Least Religious Countries
When you travel to Europe, don't be surprised to find that many Europeans don't believe in God. I have even witnessed some alcohol-infused conversations between Americans and Europeans that almost ended in fistfights over His/Her existence. When you travel to the following countries, you might want to pick a less controversial topic of conversation ... umm, maybe George W?Here are the Top 10 least religious countries in the world:
1. Sweden (up to 85% non-believer, atheist, agnostic)
2. Vietnam
3. Denmark
4. Norway
5. Japan
6. Czech Republic
7. Finland
8. France
9. South Korea
10. Estonia (up to 49% non-believer, atheist, agnostic)
The one that surprised me was Israel, ranking 19th, with up to 37% claiming to be non-believer, atheist, agnostic. Compare that with the United States, ranking 44th, with 3-9% non-believers, atheists, agnostics. (I think I have met them all on the streets of New York City, too.)
The survey concluded that "high levels of organic atheism are strongly correlated with high levels of societal health, such as low homicide rates, low poverty rates, low infant mortality rates, and low illiteracy rates, as well as high levels of educational attainment, per capita income, and gender equality. Most nations characterized by high degrees of individual and societal security have the highest rates of organic atheism, and conversely, nations characterized by low degrees of individual and societal security have the lowest rates of organic atheism. In some societies, particularly Europe, atheism is growing. However, throughout much of the world -- particularly nations with high birth rates -- atheism is barely discernable."

Dear "sister" Marizha.
There are 42 major religions and more than a hundred sects in the world.
The number of the followers ranges from 2.1billiion, 1.5billion and 0.9billion for Christianity, Islam and Hinduism correspondingly, to < than 500 thousand for Rastafarianism and Scientology (also full-scale religions); some sects at the same time are as small as a few thousands of lunatics.
What is very interesting is that all of these religions have shockingly similar structure and mechanism of operation. There is always a god who is very jealous (“You shall have no other gods before me” - sounds familiar?) and who is watching your every move, there is always paradise after this life which you must dedicate to your “father”, there is always a way how a lost soul can erase his or her sins; three just to avoid a huge list of striking similarities. But here it becomes very interesting – it is always a priest, imam, rabbi or any other “spiritual leader” who is readily available to help of course in return for a little donation for holy house needs! DON’T you my “sister” see that each organized religion is organized so well just for ONE REASON - to control the crowd and maintain the paradise on earth not for you or me but for all “spiritual leaders”. DON’T you notice their lifestyle, - does it remotely look like what for example Jesus was teaching?
So out of 42 religions and countless sects which should I follow? I guess it depends which fairytale story is more appealing to me, will it be the one about a talking snake and eternity in heaven, your own planet or 17 hot virgins? Wow, can I have all three?
Use you common sense and keep your right to question things, do not become another slave of religulous doctrine.
Sincerely,
VV.
Marizha Mar 14th 2009 4:46PM
I am not a slave of religious doctrine. I am a believer to my Creator, TO MY GOD who is MY LIFE AND WEALTH. By the way, who created you brother? Did you just pop-up in this world? Anyway no matter what you say, no matter what you are trying to explain to me of whoever, I will never argue about MY GOD OF ALL creations.
ONE THING I KNOW THERE IS ONE GOD WHO OWNS AND CREATED HEAVENS AND EARTH AND EVERYTHING THAT IS ON IT.HE IS MIGHTY, POWERFUL, KING OF KINGS, HE IS IN CONTROL AND HE IS IN CHARGE OF EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE.
GOD BLESS YOU.

As one poster mentioned. People have done a great deal of evil in the name of God but it is far outweighed by the good that is done in the name of God. Now let's see what atheists have inflicted on our world. We can start off with the names of Adolf Hitler, Josef Stalin and Mao-Tse-Tung. The first two were given to us courtesy of the so-called smart and sophisticated European society, the third by our Asian friends and two of them ascribed to the philosophy of Karl Marx,also, of European extraction. They are only responsible for the murder, torture and massacre of untold tens of millions of our fellow human beings of which millions of their fellow atheists were complicit. A genocide unmatched in the history of mankind with far more individuals killed, just in the 20th century, in the name of godless Nazism, Facism and Communism than have ever died because of religious persecution.

i think maybe many people has a very wrong picture about religion .
to belive in Higher Being GOD is not so hard since only stupid person can say there is not something out there to keep the balance in Universe ---Universe we do not even know .Religion is hard to follow since we are all about feelings therefore people loose their faith and it is not easy to follow religion .But people who are strong enough and can follow the rules not just emotions then they are can find differnt avenue than "suicide". Catholic would say that is a sin ------since we have no right over our life only God does.
Also i heard that God made us and showed his face to us and nothing can satisy human being until they find HIm.If they do there would not be a need for suicide.
Catholics to me seems so right about those things.Sad for people who are not strong enough to follow that.But I think the world is so confused about God and religion therfore more more people rather say they are agnostic and atheist ----------I could see their point too.But religion did built some good counties I personaly like to visit as Germany ,Italy ,France.......Rusia was lost no wonder people under them were lost ....no freedom of religion -they are under great shock now ...Sweeden was good before ,seems lost ....following just emotions...same for all the other countries who left faith they were found on
.therfore seems to me more and more they are getting lost in space---their people are lost most of the time.
No goals after they fullfill material satisfaction and all whAT IS LEFT SEEMS LIKE IS A SUICIDE .SAAAD!!!
Robert Mar 9th 2009 3:53PM
tsk tsk tsk, how true the saying; there is none so blind who refuses to see. The consequences of self imposed blindness is spiritualy fatal. Oh well!.
E.C. Mar 9th 2009 4:42PM
UM nooooo u.s. is anywhere between 10% and as much as 17% non-religious/atheist/agnostic/secular/freethinker
Tate Mar 9th 2009 8:42PM
No religion is perfect, even atheists. If they reject the existence of GOD, they have rejected life and hope as well. That's the reason why Nordic countries have high suicide rates. Those atheist school shooters have given up hope as well. They have committed the blasphemy of taking others' lives as well.

Educational attainment usually correlates with levels of atheism - like when you reach grade three and stop believing in Santa Claus.
That seems to be evidenced by the pro-Christian arguments above, the sophistication of which is paralleled only the playground:
'My dad says you're going to Hell.'
'You're an Atheist school-shooter!'
'I know you are, but what am I?!'
Perhaps America's ardent embrace of Christianity reveals something about the collective intellectual capacity of a people willing to elect George Bush as its leader?

Thank you Devil's Advocate
Martin Parker Mar 9th 2009 11:01PM
Sweden, the least religious country. Interesting. They have the highest standard of living, the lowest crime rates, the lowest poverty and one of the most educated populations. Maybe the whole world could do better with a little less religion.
emarinski Apr 22nd 2009 1:29PM
How about the actions of many of the non-believers? i.e. Mao Tse-Tung, Hitler, Polpot, Stalin.... all aethists and the largest mass murderers in history, and all from the 20th century. And where is your Christian equivalent??
shashigupta Jun 13th 2009 12:41AM
yes you are 100% right my dear
truth project Aug 7th 2009 12:48PM
The most violent hateful people I know are atheists and leftists. After all, look at the communists persecutions, muslims also. It depends on what you believe in. The communists alone account for more than Nazis, 100 million plus. Then you can add China, Cambodia, vietnams communist activities. Most of it you can account for dictatorship styles. Atheists account for more killings and murders than religious one. Atheists don't have to abide by Gods 10 commandments 'thou shall not kill" .
