இந்தியா மீது ஏவப்பட்டுள்ள கள்ளநோட்டு பயங்கரவாதம்

இந்தியாவில் சுற்றுக்கு விடுவதற்காக ஐ.எஸ்.ஐ என்ற பாகிஸ்தான் உளவு நிறுவனம் பிரிண்டிங் பிரஸ் வைத்து கள்ள நோட்டு உற்பத்தி செய்து இந்தியாவில் சுற்றுக்கு விட்டுள்ளது.

இஸ்லாமிய பயங்கரவாதத்துக்கு இந்த பணமே செலவு செய்யபப்டுவதாகவும் கூறப்படுகிறது.

காங்கிரஸ் ஆட்சி செய்யும் இந்த கடந்த வருடங்களில் இந்த பிரச்னை பூதாகரமாகியுள்ளது.

இஸ்லாமிய ஓட்டுவங்கிக்காக அவர்கள் மனம் கோணக்கூடாது என்று இந்த பிரச்னையை ஒன்றும் செய்யாமல் கள்ள நோட்டு மூலம் இந்திய மக்களை பஞ்சை பராரிகளாகவும் பொருளாதார வீழ்ச்சியையும் உருவாக்க சோனியாவின் காங்கிரஸ் அரசு முனைந்துள்ளதா என்ற கேள்வி எழுகிறது.

Fake currency portends economic upheaval..?

Fake currency, amounting to is currently afloat in the Indian banking system. Fake Money Detector Machines (FMDM) have become a common sight at show rooms, multiplex counters, post offices, petrol pumps and even fast food joints across the country. When people come in large numbers, checking each Rs.500 note (most ‘nakli’ notes are in five hundred denominations) is never easy. So no surprise ‘nakli’ notes are swelling in number. Official estimates are that Rs 1, 69,000 crore worth of fake currency is in circulation in India.

If one is found in possession of the bogus notes, he/she will be penalized or even jailed, in case he/she fails to identify the source of the fake notes, because this is the law of the land. Instead of tackling the main offenders, it is the general public who are at the receiving end. One is not sure if the money withdrawn from an ATM of any nationalized bank or SBI or RBI is genuine. So we are face- to- face with a near panic situation.

Frankly, there exists a huge gap between the ‘seizure’ and the actual circulation of the fake notes, being ‘imported’ into India through the borders along Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal and from the Gulf region. Most if not significant percentage of this ‘parallel money’ is pumped into the real estate market noticeably in Mumbai, Delhi and Pune.

In recent months Pakistan-trained terrorists have been caught red-handed with huge amount of fake currency. Passengers travelling from Pakistan and Nepal into India have also been found carrying wads of bogus notes. Police brass familiar with the menace say that initially the circulation of the fake currency was limited, and was noticed in the troubled state of Jammu and Kashmir, where it went almost undetected because of the administrative procrastination and corruption. Those responsible for the nation’s security and connected with the unearthing of the problem were corrupted to hush up the matter. For years, the racket remained even unreported.

Now the ‘naklis’ are spread all over the country. In one recent case, fake currency, amounting to nearly Rs three crore was found stashed in chests of the SBI and ICICI bank in Uttar Pradesh. Police have also recovered Rs 7.21 lakh from the residence of a cashier, which included counterfeit notes worth Rs five lakh. The investigating officials believe that the ‘recovery’ is only a tip of the iceberg. Their conjecture is that banking system is being used by ‘insiders’ to circulate fake currency. And it is another ISI bid to bleed India profusely.

ISI’s game plan is to finance terrorism in India at almost zero cost or to say at India’s cost. The main expenditure for the ISI is the printing machine. And this cost is recovered when fake notes are exchanged for a genuine currency at 30 to 40 per cent discount on the face value. Interrogation of suspected people in Mumbai and Delhi has revealed that at least one printing press operates in Pakistan under the ISI, ‘exclusively for printing fake Indian currency’. There might be several such machines- some even in India.

Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) has been investing in commodity markets and ‘prospecting’ in real estate, to fund its operations. This is known to the government long before the US sent its cautionary advisory last year. National Security Advisor M K Narayanan has also gone public with the warning that stock markets were being ‘manipulated’ by the terrorist outfits to raise funds for their operations. Stock exchanges in Mumbai and Chennai have reported that ‘fictitious or notional companies’ were engaged in stock market operations. Some of these companies were later traced to terrorist outfits.

If according to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh “Naxalism is the single biggest internal security challenge ever faced by our country…” the counterfeit currency in circulation in abundance is more serious and worrisome. It can lead to a disastrous situation. The question is: can we expect ‘deliverance’ from a government which has admitted the dire fact that its ‘writ’ no longer runs in parts of 160 districts affected by the Left-wing extremism, with naxalites converting them into ‘liberal zones’ and taking upon themselves functions of the state administration and police.

Says P C Alexander, former Maharashtra Governor: “A state is not considered a failed one merely because its record in socio-economic development may be poor. The category of failed states would include countries whose institutions of governance have become incapable of discharging the basic duties expected of a state, such as ensuring peace and security…” Anyone listening on the Raisina Hill.

காங்கிரஸ் ஆளும் மஹாராஷ்டிராவில் வட மாநில மக்கள் மீது வன்முறை- பாஜக கண்டனம்

ராஜ் தாக்கரேவின் கட்சியினர் வடக்கு மாநில மக்கள் மீது வன்முறையை கட்டவிழ்த்து விட்டதை எதிர்த்து பாஜக குரல் கொடுத்துள்ளது.

Maharashtra govt. should take action: BJP
Mumbai (PTI): Lashing out at the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) for triggering violence in the city for "political gains", the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Tuesday asked the Congress-led Maharashtra government to take stern steps to stop it.

"The attacks on people from specific community is meant to gain electoral advantage which the BJP would not allow at any cost," said Mumbai BJP President Prakash Mehta.

Both the Samajwadi Party as well as the MNS are trying to incite people for their own gains. In this process if the law and order situation deteriorates, the responsibility rests solely on the SP, MNS and the Democratic front government.

He said the BJP condemns the clashes and demands strong action against the perpetrators.

Injured VHP leader alleges Congress leader behind attack
26 Dec 2007, 0127 hrs IST,PTI


BHUBANESWAR: VHP leader Swami Laxmanananda Saraswati, who was injured in an attack in Kandhmal district, which led to large scale violence and arson in the district, on Tuesday night alleged that a senior Congress leader was behind the attack on him.

Eighty-year-old Saraswati, who led an anti-conversion movement was shifted to the SCB Medical College Hospital at Cuttack from Darinigibadi government hospital, told reporters that a group of villagers launched an attack on him on Monday at the instruction of the Congress leader.

"They attacked to eliminate me," he said adding this was for the seventh time that they failed to kill him.

Saraswati, who is a member of the VHP's 'margadarshak mandali', was attacked by a group of villagers while he was on the way to Brahmanigaom on Monday.

His driver and personal security guard were seriously injured in the incident and his car badly damaged.

While Saraswati was admitted at Darinigibadi government hospital, his security guard was rushed to M K C G Medical College Hospital at Berhampur.

Sources said the district administration of Kandhamal preferred to shift Saraswati to Cuttack hospital apprehending more danger in the locality due to presence of the VHP leader in Daringibadi area.

India easy prey for bombers
(Reuters)
28 August 2007



NEW DELHI - A hostile neighbourhood combined with a lack of domestic political will and some sloppy policing have made India a soft target for Muslim militants, experts say, after bombs killed 40 people in the south.


The US government’s National Counterterrorism Center says India was second only to Iraq in terms of terrorist incidents and deaths between January 2004 and March this year, with 3,674 people killed, more than hotspots like Afghanistan and Colombia.

