Nanaji Deshmukh's body donated to AIIMS
Nanaji Deshmukh is a person who needs no introduction. His sharp intellect and extraordinary organizing skill has put an indelible mark in Indian politics. Born on October 11,1916 in a modest Maharashtrian family at Kadoli, a small town in Parbhani district, Nanaji had little money to pay for his tuition fees and books. But he had such a burning zeal and desire for education and knowledge that he did not shy away from working as a vendor and selling vegetables to raise money for realising his objective.Nanaji was deeply inspired by Lokamanya Tilak and his nationalist ideology. He showed keen interest in social service and activities. His family was in close contact with Dr. Hedgewar who was a regular visitor to the family of Nanaji. He could discern an immense hidden potential in Nanaji and encouraged him to attend RSS shakahas. In 1940, after the death of Dr. Hedgewar, many youngsters inspired by him joined the RSS in Maharashtra. Nanaji was among those enthused youths who joined the RSS devoting their whole life in service to the Nation. He was sent to Uttar Pradesh as a Pracharak. At Agra he met Deendayalji for the first time. Later, Nanaji went to Gorakhpur as a pracharak where he took great pains to introduce Sangh ideology in the eastern UP. It was not an easy task at that time as the Sangh had no funds to meet even day-today expenses. He had to stay in a Dharmashala but had to keep on changing Dharmashalas as no one was allowed to stay there for more than three days consecutively. Ultimately, he was given shelter by Baba Raghavdas on the condition that he would also cook meals for him.Within three years, his hard work bore fruits and almost 250 Sangh Shakhas cropped up in and around Gorakhpur. Nanaji always laid great emphasis on education. He established India's first Saraswati Sishu Mandir at Gorakhpur in 1950. It reflects Nanaji's love for education and knowledge. When in 1947 the RSS decided to launch two journals "Rashtradharma" and "Panchjanya" and a newspaper called "Swadesh" Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee was assigned the responsibility of the editor and Shri Deendayalji was made the Margdharshak with Nanaji as the Managing Director. It was a challenging task as the organization was hard up for money to bring out the publications, yet it did never dampen their spirits and these publications gained popularity and recognition.Mahatma Gandhi's assassination led to imposition of ban on the RSS and publication work came to a grinding halt. A different strategy was adopted keeping the ban in mind and Nanaji was the brain behind underground publication work by the RSS those days. When the ban was lifted and it was decided to have a political organization, Jana Sangh came into being. Nanaji was asked by Shri Guruji to take charge of Bharatiya Jana Sangh in Uttar Pradesh as party Secretary. Nanaji had worked as RSS pracharak in Uttar Pradesh and his groundwork proved of a great help in organizing BJS at the grass roots. By 1957 BJS had established its units at each and every district in Uttar Pradesh and credit for this goes to the Nanaji who had extensively traveled all over the State. Soon, BJS became a force to reckon with in Uttar Pradesh. In 1967 BJS became the part of United Legislature Party Government headed by Chaudhary Charan Singh. Nanaji played a crucial role in evolving the alliance as he enjoyed good relations with Charan Singh and Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia. He was successful in bringing leaders of different political background on one platform to give Uttar Pradesh its first non-Congress government.A political giant, like Chandra Bhanu Gupta, had to face one of the biggest challenges of his life when Nanaji outwitted him not once but thrice. On one occasion, he planned a strategy to defeat the Congress nominee and CB Gupta's favorite in Rajya Sabha. When CB Gupta himself contested elections from Lucknow in 1957, Nanaji crafted an alliance with socialist groups and helped Babu Triloki Singh in registering an impressive win over Gupta. Shri Gupta faced another embarrassment when he was again defeated at Maudaha in Uttar Pradesh. In Uttar Pradesh BJS gained strength from Deendayalji's margdarhsan, Atalji's oratory skills and Nanaji's organizational work and it emerged as an important player in the State politics. Nanaji always shared good relations not only with his party colleagues but also with his Opponents. Shri CB Gupta, who suffered many humiliating, defeats at the hands of Nanaji, yet he continued to have great respect for him and called him 'Nana Phadanvis '. His relations with Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia changed the course of Indian politics. Once he invited Dr. Lohia in BJS karaykarta sammelan where he met Deendayalji for the first time and this association brought the BJS closer to socialist parties in exposing the Congress and its misrule.Nanaji actively participated in Bhoodan Movement started by Vinoba Bhave. By spending two months with Vinoba he was inspired by the success and appeal of the movement. When Jai Prakash Narayan gave the call for" Total Revolution" he responded by giving total support to this movement. When the Janata Party was formed Nanaji was one of its main architects. Janata Party stormed into power by sweeping off the Congress and Nanaji was elected from Balrampur parliamentary constituency in Uttar Pradesh. When he was offered ministerial berth by the then Prime Minister, Shri Morarjee Desai he politely refused it. For him politics was never a career but a mission. He was not the person who would stick to politics or office come what may. Of his own volition he announced his retirement from politics in presence of Jai Paraksh Narain and since then never looked back.Nanaji is now devoting his entire time to Deendayal Research Institute that he himself established way back in 1969. He established Chitarkoot Gramodya Vishwavidyalaya in Chitrakoot, India's first rural university and was its first Chancellor. NDA Government headed by Shri Atal Bihari Vajpyaee nominated him as an MP in Rajya Sabha in the year 1999 as recognition to his services to the nation.