The belief that religious people are worst is just bull. Just go to a christian concert versus a rock star concert and see the trash left on the floor when it is done. You can see the difference in care and concern.
Its just too bad there are too many anti christian bigots , as seen on this post.
By the way, if Sweden is so wonderful, why is beastiality so rampand. ( you know sex with animals)?

I'm with the following: I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ. by Mahatma Gandhi
Jennyfer Sep 22nd 2009 1:35PM
The truth is that religion will not save you. There are 30,000 religions in the world as of right now and if you believe that just because your strongly religious you will be saved that your wrong. Because the Lord will not judge you on judgement day on how religious you are dont forget religion is man made God wants obedience and he wants us to repent and be the best that we can be . Dont go for traditions or anything that religion will ask for you to do go for what THE HOLY BIBLE says thats the Lords word. At my church women have to wear long skirts not ever!! cut there hair and wear no make up and you cant dye your hair or have piercings, the men cant grow there hair long no piercings as well .I on the other hand go to church with skinny jeans i dye my hair jet black and i do wear makeup and i feel that the Lord will not judge me on that he knows my heart and he knows im trying . Just remember read the bible pray and ask for forgiveness God Bless.
Amneris Sep 25th 2009 12:12AM
What is amazing to me is that people don't seem to realize as a whole that atheism is a religion. It requires blind faith and absolute adherence to its goal of "not believing". Atheists are much more "religious" about their beliefs than many Christians are, actually. They constantly study their cause, and work to convince others to join their cause.
nadia Jan 7th 2010 7:14PM
I used to be an agnostic/atheist but now I believe. When I was an atheist I never did much research on the topic, but once I started diving deep into the subject I realized there were more facts that pointed to a God than not. For all the agnostics/atheists out there (if you are keeping an open mind, or at least make an attempt to) I recommend reading the following 3 books (all very quick/easy reads): 1. Case for a Creator by Lee Strobel 2. C.S. Lewis' Case for Christ 3. Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis. If after reading you come to the conclusion that God and Christ are fairy tales then at least you can say that with full confidence since you've read up on the other point of view.
I can say that I've read pretty much every single book on Atheism, Christanity, philosphy, and religion (I've even read the Satanic Bible, from start to finish!) and tried to keep an open mind the whole way through..and although I have never seen God nor heard the voice of God I can say now with full clarity that I am pretty sure God is real.
I think my biggest question/issue has been why does God stay hidden from us?So time and time again I've tried to picture what it would be like seeing God right now just for a split second and I think if that were to happen to me in real life #1 I'd be really scared. When it comes down to it, I really DON'T want to see God, at least not yet. And then I pictured another option, what if God were there and any one of us could see God whenever we wanted, how would we feel if he was watching us 24/7... and that made me realize that that wouldn't be that great either since it would feel too much as though we were being watched/judged, and it would get annoying, kind of like your parents watching you all the time. And then add in that God has the ability to grant us eternal life in heaven... I know I would be following Him for all the wrong reasons, the biggest reason being fear. So the way it's set up (this ambiguity) in some way may be necessary so that people have the motivation to seek Him out, and have the motivation to want to be with Him. It makes sense that he wouldn't want us to be motivated out of fear, but to be motivated out of the realization that we need him and want to be with him, since nothing on this earth ever brings true happiness. We get glimpses of it here and there, but it's never permanent.
If we could always see Him or if He would make his presence known in the physical sense there would be no motivation, no excitment to follow Him and want to be with Him forever.. it would be forced. And there would be nothing to look forward to in heaven... the way God has set it up now is it's kind of like a really good surprise. Something to look forward to, something to reach for, since there is nothing on this planet that could ever truly satisfy us.

People with profond convictions without relieable evidence should never be in the position of influnce.........
Mitch Mar 1st 2010 4:55AM
I never hear a smart comment or reply from someone religious.
usually some where along the lines of...
"Christ is the Lord of all"
"Your a sinner, you need Jesus"
I've come to terms that humans will believe anything at any age.
I think moving to Sweden sound like a good idea.
We need to drop these last few god we are hanging onto... we don't believe in many of the gods that we used to.
And please stop saying that the bible is peaceful and religion is the way to making the world a better place.
Actually read the bible for yourself, don't just let someone read the good parts to you over and over. You might be shocked or sometimes even disgusted by what you find and if we took the bible literally we would be much worse off and not a very pleasant race.

Respected Madam
I am having a Global Political Plan. I am authorising you to execute the Plan on behalf of BJP and Human Civilization to ensure peace, security and justice.
Dr Debajyoti Das Gupta
Kolkata, West Bengal
GLOBAL PLAN: A JOURNEY FOR NEW POLITICAL SYSTEM
OBJECTIVE OF THE PLAN
This plan has been made for the betterment of our country and for the benefit of mankind.
Poor people would get most out of it. They would get money without losing their prestige or without destroying their family value, social value and culture.
Present political treats women like an object. This plan ensures a shift from this present approach. Under this new approach three hundred crore women of the world would be able to regain their prestige, status and position in the political arena.
This plan ensures a crime, corruption and oppression free world.
This plan provides a possibility of new dimension in global politics. A new political system may come out of it (neither capitalism nor communism). Religion may help to introduce morale, value and discipline based politics as viable alternative to both capitalism and communism.
Plan does not have any intention to harm anybody (any political party/ political leader/group/person).
On one hand it takes something and on the other hand it gives the due replacement.
In the long run it ensures global peace & prosperity and human face of development.
[ A]
How would you remove Crime, Corruption and Oppression from India and from other parts of the World?
Step one: Introduce use of Lie Detector Report (LDR) each year for every person at the time of /after filing of IT return.
Main objective is to tap unaccounted money. To begin with start with simple questionnaire as described below:
(1) What is the source of earnings?
(2) Is it white or black money?
(3) How did you gather this black money? (Give suitable alternatives: part time jobs/ fees received from profession/sale receipt of business/fund received from NRI relatives/criminal activities etc.)
(4) In case of criminal activity, hand over to appropriate authority (Police, C.B.I., Military etc.)
(5) In case of non-criminal activities make the process of charging penalties absolute simple, hassle-free and transparent (Lengthy process escalates cost and consumes valuable time).
Step two: Introduce use of Lie Detector Report (LDR) at the time of opening of bank account, each year & if necessary, at any point of time at the complete discretion of bank manager (discussed later in detail).
Here the objective is to tap those persons who escape from the hands of IT department. Use simple questions as described below:
(1) What is the source of money?
(2) Is it white or black money?
(3) How did you gather this black money? (Give suitable alternatives: part time jobs/ fees received from profession/sale receipt of business/fund received from NRI relatives/criminal activities etc.)
(4) In case of criminal activity, hand over to appropriate authority (Police, C.B.I., Military etc.)
(5) In case of non-criminal activities make the process of charging penalties absolute simple, hassle-free and transparent (Lengthy process escalates cost and consumes valuable time).
This part also involves reform of Reserve Bank of India.
(1) Accounts having black money must be debited instantly.
(2) All banks would open a separate account for this purpose with Reserve Bank of India under supervision of Reserve Bank of India.
(3) Let the account holder contest in the court & face LDT.
(4) Recipients of foreign money must undergo lie detector test (LDT). This step must be dealt with absolute care because one hand it concerns our National Security, on the other hand it involves those people who bring valuable foreign currencies for our country. If the recipients receive money on regular basis (like businessmen, top executives of MNCs or other big companies, families of NRIs, top professionals etc.) then they would face LDT once or twice a year. In all other cases & also in the previous case the concerned authority would have complete discretionary power to hold LDT in each transaction. Source and purpose of utilisation of fund must be brought under the notice of concerned authority.
