Gujarat Riots: The True Story

The Truth of the 2002 riots

Myth 5: Gujarat police was anti-Muslim

Posted on May 22, 2008 - Filed Under 12-Concocted Lies and Myths by the media |

Fact: Far from it, the police was slow to act on Muslim fanatics for fear of being called ‘anti-Muslim’ by the media. As many as 170 people were shot dead by the police in Gujarat- i.e. killed in police firing. Muslims greeted the police, and also the army, with bullets and turned off the power supply and made life hell, and also started riots and accused the police of being biased, when the police came to search for armories in Muslim areas. For fear of being labeled anti-Muslim, the police failed to do their duty.

India Today weekly in its issue dated 20 May 2002, clearly admits that, far from being anti-Muslim, the Gujarat police did not act speedily against Muslim fanatics and rioters, for fear of being called anti-Muslim by the biased and partisan media.

The India Today weekly report dated 20 May 2002 says-”A series of attacks on policemen by Muslims has further added to the lack of faith. Now, strapped with the anti-Muslim label, the police has been slow in acting against Muslim fanatics”.

This will contain the above sentence in the 6th paragraph from the top.
The Gujarat Police saved at least 24,000 Muslims from certain death in the first three days-in places like Sanjeli, Bodeli, and Viramgam in particular.

See passages 2,3 and 4 from the top.

Gujarat police shot dead 98 people in the first 3 days-majority of whom are Hindus. The Police arrested most of the accused for rioting. Also The Times of India in a report titled “More fall prey to police firings in Gujarat” dated 28 April 2002 says that a total of 35,552 people were arrested for rioting in Gujarat- out of whom 27,901 were Hindus.

Moreover, the prosecution of the police was so efficient that until now, at least 95 people for rioting in Gujarat-out of whom at least 61 are Hindus.

    India was divided in 1947 when some people go to India, Pakistan refused to assume their country. These people regarded India as their homeland and did not trust the words of the Muslim League. These people chose to live in India had its own will. Ganga of them here - much liked composite culture than sixty years have passed. This has got to love the reward of this nation that today India’s backward society into a Muslim country and has become the victim. With Muslim youth unemployment - are also facing with disdain. Muslims should vote for the country’s political parties, but to solve their problems when it comes Azkah accepted by the silence. Which is why the government step approach because of the state of Muslims today is getting from bad to worse.

    Freedom during the war it was decided that a representative of India’s Democracy and the Welfare State will be free. According to India’s social structure was the most appropriate arrangement. Gandhi, Nehru and many leaders thought that the British government after independence from Hukazwmat poor people will work for development. Governance systems around the world all the best because democracy has been considered, because under the system of governance and community rights in every class and their lives have equal stake. With minorities - with the poor and backward sections of government stake in the democracy a system different from other makes. Which is why the framers of the Constitution of India was the consensus that free democratic India will form the government, including small - equal share of all classes will be larger. Today we face the end of the credibility of democracy in India has come under threat. Democratic system for many people the illusion that it is based on the majority. When grown in Europe of democracy, as democracy was different then. Azkah the majority principle was key to democracy. But the world situation was changing. Capitalism and liberal democracy in the name of the majority of the storm is gone autocratic government. Poor farmers and workers moved away from power. It was against the spread of Marxist ideology. The result was changing the face of democracy in Europe. Lajefeer changed character of State, Welfare State was established, in which minorities also get preference system was implemented. Framers of the Constitution of India, poor farmers and laborers for the development of democracy and the welfare state established. Witness the fact that the condition of Muslims of Indian democracy and the welfare state has been turned on its agenda. Because of the framers of the Constitution was adopted, India has failed in it.

    The truth about the poor Muslims, he horrors have heart. The 94.9 per cent below poverty line in rural areas Muslims are not getting free food. Only 3.2 per cent Muslims Sbsidhaijd advantage of getting loans. Ssiarf 2.1 per cent rural Muslims have tractors and Ssiarf handpumps facility near 1 percent. Education situation is worse. 60 per cent 54.6 Muslims in villages and cities were ever in school. West Bengal’s Muslims number more than 25 per cent, but they Ssiarf 4.2 per cent in government jobs. It is the Left government, state government has zero number of Muslims who work in companies. Army, police and paramilitary forces have very few Muslims. Helplessness of Muslims in prisons get the data. Surprising that the number of Muslims in prison is expensive. Muslims 10.6 per cent in Maharashtra, but 32.4 per cent the number of Muslims in prisons here. In Delhi, 11.7 per cent are Muslim, but 27.9 per cent of prisoners are Muslim in prison.

