The Unnao rape survivor is critical andchances of her survival are less, doctors saidon Friday, a day after she was set ablaze byfour men accused of raping her.

"Her present condition is very critical.However, some vitals are functioning fine.But sometimes it deteriorates," said Dr SunilGupta, Medical Superintendent (MS) of Saf-darjung Hospital.

"As she has suffered more than 90 per-cent of extensive burn injuries, chances ofher survival are less. Our Head of Depart-ment of Burn and Plastic Department DrShalab Kumar is closely monitoring thecase," he added.

The 23-year-old was airlifted from Luc-know's SMC government hospital to nation-al capital's Safdarjung Hospital last night.

The woman had filed a rape case inMarch this year, which is under trial at a lo-cal court in Unnao. According to the police,five men identified as Shubham, Shivam,Harishankar, Umesh and Ram Kishore, hadallegedly thrown kerosene on the womanand set her ablaze when she was on her wayto the court for a hearing in the rape case.

SWAMI TEJOMAYANANDA

Found in the Mahabharata,the Bhaga-vad Gita is themost well-known and

renowned portion of this great

epic. Even though, it wastaught to Arjuna thou-sands of years ago, theGita continues to retainits popularity and appeal— especially in today’sfast-paced, nerve-rack-ing and challengingworld. Why is this so?

The Bhagavad Gitais considered to be theessence of all the Upan-ishads.

The background,setting and atmosphereof the Upanishads werevery different. Therein,we find the wise rishis,sitting in the calm andserene surroundings of

their ashram or on the banks ofa river, far away from the dinand roar of the marketplace.The truth was expounded toevolved disciples — intelli-

gent men and women who hadexamined and understood thelimitations ofworldly life.

In contrast,Arjuna was aperson of theworld. He wasan ambitious,noble and hero-ic man of action. He had un-dergone numerous trials andtribulations; abundant experi-ences, good and bad.

How-ever, when confront-ed with the prospect of fight-ing his own kin, he was over-whelmed. This is the plight ofmost of us today — we be-come incapacitated whenfaced with unpleasant dutiesor insurmountable problems;we do not know right fromwrong; we do not know howto act.

YUGMARG, CHANDIGARH, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 7, 2019

When the government first brought the CitizenshipAmendment Bill (CAB) to Parliament in January thisyear, it was unconstitutional through and through

since it sought to confer Indian citizenship in a discriminatorymanner based on religion, as though India is a theocratic state.

The revised measure cleared by the Union Cabinet onWednesday — and expected to be introduced in Parliament onMonday — is no different from the original bill in its funda-mentals, and suffers from exactly the same frailty. So, in whatway is this bill a revised venture? The answer lies in dubiouspolitics, which also has the effect of undercutting the Constitu-tion. The strongest voice against the January bill came from theNortheast —where the BJP has muscled its way into govern-ments in several capitals since coming to power at the Centrein 2014 — and civil society in those states. So the bill in its newavatar says illegal Hindu immigrants will not be permitted tosettle in most of the Northeast (as this will hurt the BJP’s po-litical prospects there).

Thus, when illegal immigrants become citizens under thenew law, they will not be free to reside where they like as oth-er citizens. This is plainly discriminatory.

The new law is meant to give refuge to non-Muslims sup-posedly running away from religious persecution in Pakistan,Afghanistan and Bangladesh. The government has offered nodata on the numbers involved. Indeed, besides weak anecdotalevidence, the whole construct seems a hoax.

Hindus, Sikhs, Christians, Parsis, Jains and Buddhists arenot clamouring for entry into India. From Afghanistan, the fig-ure is likely to be nil. From Pakistan, close to nil. Indeed, thosefacing discrimination there are mainly Islamic sects, like Ah-madiyas and Shias.

Essentially, then, the whole thing will centre onBangladesh, which borders India’s Northeast and West Bengal,and the rest is a smokescreen. If illegal Bangladeshi immi-grants, if any, are denied entry to the Northeast as envisionedin the bill to be tabled, they are most likely to flock to WestBengal, Odisha and Bihar, given the geography.

Besides creating religion-based citizenship, and question-ing democracy’s inviolable principle of equality before the law,the supposedly revised CAB also violates the 1985 Assam Ac-cord. Under this law, those found to have entered India fromBangladesh after March 24, 1971 are aliens, while the CABpermits illegal Hindus to become Indian citizens if they cameby December 31, 2014 — a completely arbitrary date.

