to follow this policy of indifference? Utpal Kumar talks to two 

well-known experts from Gilgit-Baltistan 

To anyone not knowing much about him, Senge Hasnan 

Sering would appear to be an easy-going person with a big 

smile on his face. The president of the Institute of Gilgit- 

Baltistan Studies in Washington, DC, he is upright, punctual 

and greets you with a warm namaskar. But underneath this 

gentle demeanour is a hurt Sering has been carrying for years. 

“India could have done more for us,” he says. Prod him a 

little, and he adds: “Constitutionally and legally, Pakistan- 

Occupied Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan are still being claimed 

by New Delhi. And this claim has been recognised by the 

international community. This is the reason why Islamabad 

hasn’t been able to take the unilateral decision to formally 

merge this region with Pakistan. The Indian Government 

should have used this legal sanctity to its advantage.” 

At this point, Mumtaz Khan, director of the International 

Centre of Peace and Democracy in Toronto, steps in. It’s 

India’s policy that forced them to look westward. They knew 

Delhi won’t be doing anything. If India doesn’t even talk 

about this region, then how can people of Gilgit-Baltistan say 

they would be part of this country? Pakistan, for wrong or 

right reasons, has always been there,” he says. 

The hurt is obvious. Ever since Pakistan wilily captured 

this part of Kashmir in 1947-48, the region hasn’t figured much 

on India’s political radar. Instead, Delhi seems to have made 

the sanctity of the LoC an article of faith, though Islamabad 

continues to breach it at the first given opportunity. Even the 

media hardly talks about it. Interestingly, while weather reports 

of PTV talk in detail about Srinagar and Gulmarg, the Indian 

media keeps a steady silence over Gilgit, Skardu and 

Muzaffarabad, except when it talks about Pakistan-sponsored 

terrorist camps being run in the region. Maybe we have taken 

Jawaharlal Nehru’s “not-a-blade-of-grass” comment too 

seriously. 

This moronic status quo could have continued but for the 

ominous entry of the dragon. There are reports in Pakistani 

newspapers that Islamabad has agreed to lease Gilgit-Baltistan 

to Beijing for 50 years. This has alarmed Delhi, which now 

realises that the land where not a blade of grass grows is 

actually the region where most Asiatic or even non-Asiatic 

empires — including the British and the Soviet — played 

some sort of Great Game for centuries. With a new player in 

sight, eyeing not only the resource-rich Persian Gulf but also 

threatening the interests of India and the US, particularly the 

former, Delhi seems to be in a fix. It’s, however, on the Kashmir 

Great game in Kashmir 

-Utpal Kumar 

issue that the country appears to be more worried. 

With Pakistan allegedly ready to swap its role to take the 

backseat as China exerts itself as a major player in the Kashmir 

issue, India can’t afford to miss the Gilgit-Baltistan bus this 

time. At least that’s what Sering and Khan believe. Over to the 

two experts on Chinese strategic grandstanding, Indian 

ruinous restraint, Pakistani duplicitous expediency and the 

ongoing human rights violation in Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir. 

What’s your take on the increased Chinese activities in 

Gilgit-Baltistan? 

China has been involved with the region since the early 

1950s and the 1960s. First, it occupied 5,180 sq km of Gilgit- 

Baltistan which Pakistan gifted it in the 1960s. And then in the 

1970s, it started working on infrastructure, building roads 

through Gilgit-Baltistan into Pakistan’s Karakoram Highway. 

Since then, there have been trade activities and military 

movements between China and Pakistan through this region. 

There were also reports of Pakistani missiles being transported 

through this highway. So, it has been a strategic route used 

by Beijing for a long time. 

In the past 10 years, however, China has realised the need 

to exploit the resources of West Asia as well as enhance its 

military/strategic relationship with the Muslim world. And it’s 

Gilgit-Baltistan that can provide it a short, safe and quick 

access to Iran, Afghanistan and Arab countries. No wonder, 

the Chinese are now talking about spending $16-18 billion on 

a rail line between Pakistan and China through Gilgit-Baltistan. 

They have built more than 20 tunnels to quicken the time 

needed to transport humans as well as goods — both civilian 

and military — between Pakistan and China. It is expected 

that when this whole road and rail transportation is completed, 

it will take less than three days to cover the distance between 

Beijing and the Persian Gulf, whereas right now it takes about 

two-three weeks. It will allow Beijing to build a strong 

economic and military/strategic alliance with the Arab world. 

Also, China is working on increasing the influence of the 

Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) and is offering 

membership to other countries. Maybe one day it will be 

extended to Arab countries. 

There are reports in Pakistani newspapers that Islamabad 

has agreed to lease Gilgit-Baltistan to Beijing for 50 years. 

Is it true? How is it going to impact the region? 

Like many others we too have read these reports. 

Incidentally, it hasn’t been denied by any side, 

Government or non-Government, military or civilian. This 

is strange as they could have just denied the report, especially 


Great game in Kashmir ... (contd.) 

as it has come from a leading American think tank. Also, 

Pakistan’s military chief Ashfaq Parvez Kayani has recently 

said that the two countries are starting a strategic programme 

— the Pakistan-China Strategic Programme for Gilgit-Baltistan 

— in June this year. Eventually it will enable China to have 

more military presence in the region. 

China does understand that having control over Gilgit- 

Baltistan is important to safeguard its economic and military 

interests in east Turkistan and Tibet, besides having more 

access to the Persian Gulf and Afghanistan. And, of course, 

this will help tighten noose over India. 

Has it something to do with growing rift between America 

and Pakistan? 

Pakistan tries in its own way to play China against the US 

— and vice versa. But Beijing is pragmatic and believes in 

pursuing a long-term goal. There are reports that China 

eventually wants to transform the SCO into an Asian NATO. 

One also needs to understand that these are the issues of 

mutual interest for Iran, Pakistan and China. Iran is isolated 

and the way out of isolation is getting help from China. Beijing 

wants the Persian Gulf for its strategic and economic growth. 

As for Pakistan, it is playing the game to extract benefits from 

the US by using the China card and vice versa. So, Gilgit- 

Baltistan has today become the focal point of a new ‘Great 

Game’ being played in the region. 

How are the people of POK reacting to the Chinese 

presence? 

We should first understand the perspective of the people 

of the region, its history and the nature of Pakistan’s control 

and its use of this territory for terrorism against India. Before 

2005, POK was a closed territory. During this time China wasn’t 

involved with it. But after 2007, Chinese role increased in the 

area, particularly after negotiations between India and Pakistan 

during the Musharraf era entered into a more serious phase. 

China was alarmed by these developments and didn’t want 

complete breakthrough on the issue. As a result, we witnessed 

a shift in the Chinese policy vis-à-vis Kashmir as it started 

issuing visa on a separate sheet of paper. Also, Beijing started 

calling POK an integral part of Pakistan. 

In 2007-08, China jumped onto a reconstruction 

bandwagon in Gilgit-Baltistan and signed almost 72 projects 

with Pakistan. Such reconstruction activities, however, are 

just a Chinese excuse to control the region. China does 

understand the importance of POK in politico-strategic terms. 

Now, as the crises have deepened in Pakistan, whether political, 

economic or strategic, China is alarmed. Tomorrow Pakistan 

might disintegrate, and China could find India in control of 

POK, thanks to its historical, constitutional and cultural claims. 

So, in order to prevent such eventualities, China has registered 

its presence. If Islamabad disintegrates, Beijing is there to 

question Delhi’s claims. 

There are two schools of opinion in POK: One is nationalist, 

and the other is pro-Pakistan. Of course, the latter will say 

what Islamabad will dictate, but the nationalists have a mind 

of their own. They have sent protest letters to China when it 

started giving stapled visas to those belonging to Jammu & 

Kashmir, saying it should do the same for POK. So, the 

nationalists are quite concerned with the increasing influence 

of China. 

