Who is Sonia Gandhi? Part II

This is continuation to our previous article Who is Sonia Gandhi? Part I

(9) Loot of India by Sonia:

Those who have no love for Bharat will not hesitate to plunder her treasures. Mohammed Ghori, Nadir Shah, and the British scum in the East India Company such as Robert Clive, openly looted India. When Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi were Prime Ministers, not a day passed when the PM’s security did not go to the New Delhi or Chennai international airport to send crates and crates of Indian antiques and other treasures to Rome. Air India and Alitalia were the chosen carriers and these crates were not checked by customs. Mr. Arjun Singh, first as Chief Minister, and later as Union Minister in charge of Culture, was extremely enthusiastic in organizing all this. Indian temple-sculpture of gods and goddesses,antiques, pichwai paintings, shatoosh shawls, coins, etc. were transported to Italy to be first displayed in two shops owned by Sonia Gandhi’s sister, Anuskha alias Alessandra Maino Vinci. These shops were located in labour-class areas of Rivolta [shopname: Etnica] and Orbassano [shop name: Ganpati]. These shops obviously did little business; because why would some one from these labour-class localities be interested in buying Indian antiques? The shops were there to make false bills, and there after these treasures were taken to London for auction by Sotheby’s and Christies. Where did the money from these auctions go? One thing is know for certain is that Rahul Gandhi’s expenses and tuition fees for the one year; when he was at Harvard; were paid from an account in the bank of America in Cayman Island..

Secret unaccounted wealth in Swiss accounts

Swiss magazine Schweizer Illustrierte published an explosive story in its issue dated Nov. 11, 1991 which disclosed that fourteen rules or ex-rulers of the third world countries have a deposit of foreign currencies equivalent to Rs. 5 lakh 50 thousand crores in Swiss banks.   The magazine printed the names, photographs and the amount deposited by each of them.  They included Idi Amin of Uganda, Anastasio Somoza of Nicaragua, Jean Claude Duvalier of Haiti, Manuel Noriega of Panama, Seke Moboto of Zaire, Nicolai Chausescue of Rumania, Haile Selassie of Thiopia, Abu Nida of Palestine, Jaafar Numeiri of Sudan, Suharto of Indonesia, Saddam Hussain of Iraq, Jaa B. Bokassa of Zontralafrika, Rajiv Gandhi of India and Reza Pahlevi of Iran, in that order.  The amount said to be deposited by Rajiv Gandhi in various Swiss Banks was 2 billion US dollars.  Most of them, who figure in the list, are infamous for being corrupt, nationally and internationally.  The magazine which published this story is supposed to be a very serious publication

CPI(M) MP Amal dutta raised the matter in parliament, and he did mention the name of Rajiv Gandhi and the amount, but nothing could go on record for there was pandemonium from treasury benches which happened to be occupied by the Congress at that time.  There upon, Sunday Mail carried this story and reproduced the photographs and money mentioned under their names which in turn was published in the Hindi daily Amar Ujala, too.  The point to note was that Congress Government neither confirmed the story nor denied it.  No defamation suit was filed by any of the fourteen leaders or by their relatives.  This speaks volume about the Rajiv-Sonia couple.  India can get her money back, according to the Swiss laws, if prosecution proceedings are finally launched against the heirs of Rajiv Gandhi

Sonia is known for her vindictive nature. She is known not to spare even her party men and routinely humiliates them. She even humiliated the dead body by denying a respectful funeral, of former Prime Minister PV Narasimha Rao who did not encourage Sonia’s political growth.

Nationalism and confidence in India

Sonia abandoned India during 1971 war and in 1977 when Indira Gandhi lost elections she hid herself in Italian embassy. She did not even apply for Indian citizenship for 16 years though living in Prime Minister’s house.

Moral principles vs. political Gains

Sonia,in 1997, Sonia pulled down United Front Government at centre because a political party DMK, a constituent of United Front Government was found to be close to her husband’s killers i.e., LTTE. Every election costs Indian tax payer billions of rupees. But in 2004, she joined hands with same DMK to gain power.

Abandoning India at the time of crisis

The bottom line observed in Sonia’s mindset is that she can always run back to Italy if she becomes vulnerable at anytime. In Peru, President Fujimori who all along claimed to be “born Peruvian”, faced with a corruption charge fled to Japan with his loot and reclaimed his Japanese citizenship

In 1977, when the Janata Party defeated the Congress at the polls, and formed the government, Sonia with her two children, abandoned Indira Gandhi and ran to the Italian Embassy in New Delhi and hid there. Rajiv Gandhi was a government servant then [as an Indian Airlines pilot], but he too tagged along and hid in that foreign embassy! Such was her baneful influence on him. Rajiv did snap out Sonia’s influence after 1989, but alas he was assassinated before he could rectify it. Those close to Rajiv knew that he was planning set things right about Sonia after the 1991 elections. She did too know of it because he had told her. Ever wonder why Sonia’s closest advisers are those whom Rajiv literally hated? Ambika Soni is one such name. Ever wonder why she asked the President of India to set aside, on a mercy petition, the Supreme Court judgment directing that Rajiv Gandhi’s LTTE killers be hanged to death, when she was not similarly moved for Satwant Singh who killed Indira Gandhi or recently for Dhanajoy Chattopadhyaya? The explanation for this special consideration for the LTTE lies in what Rajiv had told her in 1990.

