Are we inviting an era of political anarchy in Bharat ?

Are we inviting an era of political anarchy in Bharat ? Can we afford to ignore the medieval warlord Pruthwiraj Chouhan’s lessons from the medieval history of Bharat ?

Are we really entitled to adopt a “parliamentary” democratic way of political life,  the way in which it is seen to be practiced at present. The common man in the street in Bharat and the frustrated elite class are stuck in the ivory tower, trying to find a dependable contention and solution. This is the enigma that has engulfed these. The tenure of the present 18th Lok Sabha must lead the well-wishers to ponder the Thew way after watching and taking into account the manner in which the proceedings of the Lok Sabha are transacted. Preparation for the forthcoming general election in the five federating States is seen around the corner. Political parties vying for administrative power in the State Assemblies are busy offering several manageable and unmanageable promises or otherwise luring the voters. The Constitutional monitoring authority of the general election to these State Assemblies is the Election Commission of Bharat, which is entrusted with the responsibility of conducting the programme in a systematic and phased manner.

The great electoral saga is not a new story for Bharat. To lead a political life, the manner in which one prefers to do so, is not a novelty to the Bharatiya citizenry. Liberty in the choice of the kind of political life one prefers is the characteristic of every Bharatiya. He has enjoyed this privilege since the earliest times of human civilization. The ancient history of Bharatiya boasts of several dynasties, announcing the rules of memorable reigns which have left their mark on institutions and socio-cultural welfare periods. Statutory and military governance had always been a subject matter confined to the military leaders, i.e., the Kings and royal dynasties and their succession chains. who were primarily destined for warfare. Citizens were not involved in or affected by the changes in the royal families.

An intriguing and interesting incident needs to be taken into account in the recent official visit of Prime Minister of Bharat, to Tel-Aviv, barely two days ahead, i.e. before the US led “Epique “ as well as Israel’s “Roaring Lion”—a joint venture waged on 28-2-2026 against “Islamic Shia’s Middle East base Iran. After almost a fortnight , there seems to be no end to the mini-war erupted in the Middle East . The entire bloody episode seemed to emerge as Robin Hood portraying himself as the divine saviour of the globe , the defender of global stability and self proclaimed architect of the global political economy performing as a loving “ Uncle Sam.”.

Bharat as a nation seems to suffer a serious stroke of misfortune, when the reins of authority , sanity and power in Bharat are in the hands of a person whose credibility , life style upholding the “nation-first” sacrificing attitude and an unquestionable “Pradhan Sevak” Narendra Modi , the nation has to endure the misfortune of the most unworthy and irresponsible LoP from INC in Lok Sabha, whose legislative performance and behavioral record appears dismal.

It is important to note that as at present, the world is facing a terrible, perilous period. Meaningless, unwanted and regional armed conflict involving a theocratic Republican State from the Middle Eastern region on the one hand and another Republican State from the same region, along with its international boxer- nation and the self-appointed referee friend on the other hand. The main objective of the conflict is to destroy the capability of deploying nuclear power of a sovereign country. The fear has been that the said sovereign country, despite its connection with an old human civilisation, would destroy the present-day world in order to proselytise the remaining world, denying freedom to adopt the faith of his or her choice. An unbiased liberty to choose a faith of one's choice cannot be denied to any person, society or a country.
 
The said rebellious country was warned last year, some time ago, but the warning fell on deaf ears. The referee duo had a sensible focus. Its action cannot be doubted or challenged. In fact, once the skirmishes are operationalised, the engulfed period is invariably seen as a toss-up, with changing hands becoming evident unpredictably. The world once again is seen on the threshold of a prolonged world war initially involving half a dozen desert-nations , everyone trying to destroy the air power and naval power of the other. There is a international perspective of the international state of affairs tragically enveloping armed conflict in the Middle East region . Bharat is certainly bound to be affected by the untimely fragile peace process . Bharat has to fight two adversaries simultaneously. First , Pakistan, the Bharatiya territory known to the world until 1947 as Bharat Varsha , on the Western front, and secondly , a large portion of -today’s Bangla Desh, then called East Pakistan. Several constitutionally, democratically elected and recognised “Jaychandras” and Pruthwi Raj Chouhan from within were responsible for the whole world. In the public domain .

