Mangalore: Congress Has Done Zilch for Minority Community Development—Anwar Manippady

Daijiworld Media Network—Mangalore (RS/CN) 

Mangalore, Apr 22:  “When the Congress government was in power, lots of communal disturbances occurred that hurt the minority community. However, that party only conspired to get political benefits from the minorities but did not help in their development in the least”, said Anwar Manippady, vice-president, BJP state committee. 

Speaking in a press meet at the BJP electoral office, Manippady said, “From 1948 to 2004, there are 3,368 reported incidents of communal violence. Of these 3,111 took place during Congress rule in the state and 111 incidents were noted as serious.  Most of these continued for weeks and months. But during the BJP rule, such violence has been controlled within 12 or 24 hours at the most.”  

“The wooing of the minority community is something the Congress knows well, but their contribution to developmental projects for the community is very little. The Congress has a politically-motivated attitude towards Muslims and other minorities”, he alleged.   












Manippady claimed that the BJP-led NDA which ruled India provided various packages to the Muslim community and the Congress has done no such thing despite ruling the country for over 55 years. 

He added that the BJP-led state government had also provided similar packages to the   minority sector with at least 75, 000 people from these communities in rural areas being the beneficiaries.  

Manippady accused the Congress-led UPA government of treating the state in a step-motherly manner by neglecting security proposals, and railway development schemes.          

“When the NDA was ruling a shortage of LPG, food, and fertilizers, did not take place but it all occurred under the UPA government. All these essential commodities went out of reach of the common man with the prices being hiked sky high”, he added.  

BJP minority committee leader Franklin Monteiro, and Raheem Uchchil were present at the press meet. After the press meet, workers from the minority committee convened for a conference at the same venue.

    INDIA IS A DEMOCRATIC, DEVELPOING COUNTRY AND I AM REALLY PROUD TO BE AN INDIAN. WE SHOULD SUPPORT THE PEOPLE WHO ARE SACRIFICING THEIR LIFE TO UNITE THE PEOPLE OF INDIA AND NOT FOR THOSE  WHO DIVIDE THE PEOPLE.

    Mr Richard Alvares, my brother, I must thank you for agreeing with me. Now answering about your question of why other religions are not allowed to practice in Islamic countries like, Afganistan and Pakistan? A good question. Both these countries are poorest of all nations, they dont have a political government and in great chaos. These are the only two countries in the world who are exporting terror across the world and they are fanatics and threat to the world and disgrace to  civilization. But you cant draw your conclusion by the acts of these two countries. Why dont you look at other Islamic countries like UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Egypt, Lebanon, Turkey, Libya, Morocco, etc etc. where you are protected, free to practice your faith, where you are earning your livelihood in legal and peaceful ways. But in China, you cant practice your faith, you must know it. You cant apply your theory as blanket application to all Islamic countries. So we must do it on case to case basis. Where there is tolerance and security, that country would flourish and shall have peace. Where there is hate and restrictions, that country would perish and shall go down the history.  We should use this platform and our religion to spread peace and love and clear the misconception about one''s religion. Thank you Daiji World for giving us this unbiased platform to express our views. I wish you a long successfuly journey in the days to come. May Lord bless you and your team.

    Bharat is a land of Sants and Rishis. Many Gods and Rishis have taken avatar in this land - Ram, Krishna, Mahavir, Bhuddha, Adhi Shankara, Guru Nanak, etc. That is why it is called Devbhoomi, Punyabhoomi, etc. For us, it is the Motherland (Mathrubhoomi), and we worship Her as "Bharat Mata". Bharat has all along been a de facto Hindu Nation, although it has been ruled by Muslims and Christians for nearly 1000 years. There is no country in the world which, after being enslaved for nearly 1000 years, takes ''REBIRTH" as one country. Bharat did so, in spite of so much diversity in the name of caste, language, region, etc. This oneness was due to the spiritual and cultural unity of Bharat, which in other words is called Hindutva. Moreover, Spiritualism and Nationalism have always been interlinked in Bharat. Even today Bharat is a Hindu Nation,otherwise democracy and secularism could not have survived. Today one fears that history is being repeated and Bharat may once again slip into the hands of forces inimical to democracy and secularism, who may rule Bharat as dictators enforcing their religious dogmas on Hindus. It is therefore the duty of every citizen believing in peace, tolerance and pluralism, to raise his voice against Adharm - any force that tries to destalibise the spiritual and cultural unity of Bharat. When Dharm becomes a mute spectator as in Mahabharat, Adharm will rule the roost, which will ultimately lead to Kurukshetra.

