Galwan Valley Conflict Between India And China Exposed People Who Are Lovers Of China, As They Openly Support The Enemy Country : Justice Kirubakaran, Madras Highcourt

“Fringe Elements Wearing Masks Of NGOs, Human Rights Organisations And Political Groups Creating Unrest”: Justice Kirubakaran Of Madras HC

A plea for bail by a member of the banned “Tamil Nadu Liberation Army” recently prompted Justice N Kirubakaran of the Madras High Court to express strong opinions against linguistic chauvinism being used to create unrest in India (Kalailingam v. State).

In an order passed on Friday, the Judge took critical note of the creation of conflicts and separatism by some using differences in religion, race and language. He said,

“When these elements take ‘Tamil Culture’, ‘Tamil Race’ and ‘Tamil Language’ as weapons for their sinister plans, the Governments should be careful enough to see that no action of the Government would pave way for or strengthen the propaganda made by these elements especially, with regard to emotive language issue. Already political parties are waiting to make use of such position to arouse linguistic chauvinism to harvest political dividends… There should not be any room for linguistic chauvinists to create any unrest in the name of languages in any part of our country.”

Justice N Kirubakaran

While hearing the Bail plea of an alleged member of the banned organization called “Tamil Nadu Liberation Army”, Justice N. Kirubakaran of the Madras High Court on Friday (18th September) offered some intense observations against “fundamentalists” and “extremists” acting “against the very integrity of our nation and public welfare.”

“This kind of fringe elements are stated to be more active in Tamil Nadu and wearing the masks of NGOs, Human Rights Organisations and political groups are trying to create unrest in Tamil Nadu by way of continuous propaganda through media especially social media instigating the people to protest, creating fear psychosis and spreading hatred among the masses. However, it is to be noted that many of the NGOs and Human Rights Organizations are really doing yeomen service to the people.

Justice Kirubakaran further said,

“When these elements take “Tamil Culture”, “Tamil Race” and “Tamil Language” as weapons for their sinister plans, the Governments should be careful enough to see that no action of the Government would pave way for or strengthen the propaganda made by these elements especially, with regard to emotive language issues. Already political parties are waiting to make use of such positions to arouse linguistic chauvinism to harvest political dividends.”

“Violence, Destruction, Militancy, Assassinations, chaos, anarchy, mutiny, riots, Creation of conflicts based on religion, race and language, Secession, Separatism are synonymous with anti-national and separatist movements which are active in India to disintegrate our country by soft and violent militancy“

He went ahead and even compared such “anti-national movements” with other violent movements namely, ‘Khalistan Movement’, ‘National Liberation Front of Tripura’, ‘Nagaland Liberation’, ‘United Liberation Front of Assam, (ULFA)’ and ‘People Liberation Army of Manipur’.

Without placing any caveat, he even said that “our country is facing more danger in the hands of elements within the country rather than enemy countries. Therefore, the Government, as well as the people, should be very cautious about those elements.”

Further, he remarked,

“They always support separatists, secessionists forces and those who celebrate our enemy countries and criminals in the name of violation of human rights. Sometimes, these groups themselves make anti-national comments making use of “Right to Expression” and “Freedom of Expression“.

He said, “The recent Galwan Valley conflict between India and a neighbouring country exposed people who are lovers of the neighbouring nation, as they openly support the enemy country. The shocking fact is that many such elements cropped up in the media to spread distorted news and exaggerate minor incidents.”

“They are not giving straight forward NEWS and only disseminate their VIEWS with the name of NEWS to mislead people. These elements are a threat to our nation. The fundamentalists and extremists which are a threat to national integrity and unity have to be nipped in the bud as the propaganda and their acts go against the very integrity of our nation and public welfare.”

Our country is a multiracial, multicultural, multilingual and multi religious nation : Justice Kirubakaran

Further, he stressed,

“Our country is a multiracial, multicultural, multilingual and multireligious nation. Peace and Harmony have to be maintained. For that, Governments should make every citizen feel that his language, culture, religion, race are preserved and protected and not interfered with or suppressed by any action of the Governments. Even an apprehension should not be created in the minds of the people which would be certainly counterproductive“
