Saffron terrorism.Is it a fact? Or, is this a myth? After all, do we know enough?The shocking blasts of Malegaon and Samjhauta were projected as saffron terrorism. A new theory, terrorist attacks were tainted as such till, a few years later, Kasabs confession offered solid proof of Pakistans role in the 26/11 attacks. Though the police had concluded a Pakistani hand for the earlier blasts, it was saffron terrorism which prevented the perpetrators of these attacks from being brought to justice.As a theory, saffron terrorism is not just hurting Hindus sentiments but is also an obstacle to fight real terrorism sponsored by Pakistan and Islamic states. The term was coined by the erstwhile UPA government to garner minority votes and manipulate the vote bank. After all, why were the Malegaon-accused SIMI activists let off? Why did certain politicians declare not to oppose their bail? What was truly behind Aseemanands confession? The reliability of these confessions was questionable given the police brutality that the National Investigative Agency exposed.Journalist Praveen Tiwari explores saffron terrorism and reveals through exclusive interviews of senior National Investigative Agency officials, undercover agents and politicians how vote bank politics can compromise ethics and national security. Should the real masterminds behind the blasts be allowed to go scot-free? Should the manipulators of the Samjhauta Express bombings not be held accountable? Should we not investigate those who had exonerated Pakistan of its guilt? An extensive research on communal politics, the book offers indisputable evidence of the saffron terrorism theory as the Great Indian Conspiracy.

K eeping divisions alive is the core characteristic of politics. While divide and rule was the governing principle of the Britishers, India started her tryst with destiny cheerfully. However, the political class carried forward the same strategy as its predecessors to gain power. Such politics wounded the hour of freedom. The country was divided on the basis of religion, paying for the political ambitions of a few. Millions of Muslims were wise enough to choose their homeland. A million others were swayed by the communal frenzy of the time. The Pakistani psyche was poisoned with a pathological hatred for India, if not Indians. The radicalisation process had almost wiped out minorities from that country resulting in a decrease in the population of Hindus in Pakistan and Bangladesh.

Radicalisation was Indias problem too, but to a lesser extent. Independent India has witnessed some gruesome riots in its brief history. Even now, the country faces challenges from the supporters of the two-nation theory from within as well. Groups like SIMI and Indian Mujahedeen are the illegitimate children of this fallacious theory. Some of our youth had fallen prey to merchants of hatred like Hafiz Saeed, Zaki Ur Rehman Lakhvi and Syed Salahuddin. The light of freedom dissolved the common enemy, and both the communities drew further apart.

Islam and Christianity have fought each other for centuries across the globe. The war between the West and the Muslim world has fuelled terrorism. The US, the worlds greatest neo-imperialist power, has also followed the British mantra for balance of power in its favour. The US is not the only world power to have used terrorism as a strategic weapon.

What goes around comes around, and karma came a full cycle for the US in Afghanistan when the seed it had sowed came back to haunt it. For decades, Washington had condoned Pakistans duplicity against India in the war against terror. The army that aimed to bleed India was fed using dollars. The US establishment finally woke up on learning that its own money had helped finance Taliban terrorism. The mightiest power on earth had created its own enemy, virtually in the neighbourhood of Rawalpindis army staff.

The Jihadi monster, at least in South Asia, was born out of the US policy of divide and rule. Foreign and strategic policies of most countries revolve around only two or three global power centres of various degrees. Countries like Pakistan capitalise on their nuisance value and use foreign aid to fuel proxy war across their borders. Its birth decided its predicament, which is now becoming clearer with the country struggling for identity and existence. As a ripple effect, India too owes some of its troubles to its turbulent neighbourhood.

Diversity had no role in the supposed land of the pure. There was clamour for a Hindu Rashtra on our side of the border. However, our ancestors knew the value of equality. The whole world can now see the difference. The words of visionary leaders, like Maulana Kalam Azad, on the future of Pakistan have proved prophetically true. Indian Muslims knew that a country that superseded culture over religion was bound to be reduced to a failed state. The cocktail of a weak democracy and a fundamentalist army has turned Pakistan into hell. The state of minorities in Pakistan is a global concern.

It is not that India has never had its share of extremists. However, the sanatan roots of Indian culture have withstood such onslaughts on a much larger scale. The coexistence in India is an example for the world. The problem started when Muslims were being ghettoised. A glaring example of this phenomenon was one Indian politician offering legal help to a suspected ISIS terrorist. The relevant political party depended heavily on the Muslim vote bank. It made every effort to pander to them. However, inciting a false sense of insecurity betrays political principles.

The Muslim electorate has been made to look for saviours. Mulayam Singh Yadav adopted the same tactic to earn the title of Maulana Mulayam. The Congress also perfected the same trick and ruled unchallenged for several decades. It is the mother party of numerous regional parties in India.

The founders of Jan Sangh were vocal about the Hindutva identity. An agitation from Maharashtra aimed to get India declared a Hindu nation. Nevertheless, such movements could never catch the publics imagination. Even the Hindutva circles did not show any enthusiasm towards the demand. Indias rich culture lies in its unity in diversity. Majoritarianism will only reduce her to Pakistans mirror image. This understanding has prevented the Indian polity from getting swayed by communal tendencies beyond a point.

The Congress ruled the country for a long time and adopted the policy of appeasement to counter the growing influence of the Jan Sangh. Several smaller parties also followed the same model. However, this only perpetuated the polarisation of voters in Bharatiya Janata Partys (BJP) favour.

BJP emerged as a serious alternative to the Congress in the Vajpayee era by demonstrating that a non-Congress government was capable of completing its term. Now, Modi has gone a step beyond by ruling Indias first non-Congress majority government.

Many Congress leaders pre-empted the situation and opted for some desperate measures to prevent the partys dominance. The appeasement of minorities increased as BJP started to expand. It was portrayed as an enemy of the Muslims. The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), BJPs parent organisation, was demonised by linking it to Hindu extremism. The motormouth leaders of the Congress did their best to malign the Sangh Parivar. The opposition to BJP countered its rise by adopting the political formula of Pakistan.

Pakistan and other theocratic Islamic states have deprived minorities of basic freedom and equality. The underlining political current in such nations is homogenizing the population. In contrast, India has celebrated its multiple cultures. The divisive politics hit at this fabric of Indian nationhood. Regardless, the Congress used it to vilify BJP as a communal party. This led to the poisoning of a few Muslim minds which in turn gave terrorist masterminds like Hafiz Saeed the power to spread tentacles within our borders.