What role do you expect from India? 

India has a strong legal case. It should, therefore, bridge 

the gap between Delhi and the people of POK. Also, it needs 

to understand that it can’t be ignored. Those who don’t want 

to be a part with India, they have to talk to India. Those who 

want to merge with India, they have to talk to India. And even 

those who want to be independent will have to talk to India. 

As for Pakistan, it only claims to provide a moral and diplomatic 

support to the region and its people. That’s what the UN 

resolution means when it calls Pakistan an outsider. So, this 

attitude that we have developed in the past 64 years that we 

will not talk to India or we will only talk through Pakistan 

won’t work. Pakistan is just a middleman. And it doesn’t want 

the issue to be resolved. 

But to blame people is not right. It’s India’s policy that 

forced them to look towards Pakistan. They knew that India 

won’t do anything. If Delhi doesn’t even talk about this region, 

then how can people of POK say we would be part of India? 

Even today many political activists are in jail, but they don’t 

expect India to stand up for them. This country has to perform 

its responsibilities — moral, legal, constitutional and even 

economic. It can give students access to its universities; it 

can admit patients to its hospitals. India can have trade with 

Gilgit-Baltistan. 

Do you find any change in global perception regarding 

POK? 

To be frank, in the past 10 years whatever changes we 

have seen at the international level, they are mainly because 

of China. Otherwise, nobody cared about us. Even India 

wasn’t bothered about the region. 

The fact is that from early times, this region has been 

strategically important. The valleys between the Karakoram- 

Hindukush mountains were closely contested by the empires 

of the Persian Gulf, West Asia, Central Asia, South Asia, China 

and even Russia. That’s what the British realised: They worked 

hard to keep the Russians out of it. Khunjerab Pass (in Gilgit), 


Great game in Kashmir ... (contd.) 

for instance, is today called the Khyber Pass of China, 

underlining the fact that it is as important for Beijing as Khyber 

Pass was for the British. 

In 2003-2004, for instance, when we talked to Congressmen 

or think tanks in the US, they would just ask us for a cup of tea 

and there would be no follow up. The same was the case with 

Indians. We met so many Indian researchers, professors, 

politicians, etc, but nothing concrete came out. Thankfully, 

the attitude has changed in the past five-six years. 

What about human rights violations in the region? 

Human rights violations are at different levels. At the 

political level, we don’t have any freedom of political activity, 

voice or expression. Local people aren’t even allowed to 

participate in elections. We are ruled by political masters in 

Islamabad. Intimidation is very much there. The media has 

been particularly under attack in the last two years. Situation 

hasn’t been so bad even during Musharraf’s time. It’s no 

better for political activists: Babajan Hunzai, Manzoor Parwana, 

Abdul Hamid Khan, among others — they all have been treated 

shabbily. In many cases, terrorism charges have also been 

filed against them. 

Then there are violations at the cultural level. The identities 

of the Gilgits, Baltis, Wakhis, Khowars, etc, have existed for 

thousands of years. They are proud of their culture, their 

land, their identity. Suddenly, the Wahaabi movement is 

threatening to uproot the indigenous culture. 

Also, there are violations at the economic level. Our natural 

resources, the decisions over how to exploit them, or how to 

generate revenue — all these are decided by Islamabad. All 

our means of production and revenue are controlled by central 

authorities. Our transit routes are exploited by China and 

Pakistan. Revenue from the Khunjerab Pass custom checkpost 

goes to Islamabad. Nothing at all is shared with Gilgit- 

Baltistan. 

You have worked for the revival of the local script. Has it 

made any change? 

Our local scripts are fighting a losing battle against the 

Government-imposed Urdu. We experimented with Persian/ 

Arabic languages, but it didn’t work. When I was in the ninth 

grade I got in touch with Tibetans who provided money for 

the project and that’s how we brought up signboards in our 

local script. If you want to grab attention, you must start with 

a signboard. That’s what we tried to do. Also, this is what 

would make Skardu Bazaar different from, say, Peshawar and 

Karachi. 

But since I (Sering) was connected with Tibetans, it 

became a huge issue. As I worked within the framework of 

pan-Tibetanism, it annoyed many. I started getting angry 

letters, saying culture was good but I must not forget that I 

was a Muslim first. One Prof Fateh Malik, then chairman of 

the National Language Board, came all the way to Skardu to 

register his protest, saying I belonged to the Muslim ummah 

and Urdu — and not my local script — was my present! Also, 

the fact that I worked with Tibetans annoyed the power that 

be in Pakistan as it not only challenged their two-nation theory 

but also could weaken their case in POK and Gilgit-Baltistan. 

So, I had to stop my work. And I realised that till the moment 

there is a political guarantee and a constitutional setup, we 

can’t save our identity, culture. First, we needed a political 

identity, a constitutional system to save our culture. So, the 

real issue — the issue that comes before culture, language — 

is our politico-administrative identity and our freedom from 

Pakistan. 

How do people in POK see the rise of Imran Khan? 

Imran Khan is one of the Taliban without a beard. He is 

very much the extension of the Pakistan Army. There’s a 

famous female activist in Pakistan who recently said that the 

women of that country would fear the day Imran Khan would 

come to power. Minorities fear the day he would come to 

power. The disputed areas fear the day he would come to 

power. 

Imran Khan’s emergence is a lesson for the West, which 

erroneously thinks that if someone drinks or has an open 

relationship with the opposite sex, he is a liberal. In Pakistan, 

if you want to find a real liberal, ask him five questions: 

About India, Kashmir, China, Taliban and America. The 

person on the extreme left and the right would have the same 

answers. So, there is no liberal community in Pakistan. Here 

there is no difference between a Bhutto and a Mullah Omar. 

They all work for the Army and Islam. They are all same.

Hinduism's never-ending journey 

-Swami Vivekananda 

Three religions now stand in the world that have come 

down to us from time prehistoric — Hinduism, Zoroastrianism 

and Judaism. 

They have all received tremendous shocks and all of them 

prove by their survival their internal strength. But while 

Judaism failed to absorb Christianity and was driven out of its 

place of birth by its all-conquering daughter, and a handful of 

Parsees is all that remains to tell the tale of their grand religion, 

Hinduism took a different journey. Sect after sect arose in 

India that seemed to shake the religion of the Vedas 

to its very foundations; but like the waters of the seashore in 

a tremendous earthquake, it receded for a while only to return 

in an all-absorbing flood, a thousand times more vigorous, 

and when the tumult of the rush was over, these sects were all 

sucked in, absorbed and assimilated into the immense body 

of the mother faith. 

From the high spiritual flights of the Vedanta philosophy, 

of which the latest discoveries of science seem like echoes, to 

the low ideas of idolatry with its multifarious mythology, the 

agnosticism of the Buddhists, and the atheism of the Jainas, 

each and all have a place in Hinduism. 

The question arises: Where is the common centre to which 

all these widely diverging radii converge? Where’s the 

common basis upon which all these seemingly hopeless 

contradictions rest? 

Hindus have received their religion through revelation, 

the Vedas. They hold that the Vedas are without beginning 

and end. It may sound ludicrous to this audience how a book 

can be without beginning or end. But by the Vedas no books 

are meant. They mean the accumulated treasury of spiritual 

laws discovered by different persons in different times. Just 

as the law of gravitation existed before its discovery, and 

would exist if all humanity forgot it, so is it with the laws that 

govern the spiritual world. The moral, ethical and spiritual 

relations between soul and soul and between individual spirits 

and the father of all spirits were there before their discovery, 

and would remain even if we forgot them. 

