Communal Violence Bill

Congress says, Unelected civil society members should not be dictating to elected representatives on what they should legislate. But If Anna Hazare can't dictate about Lokpal Bill, then how NAC can draft bill like 'Communal Violence Bill'.

It is surprising why an unelected body like the National Advisory Council (NAC), which is home to Sonia Gandhi groupies, was allowed to draft a Bill that is so crucial to communal harmony.

The National Advisory Council (NAC) headed by Sonia Gandhi has placed in the public domain the draft of a proposed legislation titled Prevention of Communal and Targeted Violence Bill, 2011.

The NAC-drafted Communal Violence Bill is a recipe for unmitigated disaster. In the guise of promoting communal harmony it promotes rank communalism. In the guise of protecting minorities, it attacks Hindu rights. This Bill will strike at the very foundation of liberty and legitimise criminal misdeeds of Muslims. It must not become law.

IT is a critically flawed move to usurp the powers of the state governments, devastate the federal structure of the country and create schism among different communities. With this bill, Central Govt. can interfere in states, barred by the Constitution.

THE obnoxious Communal Violence Bill 2011 drafted by the extra-constitutional “NAC” Chaired by Sonia Gandhi is based on the horrendous presumption that communal trouble is created only by the majority community and never by the minority community.

The manipulative syntax of the bill smacks of a furtive agenda to tilt the scales in favour of a specific community at the cost of the majority and violates the basic tenet of equality before the law, says Vivek Gumaste.

If NAC's Communal Violence Bill in enacted, India will witness a parallel Government committed to the principle that some Indians are more equal than others. It will open the floodgates for settling private scores and political vendetta.

In a regime dominated by scams, scandals and corruption, the Congress has zeroed in on the Communal Violence Bill as the piece de resistance of UPA II in a bid to shift the focus from its own corruption to taking on the BJP and in the process isolating it from its own allies.

BJP leader Arun Jaitley argues that it 'Prevention of Communal and Targeted Violence (Access to Justice and Reparations) Bill, 2011' is a dangerous and discriminatory bill which presumes that the majority community is always to blame for communal violence