Step three: Introduce submission of lie detector report (LDR) along with filing of nomination paper at the time of election (Panchayat/Municipality/Assembly/Parliament) to concerned authority like Election Commission etc.
Use simple questions
(1) Have you ever raped anyone?
(2) Have you ever murdered anyone?
(3) Have you ever played the role of keyman (paid money/ played the role of catalyst) in any murder or any rape?
(4) Have you accepted/used molestation/trafficking/raping of women or character assassination of individuals or any other unlawful activity as means of collecting fund for your party ever/ over long period of time?
(5) Have you ever cheated our Country?
(6) Have you ever taken responsibility of molestation/trafficking/raping of women or murder of anybody? (Encouraging crime; is it punishable offence?)
(7) Have you ever used women of our Country in such a way that impairs the image of our Country?
(8) Have you ever any connection with blue film rackets?
This reform has no intention to dishonour the respected members of the Panchayat/Municipality/Assembly/Parliament. It has been reported in the newspapers that respected leaders of different parties have expressed concern over the inclusion of bad elements in the political parties. This process would help them to isolate the bad elements from the political system. Hence, this is an attempt to give our respected leader true honour. Further, we are already having few systems like voter identity cards, disclosures of assets at the time of election etc., hence this is an addition to prevailing system only.
Step four : Extend the above process to all members of the parties.
Step five: Introduce LDTs for all Government and semi-government employment: at the time of initial employment, at the time of increment, at the time of promotion, at the time of transfer, at the time of retirement and at the time of leaving the job. Use simple questions as mentioned below:
(1) Have you ever raped anyone?
(2) Have you ever murdered anyone?
(3) Have you ever played the role of keyman (paid money/ played the role of catalyst) in any murder or any rape?
(4) Have you accepted molestation/trafficking/raping of women or character assassination of individuals or any other unlawful activity as means of collecting fund for your party ever/ over long period of time?
(5) Have you ever taken responsibility of molestation/trafficking/raping of women or murder of anybody? (Encouraging crime; is it punishable offence?)
(6) Have you ever used women of our Country in such a way that impairs the image of our Country?
(7) Have you ever any connection with blue film rackets?
(8) Are you connected to illegal fund from sources stated above?
Step five: Introduce LDTs for all private employment in companies, firms and proprietorship business, secretary to politicians, businessmen, professionals, estates : at the time of initial employment, at the time of increment, at the time of promotion, at the time of transfer, at the time of retirement and at the time of leaving the job. For employees working in banks, financial institutions, income tax department, customs, important government and private sector executives such tests may be organised yearly or at any point of time at the complete discretion of LDT authority. Use simple questions as mentioned below:
(1) Have you ever raped anyone?
(2) Have you ever murdered anyone?
(3) Have you ever played the role of keyman (paid money/ played the role of catalyst) in any murder or any rape?
(4) Have you accepted molestation/trafficking/raping of women or character assassination of individuals or any other unlawful activity as means of collecting fund for your party ever/ over long period of time?
(5) Have you ever taken responsibility of molestation/trafficking/raping of women or murder of anybody? (Encouraging crime; is it punishable offence?)
(6) Have you ever used women of our Country in such a way that impairs the image of our Country?
(7) Have you ever any connection with blue film rackets?
(8) Are you connected to illegal fund from sources stated above?
Step six: Introduce use of LDTs for all post holders or any relevant member of any union, association, clubs (registered or unregistered) or any other registered body yearly or at any suitable time gap. This part also applies to all post holders or relevant persons of student unions and all youth organizations. Use simple questions as below:
(1) Have you ever raped anyone?
(2) Have you ever murdered anyone?
(3) Have you ever played the role of keyman (paid money/ played the role of catalyst) in any murder or any rape?
(4) Have you accepted molestation/trafficking/raping of women or character assassination of individuals or any other unlawful activity as means of collecting fund for your party ever/ over long period of time?
(5) Have you ever taken responsibility of molestation/trafficking/raping of women or murder of anybody? (Encouraging crime; is it punishable offence?)
(6) Have you ever used women of our country in such a way that impairs the image of our country?
(7) Have you ever any connection with blue film rackets?
(8) Are connected to illegal fund from sources stated above?
Step seven: Introduce LDTs at the time of sale/ transfer/ gift of assets exceeding certain amount by any individual within India or in case of cross border transactions.
Use simple questions as mentioned below:
(1) What is the source of fund?
(2) Have you ever raped anyone?
(3) Have you ever murdered anyone?
(4) Have you ever played the role of keyman (paid money/ played the role of catalyst) in any murder or any rape?
(5) Have you accepted molestation/trafficking/raping of women or character assassination of individuals or any other unlawful activity as means of collecting fund for your party ever/ over long period of time?
(6) Have you ever taken responsibility of molestation/trafficking/raping of women or murder of anybody? (Encouraging crime; is it punishable offence?)
(7) Have you ever used women of our Country in such a way that impairs the image of our Country?
(8) Have you ever any connection with blue film rackets?
(9) Are you connected to illegal fund from sources stated above?
[ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS MAY BE ASKED DEPENDING ON THE RELEVANT SITUATION]
EFFECTS
(1) Elimination of corruption i.e., black money.
(2) Elimination of oppression especially on children, women & weaker sections of the society.
(3) Elimination of all sorts of ill practices i.e., oppression on women in the political system & in the society, child slavery, usage of foreign money against interest of our country, increasing hands of blue film rackets etc.
(4) Elimination of disguised slavery from the political parties. This is one area where silence must be broken. Silence must not be treated as acceptance. Most of the time political system is imposed on the new entrant without disclosing the consequences. The unfortunate person carries the fallouts even for the remaining part of his life.
(5) Government would get huge public money in the form of tax.
(6) Major shift from dialogue based politics to issue based politics.
(7) In economic front there will be a shifting from politics to calculation because it would become easier to identify fund wise surplus & deficit segments.
(8) Our country would become more secure than before.
(9) This plan would immensely help the poor & weaker section of the society.
(10) THIS PLAN WOULD ADD A NEW DIMENSION IN WORLD POLITICS (NEITHER CAPITALISM NOR COMMUNISIM).RELIGION MAY FORM FRAMEWORK OF SOCIETY & POLITICS AND WITHIN THAT GIVEN FRAMEWORK MORALE BASED POLITICS MAY BE ABLE TO OPERATE.
USAGE OF PUBLIC MONEY
(1) Infrastructural expenditure in the fields of drinking water facility, agriculture, health, education, science & research, defence, roads, housing etc.
(2) Expenditure towards social segment
(A)SOCIAL SECURITY NET (SSN): THIS IS MOST IMPORTANT AREA OF THIS ENTIRE PLAN. POOR PEOPLE WOULD GET RELIEF DIRECTLY FROM GOVERNMENT WITHOUT LOOSING THEIR DIGNITY, HONOUR, FAMILY VALUE, CULTURE AND RELIGION.
(b)Schemes concerning employment generations both among urban poor and rural poor.
(c)All schemes concerning benefit of the poor.
(3) Calculative use of micro credit in targeted region.
(4) Tailor-made loan facility to the small scale entrepreneurs.
(5) Entrepreneurship based on scientific research must be encouraged by extending loan facility. This facility may be extended to successful foreign scientists willing to establish ventures based on scientific research work in India in collaboration with Indian partner.