In keeping with BJP-RSS’s political theology, if there is noCAB, there can be no compilation of a National Register of Cit-izens (NRC). The CAB is meant to give legal cover to illegalHindus in Assam. The recent disastrous exercise of compilingthe NRC for Assam showed there were more Hindu illegalsthan Muslims. The state BJP rejected the exercise.

EditorialDubious politics behindrush to enact new CAB

The glory of the Bhagavad Gita If one hails from the sub-continent, it is hard neverto have heard the throbbing

beat of ‘dama dam mast qalan-dar’ — a Sufi anthem whosefollowing has transcended ge-ographical boundaries thanksto the popularity of fusion mu-sic and technological advance-ment. Hundreds of singershave rendered it in genresranging from qawwali to filmsongs. It is believed to havebeen originally written byAmir Khusro in the 13th cen-tury and then added to byBulleh Shah in the 17th centu-ry.

Recently, it was claimedon a TV show that Saghar Sid-diqui penned the famous song.Now Saghar was a tremen-dous poet who went uncele-brated and totally ignored. Hedeserves appreciation and ac-knowledgement without anydoubt. However, he was toobig a poet to be laden withsomeone else’s creation. Prob-ably what caused this confu-sion is that he may have writ-ten the lyrics for one of the twomovies featuring this song in1956 and 1969. In the latteryear, it was sung by MadamNoor Jehan who truly immor-talised it.

It happens many a timethat folklore is adapted forcontemporary usage and mi-nor tweaks make it more ac-cessible and attractive for au-diences. To that extent,Saghar, or anyone else for thatmatter, would deserve acco-lades as it is no mean feat tomake a change, no matter howminor, in an already phenome-nally popular work of art with-out taking something away

from the beauty of the origi-nal. It is important to differen-tiate between dhamal, the tuneand the lyrics of the song set toit. Since this region has been amelting pot, in all likelihoodthe tune predates the song asdhamal, a stomping beat, is ac-companied by an ecstaticwhirling and stamping that hascome to be associated with aparticular type of dance per-formed in a trance-like state atSufi shrines. Its appeal is sowidespread that both dhamaland the song’s refrain “damadam mast qalandar” have en-tered the sociopolitical lexiconto connote meanings far fromits original intent. Among itsmyriad usages, “dhamal” isused to signify “intense” and“dama dam” to warn “the endis nigh”.

It was Zulfikar Ali Bhuttowho first used the term “damadam mast qalandar” in 1973 topredict the political turmoilahead. Subsequently, the late

Pir Pagaro used it to relay hismaster’s voice to the electedgovernments that their dayswere numbered.

It is also attributed to ZABthat right before the orders forhis judicial murder were to bepronounced by the presidingjudge, he murmured “Qalan-dar pat rakh jaan” (O Qalan-dar, help save my honour).This attribution is weak ontwo counts. One, it has notbeen corroborated sufficiently,and two, ZAB most likely wasnot so conversant with Sindhito have used “pat” for honour.While tracing the genesis andevolution of the anthem, itshould be kept in view thatJhuley Lal is a different saintfrom Lal Shahbaz Qalandar.His real name was Udero Lalwhile the latter was named Us-man Marwandi. Udero was aHindu saint and his mau-soleum complex in TandoAdam, district Sanghar inSindh, has a unique distinction

of being administered jointlyby the Muslim and Hinducommunity. The references to“jhula” (cradle) as in “jhuleylal” or “jhuley lalan” are re-minders of the legend of Ud-ero Lal and how as an infanthe is believed to have per-formed miracles from his jhu-la. There is nothing wrong incombining reverence for twoor multiple mystics whospread the message of loveand peace. Like Shahbaz Qa-landar, Udero Lal enjoys ahuge following among peoplefrom various faiths, but veryfew people realise that the ref-erences to “jhuley lal” in folkmusic may actually pertain tohim, and the song as we knowit today may be an amalgam ofdevotion to various mystics, adefinite case of “the more themerrier”. As a noun, “dhamal”means a loud melody that isnot just heard, but felt underthe feet — of earthshaking va-riety, you may say. It is used as

an adjective, especially in In-dia to signify something veryexciting, very intense, eg “thematch had a dhamal ending”.The spontaneous dance thatPakistanis all over the countrybreak into when surprised bysomething good coming theirway is what we are referring tohere — yes, those index fin-gers in the air, shoulders raisedwhirl is dhamal! Given the ris-ing political temperature andthe excitement it causesamong those vying for power,it seems we are poised for arather extended dama damseason as the next generalelections are not due before2023. Incidentally, the econo-my too can be explained with-in the ambit of this piecethrough a proverb that reflectsour predicament so perfectlythat it cries out to be shared:“pai na paisa paley; dhamalpendi challey” (not even acoin in the pocket, but the gaitis earthshaking).

