Dictators such as Adolf Hitler,
Joseph Stalin, Saddam Hussein,
Benito Mussolini are known for their
greed for power and criminality.
When all of them were alive they
used all types of political & military
power to suppress and eliminate their
political opponents with the help of
the secret police. They instilled
social, economic and cultural distress
among the innocent people to maintain
their dictatorship.
Historical records show that all
dictators emerged out of big lies that
people accepted owing to social and
economic frustration and allowed
them to rule their respective countries.
Historical records also show
that these dictators left their respective
countries in social chaos and economic
gaffes. Chairman Mao Tse
Tung, The chairman of the
Communist Party of China famously
said, “Political power grows out of
the barrel of a gun”. After massive
victory in 2019, now the saffron party
has the gun and the bullets in administrative
bodies such as CBI, ED, and
Election Commission so & so on.
In the Indian context, for the last
five years, many fierce tyrants
emerged owing to their affiliation to a
political party that wanted to see
India a “Hindu Country”. The idea of
“Hinduvta was sown by the RSS
leader Vinayak Damodar Savarkar.
Under the Congress government
before 2104, the newly emerged
fierce tyrants were not allowed to
destroy the secular ethos of India as
today is allowed by the higher echelons
of the Bhartiya Janata
Party(BJP). Unprecedented political
power at the center and in most of the
Indian states, the newly born fierce
tyrants gets a strength to vilify and
suppress the members of the marginalized
communities on purpose.
I would like to cite a few examples
of newly born fierce tyrants to
demonstrate the accusations. Giriraj
Singh, who defeated an intellectual
and outspoken for the rights of the
marginalised groups Khanhaiya
Kumar of Jawaharlal Nehru
University, is now a Minister of
Animal Husbandry, Dairy, and
Fisheries in the BJP government said,
“ Those who cannot say Vande
Mataram or cannot respect the
Motherland, the nation will never forgive
them”. Similarly, Giriraj Singh
during his public meeting speech at
Deogarh said, “Those opposing Modi
are looking at Pakistan, and such people
will have place in Pakistan and
not in India”. Prime Minister Modi
did not kick him out of the party
rather awarded him with a new portfolio.
Sakshi Maharaj, a self-proclaimed
saint urged Hindu women to produce
at least 4 children to protect the
Hindu religion. He even took a dig at
the Muslim community saying “The
concept of four wives and forty children
just won’t work in India,”. The
temple was there and will exist forever.
No person will be allowed to keep
even a brick in the name of Babri
mosque”. Such controversial statements
are a regular feature by the BJP
members of Parliament. Very cleverly,
other BJP leaders like Mukhtar
Abbas Naqvi, a Minister of Minority
Affairs, the government of India
asserted that Sakshi Mahraj`s views
are not the views of the party.

Many Fierce
Tyrants in India
Singh was photographed garlanding
the murder accused(India Today 6
July 2018). BJP leader Kailash
Vijayvargiya’sson – and the party’s
MLA in Madhya Pradesh – attacked a
civic body official with a cricket bat,
after a heated argument over a demolition
drive. Maharashtra Congress
MLA Nitesh Rane, son of former CM
Narayan Rane and his supporters
threw mud on the highway engineer
during an inspection of a stretch of
the Mumbai-Goa highway.
The shameful acts of the BJP MPs
and MLAs intend to instill fear and
intimidation among the people of various
castes other than Hindus that if
you do not succumb yourself to our
dictates, be ready for the worst consequences.
A resurgence of Hindu
nationalism built on crazy vendetta is
going to be a bane for the members of
the marginalized communities and
vulnerable groups. Undisciplined
ultra-nationalist, roughnecks, egoistic
and potentially dangerous MPs,
MLAs, and workers of the BJP and
RSS will unleash more atrocities on
the innocent citizens if not stopped. It
means the more you become submissive
the more you will be beaten. The
saffron party has no respect for the
Indian constitution. Justice cannot be
obtained through outdated toothless
laws. The whole judicial system is
working under the thump of the saffron
party hence the citizens of India
should not expect any justice. In that
case, the innocent citizens have left
no choice than to think of an alternate
at the earliest.
It is unfortunate that the RSS that
claims to be a humanitarian service
organization did not utter even a single
word on the beatings of the officers.
The RSS has never even issued
any statement opposing such rustic
behaviors of the BJP leaders. Modi as
a Prime Minister of India, however,
opposed such rustic behavior but
hardly takes stringent action against
such leaders and workers of the BJP.
Modi`s Sabhka Sath, Sab Ka Vikas(
together with all, development for all)
slogan has no meaning at all if such
rustic behavior keeps on getting
moral and political strength from the
central leadership of the BJP.
Rajiv Partap Rudy, a BJP
spokesperson while
debating the 2019budget
on (Republic TV channel
asked his co-panelist to
shut the mouth on asking
a question on the data.