Sonia’s greed for power: How did she become party president

Sonia said that she was not interested in politics, she would not enter politics. She said she would not become a Congress member. She will only help the party as a person belonging to the Congress family. She said I am just a four penny member; I will not occupy any position

The circumstance under which Rajiv hastily married Sonia in a Church in Orbassano is controversial but that was his personal matter that has no public significance. But what is of public significance is that Indira Gandhi who was initially dead set against the marriage for reasons known to her, relented to hold a registry marriage with Hindu ceremonial trappings in New Delhi only after the pro-Soviet T.N. Kaul prevailed upon her to accept the marriage in “the larger interest of cementing Indo-Soviet Friendship”. Kaul would not have intervened unless the Soviet Union had asked him to.

Such has been the extensive patronage from the beginning extended to Sonia Gandhi from the Soviets. When a Prime Minister of India’s son dates a girl in London, the KGB which valued Indo-Soviet relations, obviously would investigate her and find out that she was the daughter of Stefano, their old reliable Italian contact. Thus, Sonia with Rajiv meant deeper access to the household of the Indian Prime Minister. Hence cementing the Rajiv-Sonia relations was in the Soviet national interest and they went to work on it. And they did through their then existing moles in the Indira Gandhi camp.

After her marriage to Rajiv, the Soviet connection with the Mainos was fortified and nurtured by generous financial help through commissions and kickbacks on every Indo, Soviet trade deal and defense purchases. According to the respected Swiss magazine, Schweitzer Illustrate [November 1991 issue], Rajiv Gandhi had about $ 2 billion in numbered Swiss bank accounts, which Sonia inherited upon his assassination. Dr. Yevgenia Albats, PhD [Harvard], is a noted Russian scholar and journalist, and was a member of the KGB Commission set up by President Yeltsin in August 1991. She was privy to the Soviet intelligence files that documented these deals and KGB facilitation of the same. In her book, The State within a State, The KGB in Soviet Union, she even gives the file numbers of such intelligence files, which can now be accessed by any Indian government through a formal request to the Kremlin.

The Russian Government in 1992 was confronted by the Albats’ disclosure; they confirmed it through their official spokesperson to the press [which was published in Hindu in 1992], defending such financial payments as necessary in “Soviet ideological interest”.

When the Soviet Union disintegrated in 1991, things changed for Ms. Sonia Gandhi. Her patrons evaporated. The rump that became Russia was in a financial mess and disorder. So Ms. Sonia Gandhi became a supporter of another communist country to the annoyance of the Russians.

The national security ramification of this ‘annoyance’ is now significant: The President of Russia today is Putin, a former dyed-in-the-wool KGB officer. Upon Dr. Manmohan Singh’s government taking office, Russia called back it’s career diplomat Ambassador in New Delhi and immediately posted as the new Ambassador a person who was the KGB station chief in New Delhi during the 1970s. In view of Dr. Albats confirmed revelation, it stands to reason that the new Ambassador would have known first hand about Sonia’s connections with the KGB. He may have in fact been her “controller”. The new Indian government which is defacto Sonia’s, cannot afford to annoy him or even disregard Russian demands coming from him? They will obviously placate him so as not to risk exposure. Is this not a major national security risk and a delicate matter for the nation?Of course, all Indians would like good normal and healthy relations with Russia. Who can forget their assistance to us in times of need? Today’s Russia is the residual legatee of that Soviet Union which helped India. But just because of that, should we tolerate those in our government set up having clandestine links with a foreign spy agency? In the United States, the government did not tolerate an American spying for Israel even though the two countries are as close as any two countries can be. National security and friendship are as different as chalk and cheese.

Illegal registration as a voter

In January 1980, Indira Gandhi returned as Prime Minister. The first thing Sonia did was to enroll herself as a voter. This was a gross violation of the law, enough to cause cancellation of her visa [since she was admittedly an Italian citizen then]. There was some hullabaloo in the press about it, so the Delhi Chief Electoral Officer got her name deleted in 1982. But in January 1983, she again enrolled herself as a voter! Such is her revealed disdain for Indian laws and that is her mindset even today.

SONIA is a staunch roman catholic and she is be fooling the HINDU masses by putting tilak on forehead and by performing pooja in HINDU temples and bowing the head before pujari etc. She pretends to be Hindu, which she is not. We are quoting a report published on 24th march 2011,which is self-explanatory.

Sonia, according to the respected Swiss magazine (published in 1991), Schweitzer Illustrate, Rajiv Gandhi, her late husband had secret Swiss accounts worth $ 2 billion. Sonia is known for her close association with Italian fugitive Quattrocchi.  Sonia and her family are believed to have looted country wealth worth billions of dollars.

(10) Who is behind the death of Indira,Rajiv, Madhavrao Scindia, Rajesh Pilot and Jitendra Prasad? 

