RED is the colour of the day…no its nothing that is pleasurable or even remotely enjoyable rather its terrifyingly repulsive. Yes I am talking about the Naxalites, the Maoists Communist Centre (MCC) and their likes. They are getting increasingly unmanageable and untameable.
India is increasingly becoming volatile, in just the Pakistan way and am really really sad to say that. The recent capture of Lalgarh and then the following Paramilitary action to take the town back is reminiscent of the Swat incident in Pakistan. The immense bloodshed that the naxals are committing is ghastly yes, but also something that is diminishing the faith of people in the government and that is what’s the most dangerous thing. Its not that the people are losing faith in one particular party thats in power, the thing that is disturbing is that the masses are losing faith in the system of government that we have, in the police. They have already started feeling that no government can keep them safe from these bloodthirsty vampires, moreover the continuous attacks on the Police is worsening the situation.
The naxals are calling for 2-day long strikes in the whole of Jharkhand from tomorrow and the government is already gone into the damage control mode…disheartening, very disheartening. If the government itself is scared, where will the common people go? If the protectors are the ones whos are terrified, where will we go?? The worst thing is that the political parties are going all guns against the president’s rule in the state, stating that all these attacks are a result of the mis-rule of Syed Sibte Razi, the governor of Jharkhand. yes, I agree that the crime rates have flown up very high durin his tenure as the chief of the statem but I have a suspicion that the politicans are one of the people who are behind all this. With more and more evdiences of the politcians’ link with the Naxals coming into light, its getting even darker.
Why can’t we live as free people anymore i just can’t understand…no I just can’t. I hate it!
Solutions : Who am I to suggest any but still I do have some things to share…
Well for starters…the age old mantra of sincerity. If the people start doing what they are required to do with all their heart, the people’s displeasure with the rulers will lessen and so will the chances of theirs joining the terror outfits like the MCC and all. I know that this isn’t a case of ignorance but sheer displeasure and then some brain washing that leads people in to such an abyss a many engineers and well trained professionals are the ones who form the main force of the MCC. If everything is done sincerely, well no displeasure will be there for such brain-washers to feast on…and hence the situation can be much easier .Just read this for the amount of brainwash that’s there.
I no it seems very Utopian for this to happen in an immensely corrupt country that we are…but still I guess this is the only way…no military action or appeasement of the naxals or talks are going to help if the root cause isn’t removed..nope none. I hope the next generation of the administrators, officers and even the workers is less corrupt than the present one so that we can achieve some peace..which is absoolutely required if we are to have some development here..or else..even I dont want to think of the future.
Just now, feeling so very hot (due to the weather) and so very uneasy I went up to terrace of my hostel to find some relief in the cool night air. Relief, yes I did get some, but along with the coolness of the breeze and the darkness of the sky came suddenly rushing a tumult of gushing difficult questions. Many what-ifs, many whys, many why nots, many whats and many what nots, and when I enquired myself about the answers, well I knew none.
