Death of a Salesman - Jyoti Basu
Haldiram owner, 4 others get life imprisonment in murder case!
Crossing through the Avenue just before Bankshall Court in BBD Bagh area in Kolkata this evening AMUSED me to relish the FUN of so called Mainstream Media which Crowed with the OB Vans on the doors of the court as Kolkata Marwari Businessmen, HLDIRAM owner has been sentenced LIFE Term this afternoon. What a GLORIFICATION of Corrupt Indian Judiciary System which Bails out the Influential People so many time as BOFORS case and defence Kickbacks exposed finely. AMBANI Brothers` Dispute Robs off against Indigenous Aboriginal and Minority Landscape and alienated within the Hindu Nation. The Raj and the Zionist Dynasty and defend the Crores of Indian Revenue as the Supreme court is unable to pass any result so far. SC Icon Mayawati, OBC leaders Lalu Prasad Yadav and Mulayam singh Yadav have been TRAPPED well as has been Shibu Soren to remain MUTE supporter of the All Out Assult Humanscape Brahmin Presence Overloaded in the so called IMPARTIAL Judiciary in fact works for the Brhamin Bania Manusmriti Rule as the Stetue of MANU Maharaj in the High Court Premise in Jai Pur proves very well.
Indian Supreme Court deleted the Name of late Comrade Jyoti Basu from the list of Accused in MARICHJHANPI Massacre case which occured right in January , 1979. Basu is dead and the exclusion of his name seems quite justified. But the question remains unanswered why the Judiciary, Intelligentsia, Media and Civil Society so GENUINE, SO IMPARTIAL remained MUTED all these years almost Thirty Five years while the Brahaminical Zionist Hegemony King and Gestapo head Genocide Master Comrade Jyoti Basu was Ruling and Active, Alive!
Action Alert!
Day after Tomorrow on 31st January we do Celebrate MARICHJHANPI day to ENSURE NO MARICHJHANPI in future. Please Join us in Bharat Sabha Hall, on BB Ganguli St. , near the Connector on Central Avenue and the Metro stateion sharp on 3PM. We would be presenting some of the Victims and Eye Witnesses of the Massacre. The President of Nagarik Manch, Professor SUNAND Sanyal and other dignitaries would be present. Please Come! I am posting the Original Invitation and the relevant Leaflet in Bengali with this write up.

Prabhu Shankar Agarwal, the owner of confectionery chain Halidram Bhujiawala, and four other accused were sentenced to life imprisonment
| |||||||||||||||
Prabhu Shankar Agarwal was convicted by Tapan Sen, judge of fourth fast track court at Bankshall here along with history-sheeters Gopal Tiwari, Arun Khandelwal, Manoj Sharma and Raju Sonkar.
Agarwal and others were found guilty of conspiring to murder Pramod Sharma, nephew of the tea stall owner Satyanarayan Sharma on March 30, 2005.
Agarwal had faced obstruction in the construction of a huge food plaza at Burrabazar as the entrance was blocked by a tea stall owned by Satyanarayan, who was running it for the last 50 years.
Agarwal, who had got other tenants to vacate the premises on Jugmohan Mallick Lane, could not make the tea stall owner to move out.
The prosecution had stated that Satyanarayan had been threatened by the accused a few days before the attack.
In the early morning of March 30, Tiwari and his henchmen raided the shop and fired seriously injuring Pramod Sharma.
Agarwal, who was in London to open his first overseas food plaza at the time of the attack, was arrested when he returned home two months later.
Agarwal was arrested at IGI Airport as soon as he landed and was handed over to the Kolkata Police.
The other accused persons were also arrested. All of the them, were however, released on bail later.
The prosecution, during trial, submitted that Tiwari and his henchmen had embarked on the murder bid at the behest of Agarwal.
