India is indeed naive and innocent to the extend that it could not infer the significance of historical events like independence in 1947 when it tactfully, and of course, happily, annexed Jammu Kashmir and began killing the Kashmiri Muslims. After ruling over India for years, Great Britain had to surrender sovereignty eventually back to Indian capitalists who were waging struggles to control Indian economy under the then available leadership of Socialist MK. Gandhi. And when Indian terrorists got freedom from the then powerful UK, Indian leaders like Nehru, Patel &Co could not decode and infer the historical message from the power transfer in New Delhi and, therefore, they sent their military to Jammu Kashmir and annexed that nation and credited to Indian account book, known as constitution. India did not realize then it also has to surrender sovereignty back to Kashmiris after some time. Perhaps, the schools in Allahabad, Rajkot and else where the future leaders of Indian regime studied did not teach the them the basic of morality, politics and logical inference. But India has killed more Kashmiris in decades than the UK did in India for centuries.
India has already become a Hindu state in all practical terms spreading hatred against Islam and targeting Muslims. Today the world is trying to put pieces of available news and facts about Sept-11 event in USA together to make sense out of what the global media reported as asked by the anti-Islamic nations and fascist forces. At the back many, the Sept 11, like similar other events in the world, was the mischievous act of state terrorism. Similarly, many past occurrences need thorough investigations. One of these, the murder of M. K. Gandhi and his possible involvement in annexation of Jammu Kashmir soon after India got freedom from UK.
Despite India’s independence its administration remained under British control for some more years, run by officers in key posts appointed by the British, with Lord Mountbatten as Governor-General and General Boucher as the Army Commander in Chief. Indian leaders, Nehru inclusive, just carried out the British leaders. Divisions of Indian threatened the Indian leaders and they were looking for the right moment to get rid of that “menace”. Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated by Natural Gods on January 30, 1948. Gods was accompanied by Nariman Pate. Both were hanged by Indian government and matter closed then and there. It is clear that Pundit Nehru and Home Minister Zardari Patel and Lord Mountbatten jointly decided the matters and due to “security lapse” Gandhi was murdered in New Delhi. After the assassination Jay Parkas Nariman, a socialist and leading freedom fighter alleged that the Home Ministry was criminally negligent by allowing the murder to occur..
Partition was meant to promote peaceful existence with Muslims on both sides. But Hindus in India always use event to target Muslims in the country, while media, shamelessly, insult the hapless section of Muslims. On June 3 1947 the Congress Working Committee passed the resolution accepting the Partition of India. Gandhi was reportedly isolated by Nehru and Patel and was unhappy. Mountbatten visited him and said he hoped that Gandhi would not oppose the Partition under the Mountbatten Plan. But as India became independent on August 15, 1947 Gandhi became increasingly unhappy with emerging scenario in the country. He was sidelined by Nehru and Patel who moved about in ministerial flagged cars. Gandhi was a marginalized figure.
Fed up with the negative attitude of Indian new rulers pampered by himself, Gandhi finalized plans to travel to Lahore and settle down there to create peace and harmony between India and Pakistan. Gandhi had already written to Jinnah about his desire to settle down in Pakistan. Jinnah said Gandhi was most welcome and invited him to come to Karachi. But Gandhi decided to travel by road to Lahore and settle down there. Plans were finalized for Gandhi and the fifty families to start their journey to Lahore on February 14, 1948. Exactly one fortnight earlier Godse assassinated Gandhi. Had Gandhi carried out his plan he would have been a nuisance for Mountbatten, Nehru and Patel because he would have worked for Indo-Pakistan reconciliation. He had already been totally marginalized in the Congress thanks to his erstwhile loyalists, Nehru and Patel. But the same Gandhi after death became the global brand image for the Congress Party. Surprisingly there is little or no mention by historians of Gandhi’s plans to settle down in Lahore.
Gandhism has lost its credibility with an emerging nuclear India and become a show-piece. It is a fact that many so-called Gandhians have utilized the emerging Indian scenario when Gandhi was praised lavishly by them only to garner all benefits from the willing Indian state; governments have been generous in helping the neo-Gandhians, who love imported cigars and brandy, in their efforts to boost their wealth and influences. Earlier, I stated that Gandhi was not at all involved in the decision making of Indian state to invade Jammu Kashmir and he was mostly sidelined by Nehru and his coterie who guessed Gandhi would oppose this scheme tooth and nail and would hinder the pet project of newly Independent India. Then I also retorted by saying that Nehru and Co. might have obtained his concurrence for their JK annexation plans. Both opposing views are possible and are the natural fall out of the bad and mischievous reporting of Indian sources that always want to protect the misdoings of the Indian state by engineering confusion and tensions. I tired to pursue a two-way thought on M. K. Gandhi’s possible role in annexing the then Jammu Kashmir and adding to Indian Union, being established by Nehru government assisted by Patel. Indian Constitution guarantees every thing to Hindus but Indian leaders kill every possible Muslim in India and Kashmir.
Not just the opponents outside India, even the top national leaders could be effectively silenced in India. The so-called father of Indian nation Mahatma Gandhi is a case in point here. One cannot find fault with Gandhi’s non-violent techniques in Indian separatist struggle for independence, but the his close associates found him unacceptable soon after achievement of goal of obtaining sovereignty back from the colonial power of UK. The man led the struggle became a problem and eventually a casualty and the major victim of new regime in New Delhi. A possibly wage conclusion is that the assassination of MK. Gandhi, whom the Indian leaders later called as “father of nation” had indeed aborted the Lahore plan of Gandhi, possibly considered by Nehru & Co as an anti-Indian crime. Apparently, as he was increasingly being sidelined by Mountbatten, Nehru and Patel, Gandhi became firm in his resolution of going to Pakistan and spending the rest of his life there among those who adore him as a statesman and human, though India considered, still considers, them as bad guys.
Perhaps, Gandhi did not foresee that Indian capitalists and their paid lobbyists in politics in party uniforms would one day kick him out once the removal of foreign capitalists in India is accomplished and control Indian national economy all by themselves. This Gandhian lesson should be an eye-opener for Kashmiri freedom leaders whom the Indian and pro-India outfits in Jammu Kashmir try to use as pawns.
