Hindu Website Ban Backfires

[Guest guest]

Really an eye-opener, isn't it? Many Kudos to the brave young lady from England Hema Shah, whose courage and passion for Truth must earn her the epithet of Bhavani or Jhansi Ki Rani. Please circulate this msg widely in your own circles so we may soon see more such Bhavanis emerge to create a groundswell of revolt against our coward and hypocrite politicians, media barons and academics.

"Vijay Ashar" <bhakta711 > On July 18th, the Indian Government banned www.hinduhumanrights.org along

with a few other websites. Ostensibly, the reason to block access to

Hinduhumanrights.org was that it could cause religious disharmony and civil

disturbances in India. The real reason may be the websites differences of

opinion with some Indian academics in UK with close links to the current

Indian Government.

 

The ban has actually backfired. The Indian State does not have the

resources to implement such a ban which is practically impossible on the

internet. Thousand of more people logged in to the website to see what the

fuss was all about, giving Hinduhumanrights a big boost. Natural justice

processes were not followed – one morning the people running the website

woke up to hear it had been banned. Techgoss checked out the website for

the first time yesterday and found that except for a few graphic photos ,

there was nothing which could justify a blanket ban by a liberal democracy

like India which takes great pride in respecting all opinions. Like it or

not, some of the causes taken up by this organization have been quite

popular with the general Hindu population in Europe and USA.

 

Hinduhumanrights.org spokesperson Hema Shah, 23, is a Physics graduate

from London who joined the organization 3 years ago. She is a fan of Bruce

Lee and had trained in martial arts. Her other sporting pastimes are

swimming and tennis. An avid reader, Hema lists her work with the Hindu

Human Rights group in raising human rights abuses of Hindus or the way

Hinduism is wrongly perceived in the world as the most satisfying

achievement in her young life.

-----------------------

 

Q. How did you hear the news that the Indian Government had banned you ? Did

the Government contact you ? Or did one of your readers tell you ?

 

A (Hema Shah). We read it from news articles on that day and also many

people emailed us about it. The Government never informed us.

-----------------------

Q. How effective is the ban ? Are Indians in India still reading your

website ? Is yes, how ?

 

A. It is not effective at all as it's increased our readership from around

the world even more and the traffic from India has increased.

-----------------------

 

Q. Has the Indian government tried other ways to harass your website ?

 

A. Not far as we know ..

 

-----------------------

 

Q. Have the hits on your website increased since the government banned you ?

Is it counter productive to ban websites ?

 

A. The web hits increased at least 140 thousand in one week. Yep, it is

counter productive especially if you're banned over something the government

has accused of which is not true. We've had many emails asking us to tell us

exactly what's on our site that the Indian Government banned us for because

they can't find anything that's a threat to India's security. And we'll be

offering a cash prize soon to anyone who can show us anything that is so

provocative that it can cause a civil war in India

 

-----------------------

 

Q. Do you feel that you may be arrested if you travel to India ?

 

A. Well it could happen but I think they would be better off spending their

time arresting terrorists instead of innocent people.

 

-----------------------

 

Q. How big is your organization ? How much donation do you receive?

 

A. Our organisation is very big and well known and we've had publicity many

times around the world for other campaigns in the past which you can check

in google. We're mainly self funded.

 

-----------------------

 

Q. Who are your high profile supporters ?

 

A. Well most of our supporters are ordinary people and after the ban we're

getting even more support.

 

-----------------------

 

Q. Do you think one particular Indian politician/bureaucrat is behind this

banning of website ?

 

A. Well it could be because recently we did have campaign which ended up

with some Indian academics from the UK coming out against us and making

false allegations. When we then challenged them over to an open public

debate which they haven't had the decency to come to as yet. And suddenly we

end up with this ban. And these academics do have strong links with the

present Indian government. These academics are from universities like

Oxford and Goldsmiths. They are mostly Indian from Marxist backgrounds. So

that could be the link especially when they haven't banned the hundreds of

anti Indian/Hindu websites including Hezbollah sites.

 

-----------------------

 

Q. Finally, do you think you get your message across by such graphic

pictures/articles on your website ? Many people find them quite extreme.

Many people have voted for the Indian Government in a show of faith for

secular India.

A. Well we are a human rights group and like other human rights groups we

have to provide the evidence to the world of the atrocities on Hindus and

graphic pictures being one of them. And the message is definitely getting

through to the public as by the reaction we get. And we can't see what's

that go to do with being extreme in which way because we've never had any

complaints apart from people being shocked that no one is taking these issue

serious even though now that's changing. And if people have voted for

secular government then the people should ask what type of secular

government have they voted in because even the Nazi Government in Germany

was secular just like the communist regime in Russia in the past and present

one in China. Even Saddam Hussains regime was secular but one thing that all

had in common apart from having no opposition( and we know what happened to

them) was to suppress and gag any voice which could be a threat to their

regimes even though I can't see how our website falls in that category. But

still with the present Indian government you can never know as it does have

many communists in their establishment.
