actually comparing to the sikhs is a double edged sword for the islamics. While the sikh turban is essential, it is not "taken off" in school or elsewhere. Their hair is tied in a knot at all times and then a turban. However in case of the kirpan, the sikhs themselves are not following it.
Kirpan bearers are expected to follow a very strict code in day to day living as well.

The 6 teenage girls who insisted on wearing hijab were clearly brainwashed into it by CFI jehadis. They chose a BJP run state for this since they wanted resistance and expected it and had prepared plans to escalate across the state and the country. The KA HC case was filed and pleas in Sc to get pan-India media coverage and turn this into a national and if possible global controversy. The have succeeded in it.

However, the KA HC bench going through the case in detail, live streaming it, the KA AG's robust defense so far and the general negative reaction from non-peacefuls and counter consolidation are fallouts of greater magnitude than they expected. In order to prevent hijabinis from wavering and put pressure on the HC from delivering an adverse judgement, they have upped the ante with the murder of bajrangdal activist Harsha in Shivamogga.

They are going all in and daring the rest of the country to try and stop them. At this point the hijab issue is secondary. Even if HC dismisses their plea and orders secular dress code, these jehadis cant and won't relent. I have not heard even moderate muslims calling for patience and wait for the judgement and abide by it however it turns out.

Goes to prove the whole muslim community (barring rare exceptions) believes alla ka kanoon (or whatever comes in its guise) is to be held higher than desh ka kanoon, no matter how egalitarian, secular or minority favourable the latter may be. The Hindu community is beginning to see this clearly, more clearly than ever before. Many ambivalent "live and let live" Hindus are disgusted and have lost sympathy for them.

For the Govt, backing off is not an option, though they still may do it. Citing some excuse like Ukraine or China etc and explain it away as a master stroke without putting bat on ball. If they do that, they will be feeding the shaitan and helping it grow bigger. Time for BJP and NaMo to decide if "sabka saath.." makes sense when one community is totally hell bent on going against the rest. They need to actively employ "saama, daana, bheda, danda" as a high priority project to tame this shaitan and put it in a bottle. That too is a matter of national interest and a pressing one.

The Karnataka Vidhan Sabha elections is scheduled to May 2023. however I feel this issue of #HijabJihad has not much to do with congress. congress just jumped on to the bandwagon thinking that it can benefit from it. but looking at the scale of saffron shawl, Karnataka congress felt it will burn hand if it openly support. this is the reason why there is a mixed statement from congress leaders.

may be college principal thought just 6 girls will not make a big issue. but before it could be realized things spiraled out of control. also please not that there was a similar situation in Mumbai which was later fought in Bombay HC.
ramana wrote:Next, we have DGP Karnataka responding to a Pak paid rabble rouser while jihadis were posting threats of violence in Shimoga. All these points to weak govt. The government employees don't want to take decision as they fear no backup. We need to worry about Karnataka again.
BJP government both on center and state looks weak when it comes to dealing with such issues. however, state BJP has shown some spine in this case so far.

in the mean time namaz was offered in Mysore palace this may be stray incident but not at a good time.

It think it is a spectacular self goal by Congress - there is a strong Hindu undercurrent that solidifies when caste issues go away. For instance, many people have forgotten the 1994 Urdu news riots and the Cong Govt had to back pedal furiously. They still lost the elections.

BJP was never had overwhelming advantage on INC in any assembly election the state till date. Mostly did not even got majority on its own. This time if it can manage the change of guard and anti incumbency may manage that on the back of this latest stupidity of INC.

They have to simply change the home minister. A strong leader like R Ashoka, Sriramulu or the CM himself will put the fear back in the police. The Bajarang Dal boy had submitted complaints that his life was in in danger, yet the police officers are not suspended for not investigating threats. Contrast this with Bommai as Home minister, CAA protest had three police gun firings, KJ/DJ halli had 3 police firing deaths.

For any of that to happen you need a firm belief in your ideology, BJP at state levels barring MP, UP and GJ do not have any. Through "Operation Kamala" many of the current MLAs in KA are those bought through horse-trading from JDS and INC, add 4 factions within the state party and on any given day the administration takes a back seat to just keeping the flock intact.

So far 4 arrests have been made. The right thing to do to regain control was for the state to encounter all 4 within 24 hrs. As usually is the case the prosecution won't be able to get any witnesses and all 4 will be let go sooner or later.