While Agarwal was convicted under sections 307 (attempt to murder) and 120B (conspiracy), the other four were found also found guilty under the Arms Act. )

"THE CITIZENSHIP AMENDMENT ACT-2003 IS A CONSPIRACY TO COMMIT THE EN MASSE HOMICIDE OF MULNIVASIES IN GENERAL AND MIGRATARY BENGALEES OF EAST BENGAL IN PARTICULAR SETTLED PERMANENTLY IN VARIOUS PLACES AND PARTS OF INDIA". Addressing the last session of the 1st day of the 22nd National Convention held at Agra, Mr. Waman Meshram says that the subject designed for this session is very important in view of Nationwide Movement. The citizenship Amendment Act. 2003 alternatively as long as this Act remains applicable which has deprived the migratory Bengalis from their rights for citizenship, their problem could not be/would not be sorted out and solved until and unless it is seen to combine with the movement of our great dignitaries and personalities of Bengolies and linking it with the prospective to revive it in the form shape thereof as the Nationwide Movement.

Brahminical forces are trying to retain their monopoly, domination and rule through judiciary and hence, are using judiciary for this purpose Mr. D. K, Khaparde, National President of BAMCEF presided over the function. Concluding the discussions, and debate on the topic, he said, I am connected with the activities of our people in Delhi for last 25 years or so. I have found a large scale change has come in the ways of thinking of our people all over the country. But our educated people in Delhi have no change. You may keep any function for any purpose, but they have nothing to say, except expressing their demands However, we must know that beggars can not be choosers. They can not say that they want some particular thing. They can only beg. BAMCEF is trying to bring awakening in the society since last 25 years, on all these aspects and today the broad impact of this awakening is very much visible. BAMCEF does note keep on, only weeping. Instead it thinks ahead of that. The purpose behind keeping discussions on judiciary is not about demanding reservation in judiciary. It is, a very small aim. Babasaheb Ambedkar has alway told his people to keep great aim, if you want produce great result. And to decide your aim in proper perspective, you have to first identify your problem. Today's topic is concerned with our attempts to Understand this issue of judiciary and how the brahminical forces are trying to counter the emergence of the oppressed castes by using judiciary. |

| BRAHMIN - BANIYA PRINT MEDIA - IS NOT A MEDIA OF PROPAGATION OF INFORMATION ALONE, BUT A CONSPIRATION MEDIA OF CONTROLLING THE BRAIN AND MIND OF BAHUJAN SAMAJ WHAT IS BRAHMIN - BANIYA PRINT MEDIA? In a Democracy, the press media has to play a very important role . In any democracy, creating public opinion is a duty of press media. A real democracy cannot function without public opinion. Basically, Democracy is against Brahminism. Therefore, in a democratic setup, Brahminism cannot survive. The Brahmins know it very well. it is due to this fact, the Brahminism has formulated its own strategy and policy to control this fourth pillor of democracy (Press Media) with a view to establish control over it and to convert it into Brahminocracy. As a result of this strategy, today we find that the press media is under control of Brahmins & Bahiyas. If you have a cursory look at the press-Media, we can find that the chain-papers of the country are being owned by Baniyas, whether it is a "HINDUSTAN TIMES" group of Birla, "TIMES OF INDIA" group of Jain-Dalmiya, 'EXPRESS" group of Goenka, "PIONEER" group of Thapar or "LOKMAT" group of Darda or "JAGARAN" group of Agarwal. Form this group of publication, it can be proved that these, "chain-papers" are controlled by Baniyas. These chain-papers have very many striking features. The most important feature of these publications is that, they prepare the readers, to think the same way, as these papers ought to think and the most dangerous thing about these Chain-papers is that their influence is not limited to the readers alone, but most dominating influence of them can be seen over language and regional papers. The policy or the information-instructions, these chain papers decide, the same is being followed and repeated by language and regional papers. The way the "FUNDS" of Baniyas are controlling the print media, the same way the "BRAIN" and "PEN" of Brahmins is controlling it. it is therefore, we call this Print Media a "BRAHMIN-BANIYA Print Media". There are other features of Brahmin-Baniya Print Media, because of which it can be easily identified. These features are given below in brief;-

