1947: Dark age descended on India
India Forum: Comments, Opinion - Information Resource
News Summary: I have just finished reading masterpiece of a book titled INDIA A Cultural Decline or Revival? by Bharat Gupt. The so-called educated people in India-usually pseudo-secular Indians with Western Education-take it for granted that Independence from the British Rule also ushered an era of cultural and social freedom in India. Bharat Gupt in this beautifully conceived and written book has carefully examined as to whether this is true or whether a dark age of cultural decline and barbarism descended.....read more in: 1947: Dark age descended on India

You had no problem Calling an Entire Political class as Rabid Dogs, but when it is directed towards you, you chicken out. Classic Pseudo Secular Pimps, When you cannot take the heat, don"t stand in the kitchen.

Yah right... your place in the bedrooms, you pimps, it is interesting also to see your choice of words, "Filthy" "Mouth" "Licked" .....ha ha ha...Everyone gets the Idea, what is in your profession is in your genes...Hope you make your dough this weekend..it is a busy time indeed for pimps like you. If you insist, be gone..No one is going to miss a Pimp...atleast not on this forum.
25 prabakaran on May-03 :

to MB: I think you would have unleashed your filthy mouth. I have not seen it and dont intend to. Since you dont tolerate counter point and counter arguments, you can go on barking merrily. I will not visit again.
24 MB on May-01 :

I"m sure Pimps know a great deal about "Paying" N "Coins", isn"t that what your goal is anyway?

None of us know what "point" you raised, but I know the goal of your business is to work for a "raise" ( as in erection?!!), lol...ur hilarious..Keep Pimping, atleast you are in the right profession!
23 prabakaran on May-01 :

It is only paying back in the same coin. It is history that parpanaragal like you licked british boots and acted as pimps to climb up in british bureaucracy and your complexion is proof enough. That is why pimp as you are, instead of answering the points raised, you are using foul language and acting as pimp on behalf of sundaram.
22 MB on May-01 :

Prabakaran,

Your polite language is very sublime and Eloquent, lets translate this " product of Cross Pollination", You mean born to a thousand fathers!!! Exactly the words of your Trade, You are Pimping Indeed! And Heck yah, all those Britishers and Moslems have bred you Secularists and have perfected your DNA, India Needs no Enemies, with your breed!
21 prabakaran on May-01 :

Communalists like MB and parpanargal, product of crosspollination will never see reason. See the language they use. Mine is only retaliatory.
20 MB on May-01 :

Prabhakaran, You would make a great pimp! And if you were born in pre-1947 you would have been an excellent Boot Licker of the Colonial Masters. India has many like you, but not too many of these "senile" leaders.
19 prabakaran on May-01 :

Mr. Sundaram is a senile retired parpana bureaucrat bitten by rabid canines like rss, vhp, bajrang dal, bjp etc., (as criminals have different names in different places). Only such people have been responsbile for partition and communal dishormony. They are not only against non-hindus, but also against majority hindus like OBCs,and SCs. Let the secular caravan move on.
18 nakkeeran on May-01 :

Gandhi, Nehru and Patel traitors? Hello, is it mental asylum? some of your inmates have escapted. Please come immediately.
17 Asmat on Feb-22 :

I read that someone here mention D.I.Khan. I live in Dera and would like to tell you that many of the homes from pre-partition are still in tact. Do visit your city, it needs your attention.

16 R.Sharma on Nov-28 :

Yes, I have searched in the Amazon.com. one of the Mathai"s book is available but cost $1500
It is also available in one university library in Japan, but I cannot afford to go there.
It is not available in India now-a-days.

15 Dipak on Nov-26 :

One used copy of Mathai"s book is available on the internet, asking price 1100 euros plus.
Many of AM"s questions I could have answered, unfortunately I am on holidays,I have got no references with me. My memory is not very reliable.
14 A.Moron on Nov-26 :

The Internet is saying that:
(a) Nehru"s grandfather was a Muslim and thus Nehru was a Muslim too;
(b) Indira Gandhi was married to another Muslim;
(c) Rajiv Gandhi was converted to Catholic religion from Muslim; possibly because of that he was killed???
(d) Sonia Gandhi and her son and daughters are Catholic, no doubt.

Where are the truth in these matters???
If these are true, ( Internet cannot be verified; it is not authentic either) the majority Hindus for the last 65 years are being ruled by either our "enemy" Muslims or "not friends either but just tolerable" Catholics.


