China jumped ahead of India and is well on its way to become the world’s No.1 power by the middle of this century. But India’s corrupt Brahminical leadership, famous for its bragging and boasting (the latest is “India entering trillion dollar economy”), is pushing the country down, making it a failed state even as it is suppressing facts with the help of its monopoly Manuwadi media.
All this we have said a hundred and one times, but what is new is an article by an agricultural expert (see p.4), Ravinder Singh, exposing the 50-year-old frauds of an Iyer, M.S. Swaminathan, who is the principal villain of India’s total paralysis on the agricultural front. Had our rural India been happy, self-sufficient, and farmers strong, there would not have been such a serious crisis in the country. Punjab, “the bread basket of India,” coming to grief on the agriculture front is a shocking development.
It looks like the country is beyond repair.
Cry in wilderness: The problem with India is its agricultural policies are formulated by people who are urban-born and have never lived in villages — let alone anything to do with agriculture.
In Dalit Voice, we were the first to expose the frauds of Swaminathan, but ours is a cry in the wilderness because Swaminathan is fully protected as he belongs to the very class-caste that is ruling the country.
As India is packed with frauds in the media who belong to Swaminathan’s tribe, they will give him full protection. Brahminical people do not want the innocent but hardworking farmers, who belong to the Backward Castes (SC/ST/BCs), to prosper and come up to compete with them. So they resort to all sorts of wicked tricks, and that is how this crook has their full support.
P. Sainath silence: We will give one striking example of the conspiracy of silence on the part of the Brahminical journalists. P. Sainath has a regular column in The Hindu on agriculture and he has written countless articles and reports and even books, delivered lectures, winning international awards for narrating the heart-rending stories of the suicide of farmers, chaos in agriculture, and the slow death of rural India.
Why has this journalist not written on the role of Swaminathan in this crisis? He gives a very graphic picture of the gloom and doom in rural India, furnishing all the details of the symptoms of the disease without diagnosing the disease and without even naming the crook and the culprit.
Who caused this cataclysm? (Dalit Voice, March 1, 2000, p.5: “The Sainaths promoting Dalit-Bahujan conflicts hiding Vaidik mischief”).
Sharad Pawar mischief: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, also an upper caste and urban-oriented with the same value system, has played into their hands. Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar, busy with his Maratha caste politics and cricket, left the field free to this crook. The result is chaos in the rural front. But the city-dwelling upper castes living in the shadow of “India shining” are not bothered.
Look at the Dalit Voice reference to this fraud including one by the RSS journal, Organiser, at the end.
