Mumbai gets its first Shariah court to settle civil, marital disputes.

Shariah court Talibani effortMohammed Wajihuddin, TNN | MUMBAI | Apr 29, 2013:: The city is set to get its first Darul Qaza or Shariah court to settle civil and marital disputes in the Muslim community. The court, set up by the All India Muslim Personal Law Board, will be inaugurated on Monday at Anjuman-i-Islam, near CST, and will serve to fill a long-felt need of the community.

Shariah courts already function at many places in the country, such as Hyderabad, Patna and Malegaon. Here qazis appointed by the AIMPLB hear the community’s various disputes, barring criminal cases, and deliver judgements. “This court will function to settle mainly family disputes pertaining to marriage, divorce and inheritance. Marriage disputes will be settled quickly and the couples will be told to either reconcile or separate if reconciliation is not possible. It will save the community much time and money as fighting cases in civil courts is expensive and time-consuming,” said AIMPLB secretary Maulana Wali Rahmani.

For a dispute to be heard by a Shariah court, both the parties in the dispute will have to approach the court. If one of the parties has approached a civil court, then it will have to withdraw the case for the Shariah court to accept the matter.

Rahmani said Shariah courts do not compete with the civil courts. “On the contrary, Shariah courts will lower the burden of the civil courts where thousands of cases are pending and the judges are overworked,” he said.

Senior advocate and head of AIMPLB’s legal cell Yusuf Muchalla called the city’s Shariah court a “significant alternative dispute settlement mechanism”. “This court will decide within the framework of Muslim personal laws and mainly deal with matrimonial disputes. This is a kind of domestic tribunal set up by the Muslim community.” He added that district and high courts in Bihar, Jharkhand, Bengal and Orissa have upheld several decisions given by the Shariah courts established by the Imarat-e-Shariah (House of Shariah) headquartered in Patna. Muchalla maintained that the Shariah courts were well within the law of the land.

BAN SHARIA COURT IN BHARAT. Its nothing but a project of  dangerous “Shariah for Hind“.

SHARIA COURTS ARE ULTRA-VIRES CONSTITUTION

By Brigadier Chitranjan Sawant,VSM

The Constitution of India that the constituent assembly had framed with great diligence and dedication was promulgated on 26 January 1950. Among its Directive Principles there is a recommendation for the Common Civil Code. Indeed it is a pity that the proposed code remains just a piece of paper in the teeth of opposition from many ethnic and religious parties mainly the Muslims.

Violating the spirit of the Constitution, many political parties with high ambitions but low vote gathering mechanism took recourse to appeasement of the Muslim community. The Indian National Congress, the Samajwadi Party, the Indian Union Muslim League and so on spearheaded a movement to let the Muslim community not only have full freedom in observing their personal law but went a step ahead and asked for establishment of Shariah Courts to entertain and decide law suits relating to marital disputes and other personal law problems provided both parties are Muslims and no party has already approached the civil courts established under law of the land.

Mumbai, Maharashtra has had the first Shariah Court inaugurated today, 30 April 2013.

In my opinion it is a sad day for the administration of civil law in Bharat as courts have been bifurcated on the basis of religion leading to further bifurcation of thought and ideas of different communities inhabiting this great land.Thank God the criminal law and its administration remains common to citizens of all faiths. We should be thankful to the British legal luminaries, judges and Indian lawyers who were far sighted and did not allow Shariah anywhere near administration of criminal justice.

With a view to honoring the founding fathers of our Constitution who favoured the Common Civil Code for men and women of all faiths who were citizens of India, we should strive to have at least common civil courts to administer justice in civil law of one and all.Shariah courts are negation of the lofty principles of Uniform Civil Code that our Constitution stands for.

Let us strive to honour the provisions of our Constitution both in letter and spirit so that Bharat moves forward as a united nation commanding the respect of civilized human beings.

Shariah Courts are a part of the Separatist and Divisive tactics of some Muslim organisations. The aim is to separate the Muslim majority areas and administer it differently. Looking at history, we find that Sir Shahnawaz Bhutto pressured the then govt to bifurcate Sindh from Bombay province. Later they had Sylhet in the East separated from the Hindu majority Assam and made it a part of East-Pakistan. Now the courts are being separated for Muslim civil disputes to be adjudicated by the Shariah courts. Thus the foundation is being laid by the anti-national elements to have as many divisions of the Indian social set up as possible so that Islamic Jihad can prevail. The Nationalist elements must oppose it tooth and nail and prevent vivisection of our Bharat.

NRI Hindus rally against Jihad in India at Indian Consulate in New York. “SAVE INDIA FROM ISLAM”.

