Thank! Many many thanks! Sociologist Ashish Nandy! For he has exposed the truth rather better than us and expectedly it is heard.We have been writing and talking about scientific Brahaminical rule in Bengal. We have also been saying that the progressive left rule in Bengal was nothing but governance by and for Brahamin Front.Ashish Nandy in his much debated controversial statement in the corporate literary festival to showcase hegemony dominated shining sensex India, has said that Bengal is least inflicted by virus corruption as OBC,SC and ST communities have not been empowered in Bengal for hundred years! Before defending the sociologist for his freedom of speech which remains the monopolistic domain of the ruling class only as the majority stand always deaf and dumb, the intelligentsia must acknowledge Mr Nandy`s reading ie absence of empowerment of the depressed, deprived classes ie OBC, SC and ST communities! It means that the empowerment of these communities which consist eighty five percent population ejected out of the economy, is the source of corruption. It implies that India is not corrupt for free flow of foreign capital or the recycling of black money as the said communities have no representation in corporate India! Thus, this very statement of the well known sociologist do not contradict at all the corporate governance or genocide culture or biometric digital citizenship and the ongoing militarisation of the state and the declaration of war against aborigin indigenous majority communities. It is clear cut clean chit for corporate governance and the ruling manusmriti hegemony!

The corporate media as well as social media  justify publishing the controversy highlighted by the Politicians only.The opposition of the sociologist and the defence of the speech as freedom of expression get the space only. The masses from the sc, st and OBC communities have no voice at all despite the inclusive development and the trickling economy. We, the people who are engaged in the empowerment movement, have not to be published at all.


I have been writing that the civil society movement is sponsored by the corporate India and MNCs which happens to be relaunched anti reservation movement in disguise. The outbirst of civil society against Delhi gangrape incident helped the corporate governance to abort the reservation bill even after the minority government succeeded to get passed all the financial bills to push for reforms and ethnic cleansing. Mind you, the anti reservation lobby stands united as rock solid to defend Mr Ashish Nandy who systematically made the literary dias an anti reservation, anti empowerment forum involving journalist like Mr Tarun Tejpal. At the same time, accusing the empowerment of the majority communities and population, he succeeded to wash out the corporate corruption. Mind you, the co opted political leaders of OBC, SC and ST communities have nothing to do with the materialistic empowerment of these communities They are engaged to empower themselves in matter.Even keeping this in mind, in comparison to the corporate corruption and capitalist black money , not to mention the high caste corruption on higher places , the corruption of empowered leaders of these communities  always remain as the tip of the iceberg.

Moreover, Nandy did forget that all the three interim governments in Bengal before partition were led by Muslim ousting the caste Hindu leadership and the dalit muslim unity in Bengal made the ground of the social change that we witness today. It was bengal which elected Dr BR Ambedkar to compose the constitution of India. Even before the start of Ambedkarite movement, untouchability abolishment law had been enacted in bengal just because of Chandal Movement.Harichand Thakur k]led the anti Brahaminism Matua movement before two hundred years. Until 12th century the land of Asuras saw no Brahamin at all. Only Ballal sen introduced brahaminism in Bengal. The cultural identity of Bengalies as well as the Indians began with Charya Padas which were composed by untouchables only.The Buddhist Bengal did represent equity, nonviolence, freedom, fraternity and social justice. Who killed this? Mr Nandy, a known sociologist also should answer why in the land of untouchables, where the fisher woman Rani rasmani Ruled  and all the rulers in Eastern, north east, west and central India belonged to SC, ST and OBC communities, have the reduced population of SC and ST respectively seventeen percent and seven percent only!

                    In Defence of Ashis Nandy : for academic and intellectual freedom

On 26 January, 2013, at the Jaipur Literature Festival, Ashis Nandy, an eminent scholar and intellectual was attacked for his alleged “offensive” remarks against the backward communities – OBCs, SCs and STs – of India. He has been accused by a section of the media and political class of holding the backward communities responsible for the widespread corruption that ails the country. Those who are familiar with Nandy’s work and his impeccable credentials would know that the accusation is farthest from the truth. Not only has he been grossly misunderstood but the accusation is an affront to his decades long deeply sensitive scholarship including that on the backward communities.
A section of the media, IBN group senior journalist Ashutosh in particular, in the garb of safeguarding the dignity of the underprivileged has not only harmed that further but has also disgraced the eminent intellectual by forcing an apology out of him. It is interesting to note that those in the political class and media who now claim to stand for the rights of the backward communities vis-a-vis Nandy have been active participants in the violent anti-Mandal agitation that rocked Delhi and other parts of India two decades ago. This hypocritical attitude and type of media sensationalism has eroded the culture of free ideas and speech in India; it is unfortunate that all complex and nuanced arguments are being sacrificed at the altar of hunger for TRPs and two minutes of sensationalism.
It is against this intolerant culture that voices should be raised so that ideas and opinions remain unthrottled and free, and individuals are not forced to publicly apologise and face police action, as Nandy does, for crimes they have not committed. We, in solidarity with Ashis Nandy, stand against such kind of media violence and culture of intolerance.
