Junagadh (Gujarat), May 09: The analysis of the role of police officials involved in law and order management during 2002 Gujarat riots and afterwards, throws interesting and yet shocking facts to the fore. The cops belonging to dalit and backward communities had joined hands with their political bosses to commit heinous crimes against Muslims. On the contrary the upper caste Hindus, particularly Brahmins, resisted the unconstitutional orders of the contemporary BJP government and went out of their way to help Muslims. In fact among the police officers who exposed the “role and conduct” of Chief Minister Narendra Modi and others during the riots, most belong to upper caste. Modi himself belongs to backward class of “Telis.”
Upper caste Hindu officials took a very strong stand knowing well that they were putting themselves and their families to great risk in Gujarat under Modi rule. In fact, it is these officials who collected evidences and leaked out various information to the investigative agencies that later tightened the noose around those involved in the communal riots and fake encounter of Muslims in the state under saffron rule since 1995.
The prominent among those who displayed their hostility towards Muslims and struck terror by targeting Muslims and killing them in fake encounters include IPS officials DG Vanzara, Rajkumar Pandian and Dinesh MN as well as N K Amin, a Gujarat Police Service(GPS) official. Vanzara, Pandian, Dinesh and Amin were all involved in fake encounter of Sohrabuddin Sheikh and others. Vanzara leading the team, in every encounter, told the media that those killed in the ‘encounter’ were Lashkar-e-Toiba operatives and on a mission to kill Modi and VHP leader Pravin Togadia.
Vanzara hails from the most backward communities of the state and his education was financed by Muslims of his native village (Illol). Dinesh and Pandian are dalit from Andhra Pradesh. While Pandian is a Gujarat cadre IPS official, Dinesh is Rajasthan cadre IPS officer. Amin is also a dalit from Gujarat.
Deputy Superintendent of Police, Nobel Parmar who is a dalit-convert-Christian, investigated the Godhra train burning incident and booked large number of innocent Muslims including Maulana Hussain Umarji. As a reward for his services, he was later on promoted as Superintendent of Police and also given two extensions after retirement. But the upper caste police officials who resisted unconstitutional orders against Muslims had to “pay” the price for their “disobedience.”
The first among them was R B Sreekumar, a Brahmin IPS official from Kerala. His depositions before the Nanavati Commission not only created problems for the Modi government but most of the statements were treated as evidence and became the basis for further investigation in the riot cases. Sreekumar was denied promotion and was superseded by his junior. It is was only after he fought his case in the Central Administrative Tribunal that the latter gave him promotion to the rank of Director General of Police(DGP), with all pensionary and other benefits.

Another officer Rahul Sharma, a Brahmin, himself fired on a mob attacking a ‘madrasa’ during 2002 riots in Bhavnagar. He also arrested 21 of the rioters belonging to BJP and did not release them despite strong political pressure. That cost him his transfer to the police control room (PCR) in Ahmedabad. At Ahmedabad, he was additionally assigned to assist the Ahmedabad crime branch investigating the Naroda Patia, Naroda Gam and Gulberg mass massacre cases.
It was during this period that Sharma collected details of the phone calls made by various accused to the ruling party politicians, including officials in Chief Minister's Office (CMO) and prepared a CD. It was on the basis of his CDs that Modi was interrogated by Supreme Court appointed Special Investigation Team (SIT) and former minister Mayaben Kodnani was arrested and jailed.
Another upper caste official who upheld the law during the riots and tried to keep maximum check on rioters is Kuldip Sharma. He refused to help the Hindu mobs to attack Muslims during riots in his jurisdiction. He was, at that time, posted as Inspector General of Police (IGP), Ahmedabad range, holding charge of Ahmedabad rural, Anand and Kheda districts.
It was during his posting as Chief of CID (crime) that probe into fake encounter of Sohrabuddin Sheikh was conducted. Against alleged instructions from political bosses not to allow his junior Geetha Johri to submit the charge sheet on time, he asked Johri to go ahead and submit the charge sheet. Consequently, he was humiliated by making his junior as in-charge DGP and Sharma being posted as chairman-cum-managing director of Gujarat Sheep and Wool Development Corporation, a job never assigned to a police officer in the history of Gujarat.