The myriad interpretations of Sufi anthem ‘Mast Qalandar’

Embracing conservation agricultureto enhance farmer’s financial health

Climate change has posedthe biggest challenge sofar to Agricultural pro-

ductivity. It has led to droughtlike conditions in some parts ofthe country and heavy, erraticrainfall in other regions.

The severity and unpre-dictability of weather haswreaked havoc on crop pro-ductivity, especially in rain-fedregions of our country. Manyfarmers have shifted to shortduration crops that can with-stand harsher conditions, in-stead of cultivating staplegrains as before. The low pro-ductivity and shifts in the culti-vated crops are posing a chal-lenge for food security for ourgrowing population. Thefarmer is also battling increas-

ing production cost, scarcity offarm labour, declining or stag-nating yield and farm income.The vulnerability of farm prof-itability is pushing farmers to-wards desperate and recklessuse of chemicals to managecrops and enhance yields, mak-ing them a target for unscrupu-lous suppliers. The increaseduse of fossil fuels, polluted soiland water resources and loss of

biodiversity are additional en-vironmental concerns. Rice isthe staple food of more than60% of the world’s populationespecially in South East Asia.Among the rice growing coun-tries in the world, India has thelargest area under rice crop i.e.,43.86 million hectare (Mha)and ranks second in production(163.5 MT) next to China (203MT). India’s average rice pro-ductivity is below world aver-age of 4 MT/ha and much low-er as compared to China’s 6.5MT/ha.

Therefore, India is contribut-ing 1.4 times more land area forproducing 1.2 times less rice ascompared to China, this is avery harmful statistic for ourgrowing economy.

The Bhagavad Gita is considered tobe the essence of all the Upanishads

The moment Pakistan’sSupreme Court tookcognisance of the proce-

dural lapses in the extensionorder for Gen. Qamar Bajwa’scontinuation as Army Chief, itwas obvious that a crisis wasin the making. Now grantinghim a six-month reprieve tohim and to Imran Khan’s gov-ernment, with the caveat thatproper legislation must bepassed in this period on thetenure of service chiefs, hasnot resolved the issue. In fact,the grounds for more turbu-lence within Pakistan’s polityand military have been laid.Work on a new law has re-portedly already begun, butthere are competing forces atplay which may not make thetransition through the next sixmonths easy.

First is the attempted per-petuation of status quo. PrimeMinister Imran Khan has acomfort level with Gen. Ba-jwa, and after all without hislargesse the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) would perhapsnever have seen the light ofday as far as political power isconcerned. Whether its writ issupported by others in thePakistan Army is not clear.What was being assumed as awell-knit, professional higherleadership promoting Pak-istan’s interests has actuallyproven to be a self-serving setof senior officers. Gen. Bajwawould have done himself andImran Khan some good if herecalled the events of 1969,that led to the ouster of formerPresident Ayub Khan. It wasnone other than Yahya Khan,the man bolstered by Ayub,who ultimately forced him toabdicate. In the face of poten-tial power coming their way,

the Pakistan Army’s generalshave displayed little loyalty,best exemplified by the re-ported spat at the corps com-manders, where the chief wasapparently hounded. Why wasthis so? Gen. Bajwa is of the1980 batch and followed Gen.Raheel Sharif (1976 batch) aschief, who in turn followedGen. Ashfaq Kayani (1970batch). Gen. Kayani also got athree-year extension and upsetthe chances of the 1973-75batches to throw up a chieffrom among them. Gen.Sharif went without an exten-sion, allowing the 1980 batchto throw up Gen. Bajwa.

Now if Gen. Bajwa’stenure is extended by threeyears, the next batch to have achief would be 1986 or be-yond, effectively ruling outthe 1983-85 batches, whichhave about 15-16 lieutenant-generals in contention. It isfrom among these that sevenlieutenant-generals are report-ed to have joined hands withChief Justice Asif Khosa to set

up the three tense days inwhich the Supreme Courttook suo moto cognisance of awithdrawn petition againstGen. Bajwa’s extension.