(6) Loans may be extended to technical people willing start their own venture. Probable recipient of loans are as follows:
(a) Engineers (including engineers from IIT & other institutions and diploma engineers) having experience in India or abroad.
(b) Self employed personnel in the respective field.
(7) Expenditure towards Education
(a) Emphasis must be given on primary education so that we can attain hundred -percent literacy within stipulated timeframe.
(b) At secondary and higher secondary level syllabus must undergo constant revising in order to make it contemporary and competitive. At the same time, syllabus must contain adequate topics covering Indian Culture, Ancient Indian Civilization, and Indian Freedom Struggle etc.
(c) There must be harmony between syllabuses at different level.
(d) We need to work very hard at the college and university level. Huge funding is required to introduce internationally accepted contemporary courses and to open new institutions having world class facilities.
(e) Teacher Training programmes at all levels need serious revising. These programmes must aim at refreshing, training and developing the teachers so that they cope themselves with the rapidly changing academic world.
(f) Research works having connectivity to outer world may be given priority to purely academic research work. It would make education relevant for the society.
(g) Vocational courses: This is an important part of this plan. Considering literacy level and dropout rates at all level, it is suggested that vocational courses must given more emphasis. Courses may be re-designed to bring harmony among different levels. Candidates willing to start business may be selected on suitable basis and financial assistance/loans based on financial prudence may be offered to them. It also requires huge investment and constant monitoring & support from government. This area addresses interest of common people of our country and must be dealt with proper attention.
(8) Continuous training & development programme of employees must be framed catering to the needs of both government and private sector. This would make employees more productive, flexible & competitive. At the same time, it may be able to give some relief to those employees who have lost their jobs either temporarily or permanently.
(9) This plan may result a shift from present political system. Government must bear the cost of rehabilitation like cost of treatment, alternative employment opportunity etc.
(10) Considering the influx of fund it is suggested to make plan for Provident Fund to Unrecognised Sector.
(11) All existing schemes concerning social security must continue.
(12) Support from industry must be sought in the relevant cases.
(13) In the globalised environment indigenous industries must get adequate financial support from government. However industries having meaningful research activity must get more support from Government.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
This plan involves huge cost in the form of scientific research & establishment cost. Still considering the revenue in the form of tax it can be said that it would generate surplus in the long run. Thus it is a profitable project.
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
Perhaps due to technical problems Court has not accepted LDT. Proposed Plan perceives this problem as minor and suggests BJP to make necessary arrangements with scientists/research institutes to overcome this problem. Proposed Plan expects kind cooperation from eminent scientists from all countries across the globe to resolve this issue for the benefit of mankind.
RISK AND RESISTANCE
Harmful rackets operating in our society would try to create chaos & destroy the plan from all corners. Resistance would be very high. Involvement of billion & billion dollar blue film industry and underworld has made the plan highly risky.
HOW WOULD YOU OVERCOME RISK AND RESISTANCE
Don’t make it personal.
Highlight the plan, not the person.
Key factors to be communicated to public
Removal of corruption.
Elemination of oppression on women.
Social Security Net (SSN)
Elemination of political slavery.
Transparency in the system
Thus you would be able to get public support which would help you to overcome the resistance of opposition parties.
In order to overcome the risk factors you need support from your party. But before that you should prepare your party.
HOW WOULD YOU PREPARE YOUR PARTY
First, go through self introspection.
Assess, whether you can face LDT.
If the answer is yes, go ahead with the plan.
If the answer is no, give it to any suitable leader from your own party, who can face LDT. If still the answer is no, please give it to any suitable leader from other parties, because the plan is more important than anything else.
Select your prospective leader from youth & colleges on the basis of LDT.
Screening for nomination in different elections must be made strictly on the basis of LDT.
Make your women wing more powerful. Give real power to women leaders as much as possible.
In cases involving oppression on women engage your lawyer wing. Ask them to pursue lie detector in court. If you consider necessary, arrange financial assistance for the victim.
Don’t use `Tit for Tat’ strategy against women belongs to your opposition party. Take operational action against men & political action against women of rival political parties.
Bring oppression on women in politics issue in the academic arena through research works. These works must cover a vast area including political terrorism, nexus between political parties and blue film rackets, indiscriminate use dominance theory, sharing of money (segment wise in money value and in percentage: income wise classification, expenditure wise classification, party wise classification, party position wise classification etc.), wastage of money, real effect on poor & role of political parties (how real issues like drinking water facility, hunger, poverty, corruption, crime etc. submerge behind the shadow of oppression on women).
COST FOR ACCEPTING THE PLAN
In this world nothing is cost free. This plan is also not cost free. Some of your party workers & leaders may find themselves in trouble, still from the viewpoint of party, as on date BJP is in a position to absorb this risk.
GAIN FOR ACCEPTING THE PLAN
BJP would be able to create a changed positive image in the mindset of people.
BJP is likely to get support of women & poor people.
Transparency issue is likely to be accepted by the youth.
In the long run, workers from other parties may join BJP (removal of political slavery).
Educated class would likely welcome the plan.
Business community would likely support the plan.
SELECTION OF BJP
This issue relates to Indian Politics during last sixty years. I have never been involved in any sort of politics. With little knowledge in Indian politics I could find BJP as the only big party who can accept these challenges (ideologically, politically and legally). In addition to that I think other political parties do not want to change the system. Perhaps they prefer to live in this world of crime, corruption & oppression. You would face strong resistance from other parties while pursuing this political plan. On the contrary this resistance would provide you pack of political issues.
YOU CAN MAKE THE PLAN GLOBAL
You can make this plan using proper platform like International Court, UNO, GATT, OPEC, WORLD BANK, IMF, and ADB etc. Further, I think this plan would appeal all countries across the world.
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
USA is facing severe financial crisis. This system would help them to recover huge unrecovered tax which could be utilised for turnaround of economy. Further it would help them to investigate into fraud & siphoning of funds.
Religion, family value and peace would be to pacify the tension and depression from American society and this may contribute to higher productivity& higher economic growth. Religious groups may join their hands to combat against blue film rackets that are contaminating the soil of USA. In fact these forces are working against the interest of USA. Perhaps these forces are breaking National and International laws. Religious group may take up this issue at Court and pursue to use lie detector. Apart from this they may raise this issue in religious meetings, debate, discussions & conferences in colleges and universities etc. Thus they would be able to increase their presence in next generation citizens of USA. Religious groups may take up different social welfare schemes to increase their presence in the society.
Proposed Plan suggests religious groups to form strong united forum and must play significant role in Holy War. They may extend support in the form of political support/financial assistance/legal assistance/technical assistance etc. Members of religious committee would show tough resistance (resistance does not mean violence/war) at ground.
Proposed Plan wants active participation of Religious Communities in this Holy War for indefinite period of time.
It would not be proper for the students to live in isolation. Student community can play a great role in the fight against `Oppression on Women’. They have lot of options i.e. wall magazines, magazines, journals, meetings, debates, conferences, serious research work etc.
Academic world has done a great mistake by overlooking this segment completely. This is the time to compensate against the old mistakes.
Civil societies and human right organizations also have done similar great mistakes. They must prepare themselves for peaceful mass movements and may form groups with other segments fighting for the same cause.
Government agencies may also play key role here. FBI may move to Court to freeze the accounts of such illegal rackets.
USA has offered many things to the world for e.g. democracy, freedom of speech, science, technology etc. World is waiting to see USA fighting against the oppression on women. Political parties may take up the issue and world is eager to hear from any USA President fighting for same cause `in this war either you are with me or you are against me’.
