One
of the biggest sin that a person can commit would be a betrayal to one’s own
nation, the nation that gave him birth, the nation that brought him up and the
nation that allocated him with all the resources that needed to survive on and
move ahead, the nation which gave him the opportunity to do something for
himself and the nation which is equivalent to his own mother. But this world is
truly replenished with such crazy people who commit the betrayal and continue
doing that till the day they are not exposed and the biggest thing is they don’t
even feel shameful about the matter.
The
whole plot started at the time when the prospects of Mr. Modi’s fighting the
election to the country’s most premium position i.e. the Prime Minister of the
nation gained weight. The opposition became highly wary and careful of the
rising popularity of this leader and that of his most trusted companion and
minister Mr. Amit Shah and to restrain Mr. Modi to get the top job, a complete
plan was hatched in order to sabotage all the prospects of his becoming Prime
Minister and the plan was so much meticulously designed that it could immensely
malign the image of the two leader and could even send them to jail.
Early
on the morning of 15 june 2004, Ishrat
Jahan, Javed Sheikh, Zeeshan Johar and Amjad Ali Rana were shot dead on the
road leading to the Kotarpur waterworks on the outskirts of Ahmedabad.
This is one of the most debated encounter in the Indian history. Soon after the
encounter, the whole political system of India was shaken and those trying to
gain up the Muslim votes banked hugely on this matter as this became the key to
their political success ahead. After the Gujarat riots in the year 2002 and
some cases of encounters out there, of people who were trying to kill the then
Chief Minister of state Mr. Modi, various human rights commission had been
complaining of the state’s unacceptable behavior towards Muslim (which itself
is completely baseless and even Muslims of Gujarat claim that the amount of
economic well being they experienced during the time of Mr. Modi’s government
has been unprecedented) and the issue of Ishrat Jahan came as a breather for
those who were annoyed at the huge progress the state of Gujarat had made. CBI( Central Bureau of Investigation) in an
outright manner blamed the Gujarat police officials saying that the encounter
was done just to gain promotions but never spoke anything about the alleged
relation of Ishrat Jahan with LeT terrorist organization of Pakistan.
On 15 July 2004, The
Indian Express, The Times of India, Rediff.com,
Outlook carried news
reports that "the Lahore-based Ghazwa Times, mouthpiece of the Lashkar-e-Taiba"
had acknowledged Ishrat Jahan as a Lashkar-e-Taiba operative. According to these news
reports, the Ghazwa Times had published an article on the
"Jamat-ul-Dawa" website
stating that "the veil of Ishrat Jahan, a woman activist of LeT, was
removed by Indian police and her body was kept with other mujahideens
(terrorists) on the ground", and that "Ishrat was with her husband,
sitting on the front seat of the car". In June 2007, the Business Standard reported that the "global terror
group Lashkar-e-Taiyba" had apologized to Indian muslims on 2 May 2007 on the Jamaat-ud-Dawah's website
"for causing them problems due to an inadvertent mistake", with the
article implying that mistake in question was the claim that "Ishrat Jehan
Reza had been a Lashkar operative". The whole plot was actually a
plan of this deadly terror group in order to take full benefit of the game that
Indians were themselves playing against India.
In between the whole drama, the
Metropolitan Magistrate SP Tamang, himself gave his report claiming that the
encounter was staged one by officers who wanted promotion and Ishrat Jahan had
nothing to do with LeT and interesting he even concluded the time when
encounter took place despite of having any witness of the encounter. Even the Gujarat high court acknowledged that
fact stayed the Tamang report on 9 September 2009 but gave liberty to Ishrat's
mother to produce the report before the three-member committee constituted by
the High Court to investigate the encounter. Justice Kalpesh Javheri said the
observations made in the report were beyond the jurisdiction of the judicial
magistrate. The Division Bench directed the
Registrar-General of the High Court to institute a departmental inquiry into
the conduct of Mr. Tamang in holding a parallel inquiry into the encounter,
when the High Court was already seized of the matter, and submitting the report
without its permission.
In the year 2010, David Headley,
one of the masterminds of the 26/11 attacks, imprisoned in the USA, claimed
that, Ishrat Jahan was a LeT “fidayeen” (suicide bomber) deputed to kill the
then Chief Minister of state. NIA (National Intelligence Agency) called its all
false and baseless but later IB (Intelligence Bureau) stated that the whole
thing was true and NIA had deleted these comments of Headley from its reports
and that the UPA government knew of it but hid the fact from the court as well
as the nation.
Though the matter had now come to
a still rest with normal proceeding going on but, as they say, the truth can
never be hidden. Just as Mr. Modi took the PMO (Prime Minister Office) NIA,
informed him that they had complete proofs to prove that Ishrat Jahan was a LeT
operative and shockingly, an affidavit signed by then Home Minister Mr. P
Chidambaram came up in which he testified that Ishrat Jahan was a terrorist but
later Mr. Chidambaram got the affidavit changed and said that Ishrat Jahan had
no links with LeT. Headley has also lately confirmed his previous statement
that Ishrat Jahan was a LeT operative working for the terror organization.
Mr. P Chidambaram’s affidavit as
well the UPA’s governments act of concealing the true facts from the nation
clearly portray one thing that the UPA government has cheated with the nation
with an intention to divide the nation to get its vote bank and besides that
there was complete planning to get Mr. Modi behind the bar. This itself is not
the only such case. The “Samjhauta express” blast in which the word
saffron terror was coined by the UPA government too is a replica of this case.
These things lucidly portray, how
much people can fall down just to play the politics of divide the rule. I would just advise such people to play for
nation, rather than playing against the nation. They carry the onus of taking
the nation ahead rather than breaking it up in fragments. So rather, than playing such games, go and do something constructive
for the nation and its people.
