All this using people's tax money.
Not bad as long as it enforces the muslim girl to be 18yrs at the time of marriage.
Telangana is one region where "temporary marriages" are prevalent in poor families. Girls are sold for as low as Rs 20,000 to Arab-sheks in temporary marriages.

All of us know the reason for this freebie. If he really wanted to help by giving away our tax money like this, he could have used that money to give scholarships for engineering fees for the same 18 year old girls. Last time I checked, the annual fees for a merit engineering seat under JNTU was 22k per annum. 51,000 would have covered half of your engineering fees.

Communal tension in Gujarat after priest kills one of the mob that attacked temple
The priest allegedly fired at victim in self-defence when the temple was attacked by a mob late Friday night.

By: Express News Service | Vadodara | Updated: May 9, 2015 3:26 pm

Communal tension gripped Nadiad town in Gujarat’s Kheda district after a former councillor succumbed to bullet injuries Saturday morning at a hospital in Anand town where he was being treated after being shot by the priest of a temple.

The priest allegedly fired at victim Sajid Vora in self-defence when the temple where he lived with his family was attacked by a mob late Friday night.

Vora, an ex-councillor of Marida locality in Nadiad, was leading the mob that pelted stones at Dalaram Bapa temple situated in the same Muslim-dominated locality. The incident took place at around 2 am Friday, police said.

Cross FIRs were filed at Nadiad police station following the incident. According to an FIR filed by one Mohammad Imran, Vora had altercation with Ashok Bhuria over parking of his Activa after which he took out his gun and fired at him.
A cross-FIR filed by one Girish Giri stated that a mob of around fifty persons gathered outside the temple at around 2 am and started pelting stones, following which the accused fired from his .12 bore licenced gun in self-defence.
The bullet hit Vora in the chest. He was rushed to a hospital in Anand town where he died during treatment on Saturday morning. Kheda SP Sachin Badshah said the police were being deployed in the locality to maintain law and order as the body of the victim was being brought from Anand hospital where he died. No person was yet arrested in this connection.
Badshah said people of two communities clashed over an old matter, with the priest Giri firing from his licenced gun in self-defence when a mob of around fifty persons started pelting stones at the temple where he lived.
“The incident took place in a Muslim dominated locality following some altercation over motorcycle. We are yet to get the exact detail about the reason behind the attack on the temple. But the locals in the area, which is Muslim-dominated, had in the past fought with the priest and their family members who live in the temple. The gun was fired in self-defence,” Badshah
said.

No armed pujari, then the police may have arrived to collect his dead body amidst the charred ruins of the temple.

Last week a Malayalam daily (Mathrubhumi) had reported that K.P's intelligence wing has pretty much identified all naxals and sympathisers behind the recent attacks.
There have been two more arrests of Naxals last day, and both made by the Anti-Terrorist Squad of Maharashtra Police. Both the arrested are Keralites, who have been living in Maharashtra for ages now using false names/identities. The suspects arrested have been identified as K. Muralidharan and Ismail Hamza Sippi.. Muralidharan @ Murali Kannamballi is from Ernakulam district, Kerala. He studied along with P.Rajan at REC (today's NIT) Calicut during the 1970s, when Rajan was picked up by the Kerala Police suspecting him to be a naxal sympathiser. This was the in-famous Rajan case.

Murali Kannamballi was also the master mind behind the attack on Kayanna Police Station, in which a head constable and five constables were brutally attacked and weapons stolen. Kayanna Police station at that time operated in a temporary/rented building. This police station does not seem to exist any more. One of the master-minds got arrested the same day, 39 years after the station was attacked. The police had clearly identified the people behind the attack, but looks like a few like Muralidharan managed to escape.

K.P through a media report had clearly said that they have identified the master-minds behind the latest attacks on some food outlets, and forest department offices in Kerala. One is C.P Moitheen from Pandikkad, Nilambur, Malappuram Dt.. Moitheen's brothers also are naxalite hot-heads and the chap picked up at Pune, Praveen @ Ismail is his brother.