    Is it important to observe Hindu Dharama than practice conern, compassion and harmony? What use is religion if you do not see the divine in others and practice hate? Will the BJP, RSS, VHP, ABVP and their associates respond? Religion is for union with the divine and union with humanity. It is not for hate

    Mr Navin Sinha/Patna, your figures are all false and given by your mentor organisation RSS. The sources of names of twin Pak cities, as pointed out by you are fake and fraud. Secondly could you please give one country outside, except Nepal which is Hindu nation. Islam was born in Arabian desert 1400 years ago, because of its good teachings it spread outside Arabia. Because of religious fanatics and hardliner like you, your own religion in your country is reduced to India and Nepal. You should be generous in your belief. Hinduism is a great religion of all times and practiced world wide. But the caste system, brahmin supremacy has reduced it to single nation. BR Ambedkar embraced buddhism becuase of your caste system. Sri lanka, China, Japan, Korea, etc etc are all hindus before the advent of Buddhism. Buddhism preached good things and it was accepted by majority of South Asian countries. Your brahmin hegemony will not allow other relgion to come and flourish in India. For your information, we muslims didnt come from Arabia, but because of suppression by the upper caste brahmins, we embraced islam as in islam everybody is equal before God except for his deeds. But in caste system, the supremacy is decided by birth and not by deeds. Thats most unfortunate and I am sure you cant digest this naked truth. If you dont stop this varna system and brahmin supremacy, the days are not far the low caste hindus shall revolt against this sytem and already the dalit movement has started and it will catch fire and this fire shall engulf your caste system. Secondly, from your comments you meant that we must embrace hinduism if we want to live in India. As long as there is no equality and status and respect is predtermined by birth, you cant stop low caste hindus converting into Islam and Christianity. Can you please give me one singe example where a dalit has become brahmin. Can you pleas give me one example where a brahmin has become dalit. Most of the hindus who convert to islam and christianith are low caste poor hindus and dalits. If you are outcasted in your own society what shall you do my friend??? A dalit cant perform pooja in temple, he cant enter the temple but this practice is not in other religion. Can you please coolly give me your reply

    Mr.shahnawaz kukkikatte, dubai/udupi, Mr. Ms.Sheetal, Bangalore/USA, Ms.Saira Rasheed, Mangalore/USA. Really I liked your comments with detailed statistics. Can u also make elaboration on the following? 1. 200 (two hundred) years ago Hindus in Kandahar (Afghanistan) were observing the Sanathan Dharm by performing Pooja and singing Bhajans and Kirtans. Today there is no one. There are only Al Qaedas and Talibans, enforcing Shariat law of ''eye for an eye'', ''leg for a leg'', etc. 2. 100 (hundred) years ago, Hindus in Lahore and Karachi (which derives their name from Lav and Kush, the sons of Sri Ram) were observing the Sanathan Dharm by performing Pooja and singing Bhajans and Kirtans. Today there is none. All have vanished into thin air. After the creation of Pakistan in 1947, by dividing our Motherland Bharat, it was named ''Islamic Republic of Pakistan'' and became an Islamic country. Hindus who formed nearly 24% of Pakistan at the time of partition, have been reduced to less than 1% today. 3. 50 (fifty) years ago, Hindus in Srinagar (Kashmir) too were observing the Sanathan Dharm by performing Pooja and singing Bhajans and Kirtans. Today no one is left there to do so. All have been chased away, and are living like refugees in Jammu and Delhi. Considering the above historical facts, 50 (fifty) years from now, Will your children have the freedom of thought and expression? Logic says ''NO''. Social demography also confirms this. Symptoms too point out towards that stark eventuality (I can give you hundreds of examples):

    Mr Raniith/Dubai, Why are you not speaking now? Saira Rasheed/USA has given the demographic break up of India based on releigion. But according to me the muslim population is more than 25%. For arguments sake, lets agree with Mrs Saira''s figures. Pakistan was given to the muslims who opted to go to Pak during 1947. How about those muslims and their descendants who opted to stay back. The present day muslims have no claim in Pakistan land/soil. But surely they have a legal and rightful stake in Indian land and soil.

