Pandering to Islamists - Congress plays communal card in Kerala
29/07/2010 14:28:24  The Pioneer Edit Desk

One can understand the Congress’s desperation to win over Muslim votes in the run-up to next year’s Assembly election in Kerala, but it is shocking that the party should stoop to the level of openly backing the radical Islamist outfit — Popular Front of India. The PFI is credited with the shocking misdeed of chopping the right hand of a professor who allegedly defamed Mohammed while setting a question paper. According to the police, it is also said to be involved in a number of other dubious activities aimed at creating communal discord in the State. Yet the Congress has found merit in condemning Chief Minister VS Achuthanandan for saying, and rightly so, that the PFI is trying to “Islamise Kerala”. This remark, in the Congress’s twisted wisdom, amounts to ‘insulting’ Muslims, an interpretation that by no stretch of the imagination is credible. The PFI is not a role model for the community, and there is nothing to suggest that its conduct has the backing of Muslims at large. By lashing out at the State Government for its tough stance, the Congress is only strengthening the hands of subversive elements who seek inspiration from the Taliban. As an experienced politician, Mr Achuthanandan knows what he is talking about. That he has had to use such strong words only shows the threat posed by the PFI to Kerala and to the nation.

Thankfully, the Chief Minister, who is otherwise waging a battle against detractors in the CPI(M), has found support among his adversaries like Mr Pinarayi Vijayan. The State party secretary has backed Mr Achuthanandan’s remarks and said they do not amount to criticising the the Muslim community. Even CPI(M) general secretary Prakash Karat, who does not share a very cordial relationship with Mr Achuthanandan, has reiterated that the PFI and its associates are taking Kerala towards Islamisation. Similarly, LDF members like the Forward Bloc have also been forthright in their condemnation of the PFI. The Congress, thus, stands not only isolated but also exposed: It is shameful that it should forge a communal agenda in the belief that this will help it secure the support of the Muslim community. This is insulting Muslims, not least because most of them are aghast over the frightening attempt to emulate the Taliban.

Interestingly, the Congress attack on the CPI(M) has only served to bridge the divide within the State Government and the CPI(M). The patch-up may not necessarily hold until the election, but if the Congress persists, chances are the various Marxist factions will unite. Whether that will eventually help the Left to retain power is anybody’s guess, but at least it will serve the purpose of putting down Islamists in Kerala. That is the most immediate task and should be undertaken without any delay.

the hand of con-grass
enough damage done to haindavers by con-grass party and it is time during the next assembly election, to take the "Kaipathy" off con-grass by haindavers, by simply casting vote for the party who cares for them.

Hindus of malabar will be becoming endangered species in 15 years
I totally agree with Ganeshji. Ever since the mappila riots of 1923,bad times started for the hindus of malabar. After the rise of communism in 1940s their condition worsened. Now the communists, congress and jihadi/ missionary elements have a complete hold on the malabar region. But the common hindus of malabar are sleeping or pretending to be sleeping. Look at the thinking of hindus of malappuram, where muslims consist nearly 70% of population and security of hindus are left to the mercy of these barbarians, not even 20 % of the hindus vote unanimously for their existence.

Bringing back Hindu Munnani is the need of the hour
Atleast in few sensitive constituencies BJP need to take back seat and support Hindu Munnani candidates. Let's bring back the slogan of 'Hindu votes only to those who protect Hindu interests"
BJP needs to have a re-look at it's strategy.

Jihadi Family
Al queda, Taliban,PDP,ISS,Jama Athe Islami,NDF, Popular Front,MES,Waqf board, etc. etc. etc. belong to the great Jihadi family and every one of them carries the same agenda of Islamisation of India.Ganesh told it openly. Achuthanandan told it in mild language.The present congress is not at all concerned with national security. They can go to any extent for votes.In kerala communalism is nurtured by both congress and communists.Both Congress and communists are responsible for marginalisation of hindus in Kerala.

bitter truth
Islamisation is at the top of the agenda of any muslim outfits including Muslim League.CM's statments sent a shock wave through all of them who thought their agenda is a secret.PFI and IUML are the two branches of the same river, where one of the branch flows along plains quietly and another branch flows along a turbulent mountains and merge together at some point downstream.SO naturally when a dam is built along one of the branches,it effects the flow.These jihadis think others are fools,secularists are feigning innocence to fool the public.As saying goes,fool me once I will beat you,fool me twice i will beat myself.This applies to Jan(Hin)dus only.
"I say quite deliberately that the Christian religion, as organised in its Churches, has been and still is the principal enemy of moral progress in the world."
