Hindu Kasab V/S Muslim Kasab

Kasab is currently being charged with 86 crimes.But most serious of those is the killing of innocent people.He came armed and opened fire indiscriminately on people for killing them.But all said and done he is a terrorist and an anti national.His acts are the results of communal hatred and unethical politics by pakistan.

But India has a Hindu Kasab.His actions/crimes are same as that of Kasab.His actions were the result of hatred as well.And his actions date back 12 years.It took 12 yrs for the court to convict him.I wonder with a Muslim Kasab will it take 12 yrs?

Lets go back in time.Date is 11 June 1997.An old lady who ritually paid respect to the Ambedkar statue in the Ramabai Ambedkar slum colony comes at around 8:00 am as usual to the statue.There she is shocked to find that the statue of the Man who is (deservedly) god to her has been garlanded with slippers.She is infuriated and raises a commotion in the colony.All the people come there and see the sight and get infuriated.They are all furious.But some good sense prevail in them and instead of getting violent or destroying any public property they call up the local corporator.He sensing the public mood appeal them to keep their cool and immediately calls up the Mayor.A simple solution which is agreeable to every one is reached.It is decided that the Mayor will come up to the slums himself and remove the slipper garland and put a flower garland.People get pacified a bit there and go and wait for the Mayor.But after this promise the mayor fails to turn up.In the mean while the sight of such an insult of the great personality who is actually their god start getting on the peoples nerve.Yet they dont get violent.By 11:00 AM the mayor has still not turned up nor has left any message for the residents either.Finally their patience give up and this people still peaceful stage a "Rasta Roko" outside their slum.

Some how this news reaches the police station.Castist Inspector Manohar Kadam with his SRPF jawans comes to the scene.Without any warning within 10 mins of his arrival he orders his jawans to open fire on the peaceful unarmed protesters.A normal process for controlling a crowd is first warning on the microphone then Lathi Charge, then tear gas then firing in the air and even after that if the crowd is still violent then FIRING at their legs.

But this bastard doesnt do any of the available options.He straight way order killing of the innocent people.11 people lost their life including a 10 yr old kid who was watching the proceedings from his house balcony.If this is not hatred for the dalits then what is it?People who are given the charge of protecting the citizens life can not just kill them at their whim.

What follows up is this bastard framing charges that the crowd was getting violent and was trying to burn public property and some oil tanker crap.There was a tanker which was about 1.5 Kms from the site of the incident.Using his powers he tried to prove that the firing was done near the tanker and the killings happened there.

But the tanker was not working and no amount of his lies could justify his crap.If he was firing at the people who were trying to set the tanker ablaze then how could that police be so sure that his bullets wouldnt hit the tanker and set it ablaze?After all 50 rounds were fired.And if the police were in between the protestors and the people that means the people couldnt set the tanker on fire without crossing the police.

When he saw after some days that his arguments couldnt hold grounds he changed the statement to self defense.But not a single arm or ammunition was found on the protesters.They were totally unarmed people.And yet he put up a counter case on the civilians.....

Govt tried its best to protect this officer but there were few people from Ramabai Ambedkar nagar who refused to give up and hence this case after 12 long years saw a bit of justice.Manohar Kadam is sentenced to life imprisonment(Not a death sentence)

If one compares him with kasab we find that the actions and the intentions were the same.Both fired indiscriminately at unarmed people.Action of both were the result of hatred towards a particular group with the intentions of killing them.But if we take a look at what happened with Manohar Kadam is this:

1.Fast track court in which Manohar Kadam was tried gave its verdict really fast...after 12 years!

2.For 12 yrs Manohar Kadam was granted bail.

3.Manohar Kadam in the capacity of SRPF officer files a case against the witness and even against the dead!

Will kasab have the same options?
Can anyone imagine 12 yrs to convict Kasab?Can even in your wildest dreams think of Kasab getting bail?Will Kasab be able to file a counter case against anyone?

Between 1997 and now 2009 both the leading parties BJP and Congress had their share of rule...nither felt the need to expidiate the process.Even after 12 yrs only the lowest court has given the verdict, the option of higher courts is still open for Kadam.Justice delayed is justice denied....but that obviously doesnt count when dalits are in question.Bal Thackrey tells to the media...why waste courts time and money in giving a trial to Kasab...but he has not even bothered to utter a single word against Kadam...doesnt he feel that a crime commited in broad day light under full public view shouldnt be given trial as well?

Hindutva parties are after the blood of Kasab...not a single one demanding hanging of Kadam.

When it comes to reservations these very parties say that dalits are hindus and reservations is creating a rift in the society.But when they are butchered these very (self proclaimed) protectors of hindus are strangely mum....why?

I am not advocating that Kasab should be given any of the priviledges (like bail) given to Kadam...I am asking why was Kadam given it???

Why ?Why?? Why???