Came back to say: Modi has made a visit to the Naxal infested areas, and have also promised the common people out there a better & safe life. I do get a feeling that there is now a major drive against the naxal hot heads all across the country. The top cadre seems to be from all across India and busting them may be beneficial in the long run.

"Ford Foundation looks at Rajan as saviour"

"The Ford Foundation is lobbying to use US economic leverage over India to get the Narendra Modi government to roll back the action taken against the organisation, high-level sources in Washington and New York say.They claim that financial entities with considerable influence in India, such as Goldman Sachs (which is known to have privileged access to North Block) and Citibank (which enjoys similar privileges with the Reserve Bank of India) have been contacted by senior Foundation officials to intercede with, among others, RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan and Economic Advisor to the Ministry of Finance, Arvind Subramanian, to "persuade the Modi government to drop the measures" enforced against the prestigious body, including the transfer of responsibility for clearing of foreign donations from the Ministry of Finance (which to date has yet to look askance at a request from the well-connected US funder) to the less sympathetic Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA). This was done through bringing the Ford Foundation into the "Prior Reference Category" (PRC), which in fact has been the only substantive action that has been taken in the case of the Foundation. However, this limited action has been sufficient to lead to US Secretary of State John Kerry (who according to sources in Washington had a meeting with Ford Foundation president Darren Walker hours after the Indian decision was announced) instructing his spokesperson to issue a strongly-worded statement against the decision by the Government of India. Soon after the rebuke from the State Department, the head of another major US-based foundation was sent back from Delhi airport after being refused permission to enter this country, in a message that Team Modi would not buckle to pressure the way the Manmohan Singh government was frequently accused of doing.

Sources in New York claim that the Ford-friendly US envoy to the United Nations, Samantha Power, has been lobbying hectically on behalf of Ford to get the UN Secretary-General to join the State Department in condemning India, although thus far, criticism from this quarter has been absent. However, six Senators are known to have interceded on behalf of the Foundation with the Obama administration, leading to open pressure from US envoy Richard Verma. Sources in Delhi say that the shift of the Ford Foundation to the Prior Reference Category is hardly a punishment. It must be added that the Ford Foundation has over the decades assisted several socially worthwhile projects, including several schemes under the Green Revolution of the 1960s, although in recent years it has focused less on such nation-building projects than on others which are societally interventionist on the model followed in Venezuela, Egypt and elsewhere.

Those close to Ford are in full battle cry, accusing the BJP government of "harassment of civil society" through a "crackdown" on NGOs. Lack of a structured communications strategy by Team Modi has thus far obscured the fact that only 16 of more than 35,000 FCRA (Foreign Contributions Regulation Act)-registered NGOs having around 3,000 foreign donors are in the Prior Reference Category (PRC). The impression sought to be created is that instead of acting in the matter of just 0.5% of the 3,000 foreign NGOs operating in India, the PRC condition has been imposed on an overwhelming number of such entities. Greenpeace is another agency that had escaped serious governmental scrutiny during the Manmohan Singh decade, but which has now been held to account for seeking to fund activities designed to block production of essential minerals in India in order to promote their import from Canada and Australia. These countries, whose nationals are active in the higher reaches of Greenpeace, are earning billions of dollars each year from exporting minerals such as iron ore, coal and now uranium to India, minerals that are in plentiful supply in this country, but which NGOs and their UPA allies had thus far prevented from getting extracted, and who are on track to earn much more in a context where China is cutting back on its purchases.

A prominent donee of the Ford Foundation has been Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, who got a monthly scholarship of Rs 30,000 during 2004-7 from the US-based Ashoka Foundation, and who was given the Magsaysay Award, which is directly funded by the Rockefeller and Ford Foundations. Kejriwal had also received $400,000 in 2006 and again in 2009, while references to a third grant of $200,000 in 2011 seem to have been removed from the Foundation's website, perhaps owing to the possibility that it may have gotten linked to the street protests organised during that period on the lines of those in Egypt, Tunisia and other countries (which too received substantial funding from US-based entities that had close links with then Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton). Interestingly, several politicians in India drawn from across the political spectrum have ties to such organisations, which is why it would be inaccurate to single out Arvind Kejriwal in this context.