Posted by hinduexistence on September 4, 2012

INDIAN HINDU RALLY AGAINST JIHAD AT INDIAN CONSULATE AT NEW YORK: “SAVE INDIA FROM ISLAM“.

atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com||  Sunday, September 02, 2012 :: To the deafening chants of “Save India from Islam,” the Indian Hindu people gathered today on 5th Avenue by the Indian consulate in New York City to protest the relentless jihad against the free and brave nation.

India has long suffered at the hands of jihadists. At least 80 million Hindus have been slaughtered in jihadi wars. Centuries of persecution, oppression, genocide.

The history of India is teeming with Muslim monsters such as Timur the Terrible, who paraphrased the Koran: “‘O prophet, make war against the infidels and treat them severely.’ My great object in invading Hindustan (India) had been to wage a religious war against the infidelHindus.” And he did. Hundreds of thousands of Hindus were beheaded and towers made of their skulls. The warrior Babur was particularly fond of raising higher and higher towers of Hindu heads that the Muslims had cut off during and after every battle. He loved to sit in his royal tent and watch this spectacle. On one such occasion, the ground flowed with so much blood “and became so filled with quivering carcasses that his tent had to be moved thrice to a higher level.” (That’s from The Koran and the Kafir, by A. Ghosh.) He only missed the “merit” ofdemolishing temples and breaking symbols and images because his predecessor Firuz Tughlak hardly left any for him in the territories he traversed.

The record of jihad in India is extremely and unimaginably bloody. Mahmud of Ghazni, Mohammed Ghori, Firuz Tughlak, Timur, Muzaffar Shah, Mahmud Begarha, Mahmud Khalji, Ilyas Shah, Babur, Sher Shah Suri, Akbar the Great, Jahangir, Shah Jahan, Aurangzib, Abdali, Tipu Sultan, Siraj-ud-Daula, and so many others all persecuted, humiliated, tortured, terrorized, and slaughtered the Hindus throughout Islamic history in India.

The war against the infidel in India is monstrous, unremitting, and constant to the present day. From Mumbai to Kashmir, all over India north and south, the jihad rages..(more here.)

MEMORANDUM TO THE PRIME MINISTER OF INDIA 

September 2, 2012

Dr. Manmohan Singh
The Prime Minister of India
New Delhi

Through Consul General of India
New York, USA

Sub: India in Danger -
After Kashmir Radical Islam Taking Over Assam in North East
Jihad Spreading Far and Wide

Dear Prime Minister Singh:
The socio-political, religious and militant expansionist turbulence well within the boundaries of the country, with the participation of the transnational radical Islam, which is seemingly shaking the foundations of India, has given millions of Indo-Americans, their organizations and friends of India a serious cause for concern about the solidarity and integrity of India. The partisan policy of the establishment framed under the influence of the “politics of vote banks” has seemingly turned the situation all the more precarious. Progressively the country seems to be drifting in to the demographic, administrative and environmental chaos that existed during the dreadful days of partition in 1947.

Hindu Rashtra Conference in West Bengal.

Posted by hinduexistence on August 30, 2012

The Inauguration Of Hindurashtra Summit West Bengal Successfully Started With Passion For Hindurashtra

Hindurashtra Will Certainly Be Established With A Combination of Brahmatej and Kshatratej  - Sri Charudatt Pingley, National Guide, Hindu Janajagruti Samiti.
 
Upananda Brahmachari, Mahesh Yogi, Charudutta Pingley
and Swami Pradiptananda (L to R) inaugurating the programme
Hindu Janjagruti Samiti organised a historical Hindu Rastra Adhiveshan(10th – 14th June, 2012) at Ramnathi, Goa for the re-establishment of Hindu Rashtra in Bharat within 2025. It was resolved then to hold state level conference in each state for the materialization of Hindu Rashtra in Bharat. In this connection a state level conference is being organised at Arya Samaj Mandir, Salkia Howrah, on 25th and 26thAugust, 2012.
………………………………
In the inaugural session the saints and dignitaries namely Swami Pradiptanandaji Maharaj, Bharat Sevashram Sangha, Swami Mahesh Yogi, Arya Samaj, Haridwar, Pujya Charudutta Pingle, Hindu Janajagruti Samiti, emphasied on the immediate need for the Hindurashtra.
………………………………..
 
The audience observing the program
…………………………….
The grand occasion started with the inspirational speech of Swami Pradiptanandaji Maharaj from Beldanga Bharat Sebashram Sangh. He took the audience to the world of Hindurashtra where they could taste its essence in the uplifting of the nation as well as the universe and the need for Indians in general and Hindus in particular to make their lives status better in the current pseudo-secular nation. He revealed the way how Hindurashtra can be achieved in a path concreted by spirituality on one hand and nationalism on the other. The saint resembled Swami Vivekananda whom the westerners called a “soldier saint” due to his inbuilt nationalist spirituality. After listening to his intellectual caliber and stern voice one can easily guess why is he facing constant threats from the jihadists?

