Subsequently, the Ahmedabad crime branch registered an FIR against Teesta Setalvad바카라masquerading as a 바카라human right activist바카라바카라accusing her specifically of 바카라conjuring, concocting, forging and fabricating facts and documents, including witnesses testimonies, and influencing and tutoring witnesses바카라.
The FIR lodged by inspector D.B. Barad of the Ahmedabad city crime branch against Setalvad and the two ex-IPS officers alleges that they fraudulently passed off forged documents as genuine 바카라with intent to procure conviction of capital punishment바카라.
Dismissed IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt has been accused of making false claims in 2011 that he was present at a meeting at Narendra Modi바카라s then residence on February 27, 2002. He alleged that the erstwhile CM asked bureaucrats to go slow on rioters.
The FIR also charges Bhatt with furnishing forged documents 바카라in order to implicate various persons바카라. The complaint states that the SIT probe revealed he colluded with people who had vested interests, and NGOs and political functionaries who wanted to settle scores by 바카라framing innocent individuals바카라. Bhatt allegedly received incentives for this, the FIR states, while making a case for a detailed investigation. Sreekumar is accused of making false claims in his affidavits before the Godhra inquiry commission.
What the SIT discovered, and was recently endorsed by the Supreme Court, is the tip of an iceberg of a deep-rooted conspiracy by the Left-liberals pack to destabilise institutions, push India into a vortex of a civil war and finally balkanise the country. To achieve its objective, the pack바카라financed by foreign powers바카라wears various masks. Its commissars masquerade as journalists, NGOs claiming to work for the poor, human right activists, social workers and so on. There is a global ecosystem which, besides extending material help, also guides and provides them with a 바카라toolkit바카라.
The 바카라toolkit바카라 used by this 바카라hate India바카라 pack frequently resorts to half-truths and total lies to push its divisive agenda. Way back in 2002, when the Gujarat riots broke following the burning of 59 kar sevaks coming back from Ayodhya, Arundhati Roy wrote a long article, giving a vivid description of the horror of riots. Here are the excerpts (Outlook dated May 6, 2002).
바카라Gujarat, the only major state in India to have a BJP government has, for some years, been the petri dish in which Hindu fascism has been fomenting an elaborate political experiment. Last month, the initial results were put on public display. Within hours of the Godhra outrage, the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and the Bajrang Dal put into motion a meticulously planned pogrom against the Muslim community. Officially, the number of dead is 800. Independent reports put the figure at well over 2,000. More than a hundred and fifty thousand people, driven from their homes, now live in refugee camps. Women were stripped, gang-raped, parents were bludgeoned to death in front of their children. Two hundred and forty dargahs and 180 masjids were destroyed - in Ahmedabad the top of Wali Gujrati, the founder of the modern Urdu poem, was demolished and paved over in the course of a night. The tomb of the musician Ustad Faiyaz Ali Khan was desecrated and wreathed in burning tyres. Arsonists burned and looted shops, homes, hotels, textiles mills, buses and private cards. Hundreds of thousands have lost their jobs. A mob surrounded the house of ex-Congress MP Iqbal Ehsan Jaffri. His phone calls to the director-general of police, the police commissioner, the chief secretary, the additional chief secretary (home) were ignored. The mobile police around his house did not intervene. The mob broke into the house. They stripped his daughters and burnt them alive. Then they beheaded Jaffri and dismembered him.바카라
Subsequently, I penned a rejoinder, published in Outlook (May 27, 2002). Here are excerpts:
바카라That was the Goddess of small things, Arundhati Roy, painting the big picture of Gujarat in Democracy: Who바카라s she when she바카라s at home? Roy sums here nearly almost all the charges against the Sangh Parivar. When a reputed weekly like Outlook publishes a Booker Prize-winner, it is meant to be serious commentary. And concomitantly, Roy has put her brilliant linguistic skills to the service of 바카라truth바카라. Read her graphic details: 바카라The mob broke into the house. They stripped his daughters and burnt them alive바카라. Roy speaks with the confidence of an eyewitness. Alternatively, she must have access to an eyewitness. Anyway, it reads heartrendingly honest.
Heartrending, yes, but honest, no. Jafri was killed in the riots but his daughters were neither 바카라stripped바카라 nor 바카라burnt alive바카라. T. A. Jafri, his son, in a front-page interview titled 바카라Nobody knew my father's house was the target바카라 (Asian Age, May 2, Delhi edition), says, 바카라Among my brothers and sisters, I am the only one living in India. And I am the eldest in the family. My sister and brother live in the US. I am 40 years old and I have been born and brought up in Ahmedabad바카라.
So, Roy is lying, for surely Jafri is not. But what about the hundreds of media lies that haven바카라t been exhumed as yet? Her seven-page-long (approximately 6,000 words) hate charter against India and the Sangh Parivar is woven around just two specific cases of human tragedy, one of which바카라by now, we know for sure바카라is a piece of fiction.
The rest is hyperbole, punctuated with venom and vitriol to demonise the Parivar. Precisely, this type of demonisation had resulted in the macabre incident at Godhra. The vicious propaganda unleashed by the secularists for over a decade had made ordinary and gullible Muslims see the innocent Ram sevaks as demons who deserved to be burnt alive.
The recent Supreme Court judgment, hopefully, brings an end to this 바카라hate India바카라 industry fuelled by foreign money and sustained by lies.