Resonant Justice Police needs better superintendence It is more than mere judicial tut-tutting. The setback has been devastating and the nature of governance in West Bengal must now be open to question as never before. Friday's order of Calcutta High Court (coram: SS Nijjar, CJ; and Pinaki Chandra Ghose, J) leaves the government without a leg to stand upon. The conduct of the administration stands indicted with the observation that the 14 March firing in Nandigram was "wholly unconstitutional". Which implies that the action was totally out of proportion to the provocation. Mr Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee, as the political curator of Nandigram, as the Chief Minister and the Home (Police) Minister must acknowledge his own direct culpability. At the very least, and as had been suggested in these columns eight months ago, he must resign from the position of the Police minister. That the government plans to go in appeal is neither here nor there; the Court has not stayed the operation of its order and unless the Supreme Court sets it aside, the indictment stands. Politically, the Marxists often claim the high moral ground; if Mr Bhattacharjee remains head of the police establishment, his party will lose the right to ever criticise a Narendra Modi or Bal Thackeray. The court has rubbished the claim of sovereign immunity in defence of the action. The message must be resonant enough: for exactly eight months was the state trying to defend the indefensible. The indictment and the defeat is legal as well as administrative. The armed offensive against peasants, intent on protecting their source of livelihood, was carried out with a calculated ruthlessness that was seemingly more brutal than the firing on refugees in Marichjhanpi (1978), against the Gorkhaland agitators (1986) and against Mamata Banerjee's rally at Esplanade (1993). It bears recall too that the nature of the bullet injuries ~ on the backs of victims ~ was completely inhuman. The government has been put on notice, and there may yet be more worms crawling out of the Nandigram can as the CBI has been directed to continue the probe. The compensation for the rape victims confirms reports that the party and government had tried to reject. Thoroughly contemptuous and deserving of censure has been Binoy Konar's reaction: "Does the court expect the police to contain rowdies by spraying Gangajal and reading out the Gita?" Such vacuity is of a piece with the rusgolla-mudki analogy of Biman Bose, who now carps at the judiciary for delayed development. Mr Bose is already before the Supreme Court appealing an earlier judgment of the High Court holding him guilty of contempt. That the matter has not been taken up for consideration ought not to be construed as licence to shoot his mouth off. Lauding heroes National veterans' policy needed There is every reason to appreciate the Uttarakhand government's substantially increasing the monetary benefits extended to winners of national gallantry awards. The cynics might attribute that to the chief minister himself being a former military officer, as well as the fact that the region does send plenty of its men to the forces so there are many "army families" on the electoral rolls. That, however, would be unkind to Maj-Gen BC Khanduri (retd.). Even when he was an "ordinary" MP he had championed the cause of the old soldier (of course not all gallantry awardees have completed their military service), including World War II veterans who had been ignored by the political community because it was ~ as Pranab Mukherjee once asserted ~ "not our war". The recently announced increases, in some cases as much as 25 times, would probably be among the highest in the country. So there is genuine cause for festivity in Lansdowne, Dehra Dun and Ranikhet, the "homes" of the Garhwal Rifles, 11 Gorkhas and Kumaon Regiment respectively. Not to mention several other military establishments in the state. A larger question does, alas, cause more than a pinprick. Must the benefits for war heroes and ex-servicemen, or veterans which is now the preferred term, vary so much? It would have been acceptable if there was a "high" bottom line, but that is not the case. While traditionally "martial" states like Punjab, Haryana and Rajasthan are fairly generous, others are miserly. Yet the soldier serves the nation, and sympathy is due to those who get a poor deal because they live in the wrong state. The disparity in monetary benefits is also reflected in other welfare support, indeed even respect for the uniform. Since indifferent treatment of serving soldiers/veterans has been identified as one reason for declining morale and poor quality "material" turning up at the recruiting office, it is necessary to undertake a comprehensive revamp of the way the Centre and the states share the responsibility (or lack of it) of backing up soldiers and veterans. A fresh national veterans' policy needs to be evolved, and implemented. The Uttarakhand bonanza must not cause heartburn elsewhere. An adult failure Rising crime against children The grot and glitz of Incredible India appeared to be all too stark on 14 November, Children's Day. The report of the National Human Rights Commission, ironically released on that day, grimly points to an adult failure to protect the child. The reality is chilling at the mildest estimation, and makes a mockery of the platitudes that are associated with the occasion. There has been a 4 per cent increase in crimes against children, and this violation of child rights is now a countrywide scourge. And the rising graph