O Hindus, unite and oust the so-called ‘Communal Violence Bill’ which has been drafted to appease the monorities for their votebank and suppress Hindus. If this draconian bill is passed, then Hindus will have very bleak future. Also this bill is nothing but the threat to secular fabric of the nation. Hence Hindus should protest whole heartedly and lawfully against ‘Communal Violence Bill’ !
Mumbai: Members of the National Advisory Council (NAC) today demanded tabling of the Prevention of Communal and Targeted Violence bill in the winter session of parliament. NAC members Farah Naqvi and Harsh Mander told a meeting today that, "If the UPA is sincere, they should do it now. Today the ball is firmly in their (government) court.".
The Prevention of Communal and Targeted Violence( Access to Justice and Reparations) Bill 2001, better known as communal violence bill, has been submitted by NAC to the government which has yet not acted on it in the wake of opposition to the draft provisions by political parties like the BJP. The draft law intends to prevent and control targeted violence against the scheduled castes, the scheduled tribes and religious and linguistic minorities.
Harsh Mander said that not only the leadership but the executive too has failed to give equal justice under the existing law to minorities and it is necessary to pass the new law. He said that as long as the accused are Muslims, flimsy allegations are enough to keep them in jail but when the accused is a Hindu, then you need highest standard of investigation and proof. Former High Court judge Hospet Suresh questioning the delay over tabling of the bill asked "should we to go on fast like Anna Hazare and demanded that the government should table the bill in the parliament. "We are still debating this when it should have been passed (in the parliament ) by now", he said.