    We muslims dont want to go away from India and we are proud Indian muslims. But your RSS and its parivar, say that India belongs to hindus only, then would you please give us 25% of Indian land to us so that we breakaway from you and form our own country? You are forcing us to breakaway from you. Thats the last and unwanted choice. But you are compelling us. Under BJP''s rule I am sure India will fall apart and break into pieces.

    Similarly, in order India to be called as only Hindu land, would you aslo give away a part of Indian land to Christians, Jains, sikhs, Buddhists. I know that RSS which advocates Brahmin supremacy, and brahmin politics (Chanakya) knows it very well that muslims, christians, buddhists, sikhs etc who dont believe in Varna based caste system are obstacle to their agenda of one India and caste system, so they are planning to isolate non hindus.

    Dear RSS members and Ranjith, your ideology wont work and if you wish that its your aim of achieving one India, then I am sure you are calling for breaking up of India in to pieces. History repeats itself. India was attacked and ann by foreign rulers because some one invited them to do so and we became slaves and subjects. Again we are standing very close to the repetition of history and very soon we will once again become slaves and subjects which is a dangerous sign. We shall have to foget our own independance, our democracy, and your ideology. Open your eyes and ears before it is too late.

    Mr.Anand Kumar, Who gives you the right to dictate how many children one should have? You are a disgrace to the Indian community. India is secular country and democratic. Every Indian be it a Muslim or any other religion has the right to have as many kids as they want. If Muslims where having all the babies why is the Hindu population so high. You say you and your family are educated, sounds like you need to go back to school and educate your self on Muslims, tolerance and how to get rid of that hatred towards Muslims. It is Ignorant people like you who are slowing the development of the country. Not Muslim parents who have more then two kids... I hope you are not instilling this hatred towards Muslims in your children. Get to know your Muslim neighbors they are people like you, with feelings. Put yourself in their shoes and see how you would feel. There is still time to change. I wish you well. For your Info Here is the Religious Composition Population (%) Hindus 827,578,868 80.5% Muslims 138,188,240 13.4% Christians 24,080,016 2.3% Sikhs 19,215,730 1.9% Buddhists 7,955,207 0.8% Jains 4,225,053 0.4% Other Religions & Persuasions 6,639,626 0.6% Religion not stated 727,588 0.1% Total* 1,028,610,328

    It''s saddening me. Children s of same mother fighting over religion,cast creed and sect. We are all childrens of Mother India. It''s true that we are practicing different faith like different flowers in a garden. But some flowers are attractive in colors but poisonous in nature. That what I am experiencing here by the comments. You can not say the other child to leave the mother and go somewhere. Because mother India belongs to all and not for a particular community, party or organization irrespective of whatever ideology they may follow.

    What you will get by keeping hatred and animosity in your heart towards some communities.?? what pleasure you may get by criticizing them ?? is it not a sadist mentality?? why can''t you show love and peace. I am really sad.. several hindu scriptures vedas, upanishads, I have gone through and never found any indication or encouragement to hate other faiths or communities.

    Some are claiming here to be real Hindus. who is a real Hindu?? what is the true meaning of Hindu?? do any one know?? How many of hindus here know the real meaning of Hindu?? Hindu is not a religion at all. It is a way of life, a way of culture. A culture where it embraces all creatures either it be human or other as sacred. Then from where the hate took birth.