points to a shocking 14 per cent increase in child rape and a 10 per cent rise in kidnapping. Equally forbidding is the challenge of missing children, and the search usually leads nowhere or is a half-hearted effort at crime detection. The adults at the helm of civil society remain remarkably insensitive to the problem in a country where 44,000 children are reported missing every year. Of whom an estimated 11,000 remain untraced. So it is that as West Bengal flounders in the face of adult fiascoes and foibles, there has been no attempt to trace the six children who have been missing from Howrah's squalid Pilkhana area for the past six months. There has been no effort either to track down the culprits. The police have been bungling in the absence of clues. To claim that a drug cartel, involved in the buying and selling of children, is responsible is no comfort to the parents grappling with the tragedy. This is no more than a diagnosis of the malaise with little or no attempt to get to the root. Not that the state government alone is indifferent; even the Centre's information and broadcasting minister, on a recent visit to Howrah, seemed wholly disinterested in the matter. The news is much too shameful to be aired in the drawing rooms.http://www.thestatesman.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=210104:Edits&catid=38:editorial&from_page=search

What Justices Sachar and Misra knew, but ignored
**
Ghosh's new novel - The Hungry Tide - has a sharp, "modern" opening. One of the two "outsiders" on the Dhakuria commuter platform, Kanai Dutt, media executive with "the true connoisseur's ability to both praise and appraise women" and only intermittently single, is somewhat reluctantly on his way to see his aunt Nilima, who lives somewhere in the middle of the Sunderbans. He notices the other "outsider", Piya, the once-Bengali researcher, she of the "neatly composed androgyny", who is on her way to the Sunderbans in order to pursue her research into the habits and habitats of the river dolphin, the Orcaella.

The threat of this opening is, mercifully, soon belied - the two take off in their separate directions, and while we get a curiously staccato narration - cut to one, cut to the other - of what they do, and inevitably, of the pasts that play through their present doings, they do not actually meet again until the middle of the book. By which time, of course, our readerly plate is piled high with themes and resonances and the threat of casual romance looms small indeed.
It is a pleasure to see Ghosh getting into the spacious narrative style that is his forte. It enables him to deploy his gift for leisurely, thoughtful exposition. Once in a while, I must confess, the narrative device of having one character say to another - "since you asked, let me tell you" - did seem a little overused, but on the whole, it seemed an acceptable concession to the narrative pretext that enables Ghosh to get so many different themes and people to inhabit the same mind-space.
Perhaps the most important of these is worked, ironically, through the figure of a character who has died several years before the novel opens - Nilima's husband, Nirmal. It is the discovery of his papers - sealed, to be delivered to his nephew Kanai - which is the immediate cause for Kanai to be making this visit at all.
Nirmal's notebook, spliced in bite-sized instalments in between the alternate glimpses of Kanai's and Piya's separate but converging trajectories, is being written against an embattled and encroaching present in which it will be too late for words anyway, on the eve of the Marichjhapi massacre; it concerns people and themes that are not only there in the present of the narration, in which Kanai reads it, but haemorrhage also, as in the "argument" between utopias and liberalism, or that between human needs and environmental concerns, into the present in which we are reading the work.
In writing about "the tide country", Ghosh seems to have found the perfect landscape, one that "says" almost everything that he has been writing about for so long and with such eloquence. Thus, a translated fragment from Nirmal's Bangla notebook-letter reads:
"... interposed between the sea and the plains of Bengal, lies an immense archipelago of islands ... the trailing threads of India's fabric, the ragged fringe of her sari, the anchal that follows her, half-wetted by the sea. ... The rivers' channels are spread cross the land like a fine-mesh net, creating a terrain where the boundaries between land and water are always mutating, always unpredictable. Some of these channels are mighty waterways, others are no more than two or three kilometres long and only a few hundred metres across. Yet, each of these channels is a 'river' in its own right, each possessed of its own strangely evocative name.... There are no borders here to divide fresh water from salt, river from sea. ..
The currents are so powerful as to reshape the islands almost daily - some days the water tears away entire promontories and peninsulas; at other times it throws up new shelves and sandbanks where there were none before...."
