Hi, Everyone! I have now reached the point of
putting before you the most sensitive, and probably the most
unacceptable-to-all and difficult-to-believe, facts of the Freedom Movement of
India.
In the next series of posts I shall outline—always
with documentation—how the Congress, Gandhi, and Jawaharlal Nehru planted the
seed of Pakistan, nurtured the plant tenderly, and then plucked the fruit.
There is a truckload of documentation, beginning as early as 1938.
They did this in two ways:
·
actively, by
promoting the Pakistan scheme; and
·
passively, by
taking several wrong political decisions in their quest for total power in free
India.
Indians (and indeed the accepted version of Indian
history) do so love to put the responsibility of Partition on the shoulders of
Jinnah or the British. They make very
good and obvious scapegoats.
They are certainly not without responsibility in
partitioning India. But one must keep in mind that:
·
The British were
serving the British Raj. When they schemed to keep power, they were working for
their country.
And they did try to preserve the unity of India in
the latter years.
·
Jinnah was not
claiming India as his Motherland. When he fought for partition—horrendous,
inhuman, barbarous depths though he sank to—he was fighting for his country. He
was loyal to his Pakistan.
·
The Congress, on
the other hand, claimed to be Indian nationalists. Their actions in promoting
Pakistan can only be considered as treachery to India and Indians.
The Congress High Command was so busy scheming to
get control and power in free India, they didn’t care what cost India and
Indians would have to pay.
·
Having come to
power they have orchestrated one of the most successful cover-ups in world history.
But I shall remind you of Abraham Lincoln’s words:
“History is not
history unless it is the truth.”
And so I seek to set the record straight.
My maxim in life is:
If
someone was not ashamed to do the deed, I shall not be ashamed to talk about
it.
I do want to make one point very clear. Making a
demand for Pakistan is one thing—anyone can demand anything—to actively promote
the Pakistan scheme, give the demand body and shape in the politics of India,
especially while screaming for Hindu-Muslim unity, is quite another.
Note also:
·
Jinnah demanded
Pakistan, vociferously and propounded many agendas too.
But in actual fact, he always managed to side step
taking any decision re it, even when Pakistan was being handed on a
platter—until the very end.
Burying heads in the sand is an easy thing to do; it
is so much more comfortable than
facing the stark, horrendous reality.
But those of you who are willing to face reality,
hang on to your seats and follow my posts from tomorrow.