    Really I feel sad.Our mother India weeping. because her own children  are fighting and shedding blood in front of her in the name of religion, colour, cast, creed. Mandir Masjid, church, gurudwar will not restore peace among us. As long as our hearts are not open , not pure , we can not expect peace." Satyam Shivam Sundaram"

    Mr. Anwar Manippady, I agree with you that congress always use minority vote bank for their benefit & today minorities in India feel second grade cititizen in their own country. We cannot blame only congress party, every single political party used minority community for their vote bank politics. One hand so called secular parties eye washing minorities with lolly pop to get vote and on other hand parties like BJP & SHIV sena encashing the lolly pop offer of opposition for majority vote bank. Enough is enough, my request to all our voters, do not look at party, go for good canditate who can work for us with no bias of minority or majority.

How would they so easily forget what the bjp and its militant outfits did to the Christians and Muslims particularly in coastal karnataka? Has the ''deal'' so blinded them that they don''t see the reality? Mr Anwar and Mr Franklin please remember that others are not fools like you to be blinded by money.

India belongs to its citizens and not to Hindus alone. I think you are not in senses and need immediate treatment. Secondly you say BJP has nothing to do with other organisations.

    In BJP you have pluralism, A BJP member is an automatic member of Bajrang Dal, Rama Sene, RSS, VHP, etc etc. U cant draw a line between them. This is a fact and whole people know about this fact and I am shocked to know about your ignorance and your attitude. Why are you earning and living in a muslim country, if you dont like them.

    Pack up and get out of Dubai and start working in India so that you can strengthen your party and lead them to victory in this election

    My dear brothers, Mr Jeevan/Dubai, Praveen/Punjakatte,Raj/Mangalore and Ranjith/Dubai. I know and its obvious from your comments that you are supporters of BJP. There is no harm in that. But if someone self styled person comes and says that he is the saviour of minorities, I dont agree with you. Mr Manipady doesnot represent the muslim community. Secondly, BJP is a political arm of RSS and you must know what does RSS stands for.

    Advani or Vajapayee of Rajnath Singh has no power to take any independant decission without seeking consultation and blessings by RSS. RSS does not believe in Secular plural India and does not respect the Constitution. Their agenda is One nation, one India and one culture. They want to force their idealogy on others. They dont believe in unity in deiversity. Secondly I am surprised to see one ignorant comment by one of the above men, who says that majority are protecting minorities. Is it a joke or fact. Where were these majorities when churches were attacked? Where were these majorities when Babri Masjid was brought down, Who broke the idol of Jesus and mother Mary.

    No majority is protecting the monorities or vice versa. We have a system, we have a constitution that is protecting every one and your BJP which implements RSS ideology doesnot believe in constituion and the system. You believe in hate, you believe in violence and you believe in everything that devides the communities. It is not the person, but its the party and its ideology that matters to us. Person may die, but party and its ideology continues. I dont say congress is a good party. But its a national party and is less criminal and dangerous than BJP.

    We dont have any other choice but to support a more secular party. For eg. any political leader who gives anti muslim speech and hate speech, BJP comes in his defense and doesnot criticise. Abhinave bharath, Prajna Singh, Col Purohit were implicated in malegoan bombing, instead of criticising this act, BJP was first one to defend these people and give all logistic/legal support to these men. We dont endorse any one even if he is a muslim, who works and endorse communual and devide and rule policy of BJP. We shall endorse those parties who respect our constituion and believe in inclusive plural India. Mr Manipady is an exception.

    But muslims have been betrayed by this BJP and RSS. We dont need majority to protect us. We are capable of protecting ourselves. We love our mother India more than RSS cadre does. Lets wait and see until May 16, as to what my fellow Indian citizens have decided. Decided for single india or plural India.

    Well Manipaddy are you using now bicycle ? Are your people are using bicycle for bringing fish from Port ? Why you do''nt mentioned that people are using now Tempo/Scooters for fish trade. Your people are looking only for negative matter and do not wish to mention country''s development.

    Every body knew that India is developing fast, ofcourse it took so many years to develop because of our huge population. Manipaddy first you tell us how many children do you have or earlier how many people were having children, like we are 11 in our family. We found so many difficulties during those days to give studies for every one of us.