Dreams come easy in this magic land. And part of what is at play in Nirmal's notebook is the contrast between the original utopian impulse that prompted the initial "colonial" settlements of the Sunderbans by Daniel Hamilton in the 1920s, and the subaltern-utopian motivation that underlay the appropriation of Marichjhapi island by doubly displaced Bangladeshis in 1979. Hamilton's is a sort of "Nehruvian" ambition, to make a place where people would shed their atavistic baggage of custom and prejudice and avail of the blessings of modernity.
Nature and bureaucracy - also a kind of Nature? - grind that into the mud, because of course there is little dust in the Sunderbans. Marichjhapi island was settled, briefly, by desperate refugees from the resettlement colony of Dandakaranya. The heroic and ineluctable community of these doubly-distressed Dalits was of little avail against the guns of the "leftist" government of Kolkata, deployed in defence of the "environment" but also, it is strongly implied, against subaltern presumption. Dreams are soon dead, too - in this nightmare land. Nirmal's quondam-leftist yearning for heroic, revolutionary transformation is contrasted with Nilima's modest "liberal" ambition to "make a few little things a little better in one small place... after all these years, it has amounted to something: it's helped people; it's made a few people's lives a little better. But that was never enough for Nirmal..."
The abstract contrast between utopia and liberalism is enacted, naturally, at the level of the their fraught domestic lives. Similarly, the tension between the ecological-environmental position as against the needs of the human beings who must, just as naturally, seek to survive in that hostile environment is dramatised in the wordless and doomed passion of Piya and her illiterate boatman Fokir.
Piya's final return to Nilima's hospital and to Lusibari with another research grant to study her beloved river-dolphins does not - indeed, cannot - represent a resolution of the fundamental existential and ideological tensions that the novel embodies. It merely signifies her mature recognition of the smudged provisionality in which we must live. Meanwhile.
It is interesting to ask whether and in what ways Ghosh addresses (or eludes) the problems of audience and register that are an inescapable part of writing the Indian English novel. Thus, the question of "audience" is central to the kind of "explanation " that is deemed necessary by the writer. One wonders, for instance, what is the function of the italicised "native" items - chhata, sarkar? To the Indian reader, these will appear merely gratuitous, exotic spice inserted to reassure Western readers that what they are encountering is a safe blend of the familiar and the unfamiliar. I am not sure that there is any really satisfactory solution to the problem, other than the "arrogant" self-confidence of the American writer, who eschews all explanation.He addresses a sufficient audience at home, and people who find American realities unfamiliar can walk that extra mile.I wonder if this cultural process is in turn affected by the larger econo-military enterprise whereby American "realities" are themselves, mutatis mutandi and even as we speak, being converted into the facts of globalized life.
The problem of register is, if anything, even trickier. Although Ghosh endows his protagonist Kanai with a particular talent for languages, none of this interest - neither his, nor Ghosh's - is in evidence in the language of The Hungry Tide. After all, English is spoken in a great variety of ways in India, and at least some of these have become culturally framed as absurd and parodic, even though they may not be intended as such by the language users themselves. Thus, the timid rural lad who struggles to express himself in broken English doesn't intend to be comic. He might even, from another perspective, be perceived as the embodiment of a colossal human tragedy, but the writer will have to struggle against the conventional undertow towards caricature.
Then again, there is a whole range of people - millions, hundreds of millions - who use no English at all. Their adequate lives are lived in a bewildering variety of languages and dialects that have - and perhaps can have - no equivalent English registers, except the "Indian English" caricature. The main characters in Ghosh's novel are all English-educated, and can use the language fluently and transparently. All except Fokir, who is tongue-tied and uses the wordless language of sign and gesture. However, the solution of making all one's major characters fluent in English, and reducing minor characters to degrees of silence, is really no solution at all.
Ghosh bypasses this problem altogether by resorting, uniformly, to a neutral, level register of sophistication and nuance that is maintained through the range of characters and through the diverse situations in which they find themselves. Thus, even as Kanai is practically drowning in the slime of the Sunderbans, his thoughts are meticulously grammatical, inflected with relative clauses and poised parentheses. This,. too, is a kind of convention, I suppose. And I am sufficiently fond of Ghosh's authorial voice to not mind the fact that it resonates, Godlike, throughout his fictional universe.