This is how the BJP leaders
and spokespersons
treat the intellectual
debating class. Arrogance
and brutish attitude prevail
in abundance among
the saffron leaders.
Rudy`s arrogant attitude
is: “I do not give a shit
who you are”!
From assassination of Gandhi ji to
beating, humiliating, stigmatizing
and lynching of the members of the
marginalized groups by the saffron
sympathizers very much indicate that
the DNA of the saffron party carries
dictatorial traits. For the past five
years, a common man can observe
that the emergence of fierce tyrants
under the aegis of the saffron party is
on the rise which is, of course, dangerous
for the Indian society. Under
the Modi government India`s
Happiness ranking drops to 140 way
behind Pakistan, China, and
Bangladesh. A common man is bothered
about food, clothing, and shelter.
He or she is least bothered what Modi
ji you have planned long term goals
for the coming 25-30 years. Social
and political instability prevailing in
the country will never allow your
dream of becoming a 5 trillion economy.
There is an urgent need to fix up
these instabilities. Incremental agenda
will derail the process of development
sooner or later.
Today, Modi`s government is boastful
of 5 trillion economy. Who should
not be proud of such a robust economy?
A common man
simply wants jobs, education,
health and roads
to travel, nothing else.
In 2016, NITI Aayog
– Dr Rahul Kumar
Chairman Amitabh
Kant projected that
India would become a
$10-trillion economy by
2032.Today, the same
Amitabh Kant projects
only 5 trillion economy.
Is our so-called intellectuals
speaking on
financial conjectures
and speculations?
While presenting the Union
Budget, interim finance minister
Piyush Goyal claimed. “We are
poised to become a $5 trillion economy
in the next five years and aspire to
become a $10 trillion economy in the
next eight years thereafter,” said
Goyal. $10 trillion is the equivalent
of 705,00,00,000 lakh crore at current
exchange rates.
PHD chamber of Commerce and
Industry, a think tank in New Delhi
organized a programme on “ Rural
India: A Road to US $5 trillion
Economy by 2025. The panelists
argued that in the first 40 years of
independence, the country hardly
grew at 4% and today a 7-8% growth
is the norm which is very much
achievable. In the graph PHD chamber
has already projected GDP 9.87
in 2030 without considering the cascading
effects of the global economy.
According to Confederation of Indian
Industry (CII) India is now set to
become a US$5 trillion economy in
the next five years.
In my opinion, there are two types
of fierce tyrants in the saffron party;
one who thrash people and force
them to succumb to their unlawful,
brutish commandments and others
who confound the people of India
with their spurious intelligence. Modi
Ji, yes the debating class of India is
truly “Professional Pessimists” as
long as you and your administrators,
economists and leaders keep on fudging
the data.
It is a matter of hilarity when
Nirmala Sitharaman, Finance
Minister of India, government of
India proposed “Study in India”
schemes in India to be launched and
urging the international students to
come to India and study. It is like
“Make in India” that did not pick up
foreign investment. For certain people
are going to be deceived again.
National universities and IITs in India
lack quality infrastructure badly.
Delay in announcing ‘Education
Policy’ further, deplete the trust of the
international stakeholders. It is unfortunate
that Modi 1.0 did not announce
even a single new scholarship scheme
for the SCs/STs.
According to a report by UNICEF,
an estimated 8.1 million children are
out of school, the majority of those
belonging to the disadvantaged
groups. The Finance Minister should
first set her house in order. Populist
schemes such as ‘Study in India’,
‘Make in India’ will achieve hardly
anything tangible but surely bad
image for India in the international
arena. The entry of the private players
in the education sector will further
give impetus to deterioration of the
quality. The majority of the private
institutions aims to profit not to provide
equitable & inclusive education
to the students. The PPP model in the
Indian education sector has miserably
failed due to reticence attitude of the
HRD Ministry
I conclude this brief article by urging
the people of India to rise against
many fierce tyrants in India; do not
mortgage the future of sons and
daughters; do not allow further
destruction of democratic ethos; do
not allow to beat you in the daylight;
do not allow them to spoil generations
after generations. Let me
remind the people of India that
Gandhi ji face and philosophy for the
saffron sympathizers in general and
Modi, in particular, is a HOGWASH.
Recently, Modi unveiled the statue of
Lal Bahadur Shastri in Varanasi, the
second Prime Minister of India. Modi
neither respects Jawans nor Kisans’.
Death of Jawans terror attacks
rose by 106 percent in J & K
between 2014-18. In 2017 Modi 1.0
told the Supreme Court of India, over,
12,000 farmerssuicide per year.
These figures are tarrying and alarming.
Bob Menendez rightly said:
“Tyrants and dictators have incited
ethnic and religious minorities for
centuries in order to consolidate
power for themselves”. There is an
urgent need for the people of India to
understand this.
