Subversive Activities of Muslim and Christian Communalists –
– This resolution was passed by Akhil Bharatiya Karyakari Mandal (executive body) in 1960 :

Certain Muslim bodies notorious for their stark communalism and enmity towards our nation – which were lying dormant all these years – have become active again and are indulging in the same old mischievous game. Organizations such as Muslim League, Jamate-lslami, Ittehad-he-Musalmaan and Jamaat-Ul-Ulema-e-Hind have begun organizing Muslims on separatist lines. They have engineered massive Muslim attacks on peaceful processions of Hindus at Saharanpur, Ferozabad, Muzaffarpur, Mangalpady, Shimoga and Sagar. There is also a report that, at one place, a foreign-made bomb was used. As days pass, their mentality is becoming more and more belligerent. Many a time, not only loyalty to our national culture and tradition but even to the Indian State and Constitution is being subverted in the name of Islamic ideals. There has been a planned increase in the number of illegal infiltrators and also of those staying back even after the expiry of the time-limit of the passport. Many of them have taken to smuggling and espionage and the Government has been forced, in a few places, to proceed against them legally.

Certain Christian organizations too, inspired and actively aided by foreign missionaries, are indulging in political and disruptionist activities. They seem to be concentrating on certain selected places so as to make them the hotbeds of their intrigues. Demands for new states are being put forward and people incited for armed revolts towards that end. It is highly reprehensible that even prominent persons in the Government, in place of denouncing and striving to eliminate such conspiracies, are siding with such persons to achieve their immediate political ends. When viewed impartially, even these persons will have to be considered partners in all such sinful, unpatriotic and unlawful activities.

The recent incidents and their political overtones should indeed suffice to serve as an eye-opener for those who are still under the illusion that there has been a change in the attitude of these communal forces. The Government as well as the people should take a lesson from the past experience and refuse to give any quarter to such treacherous forces. It is the paramount duty of the Government to adopt stringent measures in this regard. Besides, the people should remain watchful and totally boycott all such parties which, out of opportunistic and selfish motives, align themselves with these elements.

….Disruptive activities
-This resolution was passed by Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi (ABPS) Sabha in 1981

The A.B.P.S. expresses its serious concern at the aggravation-in recent days of anti-national and subversive movements in the country.

The secessionist tactics of Christian missionaries in the North-East as also in the far South and Southern parts of Bihar; the increasing pace of infiltration of foreign Muslim nationals into Assam and also in Kashmir, W. Bengal, Bihar and other parts; demand for making Urdu the second official language and conceding of the same in some parts of Bihar and U.P., demand for reservation for Muslims in services and armed forces, coupled with the reappearance of the ‘two nation theory’; the huge amounts of foreign money flowing into our country to convert Harijans and tribals – all these are dangerous portends which any patriotic son of this land cannot fail to notice with grave anxiety. A factor of greater anxiety is that most of the political leaders instead of raising their voice against such anti-national designs are continuing the same policy of appeasement, which in the past had resulted in Partition.

The A.B.P.S. urges upon the Government to forthwith put a stop to the flow of foreign funds to private parties, as also to the entry of foreign missionaries and proselytisers coming under the garb of religious propagandists, and firmly plug all avenues of foreign infiltration, and undertake all such stern measures as are needed to effectively deal with these threats to our national security and integrity. The Sabha calls upon all our countrymen to be vigilant and through organised effort expose and counteract all such subversive and divisive moves.

Meenakshipuram Conversion
— This resolution was passed by Akhil Bharatiya Karyakari Mandal (executive body) in 1981

The A.B.K.M. is deeply concerned over the recent mass conversions of Hindus into Islam at Meenakshipuram and certain other villages of Tamilnadu. Reports further indicate that several more such mass conversions are being planned in many villages there and elsewhere in the country also.

All impartial agencies – press, social institutions, religious and political groups – which have made an on-the-spot study have affirmed the influence of vast amounts of money, coercion and such other illegal and anti-religious methods in the conversion. Even the flow of foreign money is strongly suspected.

The lavish scale on which the mammoth function was organized on the day of conversion at Meenakshipuram, participation of a Muslim M.P., an M.L.A., and leaders of several Muslim organizations including mullahs and maulvis, and attendance of a large number of Muslim men and women from surrounding places – all these point to the well-planned nature of the entire incident.

