I am not Mahatma by Harshavardhan C (win 10 ebook reader .TXT) 📖

The gunman suggested him politely.

Arjun thought for a while and left his gunman to take care of his better half. He instructed him to assist her in case of emergency.

“It is not sufficient sir” Driver Swami suggested him.

“What?” Arjun got annoyed.

“I am sorry sir. My son in law is also a cop. He left my daughter alone without any attendant when she was carrying ninth month. She got labour pains. Unfortunately there was no vehicle available” Driver Swami couldn’t continue as he recollecting the death of his pregnant daughter.

“I am sorry Swami, anyway thanks for your elderly advise and will you please do some favour to me?”

“Yes sir”

“Swami, you please stay back along with the vehicle and you both take care of my wife” He said politely.

“Sure Sir, but how will my officer go Sir?”

“Doesn’t matter Swami, I use escort vehicle” Arjun got down his vehicle.

Swami saluted him and later he drove his vehicle to the administrative building where Honey was entertaining the kids.

The driver of the escort vehicle drove his vehicle, being boarded by ACP Arjun. When the vehicle was crossing the main gate of the convent, a series of land mines were blasted under the newly laid speed breakers in front of the main gate and the escort vehicle was blown up to sky high.

Honey was shocked on seeing the ghastly incident. She ran towards the scene with a 9mm pistol. But, she was gun down by the militants, who had already ambushed her from nearby. She fell on the ground in a pool of blood.

The terrorists were not bent upon for sentiments and so also bullets had no feelings. As a result of which the still born twins died along with Mrs. Honey in her womb.

The escort vehicle in which ACP Arjun travelling, was shattered into pieces and fell helter-skelter. There was not even one percent of chance for survival of any of the occupants of the vehicle.

The nightmare--------

In the debris of the escort vehicle, the half burnt personal diaries of Mrs. Rebecca Solomon and Dr. Glady D’ Souza were found. In fact they were preserved by ACP Arjun during the course of his investigation.

It may be a sheer coincidence that the first sentence in the diaries of both Mrs. Rebecca Solomon and Dr. Glady D’ Souza was ‘I am not Mahatma’. But both of them expected that the humanity should be blessed though not as Mahatmas but least humane.

The man who knew the truth was Mr. Arjun.

Though Honey wanted to know the name of the author the book, Arjun being a professional police officer didn’t disclose the secret even to her, an exceptional quality in his tradecraft of counter intelligence.

But, in the modern world all the citizens understood that ‘I am not Mahatma’ was the voice of the common man. It was enough if the citizens of the contemporary world knew the expectations of the common man.

Kudos to the departed souls of the police officers who sacrificed their lives for the cause of the nation, for protecting the lives and properties of their fellow beings. And red salute to the comrades who truthfully carried on the crusade against the civil administration for the cause of the poor and downtrodden with a fond hope that the poor, the oppressed and suppressed get their legitimate share and equality on par with the capitalists.

But the sectarian insurgency fighting against the cops are nothing but the religious bigots.

And to make their dream cum true Arjun wrote the book ‘I am not Mahatma’, based on the biographies of Mrs. Rebecca Solomon and Dr. Glady D’ Souza, for a better world where all must live in peace and tranquillity without fear.

 

Epilogue:

 

The history of terrorism anywhere in the world was no exception to the fact that after the civil war orphans remained on either side.

Mahatma Gandhi, the father of Indian nation, Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi, the Preministers of India; and Abraham Lincoln and John F Kennedy, the Presidents of the USA; Zulifikar Ali Bhutto and Muja bur Rehaman, the Preministers of Pakistan; Ran Singe Premadasa, the president of Sri Lanka and many more across the globe were not killed by divine or by demon but by human beings only.

Even those who were responsible for the great terror also couldn’t escape the wrath of the counter terror.

The assassin of the Father of the nation Mr. M. K. Gandhi, Nathuram Godsey was hanged to death.

The prime accused in the attack on Indian Parliament, Mr. Afjul guru; and the man behind the attack on Taj Hotel in Mumbai, Mr. Ajmal Kasab were hanged to death.

The man behind the assignations of Mr. Rajiv Gandhi (1991), the Prime Minister of India; and Rana Singhe Premadasa, the president of Sri Lanka was no other than Mr. Prabhakaran, the head of LTTE was shot dead by the special operation by Sri Lankan Military.

The master mind behind the suicidal attack on the world trade centre (2001) in the USA, Mr. Osama Bin Laden was shot dead by the American commandos.

Then what would be the fate of the accused in the Dhilshuk Nagar bomb Blasts (Hyderabad, 2013), Yasin Bhathal and Asdullah Attar?

