Imam allowance sets off in Malda
Communalization of politics will rape Bengal only
There has been lots of hue and cry from people
against the calamitous generosity of Didi
on Imams across the state (followed by Muazzins) but the juggernaut of ruling
clique in Bengal, to strengthen the Islamic vote bank and (thus) secure its
prolonged existence in the corridors of power, is unabated and the onset of
allowances to Imams in the district of Malda proves it best. Well, you can
certainly ask (being a citizen in a democratic country) the nitty-gritty of
this decision, taken by a cash-strapped government virtually, - many have
already done it but Didi’s choicest
thing on earth (Imams) is invulnerable and can’t be obstructed from getting the
celestial (?) aids through her.
On May 30, 2012, cheques were given to 32 Imams in
Malda and in accordance with Dr. Archana, District Magistrate of Malda, all
have been done to strengthen the spirit of harmony throughout the district. It
has been learnt, procedures to make the government’s decision a reality started
a few days ago and the form of application was sent to almost all Imams. She
also said that Malda, being a Muslim-dominated district, earns a special
attention from different echelons of the government in this regard. There
happens to be 2500 Imams (at least) in Malda, as per governmental records, and
applications of 1056 Imams have been duly checked by now. Imams having core
banking account will get the money through banks altogether and will not have
to travel all the way to district administration office in Malda in such a
sordid summer.
Each Imam was given allowance of
one-and-a-half-month (starting from April, 2012) amounting to Rs. 3, 719.
Without a shred of doubt, the newly-founded
tradition will go on vigorously and strengthen with each month it passes.
Democratic culture of India has an unparallel feature
also – new governments are not (commonly) found to scrub decisions of earlier
governments. And surely no party in Bengal , in
the following days, will dare to rescind Imam allowance – all have got to
remain secular and tolerant.
Thus begins a new journey, weird (in every
capacity) in the political culture of Bengal (from
August 15, 1947 thus far), leading to the utter communalization of its political
scenario.
What’s if Hindus remain indignant? Who does care
for them? Let them go for personal salvation and sing hymns in temples; beggars
are not allowed to address, not to mention their own aspirations or agonies.
