Why the Indian Left Is Celebrating the Republican Setback
The Communists in India, especially in Kerala, have gone gaga over the defeat of Republican Party in the mid-term election held in US. One is surprised by the way reporters owing allegiance to the Communists and Maoists describe the loss suffered by President Trump and the GOP. There are a number of courtesans of the CPIM and the CPI, who are introduced by the Left leaning mass media as international political observers. While singing peans to the US voters who endorsed the Democratic Party, these walking encyclopedias are silent on how the US election result would affect the ordinary Indians.
It is not going to make any difference in India whether the US is ruled by the Republicans or the Democrats. Both the political outfits, though differ in colors and symbols, are only concerned about the commercial interests of the US. Though many ethnic Indians have made it to the Congress as Democratic Party candidates in the recent elections, none of them are going to help India. The attitude of Democrats towards India came out in the open when the then President Bill Clinton expressed shock and displeasure over the country conducting the 1998 Pokhran nuclear experiments.
In its bid to throttle India’s scientific and technical progress, the Democratic government had declared an embargo on sharing of scientific and technological expertise to India. The US Government ushered in the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR) and denied exports of engineering and scientific instruments to India under the pretext that they come under the dual technology category. Not content with that, the US government saw to it that Indian scientists were denied entry to international scientific seminars.
The Democratic Party Government led by Bill Clinton openly took the side of Pakistan during the Kargil conflict. They blocked India from accessing the Global Positioning Service (GPS) owned by the US Department of Defense jeopardizing the lives of thousands of air passengers travelling from and into India. After the Pokhran Tests of May 1998, the US tried all the tricks in its armor to force India sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. During the tenure of P V Narasimha Rao as Prime Minister, they forced him to cancel the decision to go ahead with Nuclear Tests in Pokhran. The mid-term election this time saw Pramila Jayapal, a Malayali woman, returning to the Congress. Though born in India to Malayali parents, Jayapal is known for her virulent hatred towards India. She opposed Article 370 that abrogated the special status of Jammu & Kashmir. It should be remembered that the Indian Foreign minister had cancelled a meeting with her for obvious reasons. Though Pakistani-aided terrorists had umpteen times attacked India by suicide missions, the US government of the day enjoyed the “tamasha” silently. It has to be accepted that President Trump showed the basic empathy to condole the victims of the Pahalgam attack that claimed 26 Hindus. But his second term saw Trump turning against India for reasons known to him only.
No Indians will oppose Trump’s “US First. America First” or “Make America Great Again” (MAGA) policies. In fact there is a strong feeling that Trump was replicating Narendra Modi, the first political leader in India who coined the term “India First, Nation First”. It is this war cry that elevated him to a cult status and since then there was no looking back for Modi.
Though there are few opinion makers in the US who stand for strong India-US ties, there are intelligence experts who always look at India with hawkish eyes. Years ago, (sometime in 2009 or 2010) I remember interviewing a US policy maker who had come to IIT Madras to deliver a speech. I may be pardoned for not remembering this man’s name as old age is catching up with me. In the course of the chat, he said the bringing down of the Babri Masjid was an act of terrorism and this made me laugh. The gentleman stopped his discourse then and there and said that he doesn’t want to speak to me. That was the end of the interview.
These developments prove that one need not bother about who wins in US election. It is not make any changes in the lives of Indians. Those who are exceptionally intelligent and professionally qualified will be handpicked by the US and they will make it big in that country. Fortunately for the US, there is no reservation based on caste or tribe in that country unlike India where everything runs on caste and community lines.
The unprecedented joy over the election results seen in Indian comrades is because of their failure to learn from past experience. They are under the impression that the Leftists in the Democratic Party are the harbingers of the impending Red Revolution in this democratic country. Had the Americans listened to what Senator Joseph McCarthy had said during his lifetime , the Republicans and Democrats would have remained the same. McCarthy had warned the Americans about the infiltration of communists and socialists into the Federal Government and other system of administration. This is what happened in India. The Indian National Congress launched by a foreigner by name A O Hume became the launch pad for the Communists. The communists formed a cartel by name Congress Socialist Party even as they remained as Congress Party members. The communists world over is known for their treachery and this was what happened in India. Now we in India remain silent spectators as executive and judiciary has been taken over by the communists. Barring few judges in the Supreme Court, High Courts and subordinate courts, there is a strong communist presence in our judiciary. During the Congress rule, the Marxists saw to it that their recruits got into the civil service because of the strong personal ties between leaders of the Congress and the communist parties.
Indian history itself was manipulated by them and the details of the real freedom fighters who sacrificed their lives for India’s independence from the colonial masters were obliterated from the country’s history. The comrades were helped in the task by experts in manufacturing history… The likes of Pramila Thapar, Irfan Habib, K N Panicker played havoc with the original history and substituted it with facts provided by their political masters..
