What is the otherwise pro active Governor of West Bengal is doing? Has he despatched any report to the Centre, pertaining to the law & order developments in the state?

this is $6.6 billion stolen by the beedis from Indian workers in India apart from freeloading on all the already overloaded social services
Bangladesh receives nearly half of its total remittances from India.

Migrant workers from the impoverished South Asian country sent home $14 billion last year, according to the World Bank.

Bangladeshi workers in India transferred more than $6.6 billion to their home country, making them the biggest source of remittances to Bangladesh.

This is more than four times the money being sent from Saudi Arabia, the second-highest contributor.

Not necessarily a bad thing.

States like Kerala there is absolutely *No One* to do the jobs these immigrants do , like manual labor, construction and cleaning jobs that require no skill.

In a way thats not avoidable as Indian economy and people go up the value chain .

Matter of fact it was bengalis who used to do these jobs , now being replaced by BD immigrants !!

For decades, India’s Muslims have been exploited by fake secularists, whose vote-bank politics prolonged Raj-era communal laws.

Now there should no doubt in anyone's minds that NaMo and Shah are perfectly aware of who are the people staging the protests and destruction of public property. Whether it is AS, WB, or DL, I personally have total trust in these guys that they will extract maximum political advantage from the situation while of course teaching these miscreants and vandals a lesson.

That's all I have to say on the CAA (no more called CAB).

Regarding illegal immigration, whether it is jihadis on the western border or BDs on the eastern border, the only solution is to seal the border and man it effectively. Any non-RoPers wanting to migrate now from Paa'stan and BDLand do not have to sneak through the border anymore.

On the riots against CAB and NRC - is GoI deliberately taking a relaxed approach to polarise the people completely? If the riots go on like this the peacefools are not going to have much supporters (etc the "secular" media, journos and two paisa parties like CPI and CPI(M)).

Not sure what "relaxed" means. Law and order are state subjects and it is responsibility of the state CMs to quell the miscreants. GOI has taken aggressive approach when needed, i.e to convert CAB to CAA. Now it is time to "watch the fun" and for the BJP cadre to work at grassroots to get maximum advantage. This is how NaMo and Shah work usually, so nothing new or surprising here. Additionally, the BJP has declared it will seek Prez rule in WB if situation deteriorates. All the above should give enough clues about what Shah is planning for WB.

a case has been filed on September 19, 2019



Lawsuit filed in US court against Modi on alleged rights abuses in KashmirAhead of the Howdy Modi event, two Kashmiris have filed a civil summons

Lawsuit filed in US court against Modi on alleged rights abuses in KashmirAhead of the Howdy Modi event, two Kashmiris have filed a civil summons

September 20, 2019


In a move that may spell embarrassment for Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s upcoming ‘Howdy Modi’ address in Houston, a 73-page lawsuit filed by a pair of Kashmiri-origin activists has accused the PM, amongst others, of human rights abuses and of inflicting “cruel, inhuman degrading treatment of punishment” upon the Kashmiri people.

According to The Houston Chronicle, the lawsuit, filed in the federal district court of the Southern District of Texas by the ‘Kashmir Khalistan Referendum Front’ and two individuals identified as ‘Ms. TFK’ and ‘Mr. SMS’ sues Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah and the Indian Army’s Lt. General Kanwal Jeet Singh Dhillon for allegedly carrying out extrajudicial killings, causing wrongful death, battery, emotional distress, crimes of humanity upon Kashmiris.

In addition, the plaintiffs say that abrogation of Article 370 was illegal under international law, calling it an annexation.

The suit has been filed citing the Torture Victim Protection Act of 1991, which allows individuals under the actual or apparent authority of a foreign nation who subject individuals to torture or extrajudicial killings to be held liable for recovery of damages.

A court receipt circulated on social media shows a AO 440 (rev. 06/12) form (a summons in a civil action) with a Civil Action No. 19 CV 3532, filed on September 19, stating that the defendants have 21 days to answer to the complaint. The receipt is signed by a Clerk of Court named David Bradley (whose name appears on the US District and Bankruptcy Court of the Southern District of Texas website). The full lawsuit is yet to be made available on official portals.