Now a days, Sonia is quite open in having political alliances with those who praise Rajiv Gandhi’s killers,like MDMK, PMK, and DMK. No Indian widow wouldever do that. Such circumstances are many, and raise a doubt. How was it possible that Sanjay Gandhi’s plane nose dived to a crash and yet the plane fuselage failed to explode upon impact? There was no fuel! Where as the flight register showed full tank before take-off? For instance, in case of Madhavrao Scindia, Mani Shankar Aiyar and Sheila Dikshit were to be on that flight too; but were asked to stay behind at the last moment. Is it not a fact that Indira Gandhi died because of loss of blood from the wounds and not directly due to the impact of a bullet on her head or heart? Then is it not strange that Sonia had insisted that the bleeding Indira be driven to Lohia Hospital— in the opposite direction to AIIMS which had a contingency protocol set up for precisely such an event ?And after reaching Lohia Hospital; didn`t Sonia change her mind and demand that they all drive to AIIMS thus losing 25 valuable minutes? Why was there no inquiry conducted? Almost Sonia`s all would-be young competitors like - Rajesh Pilot, Madhavrao Scindia, Jitendra Prasad were killed in various so-called accidents. Why? Now Sonia`s reign is functioning undeterredly, that there are many such unsolved  and mysterious questions present all around us. There is no solution and solution-seeker to it. that's the Italy style.

(11) Scams and more scams under Sonia’s Rule:

1. IPO – Demat Scam (2005) – Rs. 146 Cr

2. Scorpene Submarine Scam (2005) – Rs. 18,978 Cr

3. Punjab City Center Scam (2006) – Rs. 1500 Cr

4. Hassan Ali Khan Tax Default (2008) – Rs. 20,000 Cr

5. Satyam Scam (2008) – Rs. 10,000 Cr

6. Army Ration Scam (2008) – Rs. 5,000 Cr

7. 2G Spectrum Scam (2008) – Rs. 1,76,000 Cr

8. State Bank of Saurashtra Scam – Rs. 95 Cr

9. Jharkhand Rural Health Scam (2008) – Rs. 130 Cr

10. Rice Export Scam (2009) – Rs. 2,500 Cr

11. Orissa Mine Scam (2009) – Rs. 7,000 Cr

14. IPL Cricket Scam

15. Adarsh Society Scam

16. Kerosene Adulteration Scam

17.ISRO scam

Thus, till now corruption has taken a toll of approximately Rs. 910, 603, 234, 300, 000.One cannot help but reflect that if money of this order of magnitude were to be invested in nation building, India would turn into a super power almost overnight! The various social problems that afflict our country today such as poverty, unemployment, illiteracy, malnutrition,etc. could easily be wiped out.We are unable to elaborate on other scandals due to lack of space. For additional information, please visit :www.srsinternational.org  Sonia Gandhi, the President of the current ruling coalition,United Progressive Alliance (UPA), the chairperson of The Rajiv Gandhi Foundation and of course,the President of the Congress Party, is also the chairperson of the National Advisory Council (NAC).

Who is Sonia Gandhi? Part I

She is President of Indian National Congress is the simplest answer. But after going through various articles we found it’s a difficult task to answer the question, thus we have taken excerpts from various articles by Dr Subramanian Swamy to come with an appropriate answer for our readers.

It is very difficult for Indian citizens to get information about Sonia Gandhi’s past. Don’t we find it difficult to know the real background of even India-born politicians? In case of a foreign-born, it is much harder to get such information because of the remoteness of the place and the language-barrier (Italian in this case). Never the less, Indian citizens have the right to know. This note is based on information publicized by Sonia herself and the Congress Party. It clearly brings out the lies for real.

LIES

Name:         Sonia

Birthplace:   Orbassano

Education:   Diploma in English from Cambridge University

Occupation: Political Leader

Image:        Honest and clean

THE TRUTH

Name:         Antonia Maino

Birthplace:   Luciana

Education:   Has not studied beyond high school

Occupation: Agent of Russian Intelligence Agency, KGB

Image:        Highly corrupt

(1) Real Name:

Sonia Gandhi’s real name is not Sonia, but Antonia Maino. This was revealed by the Italian Ambassador in New Delhi in a letter dated April 27, 1983 to the Union Home Ministry. This letter has intentionally never been made public by the Home Ministry. Antonia is Sonia’s real name as stated in her birth certificate.

(2) Real Father:

Sonia’s said-father is Stefano Maino; the real husband of her mother. According to Sonia Gandhi’s birth certificate, she was born in Luciana in December 1944. But it turns out that Stefano Maino was in jail in Russia from 1942 to 1945. Stefano had joined the Nazi army as a volunteer, as many Italian fascists had done, and was a prisoner of war in Russia during these years. Therefore, it is clear that Stefano Maino could not have been Sonia’s father. To hide this, her birth date was changed to 9th December 1946, and her birth-place was changed to Orbassano. While in the Russian jail, Sonia’s father gradually converted to a Soviet supporter.

(3) Real Place of Birth:

Sonia was not born in Orbassano, as she claims in her bio-data submitted to Parliament on becoming an MP. She was born in Luciana as stated in her birth-certificate. She perhaps would like to hide the place of her birth because of her father’s connection with the Nazis and Mussolini’s Fascists; and her family’s continuing connections with the Nazi-Fascists that is still surviving in Italy; since the end of the War. Luciana is where Nazi-Fascist network is head quartered; and is on the Italian-Swiss border. There can be no other explanation for this otherwise meaningless lie.

