Six major rebel groups of the WESEA region called total ban on India's Independence day

Imphal, August 11 2020: Six major rebel groups operating in WESEA region has called total ban on India's Independent Day .

A statement signed by Sainkupar Nongtraw, Publicity Secretary, Hynniutrep National liberation Council (HNLC) , Ksh.

Laba Meitei, President, Kangleipak Communist Party (KCP) , Jiban Singh Koch, Chairman, Kamatapur Liberation Organization, (KLO), N Oken Chairman , Kanglei Yawol kanna Lup (KYKL) , H Uastwng Borok, President, National Liberation Front of Twipra , (NLFT), J K Lijang, Chairman People's Democratic Council of Karbilongri (PDCK) said that India is going to celebrate her Independence Day on the 15th of August 2020 .

Even though some Indian nationalist historians claimed her to have been an ethnic melting pot, she has never been able to attain the status of an ethnically harmonious political entity.

After 73 years of power-backed hectic national integration programs, she has still more than 2000 distinct languages.

Even the Gangetic Hindi heartland and the adjoining Hindi knowing areas are not yet amalgamated thoroughly and uniformly.

She has never been a country or a nation in the true sense of the terms.

In the first half of the 20th century, Winston Churchill described India as "a mere geographical expression, a land that was no more a single country than the equator." Churchill being a political animal, his description like this was imputed to political motives, not to factual and realistic judgement.

But when Lee Kuan Yew of tiny Singapore spoke of India that "India is not a real country.

Instead, it is 32 separate nations that happen to be arrayed along the British rail line" , no Indian nationalistic propagandist can churn out ulterior political motives.

Pre-Gandhian nationalist leaders, like Bal Gangadhar Tilak and Surendranath Bannerjee, were more honest to say repeatedly that "India was a nationin-the-making".

India's first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, more of a scholar than a political leader, felt that India was held together by 'strong but invisible threads' .

He conceded that 'she is a myth, and an idea, a dream and a vision, and yet real and present and pervasive' .

Even in the 1920s, the first years of the advent of Mr.Mohandas Gandhi as an accepted pan Indian leader, India was a mere myth, an idea, a dream, developed gradually in the minds of some British-educated middle-class leaders in response to British colonialism and administration.

In 1917, Rabindranath Tagore wrote, "India has never had a real sense of nationalism" .

English language, railway network and the Indian Civil Service served as the physical and human bases of a political imagination called India.

Indian nationalism is the gift of British colonialism.

After the pyrrhic victory in World War II, political, military and economic exhaustion compelled the British empire to quit all unwilling colonies, including the South Asian Sub-Continent, in friendly ways before freedom movements turned too hostile for future friendship.

They left the South Asian sub-continent in a very haphazard way giving a large elbowroom to Indian leaders for maneuver and manipulation for unrestrained expansionist designs.

The day she became independent, she turned herself into an inhuman and immoral imperialist monster, the ideology of which her leaders had fought against for decades.

The new leadership bribed, cajoled, cheated, linguistically baffled, betrayed, physically threatened almost all of the 562 princely states and annexed them with India.

The new regime, formed by avowed votaries of non-violence, unabashedly invaded and occupied 1Kashmir, Hyderabad and Junagadh.

They arm-twisted and annexed Cooch Behar, Manipur and Tripura.

They used even British officials to betray Bhopal and Travancore.

Out of frustration at the British complicity in such treachery, one top-ranking British officer even resigned.

Churchill compared the logic of the new regime of India with Hitler's dictum on the invasion and occupation of Austria.

In December 1961, the Indian Army invaded and annexed Goa.

As late as April 1975, she annexed Sikkim with the help of some fifth columnists.

Today the process of expansionism is being actively pursued with a veiled and more sophisticated methodology.

Smaller and weaker South Asian countries like Nepal, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, Maldives and Bangladesh are facing the onslaught of Indian hegemonism.

The ideology of the ruling BJP/RSS duo is more outrageous.

Their 'Akhanda Bharat' includes, in addition to the 6 South Asian countries, Afghanistan, Tibet and Myanmar.

But the very foundation of present India is structurally fragile and Armed forces are the only reliable bedrock.

This and this alone is the strong thread that held India together; other invisible threads are either unreal or simply imaginary.

India is not rational, so it cannot be real.

This reality is manifested in the dominance of regional parties in more than 10 Indian states.
