The Rise of Jamaat-e-Islami and Bangladesh’s Political Turmo

Image
The Islamist group Jamaat-e-Islami (JeI) has emerged as a potent force, gaining ground at the expense of Khaleda Zia's Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP). JeI's growing influence is troubling for Bangladesh's socio-political fabric, as it reflects a rise in radicalism and a deepening sectarian divide. The party’s ascendancy has not only weakened the BNP but also challenged the authority of the interim government. Despite Yunus’ pro-western stance and international reputation, neither his government nor the Bangladesh Army has succeeded in curbing the unrest. The anti-Hindu violence, targeting minority communities, and attacks on workers affiliated with the Awami League are clear indicators of the law and

Brij Bhushan Responds to Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia Joining Congress, Alleges Long-Planned Strategy By HT News Desk | Edited by Lingamgunta Nirmitha Rao | Sep 07, 2024 10:52 AM IST In a swift reaction to wrestlers Vinesh Phogat and Bajrang Punia joining the Congress ahead of the upcoming Haryana assembly elections, Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, former Wrestling Federation of India (WFI) chief and senior BJP leader, accused the Congress of orchestrating the move. Speaking to the media on Saturday, Singh alleged that “the move began two years ago,” indicating a coordinated plan involving the wrestlers' protest against him. Singh referred to the accusations of sexual harassment made by the athletes as part of a larger political agenda driven by Congress. He pointed a finger at senior party leaders, particularly former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda, alleging that “Hooda wrote the script” behind the protest and subsequent events. The development comes just a day after the celebrated wrestlers, both of whom are Olympic medalists and have been at the forefront of the #MeToo movement in Indian sports, formally joined the Congress. Their entry into the party marks a significant shift in the political landscape ahead of the state elections, with both athletes having voiced their desire to effect change in the system. Bajrang Punia and Vinesh Phogat have been vocal critics of Brij Bhushan, leading nationwide protests and calls for his resignation from WFI. Their decision to join the Congress is seen by many as a strategic move to influence the political narrative in Haryana, where wrestling is a popular sport and the wrestlers enjoy massive public support. While Brij Bhushan's comments indicate a political rivalry that has been brewing over time, the Congress is expected to leverage the athletes' public support in their election campaigns, with both Phogat and Punia likely to play prominent roles in voter outreach. As the Haryana assembly elections draw nearer, this development adds further intrigue to the state's political atmosphere.