One has to take into account the bitter fate that befell Bharat was that , at the prime moment in 1947, there was one soul who would take care of the glorious past of Bharat Varsh . Such a situation arose as the destined future of Bharat Varsh was certain to happen . The entire political leadership which existed then. History depicts a scenario that throws light on the great past of Bharat Varsh.

The arrival of the global mercantile East India Company in India around 1600 AD , marked a period of dark age. This period characterized an unfortunate sequence of equally unfortunate periods, i.e. the Mughal reigns, which had lasted for over five hundred years, i.e., between the 11th century AD and the year of freedom from the British invaders. It would not be an exaggeration to maintain that ,the contemporary history writers presumed that Bharat was merely a land mass which , in fact was a mere “free for all” for all those who could settle there any time they preferred. No Bharatiya would forget in 1947 immediately after the Britons left the Bharatiya governance , leaving the way in which the political bosses at the Center i.e., the Union Government , casually ceded or parted with the Bharatiya territory to the adversaries of Bharat, esp. to the Chinese without hesitation or keeping in mind the national interests in view. The then Indian National Congress , which was composed and led by those whose national roots by conviction were found elsewhere outside Bharat , as the descendants of Sir Thomas Macauley , was a well-designed, well-prepared, implementable plan of alienation of Bharat from enslaving the Bharatiya essence and culture .

There has been an unprecedented encounter of political imaginations on the part of the State politics . Several situations have emerged which have proved to be challenging . The national scenario of late, has undergone an interesting change. Equally complicated is the international political front. The socio-political conditions in Bharat warrant a glance at its uncertain and precarious socio-political future . It has become imperative to ponder over , seriously , the following :

Five States in Bharat , Assam, Keralam, Tamil Nadu , West Bengal and the Union Territory Puducherry were engrossed with the election to their respective State Legislative Assemblies between April 9th and April 29th, 2026. Elections are over. Election of Union and State Legislative Assemblies in Bharat is a normal, routine affair in the parliamentary history of Bharat since 1947. These elections were conducted in a peaceful manner.

Elections held in April , 2026 were expected to be normal . Importantly , it is to be noted that , it was a smooth affair.

The chain of events in the present process of the periodic State General Elections, electing the respective State Legislative Assemblies, commenced on August 9th and will be concluded on May 4th, 2026. Statutory and political activities during this period are in full swing. The most efficient and alert Chief Election Commissioner , Gyanesh Kumar , the present Chief Election Commissioner , tenure of ( Late ) T.N. Sheshan , { the then alert Chief Election Commissioner in 1990’s - the man who fearlessly saved Bharatiya democracy } seems to go down in the parliamentary history of India, as its savior yet again. During the course of these elections , he delivered a break away group of the Indian National Congress , several bold and unbiased decisions on the electoral matters in accordance with the spirit and the essence of the law of the Constitution of India . It is important to note that the Supreme Court of India stood steadfast with the E C I .

Along with the States of Bihar and West Bengal, S.I.R exercises were undertaken by the E C I in 12 other States in Bharat where their respective Legislative Assemblies were due to complete their five year tenure in near future.. Elections in the State of Bihar was held after the exercise of SIR was completed in the State .These States included some States which were governed by some other political parties. The entire exercise was peaceful .

The Union government and the E C I decided to carry out the crucial exercise of S I R to detect and expel the illegal persons and infiltrators into Bharat. It was believed that over six crores of such infiltrators had already taken shelter in Bharat , with the connivance of quite a few anti-national elements, such as individuals , political parties , fanatic religious sects, and religious groups .There were several political and ruling cliques , enjoying even power positions in government. This secret invasion had been in operation for several decades , unbridled , under the very nose of the defender authorities. If it is thoroughly researched, one would quickly realize that the genesis of the grave situation is the “ great national calamity “ i.e. the “Indian National Congress” creation –1947---statutorily approved “India Independence Bill, 1947” ( later dubbed as an Independence Act ) .