Baba Ramdev is helping Muslims to send them in huge number in all State Assemblies and Indian Parliament. What a conspiracy?

Posted by hinduexistence on May 15, 2012

A most dangerous move By Baba Ramdev towards Muslim appeasement.

Those who have not full faith in Indian Constitution, how they claim full rights and reservation from it?

 ~ Upananda Brahmachari.

The whole media, a greater section of Arya Samaj, actually the whole Hindu Samaj in broader concept, Constitutional experts, true national politicians with some of intellect, everybody all on a sudden stuck with a severe blow from Baba Ramdev as he surprised concerned sections  by supporting Muslims for their claim of reservation under Art. 341 of Indian constitution. Knowing nothing about  the provisions, implication and jurisdiction of Art 341 and the conspiracy of Muslims demanding such a facility publicly and  behind the scene, Baba declared his support for Muslims in this matter as Baba has set his eyes only to grab Muslim supports to make his success in 2014 election ventures.

When all are desperately waiting and preparing for the 3rd June, 2012 to drive a massive movement to bring back the black money, Baba Ramdevji, really surprised all patriots yesterday (on12/05/2012, Saturday) by supporting and by declaring that he is going to fight for Muslim and Christian Dalit Reservation with the amendments in article 341 of Indian Constitution. Baba was addressing a conference at the venue of India Muslim Cultural Center, New Delhi, as convened by All India United Muslim Morcha. This Morcha has definite connection with Kerala Muslim League and United Muslim Democratic Front, two dangerous Muslim Political outfit to destroy Indian Secular and Democratic threads in majority main stream.

Stepping away from the RSS stand, Yoga Guru Baba Ramdev supported Muslim leaders in their demand for reservation for both Muslim and Christian dalits and sought their active participation in his black money campaign. It is now heard that Baba Rambev will demand the rights of conversion by Christians and Muslims from Hindus soon under a pressure of Muslim-Christian lobby helping (eye-washing) Ramdev in his Anti Corruption movement.

“I did not know till recently that Article 341 does not cover Muslims and Christian Dalits. This is not fair. dalit is a dalit, whether s/he is a Hindu, Christian or a Muslim. So, all Dalits should get equal rights. We will have to struggle to achieve this. We will launch a struggle (for this). I extend my whole-hearted support,” he said.

Article 341 of Indian constitution of India is  a PART of XVI dealing with SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO CERTAIN CLASSES. It starts with Article 330 and ends with Article 342. Actually, Muslims are now trying to get inserted in the Scheduled Caste ( Art. 341) category and certainly they are not satisfied with their just Dalit status in Mandal Commission or  Ranganath Mishra Commission or in Sachar Committee Reports. As the provisions of Dalits or OBC (Other Backward Classes) give only the reservation in jobs and various scholarships and loans/grants etc. to them, it never be counted synonymous to the rights of the SC and ST communities in the Hindu fold who get the seat reservation in the State Assemblies and the Parliament by the virtue of PART  XVI of Indian Constitution. Now, this Muslim Morcha demands the Scheduled Caste Rights to grab the political power in every State Assembly and in the Indian Parliament with their reservation rights in Indian Polity through Art. 341 and they gradually will extend their demands upto Art.330. And Baba Ramedv preponderantly supported those who love Sharitat at the highest level than their life and treat Indian Constitution as a political tool to make ease to reach to the goal of Shariyat. It is must but should be clear for Revered Baba that the whole Hindu community may reject him for advocating much Muslim rights than the preaching of reasonable responsibilities of Muslim community  in obeying Indian Constitution whole heartedly. Baba Ramdev is advocating absurd rights  for those  Muslim propagators who believe in Shariyat and desire to capture Delhi again through  getting reservation facilities from the top of Indian Parliament (for ruling India again as Akbar, Sahajahan or Aurangjeeb) down to the Hindu families (for making Love Jihad and so on).  Those who have not full faith in Indian Constitution, how they claim full rights and reservation from it?

In Kerala, Andhra Pradesh  and some other states in India, the Muslim and Christian OBCs are getting more facilities than the Hindu OBCs. And Muslims and Christian OBCs are gradually encroaching the facilities from the share of Hindus.

