The discussion on Mumbai riots has been going on for a few days in
this forum. Netters are trying to evaluate who is behind this violence
and conspiracy theories are being presented! The one by Parthasarathy
was absolutely humorous!

Anyway, here is what I think:

The trouble in Mumbai started on December 1, before the removal of the
disputed structure in Ayodhya. The Deputy Municipal Commissioner (DMC), Shri
Khairnar was accused of blasphemy! Why? Because he razed some illegally
constructed shops and Muslims in that area claimed that 'Quran' was
kept in one of the shops. The situation became tense and Muslims demanded
an enquiry in this matter. I don't know about the outcome of this enquiry.
Netters from Mumbai may be remembering the Chembur riots last year, which
started after DMC removed unauthorised platform built for a Peer or something
like that.

The Muslims were angry because of DMC's actions. The Ayodhya incident,
of course, came in handy. Two police constables were beaten by angry
Muslim mobs. The police retaliated and most of the deaths were caused
by police firing.

===============================================================================



So according to Janab Bonde one must infer that the muslims were not reacting
to the demolition in Ayodhya; they were just using the excuse to vent their
feelings about the more important issue about the "blasphemy" by 
Janab Khairnar. Nice theory. (Pat on the back)

===============================================================================

Naik submitted a state intelligence report linking
                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
a no. of state ministers to Dubai-based criminal Dawood Abraham.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
And within a few days, with the support of Home minister S.B. Chavan,
Naik fired 11 ministers, all Pawar supporters. The PM Rao also
encouraged this move, it is alleged. Whatever the case, the party's
image has suffered a great damage by recent shenanigans in the state.
===============================================================================



How is he privy to state intelligence reports ?
Who's his mole in Sudhakar Naik's govt. ?!!!






Bonde:
===============================================================================
Some newspapers reported that Muslim mafia gangs were
also involved in these riots. With the well known connections of Pawar
group with Dawood Abraham et al, I have every reason to believe that
these riots were further fueled by these politicians.
===============================================================================



These damned "Mozzlem" guys involve themselves only in mafia activities.
What say Janab Bonde sahab, lets cleanse this "Mozzzzlem" menace once and for
all. In this way you can also get rid of Dawood "Abraham" Ibrahim's buddy
Sharad.





Bonde:
===============================================================================
And then came Shivsena. Thakre, in his usual style, started shouting agaist
Muslims. It was slowly directed towards Tamils in Mumbai. Who the hell
                                                          ^^^^^^^^^^^^
do these Shivsena goons think they are? They have further helped
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
increasing the violence. But we don't expect anything more from
these goondas.

So, as always, some Muslim criminals, politicians, mafia gangs
and Shivsena are responsible for this situation. I do not have
sympathy for any of them. Police should take sternest action
against these miscreants. 
================================================================================

Right. How dare Thakre shout [against Hindu Tamils.] 
[He must ask his followers to take up arms against muslims only.]


Why has the Left and the JD been left out. They will certainly take serious
exception on this insult.

On a serious note, why have the BJP/RSS/VHP/JI/ML not included in this 
honors list ?

I can understand your sympathies for the BJP/RSS/VHP, but I am most surprised
at the exclusion of at least the ML/JI if not the ISS and of course Pakistan.