The discoverers of these laws are called rishis, and we honour 

them as perfected beings. Some of the very greatest of them 

were women. Here it may be said that these laws as laws may 

be without end, but they must have had a beginning. The 

Vedas teach us that creation is without beginning or end. 

Science is said to have proved that the sum total of cosmic 

energy is always the same. Then, if there was a time when 

nothing existed, where was all this manifested energy? Some 

say it was in a potential form in God. In that case God is 

sometimes potential and sometimes kinetic, which would make 

him mutable. Everything mutable is a compound, and 

everything compound must undergo that change which is 

called destruction. So God would die, which is absurd. There 

never was a time when there was no creation. 

If I may be allowed to use a simile, creation and creator are 

two lines, without beginning and without end, running parallel 

to each other. God is the ever active providence, by whose 

power systems after systems are being evolved out of chaos, 

made to run for a time and again destroyed. 

Here I stand and if I shut my eyes, and try to conceive my 

existence, “I”, “I”, “I”, what is the idea before me? The idea of 

a body. Am I, then, nothing but a combination of material 

substances? The Vedas declare, “No”. I am a spirit living in a 

body. I am not the body. The body will die, but I shall not die. 

Here am I in this body; it will fall, but I shall go on living. I had 

also a past. The soul was not created, for creation means a 

combination which means a certain future dissolution. If then 

the soul was created, it must die. Some are born happy, enjoy 

perfect health, with beautiful body, mental vigour and all wants 

supplied. Others are born miserable, some are without hands 

or feet, others again are idiots and only drag on a wretched 

existence. Why, if they are all created, why does a just and 

merciful God create one happy and another unhappy, why is 

he so partial? Nor would it mend matters in the least to hold 

that those who are miserable in this life will be happy in a 

future one. Why should a man be miserable even here in the 

reign of a just and merciful God? 

A Hindu believes that he is a spirit. Him the sword cannot 

pierce; him the fire cannot burn; him the water cannot melt; 

him the air cannot dry. A Hindu believes that every soul is a 

circle whose circumference is nowhere, but whose centre is 

located in the body, and that death means the change of this 

centre from body to body. Nor is the soul bound by the 

conditions of matter. In its very essence it is free, unbounded, 

holy, pure, and perfect. 

The human soul is eternal and immortal, perfect and 

infinite, and death means only a change of centre from one 

body to another. The present is determined by our past 

actions, and the future by the present. The soul will go on 

evolving up or reverting back from birth to birth and death to 

death. The Vedas teach that the soul is divine, only held in the 

bondage of matter; perfection will be reached when this bond 

will burst, and the word they use for it is therefore, mukti — 

freedom, freedom from the bonds of imperfection, freedom 

from death and misery. 

Vivekananda’s speech at Chicago in 1893 



Govt sponsored loot of Hindu Temples - Foreign writer opens our eyes 

The Hindu Religious and Charitable Endowment Act of 

1951 allows the State Governments to take over Hindu Temples 

and maintain complete control over their properties. It is 

claimed that they can sell the temple assets and properties 

and use the money in any way they choose. 

A charge has been made by a foreign writer, Stephen 

Knapp, in a book, Crimes Against India and the Need to Protect 

Ancient Vedic Tradition published in the United States and it 

makes shocking reading. 

Hundreds of temples in centuries past have been built in 

India by devout rulers and the donations given by devotees 

have been used for the benefit of the (other) people. This 

letter is what has been happening currently under an intrusive 

law. 

It would seem, for instance, that under a Temple 

Empowerment Act, about 43,000 temples in Andhra Pradesh 

have come under government control and only 18 per cent of 

the revenue of these temples have been returned for temple 

purposes, the remaining 82 per cent being used for purposes 

unstated. 

Even the world famous Tirupati Tirumala Temple has not 

been spared. According to Knapp, the temple collects over 

Rs 3,100 crore every year. The author tells that as much as 85 

per cent of this is transferred to the State Exchequer, much of 

which goes to causes that are not connected with the Hindu 

community. Was it for that reason that devotees make their 

offerings to the temples? 

Another charge that has been made is that the Andhra 

Government has also allowed the demolition of at least ten 

temples for the construction of a golf course. Imagine the 

outcry, writes Knapp, if ten mosques had been demolished. 

It would seem that in Karanataka, Rs 79 crore were collected 

from about two lakh temples and from that amount temples 

received only Rs seven crores for their maintenance. Muslim 

madrassas and Haj subsidy of Rs 59 crore and churches about 

Rs 13 crore were given. Because of this, Knapp writes, 25 per 

cent of the two lakh temples or about 50,000 temples in 

Karnataka will be closed down for lack of resources, and he 

adds: The government continues to do this is because people 

have not stood up to stop it. 

Knapp then refers to Kerala where, funds from the 

Guruvayur Temple are diverted to other government projects 

denying improvement to 45 Hindu temples. Land belonging 

to the Ayyappa Temple, apparently has been grabbed and 

church encroaches are occupying huge areas of forest land, 

running into thousands of acres, near Sabarimala. 

And to top it all, Knapp says that in Orissa, the state 

government intends to sell over 70,000 acres of endowment 

lands from the Jagannath Temple, the proceeds of which would 

solve a huge financial crunch brought about by its own 

-Dr Kailash Chandra 

mismanagement. 

Says Knapp: Why such occurrences are so often not 

known is that the Indian media, especially the English television 

and press, are often anti-Hindu in their approach, and thus 

not inclined to give much coverage, and certainly no 

sympathy, for anything that may affect the Hindu community. 

Therefore, such government actions that play against the 

Hindu community go on without any attention attracted to 

them. 

Says Knapp: Nowhere in the free, democratic world are 

the religious institutions managed, maligned and controlled 

by the government, thus denying the religious freedom to the 

people of the country. But it is happening in India. Government 

officials have taken control of Hindu temples because they 

recognise the indifference of Hindus, they are aware of the 

unlimited patience and tolerance of Hindus. 

Many Hindus are sitting and watching the demise of their 

culture. They need to express their views loud and clear. It is 

time someone asked the Government to lay down all the facts 

on the table so that the public would know what is happening 

behind its back. Temples are not for looting under any name.

Forgotten : The man who won us Tawang 

In 1951, Major Bob Khathing commanded a force of 200 

soldiers and re-established India’s sovereignty over Arunachal 

Pradesh, much to the annoyance of Jawaharlal Nehru. Sidharth 

Mishra profiles his life and work on his 100th birth anniversary 

Sixty-four years after Independence, it seems we have 

consigned to the dustbin of history some of our freedom 

fighters and stalwarts who played a sterling role in knitting 

the country together. Ironically, the discourse has been 

confined to the positive role played by Sardar Vallabhbhai 

Patel and, of course, the fallacies of Nehruvian policy. In the 

process, the contributions of a few great men do not even 

make it to the footnote of our mainstream history. Blame it on 

the lack of official acknowledgment of their work and, of course, 

the failure of intellectuals, rooted in their respective 

ideological moorings, to initiate an independent research to 

unveil the truth. 

One such initiative has been taken by a retired Indian Air 

Force Wing Commander, Unni G. Kartha. As a cadet of the 

National Defence Academy in 1966, Kartha was impressed by 

an instructor who was the nephew of Maj Ralengnao (Bob) 

Khathing. “The same kind of man, with the same genes, simply 

an incredible, resilient, unstoppable, hardcore soldier,” recalls 

Kartha. 

“The first decade of my soldiering was in the Northeast,” 

says Kartha, who in 1972-73 had the opportunity to fly around 

the region with another unusual personality, Murkot Ramunny. 