Reports also reveal the many underhand tactics being adopted by the Muslim proselytisers such as aggravation and exploitation of ‘untouchability’, the lure of so-called equality in Islam (in fact Muslim society too has no less divisions and discriminations) as against the discrimination in the Hindu fold, instigation of police against the Harijans, promises of security in the Muslim fold because of political favoritism, and dangling of lucrative jobs in oil-rich Muslim countries. It is also highly unfortunate that certain political leaders have sought to politicize the serious social problem and in the process provided moral justification for the conversion.

Experience of past history amply bears out the fact that such conversions do not merely imply a simple change in way of worship, but destruction of national culture and sentiments, growth of separatist and secessionist tendencies and extra-territorial loyalties and communal animosities and flare-ups as well, which directly strike at the roots of our national integrity and security. As such, the problem of such conversions should be a matter of serious concern for all our patriotic and nationalist people.

The A.B.K.M. welcomes the concern and disapproval expressed by the Prime Minister and the Chief Minister of Tamilnadu and a few other political leaders regarding such conversions. The A.B.K.M. calls upon the Government to undertake follow-up measures and impose a legal ban on conversions and flow of foreign money so as to put an end to all such nefarious attempts which are even now going on at several places all over the country. The Karyakari Mandal also appeals to the political parties to realize the grave implications of this national problem and desist from trying to exploit it for party ends.

The A.B.K.M. appeals to our Hindu Harijan brethren to stand united, as in the past, with the main body of Hindu society keeping in view the interests of our nation, and refuse to play into the hands of such anti-national forces. The Karyakari Mandal also urges all those who have been, in a moment of frustration, lured into an alien faith, to return to their parental society and faith and at the same time assures them that it will leave no stone unturned to secure for them a place of respect and equality in the Hindu society.

Finally, the A.B.K.M. calls upon the entire Hindu Society to bury deep the internal caste dissentions and the pernicious practice of untouchability and stand up as one single homogeneous family, so that the neglected and down-trodden sections will be assured of a place of equality, security and honor in the Hindu fold. And it heartily appreciates the initiative taken by several religious and social leaders and organizations in this direction and urges the people to whole-heartedly support their efforts.
Assault on Hindus in Kanyakumari District
– This resolution was passed by Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha in 1982

The A.B.P.S. is deeply perturbed over the orgy of calculated violence and vandalism, which has been rocking the Kanyakumari District of Tamilnadu. Evidences are galore that these have been a part of a deep-laid conspiracy masterminded by the Christian religious heads to convert the district into a wholly Christian-dominated one. Having captured a dominant position in educational, medical and other social fields, they have in recent years gone ahead in changing the names of scores of villages giving them a Christian slant and are planning to rename the district as Kannika Meri (Virgin Mary) district. Of late, they have started attacking Hindu religious functions, processions and shrines on a wide scale. Having failed to thwart the erection of the great national memorial to Swami Vivekananda on the Rock, they then set about obstructing the ferry service and have in fact succeeded in illegally occupying the jetty area and converting it into a beach. The present series of attacks beginning with the massive assault by Christian fishermen on the sea-bathing Hindu women devotees and their molestation at Mandaikaadu on 1st March at the annual age-old function was followed up by an undeclared war on Hindus, resulting in destruction and devastation of Hindu houses, shops, plantations, shrines and service institutions all over the district. The statement in Rajya Sabha of Sri P. Venkata Subbaiah, Minister of State for Home Affairs, on 19th instant amply confirms this fact. A virulent propaganda offensive, especially an anti-Hindu, anti-police and anti-R.S.S. poster war, was unleashed to whip up Christian mass frenzy by exploiting the death in the police firing of six of the aggressive Christian fishermen, who had attacked the police with lethal weapons at Mandaikaadu, and depicting it as martyrdom. It is obvious, innocent Christian fishermen have been incited in the name of Christianity against the local Hindu population.

These tell-tale happenings in Kanyakumari District have, beyond a shadow of doubt, exposed the real anti-national, anti-Hindu face of Christian missionary activity and should serve as an eye-opener to all the nationalist-minded people in general and the Government in particular.