    Research is a result of all the Muslims. Unfortunately it only say that in any department of government is not in proportion to population share of Muslims. The number of Muslims in civil services are pathetic. 3.22 per cent in the country Ssiarf IAS, IPS and 3.14 per cent 2.64 per cent are Muslim IFS. Even more startling is that the population of Sikhs and Christians than Muslims, but both of these services exceeds the number of Muslims. Similar is the condition of the country’s government departments. Tjodisire Ssiarf 6 per cent share of the Muslims. So far as the point at stake in politics reveals the startling facts. Sixty years after independence Ssiarf seven states so far have failed to become a Muslim chief minister. It is surprising that the J - K Abdullah Afarukh than a single Muslim country could not become chief minister, who could have ruled for five years. Muslims are marginalized in politics, witness the current number of MPs in the Lok Sabha Muslim. Currently 543 seats in the Lok Sabha MP Ssiarf 29 are Muslim. With social backwardness - with democracy is marginalized Muslims in different columns.

    The nation’s largest community Alpsankhzik backward, uneducated, poor and remain poor if he can not ever develop. Government of any party, if he wants to develop India so poor and backward community development section of each connecting becomes his responsibility. Muslim society is the biggest curse of illiteracy. Surprising that despite these years of independence Muslim leaders and government do not realize the curse. Religious schools is a matter of improving the Hindu and Muslim fundamentalist organizations oppose it together. Secular and Progressive parties who are going to be called, it seems that as long as they remain uneducated Muslims, until they can be used like Voobanka. Now Ssiarf over this unhappiness may be expressed even after 60 years of independence our government could not reach the conclusion that Muslims how illiteracy may be removed and how religious schools should be improved. Now wait for the next 60 years, which will be spent and where in the world where the debate in India as we do on this subject will be.

    Privatization, globalization and economic liberalism on the country’s poor Muslims is the worst affected. Past two decades, India is in the grip of neo-liberalism’s economic policy. It had the most negative impact on Muslims, especially weavers, artisans, craftsmen and embroidery - painting, etc. The economic policy because of people who have come on the margins. They are unemployed. The result is that their children away from school because of poverty are gone. Now with the privatization of education poor minority school will be denied. On one side is the government cut public jobs. Educated in the country’s economic system and changing its policies - the more money people leave government jobs and private jobs’re headed for success. So to understand is that 10 years after the Muslims if the reservation is also giving the minority will remain backward and the country will take another class.

    Whenever we talk about Muslims, they assume a pan Indian society. It is not true and it is dangerous. India’s Muslim community is not homogeneous like any other religion. Muslim society like others economic, social, linguistic, ethnic, regional and caste-based is divided. As India’s Hindu society, it is the Muslim community. Poor and backward people of other religions the way to get the advantage of government schemes, he should also benefit Muslims. Indian Muslims is worse than the status of scheduled castes and tribes. Asazaf that hit both because of poverty, but the present government for help and support of Muslims have been left to their fate. Now those who run the country and Muslim community leaders before the poor among the questions that why the name of religion is being discriminated against.

    At the core of the backwardness of Muslims have contributed to Muslim leaders. The problem is that socio - economic development issues such as cultural rather than religious and emotional issues most Muslim leaders put forward. Whenever we talk about the situation of Muslims the issue of Muslim Personal Law, Aligarh Muslim University came over the character and the tongue is Urdu. Muslim leaders among the social and economic development is debatable. Right from the start of Muslims are more concerned about security, but it needs to change. This right will need to understand that the security will be Bakud themselves. Unless Muslims unemployed, poor, and will share power off, then no government, no party and no politician can not give them protection. Hence the power play Azkahqui demand, or will be late.

    As the secular parties, they all talk of reservation for Muslims in their manifesto and the government made repeated her is put on hold. Fourth World Azakbar When two years are languishing in the cupboard of Parliament Ranganath Mishra Commission report published in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha unleashed chaos. But the government did not offer it yet. Then challenged the editor saying that the RS impotent by Santosh Indian people has become the fourth club world editor Privelej the notice was issued. Then when Mulayam Singh in the Lok Sabha proceedings and raised voice nor threatened to run, the Government of the Ranganath Mishra Commission report tabled in Parliament. Ssiarf submitted, no action. Report of implementation is not yet a Ssugbugaho. This is the same government, headed by Manmohan Singh said it was a few years ago on the resources of the country’s minority more rights. What kind of government compulsion that he is intent on Aadazfaramoshi. What do Muslims believe. Why is it assumed that any ideology, whether they be political parties, the Muslims for the development of things, but does not adhere.

    The Government says that reservations to Muslims need consensus in Parliament. So what the government provides whatever bill passes, it is cross-party consensus? India - U.S. nuclear deal was the agreement of all parties? What about Women’s Reservation Bill is agreement across party lines? Yet the Government took steps, the bill introduced. But the point of development is poor and backward Muslims take every government is finding excuses. Connected to the fact that Muslims think when it comes to emotional agitation in the country is blatant. That’s good. But when these Muslims employment, education and growth comes not know why, people are snakes smell. Take the case of Babri Masjid to the point of martyrdom. All the secular parties were one of the country. Hindu or Muslim, the society’s director came to the streets. Countrywide agitation against the BJP and the RSS has begun, but the same people on the Sachar Committee and Ranganath Mishra Commission report has sat silent tax.