Interestingly, the Ford Foundation now appears to have tasked a former employee, Amitabh Behar, to create a network of NGOs across India under the "Wada Na Todo" (Don't Break Promises) slogan. Behar has taken over the well-regarded National Foundation of India (NFI), and according to sources in Delhi, has received over $7 million from Ford, besides significant amounts from the MacArthur and Rockefeller Foundations for expanding his activities into directions that appear to veer into the political, exactly as they did in the case of some other donees of the Ford Foundation, especially in Gujarat, a state which seems to have been on the radar of several organisations during 2002-2013. Such a network would have the capability to launch within weeks "independent and spontaneous" agitations on the lines desired by donor agencies, and can therefore get used whenever there is a disconnect between the wishes of the governments backing such foreign NGOs and the Government of India. Extensive networking in media and even within government has added to the power of these agencies to channel public opinion in ways seen by their principals as beneficial to their interests.

Over the past decade, assisted by friends in politics and in the administration, identity issues have been the predominant concern of such foundations, which have collectively lavished funds on projects designed to separate into mutually exclusive compartments, religious and social groups in India. They have focused on projects involving race issues, religion and the alleged discriminatory treatment of particular sections, encouraging its donees to separate different segments of society from each other and to create a sense of victimhood in them. Had David Cameron been the Prime Minister of India, he would have received a rebuke from the Department of State (not to mention the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom, that is USCIRF) for saying that his country was "Christian", or Barack Obama for the frequency with which he turns to the Bible in public, a freedom regarded as regressive in the case of Narendra Modi talking about the Bhagavad Gita, despite the fact that the Gita is, in the view of many, a classic of ancient India even as it is regarded by many as a religious text.

Given the small number of funding organisations affected by the PRC, and the fact that the Modi government is in no mood to back down in the face of pressure from within the country and outside, it would appear that Ford and other foundations may need to tread more carefully in domestic politics than has been the case thus far. "A small group of interested individuals ought not to hold India-US relations to ransom by demanding immunity", a senior official said, adding that "there needs to be mutual respect for policy autonomy in each country and this is missing when even routine bureaucratic decisions get impugned in such a sharp way". He ended by pointing out that "India will have a lot to say in future about such (US administration) inanities and insanities as the slapping of Super 301 or the USCIRF report under the pressure of big donors to political campaigns".

The case of selective silence and its steep costs
Normally, the murder of five poor persons (including two women) belonging to the one family of scheduled-caste origin would create some furore in West Bengal with politicians cross the board and media competing in their solidarity. Savarna ‘progressives’ of various hues would compete to lead the outrage, lest their ‘traditional’ self-appointed spokespersonhood came under threat. That wasn’t the case with the riots in Juranpur of Nadia district, West Bengal. The murderers, in this case, were Muslims. The governing party of West Bengal and the principal opposition party are silent, ostensibly for ‘communal harmony’.

Probe into Maoist leader’s Kerala link - Shoumojit Bannerjee, The Hindu
Known in the Maoist hierarchy by his nom de guerre Ajith, Kannampilly, who has been absconding for the last three decades, is the son of a diplomat, Kannampilly Karunakara Menon, who was part of missions to several European countries.

A major figure in the Naxalite movement during the turbulent 1970s, Kannampilly, who dropped out of the Regional Engineering College Kozhikode to join armed revolution advocated by the Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist), shot to prominence as the mastermind of the midnight attack on the Kayanna police station (near Perambra in Kozhikode district) in February 1976 during the Emergency.

Ajith, who was picked up along with his 29-year-old aide C.P. Ismail from Talegaon Dabhade on the outskirts of Pune, has remained recalcitrant throughout his police custody, said ATS sources.