These and other aggressive moves appear to be in line with the “Urban Rural Mission-Race and Minority Programme” as detailed in the publication of Christian Conference of Asia. The publication also mentions allocation of special funds contributed by foreign agencies including governments to finance the Action Programme.

The Sabha urges the Tamilnadu Government to undertake firm measures to immediately control the situation and to post officers known for their impartiality and integrity in the district, so that all such anti-national elements may be held in check and the anxiety and fear in the minds of Hindus be dispelled.

The Sabha also calls upon the enlightened section among the Christians to come out openly in condemnation of anti-social forces masquerading under the religious garb and warn their co-religionists of the same. It ill becomes of the Christians, who have prospered because of the generosity of Hindus, to take undue advantage of it and carry on such nefarious activities under the garb of “minority rights” and privileges.

The Sabha appeals to the Hindus in Kanyakumari District to stand united, sinking all their internal differences of caste, sect, party etc., with a view to safeguarding our society and Dharma and assures them of its whole-hearted sympathy and support.
Anti-Hindu Conspiracy
– This resolution was passed by Akhil Bharatiya Karyakari Mandal (executive body) in 1982

The A.B.K.M. expresses it deep concern at the way the Christians and Communists have joined hands with the Muslims in the recent Tamilnadu outrages against the Hindus which smacks of a deep-laid joint conspiracy aimed at disruption of Hindu society. Coming closely on the heels of the strategy involving Christian, Muslim and communist agencies-both foreign and Indian – outlined at the Christian Conference of Asia held in May last year at Bangalore, to engineer rebellions of Dalits against the other Hindus and the Government with the cry of independent Dalitstan, the Tamilnadu carnage points to a pattern likely to unfold itself in vulnerable areas all over the country.

And all this is being carried on through ‘minority conferences’ under the smoke-screen of ‘minority rights.’ The insidious way in which the Harijans, Girijans and other neglected sections of our society are sought to be clubbed together with Muslims and Christians as ‘minorities’, can indicate but one thing – their design to slice off big chunks of Hindu society with a view to gradually sucking them into their fold and dragging the entire country into the Islamic and Christian orbits.

It is a travesty of the constitution and perversion of secularism that the so-called minorities should enjoy rights so as to be in a position to subvert the security of the nation itself. It is high time this dangerous distortion and discrimination is set right. And towards this end, the A.B.K.M. urges our countrymen to raise their voice of protest and insist upon the Government to rectify matters without delay.

Inciting Elements of Internal Disruption
– This resolution was passed by Akhil Bharatiya Karyakari Mandal (executive body) in 1982

The A.B.K.M. is gravely perturbed over the shocking incidents at Puliangudi and other places in the vicinity of Meenakshipuram in the Tirunelveli district of Tamil Nadu – where riots have taken a terrific toll of over five hundred houses and twenty five lives.

Facts, revealed by impartial enquiries and pressmen, are tell- tale. The Muslim proselytizing agencies and politicians including M.P.s and M.L.A.s, who were at the back of the Meenakshipuram conversion, have taken a leading part in inciting these outbreaks as well. Under the cloak of championing the cause of the poor and the downtrodden-through the forum of Samatva Sahodaratva Sangham – they had been for sometime past provoking a section of Harijans against the other Hindus. It was the highly venomous instigations indulged in by the Muslim leaders at the Kadayanallore conference of S.S.S. on 8th June, that plunged those adjoining areas, which were singularly free from inter-caste clashes so far, into an orgy of mutual destruction among Hindus. In addition, the Muslims launched direct attack on the weaker sections among the Hindus.

It is unfortunate that the Tamil Nadu Government has succumbed to pressure tactics of such dangerous anti-national communal groups and in place of taking stern steps against them, has chosen to victimize the Hindus themselves. The prohibiting of the religious Jnana Ratham from moving with loudspeakers on in the Harijan villages of Tirunelveli district, the prohibition of Hare Krishna procession in a locality in Madras, the prompt release of the arrested instigators of the Puliangudi holocaust while continuing to detain the Hindus behind bars-all such acts will only further embolden the aggressive postures of the mischief-mongers. With tragedies like Meenakshipuram, Mandaikadu and now Puliangudi staring in their face, the Tamilnadu Government, we hope, will at least now initiate right and firm measures to stem the rot before it is too late.