(4) False Declaration of her Education:

Sonia Gandhi has not studied beyond High School. But in her sworn-affidavit filed as a contesting candidate before the Rae Bareli Returning Officer in the 2004 Lok Sabha elections, she falsely claimed that she got a diploma in English from the prestigious University of Cambridge, UK. She had made the same false claim earlier in 1999 in her biographical-data given under her signature to the Lok Sabha Secretariat. This was published in Parliament’s 'Who’s Who'. Later, after Dr Subramanian Swamy pointed this out to the Lok Sabha Speaker in a written complaint of a 'Breach of Ethics' of the Lok Sabha, she wrote to the Speaker claiming that it was a “typing mistake”. This would probably qualify for inclusion in the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest typing mistake in history! The truth is that Ms. Gandhi has never studied in any college anywhere. She did go to a Catholic nun-run seminary school called Maria Ausiliatrice in Giaveno (15 kms from her adopted home-town of Orbassano). In those days, poverty had forced young Italian girls to go to such missionary schools and then go to USA to get jobs as cleaning maids, waitresses and domestic help. The Mainos were poor those days. Sonia’s father was a mason; and her mother a tenant farmer [now the family is worth crores]. Thus, Sonia went to the town of Cambridge in the UK; where she first learnt some English in a teaching-shop called 'Lennox School'. That is her “education”— enough knowledge of English language to get domestic help-jobs. But since education is highly valued in Indian society; so to fool the Indian public Sonia Gandhi will fully lied about her qualifications in Parliamentary records [which is a Breach of Ethics Rules] and in a sworn affidavit [which is criminal offence under IPC, severe enough to disqualify her from being MP]. This also violated the spirit of the Supreme Court judgment requiring candidates to reveal their educational qualification on an affidavit. These lies indicate that Ms. Sonia Gandhi has something to hide, or has a hidden agenda for India, to openly fool Indians for some ulterior or hidden purpose. We therefore need to find out more about her.

(5) Sonia’s Entry into India:

Ms. Sonia Gandhi, upon learning enough English, became a waitress in Varsity Restaurant in Cambridge town. She first met Rajiv Gandhi; when he came to the restaurant in 1965. Rajiv was a student in the University; but could not cope with the academic rigour of Cambridge University for long. He had to leave Cambridge in 1966 for London where he was briefly in Imperial College of Engineering as a student. Sonia too moved to London; where she got a job with an outfit run by a Pakistani, Salman Thassir. Obviously, Sonia made enough money in this job to loan funds to Rajiv, who was living beyond his allowances. Rajiv’s letters to Sanjay Gandhi clearly indicate that he was in financial debt to Sonia; he requested Sanjay to pay off the debt. However, Rajiv was not the only friend Sonia was seeing those days. Madhavrao Scindia and a German, named Stiegler, are worth mentioning as other close friends of Sonia. Madhavrao’s friendship continued even after Sonia’s marriage to Rajiv.

She did not apply for Indian citizenship in 1968 when she married Rajiv and came to India, which is what good Indian wives would have done. She filled in an application in 1968 for permission to stay as a foreigner in India for five years. She said I am married, I am married into the family of the Indian Prime Minister but I would still like to remain a foreigner. So she was given a certificate in 1968 to reside in India as a foreigner for five years. Okay, this may have been due to some adjustment problems.

In 1973, after the first five year period expired, she again applied for the permit to stay on India for another five years as a foreigner and this is the person who is going to live and die for us. There is not only complete divorce between what she says and what she does there is also a clue that she will do precisely the opposite of what she says. So, she again applied for a foreigner’s permit. You know why? Between 1968 and 1973, the indications were all there of the imminent war with Pakistan over East Pakistan. And sure enough, there was the Bangladesh war. During the Bangladesh war, when all commercial pilots were asked to forego their leave and come into service, she asked Rajeev to go on a long leave and he was given special permission and they left India. And throughout the period of the war, they were in Rome. Why, because the American seventh fleet was moving towards India and Sonia Gandhi probably had serious doubts about India’s survival! So she ran away from the country with her husband; to that extent faithful. And she returned only after peace was restored, after India had won the war, when because of Indira Gandhi, that family acquired stature and became invincible.

So, we have to read between the lines, you have to look at the persons behind the skin. So, in 1973, she again applied for a permit to remain a foreigner in India. Now let us come to the period between 1973 and 1978. In the year 1977 when Mrs. Gandhi was defeated after she lifted the Emergency and called for elections, Sonia Gandhi learnt the mood of the nation and she went into the Italian embassy and refused to come out of it. She said she was going back to Italy. Sanjay Gandhi had to go and plead with her to return. This is the person who is going to live and die for India, please understand. To live in India is very different from living for India. And to live in India in such glory, with such protection, with such resources, is very different from dying for India. No one will die for something which one does not own up to. Owning up to India is different from thinking you own India.

