Ousting of Jaswant Singh from BJP

Ousting of Jaswant Singh from BJP

         It is an internal affair of BJP to keep Jaswant in the party or oust him, but when we take up the grounds on which Mr. Jaswant has been ousted, we are constrained to take up the cause on the basis of which the party has ousted him.  Even a man like L.K.Advani has commented that ouster of Jaswant was most necessary.

        We have been told that Mr. Jaswant has written a book in which he has declared that Mr. Jinnah the founder of Pakistan was a secular man.  Mr. Jaswant has expressed his thoughts what he has felt and what had been his experience and no party, no state and no individual has got a right to say that the thought expressed by an individual are so dangerous that he should be expelled from the party, from the country or from a social unit.  We shall have to go back in 1947 and then if we conduct a thorough investigation we shall find that not only Mr. Jinnah was responsible for the creation of Pakistan, but some Hindu Leaders were also responsible and their wrong decision had taken lives of about eight lac people and at least eleven crores people had been forced to migrate to unknown places and all those cursed the leaders and actually the whole of India and Pakistan had been cursed because these two countries had been established on dead bodies and that is the reason both these countries could not remain in peace since partition and that is the reason there had been direct and indirect wars and at least five lac people might have been killed even after partition.

          As far as Mr. Jinnah was concerned, he had got no faith in Hindu leaders of that time and even in Mahatma Gandhi and therefore, he desired that he should be made the first PM of India.  But people like Jawahar Lal Nehru were not in a mood to raise this ordinary person to the position of PM and this led to creation of Pakistan.  Had Hindu leaders agreed to the proposal and desire of Jinnah, the situations would have been otherwise and this small mistake cause deaths of lakhs of people and migrations at such a large scale which this earth witnessed for the first time in whole of history known update.  We have been told that in the first speech delivered in the National Assembly, Pakistan, Jinnah had made it clear that Pakistan shall be a secular state and it is on record that thousands of Hindus and Sikhs had been retained in Pakistan and it is also on record that there had been no terrorism from these groups nor there had been riots from the bigger groups and there had been no innocent killings on this account, when we, the people of India have witnessed terrorism and riots and we count with right figures, the figures shall not be less than five lac people who had been innocent but have been killed either by the terrorists or by the rioters.

           BJP should have taken up all these aspects and only then they should have ousted Jaswant Singh who expressed his views in a right manner.  Therefore, the party must take up the case once again and they must consider the situations available in 1947 and arole of Jinnah and also they should take up the case of Hindus and Sikhs who had been retained in Pakistan.  They should also take up the matter as to who was responsible for the bifurcation of Hindustan and then for all these troubles which the people had been facing since then.  I think the position shall be clear and remarks and findings of Jaswant Singh shall not be wrong altogether.