A Malayali like Kartha, and also an Air Force veteran albeit 

from World War II, Ramunny was then Chief Secretary of 

Nagaland. “I first heard of Bob in 1972-73 from Ramunny. 

Being 22-year-old then, I was a Dakota and Mi-4 helicopter 

pilot based in Jorhat, Chabua (both in Assam) and Chakabama 

(in Nagaland). Ramunny was like Khathing, a paladin of 

another era, those who had joined the Indian Frontier 

Administrative Service (IFAS) and to whom all the good things 

about the northeastern States can be attributed to,” says 

Kartha. After retiring from the force, Kartha attempted to write 

the story of these unforgettable men who helped integrate 

the seven sisters of the Northeast into the Indian mainstream. 

One such story is about re-establishing, after Independence, 

Indian sovereignty in the North East Frontier Agency (NEFA). 

Here comes in the role of Maj Khathing and his guardian 

angel, Jairamdas Daulatram, about whom historical references 

are limited to him being a representative from Sindh and later 

East Punjab in the Constituent Assembly. It was, however, 

after Independence — during his tenure as the Governor of 

Assam between 1950 and 1956 — that he played the role of 

being a nation-builder, though largely unacknowledged by 

the Government of India. One such initiative was to re-establish 

India’s sovereignty over what is today identified as Arunachal 

Pradesh. 

-Sidharth Mishra 

In the autumn of 1951, Maj Khathing from the IFAS, then 

working as an assistant political officer, was summoned by 

Assam Governor Daulatram. “Bob, do you know where 

Tawang exists?” Daulatram asked. “No sir,” Bob answered. 

“He who controls Tawang shall control the Northeast,” 

Daulatram said, further asking a question: “Do you think the 

Chinese should control it?” Bob answered the way he alone 

could have: “No sir.” 

Thereafter, the Governor opened up, “Neither the Centre 

nor I has the ability to get the Commander-in-Chief, Field 

Marshal Roy Boucher, to agree to a military expedition for this 

task. We need someone to do it quietly. Keeping in mind your 

war records, I cannot think of a better man.” Bob readily agreed. 

Daulatram, a veteran of several struggles, could not have made 

a mistake in choosing the man who could have fulfilled his 

nationalistic desires. 

An envious record 

Khathing was born on February 28, 1912, in Manipur’s 

Ukhrul district. In 1939, when World War II started, he enrolled 

in the Army and was sent to Dehradun. Commissioned into 

the 9/11 Hyderabad Regiment (now Kumaon Regiment), he 

had 

KS Thimayya (later Army Chief) as his company 

commander and TN Raina (also to become the Army Chief) as 

fellow subaltern. After the war was over, Khathing was awarded 

the Military Cross and made a Member of the British Empire 

(MBE). 

What was so exemplary in Khathing’s records that caught 

Daulatram’s attention? As per the details collected by Kartha, 

after the Japanese had blocked the Burma road, the British 

Army formed a guerrilla outfit called Victor Force, using the 

missionary-educated tribals of Nagaland. Its task was to use 

topography and the jungles as its cover, live off the land and 

operate 100 to 150 miles deep inside the enemy territory to cut 

the Japanese supply and communication lines, to inflict heavy 

casualties on the enemy and act as a screen for the then 

retreating British Army from Burma. Capt Khathing was sent 

to command the Victor Force in the Ukhrul area. He shed his 

army tunic, shaved his head like a typical Tangkhul tribesman 

with a thick mane running down the middle of his scalp, 

Mohawk style. On his back he carried a basket with dried 

salted meat and concealed his gun in his Tangkhul shawl. It is 

believed that while in command of Victor Force between 1942 

and 1944, he killed more than 120 Japanese soldiers. 

After appointing Maj Khathing as a serving officer of 2, Assam 

Rifles, the Governor allowed him to collect Rs 25,000 from the 

treasury and requisition any stores or personnel he felt 

necessary for the expedition. Khathing asked the Governor to 

give two months to conclude the operation. Daulatram, 

however, gave him just 45 days. 


Forgotten : The man who won us Tawang ... (contd.) 

Fast but not furious 

Before we go any further, a small flashback is necessary. 

In 1903, alarmed by the Chinese and Russian influence in 

Tibet, Col Francis Younghusband of the British Army led a 

military expedition to subdue Thubten Gyatso, the 13th Dalai 

Lama (predecessor of the current one). Thubten took asylum 

in China. In 1914, Henry McMahon, the then British Foreign 

Secretary, finally managed Thubten’s envoy to come to Simla 

to sign a free trade agreement between Tibet and India. They 

also signed a treaty demarcating the southern boundary of 

Tibet. 

Under the Simla agreement, the border between India and 

Tibet had three buffer kingdoms — Nepal, Sikkim and Bhutan. 

East of Bhutan was a large stretch of sparsely populated and 

utterly inhospitable land, referred to as the Dirang Dzong of 

Tawang. Dzong, in Tibetan, stands for fort. It officially became 

the North East Frontier Agency in 1954 and Arunachal Pradesh 

still later. Tawang, which is clearly south of McMahon line, 

became a contentious territory only in 1951, when China 

advanced into Tibet and the ruler of Tawang decided to pay 

allegiance to the Chinese-backed Tibetan authority in Lhasa. 

To make his men battle-ready, Khathing got down to arranging 

stores and arms. What he got from the army stores was brown 

US Army-issue Angola shirts, which he accepted, though they 

were mostly of awkward sizes. He travelled to Chabua and 

Dinjan where the US Air Force had left behind large metal 

containers of stores when they withdrew their operations six 

years ago. There were hundreds of containers kept in safe 

custody of the Army and the Air Force. When he broke open 

these containers, he found camping gear, tents, Irwing Jackets, 

woollen gloves and socks, inners, just about everything that 

he wanted for his expeditionary force. He got them repacked 

into four of the same containers and had them transported to 

the Tinsukia railway station, from where he sent them to 

Tezpur via Guwahati — this was the only road and rail crossing 

across the Brahmaputra river. 

Bob himself caught a routine ferry from Dibrugarh to Majuli 

island and crossed over to the north bank of the river on 

elephant back. Once across the river, he requisitioned an old 

war surplus jeep from a British tea planter and drove down to 

Tezpur, arriving several days before the men and material 

actually arrived there. 

At Tezpur he made arrangements for around 200 mules 

and donkeys, 400 odd porters from the plains, and another 

200 from the hills. He also requisitioned 10 odd tailors and 

cobblers to go with him on the expedition. He procured food 

supplies locally. As the men and material arrived, he moved 

his base camp to a large clearing at Lokra, about 20 km north 

of Tezpur. 

For three weeks he drilled his men and took them on long 

endurance runs, carried out rifle shooting practice. He formed 

small teams of porters, each hundred men, in charge of a Naik 

of the Assam Rifles, and sent them with the men and animal 

ported packed stores in relays to establish forward camps. He 

also sent scouts towards Tawang to not only reconnoitre 

easy mountain trails, but also gather intelligence. 

Due to the sudden nature of Bob’s activities, the expedition 

came to the notice of Major TC Allen, the last British political 

and intelligence officer of the East, based in Dibrugarh. Allen 

visited Bob, who told the former to either come with him to 

Tawang or face arrest till the expedition was over. Allen, a 

keen mountaineer, applied himself with zest as Bob’s secondin-command. 

Expedition begins 

The expedition started from Lokra on January 17, 1951, 

with 200 soldiers. There were no regular roads or bridges over 

the rivers and streams; one just had to walk cross the region. 

Because of physical endurance of troops and staging of camps 

20-25 km apart over inhospitable terrain with just goat tracks, 

Bob was able to move his expeditionary force at great speed. 