EUROPE
Like USA European countries are facing severe economic crisis. This system would help them to recover their economies. Academicians from this land have enlightened the world in different field. Now they may take this issue seriously. Student community, civil societies and human right organizations may move together to fight against this menace. Government agencies may play supporting role by freezing accounts of illegal rackets.
Proposed Plan suggests religious groups to form strong united forum and must play significant role in Holy War. They may extend support in the form of political support/financial assistance/legal assistance/technical assistance etc. Members of religious groups would show tough resistance (resistance does not mean violence/war) at ground.
Proposed Plan wants active participation of Religious Communities in this Holy War for indefinite period of time.
VATICAN CITY
In Europe Vatican City may pursue this issue to introduce politics with morale & discipline in Europe. Religions may regain their position in European Society. Politically Europe wants to get back their recognition for a long period of time. Unfortunately, even formation of European Union could not bring such respect for them. Proposed Plan suggests that Europeans must get more united. Marriage blessed by Vatican City among citizens of different European countries would bring respect & healthy relationship among different countries. Religion, family value, morale, discipline and culture would help this place to unite. This unity would strengthen their economy in the form of increasing presence in international trade & commerce and higher GDP. It is expected that Vatican City would ensure religion to get new place in the society for the benefit of mankind. Perhaps one day we will get UNITED STATES OF EUROPEAN COUNTRIES under leadership of Vatican City.
Proposed Plan suggests Vatican City to take significant responsibility in the Holy War to ensure global security, peace and justice. Proposed Plan also suggests Vatican City to play significant active role as `Protector of Religion’ in the World.
World has forgotten the sacrifice of Father. Still he is suffering from pain, because we did nothing when others were suffering. He is suffering from pain....He is still bleeding....forever?
ISRAEL
Proposed Plan would give this immensely talented religious country huge power to combat against corruption/crime. Proposed Plan suggests Israel to extend necessary financial/technical/legal/political support in this peaceful Holy War. Israel may become integral part in this journey for security, peace and justice forever.
Proposed Plan suggests religious leaders to read the eyes of oppressed people which may reveal Diary of thousand & thousand Anne Frank living in this World. Like little innocent Anne they are living in political cage & waiting for something to happen so that they can go back to their normal life.
JAPAN AND SUTH EAST ASIA
This plan would help these countries to combat corruption & crime and as a result of these economies will rise again. Religion movement would be able to bring peace & harmony in these societies. Students, civil societies and human right organizations must show resistance against these evil forces. Government agencies also may play supporting role by freezing accounts of illegal rackets.
Proposed Plan suggests religious groups to form strong united forum and must play significant role in Holy War. They may extend support in the form of financial assistance/legal assistance/technical assistance etc. Members of religious committee would show tough resistance (resistance does not mean violence) at ground.
Proposed Plan suggests Buddhist Communities to take active participation in the Holy War to ensure global peace for indefinite period of time.
AUSTRALIA AND NEWZELAND
This plan would help these countries to recover their economies and strengthen their stand for fighting against international blue film rackets. This plan would give these countries proper support so that they can take up the issue at International Court. Student community, civil societies and human right organizations must extend their proper support.
RUSSIA
This country is facing typical identity crisis. Clearly even with huge fire power in hand Russia does not match with former USSR. But they want same recognition from the world. During 1989-2009 in Russia, we can find good number of opulent persons in contrast to poverty and unemployment. Russia needs huge fund to modernize their old technology based industries and much needed diversification to overcome dependence on military weapon trading. This plan would give Government enough funds to modernize their old technology based industries on one hand & also to offer social security to common people on the other hand.
Hopefully this system along with religion may be able to channelize Russian manpower in proper direction which is essential for the benefit of human civilization.
Proposed Plan suggests religious groups to form strong united forum and must play significant role in Holy War. They may extend support in the form of political support/financial assistance/legal assistance/technical assistance etc. Members of religious groups would show tough resistance (resistance does not mean violence/war) at ground.
Proposed Plan wants active participation of Religious Communities in this Holy War for indefinite period of time.
CHINA
In recent part, we have observed unparallel growth of China. Typically this one communist party led country has been able to defeat major capitalist economies of the world. But this growth is not hassle free. Sudden influx of huge fund, mainly contributed by non resident Chinese, has created lot of problems in China.
This sudden influx of fund has resulted in corruption in China. Probably it has touched significant high level of the party. Perhaps this has created frustration among grass root workers resulting in tension in the party. Perhaps this localised growth has resulted in provincialism in China.
China may accept this plan which would help them to eradicate corruption from their system and to earn better economic growth rate.
ISLAMIC NATIONS
People belong to Islamic countries have been protesting against the current world political system for a long period of time. Now they are getting this plan which would be able to give their protest a constructive official base.
First, they may implement this system in their own countries.
In the next step they may make it a political issue at international level using OPEC. They must not go for adopting harsh decisions like increase in oil price, which would ultimately weaken the struggle of like-minded people for the same cause across the world.
They may use the OPEC platform to compel media to communicate their views (without criticizing any country rather highlighting the benefits of the alternative system & weakness of present system). Thus voice of crores of people would reach the world population.
Now they can raise the issue at suitable global platform like GAAT, UNO etc. Their fight for noble cause would help them to make good image in the mind of world population.
Apart from this these countries may help people fighting for the same cause in the follows:
(a) Financial help toward treatment and legal expenses of the poor.
(b) Other assistance in the legal battle like supply of documents and evidences.
(c) Giving shelter to those people who are in trouble.
(d) Maintain good relationship with other religious forces fighting for the same cause across the globe.
Proposed Plan suggests Islamic Countries to form strong united forum and must play significant role in Holy War. They may extend support in the form of financial assistance/legal assistance/technical assistance etc. Proposed Plan suggests Muslim Community to show tough resistance (resistance does not mean violence/war) at ground.
Proposed Plan wants active participation of Muslim Community in this Holy War for indefinite period of time.
LATIN AMERICA
This system would strengthen the fight of Latin American countries against mafias to protect their economies & natural resources. Further blessings of religion would be able to direct their family life, social life & culture in proper direction.
Proposed Plan suggests religious committees to form strong united forum and must play significant role in Holy War. They may extend support in the form of financial assistance/legal assistance/technical assistance etc. Members of religious committee would tough show resistance (resistance does not mean violence) at ground.
AFRICA
Africa has suffered the worst due to modern global politics. Big forces have exploited this land for their vested political interest. Ironically, global economy in the next century depends on the development of this land.
If African countries accept this system, they would be able to protect their economy, natural resources & would be able to fight against exploitation. Further practice of religion would bring peace in this region.
Proposed Plan suggests religious committees to form strong united forum and must play significant role in Holy War. They may extend support in the form of financial assistance/legal assistance/technical assistance etc. Members of religious committee would show tough resistance (resistance does not mean violence/war) at ground.
[ B]
Arrangement for Party Fund
Administrator: RBI & Election Commission of India
Probable Sources (sources must be transparent):
Government of India [On the basis of suitable allocation system-vote share, number of seats etc. (ISI, IITs, IIMs may be consulted)]
Industries /Partnership Firm/Ownership Business/Individual [contributors must get tax rebate]
Functions/road shows etc.
Selling of news papers/tickets etc.
Cash collection directly from public.
Contributions from NRIs
Fund from political parties of other countries (subject to approval of law)
This fund must be audited by CAG & the concerned auditor would be liable to go through LDT.
Audited report must be made to public
However parties have the complete authority/discretion regarding the distribution/allocation of fund (who gets what).
