MAHASWETA DEVI AND HER CROCODILE TEARS FOR TRIBALS

Taking full advantage of their esteemed profession and high position in the society, the ‘so-called’ intellectuals represented by few film actors, actresses, poets, singers, painters, stage and screen personalities adorned with lipstick, powder, facial make-ups, red ribbon tied around the forehead and other ornamental materials often visit Lalgarh in order to not only extend moral, technical and logistic support to the murderer Chatradhar Mahato and other Maoists working in the garb of “Police Santrash Birodhi Janasadharner Committee” (PSBJC) but also supply them arms, ammunition and money as well as help them in creating total lawlessness.

The ‘pseudo’ intellectuals habituated to live in air-conditioned palatial buildings and travel in air-conditioned flights and cars have started talking much about ‘poverty’ and “under development” amongst tribals. Did these clowns born with silver spoons ever experience what poverty is? These hypocrites have never been found getting involved in any sort of social work either in their localities or anywhere else. They have also never visited Lalgarh with food, clothings, books, pens, pencils, medicines and other basic needs for the poor tribals and their children. Throughout their life they remained engaged in amassing wealth and property. Now these ‘so-called’ intellectuals sold out by way of being on the pay roll of big business houses and imperialists are entrusted with the job of destabilizing the Left Front Government in West Bengal at any cost and anyhow.

The ‘so-called’ poverty of tribals in Lalgarh is nothing but an unacceptable excuse on the part of these ‘pseudo’ intellectuals who think themselves to be above the law of the land.

The Maoists observed “TWO DAYS VIOLENT AND DESTRUCTIVE BANDH” in the entire country demanding openly the release of their three top leaders Kobad Gandhi, Chatradhar Mahato and Chandrabhusan Yadav. But these perverted intellectuals playing into the hands of anti-national forces are still hell bent on proving that Chatradhar Mahato is a tribal leader but not a Maoist.

The Maoist movement in Lalgarh started with an attempt to murder the Chief Minister on 3rd November, 2008. In their subsequent demands, the Maoists never put forward any economic demand. All their demands were political relating to surrender by the Government, physically kneeling down of the Government Officials and winding up all police stations from Jangalmahal areas consisting of three districts including Lalgarh so as to create a free zone of Maoists. In order to achieve their goal they have started butchering CPI (M) leaders and cadres. The Maoists have already paralyzed the normal life in the entire Jangalmahal area.

The frauds have not uttered even a single word against the attempt of murder on the Chief Minister or other brutalities and atrocities perpetrated by the Maoists.
It is useless to expect anything positive from these self-centered hypocrites who have been suffering from intellectual bankruptcy and lack of pragmatism. Their “Friend, Philosopher and Guide” Mahasweta Devi is also not an exception to this. She talks so much about principle and democracy. But she did not hesitate to accept the “Magsaysay Award”, which was introduced in the name of President Ramon del Fierro Magsaysay who was responsible for the butchering of thousands of Communists and innocent people in Phillippines. If she were a genuine Leftist or if she had possessed mimimum conscience or morality or ethics or democratic point of view, she would not have cerrtainly accepted the award introduced in the name of a butcher.
