Friends,

AN OLD JOKE:
   In 1980 some Sikhs were caught in Indira Gandhi International Airport,
   while trying to sneak into the airport. And when the authorities checked,
   they found passports and visas issued in the name of Republic of Khalistan.
   It was dubbed a JOKE in those days. 
   The PUNCH LINE is understood after one full DECADE.


FROM MYTH TO REALITIES:
   Today we all the know situation in Kashmir. And it is Bloody. But how was
   life in Kashmir 10 years back and twenty years back. Or for that matter 
   since Independence. What were the same tactics that were followed there?
   the following  incidents though look independent, all are interconnected 
   with a common motive. 

              I  was amused when I heard that muslim groups in the presence of 
   the then Chief Minister Sheikh Abdullah,raised Pro Pakistani  slogans
   during cricket matches in  Srinagar. Special rights for Muslims were provided
   in the name of Article 370.  Pakistani flags were hoisted on Masjids and
   Lal Chowk in Srinagar. The then regimes never bothered. Indian flags were 
   burnt. Anti Indian propoganda was continuing from masjids, and Madrasas. 
   Were they brought to the law?  Temples were destroyed and descrated. 
   Kashmiri Hindus were attacked and Kidnapped. Republic day celebrations were 
   boycotted. Names of places were changed.  CONSTITUTION BOOKS  WERE BURNT. 
   And the call for a seperate ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF KASHMIR is being given. 

   Successive Congress Governments managed to overlook these and 
   fished in that pool for their political ends.  And tried to appease its 
   MUSLIM vote banks. CONGRESS Leaders opposed any  action against these 
   activities,  as they would send wrong signals to Muslims.

   THE PRESENT DAY SITUATION IN KASHMIR IS A RESULT. 

   The similarities between insurgencey activities in Kashmir with their roots
   and  the present day situation in KERALA can be guaged. The effrontery with 
   which the present day regime, is placating these muslim groups can be 
   seen by the incidents mentioned in this article. 

   Kashmir started this way. Sindh started off this way. Pakistan started on 
   similar lines. And the whole episode of PARTITION had the very same roots.

   TOMORROW KERALA WILL STARTING OFF THE SAME WAY.

   HOW CAN WE HELP OURSELF FROM THIS SITUATION?

KERALA in Path of KASHMIR? (KASHMIR batalo kerala)

KERALA too is now facing the problems of communalism. Islamic Swayamsevak
Sangh and other 20 organisations  are working with  Anti-Nationalist
objectives. These Organisations which openly support the Islamic Fundamentalist
Secession movement in Kashmir are today very active in Kerala. These 
organisations dream to create a "ISLAMIC HOLY NATION in INDIA". Audio cassetes 
are today available thru out KERALA which propogate these theories and 
support these views.

  Abdul Nazar Moududi, 27, finished his education in New Delhi and is 
currently working as a principal of a Arabic College KARUNAGAPALLI in 
KOLLAM (Quillon) dist. The most deadliest of these organisations ISS is now 
having a base of 2000 branches, is now working assiduously in Northern KERALA
especially in the muslim dominated MALLAPURAM.

 The founder of ISS, Abdul Nazar is a good orator. Through his oratorial skills
and explosive speeches he has created a mass base for himself among the 
illiterate , poor muslim teenagers. Muslims are being treated second class 
citizens, muslims women are being raped, there is no protection for ISLAMIC 
prayer sites, there is no religious freedom - these are some of his topics
to attract Muslims. These speeches are attracting mulim youth and they are thus
attracted and are becoming members of "JEHAD SENA".


  **************************************************************************
 An ISS unit should have a minimum of 11 members. This number is particularly
significant  to Muslims. There are 11 rules which all muslims have to follow 
in ISLAM. Any muslim intending to become a member of ISS should be ready to 
pray 5 times a day.
  **************************************************************************

 While South Kerala is active with these, Northern Kerala - particularly 
 MALLAPURAM dist. remains a fortress for Indian Union Muslim Leagus. IUML is 
 running  a parallel administration where SHARIAT LAWS are being implemented,
 Movies are banned. About twelve theatres belonging to Hindus have been 
 destroyed. Police remain a silent spectators to these. Muslim women are forced
 to wear BURAKHAs and NAMES of different places are being changed to reflect
 the Islamic domination in those areas.

 Former minister and a close aide  of Chief Minister KARUNAKARAN,  
 Shri GANGA DHARAN says "Hindus in MALLAPURAM are living with fear every 
 second. Criminal cases are generally unresolved. Kidnapping of women belonging
 to Scheduled Castes, their Rapes are becomin common. Dacoities, attrocities
 are small events. Even though POLICE know the culprits they are helpless".

 The situation in the state is deteriorating day by day. Hindus women are 
 abandoning applying the KUMKUM (sindhoor) for safety reasons. Recently 
 Vedanahalli High School incident, TIRUCHOOR Dist. the incident of wiping 
 away KUMKUM (sindhoor) from the forehead of Hindu student by some muslim
 students has caused lot of furore in the surrounding places.

