‘Ram Mandir’ anaesthesia for upcoming polls
BJP and Sangh Parivar are slowly understanding the fact that the nation by now has realized Narendra Modi is an illusion that was created by the media and corporate sector. In four years’ time, Modi has shown to the country that he is the weakest and most undeserving Prime Minister the country has ever seen. He is a namesake PM, while the real decisions are being taken by industrialists such as the Ambanis and RSS. The nation is bearing the brunt of this now. Black money didn’t come back into the banks. Instead, the poor were fleeced and their money was being usurped by the banks. Economy hit rock bottom owing to note ban.
Those who thought demonetization would be a great success were disappointed. Rupee has almost slipped into a slumber against the dollar. Oil rates have skyrocketed. Gas cylinders cost almost Rs 1000 now. Those who let go of gas subsidy are cursing Modi as of now. The concept of digital banking has turned upside down. Aadhar is sucking out people’s lives. Farmers cannot even depend on their cattle owing to the menace of fake Gaurakshaks. Dairy farming has nosedived in rural areas. The government that does not pay heed to people’s miseries, is spending thousands of crores on Gaushala, statues and other things that do not alleviate people’s misery. The government is playing on people’s emotions since it has failed on the administration front. Hunger is more pertinent than emotions. Statue or Gaushala, none of these are able to help lift Modi’s image.
The colour of blue fox has come undone sooner than later. The illusion created by Modi is slowly melting away as the Lok Sabha elections are coming closer. But BJP has no new issues to fool people around with now, since they are forced to cover up for Modi’s blunders than his achievements. Rafael is turning into a noose around the neck of BJP that would refer to Bofors day in and out. At this time, the country has to be kept in the effect of anaesthesia. People have to be kept distracted. Hence, the BJP, Sangh Parivar have come together to blow life into the issue of Ram Mandir. All those who were silent till now have begun to speak about Ram Mandir. As the elections come close, this chanting will reach its crescendo. All those harms he inflicted upon the country would be pushed aside and Ram Mandir issue would take the centre stage. If Sangh Parivar and BJP succeed in winning elections second time over, the country is bound to witness darker days. Country’s economy would roll back by almost a century. Democracy would be finished and street rowdies of Sangh Parivar would take law into their hands.
The statements of people within and outside the government in the name of Ram Mandir are indicating the future of this country. Pejawar Swamiji who kept saying he never supported the Masjid demolition, he had tried to stop it and that he had shed tears when it was brought down etc. Now, he says the Supreme Court has no jurisdiction to give any decision on Ram Mandir, stating courts should not interfere with religion. Now everyone understand the pain behind such statements. It’s pretty evident that he has been supporting superstitious traditions such as Made Snana and separate seating for devotees when they come to receive prasada at the mutt. So he does not want the courts to have a say in this matter. Since untouchability is part of the tradition, he may have a problem with it if the court deems it otherwise. As per him, all the laws against Sati, widow remarriage, ban entry into temples, casteism, all those sound like perfectly religious issues that should be left as is, without being meddled with by the court. In the guise of Ram Mandir, many like him want to bring them back into circulation.
As of now, Supreme Court isn’t going to decide on Ram Mandir per se. The decision is going to be about two claimants for the same piece of land. The court would only speak about who the land would go to, and not about whether a temple should come up there or a mosque. It is not the prerogative of the court to say that. Today, all politicians in the garb of religious leaders are trying to pressurize the court on such matters. “Supreme Court has to rule in favour of us. We know how to deal with it, in case that does not happen” have said loud and clear. Though this seems like a pro-Ram Mandir statement, all these are anti-democractic stances. This is a way of sidelining democracy with Ram Mandir in the front. The 2019 election will decide whether the country needs Ram Mandir or the constitution which returned the rights to common people, dalits and minorities. The future of the country lies in that verdict.

Another North Goa nightclub sealed; Kejriwal says corruption led to fire tragedy
Panaji (PTI): As part of a crackdown against tourist establishments violating laws and safety norms in the aftermath of the Arpora fire tragedy, Goa authorities on Saturday sealed a renowned club at Vagator and revoked the fire department NOC of another club.
Cafe CO2 Goa, located on a cliff overlooking the Arabian Sea at Vagator beach in North Goa, was sealed. The move came two days after Goya Club, also in Vagator, was shut down for alleged violations of rules.
Elsewhere, campaigning for local body polls, AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal said the fire incident at Birch by Romeo Lane nightclub at Arpora, which claimed 25 lives on December 6, happened because the BJP government in the state was corrupt.
An inspection of Cafe CO2 Goa by a state government-appointed team revealed that the establishment, with a seating capacity of 250, did not possess a no-objection certificate (NOC) of the Fire and Emergency Services Department. The club, which sits atop Ozrant Cliff, also did not have structural stability, the team found.
The Fire and Emergency Services on Saturday also revoked the NOC issued to Diaz Pool Club and Bar at Anjuna as the fire extinguishers installed in the establishment were found to be inadequate, said divisional fire officer Shripad Gawas.
A notice was issued to Nitin Wadhwa, the partner of the club, he said in the order.
Campaigning at Chimbel village near Panaji in support of his party's Zilla Panchayat election candidate, Aam Aadmi Party leader Kejriwal said the nightclub fire at Arpora happened because of the "corruption of the Pramod Sawant-led state government."
"Why this fire incident happened? I read in the newspapers that the nightclub had no occupancy certificate, no building licence, no excise licence, no construction licence or trade licence. The entire club was illegal but still it was going on," he said.
"How could it go on? Couldn't Pramod Sawant or anyone else see it? I was told that hafta (bribe) was being paid," the former Delhi chief minister said.
A person can not work without bribing officials in the coastal state, Kejriwal said, alleging that officers, MLAs and even ministers are accepting bribes.