    My parents took lot of difficulties to give education for every one in our family. So we all are educated and all my brothers/sisters do not have more than 2 children except one family who have 3. Those days people were fighting for thier hunger because of joblessness etc. Now the trend has changed. Every educated person do not wish more than 2 children.

    I think Manippady should acknowledge this my comment and if he wish to tell his community to have children not more than 2 than only our country will develop soon without any delay. This must Manipaddy should take more campaign rather than communal talk.

     If we see above the photograph sure these are the same like old mentallity people, jobless people. These are actual not supporters of BJP. BJP makes Poli tricks to show us that they have minority support with them. There is no doubt that this the foolish game from BJP and Manipaddy.

    Shame on you Mr. Manippady, you all are power hungry politicians! Bringing some poor innocent muslim women and trying to encash their votes for personal gain is always been the vote bank politics.Though congress too doing the vote bank politics, at this juncture no sensible man can agree with you that BJP can protect minority interest.

    We indians belong to a democratic country and have the right to speak or right against a Government or sometimes religion for that instance. However, it is upto an individual to think before he or she speaks or does. So friends think and vote for the right candidate. Don''t get mesmerized by these political speeches and their false promises. They lead you nowhere.

    Mr. Ranjith, Dubai..First and foremost who are you to ask someone to go to Pakistan?? India is democratic country and every individual whether Hindu, Muslim or Christian has the right to live in India. Its the BJP and its gundas (Bajrang Dal, RSS, Sangh Parivaar etc) now trying to exploit the peaceful environment of our beautiful India which is rich in its varied cultures & traditions.

    Let me make a point here to all those who think that Muslims should go to Pakistan and Christians should go to USA or UK..if your are having so much of prejudice then why are you being a Hypocrite??? Why are hindus found in USA, UK, Australia and other western countries??? Should they also be given such treatment like how the BJP treats the minorities here in India??? Plz dont be a hypocrite..Always Be just and act sensibly!!

    Anwar Manipady is not chosen by any muslim so he cannot talk on behalf of muslims. India is not for any one relegion , it is for true indians, today in front of the whole world we can proudly keep our heads up and say that Dr. Manmohan singh is our Prime minister who without any doubt has the best qualification and personality than any other person in indian politics.

    It clearly shows that Mr. Anwar Manipaddy''s palms have been greased..Shame on such greedy people who have no feelings & no empathy for their bretheren!! Just so that he can become rich and powerful Manipaddy has sold himself to the BJP.

    If I were a muslim I would surely not believe manipaddy''s sugar coated words..it is just too hard to believe & alomost impossible to digest that BJP will be interested in the development of Muslims :-) Ohh..Manipaddy has good sense of Humor!!

    Well, have anyone ever read or heard that VHP, RSS, Vishwa hindu parishath, Bajrang Dal, Rama Sena or any other hindu organisations claimed or said that they belong BJP or they are the Wing of BJP ?? These are Hindu organisations who are just supporting BJP just like any other Organisations. So, I feel that if Rama sena or VHP or any organisation is working on something, which others feel its wrong, dont point fingers on BJP, you can only comment or take action on those organizations only and not BJP.

    Mr Anwar and Mr Franklin please remember that BJP wants you only during elections. Why is that there is no prominent BJP leader to share the dais with you? When the members of your communities have been attacked by BJP and its outfits, it is a shame that you still campaign for this party.

Where was he when recently minorities were subjected to so much of atrocities and humiliation during BJP rule. I''m sure he must have been hiding in the underworld?

    It is very true that Congress Has Done Zilch for Minority Community Development. But under BJP rule, there was a lot of development for minorities. Our churches got vandalized, our women and nuns got beaten by police, innocent youth got arrested. Young girls in pubs and buses were beaten up. And all the culprits who are responsible for this are free. Is this the development minorities got from BJP? Wait and see, they will give us more development.

Even after all the atrocities happening around IXE during the rule of BJP in the past few months. IXE is no more a safe place anymore for minorities and this is thanx to BJP and their goons. Shame!