The recent Tamilnadu atrocities where Hindus – both Harijans and others – have grievously suffered, should serve as an eye-opener to all the Hindus, especially to the Harijan and other backward sections, to refuse to become pawns in the hands of anti-Hindu forces in their plot of setting up one caste against the other with separatist slogans and provocative caste appeals.

The A.B.K.M. calls upon all our Hindu brethren in the country-and of Tamil Nadu in particular-to see through this dangerous game and defeat the anti-national conspiracies and help foster mutual goodwill, harmony and unity among all sections of Hindu Society. The A.B.K.M. also appeals to the nationalist press to keep track of the real forces at work behind such incidents and expose them fearlessly, so as to put the people and the Government on the alert.
Violation of Hindu Sanctity in Kerala
– This resolution was passed by Akhil Bharatiya Karyakari Mandal (executive body) in 1983

The A.B.K.M. considers it most unfortunate that some fanatical sections of Christians have trespassed into and set up a church at Nilakkal – a sacred spot of pilgrimage for the entire Hindu people. Such a church within the eighteen holy hills complex of the famous Sabari mala Temple would obviously prove to be a constant source of hurting the Hindu religious sentiments. The illegal planting of a cross all of a sudden and its equally mysterious disappearance three days later, then applying political pressure on the Government and the Government’s partisan and ill-conceived decision to bow to their demand for a church, where not a single Christian lives anywhere nearby – these have only further aggravated the situation and severely disturbed the traditional social amity among the different sections of the people of Kerala.

The A.B.K.M. considers as highly reprehensible the acts of the Government such as providing police protection to the trespassers, assaulting the peaceful, revered Sanyasins who entered into the area for doing penance, and beating up and arresting the respectable members of the ladies’ delegation to the Chief Minister at Guruvayur. It is tragic, that the Kerala Government should have become instrumental in insulting and injuring the three points of Hindu religious honor viz., the Temple, the Sanyasins and the Motherhood.

The Government’s propaganda tirade against R.S.S., arrests of more than 3,500 Swayamsevaks and sympathizers and their manhandling and torture in police-lock-ups, police raids and illegal searches of Sangh Karyalayas, forcible closure of Shakhas at some places, foisting charges of rousing communal passion and hatred on respectable and peace-loving elders and Swayamsevaks – all these are clearly part of Government’s desperate attempts to make the R.S.S. a scapegoat in order to cover its own sins of commission and omission and to divide the Hindu ranks.

The A.B.K.M. demands that the Government of Kerala immediately retrace their unjust and oppressive measures against the Hindus and withdraw forthwith all the cases against the Swayamsevaks and others, including many women, and revoke the permission for the church, with a view to restoring peace and harmony in the State.
The A.B.K.M. also appeals to the Christians in general not to aggravate the situation by making it a prestige issue, and also congratulates the sober elements among them who have openly come out against the present demand for a church at Nilakkal and exposed the hollowness of the historical and legendary claim over Nilakkal.

The A.B.K.M. hereby wishes to caution the Christian brothers and the Kerala Government that if a just and amicable solution is not found without further delay, Hindus all over the country may feel seriously agitated – as they have already begun to feel – about the menace which will be posed to Hindu religious places wherever Christians grow in sizable numbers.

The A.B.K.M. appreciates and welcomes the efforts of certain well-meaning social leaders to defuse the explosive situation and see that justice is upheld.

The A.B.K.M. hereby heartily congratulates the Hindu populace of Kerala for putting up a united resistance cutting across all political and caste differences. The A.B.K.M. calls upon the Hindu people all over the country to stand solidly behind our Hindu brethren of Kerala. While assuring our Kerala brethren of its humble share in their noble efforts, the R.S.S. also appeals to them to continue to maintain the present spirit of unity so that the integrity and sanctity of the Hindu Dharma and Society will ever remain safe and secure.

Threat to Kanyakumari
– This resolution was passed by Akhil Bharatiya Karyakari Mandal (executive body) in 1985

The situation developing in and around Kanyakumari is, in the opinion of the A.B.K.M. such as to give rise to grave misgivings about its very future as one of the holiest all-Bharat Centers of pilgrimage. Squeezing out of Hindus, often by threats and. attacks, from Kanyakumari and conversions have not only reduced the Hindu population to a minority, but the bulk of business too has passed into the non-Hindu hands. Insults and humiliations of the pilgrims and customers at the hands of Christians go on unchecked.