The state government, keepinmg in view of the Muslim vote bank is trying to 
overlook these incidents. A new RENTAL law ammendment has been implemented, 
which  excludes the minorty Religious places from RENT REGULATORY  RULES.  
Henceforth only Hindu Religious places would be covered by that. Muslim 
dominant areas like Mallapuram, is witnessing a increase in attacks on Hindu
TEMPLES, and desctruction. Many masjids have now become a place for PAKISTANI
spies. Attacks on Hindus have become common. In PALLAKKAD, MALLAPURAM 
Pakistani flags were hoisted on the 1992 REPUBLIC DAY.
 
  Kondotti, Pookattur, Arikodi, Mongam, tripanachi, Morayanoor, Vandur have 
become the HOUSE of these activities. The people involved have the latest
telecommunication systems. News from  PAKISTAN, IRAN, IRAQ, Kashmir, Punjab,
Afghanistan reaches these places with in few hours. Loud speakers in Mosques,
pamphlets, wall posters are put to use and the news spreads immediately.

 Last year, Swami Chinmayananda, was attacked while on his way  to a Gita
 discourse at MANJERI. In ITAVANNAPARA village, Shri P. Parameshwaran, 
 a well known social activist and an Intellectual was insulted while
 conducting a social  meeting , the audio systems broken and the meeting was
 disrupted for playing his SPEECHES over the Audio Systems in  the public 
 meeting. SEVEN people were seriously injured in those riots. Even then 
 POLICE remained silent spectators. 

 The statue of Shri NARAYANA GURU, a person who has sacrificed his life for 
 the upliftment of WEEKER sections in society was broken down by the members
 of Jehad sena. Shri Narayaa Guru is particularly known for his activities 
 for economic upliftment of poor, and Social, Spiritual, Eduactional, 
 Economical developpment, for which he worked till his death.

 Attacks on HINDU TEMPLES are being executed systematically. Once people 
 assemble in Masjids for prayers, nobody else is allowed to use any AUDIO 
 systems in the surrounding localities. In VIRANGODI, the annual celebartions
 of the Virangodi Temple goddess and the procession were disturbed and had
 to be abandoned. In NANDINI village, the STATUES of TEMPLE diety
 TIRURANGA has been stolen.  The PANNIYOOR a Shiva Temple has been destroyed,
 including its PRAHARI (compund wall). The Vishnu temple in Itaval Kaladi,
 the Subhramanya temples in Itakkara , Chengara, Ganapathi temple in 
 KURUVARAKUNDA have been destroyed by anti-social elements.

 There are thousands of  new MASJID buildings which have been constructed 
 through out Kerala. Hundreds of Madarasa, Maktabs (Islamic Schools) have 
 sprung out. Thousands of Moulvis, Arabic and Urdu teachers have come
 from foriegn Countries, and other parts of the INDIA. These organisations
 are spreading anti-National philosophies and theories among the students. 

Recently in Kozhikod, ISS conducted a seminar on "Hindu Fascist Movemenmts".
Central Minister Mr. Arjun Singh, Cong-I M.P Mani Shankar Iyer also 
participated . RSS and other organisations were condemned. Mr. Ibrahim
Sulaiman Sait, President Indian Union Muslim League, asked muslim youth to take 
to arms to protect their rights. He threatened that the MOPLA situation of 1921
would be repeated in KERALA. "ISLAM the only SOLUTION TO BHARAT" became the 
THEME SLOGAN of the day.

  ***********************************************************************
  In Muslim majority areas many illegal arms and ammunition manufacturing 
  units have sprout up. Muslim youth are trained to use Pistols and Revolvers.
  POOKOTHUMPATAM, VANDIPETTA villages have become the centres of these illegal
  arms and Swords manufacturing units.
  ***********************************************************************

These fundamentalist organisations are having the blessings of PAKISTAN. 
PAKISTANI officials are frequenting KERALA secretly. Some fifty Kashmiri 
Muslim families, settled in KOVALAM beach, are also assisting these Groups.
These organisations are being helped by countries like Iran and Iraq. 
Immigrant Muslims settled in Gulf also fund large amounts of PETRO-DOLLARS
for these activities.

   In general the situation in Kerala is slowly going out of control.
IUML is succeding in using the political parties to meet its ends. ISS and
other organisations have given a call of seperate MUSLIM KERALA REGION and
extra rights for protection of Islamic interests and Muslims. Reservations and
quotas are demanded for minorites.

  This situation needs to be brought under control. Other wise this may turn 
this SOUTHERN state into another KASHMIR. The ISS seems to have these plans too
for its future. Abdul Nazari has requested foriegn countries for the much 
required CAPITAL for these activities. Both the Central and State governments 
need to take a BOLD step, forgetting its temporary political goals and try
to save the country for this emerging new PROBLEM.
