I was not here in India when it happened, but I watched it on television.
I saw the Babri Mosque being razed to the ground by the primates of the Sangh Parivar.
All around me was complete silence, the room had at least fifteen to twenty people all huddled around the tube watching BBC.
Every one in the room that day had one thing to say when they recovered from the momentary shock, we all agreed that 'that' should not have happened. That things will not be the same again, and we will have no peace now that these marauding idiots have blackened our name.
Well truly enough, we have had to pay, and dearly for our own mistakes, mistakes of varying degrees of seriousness, but mistakes nonetheless. Right from supporting those neanderthals outright, to being silent watchers, to the other extreme of accusing the other side of provoking these barbaric acts just because we didn't have the courage to face the truth and speak up.
Then the rest is history, people rewarded with the best posts, highest posts in the country.
Parties like BJP and Shiv Sena who captured power at the center and in states riding on the saffron wave they helped create. This was the Tsunami of the early nineties. Scams and mismanagements and misgovernance resulted in a nation regressing by at least 20 years.
Then came the few attempts at revenge by frustrated youth from the minority community.
The fascists taking cue from this retaliatory misadventure by these youth wreaked havoc on the unsuspecting commoner. They took full advantage of the belief that every act of retaliatory crime would be credited to the minority youth.
But not once was any incriminatory finger pointed at the fascists. Till date the fascists are walking free after every such supposed act of terrorism perpetrated by the minority youth.
People either turn a blind eye or play the ostrich at such times.
Our immediate neighbors have an axe to grind, so they have at such times made sure they send their hordes to cause some more trouble. Like in the case of the 26 /11 Mumbai attack.
They would not have dared attack BOMBAY, but that Bombay doesn't exist, at least not on paper, its only in the minds and the hearts of the true Bombayite.
Yes a lot of outsiders from other cities in Maharashtra and the country have come to Bombay and taken over from the ubiquitous Bumbaiya.
This Bumbaiya has taken the back seat now, and the boastful outsiders couldn't protect this town. Petrified they watched the news on their television sets while a bunch of paid goons from across the border went about cutting down innocents with their sophisticated weapons.
The few cops who were killed, died because they were too used to fake encounters. but I will not belittle the sacrifice of the brave cop Ombale who died fighting. Hats off to him and the commandos who finally died protecting a city that doesn't want people from their states.
The common Indian has lost his life, but the curse of the fallen Mosque is on all those villains who perpetrated crimes of the worst order, who plotted and plundered. Now they witness with their own eyes the end of an empire they created. An evil empire, that has abandoned them and that itself is falling, in self destruction.
The Advani's, the Modi's and the Thackeray's are accursed to live and watch the end of all they created by unscrupulous and evil means.
The Atal's, Joshi's and others have been relegated to oblivion.
But the Nation will prosper once again, we will go on, with a lesson not learnt. Unless we see that justice prevails and that justice is not delayed.
India is too great a nation to be affected by such puny attacks by the likes of Kasab or Headley.
But the audacity of these adventurist suicidals is encouraged by the apathy of the people of India.
The Majority should put things right like applying 'system restore' to the national scene, and
restore the Babri Mosque brick by brick. And ensure that the Minority doesn't have to demonstrate its patriotism every time when demanded by Sangh Brigade.