AS days are passing, acts of anti-Hindu vandalism are taking ever new dimensions such as disturbing and desecrating the temple functions and preventing religious sermons, collection of Christian mobs at the signal of the Church bells to carry out their anti-Hindu designs, etc. Right on the heels of such incidents over the past few months, the Hindu priest of a neighboring temple and his two associates who insisted on carrying out their temple function mysteriously disappeared with no trace whatever left. It is widely feared that they have been liquidated and their bodies disposed of in the sea.

Illegal grabbing of land round about the jetty platform belonging to the Vivekananda Rock Memorial Committee is also going on unchecked. The agreement arrived at the instance of the Tamil-nadu Chief Minister requiring the Christian fishermen to vacate part of their grabbed area has not only been thrown to winds but that area has been even converted into a fish market. The Hindu boatmen of the VRMC ferry service are also often harassed and attacked causing serious inconvenience to the Pilgrim visitors. Now the beach area belonging to the temple adjoining the bathing ghat at the holy confluence of the three seas is also crowded with Christian catamarans, blocking the way for the pilgrims from far and near from taking their traditional bath.

The A.B.K.M. feels that the callous indifference of the police towards all such illegal and violent actions of the Christian zealots has been largely responsible for their growing aggressiveness. The Karyakari Mandal urges the Tamilnadu Government to wake up to the gravity of situation, rise beyond their narrow political considerations and take prompt and firm measures to book the culprits without fear or favor, guarantee security and justice to the victims and establish the rule of law, which after all is the fore -most, elementary obligation on the part of any government worth the name. The Government will be solely responsible if, in face of its own inaction, the Hindus in Kanyakumari and round about area are forced to take remedial steps leading to unforeseeable developments.
In view of the all-Bharat importance of the wider countrywide repercussions which it may give rise to if the situation is allowed to go on unchecked, the Karyakari Mandal also urges the Central Government to prevail upon the Tamil Nadu Government to do the needful without any further delay. The Karyakari Mandal heartily compliments the Hindus of Kanyakumari for putting up a bold fight in face of such heavy odds in defense of their Dharma and assures them of its firm support in future also as heretofore.
ON GUJARAT TURMOIL
— This resolution was passed by Akhil Bharatiya Karyakari Mandal (executive body) in 1985

The bloody turmoil under which Gujarat has been reeling for over 15 weeks now should make every thinking patriotic countryman of ours sit up and ponder over its dangerous trends and portends. That the entire trouble was triggered off by the new and patently politically motivated reservation policy announced by the Gujarat Government just on the eve of the last Assembly Elections, is well known. However, the initial anti- reservation stir has now no longer remained so. The ruling politicians of Gujarat have gone all out in setting up one caste against another, the Muslims against the Hindus and the police against the people and the press. Criminals, goonda elements and the communal Muslims have been armed and let loose with a view to browbeat all opposition. Fanatic Muslim leaders abetted by self-seeking caste -leaders have sought to provoke Harijans against the rest of Hindus.

However, it is to the credit of our patriotic people of Gujarat and especially the-Harijan section, who have refused to walk into the trap and maintained their mutual goodwill and amity. The inspiring manner in which the people have responded to the good-will campaign launched at scores of places by the Sangh and the Vishwa Hindu Parishad with the Sadhus and Mahatmas taking the lead for maintaining social harmony has shown how the right kind of appeal by the right kind of people will be able to give a right lead to the people in such crises. The Sangh workers have also spared no pains in promptly bringing succour and relief to the thousands of riot-stricken brothers and sisters.

The manner in which the Gujarat Government wilfully withheld the Rane Commission Report and announced its own reservation policy, only makes it all the more urgent to devise effective measures to cry a halt to the suicidal race of power-hungry politicians in creating mutually antagonistic vote -banks and thereby dividing the society. The A.B.K.M. therefore reiterates its previous demand that the central Government should, without further delay, come forward to constitute a representative committee of eminent and impartial persons to examine and evaluate in all its aspects and give out a national consensus on the reservation policy, so that even while the socially neglected and needy sections of society will receive the necessary support, the overall efficiency of the administration and social harmony and unity will not receive any set back.