Within nine days they were able to reach the Dzong at Bomdila. 

Bob camped right at the closed gates of the Dzong, which 

was held by local feudal lord Katuk Lama, who owed allegiance 

to Dzongpen of Tawang. 

The next day, on January 26, 1951, Bob hoisted the Indian 

flag in front of the Dzong and invited all the inhabitants to a 

feast. The Governor sent a Dakota from Guwahati to survey 

Bob’s progress. The aeroplane flew low over the monastery 

and while the soldiers waved, it did several rounds of the 

monastery. The show of force was enough to make Katuk 

Lama panic and despatch runners to warn all Dzongs towards 

Tawang. 

After three days of rest, the expedition moved out on 

February 1, 1951, to Chakpurpu and Senge Dzong at the base 

of Sela Pass. The five-mile climb to Sela Pass sapped their 

energy and wits. Undaunted, they moved further up to 

Nauranang. On February 4, they camped at Jang village. Two 

locals and some troopers were sent out by Bob to collect 

information and gauge the feelings of the local people towards 

the expedition, besides inviting them for another feast. The 

next day, the headman and elders of Rho Changda and the 

surrounding villages of Jang visited Bob. 

Through an interpreter Bob explained the purpose of his 

visit and advised them not to pay obeisance to Lhasa as they 

were now free citizens of India. Bob then detached Capt Limbu, 

Subedar Bir Bahadur and Jemadar Udaibir Gurung, tasking 

them to scout around the Sela tract to find a militarily defensible 

site and construct a permanent check-post and barracks to 

establish an Indian frontier post. He left behind some of his 

troops as well as porters and advised Limbu to take the help 


Forgotten : The man who won us Tawang ... (contd.) 

of the locals to carry out his task. 

Bob moved his task force further. On February 6, they 

camped at Gyankar and the Dzongpen of Lhau came to meet 

them. They brought presents and offered Bob incentives in 

gold and women if he would go back. Bob smiled and welcomed 

them as fellow citizens of the new republic to enjoy the newfound 

freedom. Next day was Lhosar, the first day of the Year 

of the Iron Horse. In the evening, it snowed heavily and the 

weather turned extremely cold. However, the entire force, 

including the porters, were warm in American war surplus 

clothing due to Bob’s foresight. 

The voice of God 

Bob and his troops reached Tawang on February 7, 1951. 

They spent two days scouting the area for a permanent site 

where both civil and military lines could be laid out with 

sufficient area for a playground. A place was chosen northeast 

of Tawang Monastery and Bob camped his force at that 

location. He put his soldiers and porters to build a semipermanent 

military camp with wooden logs and stones. He 

then sent emissaries to the Dzongpen for cordial meetings. 

For two days there was no reciprocity. The small population 

remained in doors. 

After three days, Bob ordered his men to fire 20 rounds of 

two-inch mortar at the hill sides and fire off 1,000 rounds of 

.303 Ammo in the air. In the closed confines of the mountain, 

on a dark and silent night, the fireworks sounded like 

frightening thunder claps, echoing and reverberating, one 

placating message after another, “The voice of God.” 

The next morning, Bob lined up his troops, fixed bayonets 

and marched his troops up and down Tawang for four hours. 

He also planted the Indian flag in front of the monastery. This 

had the desired effect and the Dzongpen sent emissaries. Bob 

put Maj Allen, his second-in-command, to negotiate armistice 

and draw up a parchment for the formal accession. 

On February 13, as Allen was making no headway, Bob sent 

out patrols to round up the Chhgergans (officials) of the Dzong 

and bring them into the camp. For several days, they were 

wined and dined with great hospitality and respect. Thereafter, 

Bob issued a general order that they were henceforth not to 

accept the suzerainty of the Dzongpens or pay tax or tribute 

to them. 

Finally, on February 20, Bob ran out of patience. He was 

also running out of the time that the Governor had given to 

him. Along with Allen, the Chhgergans and a hundred troops, 

he marched directly to the palace of Nyertsang, the Dzongpen 

of Tawang. He did not meet with any resistance and there was 

no violence. All proceedings were done with traditional 

cordiality and respect. 

Nyertsang wanted to seek advice from the Dalai Lama in 

Lhasa. “What Government? The Chinese army has invaded 

Tibet,” Bob interjected. “Have you ever heard of Col 

Younghusband?” Allen asked Nyertsang. “There is a treaty 

with the Government of Tibet, and as per that treaty the area 

south of the McMahon Line is in India, not Tibet. Tawang is 

part of India. Since India is a republic now, you really have no 

business here,” Allen said. 

Because of his awkwardness in sitting on the cushions 

placed on the ground and because his pistol butt was poking 

his hip, Allen suddenly took out his Smith & Wesson pistol 

and placed it on the ground in front of him. Nyertsang’s visage 

fell immediately; he deflated like an air pillow. Allen took out 

the parchment from his map case and the treaty accepting 

sovereignty of India was signed by Nyertsang without much 

ado. Maj Khathing signed the treaty on behalf of the Republic 

of India. As a token of appreciation, a nazrana of `1,000 was 

paid to Nyertsang. 

Allen renamed the kingdom the North East Frontier 

Agency. Bob appointed Allen as a Lieutenant Governor, 

accountable to the Governor of Assam, to administer the area 

till the Government of India could send its representative. 

Rebuke as reward 

Once the expedition was over, Bob had a final task to do 

— to go back to the Governor and inform him that he had 

carried out his duty without firing a shot (except for the 

fireworks to create the ‘Voice of God’). So, he set out downhill 

to Tezpur with a small retinue, leaving the expeditionary force 

in charge of Allen. The Governor sent a Dakota to pick him up 

from Tezpur and they flew to Delhi to see Jawaharlal Nehru. 

The then Prime Minister was livid. “Who asked you to do 

this?” he vented his anger at the Governor. “I wish you had 

the good sense to consult me before you commissioned this 

colossal stupidity. I want a complete blackout on this incident,” 

he ordered the PMO. 

It took Nehru another four years of tough negotiations 

with Chou En-Lai to come to terms and sign an eight-year 

agreement over Tibet and form the first Sino-Indian pact. In 

April 1954, after the pact, the Government announced its 

sovereignty over NEFA and appointed an Indian overseer 

team to replace Allen. 

The country acknowledges Arunachal Pradesh as an 

integral part of India, but is still to recognise the heroics of the 

expeditionary force. “Bob, however, left many fingerprints and 

footprints to piece together this whole story,” says Kartha. 

Major Khathing went back to IFAS to serve the Union of 

India in consolidating its position in the Northeast in different 

capacities and his contributions were also acknowledged with 

a Padma Shri. The Government, however, is still to de-classify 

his valorous deeds in Tawang. As for Daulatram, he served as 

Governor of Assam till 1956 and was thereafter nominated to 

the Rajya Sabha. 



J&K INTERLOCUTORS REPORT-BLASPHEMOUS TO THE NATION 

A. Report of Interlocutors on J&K by Union Govt. is not 

the outcome of the interactions with more than 700 

delegations, three RTCs, mass meetings conducted by them 

while visiting all the 22 districts, but this is a report as Union 

Govt. and State Govt. required in the name of consensus of 

people and stake holders of state. This is addressed only to 

the separatist mindset of J&K which is in minority in the state 

by the confused, ignorant and compromising attitude of 

Bharat. 

Basis of their thinking in last 64 years are misconceptions 

that they have proposed for themselves. These ill conceived 

propositions are- 

1. Jammu-Kashmir is a unique state having unique 

Geography, unique History and unique problems. When 

problem is unique then solution should also be unique. Jammu- 

Kashmir state is not like all other states of Bharat. 