His annual confidential report was also downgraded to ensure that he never got promotions. But the CAT later on restored his ACR and recently, he got posting at the Centre to escape Modi government's wrath. Allegedly to teach Kuldip a lesson, the Modi government arrested his brother Pradeep Sharma, an IAS officer in land scam. Surprisingly, several other officials connected with the same scam, have been given important postings.
It was Rajnish Rai, another upper caste(Rajput from Uttar Pradesh) official who mustered courage to arrest Vanzara, Pandian and Dinesh in Sohrabuddin case, which finally led to the arrest of the then Minister of State for Home Amit Shah. Several reports suggest that Rai also wanted to arrest Shah but he was shunted out of CID (crime) when his bosses smacked of his move.
It is again a Brahmin officer-Sanjiv Bhatt-who has submitted an affidavit in the Supreme Court, saying on oath that Modi in February 27, 2002, meeting at his residence, had instructed officials not to take action against Hindu mobs attacking Muslims. This has tightened the noose around Modi, generating a possibility of registration of FIR against him and 61 others on the petition filed by Zakia Jafri, whose husband and former Congress MP Ehsan Jafri was brutally burnt by the rioting mob.
According to Vadodara-based social and political activist Mr. Zubair Gopalani, dalits living adjacent to Muslim localities in Ahmedabad and Vadodara cities were among the most hostile groups attacking Muslims and destroying their properties. “This is despite the fact that Muslims have always been sympathetic to dalits,” pointed out Mr. Gopalani.
Vadodara-based human rights activist Mr. J. S. Badukwala said that this was a very unusual feature, “Dalit professional class-IAS and IPS- went out of their way to make life miserable for Muslims, perhaps with a view to making fast progress,” commented Mr. Bandukwala, saying that “Dalits appear to have been communalized and saffronised by RSS and Vishwa Hindu Parishad.”
“Now is the time for Muslims to revise their relations with dalit,” pointed out Mr. Bandukwala adding that “Brahmin officers felt gross injustice being done to Muslims and went out of their way to protect Muslims,” commented Mr. Bandukwala.

Nice try by mullah media to
Nice try by mullah media to create divisions among Hindus. But "try" is utter failure. All mullahs were bashed by Hindus unitedly in Gujarat. If u hurt us again we under leadership of Modi will bash you badly .
who are hindus after muslims
who are hindus after muslims came to india then only they realised that they are hindus.The powerful ARYAN Invaders before muslims created caste system and opressed the natives people from thousands of year.
Stupid fellow
Your stupidity is all over the place. Every alphabet, word, sentence, para...in fact the whole post says "I'm stupid". Congratulations on the stupendous achievement. While you are unabashedly basking in the priceless glory of our adulation, please consider few facts:
a) There's no race called ARYAN. It is only a term used to denote "noble qualities". Later on, it got corrupted to include "noble family = royal and/ or highly educated family"....thus from qualities of a person regardless of race, it changed to denote people from a birth/ position stand point.
b) There's no Aryan INVASION which pushed native Indians into rest/ south of India
>> When there has never been an ARYAN race, how can there be an ARYAN invasion? Dimwits like you fed on Anti-Indian literature purportedly to drump up the superiority of aliens (like Brits, Arabbi dogs) lapped this hare brained theory as though it were gospel truth. Logic has never been your community's strength anyways. So you will not understand much. But let me try..
India had many waves of migration from foreign lands over many centuries. Some of these migrations even resulting in inter-mixing with indigenous people. Some of these migrations could be as ancient as 3000 BC (Mahabharata war). So with migration came inter-mixing..with inter-mixing came some cultural components that got assimilated/ adapted. However, the "core native culture" always remained as is.
Ever asked this question: If HINDUISM is native and there was an external "FOREIGN-ism" which defeated it, then where is this "FOREIGN-sim" today ? From Nepal (Pashupati nath), to Pakistan (SHakti temple), to Afghanistan (Both Hinduism, Buddhism) to Kanya Kumari there's only one diverse umbrella school of thought : INDIC of which Hinduism is the largest. So either there was no FOREIGN-ism or HINDU-ism was so profound that it assimilated this foreign thought. Now since the latter is more probable, does it not mean that there may never have been a "FOREIGN-ism" (like Islam & Christianity are definitely "FOREIGN-isms" and they exist today in India....correct?) ?
Since you guys are brain dead, you will never understand any of it. Which is why GOD gave you a manual "Quran" and said "do this 5 times", "marry 4 wives", "kill jews" etc....because you guys operate only in an instructional mode and not in an intelligent mode.
c) We did not realize we were HINDUS because of external parasitic idiots like you. We never had a religion like you certified morons do. We always had a way of life (which is what you guys are shamelessly rebranding Mozzie ways as). Our way of life is called "Sanatana Dharma" (Eternal way of life). You morons could never understand anything as profound simply because our ways are like from KG to Ph.D (all levels of intelligence) but your ways were like KG (all levels of intelligence should be dumbed down to subscribe to one lowest IQ level) . So how can an Arabbi dog understand Nobel prize thesis ? It won't. So the Muhammadanists called the Sindhu inhabitant way of life as "Sindhu" which got corrupted to "HINDU".