The Karyakari Mandal also appeals to all our countrymen in general and our Gujarat brethren in particular., to come forward to strengthen all such forces as are devoted to maintain intact the national unity and social harmony and defeat all anti- social machinations and provocations.
Shahbano case
– This resolution was passed by Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha in 1986

The nature and extent of the recent flare up of Muslim riots and demonstrations in several provinces – especially in Uttar Pradesh, should, in-the opinion of A.B.P.S. leave no one in doubt about the plan and purpose behind it.
The Court-decision on Rama Janmabhoomi or the Shahbano case was just a pretext. The fanatic, divisive Muslim leadership has taken to the war-path to browbeat the Central leadership into conceding its demands by dangling the carrot of electoral support of Muslim block vote and applying its usual pressure-tactics of threats and riots, The demands of 1930’s and 40’s i.e. stoppage of music before mosques; Urdu as official language, reservation in army, police, legislature and Administrative machinery, are all being echoed with increasing vehemence towards furthering their divisive ends.

One other urgent reason for -the fanatic Muslim leadership for taking to the pre -1947 war cry of ‘Islam in danger’ and inflaming and rallying the ignorant Muslim masses is obviously to suppress the first ever challenge to it from an overwhelming section of Muslim women and Muslim intellectuals in the wake of Supreme Court’s Shahbano judgment.

It is, therefore, tragic in the extreme that in face of such a planned anti-national maneuver the Central leadership should have surrendered to it and decided to nullify the Supreme Court judgment in Shahbano case by introducing the Muslim Divorced Women Protection Bill. The Bill has not only given a boost to the sagging morale and prestige of the communal Muslim leadership, but has dealt a severe blow to the rising voice of rationalism and reform from among the Muslim community. Instead of moving towards a uniform civil code as envisaged in the Directive Principles of our Constitution, the Bill has put the country in a reverse gear by sealing off a section of people from joining the national mainstream. The step is not only a stab in the back for the security and integrity of the country but more so for the Muslim community itself. However, there is a silver lining on the national horizon. Nation’s conscience is awakened, as never before, to the menace of Muslim communalism. Thinkers, Jurists, social workers and the entire national press and political leaders cutting across party affiliations have all raised their powerful voice of protest and bounded the alarm and emphasised the urgent need for an uniform civil code.

The A.B.P.S. appeals to the Prime Minister not to view the affair as a party issue – or much less as one of personal prestige, but heed to saner counsels and withdraw from the hasty and disastrously slippery path on which he has embarked.

The A.B.P.S. hereby stresses the need for stern and effective measures, both by the Central and other State Governments, to make the Muslim communalists realise that their tactics of violence will not pay.
The A.B.P.S. congratulates every section of national opinion who has come out openly in defense of national integrity at this crucial juncture. The Sabha especially urges the members of Parliament irrespective of their party label to rise to the occasion and voice their powerful opposition to the Bill. The Sabha calls upon all nationalist forces to maintain the same vigilance till the present mischief is undone and all the communal, anti-national secessionist forces are defeated.

Kashmir

– This resolution was passed by Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha in 1987

The A.B.P.S. feels it imperative to point to the growing dangers of the policy of pampering the so-called minorities by the ruling party at the Center and certain States resulting in their aggressively separatist, fundamentalist and anti-national postures.

The succumbing by the Center to the pressure-tactics of Muslim Leaguers and other Islamic zealots and annulling of the effect of the Supreme Court Judgment and defaming the judges in the Shah Bano Case, has further convinced them that their bullying tactics pay. And again the Government seems to have surrendered to threats by such elements and started soft pedalling on its move to enact even a docile optional common civil code. The resultant Muslim aggressiveness on the Ramjanmabhoomi issue has gone to the extent of identifying themselves with Babar, a foreign aggressor, as against Sri Ram- the noblest symbol of our national heritage, and issuing a call for the boycott of the Republic Day. Even a silly pretext such as the publication of a story in a paper has become, as in Bangalore, sufficient for such leadership to inflame their masses to indulge in riots and destruction of Hindu property.

