Jayalalita Speaks Up for Hindus

[Guest guest]

Here is a remarkable statement from Jayalalitha. This strengthens the point

>made by Gurumurthy ji about the Hindu Dharma understood clearly by

>Mayawati.

>I suggest that there should be a serious attempt made to convert BJP into a

>federating national party TOTALLY affiliating with regional groups such as

>BSP and AIADMK and build up the base for Dharma.

>Ganapa Vijai's comment in regard to USA, is worthy of emulation by every

>city and town of Bha_rata. The s'a_kha can be strengthened with family

>participation because in the urban setting, both parents are likely to be

>employed and will have little time to spend with their children; ths

>s'a_kha should provide a place for the families to get together as a

>community. Since these families are likely to be the readers of the English

>press, there is a good change that they can be disabused of the propaganda

>that goes on in the pseudo-secular English press. Vijai says, "Here in USA

>we have a family based shaka system where all participate and contibute,

>this has become a tremondus success as more an more families are

>approcahing us to open new shakas or balagokulam centres."

>Dhanyavaad. Kalyanaraman

>AIADMK general secretary and Chief Minister-Designate of Tamil

>Nadu J. Jayalalithaa used the Gujarat train massacre to lambast all major

>political parties in the country for their "anti-majority and pro-minority

>approach.

>

>"It is very strange and saddening to see that when such acts are

>perpetrated against the minority people in the country, all political party

>leaders rush to condemn them. But when the

>majority people are subjected to similar perpetration of heinous crime, not

>a single political leader has so far issued a statement condemning this

>barbaric crime," Jayalalithaa said.

>

>In a strongly-worded statement, she condemned the gruesome

>killing of 58 people travelling in a train on Wednesday in

>Gujarat. Jayalalithaa described the incident as "barbaric act

>perpetrated against the majority at a time when our country is

>engaged in containing terrorism and tension along the border is most

>condemnable."

>

>Lashing out at all political leaders for not condemning the

>incident immediately, Jayalalithaa advised that such acts of

>senseless violence must be condemned, no matter who was

>responsible and no matter who the victims were.

>

>"It is not as though a crime is a crime only if it is committed against the

>minority community people and not so if it is committed against the

>majority community," she said. Describing the Gujarat killings as a crime

>committed against humanity, Jayalalithaa said the horror of what had

>happened in Gujarat "should compel all those who believe in fairness,

>justice and equity, to condemn this ghastly and senseless violence in the

>strongest manner."

>

>Jayalalithaa in fact went on to remind political leaders that it was not

>only the minorities who enjoy "all sorts of rights" under the Constitution,

>but the majority too have their rights to live in this country.

>

>Conveying her deepest sympathies and condolences to the families of the

>dead, Jayalalithaa urged the Central and state governments to take severe

>action against the culprits who were responsible for the massacre.

>

>Despite toppling the BJP-led NDA government in Centre in 1999,

>Jayalalithaa has been moving closer to BJP in the recent months. She met

>VHP leaders like Ashok Singhal twice in the recent times. After their

>meetings all the VHP leaders repeatedly claimed that Jayalalithaa extended

>her fullest support to build Ram Temple at Ayodhya.

>

>As a reciprocation for her "pro-Hindu" political stand, local VHP leaders

>and Hindu Munnani (RSS-supported militant Hindu outfit in Tamil Nadu)

>leaders supported Jayalalithaa during the recent Andipatti bypolls. Hindu

>Munnani leader Ramagopalan engaged in a hectic election campaigning at

>Andipatti canvassing for Jayalalithaa and lambasted DMK president M.

>Karunanidhi for his "anti-Hindu" approach.

>

>In this background, Jayalalithaa's statement on Gujarat killings and her

>taking up the "majority cause" with the rest of the political parties is

>seen as yet another effort to please the already friendly Hindutva forces

>such as the VHP, the RSS, which in turn may help her to revive her party's

>alliance with BJP in the longer run.