Picked up from hospital

Ajith, who served as national secretary of the banned CPI (ML-Naxalbari) following its merger with CPI (Maoist) in 2014, and his aide Ismail were living in a plush apartment in the Lotus Villa building in Talegaon under false identities. They were picked up from a hospital in the area from where Ajith allegedly received some treatment.

The Pune ATS team, which has maintained silence over the affair, will leave for Kerala to verify details about the arrested, said sources.

Idols worth Rs 77 crore seized
Chennai: In yet another operation, the third one during the last one week, idol wing personnel unearthed 8 idols dating between the 10th and 13th centuries and valued around Rs77 crore from Mambalam, Chennai, and arrested a cinema production manager on Thursday. This is the biggest and most valued haul in the last five years by the staff strapped idol wing which functions with less than 10 people, under the enforcement offence wing.

Personnel arrested Dhanalingam, 38, a cinema production executive from Kollywood in connection with the seizure and recovered eight idols of the later Chola period, from his possession on Wednesday night. The suspect claimed that the idols were on his hand on transit. Personnel are on the lookout for four more accomplices of the arrested suspect. ”The idols of Perumal, Sivan and Parvathi on a single pedestal, Parvathi, and Umayal Parameshwari belong to the 10th century and Vishnu, Sridevi, Bhoodevi, and Chakrathalwar belong to the 13th century,” said Prateep V. Philip, additional director general of police, Economic Offences Wing.

Idol wing personnel believe that the seized idols might be stolen from two temples in Vandavasi in Tiruvannamalai district.

When some Islamist organisations rallied nearly 1 lakh people in Kolkata to protest the trial of 1971 war criminals in Bangladesh, this silence was at full display, again with honourable exceptions. These sociopaths were protesting the trial of Pakistan’s Bengali Islamist collaborators. They were responsible for tens of thousands of murders, tortures, rapes, arsons, forced conversions, kidnappings and loot, at a scale unprecedented in Bengal (Hindu Bengalis predictably over-represented among the victims along with a huge number of Muslim victims). In Kolkata, the ‘city of processions’, the largest public assembly about Bangladesh was in support of these scum-of-the-earth war-criminals. The political calculation that demands silence about Juranpur, Canning and Deganga riots has ensured a certain rot in inter-communal situation in West Bengal’s Bangladesh border districts. When certain other flowers slowly start blooming in this rotten cesspool, some cry ‘fascism’. The blind-spots, tactical silences and alliances of the principal non-communal political parties of West Bengal will cost the ever-delicate communal situation of this post-partition region very dearly in the long-term. Elsewhere, the communal cauldron is being actively stirred with partition-era Hindu Bengali riot-specialists like Gopal Patha being commemorated as heroes in certain quarters.

The Juranpur riots are telling. On May 4, some people were returning from an annual mela of Dharmaraj (not the Vedic god Yama’s alter name Dharma), a god who is largely revered by non-savarnas of the region and whose priest class is also typically non-savarna. The procession was passing by a mosque. What happened next has happened many times in the subcontinent. Who attacked first is typically a contested version, but it wasn’t a one-sided affair. The list of victims summarises the balance of fighting forces.

Hindu communalists shout that ‘Mamtaz Banoo’ (Mamata Banerjee) and her ‘Total Muslim Congress’ (TMC – Trinamool Congress) have surrendered to jihadists. While this is a idiculous and hate-mongering charge, the TMC’s Muslim heart and mind management team include elements like Idris Ali (presently MP and booked for rioting in the past) and Haji Sheikh Nurul Islam (former MP and alleged to be associated with the 2010 Deganga riots) and assorted non-Bengali origin Urduwallahs. This is damaging and disrespectful to West Bengal’s Muslim Bengalis, who are pitifully poor and discriminated against. When a party chooses the worst sectarian elements to represent a community for tactical gains, it also ends up painting its political constituency in an ideological shade that doesn’t help ‘communal harmony’ cause, to say the least. Grass roots organising around issues that connect the oppressed across religious lines while not being patronising about the lived categories of the oppressed is not something that seculars and their ‘intelligentsia’ seem to be interested in. In the Nadia riots, all the murdered belong to the ‘majority’ community – something unthinkable in East Bengal. Houses were destroyed on both sides. False equivalences between the minority situations in West and East Bengal doesn’t fool anyone. When murder of poor people elicits different responses, silences, solidarity and indifference based on who did the killing, we have a problem.

