Hi there, I have been receiving some emails about ongoing debate on environmentalism and green mafia raised by some of my friends. I got one mail form sri. Dileep raj also. Now I like to share my opinion with you all. (I don't know whether my opinions have any worthwhile) i have been discussing this issue (green mafia\ ngo type theoreticians) with my comrades and friends very long time before. I know most of the environmentalists and how they act. i think most of them, expect vereyyy few are genuine. All others are diverting people's attention from real problem to something else (some makes personal gains). I can give number of examples and know some untold stories behind Plachimada too.(will try to write that soon) Not only so called environmentalist but "theoreticians" also have some vested interests. Really they are the mentors and stooges of Brahmanical-male chauvinistic-imperialist-comprador policies. How much they use mouth exercise or eclecticism or pretend to be with people is immaterial and at the same time Useless. These so-called activist ( I mean ngo-type theoreticians) has some modus operandi. They will interfere in the movements as Geedha says stands for the struggles which will never end in success or which will never be a failure .......the ngo type of protest. I don't think they will come in struggle like NainanKonam, where there is question of land and its recapture or have direct fight with State. If they have arrived, we should be skeptical. They will hijack the all struggle in to there on way. If you look at Plachimada it will clear. The plachidamada issue had a wider scope and could be lead to a great struggle. But it has been hijacked by these ngo type theoreticians. The first way of hijacking any kind of struggle is proclaim some one as Patrons of the struggle, like Heroine of Palchimada. Whenever they leads never that struggle goes beyond the scope of a protest to a mass movement. If smt.Sugathakumari arrives as a vanguard, they will make her as the Great woman of Athirappilly and will later hijacked the struggle their on way and never allow moving it as mass movement. (Movements....lol.!!!!) We cannot question the right of smt. Sughatakumari to arrive there or to participate in the movement. I think no one will question it. But we don't want to be her PROs. I have some reservation with smt. Sugathakumari based on some proofs, but not have any personal enmity.(Geedha clearly said some about that ) Sri. Dileep raj says: To tell my experiences in issue based alliances in Kerala... I have been actively involved in P.E.Usha's resistance in Calicut university. Dr. P.K.Pokker was the chairman of the counter movement waged by orthodox left . I have written several articles in malayalam media in which I quoted his anti women standpoints and tried to refute/ expose them. Recently, we came together in couple of occasions as part of anti- death penalty campaign. We find very few people who openly speak for prisoners as a section. So every voice counts. Then he says. That means we are destined to ally with different forces in different Issues. There are no permanent enemies or permanent allies anymore. That is one reason why we are not part of any one organization. I was speaking from within the dynamics if this issue based alliances. Dear sri. Dileep raj, no. we have permanent enemies. Some time u does not have. But people have. Let me clear it with Chinese example (just for the sake of the debate). At the time of Jap invasion communist stopped direct attack to kumantings.But there was conflict and contradiction with kumanthings. After Japans failure the fight against them restarted. I think this is the real example of issue-based alliance. Now back to PE usha case, if it was a mere issue of PE usha we could have think on Dileepraj's way (!!!!), but it was never a personal issue, it related with the all women, their dignity, their right of equality and more over it with their emancipation. We will delete the names of enemies only after they have defeated completely. (I know there is a light line between the culprits and the supporters of that crime). If Kunjhalikkutty or some hated person arrives in a struggle we cannot say " you don't come' But don't think we are finishing off the struggle against him\her. We only support the cause, not the man. There will remain conflict and contradiction. Sometime we will soften our fight against him for the sake of struggle. But never we support him. If we say we have no permanent enemies we will surely fall in trouble. For deciding the enemy, we have some scales. It is by analyzing the class\caste\gender position and with the history of a person\section. (Never have I equated Kunjhalikkutty with Smt. Sugatha kumari. I know former is a criminal. But smt.Sugatha never. Even if Smt.sugatha has some problem, she preaches love and compassion. That is great itself. i like her poems too ) not Ranjit who started using the 'hate language,' but still uncensored 'heroes' who used expressions like 'go to hell' to Ranjit's provocative way of putting questions" About the "hate language": i don't believe in sophisticated language. Never society too. History shows like. Who is the master of language? If ranjith or other has internal temper or anger he\she can use their own language. Use the same tone which our minds talks to us. The voices from the people cause should be in loud and to be heard. more over it to be aggressive. And about moderators and green youth: really I donot know much about that. But I think moderators must be democratic and openhearted. If any moderator is not act as good, expose them and do think about other opportunities and forum for discussing\fighting. That's good. Now to ranjith and smt. Geedha please accept my hearty salute for exposing the 'ngo type theoreticians' and "patrons'. and for making protest. However we want to bring these discussions in our own Malayalam. As a media person, i too know that media will not let us enough space for these voices. Even though we want to try to offer some good blow from the public to this cos. Otherwise they will continue to rule with their reactionary ideologies. I will also try to expose them by my own way soon. thanks for reading love you bijuraj ________________________________ Need a vacation? Get great deals to amazing places on Yahoo!