    Before the country is a serious danger. Democracy is in danger, but the sense of threat is neither the government nor the political parties. Inequalities across society, rather than identifying and taking steps to run the country who are silent or avoid the issue has been decided. The risk is due to backwardness of Muslims, their unemployment and illiteracy. Muslim’s condition is getting worse year after year. Aside from parties like the RSS and the BJP on the other hand they risk group, which used to understand the Voobanka Muslims, but instead of solving their everyday problems of dilatory game play. An agreement on the U.S. and Europe to militant Muslim governments are engaged in economic policy and inflation on the other hand the Muslims to put the freshly broken. A commission report on the Sachar Committee and Ranganath, who as a ray of hope for Muslims get the shelving on the other hand the government reports. Muslims from every side is facing damage. The damage is not Ssiarf Muslims, the country’s democratic system is based and challenging ideas. The challenge of democracy in India, holds the power to eliminate credit. Obvious that the rights of minorities in the system, their share in power and development are not sure, he has betrayed the name of democracy. The truth is that Muslims today Ssiarf not, our democracy is in danger.

    @Aameer Kale
    If no religion teaches violence- then Islam is no religion at all. As a matter of fact- even Hinduism tells to fight in self-defence in the Bhagavad Geeta- even if violence is needed. If you think Islam does not teach TERRORISM then tell me the meaning of Chapter 3 Verse 151, Chapter 8 Verse 12, Chapter 8 Verse 60 in the Quran. And also Chapter 9 Verse 5, Chapter 9 Verse 29, Chapter 8 Verse 39 etc etc. Open and read them- and explain to me what it really means- if I am wrong.

    no religion teaches violence its depend on particular human how take the suitation ….telling anyting on any religion just show how bad human being we are . we must not forget that we are human being first and i also belive that no religion in the world teaches war riots or likewise .this thing happen due to miscommunication and lack of knowlege .point finger on any person is not fair before that we must check ourselves how good we are ….riots which happened in gujarat is due some people how knew that reigious matter in india are very senisitive and can agian many policital profits .just like to say reigion is personal matter of every human being anywhere in ther world and we should just keep it personal.

  4. aameer kale on June 5th, 2010 2:59 pm

    if you think islam teaches terrorism then you are wrong my all frnds as we all are of one community and we share one world so we should try to not be biased for any religion so my dear frnds i first look at the mirror and then talk about others bcoz for a country like india to develop it is necessary not to get in all this stuff think only about the development of our country and that can happen only when you unite the people nd by dividing the people on any basis either it may be on the basis of religion or mumbai bahiya bhago kand like thing so we are first humans then hindu or muslim .

    to all
    see god in all human beings and be god fir all human beings.

    Now that the truth is coming out, and that MODIJI is not to blame for all this, how can we go after all these news papers that work for the Congress Party to spread misinformation and lies about MODI…..

    Once SIT is over and MODIJI is found to be clean, he should higher a whole list of Lawyers to sue every news paper that has written wrong stories without actual proven facts. He can take the money he receives and use it to either help the poor or bring more development…

    this way the news papers will be more careful next time…

    @farhana-

    Islam is nothing but a devil’s creation !!
    Islam says that where you find idolators cut them, sieze them,besige them, ambush them ….Convert them or kill them !! (Quran Chapter 9 Verse 5)

    HA HA !! still you say that Islam is religion of peace !!

    HA HA !!Stop lieing and supporting Islam’s terrorism !!

    And abt virappan , ULFA and all (whom you called as hindu terrorism ) ………Let me tell you one thing that they chose to become a terrorist ……..This dosen’t mean Like Islam Hindutva Has taught them to do so !!

    But on the contrary Islam teaches it’s followers to follow the path of terrorism and strike terror in the hearts of the people !! (Quran Chapter 8 Verse 12, Chapter 3 Verse 151) Islam has increased it’s followers just by putting swords on non-islamic people !!

    And you people by converting Hindus or killing if they don’t convert divide India !! It were you who torched KARSEWAKS !! It were you who created Amarnath issue !! I am no longer one of you. The Allah I used to pray to- is nothing but a figment of imagination of Muhammad. The man who opned my eyes-

    I think majority Muslims in Gujarat are more loyal to India and particularly Gujarati Muslims have better life. But there are pockets of hidden Pakistani Muslims who still trying to destabilize prosperous Gujarat. I am not in favor of any riots, but do not think Godhra first train incidence was an accident.

    Look at the history of Somanath and Mohammad Ghori, Taiyamoor Lang, Mogul empire and massacre of Hindu_Kush mountains. May be Godhra event will look negligible. By the way Godhra does not have a pleasant history either. During 1948 riots, Sardar Patel had to burn down part of Godhra to flush out fanatic Muslims.
    May be the current Congress party would have put him in jail!!

  10. Ramesh AUSTRALIA on March 27th, 2010 4:18 am

    I agree there are bad people among Hindus as well- (Such as all non-BJP politicians, and people like Deepak here) but Hindu books dont teach them to murder Muslims and convert or kill- nor do they threaten them with Fire of Hell after Death- unlike Islam- whcih is full of violent teachings.