Yes, I noticed that Kavita Krishnan (from CPI-ML) has started canvassing for settling Rohingyas in India, on FB - she never fails to stand together with the viewpoints of Kashmiri separatists (who of course often have ties to the ISI).

Hence, I re-posted the link to ISI infiltration of the Rohingyas.

this is BS. except for elite nonsense of Rabindra sangeet, the Bengali commoners are about as "serious" about Jihadi threat as commoners elsewhere in the country. the reason Bengal gets uber-left promotion is primarily due to extreme elite penchant for Leftism.

can you please stuff your "I told you so" snobbishness against Bengali Hindus? what vicarious pleasure do you get from doing this?

I can tell you for a fact that the Hindus in my own neck of the woods, the "commoners" are actually less tuned to threat of Jihad than what I increasingly see among the Hindu common people in Bengal.

Just because you are lucky to be living "away" from the border areas doesn't mean you should be so "happy" about making these sneering comments. Please reflect on how well Hindu in your own area are ideologically prepared to beat Jihad. Then, you wouldn't be so eager to say "I told you so".

I should have been more specific. I meant the shenanigans of claiming that, commonality of Rabindra Sangeet singing in WB Hindus and EB Muslims somehow makes Jihadi tendencies unlikely in Bengali muslims.

actually, if you have ever met any rabindranath-lit reading or rabindrasangeet listening BD muslim, you would know that there is a VERY strong correlation between those particular tastes in lit and music and a non-jehadi outlook.
we would do well not to surrender any small advantage we have in order to adopt a maximalist position, especially we dont have that many.

the error lies in extrapolating the non-jehadi mentality to the amm BD public.

Mean while in the communist heaven of Kerala...
Did 'Love Jihad' Lead to Kochi College Girl's Death? Police Take Live-in Partner in Custody
* Girl was studying in a college in Ernakulam known as a "leftist bastion", where beef festival etc. was carried out in all earnest some time back.
* Girl too part of the leftist student union, how ever the union folks themselves have not made much noise on a fellow comrade's suicide.
* The "live in partner" is from the minority community, already married and having 1-3 kids. He is also a PFI party worker, in the Goonda list and one of the accused in a murder case.
* The parents of the girl did seem to know about the "affair" but have not bothered much about it.
* At the moment police rule out murder, and take it as a suicide. The girl seems to have tonsured (or some one else did the tonsuring) her hair, which was also found in the same room.

Actually the Commies used to call Rabindranath a "bourgeois poet". The correct sentence should be "they can sing all the hymns about Marx-Lenin-Mao they want". Seriously Left is still collapsing in WB. The comparison should be with the Assamese. The Assamese tried all forms of Assamese pride thing, ULFA, BLT, etc and then voted Cong repeatedly before the crap hit the roof and they promptly ran to the BJP to do something. Similar fate awaits Bengalies.

I don't know Bengali. But I don't need to know Bengali to see the result of these "beliefs". Sorry, but No, everything about BD's behavior since it came into existence, and even during Partition gives me no hope that somehow the Bengali literary traditions will keep Jihad away from Hindus. This is a spectacularly naive belief. Thanks, but I think I'll keep my eyes open. No offense to you.

The Rohingya population - basically Bdeshis settled in Rakhine state of Myanmar at different periods are in deep crisis. Many have been expelled from Myanmar. There are reports (even today) that thousands are now stranded in sea try to migrate to SE Asia as other countries are not allowing them in. A couple of lakhs have moved to Karachi. These Rohingyas in India may been be heading to Pak through the Indian land route or trying to settle in Muslim ghettos in India.

