Hi Hi...nice

All communist co-workers, just for cheap publicity and media attn. What a comparison budda and modi. What Modi did? He uses the force to control the riots.
Riot erupted after radicals killed 59 people. Here Budda sent his men with modern arms and ammunition to kill poor villagers.
Since last one year thousand of people missing. Girls and women%u2019s are brutally gang raped and killed. Many burned alive and buried. Many men are still missing. Media complete blocked out of Nandigram. No opposition or social activists allowed visiting.
Where was all this CPM s publicity agents hiding until now?

Shame to hear if some one projects you all intellectuals. So what we call real Intellectuals - fools?

The intellectuals of Kolkata protested against the Nandigram issue but no one of them ever visited Nandigram in the last 1 year to stand by those who were forcefully evicted,murdered,harassed,raped and fined heavily (even for tilling their own land) just they were supporters of the CPIM.The crocodile tears shed today (14.11.2007) were absent for the past one year.Is this protest just to be on the front page of newspapers and footage on television.Why these intellectuals with their intellect brain did not take any proactive stand to stop this violence that was going on for the last 1 year.

When entire calcutta, along with the left protested of what was done in Iraq, did they visit Iraq first. Dont raise technical questions. The shameless act needed a public protest and people of Bengal did it. Hats off.

More than a lakh of people were presnt in todays procession. It was silent procession, totally without any political colour, politcal leadership. This is probably the first time in independent India that such a huge apolitcal rally has come out

Please add some more to your knowledge of history. A much larger number had joined Late Utpal Dutta and many others during the severe food crisis in Africa. It was an apolitical procession of intellectuals in this city itself raising funds for the children of Africa. This is just one example. And one more will you see tommorrow when more than double the number you have mentioned will gather with Soumitra Chattopadhyay and Sunil Gangopadhyay to protest the atrocities of TMC and Maoists in Nandigram and hail the struggling peasants who have returned home after 11 months.

you politicized again... yes i do know that the number tomorrow will be more.. it can be double, triple ... but everyone knows the difference. Common man coming on their own urge out of frustration and matador and lorry filled people picked up from entire state always has a difference. This goes true for all, not only lefts, right green blue all are same in that respect. Head count in a political meet DOES NOT COUNT.

Do you know Soumitra Chattopadhay - who has opennly said that he supports the home coming of the poor peasants after 11 months albeit by whatever measure? Do you know Sunil Gangopadhay who has asked why the blokage in Nandigram was kept alive by TMC and Maosists for 11 months. Do you know an economist called Amartya Sen who has openly proclaimed that industries should be built on agricultural land. As far as I know, Mr Sen has a better understanding of developement Economics than Aparna Sen (with due respect to her.)

Some more questions should have been asked.. what was govrnment doing in past 11 months. If this is going on in a place for last 11 months whats the success of the govt in that state.

we just dont need token protest, we need to wake up a shameless government led by Buddhu Babu n a spine less prime minister Manmohan Singh.. Shocking, when the people in the country are buchered in the name of Communist idelogies, the Prime Minister is travelling to Russia to discuss bi lateral issues and Nucleaur Deal with US. Dr. Singh please first make ur house in order before thinking over Neighbours.

Hon'ble Judges of the Calcutta High Court for god sake please intiate a suo motto enquiry into Nandigram and prosecute all the guilty... Pls. do take action and quick action, people are at your mercy with a shameless Legislature, Spineless Executive...

My dear Amitava,

We are losing track of the moot issue - what was the state administration doing?
Was there a break down of administration machinery? If so, then wasn't the Governor right in admonishing the administration (much to the dislike of the political parties)
And... if not, is this proper administration?

Intellectuals and their facade face.
by samir banerjee on Nov 14, 2007 06:24 PM  | Hide replies

These were the people till the other day used to
dance along with Left in Congress bashing.What went wrong.I will not believe that a place called :NANDIGRAM: has suddenly awaken their
slleping moral.Whatever one may say there is no doubt that Budhababu is very much culturally
literate APARNA OR NO APARNA.These masked commu
nist(Intellectuals) know no less than others
that the CMP Caders are to day out of control
gaining the fruit of power for so many years.
Budhababu will NEVER support brutality in any form becouse he is not masked communist and have
nothing to hide.His fault is that unlike Joytibabu he want West Bengal to rise in economy
through Industry.First Singur and now Nandigram
HE made it clear that there will be no economic
development in Nandigram but still the so called
BVhumiandolon group are militant.There is no doubt thet NAXAL did infiltrate and overtly went
ion connivence with these group of Bhomoandolon
and created terrorism.Why cant these intellectuals join hand and ask people to resist
uncalled for BANDH day in and Day out.I am not
a communist but I support Budhababu in his persuit for West Bengal economic development.

I'm not sure if you got my point.
It's always better to protest against a overspeeding driver, than protesting against him after he commits the accident.

Does it make any sense?

Dancing with the Left does not mean that everyone will become partners in Buddhababu's crimes. Moreover, whatever has been happening in Nandigram for the last 11 months only mark the failure of the state administration. It comprises suffering of the CPM and also the non-CPM supporters. Buddhababu intellectualism is just a facade because he cannot rise above his party. He is a CM of CPM and not of West Bengal. We are sad because this is not the Buddhababu we have been seeing for years. This is not the same person who had quit Jyoti Basu government calling it a team of contractors. Thank God they were killers like the ones present in today's ministry

last election was held under central force and central officers. Even Mamata declared that elections have been free and fare and she was confident of victory. The result - CPM gained 25% more seats. This only shows that opposition parties used to rig 25 % votes earlier.