The seed of communal separatism planted in Kashmir in the form of temporary provisions engrafted in Art. 370 of our Constitution continues to encourage pro-Pakistani forces there to indulge in ever-more anti-Hindu and anti-national subversive conspiracies and needs to be scrapped forthwith. The installing of Lal Denga-one who waged a secessionist War in pursuance of Christian missionary designs against our country for decades-as the Chief Minister of Mizoram even setting aside the democratically elected Government, has only emboldened similar anti-national terrorist activities elsewhere also. The protagonists of so-called Khalistan have, since then, started demanding according of a similar status to them also in Punjab. And so also has a movement for Gorkhaland come-up in Darjeeling in a virulent form.

The argument advanced by our Prime Minister that his Party’s alliance with the Muslim League in Kerala is aimed at drawing them into the national mainstream and his distinction between the fundamentalists and those on the fringe of communalism is so very facile that it can hardly deceive anyone. The impact of such efforts in respect of Muslim and Christian communal parties going on for the last several years on its part in injecting further doses of communal poison into Kerala politics is only too well known.

The growing menace of infiltration affords one more glaring, example of the disastrous effect of minority appeasement indulged in by political parties. The inundation of Assam with over 40 Lakhs of Bangladeshi Muslim infiltrators is now being followed by over 50 lakhs into West Bengal and 10 lakhs into Bihar. On the Western border, continuing influx of Pakistanis into Kutch and Rajasthan has also swelled into lakhs. Together with those Pak and Bangladeshi, infiltrators who have spread all over the country right from Delhi to Hyderabad, their total number has now gone up to more than one crore landing the entire country in grave threats to its integrity and security.

The one chief factor, which is aiding and abetting this dangerous development has been the close collaboration of workers of the ruling and certain other political parties in these states with the infiltrators with an eye on their block votes. The Center too, plagued as it is with the same myopic view, is behaving as if the problem did not exist at all. The Center has, up to this day, not undertaken a single step to fulfill its part in the Assam accord in throwing out the infiltrators or even to see that further infiltration is put an end to.

It is high time the Central leaders heed the warnings of past history. The tragedy of the gory partition of the country and the growing threats to our national integrity and sovereignty by elements posing themselves as minorities should make the Center sit up and cry a halt to their dangerous policy of feeding the fires of “minority complex”. The A.B.P.S. calls upon the Center to do away, without any further delay, all such obnoxious and divisive provisions, including Article 30, which confer special rights to the so-called minorities-but denied to the majority Hindus-in matters of religion and education.

For, such special rights only help foster vested interest and separatist tendencies among such groups, leading them away from the national mainstream. The Pratinidhi Sabha is of the firm opinion that the very expressions like minority and majority create a dicotomy in our national life and need to be banished, and the fact of our being ‘One country, one People, one Nation’ upheld in thought, word and action by all the concerned.

The Sabha also urges all our patriotic people to effectively make the ruling party at the Center in particular and all those parties indulging in appeasement of so-called-minorities in general realise that their policy would prove disastrous to our national integrity.
Foreign Christian missionaries
-This resolution was passed by Akhil Bharatiya Pratinidhi Sabha in 1987

The A.B.P.S. expresses its serious concern over the orgy of violence, destruction and chaotic conditions let loose in a well-planned manner by the foreign missionaries and their local henchmen in the tribal belt of Bihar, Madhya Pradesh and Orissa in the wake of Pope’s visit. All this only prove how Prophetic have been the warnings-voiced by the Neogy Committee, constituted by the M.P. Government two decades back, about the anti-national motives behind the missionary activities.

Posing of serious threats to law and order under the guise of stopping the “Bagharkhol Abhayaranya Project” in the Jashpur area in M.P., inciting the tribals of Chhota Nagpur to take to terrorise tactics ho carve out separate Kolhan and Jharkhand States and liquidate all those who oppose them, oppose and strive to nullify the developmental activities of the Government, goad the tribals for destruction of forests tearing the State Flag, issuing a call for the boycott of the Republic Day, all these have clearly exposed their real secessionist intentions.
The starting of many educational, medical and other tribal service centers in a big way by organisations like Vanavasi Kalyana Ashram, Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Shri Hari Vanavasi Vikas Samiti in Chhota Nagpur region, seems to have made them feel that their monopoly in the area is being threatened. The way they are now indulging in spreading every kind of baseless and heinous canard with a view to inciting internecine rift and strife among the Vanavasis and between Vanavasis and other Hindus, has exposed their real face behind their mask of service and peace. In Orissa, they have taken recourse to every possible tactics to obstruct the movement of Jagannath Rath in the tribal areas, which was however defeated because of the vigilance displayed by the Hindu People.