 

(6) Rajiv Gandhi and Sonia’s Controversial Marriage:

The circumstance under which Rajiv hastily married Sonia in a Church in Orbassano is controversial; but that was his personal matter; which has no public significance. What however is of public significance is that Indira Gandhi; who was initially firmly opposed to the marriage; arranged for another marriage ceremony in New Delhi; as per Vedic traditions; to fool the gullible Indian public. And all this happened only after the pro-Soviet T.N. Kaul prevailed upon her to accept the marriage in “the larger interest of cementing Indo-Soviet Friendship”. The question that arises is; 'Who had persuaded Kaul to intervene in this way?' During the 1971 war with Pakistan, in a time of national crisis; when every patriotic Indian was willing to lay down his life for the nation; Sonia Maino fled to Italy with Rajiv Gandhi!

Sonia – Rajiv’s relationship

(Dr. Subramanian Swamy)

Ms. Sonia Gandhi upon learning enough English became a waitress in Varsity Restaurant in Cambridge town. She first met Rajiv when he came to the restaurant in 1965. Rajiv was a student in the University, but could not cope with the academic rigor for long. So he had to depart in 1966 for London where he was briefly in Imperial College of Engineering as a student. Sonia too moved to London, and according my information, got a job with an outfit run by Salman Thassir, a debonair Pakistani based in Lahore, and who has an export-import company headquartered in Dubai but who spends most of his time in London. This fits the profile of an ISI functionary. Obviously, Sonia made enough money in this job to loan Rajiv funds in London, who was obviously living beyond his allowances [Indira herself expressed anguish to me on this score in late 1965 when she invited me to a private tea at the Guest House in Brandeis University]. Rajiv’s letters to Sanjay, who was also in London then, clearly indicate that he was in financial debt to Sonia because he requested Sanjay who obviously had more access to money, to pay off the debt. However, Rajiv was not the only friend Sonia was seeing those days. Madhavrao Scindia and a German by name Stiegler are worth mentioning as other good friends of Sonia. Madhavrao’s friendship continued even after Sonia’s marriage to Rajiv. Scindia in 1982 was involved in a traffic accident near IIT, Delhi main gate while driving a car at 2 AM. Sonia was the only other passenger. Both were badly injured. A student of IIT who was burning midnight oil was out for a cup of coffee. He picked them up from the car, hailed an auto rickshaw and sent an injured Sonia to Mrs. Indira Gandhi’s house since she insisted in not going to a hospital. Madhavrao had broken a leg and in too much pain to make any demand. He was taken to hospital by the Delhi Police who had arrived a little after Sonia had left the scene. In later years, Madhavrao had become privately critical of Sonia, and told some close friends about his apprehensions about Sonia. It is a pity that he died in mysterious circumstances in an air crash.

(7) Sonia, an Agent of Russian Intelligence Agency, KGB:

When a son of Indian Prime Minister dates a girl in London, it is quite natural that the KGB; which valued Indo-Soviet relations; would investigate her. Upon investigations; they had found out that she was the daughter of Stefano Maino, their old reliable Italian contact. Thus, for the Soviets, Sonia’s marriage to Rajiv meant deep access into the household of the Indian Prime Minister. Hence the Rajiv-Sonia relationship was in the Soviet national interest and the KGB went to work on it. After her marriage to Rajiv; the Soviet connection with the Mainos was strengthened and nurtured by generous financial help through commissions and kick-backs on every Indo-Soviet trade-deal & defence purchases. Dr. Yevgenia Albats, Ph.D [Harvard], a noted Russian scholar & journalist, was a member of the KGB Commission set up by President Yeltsin in August 1991. She had access to the Soviet intelligence files that documented these deals and KGB facilitation of the same. In her book, 'The State With in a State: The KGB in the Soviet Union', she even gives the reference numbers of such intelligence files. These can now be accessed by any Indian government through a formal request to the Kremlin. In 1992, the official spokesperson of the government confirmed the authenticity of Dr Albats’ disclosure [this which was published in The Hindu in 1992]. The spokesperson defended such financial payments as necessary in “Soviet ideological interest”. Part of the funds was used by the Maino family to fund loyal Congress party candidates in the General Elections. When the Soviet Union disintegrated in 1991, things changed for Ms. Sonia Gandhi. Her source of funds turned dry and as a result, Sonia started turning away from Russia. Upon Dr. Manmohan Singh’s government taking office, Russian President Mr. Putin (who has been a close agent of KGB) appointed a special person as their new Ambassador in New Delhi; who had first-hand knowledge about Sonia’s history and her family connections with the Russia. It is common knowledge that the current Indian Government is run by Sonia Gandhi. This Government therefore cannot afford to annoy the Russian Ambassador or even disregard Russian demands that come from him and asa result, Indo-Russian relations have now reached a new level. Even in the United States; the government will not tolerate an American spying for Israel even though the two countries are as close as any two countries can be. National security and friendship are two different things and they cannot be mixed at any cost.