Did 'Love Jihad' Lead to Kochi College Girl's Death? Police Take Live-in Partner in Custody
* Girl was studying in a college in Ernakulam known as a "leftist bastion", where beef festival etc. was carried out in all earnest some time back.
* Girl too part of the leftist student union, how ever the union folks themselves have not made much noise on a fellow comrade's suicide.
* The "live in partner" is from the minority community, already married and having 1-3 kids. He is also a PFI party worker, in the Goonda list and one of the accused in a murder case.
* The parents of the girl did seem to know about the "affair" but have not bothered much about it.
* At the moment police rule out murder, and take it as a suicide. The girl seems to have tonsured (or some one else did the tonsuring) her hair, which was also found in the same room.
This is how leftist-liberal Hindu babes -- valiantly defending "minorities" against fascist Hindu men -- meet the real world, but sadly are no longer alive to smell the coffee. It is the duty of Hindu men to disabuse their daughters and sisters of the Marxist-leftist drug so that they don't become "women of the right hand" of Muslims. But sadly, many of these Hindu men are drinking the Marxist-liberal cool aid themselves, and are too brainwashed to understand that their women are in danger from the Momins (who don't give a rat's ass about leftist-liberalism and are just looking for some sex slaves).

Saar according to MSM they have been stranded in Sea since months (plural) moi have had the opportunity to be up close to 11 of the so called stranded boats my findings (through observation,examination,interview)

- me could not find one malnourished ill rohingaya no mater how hard moi looked, well if you are stranded for months without food and water you at least should be dehydrated, no?

- all the boats had Satellite phone, pray tell me what refuge boat stranded for months can afford satellite phone, where did they find the fuel to run the bijili generator to charge the batteries. who pays the charges of about 39 USD/minutes?

all of them had same story to tell they want better life.

one of the boat refugee gave their testimony (through sat phone of course)to you yen refugee department where they supposedly killed each other just to stay alive just a few hours after moi had a visit to that boat, me is either is absolutely blind or stupid not to have found any sign of fight to death either on the bodies of the boat people or in the boat.

something is not right, the usual suspect Netherland, Denmark, green piss are most vocal but what really is this rohingaya trouble? i have no idea but tis ain't refugee trouble it is something else.

This is an organized racket transporting Rohingyas to different places - SE Asia, Pak, India in exchange for money. They have been declared non-citizens in Myanmar, some have fled the violence in Myanmar to Bdesh but Bdesh govt keeps them in camps and is trying to push them back. So they are trying to flee for a better life.

As long as Rohingyas dont end up in India, we mustn't care where they end up. There is an Economist article saying they are headed for Islamic Malaysia and the usual suspects are trying to push them in to Thailand.

I hope Rohigyas find a good relocation package to settle in Malaysia or Saudi Arabia.

we would do well not to surrender any small advantage we have in order to adopt a maximalist position, especially we dont have that many.

the error lies in extrapolating the non-jehadi mentality to the amm BD public.
I don't know Bengali. But I don't need to know Bengali to see the result of these "beliefs". Sorry, but No, everything about BD's behavior since it came into existence, and even during Partition gives me no hope that somehow the Bengali literary traditions will keep Jihad away from Hindus. This is a spectacularly naive belief. Thanks, but I think I'll keep my eyes open. No offense to you.
sorry to say sir but your 'beliefs' dont stand up to facts. and somehow I suspect that your knowledge of BD society is at par with your knowledge of bengali literature.

BD society, unlike paki one is one where the non-jehadi faction still has a very strong voice and isnt afraid to use it. this is a country where a large chunk of the educated youth erupted onto the streets demanding death penalty for the heroes of jehad ! (and yes, strong correlation b/w rabindranath-fans and those guys) how many muslims countries can you show with a similar record ? the fact is, that the fight b/w jehadis and non-jehadis in BD is ongoing and is in no way a foregone conclusion.

now, we can of course follow your advice and close our doors on this faction (which may be able to dominate BD with a little assistance) thus surrendering the country to the jehadists OR, we can help them give a tough fight to the jehadis.

I know which road is better for India.

