Since I see many libbies going around saying @JM_Scindia has betrayed the ideology of Madhavrao, I think it is time to rewind and think about how Madhavrao betrayed his own soul and a great soul in Rajamata Vijaya Raje Scindia under the pressure of Indira
The path taken by @JM_Scindia is not new for both @INCMP & Scindia family. His grandmother Rajamata Vijaya Raje Scindia toppled the Congress govt of Madhya Pradesh as a revenge for her insult on stage by fellow congress leaders during the time when she was serving as an MP of INC
Post this incident, Congress leaders always held a grudge against her. The foothold gained by Jan Sangh in MP by riding on her family's popularity further added salt to the wounds of INC high command.
As a result, when emergency was imposed she was also arrested like many other prominent political leaders of that time. Many think that she had a respectful time in jail by considering the fact that her meeting with Rajamata Gayatri Devi happened during her stint in prison
However the truth is quite the opposite. She was housed with pickpockets and third rate goondas during her time in prison. Many of her antique jewels and ancestral property were rumored to confiscated during that time.
Her family members were also pressurized and as a result her own son Madhavrao, who was a Jan Sangh MP at that point of time, left the party and joined hands with Congress. He left Jan Sangh and won from Guna as a Congress backed Independent candidate
The pressure on Rajamata didnt stop here. INC high command also made Madhavrao to file cases against his own mother to confiscate her share of wealth as she was funding the oppn at that point of time. Today this same guy Madhavrao is being hailed as an ideological hero by libbies
In 1984 when she was campaigning for Atal Bihari Vajpayee against her own son, Rajamata gave an interview to @ShekharGupta who was in @indiatoday at that time. In that intvw she said, "I am so disappointed with my son. Why has he come up to be such a coward?..
My son ran away when I was arrested during the emergency. He just could not stand the test."
Even while facing such a tough time in her personal and political life, Rajamata never backed out whenever she had a chance to serve the cause of Dharma. She played a key role in propagating the Ram Janmabhoomi movement which was gaining momentum at that time.
She was such a staunch devotion for the cause of Dharma that while the Babri Masjid was being demolished on the historic day of 6 December 1992, she declared that "she could now die without any regret, for she had seen her dream come true"
Despite being not so politically safe at that point of time, she was one of the first leaders to come out and give such an unapologetic statement. It must be noted that even bigger leaders of the movement took a few hrs to give this sort of an unapologetic reaction on that day
How can the grandson of such a pious soul be in a party which has been going against the cause of Dharma and insulting his family at every single opportunity? I am so happy to note that finally @JM_Scindia has now become the real grandson of Rajamata
She had such a staunch*
Own self*
All his life she had hoped that some day her son will develop some spine and stand up against the dynasts of Congress. Unfortunately that day never came. But today that pious soul would have surely achieved satisfaction by seeing her grandson fulfilling her dreams.