Ban conversion. Act on Love Jihad
Ban conversion. Act on Love Jihad
Kerala HC makes a historic intervention
By S Chandrasekhar
The Kerala High Court Justice KT Sankaran in a landmark judgment on December 9, directed the Kerala government to enact laws to prevent conversions in the guise of love and romance. The court also denied bail to two jehadis-Shahansha and Sirajuddin who tried to convert MBA students to Islam in the guise of love. "Educational institutions where the younger generation is engaged in the pursuit of learning should not be the breeding ground of radical religion. There are clear indications of forceful religious conversion in the name of love and attempts to persuade girls who fell in love with Muslim boys to change religion," the Judge observed. The Justice rubbished the Kerala DGP’s report that Love Jihad was non-existent.
"Brilliant Hindus and Christians doing professional courses and from well-to-do families have fallen into the trap and got converted. 100 cases have been reported in Thiruvananthapuram and as per statistics 3000-4000 incidents have taken place during past four years", the court observed
The Judge also observed that Love Jihad is operational all over the country and has the blessings of several Muslim organisations.
The BJP and Hindu Aikya Vedi leader Kummanam Rajasekharan have welcomed the court judgment and have stated that it vindicated RSS/BJP/VHP stand. RSS ideologue, Padmasri P Parameswaran, praised the Judge for his bold stand.
Ban conversion in the guise of romance: HC
Express News ServiceFirst Published : 10 Dec 2009 02:34:00 AM ISTLast Updated :
KOCHI: Observing that there are indications of compulsory religious conversion under the pretext of love, the Kerala High Court on Wednesday directed the state government to consider whether a law should be enacted to prohibit such conversion.
Justice K T Sankaran made the observation while dismissing the anticipatory bail application filed by Shahansha and Sirjuddin, the two accused in a case of alleged compulsory religious conversion.
The duo is accused of trying to convert two MBA students to Islam under the guise of love.
The court said that educational institutions where the young generation is engaged in the pursuit of learning should certainly not be the breeding ground for religion.
After perusing the case diary and reports filed by various law enforcing agencies, the court held that there were indications of forceful religious conversion. DGP Jacob Punnoose submitted earlier that though no movement called Love Jehad or Romeo Jehad had been identified in the state, there was reason to suspect concerted attempts to persuade girls who fell in love with Muslim boys to change their religion.
One of the 18 reports submitted by the DGP said that outfits such as the National Democratic Front, the Popular Front of India and the Campus Front had roots in college campuses.
The report also mentions the Muslim Youth Forum and the Shaheen Force. A Special Branch report said that the organisations trap brilliant upper caste Hindu and Christian girls from well-to-do families, especially those in professional courses. The report says there were more than 100 incidents in Thiruvananthapuram district alone.
"As per the statistics available around 3000-4000 such incidents took place during the last four years," the court said.
"The report says that Love Jehad organisations operate all over the country and are believed to have started their activities with the blessings of Muslim organisations," the court said.

Bishop gets Gandhi award for public apology to Hindus
WASHINGTON: Reverend J Jon Bruno, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles, California, was awarded the Hindu American Foundation's annual Mahatma Gandhi Award for the Advancement of Religious Pluralism at the HAF's Sixth Capitol Hill reception in early October.
Bruno had last year offered a public apology to Hindus "for centuries-old acts of religious discrimination, including attempts to convert them".
The Reverend Dr Gwynne Guibord, officer of Ecumenical and Inter-religious Concerns of the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles and Theological Consultant for Interfaith Relations for the Episcopal Church, US, accepted the award on behalf of Bruno and the other two awardees -- Reverend Karen MacQueen, a priest in the Episcopal Church and Associate Rector of St Paul's Episcopal Church in Pomona, California and herself.
In his acceptance letter read out at the event, Bruno again apologised profusely for the centuries-old discrimination against Hindus.
"As Mahatma Gandhi taught, cooperation and trust require a sincere commitment to truth," Bruno said. "Mindful of our duty to the truth, I believe that the world cannot afford for us to repeat the errors of our past, in which we Christians often sought to dominate rather than to serve. In order to take another step in building trust between our two great religious traditions, I renew the apology that I have offered to the Hindu community for the religious and racial discrimination that Christians have directed towards Hindus for far too long."
