Committee will look into the demands of private operators for reduction of spectrum price and to reduce other levies - says Ms. Aruna Sundararajan, Secretary, Telecom.

Ms. Aruna Sundararajan, Secretary, Telecom has told media persons that the DoT has formed committees, including the one to look into the demand of the private telecom companies, for reduction of spectrum price and to reduce other taxes. It is relevant to mention that, in the India Mobile Congress, held a few days ago, Sunil Mittal Bharti, chief of Airtel, complained that the taxes and levies in the telecom sector is very high and Rs.37 out of every Rs.100 earned by the companies are being paid as tax. Now that the Secretary, Telecom, has stated that a committee would look into this complain. When the government pays so much attention to the grievances of the private companies, why can’t it look into the grievances of BSNL also?

Sabarimala- Supreme Court judgement is being violated by the BJP for political gains.

We have seen many times, when working class went on strike, the court, including various High Courts and the Supreme Court, have intervened and have ordered that the strike should be withdrawn. Obeying to the judgements, trade unions have withdrawn their struggles. But, we are seeing now, that the Supreme Court judgement on Sabarimala is being openly violated. In September, the Supreme Court ordered that women between the age group of 10 to 50 could also enter the Sabarimala temple. But, immediately, this judgement was projected by some people, as an “insult to Hindu religion and to Lord Ayyappa”. They say that court should not interfere in the matters of religious faith.
 
Many women, in the 10 to 50 years of age group, who tried to enter the Sabarimala temple after the Supreme Court judgement, were abused, harassed and were even beaten and chased away. Finally, when two women managed to reach the main entrance, the chief priest, Kandararu Rajeevaru, threatened to shut down the temple. But, now it is proved that the Sabarimala protests are being organised only for taking political advantage.
 
The Kerala BJP president, Sreedharan Pillai has been caught on camera, boasting how the Sabarimala agitation is being organised by the BJP. In the video, the State BJP president says that the Sabarimala head priest was worried about the contempt of Supreme Court, and had contacted him in this regard. The following is the statement of the BJP State President, about what he told the head priest.
 
“I told him you are not alone. This won't be contempt of court. If there is contempt of court case registered, then it will be against us first. There will be tens of thousands of people with you. When I told him that he won't be alone, he said that, that one word was enough for him. And he took a stern decision that day. It was that decision that put the state government and the police on the backfoot," the BJP leader is telling party men in the video. He also says in the video, “Sabarimala issue is a golden opportunity for us."
 
So, now it is crystal clear that, the Sabarimala agitation is being organised by the BJP, for taking political gains. The Hindu religious feelings are being exploited for political gains. One of the basic principles of Democracy is “All are equal before law and no one is above law.”
 
Now, when the law of the land is being violated by the party which is ruling at the Centre, let us see what the Supreme Court of the country is going to do. The court, which uses to be stubborn with the working class, should show the same stubbornness now also, to uphold the rule of law.

सबरीमाला: राजनीतिक लाभ के लिए बीजेपी द्वारा माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय के निर्णय का उल्लंघन किया जा रहा है

 

हमने कई बार देखा है कि जब वर्किंग क्लास के हड़ताल पर जाने के बाद , न्यायालय, कई उच्च न्यायालय और माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय  ने हस्तक्षेप किया है और हड़ताल वापसी के आदेश दिए हैं। आदेश का पालन करते हुए ट्रेड यूनियन्स ने संघर्ष को विराम दिया है। पर अब हम देख रहे हैं कि सबरीमाला पर माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय के निर्णय का सरेआम उल्लंघन हो रहा है। सितंबर में माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय ने निर्णय दिया था कि अब 10 से 50 आयु वर्ग में आने वाली महिलाएं भी सबरीमाला मंदिर में प्रवेश कर सकती है। लेकिन, तुरंत बाद ही, कुछ लोगों द्वारा इस निर्णय को " हिन्दू धर्म और भगवान अय्यपा के अपमान " के रूप में प्रस्तुत किया गया। उनका कहना है कि धार्मिक आस्था के मसलों में न्यायालयों का हस्तक्षेप नही होना चाहिए।

 

माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय के निर्णय के बाद 10 से 50 आयु वर्ग की कई महिलाएं , जो सबरीमाला मंदिर में प्रवेश करने का प्रयास कर रही थी, को परेशान किया गया, उनके साथ बदसलूकी की गई और उनको पीट कर भगा दिया गया। जैसे तैसे जब दो महिलाएं मुख्य प्रवेश द्वार तक पहुंच गई तो मुख्य पुजारी, कंडारारु राजीवरु, ने मंदिर को बंद करने की धमकी दी। किन्तु अब यह साबित हो गया है कि सबरीमाला में विरोध सिर्फ राजनीतिक लाभ लेने के लिए किया जा रहा है।

 

केरल के बीजेपी अध्यक्ष, श्रीधरन पिल्लई,  कैमरा के सामने यह शेखी बघारते हुए पकड़े गए हैं कि किस तरह बीजेपी द्वारा सबरीमाला आंदोलन किया जा रहा है। वे वीडियो में यह कहते हुए दिखाई दे रहे हैं कि सबरीमाला के मुख्य पुजारी माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय की अवमानना के भय से चिंतित थे और इस संबंध में उन्होंने उनसे संपर्क किया था। बीजेपी अध्यक्ष ने मुख्य पुजारी से जो कहा वह बयान निम्नानुसार है।

 

" मैंने उनसे कहा कि वें अकेले नही है। यह न्यायालय की अवमानना नही होगी। यदि अवमानना का प्रकरण दर्ज होता है तो वह सबसे पहले हमारे खिलाफ होगा। आपके साथ हजारों लोग होंगे। जब मैंने उनसे कहा कि वें अपने आपको अकेला न समझे, बस यह एक शब्द ही उनके लिए काफी था। और उस दिन उन्होंने कड़ा निर्णय लिया। यह वह निर्णय था जिसकी वजह से राज्य सरकार और पुलिस को पीछे हटना पड़ा।" यह सब बीजेपी अध्यक्ष वीडियो में अपने कार्यकर्ताओं से कह रहे हैं। वे वीडियो में यह भी कहते हैं कि " सबरीमाला का मुद्दा हमारे लिए एक स्वर्णिम अवसर है।"

 

अब यह शीशे की तरह साफ है कि सबरीमाला आंदोलन राजनीतिक स्वार्थ पूर्ति के लिए बीजेपी के द्वारा आयोजित किया हुआ है। राजनीतिक लाभ के लिए हिंदुओं की भावनाओं का दोहन किया जा रहा है। प्रजातंत्र का मूल सिद्धान्त है " न्याय के समक्ष सब समान है और न्याय से ऊपर कोई नही है।" 

 

अब जबकि देश के कानून का वह पार्टी उल्लंघन कर रही जो केंद्र में सत्तासीन है, देखना यह है कि माननीय सर्वोच्च न्यायालय क्या कदम उठाएगा। जो न्यायालय, प्रायः वर्किंग क्लास के खिलाफ काफी सख्ती से पेश आते हैं, उन्हें अब देश के कानून के सम्मान की खातिर वैसी ही सख्ती बरतनी चाहिए।