Avtar Singh Pannu of the Sikhs For Justice organisation, who is listed as the attorney for the plaintiffs, shared the civil docket for the case, which is supposedly assigned to Judge Andrew S. Hanen. Speaking to the Houston Chronicles, Pannu said that Modi “can only escape if he has been granted immunity by the US Department of State”, adding that the Indian PM does not enjoy automatic immunity.

However, Modi also faced a lawsuit in the US during his 2014 visit, when the American Justice Center filed a suit accusing him of allegedly failing to stop the riots that took place in Gujarat in 2002. The case was thrown out the next year after a New York judge ruled that the PM was not under her court’s jurisdiction as he was entitled to immunity as a sitting head of government.

On social media, the lawsuit was shared and supported by the US-based secessionist groups ‘Sikhs for Justice’ and ‘Kashmir2Khalistan’.
The TVPA was also cited in a damages case against Sri Lanka’s former defence chief Gotabaya Rajapaksa, filed by the South-Africa based International Truth and Justice Project in April, 2019.

The Act was first used against a Guatemalan defence minister, Hector Gramajo, who was accused of abducting, raping and torturing Sister Dianna Ortiz. Ortiz won the case, with the US ordering Guatemala to pay her $47.50 million in damages.

The event, which will also be attended by US President Donald Trump, is expected to see a crowd of up to 50,000 people at the NRG Stadium.

Howdy Modi was on 22nd September while the case was filed before that. So Modi went to the US, did what he had planned to do, returned back and nothing happened wrt the case. Why are we discussing this today?

IIRC, similar stunts have been tried against Sonia and MMS during the UPA times too. Nothing happened then too. Publicity stunt pulled by some group to grab attention within its community.

the danger still persists for Modi, in the eyes of the US justice dept.

after he leaves office and perhaps travels outside India, the US can still extradite him.

They had banned his visa for travel to the UK and US for alleged wrongs in India.

How was that ban justified by them without any investigation and without any proof whatsoever.

Pappu's brinkmanship over Savarkar is a good opportunity to corner Kaka stitched unholy alliance. Kaka himself has no issue with Savarkar's abuse but Sena will find it tough to put up brave front for long if Pappu continues his tirade. For BJP they should constantly provoke Pappu
Yep .. BJP should provoke Raful to go harder against Savarkar.

If he drop the ball after talking to UT on coalition compulsion, BJP should catch the drop and hand it back to him.

As an example, BJP could start aggressively pushing that line that Savarkar was a bigger patriot than Nehru. That should tickle COn/Raful good. Repeated jibe will fecth success.

Btw, Never compare anyone to Gandhi as that is a loose-loose proposition with a lot of downside. Also, Keep the Bharat Rathan talk for user at a later stage. Raful has himself stepped on a landmine and it is BJP's job to keep him on it.

Absolutely not. Prior experience shows that this will not curb the illegal component of migration, nor will it guarantee that they return, nor will it stop them from reproducing within India to compound their numbers. A work permit concession will send the message that we are losing the battle. The BDs will both take advantage of the "legal route" and the illegal route. It is totally unrealistic to expect them to be nice and only migrate legally with a work permit. We need to do this on our terms. Only after:

- the border is sealed
- illegal crossings reduced to a small trickle
- Non-RoPers start getting legally admitted/getting citizenship by applying and showing up at border crossing

should India introduce a small pilot scheme of work permits that can be gradually expanded based upon need. The BDs will then be forced to take the legal route of applying for work permits with very specific conditions (no renewal beyond a few years, no provision for family migration, no Indian citizenship for any children produced while in India even if the other parent is Indian citizen).

If these things are not done, it is absolutely impossible to avert the demographic disaster. Least we can do is learn from experience of USA and other countries, and demand stringent action on the ground. This is basically an invasion seeking to undermine the country's integrity, and absolutely cannot be solved by administrative means with more offices housing babus issuing work permits.

This is from Bengaluru.

-How come 'Babri' appeared in CAB protests?

-Was it hidden agenda which has now surfaced?

-After Friday prayer, are Islamic organisations in Bengal also doing violence against Ayodhya verdict under CAB's disguise as teenagers have no knowledge of CAB?
Likely, Protest against RJB order under the umbrella of anti-CAA protest

The suit has been filed citing the Torture Victim Protection Act of 1991, which allows individuals under the actual or apparent authority of a foreign nation who subject individuals to torture or extrajudicial killings to be held liable for recovery of damages.


and it has worked.


