It seems Indian politics has entered into a most dangerous phase, where the national and political mainstreams are eagerly rushing to support anti-national and terrorists on campuses. As if that in not enough, they are teasing patriots, who are seething to see such shamelessly open demonstrations of treason, calling them fascist and enemies of free speech and expression.

2. The JNU debate has outraged the patriotic people of India. They are
shocked to see slogans supporting freedom of Kashmir and terrorists
who wage jihad against sovereign India.

3. The Left sees such patriotic outrage and State action as
violative of its Constitutional right, i.e. freedom of speech.
Since the hanging of Afzal Guru, the 9th of February has
become for JNUites, left and anti-national, a day to
commemorate his martyrdom, and similar functions have
been organized at the JNU campus to show solidarity year
after year.
For the first time this was shown on national news
channels, and was ensued by police action in accordance
with law.

The sloganeering that supported the cause of “Azadi” was
definitely not in accordance with the freedom of speech
and expression as guaranteed by the Constitution of India,
under Article 19 (a).
5. Such freedoms of speech and expression does not protect
anything which challenges the sovereignty and integrity of
the nation, and propagates and supports secessionist jihad.
The expressions, speeches, and sloganeering seen at JNU
were against the sovereignty and integrity of India and
definitely against the public order, as they were supporting
a condemned convict who was found guilty after due trial
and after all legally available remedies were exhausted.

JNU : A Ground to Aid Terror-Jihad
No one can ever say that the so-called Kashmiri freedom
struggle is peaceful or innocent. We all know it for sure,
that the freedom of Kashmir has primarily served as a cause
to the Taliban, to Al-Qaida and to ISIS. It is a demonic war
waged against India. Terror-jihadists want to free Kashmir
from of the “clutches” of “Hindu” India.

The Leftists on the campus of JNU are providing
intellectual and ideological aid to this Kashmiri terror-
jihad. As we all know, the ISIS flag is unfurled time and
again on the land of Kashmir. Seen against this
background, the slogan-shouting does not seem to be an
innocent freedom of expression but rather constitutes
support for a bloody and violent cause.
Could the State have remained a mute spectator to this
activity, which is not only seditious but amounts to raising
a rebellion to aid and abet treason, as it is an attempt to
create public opinion in favor of secessionist and terror-
jihadist agenda glorifying armed attacks on democracy’s
highest institutions?

Patriotism as defined by the Communists
One can still give a benefit of doubt to the young students
who are in their formative years and can be misled by any
right or wrong revolutionary cause, but one cannot see the
justification for senior-most leaders of the CPI and CPI (M)
expressing their solidarity with this cause.
Very slyly, solidarity is being shown to the cause of freedom
of expression.
But if one sees it in the light of real facts, then it is
abundantly clear that the leaders were expressing their
solidarity with the secessionist cause of the worldwide
terror-jihad.

Though Communists justify that ideological struggle is of utmost
importance against all dogmatic and sectarian traits, and denounce
extremism as an expression of the petty prejudices and the lumpen
elements in society, they see the democratically elected Modi
government as “fascist”.
So naturally, they find themselves at liberty to invoke the doctrines
they formulated during the Sino-India war of 1962.
Under that doctrine, some of them wanted to help the enemy bring
down the “bourgeois” democracy so that the red flag of Communists
could fly high on the Indian skies.

However, this only resulted in the break-up of the
party.
With this DNA in place, they are the only ones within
the Indian political space who can find justification for
adopting any means to find support, if they are taking
on a “bourgeois” “fascist” government, and can take
shelter in internationalism.
According to them the “bourgeois” BJP is excessively
communal and fascist in its outlook.

New Congress under Rahul inclined to secessionist
ideologies and glorification of terrorists
Rahul Gandhi and his Congress Party are now openly
showing solidarity with the cause of Afzal Guru and the
freedom of Kashmir.
It has reached an extent where one of the former Home and
Finance minister is openly expressing doubts about Afzal
Guru’s role in the attack on the Parliament, although, while
in power, they have deliberated upon that question for a
long time before rejecting Guru’s mercy plea.
In another similar development, Farooq Abdullah, who has
been Minister in the same cabinet, suddenly says that the
Kashmir issue should be resolved along the lines of
the solution worked out for Ireland.

My (Shridev Sharma) personal opinion is that Rahul Gandhi and Arundahti
Roy have similar views on almost every cause.
One can refer to Arundahti Roy’s books and articles, and compare
them with the speeches and statements of Rahul Gandhi to find the
common thread.
To me (Shridev Sharma), he has transformed Congress thinking to the
radical doctrine of the Left.
It is no more a “Congress” view but it is the rise and making of a new
Congress party which represents the views of not objecting to
secessionist chants, challenging the sovereignty and territorial integrity
of India, and slowly preparing the Congress Party of his time to accept
secessionist ideas in the name if neo-liberal internationalism over
national unity.
Such a Congress Party can support a cause of students who were
wanting to divide India into pieces, free Kashmir and thump the back
of Afzul Guru for his act of attacking the Parliament.

Of course, Rahul Gandhi must be too eager to take on the
system, as he appears antagonized by the judicial system
after his own trial is ordered by a Delhi Court, and the High
Court and Supreme Court have declined quashing of the
criminal proceedings, upholding the jurisdiction exercised
by the trial court.
It seems Indian politics has entered into a most dangerous
phase, where the national and political mainstreams are
eagerly rushing to support anti-national and terrorists on
campuses.
As if that in not enough, they are teasing patriots, who are
seething to see such shamelessly open demonstrations of
treason, calling them fascist and enemies of free speech
and expression.