Insider trading must be made punishable [Secret information (political strategy etc.) can not be divulged to outsider.]
[C]
Arrangement of debate concerning problems of woman
Discussions, debates, seminars & research works must be carried out in the above mentioned field. Silence or acceptance of torturing would not reduce or eliminate the problem. Voices must be raised strongly at appropriate platforms, namely:
(a) Meetings of NGOs
(b) Party Meetings
(c) Panchayat/Municipality/Assembly/Parliament
(d) Lower Court/High Court/Supreme Court
(e) At International Platform for e.g. International Court/OPEC/GATT/UNO etc.
Debates/Discussions/seminars/workshops may be conducted in the following areas namely:
(1) Status of Women in the political parties across the globe.
(2) Status of women as perceived by the political parties.
(3) Role of Women leaders against Oppression on Women-A Reality Bite.
(4) `Oppression on Women’-Do we need more laws?
(5) `Oppression on Women’-How would you collect, preserve & produce evidences at the Court?(role of lie detectors)
(6) `Politics means oppression on Women’-How we would fight against this idea?
(7) `Oppression on Women’- Legal battle is not shame for the women but for the society.
(8) Increasing clutches of blue film in India-True role of political leaders?
(9) How did Indian politicians failed to address real causes of prostitution in India? [If we accept torturing of women of higher society as means of raising party fund then we have to accept prostitution at the lower level of the society. It signifies our complete failure to understand the causes of increasing prostitution like poverty, unemployment and corruption etc. behind prostitution]
(10) Women Entrepreneurship- encouraging woman at all levels.
[ D]
COMMUNAL HARMONY
Communal harmony is an integral part of the Proposed Plan. Sovereignty and integrity of our country depends on the cordial relationship among different communities. Evil forces would try their level best to create communal disharmony among different communities. BJP must try to coordinate different religions to re-establish religion in Indian society and also to fight against common enemy i.e. blue film rackets. Proposed Plan suggests BJP to take necessary steps to improve standard of living of the people belong to minority communities. Special emphasis may be given in the segments like human rights, education, health, alternative employment opportunities, Social Security Net(SSN), insurance coverage in agriculture, housing, entrepreneurship programmes supported by loan/financial assistance, training programmes for drop-out students etc. These programmes must ensure active participation of women.
Respected Holy Gurus of Sikh Community have sacrificed their life for religion and humanity. Proposed Plan suggests Sikh Community to play role of `Protector of Religion in India.’ People belong to other communities would protect Sikh community. Proposed Plan suggests Sikh Community to show tough resistance (resistance does not mean violence) at ground.
Proposed Plan wants strong active participation of Sikh Community in the Holy War for unending period of time.
[ E]
ROLE OF NGOS
Do constructive jobs.
Use international platforms (GAAT/OPEC etc.) because the blue film rackets use international platform to make money.
Take help of NGOs from other country (cross-border help).
File cases/play the role of catalyst for filing cases in foreign countries & try to pursue the use of lie detector as much as feasible.
Show your strength: collect signature/thumb impression of people and submit to appropriate authority (for e.g. President of India). At the same time show the results on internet. Send the same to International agencies. These activities may be carried on continuous basis.
If possible, offer financial help to poor women.
[F]
RELIGION AND POLITICS
In the first step, different regions must stop abusing and fighting against each other. Undesirable fighting among different religions ultimately weakens the fight for mankind.
All religions, religion based political parties, similar minded NGOs, human right organizations and media representative may form a committee having maximum global power in this segment. This committee may be constituted of one core committee, one committee for political parties and one committee for NGOs, human right organizations and media. This global committee will have similar branches in each country. Committee members must be selected strictly on the basis LDT to ensure purity and to protect the committee from unholy elements. This committee will be working for the benefit of human race for unending period of time.
NOW TREAT `FIGHT AGAINST BLUE FILM RACKETS AND OPPRESSON ON WOMEN’ AS `HOLY WAR AGAINST EVILS’.
How the committee would fight HOLY WAR on2010
At first, ensure communal harmony among different religions.
This would be fought at many levels, namely:
Show of strength.
Stiff resistance at ground, where possible.
Team of lawyers may be constituted of firms of international repute, firms operating at national & local level and just pass out young lawyers. In politically volatile cases young bachelor lawyers may be engaged but consultation would be taken from of senior lawyers. Lawyers may pursue to use lie detectors at Court.
Lawyers would be working for two objectives. At first attempt must be made to enhance the level of punishment and in case of compensation they must try to extract as much as possible. Present system is politically bankrupt and attempt must be made to make them financially bankrupt.
NGOs and human right organizations may be starting peaceful demonstrations in the streets and would take up the issue at appropriate level depending on the importance of the case.
Student unions would make it an issue and raise it using different techniques for e.g. wall magazines, magazines, journals, debates, conferences, meetings, street demonstrations etc.
Academicians would write articles in the news papers/ journals/ research work depending on the nature of the issue.
Political parties would make it a political issue and hold meetings/demonstrations etc. They would take up the issue at appropriate level i.e. Panchayat/Municipality/Assembly/Parliament.
Participating countries would raise the issue at international forums e.g. OPEC, GATT, UNO, ADB, IMF, WORLD BANKS etc.
Arrangement would be made to make so that the issue could be raised through media. If necessary, committee may start own news paper/radio channel/TV channel/website.
This issue would be faised through different form of arts e.g. in paintings/ poems/literatures/songs/mimes/dramas/jatras/cinemas etc.
If any political leader is found guilty the concerned person must be referred to as member of blue film racket. Effort must be made to isolate the person from the party (person must be targeted instead of party). However if concerned party wants to take responsibility, the issue must be settled at Court only.
If necessary, attempt must be made to make the issue alive for thousand & thousand years.
All documents relating to blue film must be destroyed. Participating countries may pass stringent laws for this purpose. In other countries pressure groups (as stated above) would start protesting.
Violence must be avoided. Violence would strengthen the hands of oppressors only. Strong, peaceful, planned, coordinated, global resistance supported by well designed legal battle would destroy the blue film rackets legally, financially & politically forever. In the next step, `Historical Document on Oppression on Women’ would be prepared, signed & approved by International Agencies. At last, legal decisions would be used to change the Constitutions of participating countries in such a way so that evil forces can be kept out of political, social & cultural scenarios forever.
This battle for justice, security & peace would continue forever.
Other activities of the Committee
Committee may form a central NGO to supervise NGOs in different countries. However, branch Committees may also form & supervise NGOs in their own country. Core Committee would ensure that NGOs will not overlap each other in the same segment.
In each country, a committee would be formed to rate the NGOs constituted of eminent personalities selected on the basis LDTs. Each year these members along with all employees of NGO would go through LDTs.
Each Committee would undertake various social welfare activities for e.g. blood donation camps, flood/drought relief camps, workshops to train farmers/workers, camps for free treatment of the poor, workshop to train young people at the time of emergency etc.
Committee would ensure maintenance family value, social value, culture and religion in the society. However, while playing the role of watchdog of society the Committee would make all efforts to avoid direct confrontation. Indirect control must be given priority to direct control. If problems arise due to controlling exercise the issue must be settled at Court with the help of LDT.
Committee would ensure implementation of morale & value based education system in the participating countries and if possible, through peaceful negotiations in other countries.
Committee would fight against `Direct/Indirect Oppression on Children’ as integral part of Holy War.
Committee would pursue all countries (participating/others) to implement `Right to Information Act’ in the respective countries. Further Committee would pursue International Agencies to pass necessary Act so that `Right to Information Act’ may be applied to International Documents.