The Act was first used against a Guatemalan defence minister, Hector Gramajo, who was accused of abducting, raping and torturing Sister Dianna Ortiz. Ortiz won the case, with the US ordering Guatemala to pay her $47.50 million in damages.

Please update when the same court serves a "contempt" notice on NaMo (since he has not showed up) and starts proceedings.

As with the many previous lawsuits filed against other heads of state/governments, this too will be thrown out upon advice of the state dept. The "genocide" lawsuit against NaMo was also thrown out some years ago.

As for Hector Gramajo: even though the guy was in the US at the time, he did not even bother to contest nor did he pay a dime of damages. The US simply revoked his visa and he went home.

My God ... WATCH this. Modi directly links the CAA to the riots and says seeing the violence it seems the GOI/Parliament did the right thing, He justified the CAA using the violence unleashed in its wake, as many were predicting about BJP.

WATCH ... the embedded video.

Yes Sir it can't get more direct!!
Mumtaz need to do something to show her "core" voters that she will call Modi's bluff. This is not just about Freedom of choice and the fingering anyone based on that anymore. Btw, he ended linking the "choice of clothing" to CON party not a segment of society.

Good article by Dr. BB....seems to be doing well these days.

This is the fate of all caste-based parties in India today where only the sons and brothers and uncles and nephews prosper at the cost of other leaders. The sun is prematurely setting on feudal parties whether it is the Rashtriya Janata Dal in Bihar or the Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh or the JD(S) in Karnataka.

It is against this political current that the Nationalist Congress Party and Shiv Sena have joined hands in Maharashtra. Both are deeply feudalistic in nature and parochially casteist in approach. It is an alliance that is bound to bring disastrous results to both the parties.

Have MAD lost control? Busburning in Dilli and it's not even fridin afternoon!
Several buses in south Delhi were set on fire by demonstrators on Saturday, according to local media reports.
A video published by NDTV, taken from the balcony of a building, shows a bus in the middle of the road engulfed in flames, as a huge plume of black smoke rises from the inferno.
Same pics at Indian Express:
Several students of Jamia Millia Islamia were injured as police entered their campus and lathicharged them after protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act in South Delhi turned violent.
The injured students were taken to a nearby hospital.
In the afternoon, three public buses and a fire tender were set afire in New Friends’ Colony. According to Delhi Fire Service, students of Jamia Millia Islamia University blocked the way of one of the fire tenders and damaged it. Two firemen were also injured in the violence, they said. Jamia Millia, however, denied its involvement in the arson and violence, claiming it was the work of “outsiders”.
By the evening, police entered the campus and shut off its gates. Students were beaten up with batons and tear gas shells were set off inside the campus, even as police personnel were pelted with stones. Hundreds of students were made to file out of the central library with their hands in the air

In the afternoon, three public buses and a fire tender were set afire in New Friends’ Colony. According to Delhi Fire Service, students of Jamia Millia Islamia University blocked the way of one of the fire tenders and damaged it. Two firemen were also injured in the violence, they said. Jamia Millia, however, denied its involvement in the arson and violence, claiming it was the work of “outsiders”.

By the evening, police entered the campus and shut off its gates. Students were beaten up with batons and tear gas shells were set off inside the campus, even as police personnel were pelted with stones. Hundreds of students were made to file out of the central library with their hands in the air.

Around 8:30 pm, police said situation at the university was under control, and that some people had been detained. PTI quoted police sources as saying they entered the campus “to control the situation after violence erupted”.

Jamia dissociates itself from violence

In an official statement, Jamia Millia Islamia said: “On today’s violent incident in the vicinity of JMI, it is clarified that it happened during the protest organised by the people of the nearby areas and not by JMI students. The university has already declared winter vacation and postponed semester examination after 13 December incident. A large number of students staying in hostels have already left and the Vice-Chancellor Najma Akhtar appealed to the students to maintain peace.”

The student community of Jamia also came out with a statement. “We have time and again maintained that our protests are peaceful and non-violent. We stand by this approach and condemn any party involved in the violence. We have maintained calm even when students have been lathi-charged and some women protestors have been badly beaten up,” read the statement.

The Teachers’ Association of Jamia, meanwhile, has called an emergency meeting at 11 am Monday to “discuss the misuse of Jamia’s name in the protests.”