Baba Rambev succumb unnecessary pressure from Muslim pressure groups and equating a ‘Dead hand of Islam’, ‘Brute Muhammad’ or a ‘Satanic Verses – Quran’ with real Dharma (Virtue)  and Darhshan (Philosophy) of Aryavarta-Bharat-Hindusthan. Does Baba Ramdev want to discard 14th chapter of Satyartha Prakash, where Swami Dyananda vehemently opposed the unreasonable, eccentric and unscientific Quran? Is Baba Ramdev is going to be another Swami Agnivesh?

Image

A copy of Quran (with translation in Hindi) was offered to Baba Ramdev. To Muslims Quran is the final words for everything. Will BaBa be kicked off as Jogendra Nath Mondal, the lone Hindu Minister in Pakistan?   

Instead of plainly supporting or opposing Baba Ramdevji, we just wish to share some points. Decision is with you.

  1. “1. Majority Hindus has supported Baba Ramdevji, and his Bharat Swabhiman Trust from the core of heart, by money and by becoming volunteers. His main force is Hindu Clan. Why he is wooing Muslims like all pseudo secular political parties?
  2. 2. To gain the support from Muslims, or to feel and to prove himself as the greatest secular compromising the interest of country’s unity and integrity, Baba Ramdev is going to fight for Dalit Muslims and even Dalit Christians.  Baba Ramdevji is surprised to know that Article 341 doesn’t give reservation to Dalit Muslims and Christians. Is it something that Baba Ramdevji, doesn’t know about Minority commission?
  3. Is it something that Baba Ramdevji doesn’t know the root cause of partition of Hindusthan, the reservation policy on the basis of Religion?
  4. Muslims and Christians already have special status in this secular country for being ‘Minority’ despite increasing population, now how can they demand the invasion in Hindu Dalit Reservation? And more surprisingly how can anybody support and fight for such demand?
  5. What was and is the contribution of Muslims in the anti corruption movement by Baba Ramdevji as compared to Hindus?
  6. Why can’t Muslims contribute any movement just as an ‘Indian Citizen’?
  7. Is doing something for the country is a favor on our motherland that Muslims want to be paid just for ‘showing’ the support to any cause?
  8. And by this way are Muslims blackmailing now, just like they blackmailed Gandhiji and which resulted in the partition of the country with massacre of Hindus and rapes on Hindu women which is still continued in Pakistan?
  9. Is it something that Baba Ramdevji has thought him more important than the country, just because he has served the country by Patanjali Yogapeeth  being Yoga Guru/Legend by spreading the Pranayam and selling Ayurveda on which Hindus just not claimed any copy right?
  10. We won’t oppose if Baba Ramdevji would enter politics to fight with corruption or by any other desire, it is his choice after all, but here his behavior and people’s reaction on his statements yesterday in All India Muslim United Morcha he has used and played with the emotions of common people who had trust and faith on him, who were ready to die for him in the name of a ‘Saffron Sanyasi’. Is Baba Ramdev getting worst in spirituality and best in adjustability?
  11. On which basis Baba Ramdevji has compared Puran, Vedas and Quran? Is it according the teachings of Arya Samaj and Swami Dayananda Saraswati? How does he compare a butcher like man with Lord Krishna and Lord Ram? Very shameful.
  12. Last question is very important for us and all the patriot Hindus,

“Will we ever get a spiritual leader who will fight for the justice of Hindus, for the Hindutva, just like Swami Vidyaranya became the kingmaker of Vijayanagar Empire during the worst Islamists’ Invasions and remained as the mentor of the empire for the three generations?

Will we ever get a Spiritual leader like Samarth Ramdas Swami who made a king like Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj?

Will it not be a dawn again when the Sikh Khalsha will reign Bharat further under Gairik Dwajh (Saffron Flag)” ???

Supreme Court of India orders Haj subsidy cut. Phase out Haj subsidy in ten years: SC to Govt.

Posted by hinduexistence on May 8, 2012

India’s Supreme Court orders Hajj subsidy cut.

Every year, about 125,000 Indian Muslims (most of them are rich – Ed. HE) are subsidised to go on the Hajj.

BBC input:  Supreme Court o India has barred the government from giving subsidies to Muslim pilgrims going on the Hajj.

The court said the policy was “best done away with” and told the authorities to gradually reduce the subsidy and abolish it in 10 years.

The court also said that the government’s “goodwill delegation” to Mecca must not exceed two members. It currently has 30 people.

India provides billions of rupees every year to people going on the Hajj.

Pilgrims apply through the Hajj Committee of India and are offered a concessionary fare on the national airline, Air India.

Every year, about 125,000 pilgrims take the subsidy.

The pilgrims are charged 16,000 rupees ($302; £187) air fare. A regular Delhi-Jeddah flight would cost about double that.