Committee would ensure improved participation of women in global politics. It is suggested that minimum fifty of total seats may be reserved for women in each country at all political levels. At the same time Committee would commit to protect religion/culture/heritage of each country.
Committee would pursue participating/non-participating countries to take sufficient legal steps so that women may protect themselves. At the same time Committee would commit to protect religion/culture/heritage of each country.
Committee would pursue all countries to take necessary steps (opening of women undergraduate &postgraduate law college) to ensure more participation of women in global judiciary system.
Committee would play role of peaceful coordinator in resolving `Drinking Water Crisis’.
Committee would extent cooperation in making Global Food Plan.
Committee may extend necessary support to the political parties in order to play the role of pathfinder at the time of crisis.
Committee would continue to work for Global peace, cooperation, friendship and security forever.

BJP AND RELEVANT ISSUES
BJP and India
Present political bankruptcy and lack of general governance in India indicate probable danger on India’s integrity. This current system signifies dominance and oppression. It happens when existing parties in power come to power without proper political mandate. Nature of crime states that criminal commits more mistakes to cover one mistake. It applies to politics too. Hence this political system is a threat to India’s sovereignty.
First uphill task of BJP is to secure India. This plan does not have any aim to harm anybody. But this does not apply to the security of India. Security of a country must be given priority to every thing.
A country can not be secured leaving fifty percent population unsecured. Protection of women is intermingled with India’s security.
Poverty is also threat to India’s security. Foreign elements and evil forces take the advantage of the situation.
International relationship also influences security of a country. Perhaps this area also has been mishandled.
Another important aspect is image building of our country. World must perceive India as strong, united, secured, advanced & liberal country. On one hand India may take action if her security is threatened, on the other hand same India would extend support to all countries like friend in need.
India must not hesitate to take action against political forces operating from Indian soil against interest of our country.
BJP and Defence of India
Defence is the most crucial aspect of security of a country. Considering both from historical point of view and war experience in post independence India Defence segment may be given more importance. At the same time Defence purchases must be made more transparent as per feasible. In case of international purchase payment of brokerage/commission etc.(accepted norm in the seller’s country) must be made public. People responsible for such purchases would face LDT and results would be made public.
India must avoid arms race with any other country but India must have sufficient weapon to protect her country.
Overdependence on one vendor must be avoided. Manufacturing projects in India collaboration with vendor must be encouraged.
India must increase her presence in hitherto neglected defence based researches. A comprehensive plan must be framed taking into consideration relevant colleges, universities and research institutes.
India may increase her presence in this segment as seller. This volatile area must be dealt with proper care.
Defence segment is accident-prone area. In case accidents take place, proper enquiries must be organised (with the help of LDT).
BJP and People of India
India is a land of hundred crore people from different religions, castes and languages. India is a country of patience, tolerance and acceptance. It is a land where religion lives in the heart of people. Indian culture has protected Indians for thousand & thousand years. At the same time Indians have been able to protect their culture for thousand & thousand years.
Perhaps this is the land where people without any blood relation used to love each other. We have suffered several pains in this journey still we could protect our culture, civilization and religion up to 1947. Perhaps it is impossible for us to assess what we have lost after 1947?
People are living with pains in heart. Level of torturing is so high that they have forgotten their past. This system teaches to accept dominance and oppression. Even tears have forgotten to come out. One wave of torturing goes and the oppressed one waits for next wave of torturing. Arrangements have been made to break the families and have forced family members to stay isolated for getting oppressed. Political leaders & bureaucrats played participatory role in the system. Media kept mum and did nothing.
Proposed Plan suggests BJP leaders to read the eyes of oppressed people which may reveal Diary of thousand & thousand Anne Frank living in this country. Like little innocent Anne they are living in political cage & waiting for something to happen so that they can go back to their normal life.
Unfortunately this prolong torturing has not been noticed by either INDIAN MILITARY AND or INDIAN JUDICIARY.
BJP workers must be trained so that they can learn how to live in the same age without becoming an active member of the system. They would remember the level of torturing while approaching people. People are tensed, angry, frustrated & to some extent irrational. BJP workers may get irrational behaviour /resistance from people. BJP workers would respond softly with logical argument.
Two types management of people are suggested.
Macro Management of People : At highest level of party policymakers would frame the political philosophy & long run strategies. At the next level medium level strategies would be formed & long & medium level decisions would be taken. These two levels signify the brains of the party. These leaders must be relieved from all sorts of day to day administrative work. Arrangement must be made so that they can get professional advice from lawyers, chartered accountants, cost accountants, company secretaries, economists, statisticians, mathematicians, scientists and MBAs research institutions.
In this subcontinent religion lives in the heart of people. People perceive religion as protector at the time of crisis. Religion has immense influence on the social, cultural and personal life of people. Unfortunately unholy elements of blue film rackets have played the role of power brokers and have been successful in persuading people to some extent out of holy cover of religion.
This plan suggests a soft reintroduction of religion in social, cultural & political life. BJP must refrain from pursuing vigorous reintroduction of religion.
Sky gives protection and allows people to live their life freely. People do not perceive sky like a hammer but accept sky as lovable & beautiful cover. Proposed plan suggests a similar place of religion in the society. Religion would give a peaceful coverage on social, cultural and political life of people.
Temples may form NGOs to serve the need of people. Temples may have wing constituted of dedicated workers willing to serve people at the time of disaster. Organisations like Bharat Shebasrom, Ramakrishna Mission etc. may be encouraged through financial support. These two charitable institutions may be encouraged so that they play the role of trainer to develop dedicated social worker in NGOs/student communities/political parties etc.
Modern lifestyle causes tension & trauma among citizens. Religious institutions may open meditation/stress & trauma relief institutions.
BJP may encourage followers to attend prayers in the religious institutions at least once a week (Saturday/Sunday).
Dedicated Religious institutions may open educational /vocational/training institutions at all levels. These institutions would teach Board/University prescribed curriculum in morale, value, ethics and religion based framework.
Religious institutions may take initiative in social events like marriage, birth etc amongst the poor on regular basis.
Religious institutions may approach Government for playing participatory supportive role in resolving long run problems causing loss of lives & property for e.g. soil erosion/dam construction/forestation/pollution control/floods/drinking water problem etc. Religious workers may undergo training from Government to play the role of dedicated social worker in that segment. At the same time Government employees may be given stress relief & meditation exercises in morale & value based environment. This training may help Government sector employees to combat corruption.
Religious institutions may initiate excursion among student community to create interest for places having historical, cultural & heritage value.
Religious institutions may make arrangement for treatment of people belongs to low income group in all over India. Donations may be collected and used for expensive treatments for e.g. surgeries etc. of the poor.
Religious institutions may preach people stating the importance of women in Hindu religion (Goddess Kali/Goddess Durga).
Religious leaders may use poems/songs explaining the bravery & courage of ancestors for protecting women for e.g. Rani Padmini. Drama/jatra/cinema may be made based on such act of bravery. Religious leaders may promote this act of bravery using story/poems/songs in all over India (This is related to oppression on women & not communal).
Proposed plan gives strong emphasis on communal harmony. Communal disharmony would strengthen the hands of blue film rackets.
BJP may make arrangement of regular meetings of leaders from different religions to give the Proposed Plan a successful introduction.
Micro Management of People : At this level short term strategies would be framed and short term decisions would be taken. Leaders & workers belong to this level would act as eyes and ears of party. Proposed plan suggests reintroduction of locality based relationship for e.g. bore bhaia, dada, chacha etc.
