It is more than three weeks since Sadvi Pragya
has been arrested for allegedly masterminding the Malegon blasts of September.
Since then, the 'secular' brigade including a section of the mainstream media
has been going berserk on 'Hindu terrorism' and 'saffron terrorism'.
The 'secular' brigade is so prejudiced that
they have deliberately forgotten to debate and report about the Assam serial
blasts, which was one of the severest in the last four and half years of the
UPA's utter misrule.
.
In Sadvi's case, she has been under police custody, subjected to lie-detecting,
brain-mapping, narco-analysis and forensic tests. But despite all that, the
police are still to nail her.
Now, the Court has sent her to judicial custody
and the police are going to subject her again to narco-analysis. After the
court sent her to judicial custody, suddenly some 'eye-witnesses' are produced
through 'media-leaks' with regard to her alleged conversation with the main
accused Ramji! Had the police been able to get at least a small thread of
evidence from Sadvi, on her possible involvement in the blasts from earlier
tests conducted on her, there would be some justification in extending her
custody and subjecting her for second round of narco-tests. But, as there
was not even an iota of evidence against her, the Court could have released
her at least on conditional bail.
The 'saffron terror' was invented in Kandhamal,
Orissa, when the native ST Kandhas involved in a conflict with the converted
SC Panas. A social conflict was turned into a communal strife by the Christian
militants and hired Maoists by murdering a Hindu Swamiji along with his four
disciples including a Sadvi. Immediately after the retaliatory attacks by
the tribal Kandhas, the 'secular' brigade coined the term 'saffron terror'
and since then the vituperative campaign has been going on.
A Christian nun was brought into the picture
claiming that she was raped by a 'saffron mob' of 30 to 40 people. After making
the allegation she absconded and the Church and the Catholics demanded a CBI
probe and approaching the SC for the same.
Despite the Supreme Court refusing to sanction
a CBI enquiry and asking her to cooperate with Orissa police in identifying
the rapists from among the apprehended persons, she has not bothered to honour
the SC's directions. Instead she is giving sob stories through the media.
Till date the Orissa police have not bothered
to arrest the nun on charges of contempt of court. The refusal to cooperate
with the Orissa police leaves the room open for conjectures. The Padhire,
who has been with her for quite sometime till the date of crime, and who has
been actively taking part in TV debates maligning the Hindu outfits, has also
not helped the police in identifying the culprits. In this context, both of
them (Padhire & nun) need to be subjected to lie-detector and brain-mapping
tests.
A simple comparison of the two cases (Hindu
Sadhvi & Christian nun) conveys a lot of meaning and the squalid state
of affairs in the UPA government. The law would take its own course, they
say, but the law should not take such a discriminatory course in a democracy!
