I happened to see a physically handicapped
(or challenged, the politically correct version) anchor, that too in a wheel
chair, in BBC channel the other day. It was quite refreshing. Here in india it
has gone primitive, as is expected, and they focus more on body and its unique
expression called body language and other crude nuances, adding to it,
amazingly puerile nonsense as news and high claims on freedom. They also have sponsors
stampeding them, to somehow hoodwink people to buy. It is called business
model.
Though, as mentioned earlier, standard
of BBC has plummeted quite drastically, they are about “monarchial butt” –quoting
the speaker in a debate about monarchy in Australia. Australians are such primitively
feudal people to have British monarchy as their head is amazing. The aborigines
should demand the ouster of this nonsense.
Indian elitizens too are quite
keen on monarchial matters, as it justifies their feudal gains. Some in mysore claim
that it was the royal family that created the city and its infrastructure, it may
be true, they were known to be benevolent, indeed it was expected from the
rulers. Period. In the contemporary time it is disgusting to refer back to them
as torch bearers and the ‘incumbents’ given respect which is not at all due. It
is a sickness. They should have absolutely no role in public functions especially
festivals like dashara, it is a deviant tradition. Instead citizens who have
contributed exceptionally to the society should be taken in as guest of honour.
Royal family and their minions have no place in civilized society, their role
is over. And yes thank you for ruling well, it really shouldn’t be allowed to stretch
any further.
There are people who conduct heritage
walks, and take tourists to look at these monstrous structures. I had that
offer but I said thank you. These are nothing to be proud of, indeed in mysore the
palace is shoddy copy of Europeans, and lacks any local understanding or
innovation. I am not at all impressed by
royal fleet of cars, it made me puke. They should dump these into some garbage
yard and convert the space into organic farm or something, or maybe a science
park. A democratically elected government is expected to see to that any
reference to ‘royal’ is removed from any dealings and leftovers be treated like
ordinary citizens. It is too much to ask from sycophantic mindset that characterizes
Indians, which is so cleverly capitalized by elitizens. It is also not uncommon
that some novae rich want these royal treatments be extended to them, while
others cling on to traditional claims and entitlements. The only heritage I am
keen on is natural heritage, and they are making all effort to see that it is
plundered in the name of development.
Biradri ki aukat:
making of high culture family
Crude woman was saying “har
biradri ki bhaisaab apni apni aukat hothi hai. Ham logon ko hi dekh lo. Hamare hi
log hai mandiron me. Tum logon ka kriya karam bhi hum logon ke hath me hai. Hum
logon ka bhagwan ke saath seedha connection hai”. Her high culture claims was blatant
take on casteism was not lost, she even stressed that it has to do with “superior
genes”. “hotha hai bhaisaab, kudrath me yeh sab hoth hai, aap mano ya na mano. Some
people are always superior to others”. “Dekh lo Sharma log kahan tak pohunch
gaye hai. Agar aap bbc dekhoge tho hamare log, Amrika jaoge wahan pe hamare hi
log hai uche position par. Akbaar kholo tho mishra, cricket dekho tho sharma. Kya
bathaye hum logon ke biradari ke naam pe pahad bhi rakh diya hai amrika me. Ye sab
natural hai bhai saab”. “Bharath bana he hai ham logon ki karam se, freedom
fighters se lekar patrkar sab hamare biradri ke hai” “ab bolo kya bolthe ho” “bolthi
bandh ho gayi kya?”
If you are thinking it is fiction
then you are grossly mistaken. These are fragments of discussion one catches while
travelling. So what is morality of the story here? The caste reference is quite
clearly claimant for superior genes by primitives in this part of the world, though
the fact is India as a society is amazingly mediocre. Also those who carry
these as identities should be aware how it percolates down into racism and prejudices.
Mishras and Sharmas (of course our little Pande) claiming high moral ground
should be put in their primitive framework. Indian zombies will take time to understand
these, it is too entrenched, but international community should take stern
actions. I strongly believe it was Gandhi and his ‘moral’ reach that emasculated
these matters, hence the blinkers, as people suffered untold misery. They quite
effectively hid these primitiveness with heightened secular claims. Gandhi saw
the glimpse of it not in poor marginalized muslims in here but by supporting calipha
in Turkey. In school, I distinctly recall, this was regarded to as his “masterstroke”.
It is this superficial secularism that some elitizens practice and even claim
more than their share of returns –it has become a game, as poor people suffer
and mullahs embolden. Casteism is racism
and the fact that Indians are blatantly racist should be accepted. It is in the
same context that the mountain that was named after an Indian recently, unfortunately,
represents racism.
