Lal Ishtehar : The Virulent Proclamation Of Hindu Hatred


"Lord" Curzon in his attempt to supress the protests against the British rule, extended support to Islamic fanatic, Khwaja Salimullah, the Nawab of Dhaka. In February 1904, Curzon had already seduced Salimullah to support the Partition of Bengal. Curzon’s government gave him a loan of ₹ 14 Lakhs at an extremely low interest rate in return for his support at quelling the protests against the Partition of Bengal.

Salimullah began with his action-plan to provoke Hindu hatred in the Muslim community. He recruited a fanatic named Ibrahim Khan, who authored and published a anti-Hindu proclamation called LAL ISHTEHAR which was  an open incitement of the Muslims against the Hindus.

Lal Ishtehar  read – “ Ye Muslims Arise , Awake ! Do not read in the same schools with Hindus. Do not buy anything from a Hindu shop. Do not touch any article manufactured by Hindu hands. Do not give any employment to a Hindu. Do not accept any degrading office under a Hindu. You are ignorant, but if you acquire knowledge you can at once send all Hindus to Jehannum( Hell). You form the majority of the population in this province. The Hindu has no wealth of his own and has made himself rich only by despoiling you of your wealth. If you become sufficiently enlightened, then the Hindus will starve and soon become Mohammadans.

Lal Ishtehar also contained a poem recalling the glories of Arab military conquests in India and elsewhere, and to revive the same glory here and now.

On 4th March, riots broke out in Comilla, now in Bangladesh. Rape, arson, loot were common in that period. Hindu remples were desecrated, images broken, shops plundered, and many Hindu widows carried off. Some of the towns were deserted, the Hindu population took refuge in “pukka” houses (i e., house with brick in stone walls), women spent nights hidden in tanks, the crime known as “group-rape” increased. 

Ibrahim Khan, the author and publisher of the hateful Lal Ishtehar,  was tried and released on “personal recognisance bond of ₹ 1000/-“ and a warning by the District Magistrate of Mymensingh.

Our text books have no mention of Lal Ishtehaar and Comilla riots.  History of killings of Hindus was either distorted or hidden. Bengal at present times is again captured in the clutches of Hindu hatred under the evil leadership of Mamata Banerjee. There is still time to save Bengali Hindus from another Lal Ishtehar.

#BoycottLaalSinghChaddha: जब आमिर खान ने खुलकर जताई थी नरेंद्र मोदी के प्रति नफ़रत

11 अगस्त को आमिर खान की फिल्म 'लाल सिंह चड्ढा' रिलीज होने वाली है और आमिर के पुराने बयानों के कारण उनकी लिए अब एक नई मुसीबत खड़ी हो गई है। लोगों ने इस फिल्म का बहिष्कार करना शुरू कर दिया है, जिससे आमिर, फिल्म की एक्ट्रेस करीना और इंडस्ट्री के कुछ कलाकार भी परेशान हो गए हैं। हालांकि, फिल्म हिट होगी या फ्लॉप, ये तो वक्त बताएगा। लेकिन क्या आप जानते हैं कि आमिर खान प्रधानमंत्री नरेन्द्र मोदी के बड़े आलोचक रहे हैं ‌यहां तक कि उन्होंने गुजरात दंगों के लिए भी मोदी को ही जिम्मेदार ठहराया था। 2014 में नरेंद्र मोदी के पीएम बनने के बाद भले व्यक्तिगत तौर पर उनके लिए आमिर के सुर बदल गए हों और उन्होंने 'स्वच्छ भारत अभियान' के साथ साथ मोदी सरकार की कुछ नीतियों की तारीफ करते हुए खुला पत्र लिखा हो। लेकिन इसके पहले आमिर ने बहुत बार नरेंद्र मोदी की तीखी आलोचना की है। सिर्फ इतना ही नहीं, 2005 में उन्होंने अमेरिका द्वारा तत्कालीन गुजरात सीएम पर वीजा पाबंदी के फैसले पर मोदी के समर्थन में तत्कालीन प्रधानमंत्री मनमोहन सिंह के बयान की निंदा और अमेरिकी सरकार के फैसले क...

#IndiaAt75: Veer Savarkar's Role In The History Of the Indian National Flag

In the year 1906, in response to the British Government's infamous Bengal Partition Plan, leaders of the time considered creating an Indian flag. He needed to rekindle national consciousness and the spirit of organisation in every Indian citizen through the flag. However, even before this, many different types of flags were popular in India, the most prominent of which was the saffron-coloured flag.  However, keeping in mind the immediate circumstances, Indian leaders considered a new type of flag to unite all religions, sects, and sects, which would become a symbol of resistance to British colonialism. The partition of Bengal was part of a plan to completely divide India communally. For appeasement, the British government decided to create a separate Muslim majority province, but Surendranath Banerjee writes in his book 'A Nation in Making Bengal' that there was a lack of unity in Bengal at the time. As a result, a flag was desi...