BJP reminds me of Vinod Kambli, even on deliveries that warrants playing on the frontfoot , BJP loves to corner itself by playing on the backfoot. After a long time the state is witnessing hindu consolidation, there is now more anger after the barbaric murder in Shimoga, so what does BJP do ? Lets INC control the airwaves about Eiswarappa's statement that someday BJP will fly a saffron flag on the Red Fort ! On the other hand Congress leaders like Mukarram Khan openly issue threats of death and violence if someone dare's stop shantidoot womenfolk from wearing hijabs in schools..such is the state.

Is it because witnesses won't come forward due to fear of being attacked by Muslims? If so, can't special arrangements be made to record the witness testimony "in secret"?

Not just because of the fear of Ms, in India it is very difficult if not impossible for the prosecution to convince witnesses of homicides to come forward and testify in court . I don't blame the witnesses, who would want to stick their neck out when they know the writ of the state is so weak that it can barely protect itself let alone its citizens. Give cops a free reign atleast in barbaric cases such as these instead of the usual judicial mockery .

Agreed. Like in the case of the poor girl who was gang-raped & murdered in Hyderabad, just allow the police to encounter the perps. If the 38 death-row convicts go for appeal to HC or SC, do the same to them. The entire country will applaud, just like they did in Hyderabad. The courts saw the public sentiment and remained mum instead of the usual activism. Our judges are anything if not political. They sense the way "the winds are blowing". Its important for us to publicly show it.

There is a saying in Tamil: "Arasan andru kolvan, Deivam nindru kollum" (a King delivers swift justice, while the Lord delivers it patiently). Our political class needs to develop the spine to do the one thing they are elected to do - enforce law & order

I don't think this is true. Political class is elected to make laws; not to enforce them. It's not on BJP or any other political party to be the saviour of the nation. It's on the bureaucracy.

In any sane or insane country, it's the bureaucracy who runs the show; be it unkil, britshits or pakis for that matter. Quite unfortunate in our case that BJP is made the scapegoat for the failings of bureaucracy and imo things will continue to get worse if bureaucracy isn't overhauled.

WHAT TAMIL NADU CAN TEACH WEST BENGAL:

@SirJambavan:
I detest dravidian politics. But, there is something to note. BJP is a rank outsider for TN politics. It won't be a stretch to say it is positively hated by many.

However, when BJP made inroads into TN politics for the past one year, there have been no violent responses like WB.

When (not if) the power shifts from Dravidianism to BJP in TN, it will be very largely peaceful with negligible acts of violence.

This is one of the areas where TN can teach the people of WB about democracy.

many ADMK luminaries have quietly requested their voters to either vote for them or the DMK but not the BJP

Interestingly, the ADMK is supposed to be the BJP's partner in TN but their ideology, looting techniques, and thought processes are identical to that of the DMK as indeed identical to many of the other chunnu munnu chillar parties in TN

the BJP in TN doesn't need non BJP dravidian outsiders to grow but to recognize the phenomena that the concerted pushback has started and to keep that momentum channeled, sustained, and focused.

rajinikanth has already let down the BJP very badly and moreover, the guy is gun shy, not for him the heat and dust of the campaign trail.

If you make him the CM after someone else has done all the hard work, he will grab the chair in a flash.

politically speaking, he is like Bertie Wooster and cannot survive without a Jeeves.

You may be right, but BJP needs a few steroid shots to become stronger in the south. I see the phenomenon of BIF gangs moving/spreading southwards and they're the only counter force, however inconsistently effective they may be. Given the observed popularity of leaders with high public image over the decades in the south, esp in TN, it will help BJP to have him visibly on their side, not necessarily as state leader/future CM.

it is becoming clear that admk under eps/ops don't have any ideology. their only aim is to be in power and they believe that can be achieved by default. tn people will vote for other side after 5 years. so they are not even acting as opposition. instead they're acting like b team for dmk. people are realizing that there is no difference in major issues between these 2 parties in majority of issues like conversion, neet etc. take a look at lavanya case for example. not a peep from them.

one more faction that doesn't have voice in tn politics now is telugu origin people. they are concentrated in chennai, Thiruvallur and vellore. around 30/40 mla seats where their numbers can matter. BJP can get their votes if there is some representation.

This is time to recognize vocal hindu leaders who were marginalized so far for being politically incorrect. Notably H.Raja, Kishore Swamy and also the politically correct Maridas.

Mostly the vocal/viral speeches create awareness and help grow. There is no publicity called bad publicity?

Thanks,
I did spend 1.5 hours. It was time well spent. The only criticism I may have is, it is very difficulty to defeat what you do not understand. In many ways, many of us who live politics knew many (if not all) of these factors, perhaps not with same clarity. Now that this is in the open, Con, the clown prince, and BIF may use it to destroy BJP.