What would be the fate of the heros of Laskhar-e-Taiba, Hafiz Muhammad Saeed and Abdul Karim Tunda, who were involved in more than 40 bomb blasts across the length and breadth of India?

What will be the ultimate fate of the Gangster Dawood Ibrahim (Man behind Mumbai Blasts, 1993) of India?

And terror has only the beginning, but it has no end. It continues, so long as there is no transformation in the mind of the humans which is depository of crimes.

There may not be definite solutions to nature created problems. But there are certainly some possible and probable solutions to the human creations. No terrorist is born. A terrorist is groomed. ‘Terror’ is human creation. There is not a single example in the world, where a terrorist has ever lived happily, least a fraction of second. No terrorist has heart fully smiled at least once in his life time, no terrorist breathed his last peace fully, and no terrorist gained anything, except leaving the worst legacy of genocide.

The terrorists laid down their lives, unwept, un- honoured, and unsung. They could not even find a place, least half a page in the history of the modern world. Then what for the great terror and terrorism is for the 21st century man?

Some terrorists preferred to die for their self-esteem. Some came out of their self-aggrandizement in the form of surrender to see the light. A few committed suicides leaving their ideology to fate.

Then how could the terrorists substantiate their dos and undo’s and finally stand for the scrutiny of the common man for their reign of terror?

Every terror has a grand preparation. But the innocent people are not ready to face it; unfortunately the innocent people still believe that all the humans’ are humane.

And now can any terrorist answer the innocent people, who are having absolute faith and belief in the mankind?

The innocent people don’t know the fact that the most powerful and more dangerous weapon to the mankind than the machine gun and the nuclear bomb is ‘Terrorism’, which is more than a ‘missile’

Gamblers play cards with currency. But, the terrorists are playing their game not on chess board but on the mother earth and that game is terror and the stake is human lives.

Ask any human being to speak truth about terrorism from the bottom of his heart. The truth is that no one wishes a civil war.

The divine, the legendary and the historic personalities do not wish to remain on papers, in books, in libraries and in museums and as statues in the streets. They all wish to see a Utopian Society, where there shall be one world nation, universal fraternity, peace and non violence in place of war and violence.

 

‘The weak can never forgive.

Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong’

 

--Mohan Das Karamchand Gandhi.

 

“No living being is immortal. Death is inevitable to all. But the humans can live forever even after their death, only when they rewrite their history not with the human blood but with peace and non- violence.

It is possible only when they transform themselves as humane.

No human being has the right to kill his fellow being, since he cannot turn the dead alive”

Harsavardhan. C

 

Post Script ------

 

The history of mankind starts only with the evolution of man and woman on the earth. And the recorded history of man and woman starts with the advent of civilizations and cultures.

Systems, customs and traditions are adopted in the civilized society to maintain rules and regulations.

Laws are passed in every country only to save and protect the weak from the strong. International laws are framed to balance powers among the countries.

And all the laws are only human created, but off late these are violated by the humans only.

Now can anyone accept?

[a] patricide [b] matricide [c] fratricide [d] genocide?

 

None of the universal parents, brothers and sisters will accept the ghastly murders.

 

But the history of mankind is not silent about terror and terrorist attacks, bomb blasts at shopping malls, at eateries, in trains, at railway stations and at bus stations, at temples, at mosques, at Churches and the so called terrorists are also human beings and earthen brothers and sisters of the victims. But why the genocide still continues across the globe?

 

Neither the innocent victims know it nor does the common man suspect anybody as the common man strongly believes in the historical facts that ‘Hindus and Muslims are two eyes of a Nation’; ‘Hindus and Muslims are bhai – bhai [brothers] are the famous slogans of the pre- Independence of both Pakistan and India. And surprisingly both the countries have attained independence on 14th and 15th August, 1947 respectively from the British. But on the contrary, both the countries are at logger heads since then. What happened to the united freedom fight by both the Hindus and Muslims against the British rule in Indian Peninsula, in whose tenure there was no place for terror, terrorism and terrorists. Along with Independence, do both the countries import the so called terrorism? What shall they answer the modern world now as once they both in unison won Independence for their countries’ through peace and non violence but now unable live together peacefully without war and violence and consequent bloodshed. How shameful it is for both the countries? How pathetic and barbarous it is to hear?

 

So also no day passes without the incident of terror across the globe. Then when can the common man expect peaceful and fearless living in the modern world?

 

What a great history is there in the modern world to teach our grand children and great grand children, except the history of human genocide?

 

It is not great to make a bomb; and the greater is not to blast it; but the greatest is to make the dead alive.

But is it possible?

 

Think and rethink till you get definite answer.

 

The End