(8) Sonia’s Contempt for Laws of India (Sonia will have to leave Bharat):

After Sonia married Rajiv, she and her Italian family, aided by their friend Ottavio Quattrocchi, went about minting money with complete disregard for Indian laws. Within a few years; the Mainos rose from utter poverty to become billionaires. On November 19, 1974, as fresh entrant to Parliament, I (Subramaniam Swamy) had asked the then Prime Minister Ms. Indira Gandhi on the floor of the House if her daughter in-law, Sonia Gandhi, was acting as an insurance agent of a public sector insurance company [Oriental Fire & Insurance], giving the Prime Minister’s official residence as her business-address; which is a crime; and using undue influence to get the officers of the PMO insured. Since she remained an Italian citizen this was also a violation of FERA. There was uproar in Parliament, and Mrs. Indira Gandhi was very upset, but she had no alternative. She made a rare admission in a written reply a few days later that this was true, and that it was by mistake, but that Sonia had resigned from her insurance agency [after my question]. But Sonia’s contempt for Indian law continued...In 1977, the Supreme Court Justice A.C. Gupta Commission set up by the Janata Party government came out with a report on the Maruti Company. (Maruti was then owned by the Gandhi family). The report listed eight violations of FERA, Companies Act, and Foreigners Registration Act by Sonia Gandhi. However, Sonia was never prosecuted. In reality, she can be prosecuted even now; because under Indian law, economic crimes are not subject to the statute of limitation (i.e. there is no maximum time for initiating legal proceedings in case of economic crimes).

In January 1980, Indira Gandhi returned as Prime Minister. The first thing Sonia did was to enroll herself as a voter. This was a gross violation of the law; enough to cause cancellation of her visa [since she was an Italian citizen then]. When this was raised by the media, the Delhi Chief Electoral Officer got her name deleted in 1982. But in January 1983, she again enrolled herself as a voter even being a foreigner [she first applied for citizenship in April 1983]. Later, Sonia became a Indian citizen; but she continued to retain her Italian citizenship. More recently, A.G. Noorani is his book: 'Citizen’s Rights, Judges & State Accountability records [page 318] alleged that Ms. Sonia Gandhi had made secret papers of Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru available to a foreign national. These papers were obviously illegally in her possession. He writes: “Sonia Gandhi has no right to hold them in her possession at all, let alone decide whom to accord permission for access to them”.

This clearly reveals Sonia’s disregard for Indian laws. In conclusion, Sonia has no respect at all for Indian laws; and behaves like someone who is above the law. If cornered or if she becomes vulnerable to prosecution; she can always run back to Italy. In Peru, President Fujimori who always claimed to be “born Peruvian”; when faced with a corruption charge; fled to Japan with his loot and reclaimed his Japanese citizenship. That is Sonia’s fall-back option too.

West Bengal: Campus and Politics

Few outside West Bengal can even imagine this: one of the bIt was regarding students appraisal deadline finished,they were asked to leave campusggest killers in this state is politics! West Bengal has earned the dubious distinction of recording the highest number of political murders in the country, the National Crime Records Bureau's (NCRB) report points out. The State recorded 26 political murders in 2013, which is more than 25% of the 101 cases in the entire country during the period. West Bengal emerges as perhaps the most politically intolerant state in the country.

The history of political violence in West Bengal is divided into two phases—pre- and post-1977. Before 1977, it was the State machinery that was used almost exclusively by the ruling Congress to tackle the Opposition. Congressmen, generally, didn’t get involved much in attacking or killing CPM workers or Naxals. But after 1977, it was the CPM cadres, who started driving out the opposition and snuffing out dissent from all fora. We have already written about annihilation by CPM in our previous two articles – West Bengal Politics: BloodStained Names I and West Bengal Politics: Blood Stained Names II.

Violence has been part of West Bengal’s campuses since the time the CPM-backed SFI dominated the unions. Many educationists say it is a reflection the extreme politicisation of the setup. What is happening now is an extension of what had happened during the Left Front regime.

Even today, if you ask a Left leader about the necessity of politicisation of Student Unions, they will come up with their 2 pointers

A. If a person can vote at the age of 18 they have every right to do it.

B. It acts as an indicator what is going to happen in near future as students’ movement later gets mass support and becomes mass movement.

Well, the first point is a debatable; we can write an entire article on it later. For the second point let us go through few figures. CPM-led SFI had been dominating college unions for decades. The slide began when 2009-10 when it could win only 260 of 413 college unions, down from 335 of 424 in 2008-09. Mamata Banerjee uprooted 34 years Left Front regime in 2011. Yes it acts as an indicator!

So what else the following event indicates:

- Student was beaten to death at Sajanikanta Mahavidyalaya in Sabong, West Bengal. The third-year student was beaten to death inside a room in the college.

- Students at a Nadia school had slapped a teacher over a dispute over mark sheets.

- In 2012 when a policeman was shot dead at Harimohan Ghosh College in Garden Reach on Kolkata’s outskirts.

- In January 2012, a section of INTTUC and TMCP members raided Raiganj College and beat up the then principal of Raiganj college Dr Dilip Dey Sarkar after dragging him from his chamber. (What INTTUC had to do in a College?)

- In August 2013, TMCP members allegedly physically assaulted three teachers, including the Principal Dr Swapna Mukharjee, in Meghnad Saha College in Itahar of North Dinajpur district today.

- In August 2013, An MA second-year student of Rabindra Bharati University had lodged a complaint with Sinthi police station that she was molested while waiting for transport outside the university’s BT Road campus. She was dragged into a room on the campus, assaulted and molested. They also snatched money from her wallet and the ornaments she was wearing.