Last month, the government told the Supreme Court that it had decided to restrict the subsidy to one pilgrimage per person.

At the moment, it is available to a Hajj pilgrim once every five years.

The government also said that priority would be given to pilgrims older than 70 and those who had never visited Mecca.

Phase out Haj subsidy in ten years, Supreme Court tells Govt: 10 big facts.

NDTV input: New Delhi | Reported by A Vaidyanathan | Updated: May 08, 2012 :  The Supreme Court wants the central government to phase out its policy of giving subsidies to Haj pilgrims.

Here are the 10 big facts of the case:

1.    Directing the government to progressively “eliminate” its subsidy within a period of 10 years, a bench of justices Aftab Alam and Ranjana Prakash Desai said today, “We hold that this (subsidy) policy is best done away with.” This interim order is also applicable to the Haj pilgrimage of 2012.

2.    The bench also directed the government to reduce the number of its representatives in the Prime Minister’s goodwill delegation from 30 to two.

3.    The court also said that it will look into the functioning of Haj Committee of India and its process for selecting people for the pilgrimage.

4.    The court was hearing an appeal filed by the Centre challenging a Bombay High Court judgement which had directed the Ministry of External Affairs to allow certain private operators to handle 800 of the 11,000 pilgrims earmarked under the VIP quota subsidised by the government.

5.    The bench had expanded the purview of the plea and decided to look into the legality of the government’s policy on granting subsidies to Haj pilgrims.

6.    Muslim members of Parliament have welcomed the decision. “The Haj subsidy of Rs. 600 crore is given to Air India and not pilgrims… Under this garb of subsidy, it (money) is going to Air India which is a sick airline,” Majlis-e- Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi told reporters.

7.    A senior member of Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind, Niyaz Farooqi, said that pilgrims do not get the benefits of the Haj subsidy. The government should shift focus on providing better accommodation and food facility to the pilgrims, he said adding, “Despite the subsidy, pilgrims have to pay extra for the trip.”

8.    In an affidavit, the Centre had told the court that it has decided to restrict Haj pilgrimage at government subsidy to Muslims only as a “once in a lifetime” affair as against the existing policy of “once in five years”. It had said the new guidelines have been framed to ensure that priority is given to those applicants who have never performed Haj.

9.    The government, however, had refrained from disclosing the amount of subsidy being incurred by it for 2012, saying, “The exact figure in respect of the travel subsidy to the pilgrims going through Haj Committee of India for 2012 will be known after the Hajis completed their Haj journey and return to India.”

10.    India has a quota of 1.70 lakh pilgrims every year. Of these, about 1.25 lakh are selected through Haj committees.  Rest of the pilgrims go through private operators. The government subsidy is approximately Rs. 40,000  for each pilgrim selected by the Haj Committees. (with PTI inputs).

“Politicising” Haj by permitting official delegations to accompany the pilgrims, for which the government offers huge subsidy, “is a bad religious practice.” – SC.

Phase out Haj subsidy in ten years: SC to govt.

HT input: The Supreme Court today struck down the government’s policy of giving subsidies to Haj pilgrims and directed that it should be progressively “eliminated” within a period of 10 years.

“We hold that this policy is best done away with,” a bench of justices Altamas Kabir and Ranjana Prakash Desai held.

The bench also directed the government to reduce to two the number of its representatives in the Prime Minister’s goodwill delegation.

It said it will look into the functioning of Haj Committee of India and it process for selecting people for Haj pilgrimage.

The apex court was hearing an appeal filed by the Centre challenging a Bombay high court judgement which had directed the ministry of external affairs to allow certain private operators to handle 800 of the 11,000 pilgrims earmarked under the VIP quota subsidised by the government.

The bench while hearing the plea of the Centre had expanded the purview of the plea and decided to look into the legality of the government’s policy on granting subsidies to Haj pilgrims.

During the hearing in the case, the Centre had defended the policy of giving subsidies to the Haj pilgrims and had said it had framed guidelines so that people get subsidies only once in their lifetime. Read details.

HINDU EXISTENCE WELCOME THIS VERDICT OF HON’BLE SUPREME COURT OF INDIA ON HAJ SUBSIDY CUT. WE WILL GO TO SC VERY SOON FOR GIVING IRRATIONAL AND UNJUSTIFIED IMAM AND MUEZZIN HONORARIUM BY GOVT OF  WEST BENGAL.  WE DEMAND COMMON CIVIL CODE FOR MUSLIMS IN INDIA. INDIA IS NOT A MUSLIM COUNTRY. HINDUS MUST NOT BE-FOOLED. SUPPORT US.