Nevertheless Müller's work contributed to the developing interest in Aryan culture which set Indo-European ('Aryan') traditions in opposition to Semitic religions. He was deeply saddened by the fact that these later came to be expressed in racist terms. This was far from Müller's own intention. For Müller the discovery of common Indian and European ancestry was a powerful argument against racism, arguing that "an ethnologist who speaks of Aryan race, Aryan blood, Aryan eyes and hair, is as great a sinner as a linguist who speaks of a dolichocephalic dictionary or a brachycephalic grammar" and that "the blackest Hindus represent an earlier stage of Aryan speech and thought than the fairest Scandinavians".

Even the so called rabid, rabie-d proponents of Aryan Invasion have changed it to Aryan migration. In time, they too will accept there were never Aryans. It was a ploy to weaken Indian society and establish superiority of Aryan race over other "global" races.
STUPIDS like you believe in any shit that's non-Islamic in origin. Which is why you have a Quran, Sharia : INSTRUCTION MANUALS about life. We have intelligent frameworks. Nothing wrong with INstruction manuals either. But remember it is designed for low IQ people. From the looks of it, Mozzies deserve what they recieved from Allah.
Mozzie brutality
Well, I guess Siasat will continue to block my posts and hence truth as well.
As always this must be a truck load of crap by Siasat. Even if it was true, there's a simple logic to explain: Muslims and Dalits typically come under economically backward community (yes, I'm generalizing...but hear me out). So there's a good chance that the end up sharing the same localities of a city (like here). As you know, a typical Mozzie is a bully who harasses others. So Mozzies must have harassed Dalits over many years. After Godhra happened, they may even have gloated. This must have elicited a strong response from Dalits. Simple si baat hai.
Violence begets violence. Love begets love.
When Mozzies start loving India and Indians instead of Arabia and Ummah, everything else will fall in place and India will be a heaven on earth.
Look at Siasat, there are so many Mozzies in support of Osama and against indic & progressive ways (Vande Mataram, Shah Bano, Parition, Ayodhya etc ). That's why there are conflicts galore.
If these regressive Mozzies become spiritual muslims and/or progressive muslims, then they will become human beings and there will be happiness all around.
Jai HIND
Fake news by biased urdu
Fake news by biased urdu media. Urdu media by publishing false and uncredible news and pushing muslims into darkness. Urdu media is funded by cross border radical islamic groups. Indian muslims enjoyed 65 years of democracy, got their share of resources, enjoyed freedom to preach and practice their faith , still they are backward. The only reason is Urdu media.
The laddaf, kharji and ashraf muslmans are the biggest fans of Urdu media
Kafirs
These backward class hindus are nothing but piece of there own shit destroying India and its secularism and these Hinduvat terrorist groups BJP/VHP/SHIV SENA/RSS is made of these illetrate and backward class Hindus and there ideology is based on Hinduvata terrorism
bad story
not a healthy write up ..newspapers should desist from creating such confusion amongst their readers.. gujrat was a blot on secular india ..muslims n dalits have been friends thru centuries .. the writer has made an attempt to create a discord amongst muslims n dalits ..and trying to say the upper caste who has traditionally been anti muslim is an advocate for muslim cause ..every community has its gud n bad .. lets not get into further divisions ..
Untouchability is in human
Since the day 1 of this universe came to existence we Muslim never heart any living organism unless and until if anybody starts enmity, therefore i say don’t teas us and face bad time.
Its nice article. Good to
Its nice article. Good to know that some of the officers stood firmly & performed their duties for which they have been given the unifrom. The other aspect is that it was all planned by RSS, VHP, BJP etc. which are all dominated by higher caste. They sponsered the carrnage & provided money & other benefits to the participants. Some light should be put on this aspect also.

