Book Review : ‘The Girl from Kathua : A Sacrificial Victim of Ghazwa-e-Hind’

This book is about an incident that shook India in 2018.

A 6-year-old girl was kidnapped and gang-raped on 10th January 2018. She was kept in a temple in Jammu for 4 days and then killed.

After this incident, according to the order of a Special Court on 10th June 2019, 3 accused were sentenced to life imprisonment, while 3 others were sentenced to 5 years imprisonment and a fine of Rs 50,000 each was imposed on them. Besides these people, a minor boy was also accused.

After this incident, Hindus were called demoniacal, and its effect lasted several months. This article reviews the book which explains this episode in detail.

1. Appreciable efforts of the author to find out the truth in the Kathua case

In her book ‘The Girl from Kathua : A Sacrificial Victim of Ghazwa-e-Hind’, Madhu Purnima Kishwar has claimed that a campaign is being conducted to spread false and negative information about Hindus, to persecute them and change the religious mindset of society. This book is a study of the Kathua case since April 2018. The author noticed that a chargesheet containing many errors, and strange and meaningless charges had been filed against the accused. Also, Police tortured many innocent Hindus and forced them to give false testimony. It took almost 5 years for the author to get information on this case with a lot of effort and risk. Yet, Prof. Kishwar relentlessly explored the inconsistencies in the case. This exercise exposed her to the ruthlessness and collusion of the people in power. This book is a revelation of how Mehbooba Mufti ensured that Hindus and India become villains, by turning the matter as per the instructions of ISI (Pakistan’s Intelligence Agency).

2. An attempt to reveal the mentality of fanatical Muslims through the book

When the second part of the book will be published later this year, people will have a indepth understanding of the case. There is much to learn from the present book. In particular, the growing crisis of Indian culture has been mentioned. Although this book is about a specific event, it is more important for Hindus. Hundreds of Hindu girls are routinely raped and killed by Muslims across the country; but related news is rarely on the front page of any newspaper. When I first heard about this case in 2018, I couldn’t believe it. First, a gang rape and that too in a temple ? Hindus will never do such a thing. Second, mass rape to exterminate Hindus (in their view, infidels) has been the policy of fanatics for the past 1,300 years. Their mentality has not changed and this is being used without fail in the bigoted Muslim world. However, we should not talk about our feelings here.

3. Hindus must learn to have pride in their religion from Muslims

The most important lesson we can learn from the case in this book is that not only in India, but all over the world, Muslims unite to subjugate Hindus, who are not proud of their religion. Christians and secular Hindus give full rights to them without any benefits in return. This Muslim tribe from the deserts is so committed to their religion that even the Courts, Police and Hindu politicians end up following their diktat. I think Hindus should have at least 1% commitment to their Dharma as Muslims have to their religion. On the other hand, even if their life is threatened, most Hindus tend to have high moral values and give preference to thinking about others.

4. After Kashmir, attempts are being made to evict Hindus from Jammu, Ladakh, Uttarakhand and Himachal

Second, the population of Jammu has been changing rapidly. After evicting Hindus from the Kashmir Valley, they want Hindus from Jammu to go to other places in India. After Jammu, it is the turn of Ladakh; and then their efforts will increase to an extent where Hindus will have to jump into the Arabian Sea or the Bay of Bengal. Uttarakhand, Devbhoomi Jammu and Himachal Pradesh are being flooded with Rohingyas and refugees from Bangladesh with the sole aim of achieving Ghazwa-e-Hind (Islamistan). Their efforts are being funded by the ISI and American businessman George Soros.

5. As per history, the success rate of invaders is 95%

Third, Hindus are always defeated in the information war. It makes no difference if India and America have Hindu CEOs in major organisations. Hindus do not know anything about new age warfare except writing codes for media programmes. Earlier we were losing wars on the Hindu battlefields and now we are losing in the cyber world. The reasons for this is the same. In any war, the aggressor always has an advantage; simply because he chooses the time and place of war according to his convenience. The defender in such cases can merely retaliate. Hence, in world history the success rate of invaders is 95%. We have to prepare ourselves to face this situation.

6. Journalist Rana Ayyub objected to the trailer of the film ‘Hum Do Hamare Barah’

Journalist Rana Ayyub criticized the trailer of the film ‘Hum Do Hamare Barah (We two, our twelve)’. She tweeted – “How does the Censor Board allow a film like this that depicts Muslims as the reason for population explosion and extends the relentless attack on the community. The brazen hate and Islamophobia when they use the image of a Muslim family and call it Hum do Hamare Barah”.

7. Hindus should leave their resilience and be aggressive

There is another subtle reference in this book. It says – Hindus top the list of conflict avoidance. From childhood, Hindus are taught to avoid conflict even giving up their self-respect. Hence, when it comes to Hindus around the world, it is a soft society, who Muslims derisively call ‘lazy and eunuchs’. I agree with them here. At present, despite being 75% (being in the majority), Hindus are in a very difficult situation. Nowhere in the world will we find such a majority begging for mercy from a minority.

8. Most of the high-profile Hindus are a part of the Muslim-led creation of Ghazwa-e-Hind

The Muslim community openly indulges in and promotes corruption in India’s Judicial system. Like it or not, the Muslim community has played the role of protector of criminals and terrorism. As a result, most Court decisions are anti-Hindu. There are 2 reasons for this mentality. One – Hindus are ashamed of their own culture. They feel that their culture has not done anything useful in the past. Two – Hindus expect praise from other countries, especially the West. Back in 2016, a Muslim friend of mine commented that only the Supreme Court can save us. At that time I thought he must have meant ‘we’, meaning ‘middle class people’; but a few months later I came to know that he was referring to the Muslim community.

The list appended at the end of this book, of people who have aided the Islamists in this heinous endeavour, is shocking. The Governors who assisted them, the staff in the Prime Minister’s Office, the Police officers and the Judges are all mostly Hindus. Although some are staunch Hindus, they have helped spread negative propaganda about Hindu Dharma without any benefit one way or the other. The reasons for this should be explored immediately.

Why are these Hindus sitting like ducks when Hindu Dharma is getting weak with the thorn of secularism ? The author puts forth a question through the book, ‘Why do Hindus eagerly participate in the conspiracy when Muslims are trying to implement Ghazwa-e-Hind at any cost ?’

9. Pictures and charts make the book more readable

In the last chapter, ‘Tragic Consequences of Hindu Humility’, the author has spoken about the perils of Hindu civilization. This case raises relevant questions, the answers to which Hindu leaders must find. The Government should realise that power is not only for development, but for correcting distortions in culture. The language of this book is simple, factual and not ardently nationalistic. To make this book easy to understand, screenshots, maps and charts have been included based on the research conducted. The book is well compiled, readable and the paper is of good quality. After reading this book, one’s blood will start to boil (that is, if the blood flows in the right direction).

This book has one drawback – its weight is over 1 kg. It has 642 pages and the original price is Rs 799 (Discounted – Rs 649). As a result, this book will not reach the general public who need to know about this matter. The font size of the print is a bit large. About 100 pages can be reduced if it is edited; then it will become more handy for the readers. The Kathua case is now in the Court of Law and in the Court of politicians. They should note this and conduct an accurate research on the human rights of the 7 people who have been rotting in jail for no reason.

Until then, Ganga-Jamuni-Tehzeeb Zindabad !

(Ganga-Jamuni-Tehzeeb is a culture of supposed unity between Hindus and Muslims who are living on the banks of the Ganga and Yamuna !)

Why are Hindus eager to participate in the conspiracy when Muslims are implementing Ghazwa-e-Hind at any cost ?