Proposed plan suggests creation of friendly image of BJP workers in the mind of people. People must be able to perceive workers as friend in need e.g. water logging, illness, vaccination programmes, festivals, drinking water crisis etc.
Proposed Plan strongly suggests soft presence of BJP workers in the locality. BJP workers must behave gently with women even belong to opposition parties. They must be refrained from using abusive/offensive languages regarding women even within themselves. People must be able to differentiate BJP workers from other parties.
BJP and Women of India
Proposed Plan emphasizes on security, prestige& status of women in social & political system. Proposed Plan also pays attention to women education, right of women in family life & property, participation of women in the modernization process of society in the form of jobs, entrepreneurship, political leadership etc. Women have every right to get dignified place in every sphere of the society. Reintroduction of religion does not mean departure from modernization. This mission against `Oppression of Women in India’ must not turn to battle against `Right of women’.
Proposed Plan strongly recommends participation of women in the political process at all levels. It is suggested that fifty percent of total seats may be reserved for women at all levels (Panchayat/Municipality/Assembly/Parliament). In case of political resistance BJP must collect correct information about the concerned person/group. Proposed Plan strongly recommends stern action against that particular person/group in all forms for e.g. political/legal/financial etc. All party wings, NGOs, Human Right Organizations and lawyers must be mobilized against the concerned leader/group. Lawyers must pursue use of LDT at Court. This proposal is integral part of the Proposed Plan. BJP would pursue this issue globally.
Presence of women must be increased in Judiciary. BJP must establish law colleges for women in every state. These law colleges would operate under umbrella of one Central University. These colleges would get sufficient funding from Central Government.
Government must establish women training institutions for IAS examination in every state. These institutions must also provide training for RBI/SBI/CBI/IB examinations.
Government must provide adequate scholarships to the financially weak female candidates.
BJP may also extend support in the form of providing hostel facility, security and financial support.
In India few areas have not been explored by aspiring female job seeker. Security can not be accepted as a valid reason for keeping women out of certain job markets. Further, acceptance of security reason may lead to acceptance of women torturing. Except health reasons all jobs may be opened for female job seekers. However it is suggested that BJP may approach gradually in this segment.
In Hindu religion women are treated as source power and thus we worship Goddess Kali & Durga. Women must not be treated as weak & feeble. BJP must engage women wing for establishment of Yoga, Judo, Karate, Shooting and Boxing Training Institutes for women. Women Wings may use demonstrations/dharnas/ processions to show strength & resistance. Let five crore women take the streets of any troubled city through peaceful processions. BJP must pass adequate Acts so that women can keep & use guns for self protection. However after using guns concerned woman would face legal Case & LDT. Use of guns for self protection by women would not be punishable in the eye of law. BJP would make all efforts to make it a global issue.
Proposed Plan emphasizes a complete shift from the existing system. Under the proposed system women would have every right to get married to a person of her choice. Proposed Plan ensures safety, security, status and family value of married women. Proposed Plan also ensures successful marriage of engaged women with her desired partner. Under this Proposed Plan, unmarried bachelor women would have every right to have secured life. BJP must pass/amend necessary Act such that widow/old women can get security, shelter and share of property in family. BJP must mobilize all resources to make this issue a success.
BJP and Nuclear Power
Nuclear Power has power to protect the country and to prevent war. From historical, positional and political point of view India needs Nuclear Power. Efforts must be made to use Nuclear Power for peaceful purpose. Proposed Plan suggests safety and security of Nuclear Power Stations and Research Institutions.
In the history of human civilization atomic power has been used twice, in the Second World War. Except these two cases atomic explosion has been used on experimental/scientific purpose. Atomic power gives huge power to the Nuclear Weaponed country. The pertinent point is how this power has been used by respective countries in last sixty years? It concerns International Laws and human considerations. Proposed Plan leaves this area to researchers/politicians/media etc. for further study.
BJP and Education in India
An ideal education system teaches values and morale at the beginning. Children must be given proper opportunity so that they can learn the basics (Always speak the Truth; Do not tell a Lie; Honesty is the best Policy etc.). `BarnaParichoy ‘ written by Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar may be treated as an ideal book for this purpose. It is strongly suggested that similar books must be written and used in the curriculum in each Indian language. Character building of future generations is the basic objective of any valued education system. BJP must make an all out effort to make it a global system and would pursue use of similar books in all countries.
Students must get opportunity to learn Indian Culture and Heritage from the school level. No Nation can prosper neglecting their culture, heritage and past teachings. Culture makes the foundation of character. In future interested students may opt for several careers based on Indian Culture. At the same time it produces knowledgeable audience for the future cultural programmes.
Each educational institution must be connected to outside world. From the school level academic activities must be extended beyond boundaries of educational institutions & may find proper place in the society. Students must carry the morale/values taught in the educational institution to the outside world. Students must get adequate opportunity to serve the society for e.g. teaching the adult illiterates, teaching the housewives, teaching the children of the footpath dwellers, sharing of knowledge in employment generation programmes etc. Incentives may be provided to both recipient of knowledge and provider of knowledge depending on their income level.
Research works may be carried out to find out the proper reason of drop out at all levels in educational institutions in India. Existing schemes addressing the issue (mid-day meal) must continue. Interested & suitable students selected on the basis of some suitable criteria may be given scholarship for further studies. Vocational educational & training institutions must increase their activities by manifolds.
Science is the pillar of modern civilization. A country can not move forward undermining the relevance and importance of science. Religion does not have any dispute with science. Religion provides mankind morale, value and peace. Practice of religion must not lead to disbelieve in science & technology.
Special examinations (preferably on line) on National basis may be conducted four/five times a year which would help the science students to apply & assess their brain at all levels. Apart from this a new system may be introduced to search new talents. In such examinations students may be taught a completely new topic (may be unrelated to the subject) in the first hour of examination and in the following hour questions having new style would be served. In Board/University examination each paper must contain one question for assessing knowledge of the student (maximum ten mark in hundred marks question).
Students studying science at all levels must be allowed to go beyond curriculum through active participation in well equipped outside/inside laboratories. This system would encourage innovativeness/creativity from the beginning.
Diploma engineering colleges must be allowed to establish on the basis of suitable study. These colleges must be funded adequately to make them well-equipped. Diploma engineers usually work close to the workers. Hence they must be trained well in order to increase productivity of the factory.
All engineering colleges (including IITs), all medical colleges, all management institutions (including IIMs), ISI and all other premium institutions must work for one goal i.e. to uplift education standard in India gradually up to International Standard.
Students must get adequate scholarship facility at all level and educational loan facility at higher level of study.
Students studying Arts are advised to participate in suitable meaningful projects outside the premises of the institutions for e.g. students studying psychology may work among oppressed people/convicted people.
It is strongly recommended that `oppression on women in Indian politics/in the society’ must be included in Political Science or elsewhere in the syllabus. This is new in syllabus. Hence, suitable people from NGOs/Human Right Organizations and honourable members of judiciaries may be invited to take classes. Such arrangements may be made in Universities up to PhD level.
Students studying commerce must also participate in suitable outside projects.
Entrepreneurship would be part of curriculum from school level. Seminars/workshops/exhibitions etc may be arranged to encourage the students. Entrepreneurship Programmes would be tuned according to the different requirements of the students for e.g. technical aspect would be given priority to scientists/engineering students etc. Entrepreneurship Programmes would cover vocational colleges and training programmes for drop out students. Government would extend necessary support in the form of loans & financial assistance/technical assistance/infrastructural participation.
Disaster Management courses may be taught at school level/colleg
