Caravan Magazine stoops to new low, plays dirty caste politics with Pulwama martyrs

Caravan, Pulwama, Martyrs, Caste

In an utterly shameful manner, The Caravan Magazine, a left-liberal mouthpiece, calls up families of Pulwama martyrs to find out their castes and wrote a bigoted article against giving a caste angle to the whole incident. The whole article is nothing but propaganda against the upper castes and moreover with the national integrity of India.

In an atrocious attack on the unity of Armed Forces, the article mentioned, “Underlying the feverish display of nationalism by the urban middle-class, comprised predominantly of upper-caste Indians, is an irony that few have paid attention to—the lower-caste poor account for most of the deaths”. However, while writing the article, the author forgot that the condolences and sympathy for the soldiers are coming from every section of society. Although he made a lot of effort in calling the family of martyrs and hurting them at the time of utter grief, he didn’t bother to come out of his AC cabin and roaming around in the slums of India. The loudest sound of nationalism comes from there.

In what can be called as a depraved and dogmatic way, The Caravan article, one by one, explained about the caste and community of each soldier and then somehow linked the Bharatiya Janata Party to it. The article claimed that BJP resorts to hyper-nationalism; however, it seems that the author was in a mode of “hyper imagination”. Moreover, the whole article seems like a fruitful use of ‘creative liberty’ and the last para of the article is beyond the reach of even the author’s imagination. In concluding lines of the article, it took a south turn and urged the NDA government to give the details of the caste identity of the martyrs. “The BJP has not spoken of the caste and class dimensions of those jawans who died in Pulwama. It is unlikely to do so—the party prefers to orchestrate the song of nationalism in the election year,” demanded The Caravan, in the article.

However, it is not new for these propaganda peddlers to give a communal colour to every incident and gain political mileage out of it. This seems to be another shot of the liberal establishment towards shifting the focus from the abhorrent attack in Pulwama. The cabal is trying every trick in their book to do so. In order to shift focus from the Pulwama attack, the first one was liberal invented imaginary attacks on Kashmiris all over India and later resorted to the Barkha Dutt’s episode on Twitter. However, their attack has been thoroughly debunked till now.

Not to forget that these epitomes of hypocrisy, masquerade as journalists are agents of the Congress party, who spit venom whenever being directed by their handlers. The attack on Hindutva and nationalism of India is what these elites have resorted to, in order to remain relevant. On one hand, these handlers hail praise the Hindutva and claim to be ‘Janeu dhari Hindu’ and on the other hand backstab the Hindus sentiments by backing liberal establishment. Now, I want to ask the Gandhi scion that; who is doing ‘Khun Ki Dalali’ here!