It is unfortunate that the Central Govt. continues to turn a blind eye to the seriousness of the problem.
On the contrary, the M.P. Govt., which had expelled six foreign missionaries as being undesirable, was forced to permit them to come back. The Belgian missionary Kerkov, expelled for his anti–national activities, has been given a clean chit by our Prime Minister. Such incidents make it clear that supporters of missionaries are well entrenched in such high places that even the Prime Minister could be misled.

The A.B.P.S. hereby desires to caution that unless the activities of foreign-inspired agencies are put an end to, it appears certain that one more terrorist front would soon be opened in the Chhota Nagpur area. The Pratinidhi Sabha strongly urges the Central Govt. to expel all the foreign missionaries and clamp a total ban on the receipt of foreign funds by missionary institutions here. The Sabha also appeals to all our elected representatives in the Parliament and State Assemblies to raise the issue through proper forums to urge the Government to initiate suitable measures in this regard.

The A.B.P.S. calls upon the enlightened section of these affected-regions to form Citizens’ Committees and launch a movement for educating and alerting the common mass of our people and see that the Government takes notice of the potential dangers and initiates appropriate steps.

The Sabha expects the Sangh-Swayamsevaks, to help speed up the various service activities going on in tribal areas so that the educational and medical needs of our brethren there could get fulfilled and they could march shoulder to shoulder with the rest of our countrymen in a spirit of dignity and equality.

On riots at Delhi, Merrut etc.
– This resolution was passed by Akhil Bharatiya Karyakari Mandal (executive body) in 1987

The ABKM views the spate of riots recently witnessed in Meerut, Delhi and at some places in Gujarat, which have taken a tragic toll of hundreds of lives and destruction of crores-worth of property, as most tragic and shocking.
The Karyakari Mandal is convinced that, in these riots, factors such as pre-planning, ulterior motives and foreign hand-all these have played their part. The store of foreign arms and ammunition seized and Pakistani citizens apprehended during the search of houses and other places lend further evidence in this regard. It is obvious that at the root of these riots lies the frenzy roused in the name of religion by those elements who refuse to accept this nation and its laws and traditions as their own and consider this as the right of Muslims. The stage was set by the call to boycott the 1987 Republic Day Celebrations and the provocative call for rebellion issued at the Delhi Boat Club rally and at Kanpur and other places.

It is shocking to note that impediments were placed in the search of houses of rioters and their arrests. More unfortunate is the thoughtless role of certain politicians and responsible papers who, without caring to make independent, impartial enquiry, were carried away by the insinuations of mischief mongers against the PAC as in the case of Malliana (Meerut) .They poured severe indictment on its head ,which, however, have proved baseless. It is on record that the rioters could be subdued and their arms seized only after the PAC swung into action in Meerut district.

The Karykari Mandal calls upon the Govt. to
1) undertake a through search of every doubtful place in the riot-prone areas and scrutinise the arms and ammunition with suspected persons.
2) carry out a close check up of all the foreign nationals residing in such areas and keep a strict vigil over their activities and
3) keep under watch all such anti-social elements and inciters of religious fanaticism, wherever such tension surfaces.

The ABKM calls upon the enlightened section among Muslims to come forward, without any further delay, to save their community from the hold of fundamentalists and anti-national elements and ensure that they integrate themselves emotionally with the national mainstream.

The Karyakari Mandal also urges the general enlightened section, especially the journalists, to keep the people warned of the doings of such politicians who, in their race to capture the votes of any sectional or religious group, often ignore the over-all interests of the nation. The people also need to be warned of those who do not hesitate to issue religious commands for insulting the nation and its points of honor.

The Karyakari Mandal firmly believes that the final and lasting guarantee for the unity and security of the nation and the solution of , problems in all such critical situation lies in the organized strength of the Hindu Society. Situation demands that the Hindu people speed up their efforts in making their organized strength more effective and offer whole-hearted co-operation to the workers of the Sangh engaged in this task.

The Karyakeri Mandal offers its heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families and calls upon the service-minded institutions and individuals as also the Govt. to come forward to support and help such families.