She has a vested interest in campaigning for asylum. When the Govt. rejects, they will go to NYT, WaPo, economist how Yindoo fundamentalist Govt. is giving asylum to BD Hindus but not to persecuted Muslims.

Kavita Krishnan's group CPI-ML is a known naxalite/left-wing extremist terrorist group

http://www.satp.org/satporgtp/countries ... /CPI_M.htm
The Maoist Communist Centre of India (MCC) and the Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) People's War (also known as the People's War Group or PWG) merged to form a new entity, the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) on September 21, 2004, somewhere in the projected 'liberated zone'. Officially, the merger was announced on October 14, 2004, by the PWG Andhra Pradesh ‘state secretary’, Ramakrishna, at a news conference in Hyderabad, on the eve of peace talks between the PWG and the State Government.

The boy from Hyderabad who died for ISIS in Syria
IndiaNitin B.| Tuesday, May 19, 2015 - 15:28

"This is it. That's the house," says a kid, pointing in the direction of a big four-storey building. After a couple of turns on the dusty path in Shastripuram on the outskirts of Hyderabad, stands a tall glass building with high walls and lofty gates.

This is where the family of Mohammed Atif Waseem stays. This is the house in which Atif grew up and spent his formative years.

On April 24, Atif's family received a message from terrorist group Islamic State in Syria informing them that he had died while fighting for them, and that the State considered him a martyr of God.

On approaching the house, young man, around 30-years-old, opens the gate. With one hand ready to close the gate at an instant's notice, he enquires about a reason for the visit. The expression on his face changes when he hears Atif’s name.

Refusing to open the gate completely, he starts talking about how the family still cannot come to terms with it. He is one of Atif’s elder brothers, but refuses to share a name.

"We're still in shock. We do not know how to react. What drove him to do it, even I don't know," he says, as his eyes water up. “I do not want to talk about what happened to my younger brother, please go away,” he says, closing the gate.

السلام عليكم اخي العزيز اود اخبارك ان اخيك محمد عاطف وسيم الهندي قتل في سبيل الله نحسبه من الشهداء ان شاء الله

Translation - Alsalam alakum i want to inform you your brother Mohammed Atif waseem, an Indian has died. We consider him among the martyrs of God.

(The message that was sent to Atif's brother)

Looking at that the house, what stands out, as opposed to the popular construct of poor Muslims taking up to terrorism, is that Atif was from a rich family. Hailing from Manchriyal in the Adilabad district of Telangana, Atif’s family settled in Hyderabad two decades ago. His father runs a real estate business, which has provided well for the family.

There's an unspoken tension in the entire neighbourhood. Even the two little children playing outside the house know they are not supposed to talk about "Atif Bhaiya". There are unlikely to even have understood what this was all about.

Twenty-eight-year-old Atif was known to be a bright child. He did well in school and was a Computer Science Engineering graduate from a college in Hyderabad. "He was a very smart kid. I remember playing cricket with him. He was really good at it and we used to play every day," says 25-year-old Asif manning his father’s shop near Atif’s house. “I have known Atif since we were kids,” he says.

"I remember him clean-shaven with short hair and looking well kept. When I saw his photo that was being circulated through the media, it took me a few seconds to recognize him with the beard," he adds.

"He was one of the richest kids in the colony. He was the first one to get a CBR 250 sports bike in the neighbourhood. Even during his college, he used to take his Honda Civic," adds another friend.

His family remembers him as a kind boy. "He had a very helpful nature and he would always be ready to help if someone needed anything. I was shocked when I found out what happened," says one of Atif's cousins, who wished to remain anonymous.

Atif’s move to London seems to have triggered his interest in the Islamic State. Earlier last year he had moved to London to pursue a Masters degree in Engineering. Family members and police officials say that it was in the UK that he was lured to the Islamic State.

But what drove a bright, well educated, well-to-do kid to join a terrorist organization and pay for it with his life, is still a matter of mystery. The Hyderabad police say they have established that Atif was lured through Facebook, and that given his educational background, it is unlikely he would have been involved in warfare.