2. Jammu-Kashmir is Kashmir. Kashmir voice is the real 

will of people of state that is exhibited by NC, PDP and Hurriyat 

3. Due to Muslim majority J&K state, it should be given 

special treatment. 

4. Accession was conditional, there were some preconditions. 

5. Article 370 ensues J&K state some sort of Autonomy 

as well as speciai , status. Article 370 gives state a dual 

character. 

6. Article 370 is not procedural mechanism but basis of 

relationship between centre and Jammu & Kashmir. Delhi 

Accord should be the basis of final resolution. 

7. Jammu & Kashmir is a dispute between Bharat and 

Pakistan. 

8. Kashmir has its own identity that is Kashmiriyat. 

9. Jammu - Kashmir people are not like people of rest of 

Bharat but have dual status. 

10. Parliament and Union institutions should have limited 

application on J&K states and so also on confirmation to the 

wishes of Kashmir. 

B. In their report Interlocutors are making fools of the 

nation: 

1. According to them they do not recommend Pre-1953, 

but call for reviewal of all Union acts and laws extended to 

state after 1952 and further recommends that this reviewal 

should be on the basis proposed by them considering. Dual 

character of J&K state, Dual status of people of J&K and 

Delhi Accord, 1952, as basis of centre - state relationship. 

They talk about 1994 resolution of Parliament on J&K but 

call POK as PCK administered Kashmir, accepts Hurriyat's 

pre-condition for solution that Bha'rat - Pakistan - and both 

regions of J&K should be accepted as stake holders. They 

signified importance of J&K as a bridge between central Asia 

and South Asia. In their approach, Bharat is South Asia and 

Jammu-Kashmir is a bridge not gateway of Bharat to rest of 

the world or Mastak (head) of the Bharat Mata. The resolution 

revolves around much talked Manmohan - Musharaf Pact in 

Track II diplomacy of 2006, agreed for Joint control, shared 

sovereignity, demilitarization, porous irrelevant borders, 

maximum possible autonomy to both of the regions. Reports 

of working groups made by PM in 2006 also have 

recommendations on the above lines, these are again toed by 

interlocutors. 

C. Interlocutors terms Article 370 a special status provided 

to J&K state in our constitution, but at same time recommends 

the word 'Temporary' mentioned in title of Article 370 to be 

deleted and further replaced by word 'Special.' They 

recommend Article 370 to be made permanent and also call 

that no further Parliament laws, amendments should be 

extended to J&K state other than internal security or security 

and vital economic issues. 

D. They accept sense of deprivation, discrimination in 

Jammu and Ladakh, but do not call for 'Delimitation of 

Assembly and Parliament seats' to end manipulated 

domination of Kashmir in state's politics. They even do not 

accept people of Jammu, Ladakh, different groups of refugees 

as stake holder in final resolution. 

There is no discussion about registration of POK people, 

their representation in Parliament and demand of filling 24 

vacant legislative seats kept for people of POK by 10 Lakh 

refugees presently in Jammu. Even there is not a single word 

on fate of most unfortunate 4 lakh peoples of West Pak, 

refugees since 1947. 

E. They claim, the report is to address 'sensitive issue of 

deep rooted feeling of victim hood prevailing in Kashmir valley' 

but do not explain who are responsible for spreading of 

misinformation, creating mistrust between rest of Bharat and 

Kashmir valley, misgovernance in valley, communalizing the 

society of Kashmir, spreading of terrorism, permitting false 

sense of victim hood to be used by 151 and Pakistan against 

Bharat, forced migration and persecution of Kashmir Hindus 

and Sikhs and refugees of 1947 and marginalizing of nationalist 

forces in valley. 

F. In whole of the report not a single word of praise for 

security forces, accepting the role of Army, criticizing 

intentions of Pakistan, but they call AFSPA 'Controversial,' 

Reviewal of Disturbed Area Act, Amendment of PSA as these 

laws are the cause of miseries of most privileged people of 

Bharat those are valley people. 

G. They tried to dilute authority of Bharat over state by 


J&K INTERLOCUTORS REPORT-BLASPHEMOUS TO THE NATION... (contd.) 

giving recommendations: 1. State Govt. should send three 

names with opposition's advice to President, who would accept 

one of them for the post of Governor. 

1. Union quota in administrative service in state is 

presently 50% instead of 66% in other states. They give advice 

for further gradual reduction in favour of state cadre. 

2. They even recommended the use of equal denomination 

in Urdu for words Governor and Chief Minister. 

3. They talked that securing sense of pride, dignity of 

people is their first preference, calling resolution in terms of 

Insaniyat, but they do not utter a single word about 4 lakh 

west Pak refugees who are most unfortunate stateless people 

since 1947, war displaced persons of Jammu living a life of 

misery due to continuous aggressions of Pakistan. 

They even not take into consideration plight of weaker 

sections of the community that are SC, ST and OBC, who are 

not given their due right as provided by Union Constitution. 

I. For dialogue process they recommend that after the 

formation of Constitutional Committee to review the laws 

extended to state after 1952, Dialogue should be started 

simultaneously with Hurriyat groups, later on 'joined by stake 

holders in POK' and then Pakistan also. But they do not 

require to have consultations with Jammu people, Ladakh 

people, Shia Muslims, Gujjar Muslims and refugees of POK 

and West Pak of 1947, Kashmir Hindu migrant of 1990, because 

interlocutors do not accept them genuine stake holders. 

J. There is a question to be answered by legal luminaries 

of the country that by making Article 370 permanent, whether 

J&K would not become a super state in our constitution. 

They call for extension of democratic, statutory, institution 

in J&K but working under the confirmation of Constitution of 

Jammu and Kashmir. 

Even they recommend fresh financial arrangement between 

Union and state Govt. 

K. This would be ultimately reversal of 'process of 

Constitutional integration of Jammu and Kashmir with Bharat' 

started in 1947 and may become cause of disintegration of 

J&K from Bharat and lead to further similar demands of special 

status from so many other parts of the country also.

told the Centre to scrap the ‘goodwill’ delegation travelling 

for Haj pilgrimage. A bench of Justice Aftab Alam said Justice

Select Articles 

Dim prospects for progress : G Parthasarathy, The 

Pioneer, New Delhi, March 1, 2012, p. 6. 

Domestic and foreign policy issues remain unresolved with 

the Government unable to break logjams at home. This doesn’t 

augur well for India. 

After turmoil across the country and in both Houses of 

Parliament over corruption throughout 2011, one was hoping 

that the country and its leaders would be able to get back to 

addressing the serious internal and external problems. 

The inarticulate conservative position : Priyadarshi 

Dutta, The Pioneer, New Delhi, March 3, 2012, p. 9. 

The movement given the opprobrium “conservative” by 

the liberal elite has singularly failed to address the problems 

confronting Indian society under neo-liberalism’s pernicious 

grip. They watch and grumble as the state promotes unbridled 

exploitation of labour, alcoholism and licentious behaviour. 

In India think tanks focus is one national security, 

international relationship, warfare and economics. They may 

think themselves nationalists, but civilisation and culture take 

a backseat in those institutions. 

The change in the life style - not merely in towns but also 

in countryside - threatens not merely Indian values but also 

prospects of sustainable growth. 

Alcoholism has increased by leaps and bound as the 

government gives licences to open more liquor shops. 

Dangerous Liaisons - NGO story in India, Chandan Mitra, 

The Pioneer, Agenda, New Delhi, March 4, 2012, p. 4. 

Having outsourced both policy and much of governance 

to jholawalas, Manmohan Singh’s U-turn on foreign-funded 

NGOs has come too late to be effective. 