I now understand the conspiracy behind Ms. Vadra's - Ladki hu lad Sakti hu.

many friends in madras have said that the same thing has also happened in their residential colonies and traders associations and many traders were coerced into making "donations" by the dravidian parties

Mean while the Hijab drama is moving in a different direction; with perhaps the hijabis realising that things may not turn out in a way they expected it.
1. Hotel owned by petitioner's father attacked in Udupi. Expect more stories like this; to now change the narrative. The self-victimisation would be using these incidents.
2. More girls remove hijab for classes; stirs go on in parts of Karnataka. I remember reading that the examination boards have also clearly stated that practical exams will NOT be reconducted. The practical examinations for this academic year are already underway.

Other news;
1. Financial aid for murder victim pours in from BJP MLAs
1. Now, private schools in Karnataka come up with dress code for parents

"Asking" for "donations" is quite common for political parties i.e. goons. Hafta vasuli in another name.

ADMK seems to be thinking that they have a future even after JJ and for that they need to keep BJP as their munna in TN and should not allow it to grow. SS also had the same idea. We know how it ended. BJP is not playing such games anymore. Hence the anger ( and fear) in all regional goon gangs like TRS, ADMK, SS etc. Chinnamma ( where is she in all this?) seems to be irrelevant for now. She played her card in the last elections under the threat of BJP and now only lose power as the time progresses. Basic ADMK voter may be more inclined to vote for BJP in near future as they are comparatively more receptive to nationalistic ideas and hate DMK. If I am INC leader ( few of them seems to be around in TN) then I will jump into BJP for my future. :mrgreen:

Only the BJD seems to be playing an intelligent game on long term basis. Keep good relationship with BJP at national level and do not do any over action at state level + ensuring INC do not become strong on the ground in the state. With almost no momo and/or EJ vote bank in any significant way, INC has no scope to play "secular" games in Odissa.

^^^^^^^

the ADMK tie up with the "northerners" party was a last ditch self defence mechanism against the machinations of chinnamma and her goondas which eda and the other "padis" thought that they could manage.

despite appearances, chinnamma is slowly edging her way back in again while recalibrating the sniper scope and eda and the other "padis" have much to fear going by the precedents set by her mentor Amma.

the dravidians in TN are also slowly learning from the new syllabus onlee. A competent big game hunter like k annamalai is not usually seen on the dravidian infested political scene.....

In many states, regional satraps tried their best to keep the BJP caged and confined in growth so that the satraps' extractive "value" increased many fold at the centre, a path that was eagerly traversed by entitled pirate adventurers like CBN, nitishwa, abdullahs, and mehabooba, those of little faith but of great conspiratorial ambition that was often well beyond their meagre competencies

This ploy worked well for a time with PMs like ABV, but then again, compared to the great white shark Modi, ABV was an amiable goldfish -- a striking and dramatic political presence but one who also never unsheathed the fangs of the state on his opponents.

onion merchants seem to be the latest to learn the lesson from the new syllabus.

Onion Merchant is enjoying life and will continue to do so till the next elections. Only problem to the local elections in the money city. It the present dispensation lose power there, then lot of things will change at state level. But the lotus may or may not have to win the majority on its own while the rest may contest together. So difficult thing to win. If the power is retained then the fox team is safe till next assembly elections.

Our argument has been taken by Mr. Naganand,
Naganand: In orthodox Brahmin sections, after upanayanam, a boy is not supposed to wear shirts, only angavasathram. If tomorrow a category of boys say that want to come like this, what will happen? School has to maintain the discipline
But one thing that interests is,
Naganand : After refusing, students behaved rashly. CFI has been coordinating the protests.
CJ : What is CFI?
Naganand : Campus Front of India. It is some kind of voluntary organisation which is spearheading drum beating of hijab. This is some rank radical organisation.
…………
Chief Justice to AG : Do you have some intelligence inputs about this organisation(CFI)?
AG : I have some information, will place it in sealed cover.
But the iceing on cake was when CJ asks AG, are you afraid?
Probably guessing this Wakf Board Chairman : Need to sort out hijab issue harmoniously or the statements like “kitab over hijab” has been brought up now.

BJP contested only 2/20 seats in Chennai in 2021 with <2% vote. Now it has scored a contested vote share of 12% & overall 8%. ADMK has fallen from 30% to 15-20% in Chennai, while BJP emerged from 2% to 8-10%. All in 8 months. Churn for BJP to replace ADMK in Chennai has started.