Dalits
Dear Gentlemen.
Who is a Dalit in India today? It is the poor Brahmin. Indians blaming them for what their ancestors did generations ago, now the present generations are made to count and punished. They do not have any say in matters of national interest or reservations for jobs. Where as the other higher caste Hindu like Reddy,Yeddys, Kammas, Kaapus, Thakurs, Yadavs etc had always ruled and rule even today. From time immemorial a Brahmin was only used to offer religous/ official dispensations . These brilliant people are hardworking and sincere. Ofcourse, they are the ones who make and break policies on the instruction of the majority massess. enblock Dalits make the majority in India and no one can ever question their dictat. No political party can ever dare touch them simply because they fall out of grace.
Also the radical BJP, VHP, RSS want them to do their dirty work because some from the higher caste Hindus are good at provoking and inciting.
If Muslims need to progress in India, my sincere advise is befriend a Brahmin. Brahmins are intellectual people and they dont depend on politics and power to earn their livelyhood. For the fear of self respect they dont stoop low as other low castes to get their fill.
Dalit
In India Dalit is refered to Converted Christians for example our ex- chief justice of india / ex- president / ex- speaker ( Andra Pradesh) list goes on, the problem is these missionaires set the minds of converts, my personel expericence is these converts have venom than anyother non muslim. i am sure this is handiwork of these anti national/ christians terrorism elements.
Punish Responsible.
I Request our respected government to punish those who are responsible for these riots and creating enmity between to religion both the religions respects each other. But these Selfish and opportunist peoples for there benefits are slaughtering innocent peoples and playing with law & order.
Misusing government funds police power, denameing police & the police prestige
creating fear in the hearts with the name of police. I hope our government is no blind folded. Greeting to all those Honest and Sincerely Police officers those perform there duties with liability to humanity.
Our India is Heaven dot turn it into Hell.
WAIT FOR TIME
WO GUJRAT PEOPLES
WAIT FOR TIME. GOD WILL PUNISH TO EVERYBODY. IRRESPECTIVE TO ALL.
BEST EXAMPLE IS NARASIMA ROA DEAD BODY (DOG EAT HIS MEAT)

GUJARAT IS NOT THE INTEGRAL PART OF INDIA.
IT SEEMS THAT THE GUJARAT IS NOT THE INTEGRAL PART OF INDIA, BECAUSE DESPITE THOUSAND INNOCENT KILLED AND SEVERAL FAMILIES BEEN LOOTED, STILL THEY WAITING FOR JUSTICE, MORE SURPRISING THAT THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS THAT THE MAN BEHIND THE GUJARAT INCIDENT IS ON THE TOP POST, NO ONE DARE TO TOUCH HIM, AS ALL THE LAW AND ORDER ARE CONTROLLING DIRECTLY HIMSELF AND IT LOOKS HE IS ABOVE THE LAW OF THE LAND.
Caste system in India
I recall when I was in India during 1945 riots between
Muslims and Hindus and Sikhs, when there was curfew in
the city, I was standing at the front gate of my house.
i saw a boy about 14 years of age being chased by some
Muslim boys who were holding knives and clubs in their
hands, knowing that they will catch that boy and kill
him, I opened my door for him and asked him to get in.
He came in crying, and I shut the door and took him in
my house. My mother hugged him and told him that he was
safe and we would take him to his house in the knight.
He was offered food and water, but he refused food although
it was vegetable since he was from a high caste Hindu
family. At night my father and I took a lantern and went
out by the back lane to his house which was about a mile
or so away. We found all his family members were crying
and sobbing for him. He ran to his family and pointed
towards us. The whole family came, and I remember his
father and mother raised their hands and said "only Bhagwan
will reward you for your kindness". then we left safely
back home. I grew up among Hindus and had my best friends
both among upper and lower caste Hindus. I sincerely
pray that this ugly caste system goes away from my
mother land.
Movie
I saw this movie once.... & then it was repeated many times in difrrent languages.
very nice story but one mistake in your story. you should have been upper cast & the boy should have been from lower cast. now if you save a lower cast boy & go to his parents & hug them, then the story would be more nice.
& one more advice when you show this flashback show it in B/W as it is 1947.