The proximity between Christian proselytisers and Maoist 

desperadoes was too blatant to be ignored. But the 

Government, probably on the nudge of some powerful persons 

in Delhi, turned a blind eye. Unlawful conversions continue 

unabated, pitting tribal groups against one another as in 

Odisha’s Kandhamal. The biggest thorn in the missionaries’ 

flesh there was the octogenarian Swami. 

Centre & States both failed to deal with terror : K.P.S. 

Gil, The Tribune, New Delhi, March 12, 2012, p. 9. 

There is no reason to believe that the Centre is in better 

health than some of the States. The record of both the Centre 

and the States in countering terrorism has been less than 

impressive. But States must realise that the Founding Fathers 

of the Constitution had no inkling of the challenges being 

posed by contemporary terrorism. 

Forces starved of funds : Ashok K Mehta, The Pioneer,

riots in India. It’s time to remove artificial ‘pro-secular’ schemes 

that communalise the atmosphere. 

Beware of this Khan : Utpal Kumar, The Pioneer, Agenda, 


Imran Khan’s duplicity is evident on his stand on the 

blasphemy law, which has been used to persecute religious 

minorities. He believes that the law is ‘abused’, refusing to 

blame it per se. 

So, the “Talibanisation of Pakistani politics has gone 

beyond Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. It has reached the Pakistani 

heartland of Punjab, where the two major pro Taliban parties - 

PTI and PML-N - are competing with each other to grab the 

power centre. 

India turns its back on people of Gilgit-Baltistan : KG 

Suresh, The Pioneer, New Delhi, March 19, 2012, p. 9. 

Despite repeated assertions that all of J&K is an integral 

part of India, New Delhi has chosen to ignore atrocities 

Pakistan commits in areas occupied by it, says KG Suresh. 

To begin with, let the Indian media start reporting events 

form PoK and Northern Areas at least on the National pages, 

if not the front pages. 

Yoga is no religion, it’s pure science : OSHO, The Pioneer, 

Agenda, New Delhi, March 25, 2012, p. 5. 

Because ‘religions’ need beliefs. There is no other 

difference between one religion and another; the difference is 

only of beliefs. A Mohammedan has certain beliefs, a Hindu 

certain others, a Christian certain others. The difference is of 

beliefs. Yoga says experience. Just like science says 

experiment, Experiment and experience are both the same. 

The ghastly, cruel face of Islamist terrorism : Barry 

Rubin, The Pioneer, New Delhi, March 27, 2012, p. 9. 

Radicalism is being passed on to the third generation 

through Islamic schools, mosques and indoctrination at home. 

In effect, France and other countries are turning themselves 

into permanently unstable bi-national states. That’s 

dangerous. 

Defending the indefensible : Rajesh Singh, The Pioneer, 


UPA squanders money on populist schemes but is 

niggardly in allocating funds for Defence Forces. 

Our Budget allocation for defence has remained close to 

1.9 per cent of the GDP. This stagnation is due to the failure of 

the defence ministry to aggressively push for more funds. 

‘Pak addicted to anti-India terror use’ : Chidanand 

Rajghatta, The Times of India, New Delhi, March 30, 2012, 

p. 24. 

Washington: Pakistan is addicted to using terrorist groups 

against India and the policy is not going to change any time 

soon, a key Pentagon official told the US congress in a blunt 

and bleak assessment of the situation in the region. 

Return to idealism : Gautam Mukherjee, The Pioneer, 

New Delhi, April 6, 2012, p. 8. 

By declaring a reward for information that can lead to the 

arrest of LeT chief Hafiz Saeed, the US has signalled that it is 

not bereft of good intentions. 

It is now universally recognised that Pakistan has refined 

the techniques of terrorism as an instrument of state policy 

like no other country. It has been described as “the most 

dangerous country in the world” on more than one occasion. 

Raising the stakes : Indrani Bagchi, The Times of India, 


The US bounty has mounted pressure on Pakistan to act 

against Hafiz Saeed. 

Hafiz Seed has never attacked the Pakistani state and has 

been willing to be used against India and America as and 

when the ISI has asked. 

Why Indian intelligence doesn’t work too well in Pak : 

Manimugdha S Sharma & Deeptiman Tiwary, The Times of 

India, New Delhi, April 8, 2012, p. 13. 

Ask an Indian intelligence official about the challenge 

involved in tracking Lashkar-e-Taiba operatives inside 

Pakistan and they all give the same answer. Most officers 

who have served in Pakistan say that India has the capability 

to hit the terror group in Pakistan, but the government doesn’t 

allow such cover actions. “We don’t do covert operations 

like the CIA, M16 and Mossad. This doesn’t mean that we 

don’t have the capability. Given a chance, we could prove 

equal to all these agencies,” says a former officer. 

The 90% : Markandey Katju, The Indian Express, New 

Delhi, April 9, 2012, p. 10. 

The unpleasant truth: 90 per cent of Indians are fools. 

The worst thing in life is poverty, and 80 per cent of our 



people are poor. To abolish poverty, we need to spread the 

scientific outlook. Only then will India shine. 

Shall be dig the well to quench the third? 

Of tragic, muted violence against one’s own people : 

Akhilesh Mithal, The Sunday Guardian, New Delhi, April 

15, 2012, p. 20. 

The government has failed to provide a true democracy in 

many spheres - economy, culture and security included. 

Perhaps change to this poverty stricken land can come only 

from outside. 

The promotion of Hindi proceeds apace costing billions 

of rupees and whole forests are cut down to provide the paper 

to fill in the returns required to be submitted for ‘progress in 

the promotion of Hindi’. The only thing which can be said in 

defence of the government is that language and culture are 

not the only areas where neglect or wrong-headedness prevail. 

IB works for the rulers, not for the public : Madhav 

Nalapat, The Sunday Guardian, New Delhi, April 15, 2012, p. 

6. 

Intelligence Bureau Chief Nehchal Sandhu needs to 

answer seven questions about the functioning of the 

organisation he heads. 

Which ought not to act as the enforcer of the private 

interest of the ruling group rather than as a prime guaranter of 

security for the population as a whole. 

Into the future, boldly : Arun Maira, The Times of India, 


Bottom up growth, not trickle down, will bring about truly 

inclusive development. 

Under this model, power will shift from the Centre to states 

and local bodies. Solutions will be local, not ‘one size fits all’ 

prescriptions designed by experts at the Centre. 

Ambedkar, Sangh and constitutionalism : Shashi 

Shekhar, The Pioneer, New Delhi, April 23, 2012, p. 9. 

By embracing Ambedkar as one of its mascots, Sangh can 

set record of its history straight. 

Had the Congress involved the Rashtriya Swayamsevak 

Sangh into the constitution drafting process, perhaps India 

would not have seen the communal polemics of the past two 

decades. 

Secularism is inverted form of communalism subverted : 

Balbir Punj, The Pioneer, New Delhi, April 23, 2012, p. 8. 

Pandering to minority communalism for votes is sheer 

cynical opportunism. Both Congress and the Left are guilty 

of it. 

This is the type of secularism that India must now suffer, 

with the Congress taking the lead. Against this brand of socalled 

secularism, how does one define rank communalism? 

Are the two any different? 

PM should be cautious : G. Parthasarathy, The Pioneer, 


Gen Kayani knows there is no dearth of Indian bleeding 

hearts given to holding candle light vigils on the Wagah 

border who will see all this as a ‘genuine change of heart’ in 

the Pakistan establishment. Mr Zardari has, therefore, 

evidently been given the go ahead to move slowly in removing 

restrictions on trade and for some movement on people-topeople 

relations. But his Government has been put on notice 

not to get out of line by the Defence of Pakistan Council, a 

group of Pakistan Islamist radicals led by Hafiz Muhammad 

Saeed and backed by the military. 