In her remarks, Guibord spoke of how touched she and her fellow awardees were at the "special and unexpected" recognition. "As the climate in our country becomes less and less civil and more violent in rhetoric and action, the work that we do together and separately becomes ever more urgent and important," she said.
"Now more than ever we, as a community that seeks to protect the integrity of both our religions and our democracy, must stand firm in our collective commitment to eradicate hate, discrimination, defamation and dehumanisation of any and all of God's created."
Also receiving the Mahatma Gandhi Award for the Advancement of Religious Pluralism was the American Jewish Committee represented by Richard Foltin, legislative director and counsel in the AJC's Office of Government and International Affairs in Washington, DC, and Nissim Reuben, programme officer on Indian-Jewish American Relations. The AJC was recognised for its work in building bridges between the Jewish and Hindu communities worldwide.
"At a time of international conflicts in which the name of God is too often invoked as justification, it is hard to think of a time when Gandhi's inspiring message of nonviolence and tolerance has not been more pertinent," Foltin said.
Recalling the various occasions when the AJC and HAF have backed each other when their respective religions were under threat, Foltin said such cooperation is "the lesson that each of our faiths teach us".
US Congressman Frank Pallone, founder of the Congressional Caucus on India and Indian Americans, was presented with a Special Recognition Award for his services to the cause. US Congressman Danny Davis, Illinois Democrat and former chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus, who has taken up the cause of Tamils in Sri Lanka [ Images ] on the urging of Sri Lankan Tamil organisations supported by the HAF, said from his perspective of being an African American, his sympathies lay with the displaced Tamils, and vowed to do whatever he could to help.
The Pride of the Community Award was presented to Anju Bhargava, the only Hindu member of President Obama's [ Images ] Advisory Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, who said the infrastructure of the Hindu-American community needs to develop further.
Bhargava, the founder/convener of Hindu American Seva Charities, which promotes development and partnership of Seva Centers to provide social services in faith based institutions, said, "One of the things that I am working with as part of the Advisory Council is bringing an awareness of the post-1965 immigrants and especially those of the dharmic tradition -- that our way of being and the way we worship and the way we practice is different from the Judeo-Christian model. So when the government reaches out to the faith-based community and it has a model in its mind, it needs to really look at the other groups that are there and understand the differences in the development."
HAF managing director Suhag Shukla, who emceed the function, said Hindu Americans across the nation increasingly saw the HAF as "a key stakeholder and an institution that reflects their own coming of age".
Earlier in the day, members of the HAF's board of directors and senior staffers had meetings with key US Senators and House members to press for increased scrutiny on aid appropriations for Pakistan. On domestic issues, the HAF backed the demand of other faith-based groups for fairness and compassion in legal immigration legislation, especially as it applies to religious workers, J-1 exchange physicians and widows and widowers of US citizens.
The religious worker Special Immigration program, as well as the J-1 waiver that gives state health agencies the ability to recruit foreign physicians to underserved rural and inner-city communities, are set to expire. The HAF also advocated for an end to the "widow penalty", which places spouses of US citizens who die prior to the end of a two-year conditional period, in deportation.

7 farmers committed suicide in Orissa
BHUBANESWAR: The toll of farmer suicides in Orissa has gone up to seven with yet another 60-year old farmer committed suicide in Rangadhipa village under Hemgiri police station in Sundargarh district.
The farmer was identified as Mahasai Narang and consumed pesticide.Villagers attributed crop failure as the prime reason for Mahasai to commit suicide but the local administration maintained that financial problems forced the farmer to take such drastic step.With the death of Mahasai, so far seven farmers have committed suicide in the state during October primarily due to crop failure and pest attacks on the crop.
The State Government, which is under tremendous pressure, however announced loan package for the farmers.
Orissa Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik had already ordered a high level administrative inquiry into the series of suicides of the farmers by the Agricultural Production Commissioner (APC) who has been directed to make field visit and inquire into the incidents.
The Opposition political parties in Orissa, while holding the Chief Minister and Agriculture Minister Damodar Rout responsible for the suicides of the farmers, demanded compensation of Rs five lakh to the next of kin of the deceased and a job to one member of the family.
The Opposition has also demanded to declare all the affected blocks in the state as drought-hit and waive debts of the farmers living in distress.
A fact finding team of the ruling Biju Janata Dal, which visited some of the deceased farmers' villages, submitted a report to the Chief Minister stating that the crop failure and pest attack were the prime reasons for the farmers to commit suicide.
The team has urged the government to launch welfare measures for the farmers to prevent occurrence of such tragic incident in future.
