during a lecture tour in South East Asian countries, where Indian and Chinese origin minorities are also discriminated I noticed that the minorities are palpably anguished. The latest incidents of organized attacks by Bengali Muslims on hill dwelling Chakma tribals in Khagrachari areas firmed up my decision to chronicle a preliminary account of the conditions of the non-Muslim minorities in Pakistan. I had earlier written a piece on the plight of the Pakistani Christians. I have not touched upon the plight of the Shia and Ahmadiya (non-Muslim) communities in Pakistan, which require international attention. Not a single Indian Muslim religious seminary has so far condemned Pakistan for inhuman treatment of the Shia and Ahmadiya communities. I am indebted to a member of the Pakistan Human Rights Commission and several young Pakistan ...

To Doubt Patriotism Of RSS is to doubt Patriotism.To compare it's doing with those who spread terror in India and seeks to divide India's Unity and integrity, with those who want Indian States to be separated from India Only Speaks of the sickness these people have in their mind. I wonder As to why the Judiciary does not step in between to stop such comments on an organization known for it's Patriotic, secular values and sacrifices like Congress barring those who have their own independent but sick mind and perception to co relate and misunderstand the difference between Professional Killers and those who stand for the cause of people or Nation. Rss is not a political Party unto itself. It just supports BJP because as a party they seek RSS support.

"Happy Independence Day" ??? It is in a funny way we treat important dates. August 15 is a day of celebration. It gave us independence … What does January 26 mean to us. Few people see beyond the unabashed display of arms and the President’s speech because we do not go into what it really stood for. The need to understand the history behind 26 January comes from the fact that only the past makes 26 January 26 January. 26 January, unlike popular belief, stood for Independence. … [On] 26 January, 1930 was the day India promulgated the declaration of Independence or the pledge of Purna Swaraj. On that day we declared ourselves an independent country, no longer under the clutches of the imperialists. The Declaration began “We believe that it is the incredible right of the Indian people, as of any other people, to have freedom to enjoy the fruits of their soil and have the necessities of life, so that they may have full opportunities of growth… if any government deprives a people of these and oppress ...

Gandhi's Passion The Life and Legacy of Mahatma Gandhi By STANLEY WOLPERT Oxford University Press Midnight in Calcutta Mahatma Gandhi fell into "darkest despair" on the eve of India's independence in August 1947. Savage fighting spread from Punjab and the North-West Frontier to Eastern Bengal and Bihar. Brutal violence unleashed a year earlier by Muslim thugs in Calcutta had triggered Hindu counterattacks and the murder of more Muslims in Bihar. Mayhem, rape, and murder spread to the villages of Bengal as well, each report inciting more massacres of innocents as communal hatred raged across most of South Asia's subcontinent. On July 17, 1947, acting on the advice of India's Prime Minister-in-waiting, Jawaharlal Nehru, and the consent of Pakistan's governor-general-to-be M. A. Jinnah, Viceroy Lord Mountbatten won his government's final approval to partition Punjab and Bengal along religious lines prior to Great Britain's withdrawal from India. Their plan to carve up British India was never approved of or a ...

Subhash Chandra Bose- Man, Myth & Mystery He had the audacity to swim against the tide and the guts to chase impossible dreams. Over 67 years after his purported death in a plane crash, subhash chandra bose retains his unending enigma, writes Sutanu Guru with Dhrutikam Mohanty SUTANU GURU | Issue Dated: February 3, 2013, New Delhi Tags : Subhash Chandra Bose | | Everything changes, and then it looks as if nothing has changed in an ancient land like India. Just a few kilometers away, people have been vehemently protesting the scheduled arrival of the Pakistani women cricket team to practice and play a World Cup match. Just about a month and a half ago, thousands gathered nearby in the shadows of a majestic fort to celebrate what is called the Bali Yatra. This festival goes back at least two thousand years when brave traders ventured into the Bay of Bengal to travel to lands called Bali, Java and Sumatra (modern day Indonesia). But for the motley crowd gathered in a neighborhood called Odia Bazaar in Cutta ...

Happy Republic Day; a timefor introspection Source: New Delhi: India was transformed into a democracy exactly 64 years ago. The Indian Constitution made Indian citizens the masters of their own fate. The Constitution aimed at creating an India where opportunities abounded, equality persisted, the meritorious encouraged, and moreover, people ruled. Sadly, as we introspect, none of the objectives have been completely fulfilled. Instead of people, personalities have dominated the stage, who rule according to their whims, irrespective of what voters want. The common man is well aware of the ruse of Indian politicians who come to their doorstep toonly to solicit votes. 35 percent of Indian population still lives on below $2 a day, with no means and opportunities to earn their livelihood. Instead of the able and knowledgeable being promoted and encouraged, the cronies of the political class with deplorable credentials getpriority. The fact was acknowledged by Congress Vice-President Rahul Gandhi at the recent J ...

On the eve of Republic Day, let this be the thread to send one line advices to the Indian Government. The three most "liked" statements will be published in the next post.