Frequent campus violence, mass copying, irregularities in admission procedures, frequent student protests over trivial matters are plaguing West Bengal's once-reputed educational institutions that have at one time produced some of India's best known faces, both leaders and scholars.

One of the state's prestigious institutions, Jadavpur University, remained the epicentre of a massive student agitation that led to the unprecedented step of its Vice Chancellor being asked to step down by none other than Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee when she made an unannounced visit to the university.

Hok Kolorob – The students' movement, that had widespread resonance with many of the Jadavpur University alumnui across the globe expressing solidarity, had its roots in a demand by students for an independent probe into the alleged molestation of a female pupil. A subsequent "violent" police crackdown on the agitating students gradually snowballed, resulting in Vice Chancellor Abhijit Chakrabarti stepping down in the face of what he called an "undemocratic" and "unconstitutional" stir initiated by "politically-affiliated".

We are strongly against policemen entering Campus and feel the VC Chakrabarti could have managed the issue in a better way had he constituted a panel according to Vishakha Guidelines of the Supreme Court. Ironically, Chakrabarti's predecessor Souvik Bhattacharya had put in his papers citing personal reasons barely a month after he was confined for more than 50 hours by students demanding the reinstatement of two students suspended on charges of ragging!!

On 21^st August 2015, trouble started in Presidency College when Chief Minister entered the campus to attend a function. She was greeted with slogans and black flags by a section of students. According to students, they wanted to talk to the chief minister seeking punishment to those responsible for ransacking of heritage Baker Laboratory of the varsity during a 2013 incident but were not allowed to talk to her.

Following allegations of police assault on students protesting during Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s visit to the campus on Friday, a section of the students gheraoed the VC demanding her resignation. Presidency University vice-chancellor Anuradha Lohia remained under gherao by protesting students since Friday evening, the gherao went on the whole night as students refused to let Lohia leave her office room which was filled with anti-administration slogans and posters. Walls and even her nameplate outside the room was vandalised by the students. During the night, registrar and other senior officials of the university were also present along with Lohia.

Protester at
Presidency Campus 

General Secretary of the students union told, “It is not just about the Chief Minister’s visit yesterday and the following police assault on our students but the VC has failed on a number of accounts in the past also. So we have decided to not let her leave the campus till she resigns.”

The gherao threw shadow over the state-run varsity’s third convocation ceremony scheduled 22^nd August 2015 evening. Many of the students have called for a boycott of the convocation.

The picture of the protester given clearly indicates that he is not a protester but he is only an attention seeker!! Does wearing inner wears only have anything to do with the protest?

The boycott call given by a section of protesting students failed to cast shadow over the convocation ceremony which was attended by students in large numbers. The mood at the university campus was divided as many students shouted 'We want convocation' while others raised slogans demanding the VC's resignation.

A couple of hours before the convocation, the VC was escorted by teachers from her office to the function hall on the other end of the sprawling campus. The convocation was attended by Governor K N Tripathi, who is also the chancellor of the university. During her convocation speech, Lohia referred to the agitation saying every challenge is an opportunity. "My faculty and students stood by me and made sure that nothing marred the convocation. Thank you faculty, thank you students," she said.

After Convocation, Lohia left the campus. "We had decided to allow her leave the campus since she has been feeling unwell, but our protests will continue. We will continue to occupy the office till she resigns," according to General Secretary of the students union. Lohia told, “The ones who are protesting are a very small group but very loud.”

Let us see what else we have in store!! TMC is criticising the protest in Presidency University Campus whereas West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee will send a three-member delegation of Trinamool Congress MPs to express solidarity with the students of Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), Pune. The delegation consisting Abhishek Banerjee, Derek O`Brien and Satabdi Roy will visit FTII on Monday.

The FTII students are on a strike as the students who failed to submit appraisal within deadline were asked to leave the campus. Academic activity at the FTII is at a standstill.

One Rank One Pension Timeline

1947 to 1973: OROP was in force

1973: Indira Gandhi abolished OROP. Plus reduced their pensions from 70% to 50% and increased the Babu's pension from 30% to 50%

1973 to 2004: All Quiet on the Western (OROP) front

2004 to 2014: Sonia promises OROP, but does NOTHING, besides treating our forces like dirt

2010: Defence Minister Anthony out-rightly rejects it, says "OROP NOT FEASIBLE"

2014: PM Modi promises OROP, and genuinely works towards it

2015: PM Modi doesn't shy away, but reiterates his commitment to OROP on Independence Day. Swears by the Tiranga and reassures the forces that it shall be implemented shortly, since it is already accepted

Clearly this ‪OROP issue is not as simple as it seems. The initial demands have changed plus Babus are playing their spurious games. But importantly, the intentions of this Government are unquestionable. So why this fuss? 

Slavery, though Independent !

68 years ago, THE HINDUSTAN TIMES Published the first news print "16-Aug-1947 - India Independent: British Rule Ends"

Two days back India celebrated 69th Independence Day, flags hoisted and patriotic songs sung, but many went to work as "the MNC they work for does not follow the Indian holidays", neither India’s Independence day nor the Republic Day".

In Chennai, a MNC was sued for this dumping mercury and polluting environment and subsequently penalised. However, most of the other states don’t bother.