The three-judge bench,besides pointing to glitches inthe government’s proceduralaspects, also made observa-tions about the nature of thesituation which the govern-ment said dictated the need foran extension of not one or twobut three full years, equal tothe original tenure. The latteris what probably upset thecorps commanders no end.What is likely to be the out-come? Sheikh Rashid, themaverick railway minister,has publicly declared thatGen. Bajwa will get his fullthree years as originallysought by the government. MrRashid is an astute politician.He knows that both the Pak-istan Army and the govern-ment can ill afford to allow thejudiciary to take such a standand have it implemented; itwill set a wrong precedent and

further embolden the judiciaryinto creating a 2007-type situ-ation in which a major tussletook place between Chief Jus-tice Iftikhar Chaudhry andGen. Parvez Musharraf, thenPakistan’s President.

The court order asked theImran Khan government toguarantee that a constitutionalamendment would be fi-nalised and approved in Par-liament in the next sixmonths, adding importantpoints including specificationof the tenure of appointmentand extension of the ArmyChief, retirement of a four-stargeneral and clarity over thepension and privileges anArmy hief and a four-star gen-eral would get. The court or-der clearly said: “Gen. Bajwaas COAS shall be subject tothe said legislation and shallcontinue for a period of sixmonths from November 28,whereafter the new legislationshall determine his tenure andother terms and conditions ofservice”.

The Supreme Courtwould of course be aware thatthe legislature can approverules by which the ArmyChief could be given exten-sions upto or more than threeyears. Mr Rashid’s claim wasthat the PML(N)’s support hasalready been secured. Thepossibility of political lobby-ing by senior generals and asplit wide open at the highestlevels of the Pakistan Armymay not be ruled out.

The intent will be to keepthe legislative power of exten-sion for service chiefs to amaximum of six months.While Gen. Bajwa himselfmay not have wished to havea long extension, as has beenreported, it is the survival ofthe Imran Khan governmentwhich is at stake. WithMaulana Fazlur Rehman hav-ing laid the foundations ofdestabilisation of the ImranKhan government, and thePML(N) and PPP also havingagreed to give support to thecleric, Imran Khan’s position

is weak and entirely dependson the Army. However, withthe political environment sovitiated, and the Army itselfdivided, Pakistan could beheading for a period of sus-pension of the legislature anddirect rule by the Army. Thatagain would have been theeasiest option if things wereall right on the economic andinternational front and Pak-istan was not under intensepressure from the IMF and ahost of other lenders.

It is not going to be aneasy six months in Pakistanunless the government de-cides to act quickly and com-plete the formalities in an ear-lier timeframe. The proverbialpound of flesh will be extract-ed by the Opposition and thatperhaps may end in partialmarginalisation of Gen. Ba-jwa’s powers. With only limit-ed support from the seniorranks and rampant mistrust,his weakening position wouldalso affect the fortunes of theImran Khan’s government.The Opposition might be sali-vating at the thought of freshelections, but given the stateof the economy and likely lessthan three per cent GDPgrowth, exercises like elec-tions would be considered aluxury.

Internal turbulence andsubterfuge within Pakistandoes not necessarily lead toinstability at the borders, butIndia will need to be doublycareful as many of the actionswould be unpredictable and infact verge on being irrational.It could also throw Pakistanipolitics to the wolves; the irra-tional radicalised elementstemporarily ruling the roostonce again on the streets.

How Bajwa affair may impact politics in PakistanThe three-judge bench,besides pointing to glitches inthe government’s proceduralaspects, also madeobservations about the natureof the situation which thegovernment said dictated theneed for an extension of notone or two but three full years,equal to the original tenure.

It is also attributed to ZABthat right before theorders for his judicialmurder were to bepronounced by thepresiding judge, hemurmured “Qalandar patrakh jaan” (O Qalandar,help save my honour).This attribution is weakon two counts. One, it hasnot been corroboratedsufficiently, and two, ZABmost likely was not soconversant with Sindhi tohave used “pat” forhonour.

Story of Oudh’s begum & prince comes to life

It took Pulitzer Prize win-ner Ellen Barry of theNew York Times to put at

rest last week the 40-year-old mystery of “BegumWilayat Mahal” of Oudh,her children, “Princess” Sak-ina and “Prince” Ali Reza,alias, Cyrus. The hauntingvisitation began in the early1970s at the New Delhi rail-

way station and ended in thethickly forested Malcha Ma-hal four decades later. It wasa story of bleak, dark pathos,not quite the stuff of hightragedy.

As early as 1975, AnjumQadar, whose descent fromthe Oudh “royals” is estab-lished, had rubbished Wilay-at Mahal’s claims. The self-

proclaimed “royals” wouldnot speak to Indian journal-ists — “only to foreigners”.All of this blocked light onthe cardinal question: Whowere these fakes? Indeed,why was this fake beingplayed out? It took EllenBarry’s dogged determina-tion to help tie up loose endsof the story.
