ദാഹം...



എന്നും

എക്കാലവും....
മതങ്ങള്‍ കൊമ്പുകോര്‍ത്തപ്പോള്‍,
മരിച്ചവരും....
മറക്കപ്പെടുന്നവരും....
മജ്ജയും...
മാംസവുമുള്ള
മനുഷ്യര്‍ മാത്രമായിരുന്നു.....

അപ്പോഴോക്കെയും...
ദൈവങ്ങള്‍ ,
വര്‍ഗീയതയുടെ മണലാരണ്യത്തില്‍,
ഒഴുകിയെത്തുന്ന
ചൂടുള്ള
ചുവന്ന ചോര
ചുണ്ടോടടുപ്പിക്കുന്നുണ്ടായിരുന്നു...


ഒടുവില്‍ .......

യുദ്ധങ്ങള്‍ക്കൊടുവില്‍....
ഒരിക്കലും ദഹിക്കാത്ത...

ഒരിക്കലും ശമിക്കാത്ത.....
ദയാഹീനമായ ദാഹവുമായി

ദൈവം മാത്രം
അവശേഷിച്ചു......

"ENCOUNTERING" THE TRUTHS....

(For last few days, I was away from the virtual world of facebook and blogs..enjoying freedom of loosing attachements....as a small,silent death....
But,...today,on seeing this news report on 'THE HINDU', I found no longer able to keep silent.......)


Yesterday most of the national dailies were happily flashing news about killing of 20 Maoists by heroic CRPF commandos....and reading through them , most of the middle class Indians must have also become happy.


Today, the aftermath of the shooting was reported by HINDU with glimpses of mourning people comprises of the deprived, underprivileged class of DALIT 'tribals'...who are still untouchable to the civic society most of us belong to....
Villagers carrying a dead body
The report states how a peaceful gathering of villagers were crushed by the CRPF jawans.... shooting at unarmed villagers....raping young children.... 
Relatives mourning around a corpse

Needless to say, our CRPF heroes can very well judge insurgency even in a 12 yr old girl and in no time successful in wiping off life from her body with a single bullet.............Or even sometimes they even resort to raping the children for draining the Maoism from their minds.....

Pity...Its a real pity that I belong to this nation having history of peaceful tolerance, gone into the hands of machine gun maniacs , and killing its own citizens....



How can these kind of acts can be differentiated by that done by the religious fanatics in our neighbourhoods ...???...No ...Both are same...and both places the innocents are killed and tortured for no fault of theirs...

May be time had come up for those who rule to look for a political, economical and social solution to the problem of Maoism...It is blinding oneself to believe that Maoism can be tackled by a military solution...

What needed now is :- 

  1. the constitutional upholding of tribal rights of those places where these unfortunate sons & daughters  of nature belongs
  2. stopping the corporate plunder of nature and its resources, which were saved for us by the forefathers of these same tribals.
  3. Renunciation of military action and resort to nonviolent means of change through education and through the Maoists can be brought to the main stream and not their guns...
  4. Those forests, which our developmental extremists want to plunder are there for thousands and thousands of years, hosting the greens required for our own existence...let them remain for the future Indians also...let the indices of GDP not dictate our humanity 
I sincerely hope as like you that may be in the near future my India will be a secular, socialist and democratic country which treats everyone equal without prejudices of caste,creed and colour.....