The republic day of India is the biggest highlight of the start of every year. It’s celebrated on 26th of January, as a reminder of the official enactment of the first constitution of India. The republic day is one of the remarkable days in Indian history, and thus acquired the importance of a national holiday in every city and state of the country. It’s specifically celebrated in New Delhi with great honor for the Indian Constitution and nostalgia of the gone by days that shaped the history for present day India. Although India was formerly regarded as a separate state since 15th of August, it kept following The Government of Indian Act 1935, from 1947 until 1950. On August 29, 1947, right after partition, a committee was organized into motion, to decide onto the future constitution for the country. This committee was headed by Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar who finally led to the drafting of the constitution. The draft was presented to the assembly on November 4th 1947, and the assembly met for about 166 da ...

My sister's and brother's of India, The Nation has witnessed many Ups & Downs in the past one year. Our Country is riddled with a deep rooted Corruption in the public life. Burtal gang rape case at Delhi & be-heading of a soldier at the north-west border in the recent past were most painful amongst all. Yet then let us not forget that Life will always move in the direction of the best . On the way we may find some rough roads but they will lead us to a better life. The wise see their past as destiny, the future as free will and are happy in the present. The un -wise regret the past, think the future is destined and are miserable in the present. On this auspicious occasion of REPUBLIC DAY, let us make a choice. Let us celebrate this great day, knowing that life is eternal. Celebration is an attitude. It does not need any resource. To celebrate life we don't have to spend a lot of money. Celebration comes from enthusiasm & joy. from, a fellow Indian. (these are not my words)

The changing fortunes of MIM - By Mir Ayoob Ali Khan | Jan 26, 2013, 01.46 AM IST {ALL POSSIBLE IF UNITED WE STAND, BEWARE OF THOSE FEW BLACK-SHEEPS “…. The Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul Muslimeen (MIM) was on an ascent before the present round of troubles began for the party. For the first time since its rebirth in 1957, the party had seven MLAs, two MLCs and a member in the Lok Sabha. If sources are to be believed, it had almost clinched a Rajya Sabha seat in a deal with the Congress two years ago. In the GHMC area, MIM is the second largest party after the Congress and now the first citizen of Hyderabad, Mayor Majid Hussain is from its ranks. Old-timers recall that the party, after edging out the BJP from core areas of the Old City like Chandrayangutta in the 1980s, put its stamp of domination on the Karwan assembly seat. It also successfully snatched the Asifnagar assembly seat from the Congress. After winning Malakpet for the first time in 2009, MIM was consolidating its influence on the seat. This was eve ...

A Raja stormed the scene with 1 lac 76 thousand Crore scam, Kalmadi wanted us to believe that billing a toilet roll for 4000 Rupees was justified and a scam of 40 Crores was justified as well. And then Shri Prakash Jaiswal came up with the mother of all scams, 186000 Crore colagate scam. That money “didn’t grow on trees”, that was a common tax payer’s money. Recently when two of our soldiers were killed, one of them was beheaded and you went back to the “I strongly condemn” mode. You have allowed our neighbours to dictate their terms. Kasab was executed after four years of trial and he feasted like kings in a six crore cell funded by common tax payers like us. Afzal Guru is still undergoing his art of living classes and it has been more than 8 years now. Prices of everything has skyrocketed and the Government concludes that an earning of Rs 32/- or more per day doesn’t put you into the BPL list. Our Agriculture minister instead of coming with some strong agrarian policies or reforms is busy ...

First of all i wish you all a very happy Republic day. This 26 of jan our nation celebrates its 64th republic day. This is so great and special day, which reminds us the days when our great leaders fought for India against British to achive independence and peace. We salute those who have laid down their lives for the safety and security of the nation. The origin of Republic day goes back to pre- Independence Days of 1929, when the Indian National Congress during its Lahore session under the President ship of Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru passed a resolution declaring ‘Complete Independence’ as the goal of the nation and decided to celebrate 26th January every year as the Independence Day throughout the length and breadth of the country. From then on till the dawn of independence on Aug. 1947, the nation celebrated 26th Jan. as Independence Day. Later, when India wanted a day to mark its official birth 26th January, the Independence Day of the pre-Independence Days was chosen. On this day, 26th Jan. 1950 India ...

Political Secrets The tradition and cultural history of India together with its strong spiritual living style, originating from the vedas, has made the people of this country a very open society. Open, not in the type of America where there is excess consumerism but open to new ideas, criticism, etc. For this reason people with varied perceptions of God have formed their own branches but lived toghether in a harmonious way. The reasons for wars between kings is usually for resources and for expansion of empire, just not like USA, Europe who have been expanding their market reach using UN, WTO and also spreading their religion into the weaker African and other third world countries. But the society that once has been knowledge centre of this world, now has become a service provider with little or no significant innovation singly attributed to our countrymen in the recent years. One reason is the belief system that has been incorporated that the great men of this country never existed and Mr.Macualay has do ...
