Arrests and sackings begin against cheerleaders of Pulwama attack

MyNation is continuosly bringing to the fore the anti-nationals who are hell bent on belittle sacrifices of our brave soldiers and paramilitary personnel

MyNation has been relentlessly reporting India's enemy within with pictoral evidence of how a minuscule but toxic section of society belittles the sacrifice of CRPF jawans in the aftermath of the Pulwama horror that saw at least 40 young lives snuffed out in a moment. They are born Indian; they work in India; some of them study at the most prestigious institutes including IIT Madras, but they choose to stand against the country.

But after being called out, many of them are facing the heat of the law. Many have been suspended and some have been sacked. The police have started cracking the whip by registering first information reports (FIR) against them. In some cases, the FIR results in arrests. It's payback time.

 

1. Mohammad Farman Khan

   Place: Shahjahanpur, UP

Khan, a student at Islamia Inter college in Shahajanpur, posted a Facebook post saying, "Hindustan Murdabad" twice. It infuriated the people, and a complaint to the cops followed. On Monday, the Shajahanpur police tweeted that within 48 hours of the anti-India post by Khan, he has been arrested. He has been booked under stringent Sections of the IPC including 124A, which is the law dealing with sedition.

2. Hafizur Rehman

   Place: Assam

This 19-year-old from Assam was no different. He made strong statements against India that upset also the Muslim community in Assam. It had the potential to create communal tension, given the tinderbox Assam is, particularly ever since the NRC is on its final level. Rehman, who is also known as Khan, has been arrested by Assam Police from the Mangaldai area of the state.

 

3. Ravi Prasad Maurya

   Place: Balia, UP

Ravi is from Uttar Pradesh. He claims to be a member of the Akhilesh Yadav-led Samajwadi Party (SP). In a social media highlight, Maurya said, "Hume garv hai Aadil Ahmed par jo kiya Pulwama me CRPF par attack, 14 February 2019 ko. Pulwama ke rehne wale bhai Aadil Ahmed ko mare jane par meri taraf se ashrupurn shradhanjali" (We are proud of what Aadil Ahmed did by attacking CRPF jawans on February 14, 2019. My teary homage to Aadil Ahmed who is killed). Not only is this a glorification of a terrorist — loaded with the sentiment of a 'bhai' (brother) — but also a seeking of 'pride' in the attack on the nation. Ballia Police filed a case against him under the relevant sections and arrested the man.

4. Vijay Lewa

   Place: Ahmedabad

Lewa is an educated person who studied from Ahmedabad's LM Colege, but that did not stop him from saying on Twitter, "Kahsmiriyon ko ghulam banaye rakhne ki kuch to kimat chukani hi paregi na!!!" (You have to pay a price for enslaving Kashmiris). This legitimises the cold act of terror and worse: it questions India's stated position of Kashmir — an inseparable part of India. The idea of occupation is bizarre. After a Twitter user tagged Ahmedabad Police, an FIR against Lewa followed promptly. The police have taken Lewa in custody.

 

5. Chitradeep Som

   Place: Kolkata

Som was a teacher at the prestigious Delhi Public School based in north Kolkata. He took to Facebook to write a long post where he argued why soldiers who are killed should not be called 'martyrs'. He argued, "For professional reasons, those who go to fight in exchange of salary and get killed should not be called martyrs. Calling them martyr is abusing the word martyr itself".

Som went on ranting, but the school authorities weren't impressed. Expectedly, he was sacked. Later, he came back to the social media platform to declare, "I have been sacked from my job".

This list is not exhaustive. Just on Monday, MyNation reported how an assistant professor in Assam, Papri Z Banerjee, was suspended from her college and arrested by the Assam Police for her anti-India tirades. Payback time for the nation's enemy within!
