".. Thanks to Babri Mosque demolition and subsequent fall out in
Gujarat holocaust of 2002, this enabled capitalism to reestablish its
firm authority by openly accepting fetishism of ‘casteless and
classless Hindutwa State as its own on the grave yards of the
oppressed, exploited and the dead??? The failure of ‘sexual
repression' and ‘Gandhian ascetics' is back in full circle A New
Fascist ascetics of re-directing the psycho sexual energies for
demolition of the hated enemy and for demolition of organized powers
of working class is born. The mighty event of Babri Demolition and
Gujarat holocaust are manifestation of crowning strength of forces of
despair of 1980's.
In the ruins of Babri mosque, Gandhian psycho-sexual repression
for decades paid for itself in same coins. Venomous propaganda aimed
at overthrowing the yoke of sexual repression gave full throated
expression to sexual aggression during Gujarat holocaust. Ashgar Ali
quotes in ‘Counter Currents'. “According to Rhonda, sexual violence
played a fundamental role and was used 'as an engine of the
mobilization of hatred and destruction.” The savagery of instinctual
forces of sexuality unleashed by VHP, Bajrang Dal and RSS family is
matched only to Nazi's sexual assaults on Jews for decades and on
lakhs of prisoners in various concentration camps. Collective
psychosis in Gujarat violence expresses the dynamics of activation of
all symbols, sexual & de-sexualized. We cannot fail to see Leon
Trotskey's insights in to this psycho- historical process when he says
“the avenues of the Third Reich are paved with symbols”.
Bajrang Dal proposed design of New Indian Saffron Flag, with the
sacred symbol ‘ Om ', Sword and Yellow Swastica displayed prominently,
to replace tricolor reminds us of Hitler's final acceptance of the
NAZI Flag design after several trials, a flag of red material with a
white disc bearing in its centre a black swastika. Yellow Swastika
again represents the cosmic seven headed serpent Ananta on whose head
rests Vishnu in deluge. Babri demolition saw the awakening of this
serpent which evoked and lifted the psychic repression on the recesses
of the ridiculous sexual and aggressive instincts. In a single assault
on Babri Mosque and its aftermath ghost of Nathuram Godse revisited
the murder scene with a vengeance, but this time to persecute Islam
with a vision of ‘final solution' and overturn the entire petty
bourgeois sponsored liberalism founded by M.K. Gandhi to spearhead
installation of capitalist hegemony in the garbs of constituted
‘Organized Hindu Community as Resurgent Nation'. Today the trustees of
Tata Birla in 1920's have turned into prisoners of Ambanis, Mittals
and Tatas and Narendra Mody has turned into Trustworthy representative
of Capital.
Pillars of Fascism in ruins of Babri
To day we get glimpse into core values and functions of fascism by
taking stocks of Gujarat today. It is the logical culmination of Babri
Mosque demolition, horrendous events, of 2001-2002 and
experimentations in ‘Hindutwa Laboratory' in Gujarat .
Genocide through violence, death and fear have altered everyday
life of Ahemadabad and Gujarat . New landscape came into being in the
corporate globalizing city and has announced the death of old Textile
Industrial city. Fascist neo liberals and fascist politicians have
annihilated Muslim ‘occupied territories' and ushered new culture
dominated by Islam phobia. New educational systems are also humming
with Hindu- Gujarati discourses with ethnic bias and eulogizing Aryan
rule of Hitler
The ascetics of BD cadre wearing saffron strips around forehead
and VHP sponsored ‘resurgence' has been highly profitable for Narendra
Modi. Confederation of Industries have praised Narendra Modi for
Industrial progress. Ratan Tata, Ashok Mittal , Ambani's …. have
showered abounding praise on Narendra Modi. He has become the darlings
of large Industrial and corporate finance capital. Tata Motors have
shifted to Gujarat from the base station of unionism By making voting
compulsory and legally binding in Panchayat elections compulsory Modi
has demonstrated how to reinforce police centralization and dragnet to
keep strict watch on voters in far remotest areas of Gujarat . It
reminds us of Nazi Gestapo's tight hold on individualized masses.
Within India , Gujarat is the only state with largest number of
SEZs. Labor laws are most restrictive and suffocating, anti-union and
coupled with draconian TADA. Contract labor has grown many fold,
diamond workers (polishing ) are the most productive and lowest paid
amongst all international counterparts. Deadly chemical industry has
flourished. Farm labor of hybrid cotton producers and overall child
labor utilization in Gujarat is lowest paid and highest in numbers.
Cotton seed farm labor works for more than 12 hours a day. What is
clear is the super intensification of labor and exploitation through
increase in absolute surplus value, lengthening of working hours. This
trajectory is continuation of earlier decade. The façade of growth and
‘wadening of infrastructure' is being built on unprecedented growth of
participation of adivasi- tribal population as casual laborers. They
are being deployed in brick- kilns, rock queries ------with hazardous
working conditions in arduous tasks with hard labor and life risks and
very low wages! Gain of this sector is at the cost of –displacement
and extermination of tribal and backward population caused by
construction of new damns, highways, and huge occupation of hilly and
forests areas by mining mafia parading under ‘development patriots'!
Total collapse in wage structures and availability of ‘immense pool'
of casual – unskilled work force, their super exploitation has been
unheard in Indian history. Increase in length of ‘working day' has
added to misery and brought animal status of the working population.
All this Hindutwa fascists, Togadia (Heart Surgeon and an advocate
of human butchery), Narendra Modi who provided state sanctions for the
holocaust of 2002 identify today's state of affairs in Gujarat as
“Resurgence of Hindutwa', a virtual reality of ‘Casteless Hindu
Community' has been built on the foundations of annihilation of
resistance from working masses. We are reminded again words of Leon
Trotsky on the occasion of assumption of power by Nazis. He hammered
Hitler's agenda, “His tasks are assigned him by monopoly capital” and
tears apart the veil of fascist fetishism and claims of the fans and
beholders of Fascism. “ Despair has raised them to their feet; fascism
has given them a banner. Everything that should have been eliminated
from the national organism in the form of cultural excrement in the
course of the normal development of society has now come gushing out
from the throat; capitalist society is puking up the undigested
barbarism. Such is the physiology of National Socialism..”

You cannot build anything on the foundations of caste. You cannot
build up a nation, you cannot build up a morality. Anything that you
will build on the foundations of caste will crack and will never be a
whole.
