तुष्टीकरण की राजनीति का एक अच्छा उदाहरण आज यूरोप से मेरी नजर में आया. हिटलर ने लगभग एक से दो करोड के बीच यहूदियों की हत्या करवाई थी. दुनियाँ भर के इतिहास की पुस्तकों में यह बात रेखांकित है. लेकिन वर्तमान यूरोप में मुस्लिमों की संख्या बढी तो उन लोगों ने मांग की कि यहूदियों का नाम लेना उनके लिये घृणित है और इस इतिहास को मिटा दिया जाये. वोटों की राजनीति से डर कर कई यूरोपिय प्रकाशकों ने एवं विद्यालयों ने इस विषय की चर्चा पूरी तरह से अपनी पुस्तकों से मिटा दिया है. एक ओर दो करोड लोग क्रूरता से मटियामेट कर दिये गये, पर दूसरी ओर वोटों की राजनीति के कारण विषय को ही छुपाया जा रहा है.
इस बीच इन नई पुस्तकों के एक विक्रेता अमेजोन को यहूदियों ने कोर्ट में घसीट दिया है कि पुस्तक में असल जानकारी को छुपा कर यहूदियों के साथ अन्याय किया गया है.

- कारगिल में फहराता तिरंगा
- लेकिन करगिल का युद्ध अभी खत्म नहीं हुआ है
- 1999 के पहले यह प्वाईंट भारतीय सीमा का हिस्सा था. लेकिन 99 के युद्ध के समय ही यहां पाकिस्तानी फौज पाबंद हो गयी.
- सवाल यह है कि अगर 99 के युद्ध के दौरान यहां पाकिस्तानी फौज काबिज हुई है तो आज तक हम उन्हें वहां से भगा क्यों नहीं पाये हैं? या फिर कहीं ऐसा तो नहीं है कि भारत ने यह प्वाईंट पाकिस्तान से हारा हुआ मान लिया है?
- पाकिस्तान आज भी एलओसी के पास स्थित दो चोटियों पर बैठा है। प्वाइंट 5353 और आफताब टॉप ये दो चोटियां ऐसी है, जिन पर पाकिस्तानी फौजी आज भी मौजूद है। कारगिल और द्रास जाकर जब ये बात पता चलती है, तो टीस उठती है। आज इस जश्न के बीच उन अमर आत्माओं को एक दर्द का एहसास होगा, एक टीस होगी, काश आत्माएं बोल पाती और हम उनका दर्द समझ पाते.
- अपनी करगिल यात्रा के दौरान जाबांज शहीदों को याद करने के साथ ही प्वाईंट 5353 की कड़वी सच्चाई से भी सामना हुआ. ऐसा नहीं है कि भारतीय जवानों ने जो हासिल किया उसकी तारीफ नहीं होनी चाहिए. लेकिन ये याद रखना होगा कि अधूरी जीत, हार से ज्यादा शर्मनाक होती है। हक की लडाई में समझोते नही होते, लेकिन कारगिल की फतह में समझोते की बू भर नही आती है, कारगिल की पहाड़ियो पर समझोते के निशान मिलते है। हम कुछ पाकर इतने खुश हुये कि जो खो दिया उसकी तरफ पीठ मोड़ ली, दुश्मन लौटते लौटते भी कुछ बचाकर ले गया तो ये उसकी जीत है। पहाडियो पर आज भी हमारा एक इलाका एसा है जो हमारा नही है।

The Cabinet Mission – May, 1946
- Viceroy invites Congress to form Interim Government and the Congress accepts – August 12, 1946
• Muslim League declares Direct Action Day – August 16, 1946
• Communal riots in Bengal and Bihar
• Communal riots in Bombay – 1st September, 1946 - The mind-games that Gandhi thought he was playing brilliantly with Jinnah and the British eventually boomeranged on the nation. Jinnah felt betrayed by Gandhi and the Viceroy when the League was not invited to form the interim government on its own as per Clause 8 of the statement of June 16 and the Muslim League rejected the Cabinet Mission proposals in toto making the threat of a violent eruption by the League very real. But contrary to what the British government wanted, the Muslim League did not unleash violence on the 29th of June even though they did reject the State Paper and refuse to co-operate with the Cabinet Mission.
- Almost as if they wanted to ignite the tinder-box of seething anger in the Muslim League, the Viceroy invites the Congress to form the interim government on the 12th of August. The stage had been set for the imperial government’s back-up plan to be unraveled with perfect timing. The Viceroy did not invite the Muslim League to form the interim government after the Congress rejected the interim government proposals but went ahead to invite the Congress to form the interim government after the League rejected the Mission proposals.
- An enraged Jinnah declared ‘direct action’ on the 16th of August, with the sole objective of making the sovereign state of Pakistan a reality. Partition, which had been averted by the groupings clause in the State paper and the proposal to make a three-tier constitution, was now imminent – thanks to Gandhi’s megalomaniac insistence on disregarding the general view of the Congress Working Committee to accept the State Paper as a starting point for the transfer of power, and on being the only person to negotiate on behalf of the Congress and by extension, it is worth repeating, the whole nation barring the Muslims. Whose agenda was Gandhi really serving?
- In August 1946 after Jinnah blamed Gandhi squarely for aborting the Cabinet Mission proposals for transfer of power, and to emphasize the point that Muslims were not only a separate nation but also hostile to all non-Islamic faiths, he called upon the Muslims to launch direct action, not against the British government, but going by the horrific numbers of Hindus killed in Calcutta on August 16th alone, against the Hindus. Additionally it also served to debunk Gandhi’s stubborn insistence that Muslims can and will live peacefully with Hindus if only the Hindus would serve them wholeheartedly and without political motives.[8]

- Contrary to Aurobindo’s assertion that passive resistance was a necessary tactical move to invoke and strengthen in citizens the much-needed qualities of endurance, capacity for suffering pain and punishment, unflinching courage and the moral strength to ultimately launch if need be, a full-scale war against foreign rulers, Gandhi’s passive resistance became a goal in itself for ordinary ‘Gandhian’ Indians to practise and achieve successfully. But the unanswered question remains - what did Gandhi really desire for the Indians who followed him on the streets? Self-Rule as inner liberation, Home-Rule as the Home Rule League wanted or small victories with passive resistance in local issues? What goal did he explicitly set for the INC?
-
Gandhi's passive resistance only delayed political independence and facilitated the exit of the British on their terms and at a time of their choosing. Thus:
Because Gandhi's resistance to British rule was 'passive', it was essentially non-violent.
Passive resistance by Gandhi's own admission could not be employed for a general objective, but only locally for a limited purpose.
Passive resistance was therefore not intended to end British rule in India or for India's political independence.
Passive resistance was meant only to resist specific, unfair and repressive laws in India.
Gandhi's political career in India was only a continuation of his career in South Africa, both in terms of the methods he employed and his objectives.

Nagpanchmi, the festival of snakes, which was celebrated Sunday, left many Hindu worshippers disappointed when they went to temples but found no snakes. The forest department had taken snake charmers to task for displaying the reptiles.
Nagpanchami is a festival of snakes celebrated on the fifth day of the bright fortnight in the Hindu holy month of Shravan. People visit temples of Hindu god Shiva, worship snakes and offer them milk besides alms to the snake charmer who brings them.
But now, there are no snake charmers seen in the towns and cities as the forest department has warned them of strict action if they bring the reptiles on Nagpanchmi.