It was agreed by all those who were supporters of the idea of dividing the “helpless” Bharat Varsha and thereby the “product”,which was treated as a political abortion of the Bharatiya polity .The unfortunate gangrene inherited by the left out BharatVarsha is still suffering from the wounds that had been inflicted on it .Almost eight decades on , Bharat Varsha seems to have progressed far ahead of her erstwhile body portion, then known as Pakistan in the West and since 1971 as Bangla Desh in the East. The twin calamity of treacherous neighbours mounting continuous terrorist skirmishes, destroying international peace and thwarting the development process and the tenets of Bharatiya socio-cultural ethos.

The only singled out State of West Bengal. emerged as a rebel participant in the Federal Republic of Bharat. “Trinamul Congress”- a breakaway group of the Indian National Congress was in power since 2011 – seemed to have lost confidence in its return to power. Corruption , 15 years of misrule , nepotism, burden of debts were rampant . Several State TMC Ministers were involved in money laundering and financial misappropriation criminal cases, which have had adverse effects on the political leadership of politics.

The world, no doubt , has witnessed quite a different face of West Bengal. Following is the casual list of events which highlight the select major demands / acts / face put forth by the State, which have perplexed the E C I and the powerless W B State government as at present..
 
I ) Right from day one, the West Bengal election programme was announced the TMC kept on making demand after demand , raising objections to each and every step traversed by the E C I.

( ii ) Attitude of exhibiting arrogance in open defiance by resorting to indecent language and unbecoming behavioral patterns.

( iii ) Filing a complaint one after another complaint against the E C I in general and Gyanesh Kumar in person , about the mismanagement of the election programmes.

Iv ) Keep on drafting and posting threatening letters to the E C I

V ) Approach the W.B. High Court or the Supreme Court of India, trivial mattersm, waste judicial hours , keep the E C I engaged and waste its important time too. .

Vi ) To cap a list of trivial half a dozen applications filed in the High Court or the Supreme Court and neither of the two Courts found these applications of any worth . All the applications with regard to the Assembly Elections were dismissed.

V ) The TMC will be remembered in the political and even the Constitutional History of Bharat, a political party that has found time to appear in the Hon’le Supreme Court and plead a case in person when the State had already appointed a senior pleader to represent the State..

VI ) The standard of the communication language of several T M C party workers did not suit the high quality parliamentary decorum.

VII ) There appeared a method in madness . the question put to oneself was whether any external power was controlling and directing the actions of the players on the WB stage .

VIII ) Barring a few incidents , the voting in West Bengal was conducted on April 23rd and 29th , 2026. The turnout of voters on both these two days, was around a huge 93 per cent . Both , the incumbent ruler and the challenger confidently claim their victory. Each of them...

The following points need to be considered seriously.

A ) It has become imperative to study and analyse the genesis of the behaviour of the State of West Bengal while discharging its Constitutional obligations regarding State Assembly Elections.

B ) Study the causes of the distrust expressed by the State of Bengal towards the Constitutional Institution such as the Election Commission of India.The question is how far the behaviour of the State of Bengal was proper?

C ) Explore the facts and possibility of any federating State in Federal Bharat , receiving unlawful finance from abroad, and /or other foreign aid..

D ) Have the border States like Assam , West Bengal or Punjab been used as the training ground for the terrorist designs, guided or trained in carrying out terrorist activities ?

E ) Could Bharat contemplate the formation of a separate Union Territory carved out and composed of the sensitive districts along the international border.

F ) Uncover secret plans of forcing the non-Hindu populations from outside into Bharat thereby bringing about changes in demographic balances in it. It is learnt that approximately close to 10 crores infiltrators including Muslims have already arrived and settled unauthorizedly and with the connivance of neighbors. in Bharat,

G ) The manner in which the TMC Party workers meted out with their contemporaries and the supporting staff and the close fellow aides, is a shameless act that is evident.

H ) The past fortnight of electoral Bharat was characterised by a strange and unnatural hitherto unknown political behavior of the State of West Bengal the cultural plight of which is required to be treated as a warning to Bharat. .

I ) Is there any international conspiracy being hatched to destroy the Bharatiya Sanatan culture .
