Let India Develop – A proactive movement gets
Intellectually violent reaction From TCSFH
Our
response
It is not to our
surprise that Marx believers behind the anti-IDRF Propaganda are again at their
violent best. It is a classic attitude of
such people to see anything that doesn’t suit them, from the eyes of
communism. However it is high time to
expose the biased attitude of these people and their anti civic activities and
to subsequently stop their anti-developmental activities.
As most of you are aware that we started this campaign with the concern
that some disgruntled Indians with active support from anti-India elements, are
bringing India’s development at halt with misleading campaigns. “Sabrang Communications”, Mumbai, India,
which publicized the report, also happens to be the organization which, for
years, maintained the distorted map of India (with significant Indian portion
shown in Pakistani territory) as their logo.

As we have said in our petition, today they are against IDRF, tomorrow
it can be any other organization that doesn’t suit their needs and doesn’t
follow their bankrupt ideology.
While acknowledging “Let India Develop campaign” and its popularity,
TCSFH (www.stopfunidnghate.org) delivered response on its web site with
following comments on our campaign:
2) Signatories on a counter-petition launched
by a group called "Let India Develop" http://www.letindiadevelop.org are almost exclusively from Hindu upper
castes. Contrast this with the diverse body of people who have signed the
"Stop Funding Hate Campaign."….
3) Interestingly "Let India
Develop" claims to represent the true heirs of Mahatma Gandhi, who
incidentally fell to the bullet of Nathuram Godse, so glorified by "Hindu
Unity" a sympathizer of IDRF. How can both Godse's heirs and Mahatma
Gandhi's heirs support IDRF? Which of them is the true face of IDRF? An easy
question to answer, particularly as Let India Develop, IDRF and Hindu Unity
have the same volunteer base. The same individuals present different persona on
these different websites!
(Ref: www.stopfundinghate.org)
First of all, as far as we are concerned, people supporting India’s
development, signed our petition.
After reading statement #2 above, one can easily see who is looking at
each and every Indian with glasses of caste and religion. Is it Let India Develop, IDRF or is it this
group of Marxists? These people are
dividing society not only on the basis of religion and caste but also on the
basis of professional background– such as researchers, scholars etc. In
conclusion, as always they are creating division in the society for their
intellectual satisfaction. They are not
looking for peace and harmony but conflict at all steps. Hence, we think these are the modern
breed of same culprits who in the past have created classes all over the world.
Response to statement #3: It is
utterly irresponsible to malign any individual or organization in a very
irrelevant manner. Just because someone
who murdered Gandhiji happened to be a Hindu, one cannot blame all the Hindus
or some organizations, even after so many years. It is as good as blaming all Muslims for 9/11 attack. Also then with the same logic, should we
conclude that all communists are murderers because some of them were
responsible for taking law in their hands causing deaths of innumerous innocent
people all over the world to justify their ideology or demands?
However, we think such discussion will lead no where and we are not
interested in going in any such political discussion and discussions about the
violent past of our opponent’s ideology.
As far as their laughable claim regarding comments
on our website: We found that some
people displayed their intolerance and/or used indecent language, so we decided
to eliminate responses and signatures that were not relevant to the cause. Let India Develop is a responsible campaign
and hence we could not tolerate words of hatred or indecency. Also when someone submits an entry, it means
that the person has read our petition and supports our cause. In contrast, it has been also observed that
people who are commenting on our campaign are editing each and every signature
on their website!
Unlike our friends at TCSFH, we started the sign campaign not for
publicity or as number game, but to create awareness in people who love India,
about the ideology that has become a barrier in India’s development – social
and economic.
And again we emphasize that our campaign is against those who are
creating obstacles in India’s development.
We are committed to a strong and developed India that can be the beacon
for the world in all aspects – science, technology, humanity, philosophy and
culture.
Our love for India and our desire to Let India Develop is not against
any other country or people. Hence we
would like to challenge the campaigners of Hate to talk only about India’s
development without dividing the society.
We would like to challenge these Hate Campaigners and Marx Believers to
state:
- their views about India’s development and views about India’s
national integrity – regional and political - in unequivocal terms.
- their opinions about the terrorist menace that India is facing in
Jammu and Kashmir and in Northeastern states.
- their views about terrorist menace that the developed as well as
developing world is facing especially since 9/11, and finally
We also urge these people to do some work without thinking of classes,
castes – work for sheer development of society. Being true followers of Gandhiji, though we pity these ignorant,
we do not hate our opponents who are clinging on to the failed concept of
communism. We certainly want this failed ideology to stay away from the path of
India’s development. We request these
people to abandon the failed concepts that are creating negative attitude in
their intellect, dividing the society and adopt a constructive mindset that
will help develop India and the humanity at large.