The path of isolation : Asma Jahangir, The Tribune, New 

Delhi, April 27, 2012, p. 9. 

Pakistan remains in the dog house of the international 

community mainly because its rulers refuse to accept that 

violence and conflict within the country are escalating and 

have serious ramifications for the entire region. 

Pakistan should revisit its foreign policy with its 

neighbours at the regional level and with the US. This exercise 

must be realistic and aimed at improving the quality of life of 

ordinary Pakistanis rather than be tailored to appease the rightwing. 

Book Reviews 

Sam van Schaik : Tibet - A History, Amaryllis, Rs. 695 

Like the storytellers of ancient Tibet, Sam van Schaik gives 

us glimpses of the ‘Greater History’, concentrating only on 

the glorious period of the Tibetan empire, writes Claude Arpi 

Some may say that it is because of the Dalai Lama’s 

popularity, while others may think it is due to the Shangri La 

myth. It remains a fact that the Land of Snows, its spirituality, 

its mystics and magicians, and its history occupy a special 



place in the people’s consciousness. 

Most reporters failed to see the historic and strategic 

importance of the Tibetan plateau: “But what benefit would 

the invader gain from the conquest of 700,000 sq km of rocks, 

sands, and Tibetan glaciers? There is no resource for modern 

industries.” Unfortunately for the Tibetans, Mao and his 

‘Liberation’ Army could see its significance. 

Van Schaik is intelligent enough to call his book “A 

History”, and not “The History”. His knowledge of ancient 

Tibetan history is apparent in his writing. The early chapters 

are devoted on the “Three Religious Kings” who ruled Tibet 

(and parts of Asia) during the 7th-9th century and their 

encounters not only with China’s Tang dynasty, but also India. 

This is what he has done in style. Though Van Schaik 

writes “There is more to Tibet’s history than its relationship 

with China”, the fact remains that Tibet is today a colonised 

nation and its sons and daughters have to immolate themselves 

to be heard outside the People’s Republic of China. This is a 

historical fact.

Ishtiaq Ahmed : The Punjab - Bloodied, Partitioned and 

Cleansed, Rupa & Co, Rs 995 

“The two-nation theory brought the problem of minorities 

into greater prominence than ever before... Mohammed Ali 

Jinnah made desperate efforts to evade the issue by promising 

protection and rights of citizenship to the minorities, but the 

nature of his demand was wholly inconsistent with these 

promises. How could millions of foreigners acquire rights of 

citizenship and equal status with the nationals of Pakistan, 

and if they could, why divide India, why not let Muslims 

continue as nationals of India? Jinnah could find no answer 

to these questions and he was finally compelled to suggest 

an exchange of population. 

Did Ishtiaq Ahmed realised that non-Muslims were not 

welcome in the Islamic state of Pakistan, he should recall that 

only two years ago jaziya was imposed on Sikhs living in the 

tribal areas of Pakistan. They were killed for non-payment. 

The author should accept the fact that for a non-Muslim, 

living in an Islamic state is nothing short of hell. 

- Prafull Goradia and KR Phanda 

The Pioneer, Agenda, New Delhi, April 15, 2012, p. 7. 

Mujahid Hussain : PUNJABI TALIBAN, Pentagon, Price: 

695 

Mujahid Hussain’s views in his book, Punjabi Taliban — 

banned in Pakistan and published in India — were vindicated 

when Governor Salmaan Taseer was assassinated by his own 

bodyguard in January 2011. Taseer was a brave man who 

stood for a liberal, tolerant and progressive Pakistan. But he 

paid for his life for standing up to the blasphemy law and 

countering Taliban. 

Hussain states that by 2011 Pakistan showed clear 

evidence that it would not fight the Taliban and Al Qaeda the 

way the rest of the world wanted it to. “Al Qaeda has emerged 

unconquerable by the Pakistani Army” because of the “shift 

of Punjab’s ‘non-state actors’ from the Pakistan Army to Al 

Qaeda and the reorganisation of these non-state actors as the 

state assets by the military”. Hussain, therefore says, “The 

attack on the Taliban and Al Qaeda will result in the loss of 

country’s biggest province.” 

The most important part of the book talks about the 

relationship between south Punjab and the rise of Sipah-e- 

Sahaba, which has opened a jihadi front against India. 

Hussain laments that Punjab showcased in the Punjabi 

movies of 1960s and 1970s does not exist anymore. Now the 

sounds of music has got drowned by the staccato of bullets 

and loudspeakers in mosques and madarsas (seminaries). 

While the coup against Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, Soviet invasion 

of Afghanistan, Islamic revolution in Iran and Gen Zia-ul-Haq’s 

pro-jihadi policies can be regarded as some of the major 

milestones in Pakistan’s pro-Islamist turn, the author believes 

that the damage done to the socio-religious fabric of Punjab 

and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa is more tragic. 

With its headquarters at Muridke, 30 km from Lahore, 

Lashkar-e-Tayyeba has hundreds of recruitment centres in 

the provincial capital itself. At Muridke’s two townships — 

Mecca and Medina — the followers of Salafi (Wahhabi) sect 

from all over Pakistan come and settle down. They are trying 

to transform the two into model townships of ‘pure’ 

atmosphere, run strictly by the shariah law. Armed Lashkar 

men guard the entrances of these colonies. TV sets are not 

allowed here as they air “vulgar music or satanic worldly talks”. 

Only transistors are allowed for listening to news and 

programmes related to religious education. 

“In DG Khan, there are 185 registered madarsas of which 

90 are Deobandi (with a total of 324 teachers), 84 are Barelvi 

(with a total of 212 teachers), six are Ahl-e-Hadith (107 teachers) 

and five are Fiqh-e-Jafaria (10 teachers).” The end result has 

been both traumatic and terrifying for Punjab and its rich 

cultural heritage. 

Despite numerous evidences, the Government of Punjab 

has strongly denied the existence of Punjabi Taliban. Chief 

Minister Shahbaz Sharif has reportedly claimed that the very 

term is “an insult to the Punjabis”. During a March 17, 2010, 

cabinet meeting, Malik reported said that Punjabi militants 

had joined hands with Waziristan-based Taliban to stage 

attacks inside Punjab. 

The book is a must-read for one and all, particularly in 

India, which has been the victim of Pakistan-promoted 

terrorism for over two decades now.

SAD DEMISE OF PROFESSOR SATISH CHANDRA JI 

It is to inform with great pain and sorrow that Prof. Satish Chandra ji, a youngman 

of 76 years who got moksha on 3-6-2012 at Goa while holidaying with his family, 

was the Honorary editor of “Gaurav Ghosh” a bimonthly magazine devoted to deeper 

study of Hinduism and nationalism with Duties of citizens, published by Sanskrtik 

Gaurav Santhan. 

He was a great educationist, devoted swayam sewak, great thinker and widely 

travelled social worker. After retiring from Delhi University as Senior Reader 

(Associate Professor) from the Deptt. of Political Sciences, he devoted his, whole 

life for social work and also updating the glorious history of our ancient culture by 

serving several organisations as follows: 

1. Vice president intellectual cell, Delhi Pradesh BJP. 

2. Adhyakash and founder member “Baba Saheb Apte Smarak Samiti”. 

3. Adhyaksh - Vidvat Parishad, Delhi Prant, Itihaas Sankalan Yojana. 

4. Adhyaksh - Guru ji Janma Shtabadi Samaroh of Vasant Vihar New Delhi. 

In his death Gaurav Ghosh Parivar has lost a very dedicated worker, great 

educationist, thinker. It will be very difficult rather impossible to fill the gap created 

by his sudden death.
