Recently a woman made certain offensive tweets at me and Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) provoking me into a reaction. The woman was inconsequential and her arguments stupid,but it set me thinking: why do people abuse the RSS so much without knowing the first thing about it?...
And why do seemingly intelligent people believe,without question,in Goebbelsian lies thrown at them by Islamists,Leftists and Nehruvians (ILN)? I pondered over the question and came to the following conclusions:
1. The fact that there are no thieves nor anti-nationals in the....
RSS somehow unnerves the ILN
2. Similarly the discipline in the RSS ranks and the fierce loyalty that RSS generates also unnerves them.
3. They are scared of the way RSS works quietly,steadily with 50-year or 100-year horizons and have already busted the ILN myth “A Muslim....
can do no wrong”.
4. So they make up myths like “RSS murdered Gandhi”,”Savarkar got out of Andamans by signing a dishonorable undertaking”,etc. They also make fun of Swayamsevaks by calling them ‘Chaddis’.
But in truth THEY ARE AFRAID OF THE RSS. Because the RSS,by its quiet....
and patient work over nearly a century,have RE-ENGINEERED HINDU SOCIETY. Hindus are no longer the weak,helpless,beleaguered multitude,divided by language and caste,fed on a lot of false history,forever living in fear of a fanatic minority. Hindus today are resolute,conscious...
of their proud history and the injustice done to them,prepared as always to live in harmony with their neighbours,but equally prepared to hit back with ten times the force when hit and not babble ‘ahimsa’.

And BTW,the most widely spread Goebbelsian myth spread about the RSS:...
The RSS did not kill Gandhiji,it never entered their minds. THE PROOF of that is that the Government slapped a ban on them as a knee-jerk reaction; but WERE FORCED TO LIFT THAT BAN when they found nothing against the RSS. Strange that this never occurs to people who parrot the...
myth mindlessly.
The RSS works with a single objective: To organize and awaken Hindu society as Hindus (and not as Brahmins or Dalits,Bengalis of Gujaratis); and to make human beings in that mould. It is not into politics,trade union or anything of the sort.
Bharat Mata ki Jai!

After 1947 a huge number of Bihari Muslims migrated to East Pakistan and settled there. They committed the most horrible bestialities on Hindus there. Some of these have been described in my book ‘My People,Uprooted’ and ‘Ja Chhilo Amar Desh’.
During the liberation war of
Bangladesh the Biharis sided with the Pakistanis,became Razakars,and killed Hindus and Bengali Muslims alike. Chuknagar mass murder,possibly the worst such in this subcontinent,Rayer Bazar massacre of intellectuals at Dhaka,and the Santahar train massacre were committed by them.
Even after BD was liberated they killed the famous filmmaker Zaheer Rayhan. But they became persona non grata in Bangladesh and wanted to emigrate to Pakistan. Now Pakistan did a neat bolte-face and said they wouldn’t take the Biharis back.
The Biharis then decided to get back

I listened to a lot of Bengali/English TV channels,and participated in one,to hear how TMC defends the indefensible: the murderous attack on BJP’s National President. They used 4 weapons:
1.Whataboutery 2.Irrelevancies 3.Negation (it never happened) and 4.Good old shouting.
But the most interesting was the one holding the ONLY POST in the party (anyone familiar with West Bengal politics knows there is only one holder of a POST in TMC; the rest are lampposts). She called the whole episode ‘Nautanki’! She even made fun of Naddajis name,calling him
Nadda-Bhadda-Gadda!
She had very little decency in her to begin with,as was manifest from (a) her threat to tie a rope around Modiji’s waist and (b) gesticulating about the central government pushing a ‘bamboo’. But this,to a national leader,the victim of a dastardly attack!

I was quite surprised at Mamata Banerjee’s blaming the Railways for delay in commissioning Majherhat Bridge. I am,apart from being in politics,a former Chief Engineer of Indian Railways. I was quite incensed and made inquiries from my own sources. Mamata has mixed 95% untruth
with 5% facts and dished it out. Here are the facts,simply put in layman’s language.

West Bengal PWD first proposed a ‘Bowstring Girder’ bridge for this job. Then,of their own,they changed it to a ‘Cable Stayed’ bridge which is quite a different kettle of fish and is much
more complicated. Indian Railways,a venerable institution of 167 years standing won’t pass a design lightly,least of all a cable stayed bridge. Still they approved the design,(with necessary changes) in the minimum possible time. But Railways insisted that the bridge

Today is Kojagari Laxmi Purnima. On this day Bengali Hindus worship Devi Laxmi,the Hindu Goddess of wealth,and pray for prosperity. But in pre-partition Bengal,on this day (10th October 1946) there was no jubilation among the 20% minority Hindus of Noakhali district and
Chandpur,now in Bangladesh. The majority Muslims,under the leadership of a Muslim League goon called Ghulam Sarwar,mounted an attack on them. The leaders among the Hindus were beheaded. The rest were forced to ‘embrace Islam’ or die horribly. Many,including many of
the so-called ‘lower castes’,refused to give up their religion and chose death. The usual method of conversion was to kill the cow of the household and feed a forced meal of beef. For Hindu women between seven and seventy rape was the usual thing to do. The prevalent Hindu

Recently I had expressed joy as a construction man at the completion of the Rohtang tunnel. Today I hang my head in shame at the state of the Posta flyover of Kolkata that I had occasion to see.
It collapsed in 2016 and killed 50 people. How callous can be a government
be that not even the debris could be removed in 4 years? No responsibility could be fixed for the disaster! No report made public,no discussion in professional journals from which other engineers could draw lessons and prevent similar collapses in future!
I remember the cases
of Tacoma Narrows bridge (nicknamed ‘Galloping Gertie’) and Grand Coulee Dam,both in the Washington state of USA. Both suffered disasters and both were thoroughly investigated and publicised. Yet we engineers know nothing about Posta flyover and Majherhat bridge collapses

First the CPI(M),then Trinomool governments tried to remove the ‘West’ from West Bengal,the name of the state. The intention was clearly to make people forget that there was an East Bengal,and Hindus suffered unspeakable atrocities there.
The Union Home ministry had declined
to do so. Yet the Bengali print media of Kolkata,tongues hanging out for ads and largesse from state govt,keeps on calling the state ‘Bongo’,as Mamata wanted,and not ‘Poshchimbongo’.
Some people draw the parallel of Punjab,say that the prefixes ‘East’ in India and ‘West’ in
Pakistan have both been dropped. This is a specious argument. Because in Punjab the process of partition is COMPLETE,with practically all Hindus and Sikhs having come away to India and all Muslims gone away to Pakistan. That was not so in Bengal. In erstwhile East Bengal,now