13 R.Sharma on Nov-26 :

How can I get hold of this book by M.O.Mathai? Does it exist in any library.
I got P.N.Oak"s books from Amazon.com , but I have noticed these are no longer available.
12 Dipak on Nov-25 :

If you read the article, "Netaji"s ghost:The freedom sruggle" by N.S. Rajaram,You will find Gandhi had nothing to do with the achievement of freedom of India. Mr. Clement Atlee laughed when Gandhis name was mentioned. It is unrest created in the Indian army when Azad Hind personnel faced trials which made British rulers to realise they can"t rule India anymore.Nehru"muslim by culture and Hindu by accident" was in right place in right time to create a real mess for HIndus. He called himself "last Englishman to rule India".Mr. M.O. Mathai, his private secretary wrote two books about him, unfortunately those books are unofficially banned by the Nehru dynasty (same thing happened with P.N. Oak"s book on Taj Mahal, banned by Maimuna Begum, otherwise known as Indira Gandhi)
11 g kapuria on Nov-25 :

Whatever technological progress we have achieved in the recent years, is DESPITE the govt, and DESPITE the troubles imposed by the babudom. Nehruvian ideas had little to do with this. Only blind Congress party followers will make such outlandish claims. No Congress govt trusted the genius of the people of India. Scientists and Engineers in various Govt laboratories would come up with innovations, but the govt always ignored those, and sought often crappy technologies of the white men. The IT industry was not initiated by some govt program, govt is simply accomodating that industry.
10 R.Sharma on Nov-25 :

What was the reason for the anti-Hindu attitude of Nehru?

9 S.Ghosh on Nov-23 :

"There is no other country exists where minorities rule over the majority in a democracy"; India is the only one.
Nehru"s discovery of India is more or less the same as the Pakistani text books on history. Based on these, a number of historians from JNU, Aligarh and Dehli Universities along with their foreign counterparts are writing new history books on India, which reflects Pakistani points of views. Thus, our young generation are forced to read these and got a completely false and Anti-Hindu of Indian history and culture.


8 g kapuria on Nov-23 :

RS.. absolutely right on the mark.
7 R.Sharma on Nov-23 :


"India"s national academy of art has nominated artist Maqbool Fida Husain to its executive board. Husain, exiled in Qatar, has accepted the nomination, Ashok Vajpayei, chairman of the Lalit Kala Akademi, said at the release of a book marketed as the first overview of the artist"s work in 40 years."

Here is an example of the distortion of culture. Indian people do not care that MF Hussain has insulted their religion and culture many times but he is considered as a famous artist.

Thus those who would insult Hinduism would receive rich rewards in India. If you practice Hinduism as a Sanyasi, you can be arrested as a Terrorist. When India is being ruled by a Sikh PM, Muslim Vice-President, a corrupt President, a Catholic leader of the ruling party and the Empress of India, what should we expect. There is no country exists where minorities rule over the majority in a democracy.

Those who forget history has no future either. This is happening to India. We are forced to learn a false history written by the servants of Gandhi-Nehru. As a result we ( particularly the young generation) have no knowledge about the culture of India, which is derived from its long history.

My father was 22 years old in 1947. Their generation has witnessed the Farce of Gandhi-Nehru in 1942 and then complete falsehood and betrayal of Gandhi-Nehru in 1946-47. As a result they have no respect for Gandhi-Nehru, but they sincerely hate them.

Gandhi wanted to give away India to jinnah; when it was refused he gave it to another Muslim Nehru ( Nehru"s grandfather Ganga Dhar was a Muslim with a false Hindu name just like Ajit Joggy, Ram Doss, etc in today"s India). There is no other explanation why Nehru was so anti-Hindu and pro-Muslim.

"My father was an young man in 1947," S.Ghosh on Thursday, November 20, 2008 :

How old was your dad in 1947?

How old are you?

I can"t argue with your dad. He had first hand knowledge.

As a pre-teenager and a young adult growing in Pune India, I have come across many RSS volunteers and many more admirers of Azad Hind Fauz.

My recollection is that once Azad Hind Fauz was dissiminated in Burma and the news of Subhas Chandra Bose appeared, there was sadness for a short time. Then we got over it and once Independence arrived in 1947 Azad Hind Fauz just wasn"t that important anymore. It was history.

My ancestors are from Dera Ismile Khan in NWFP of Pakistan. As a pre-teenager I visited our ancestoral home at D. I. Khan twice in 1946 to retrived some of our property from our home. Before this I remember visiting D. I Khan at least twice to attend family weddings.