So what makes young, educated and seemingly middle-class men get attracted to the Islamic State? Is there a particular social construct or socio-economic background which explains this?

As The Guardian states, IS propaganda and messaging is aimed at foreign fighters from diverse backgrounds. “There is no single pathway, no common socio-economic background, not even a common religious upbringing among individuals attracted to foreign fighting in general or jihadist fighting in particular.” The Islamic State attracts people with a media mix of "graphic violence and utopian idylls”.

A CNN report mentions how terror groups prey on a recruit's sense of identity and "religious duty" besides operating a sophisticated propaganda machine while exerting a cult-like control. The IS turns out timely, high-quality media, with video footage like an action movie trailer and it uses social media, much better than a PR team, to secure a widespread following, mostly teenagers, who are easier to manipulate. And the target of such PR, are the ones hooked to social networks on smart phones.

On December 17, 2014 at around 6:42 pm, Atif made his last call to his elder brother Azeem to tell him that he was in Syria fighting for the Islamic State. He added that there was nothing to worry about. Five months later, the family sits hushed inside their home as they try to cope with the devastating loss of their youngest one.

From Atif's story it seems clear that several Indian-origin men continue to be enamoured by the IS, and that seems to be neither because of “state actors” like Rajnath Singh suggests, or a result of poverty in Muslims as others say.

Remember the last couple of report out of WB about the discovery of illegal *fireworks* factory after explosions? My bet is all of them were bomb making factories quickly branded as *illegal fireworks* factory by the local police to avoid further embarrassment to the TMC gov.

Funds flow of Northeast militants being squeezed by the centre
As the Government of Myanmar is yet to take effective steps to drive out the militants taking shelter in that country, the Government of India has decided to take strong steps to squeeze the fund flow to the camps of the ultras to make life miserable for them.

Almost all the active militant groups of the Northeast have strong bases in Myanmar and despite repeated assurances, the Government of that country is yet to take strong action against them. Highly placed security sources told The Assam Tribune that the ultras would be crippled if the flow of funds can be squeezed and the police and security forces have managed to do that to a large extent. The worst hit is the National Democratic Front of Boroland (S), while the other militant groups have also been affected as most people are not ready to pay the demanded amounts.

Sources pointed out that the movement of the militants with weapons has been restricted to a large extent following the massive crackdown launched after the killing of more than 70 persons by militants belonging to NDFB (S) on December 23, which, in turn, reduced the flow of funds to the coffers of the militants.

Sources pointed out that the main source of income of the NDFB (S) was kidnapping and extortions, but in the last four months, the outfit failed to kidnap any person. The security agencies recently received an input that the debt burden of the NDFB(S) has gone up to Rs 60 lakh and the leaders of the outfit staying in Myanmar called up the commander-in-chief G Bidai to urgently send money.
But Bidai himself is on the run and is not in a position to launch any extortion drive.

During the ongoing operations, police and security forces managed to arrest 148 militants belonging to the outfit along with more than 160 linkmen and couriers. Those linkmen were used by the ultras to collect money on their behalf and they also acted as “spotters” for the outfit. As even the linkmen are now lying low, the militants are finding it hard to collect money. The ULFA (Independent), led by Paresh Barauh, is still getting money in trickles but most people are not ready to pay the demanded amount as was the case in the past.

On their part, the ULFA(I) leaders making calls to people with demands for money, are also ready to negotiate the amount, sources added. On the strength of the NDFB (S) sources said, last year, around 120 new recruits including 25 girls were sent to Myanmar in two batches and they are still in that country.

Several efforts were made to push them to Assam but only five or six could be sent. Sources further said that the abrogation of the cease-fire agreement on March 27 with NSCN (K) would also affect the movement of the militants from Myanmar. All the militant outfits of North East are using the facilities of NSCN (K). Taking advantage of the cease-fire agreement, the NSKN (K) ultras used to help other militants to move into India along with their cadres. But now the militants will not have that advantage, sources pointed out.
