Demonstration against offensive matter about the great revolutionaries

August 4, 2006

Democratic Youth Organisation (DYO)'s 'squatting' demonstration

In one of the lessons in this years' syllabus for Xth standard (English medium), there is offensive matter about the great revolutionaries like Bhagatsingh, Rajguru and Sukhdev. Recently, on behalf of DYO, 'squatting' demonstration was organized to protest against the insult meted out to these revolutionaries and a representation was submitted to the Government for exclusion of that portion from the lesson.

In the book included by ICSE publishing company for their Xth standard syllabus (English medium), there is a lesson titled 'Revival of Terrorism'. In this lesson, there is objectionable matter about the great freedom fighters Shahid Bhagatsingh, Rajguru and Sukhdev. DYO, therefore, organized 'squatting' demonstration and demanded that the controversial portion may be excluded from the lesson as it can create misunderstanding in students' minds about these great revolutionaries. They also demanded that the publishers should tender a public apology. The demonstration ended with submission of a representation to the Government. The representation was accepted by Shri Guruchal, the Resident Collector on behalf of the Govt. and he promised the demonstrators thathe would convey their feelings to the Govt.

I AM NOT AN INDIAN AND THIS STATEMENT IS ‘POLITICALLY’ CORRECT.

If the laws are with the people who are having power and pelf
If the people are insensitive towards those who are not having source in the government and ministries
If you can never get justice even if you struggle for that
If the law of the nation never acts because it want the majority of the people on the road
If your grief is justified not with the facts but with peoples opinion
Then I would like leave all the political rights of that nation.
In year 2003 some backward caste students manhandled me and I bleed because they were cheating in the examination and I informed the same to the teacher. I was being admonished by those students to not to inform it to the authority or else they will file a case in SC/ST cell. Who was wrong???? Who insulted me??? The law has insulted me. I burnt the constitution of India then and that day.
Teacher went against me because they took it as the insult of the centre and the teachers. I do not want that friend to be punished but I do not want let my soul say every day that I did not do justice to myself. I have lost almost everything, now if there is anything left then that is to take revenge—burn the Indian flag.
I can not be a terrorist because every Individual is equally important for me, including myself. I do not want any one bleed for laws instead if the law has any human value it should save people bleeding, it should save every one suffering. I do not want any nation any country any religion now to join my identity with because I want to be a human being. I am not an Indian; I have born on this planet….as a human being. I neglect all political relationship with India….my relationship with India is of humanity like any other land on this earth. Yes!! I am a nihilist. I argued a lot! I pleaded a lot! I begged a lot!!! Now I want peace of my mind and soul.