The carnage that followed the partition of 1947 destroyed many families and relatives. About a dozen or more survivors were housed at our home in Pune for months as they had lost all their possessions. Some had hope to return but it didn"t happen.

For those who were caught in the carnage of 1947 it was a horrible experience but for my Marathi neighbours, it was just a news item as they and their relatives were not personally affected by the tragedy.

Many Punjabis who lost all in the carnage didn"t care for Nehru-Gandhi either. But they got over it; time heals all wounds.

From this personal tragedy I can relate to your dads reaction. I hope time will heal your wounds too.

I had two or three books by Nirad Chaowdhary. I know I lost one to someone who borrowed it to read but never returned it.

I will try to see if I can locate other books in my library.

My wife periodically rearranges my library, so I will let you know.

03020KishanKB:
1) Kasturiranga of DRDO are the kind of people who after getting their diplomas in Anna University ruined India. They have spend more than Rs.6500 Crores but developed possibly Coffee Machine or electric Kettle. Thus, his opinion on India"s progess in science is not credible.
2) Nirad Chordhury was not in the Azad Hind Fauz at all. He was in the British military organization in India as administrative person. I have not read his book on Azad Hind Fauz, but given his slavish attitude towards the British perhaps he has justified mass execution of the members of the Azad Hind Fauz, with the full knowledge of Gandhi-Nehru.
3) Nehru, Patel and Gandhi, used to have regular meeting with the Vice-Roy how to organize war against the Azad Hind Fauz. Ambedkar was a formal member of the War Council. Thus, these people are traitors not freedom fighters. After independence, it was the decision of Gandhi-Nehru-Patel not to accept the members of the Azad Hind Fauz in the Indian Army, because those who fought for the British like Carriappa, Thaper, Themaya had objected. These, traitors, who in any other countries would be hanged in public, got rapid promotions but freedom fighters were completely ignored. The contributions made by the revolutionaries, Azad Hind Fauz, and rebels in the Indian Navy in 1946 are not mentioned in our history books, which are written by the servants of Gandhi-Nehru.
As a result we had a Transfer of Power from White Sahibs to Brown Sahibs, but not Independence, as Gandhi was opposed to it from the begining.
My father was an young man in 1947. Bengal was in the forefront of independence movement, but not of Gandhi-Nehru-Patel variety. The people of my father"s generation used to spit in the name of Gandhi-Nehru.



3 030201kishankb on Nov-20 :

S.Ghosh at 00:09: Very interesting conspiracy theory.

I wish you had defined culture you find in decline.

From what you have describe only Azad Hind Fauz warriors were freedom fighters.

I respected and still do respect Subhash Chandra Bosh and all those who volunteered to join Azad Hind Fauz. But for all their valor and gallantry, they failed to win the war.

Mr. Nirad Chawdhari was a member of Azad Hind Fauz. He has described in his books the war fought by the Azad Hind Fauz. Have you read Mr. Nirad Chowdhari"s books? What do you think of his work?

Both Nehru and Gandhi had nothing to do with Azad Hind Fauz.

There is more than one way to skin a cat. Nehru-Gandhi and many more freedom fighters of diverse religious faiths fought the war their own way - nonviolence - and got India freedom; essentially won the war against Brits.

I was only 11 years old in 1947 and still remember jubilant celebration on Independence eve and day.

According to another view, not the leftist CPI, India is now experiencing renaissance period.

What is your definition of culture, Dr. Ghosh?

Where would you ranks, on your cultural scale, Dr. Kasturiranga"s India?
2 S.Ghosh on Nov-20 :

India has a cultural decline because of Gandhi-Nehru and their followers. Gandhi made the country ungrateful to the freedom fighters. Members of the Azad Hind Fauz were not acceptable to the Indian Army ( who faught on behalf of the British against the Azad Hind Fauz) and were disgracefully ignored. Freedom fighters were ignored as they were not Gandhian. Refugees from Pakistan were asked to go back to Pakistan according to Nehru-Liakat Ali Treaty. A suspected Muslim ( Nehru"s grandfather was a possible Muslim as there was no such Hindu Kotwal in Old Delhi during Bahadur Shah) became the The first prime minister of the country, who had only hate for Hinduism. A Muslim was the President of the Congress Party in India. Muslims Nawabs and Dewans became India"s ambassadors to foreign countries. The majority population was underminded. Of course this is a cultural subjugations of Indians by Pro-Muslim Nehru brigade.