A daily diet of violence in Kashmir and attacks by small bands of Maoist rebels in the countryside seldom make national headlines, but high-profile bomb attacks on India’s cities blamed on Islamist militants now take place more often.

“As a nation we are impotent when it comes to tackling terror,” the Times of India said. “After every attack, our police and politicians make the same old noises but nothing happens.”

The latest attack, in the southern city and emerging IT centre of Hyderabad, was swiftly blamed on Islamist militant groups based in Bangladesh or Pakistan, using Indian Muslims to carry out their work.

It was an explanation rejected by both neighbours, but one diplomats say has a ring of truth.

Chief suspect is Shahid Bilal of the Harkat-ul Jihad Islami (HuJI), a Bangladeshi group originally set up during the Afghan jihad against Soviet occupation, who was also blamed for organising another bombing in Hyderabad in May.

“The clever money is on him,” said one Western diplomat. ”It is a very reasonable working hypothesis.”

Pakistan’s Lashkar-e-Taiba works hand-in-glove with HuJI, with a network of militants commuting between the two countries and using Bangladesh’s long, porous border to enter India, security experts say.

“A huge problem the Indians face is that they don’t have a functional relationship with their near neighbours... with the people who can help them,” said the diplomat.

Harder than it looks

Rivals India and Pakistan set up a joint mechanism to share information on terrorism as part of their peace process last year but that body has held just one, unproductive meeting.

India’s police also came in for criticism this week. Each time a bomb goes off, police round up suspects and make a few arrests, but seldom seem to get to the perpetrators.

Analysts say the police are massively understaffed and under-resourced given the scale of the challenge they face, with vast swathes of the rural hinterland virtually unpoliced. The criminal justice system is overwhelmed and outdated.

There is also a lack of coordination between police in rival states and with the centre, no central database of militant suspects and little time for the kind of meticulous, post-attack hunt for clues undertaken elsewhere.

But Ajai Sahni of New Delhi’s Institute for Conflict Management says the critics sometimes overlook how tough a task India faces when the only people who know exactly what is being planned may never set foot in the country.

Foot soldiers in India are given small, specific tasks without necessarily knowing the people they are dealing with, or the grand plot.

“So if you catch any of these people, it doesn’t take you very far,” Sahni said.

India’s Home Minister Shivraj Patil defended his intelligence agencies from accusations they failed to act on information that an attack on Hyderabad was being planned, but in the process virtually admitted their impotence.

“Our country is so big, things are happening in such a manner that even if we have the information that something is likely to happen we do not know when and where it is likely to happen.”

Politics of appeasement?

But critics say a lack of political will or coherent political direction to fight militancy in India hardly helps.

Instead of standing together, Patil and opposition leader Lal Krishna Advani squabbled this week over the government’s 2004 decision to repeal a controversial anti-terrorism law.

The government says the law was misused to harass Muslims under the previous, Hindu nationalist-led government. The opposition says the repeal was an act of appeasement meant to cynically canvas Muslim votes.

“We need to have a consensus approach,” said security expert C. Uday Bhaskar, adding that India, like many democracies, needed to balance human rights and security needs, while also making sure laws were not misused.

Politicians, experts say, do need to acknowledge that India’s 140-million-strong Muslim population is beginning to provide recruits for militant groups, especially after communal riots in Gujarat in 2002 in which around 2,500 people died.

That uncomfortable fact, they say, is sometimes skirted over by politicians keen on attracting Muslim support.

Yet, if the Indian state risks being overwhelmed by the scale of the problem it faces, there are perhaps a couple of reasons for cautious optimism.

Militants’ attacks in recent years have failed in what most presume is their aim -- to destabilise India by fomenting violence between Hindus and Muslims, and to destroy the peace process with Pakistan.

They have also failed, at least since a 2001 attack on India’s parliament, to strike at high security targets.