Few MNC pay double salary (per day rate) and for rest do not even bother. Even leave granted are entirely dependent on how happy you have kept your manager. There are many MNCs which have weekly off-days on Saturdays and Sundays, but they make their employee attend office on Saturdays.

Even today many MNC’s holiday list are as per the Holiday of the country where the parent company is located. Does India celebrate Boxing Day? Well you have a Holiday!! And mind it you do not have an option here. Many MNCs which have their parent company located in West Asia extend weekly off-days on Fridays & Saturdays, but Sundays are full working days for their employee in India.

In reality even today we are slaves and we will remain slaves for the MNCs which are running after money, why shouldn’t they listen to their employees and respect the country where they operate?

Well, many will pursue that in the era of globalisation these things are inevitable, many will cite example of working hours of call-centres which are mostly at night. We also agree with them, but the Foreign Direct Investors who are operating in India and those who are coming to India to take advantage of the emerging economy of India, should also respect India and its holidays, especially Independence Day and Republic Day.

Mamata & Hunter

State government was given threat notice from the Central Government. Yet CM did not stop her luxury trip at London. Not only that despite of being sure no investment will come, she took a huge entourage with her to London. That entourage even included persons who had no role of bringing investment to Bengal but if they stayed back they could have prepared Kolkata & outskirts to tackle this flood. They are Police commissioner of Kolkata & Mayor of Kolkata Corporation. When she returned from London, the City & Bengal was in the middle of huge devastation. The Magnanimity of this year's disaster is not seen many years in Bengal. But Government had enough time to control the problem as caution was given to them quite early. Devastation is in Howrah district, Midnapur district, Bnakura, Birbhum, Bardhaman & Murshidabad districts. MP of Bnakura Smt. Moonmoon Sen, reached Delhi even before the start of Monsoon session of the Parliament. After repeated information of flood she never felt necessary to come back to her constituency & stand by his people. We all know that there is very little work going on in the Parliament but she is not even bothered to raise plight of people probably she is unaware of that even. MP of Birbhum is Smt. Satabdi Roy, has not come back from Delhi to stand by his people. Although reason for her is completely different. She was called by investigating agencies to appear for interrogation on her role in Sharadha Chitfund case. She avoided that with a plea that she is "Busy" in parliament. If she comes back & visit Birbhum then she will have to appear before CBI as well. So Satabdi let people of her constituency face flood on their own without help. Only MP who was always there with people is MP of Bolpur. That is the reason he is not in good book from his party as well. MP of Ghatal & other MP from Midnapore Sandhya Roy were not seen with people in flood. MP of Ghatal, a popular Bengali film hero Deb accompanied CM in London as well. After so many days, few hours back he reached his constituency & publicly agreed that Bengal government was not prepared for the flood at all. So it is clear that despite of Central caution Bengal government did not prepare themselves for the natural calamity.

Even now their most MP, MLA s are not serious & not even visiting their constituency at all.

In Howrah, Amta & Udaynarayanpur block is most affected. She went there on 1st of August. She was supervising the relief work. When Most of the camp members complained about not reaching of relief & even MP MLAs not reaching there to see their plight she lost her cool. She can't say anything to her party leaders so put her all anger on the designated official. The telegraph reports, Mamata Banerjee today told the Howrah district magistrate during a recce of inundated areas that she would whip a block development officer (BDO).

"Chabkey laal korey debo (I'll flog him). I don't like these things at all. He should be doing his own work," the chief minister told DM Subhanjan Das in Amta before TV cameras after asking him who the local BDO was. When name of BDO Goutam Dutta was informed to her she humiliated the official. People say CM was angry on BDO because he had helped media persons to cover the CM's visit. Public put all their anger on Government in front of her, entire agitation was recorded on camera. The actual reason of outburst is that.

Losing temper and shouting at a BDO by West Bengal CM proves that she has lost control of the flood situation in West Bengal.  Complete failure of the present TMC government in administration and governance is now chasing the CM and TMC.

We ask Chief Minister, one of hardest affected area of flood is the Kalighat area. We are putting few photograph here. We will like to ask her & ill-behaved cadres who should be get punished for that condition?

This is not the first time she had lost control. Couple of years ago just after being elected as Chief Minister,she did the same thing to an Police officer. On February 7, 2013 she humiliated Special Branch Sergeant K K Dwivedy. 

India Today reports, the surrounding area of the book fair was extremely crowded on Wednesday night as the book fair had just ended. Therefore  it took some time for the CM's car to reach gate no.1. Banerjee lost her cool and said: "Chabkano uchit apnader (you people should be whipped)." She said this to a Kolkata Police special branch Sergeant KK Dwivedi who heads all the security details of the CM. Dwivedi bore the brunt of CM's verbal assault as he was standing right in front her. After rebuking the officer Banerjee started walking towards the Science City and the China Town area.

However one wonders why the IAS, IPS and other Allied Officers of the WB cadre  and WBCS officers are not revolting to such misbehavior of the CM and her party members for the last four years.

The more lee way they give the CM and TMC, the worst lies ahead of them in the future. Even future Political Masters will follow the CM an TMC.

So if these officers have spinal cords, they should react for their own betterment as well as for the betterment of the common man in WB.