"ಪೊಲೀಸರು ನಮ್ಮ ಬಳಿಗೆ ಬಂದು ಪ್ರಕರಣವನ್ನು ನ್ಯಾಯಾಲಯದ ಹೊರಗೆ ಇತ್ಯರ್ಥಪಡಿಸುವುದು ಉತ್ತಮ ಎಂದು ಹೇಳಿದರು. ಅವರು ನಮಗೆ ಹಣ ನೀಡಿದರು ಮತ್ತು ನಾವು ಆರೋಪಗಳನ್ನು ಕೈಬಿಡಲು ಒಪ್ಪಿಕೊಂಡರೆ ಅವರು ಸಮಸ್ಯೆಯನ್ನು ಹೋಗಲಾಡಿಸುತ್ತಾರೆ ಎಂದು ಭರವಸೆ ನೀಡಿದರು" ಎಂದು ತಂದೆ ಮಾಧ್ಯಮಗಳಿಗೆ ಹೇಳಿಕೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ತಿಳಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ. . ಈ ಪ್ರಸ್ತಾಪದಿಂದ ತೀವ್ರವಾಗಿ ವಿಚಲಿತರಾದ ಪೋಷಕರು ಮೌನವಾಗಿರಲು ನಿರಾಕರಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ ಮತ್ತು ನ್ಯಾಯಯುತ ತನಿಖೆಗೆ ಒತ್ತಾಯಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಸಂತ್ರಸ್ತೆಯ ತಾಯಿ, “ನಮ್ಮ ಮಗಳಿಗೆ ನ್ಯಾಯ ಬೇಕು. ಇದು ಕೇವಲ ಒಂದು ಪ್ರಕರಣವಲ್ಲ - ಅಂತಹ ಭ್ರಷ್ಟಾಚಾರವನ್ನು ಮೇಲುಗೈ ಸಾಧಿಸಲು ಅನುಮತಿಸಿದರೆ, ಅದು ಇತರರನ್ನು ಇದೇ ರೀತಿಯ ಅಪರಾಧಗಳನ್ನು ಮಾಡಲು ಪ್ರೇರೇಪಿಸುತ್ತದೆ. ಸಾರ್ವಜನಿಕ ಆಕ್ರೋಶ ಮತ್ತು ಕಾನೂನು ಪರಿಣಾಮಗಳು ಆಪಾದಿತ ಲಂಚದ ಪ್ರಯತ್ನದ ಸುದ್ದಿಯು ವ್ಯಾಪಕ ಆಕ್ರೋಶವನ್ನು ಹುಟ್ಟುಹಾಕಿದೆ, ಕಾರ್ಯಕರ್ತರು, ಮಹಿಳಾ ಹಕ್ಕುಗಳ ಗುಂಪುಗಳು ಮತ್ತು ನಾಗರಿಕರು ಇಂತಹ ಗಂಭೀರ ಅಪರಾಧವನ್ನು ಮುಚ್ಚಿಹಾಕಲು ಪೊಲೀಸರು ಪ್ರಯತ್ನಿಸುವ ಸಾಧ್ಯತೆಯ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಕೋಪವನ್ನು ವ್ಯಕ್ತಪಡಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಅತ್ಯಾಚಾರ ಪ್ರಕರಣ ಮತ್ತು ಲಂಚದ ಆರೋಪಗಳೆರಡರ ಬಗ್ಗೆಯೂ ನಿಷ್ಪಕ್ಷಪಾತ ತನಿಖೆ ನಡೆಸಬೇಕು ಎಂಬ ಕೂಗು ಸಾಮಾಜಿಕ ಜಾಲತಾಣಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹರಿದಾಡುತ್ತಿದೆ. ಒಂದು ವೇಳೆ ಆರೋಪ ಸಾಬೀತಾದರೆ, ಸಂಬಂಧಪಟ್ಟ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಗಳ ಮೇಲೆ ಪರಿಣಾಮ ಬೀರಬಹುದು ಎಂದು ಕಾನೂನು ತಜ್ಞರು ಸಲಹೆ ನೀಡಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ವಿಶೇಷವಾಗಿ ಅತ್ಯಾಚಾರದಂತಹ ಸೂಕ್ಷ್ಮ ಪ್ರಕರಣದಲ್ಲಿ ನ್ಯಾಯಕ್ಕೆ ಅಡ್ಡಿಪಡಿಸಲು ಲಂಚವು ಗಂಭೀರವಾದ ಅಪರಾಧವಾಗಿದ್ದು, ಕ್ರಿಮಿನಲ್ ಆರೋಪಗಳಿಗೆ ಕಾರಣವಾಗಬಹುದು ಮತ್ತು ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಗಳನ್ನು ಅವರ ಸ್ಥಾನಗಳಿಂದ ವಜಾಗೊಳಿಸಬಹುದು. ಕ್ರಿಮಿನಲ್ ಕಾನೂನಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಪರಿಣತಿ ಹೊಂದಿರುವ ಪ್ರಸಿದ್ಧ ವಕೀಲರಾದ ವಕೀಲ ಶಾಲಿನಿ ಸೇನ್, "ಈ ಹಕ್ಕುಗಳು ನಿಜವೆಂದು ಕಂಡುಬಂದರೆ, ಇದು ಕಾನೂನು ಜಾರಿಯ ಗೊಂದಲದ ಸ್ಥಗಿತವನ್ನು ಪ್ರತಿಬಿಂಬಿಸುತ್ತದೆ. ನಾಗರಿಕರನ್ನು ರಕ್ಷಿಸುವ ಮತ್ತು ನ್ಯಾಯವನ್ನು ಎತ್ತಿ ಹಿಡಿಯಬೇಕಾದ ಪೊಲೀಸರು ಅವರ ಅಧಿಕಾರವನ್ನು ಈ ರೀತಿ ದುರ್ಬಳಕೆ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಳ್ಳಲು ಬಿಡುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ಪ್ರತಿಕ್ರಿಯೆ ಆರೋಪಗಳಿಗೆ ಪ್ರತಿಕ್ರಿಯೆಯಾಗಿ, ಕೋಲ್ಕತ್ತಾ ಪೊಲೀಸರು ಸಂಕ್ಷಿಪ್ತ ಹೇಳಿಕೆಯನ್ನು ನೀಡಿದ್ದಾರೆ, ಯಾವುದೇ ತಪ್ಪನ್ನು ನಿರಾಕರಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ವಕ್ತಾರರು, “ತನಿಖೆ ಮುಂದುವರೆದಿದೆ ಮತ್ತು ನಾವು ಕಾನೂನು ಪ್ರಕ್ರಿಯೆಯನ್ನು ಅನುಸರಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದೇವೆ. ಲಂಚ ಅಥವಾ ಭ್ರಷ್ಟಾಚಾರದ ಯಾವುದೇ ಆರೋಪಗಳನ್ನು ಗಂಭೀರವಾಗಿ ಪರಿಗಣಿಸಲಾಗುವುದು ಮತ್ತು ಕೂಲಂಕುಷವಾಗಿ ತನಿಖೆ ನಡೆಸಲಾಗುವುದು. ಈ ಅಧಿಕೃತ ನಿಲುವಿನ ಹೊರತಾಗಿಯೂ, ತನಿಖೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಸಾರ್ವಜನಿಕ ನಂಬಿಕೆಯು ಈಗಾಗಲೇ ರಾಜಿಯಾಗಿದೆ. ಪ್ರಕರಣದಲ್ಲಿ ರಾಜ್ಯ ಸರ್ಕಾರ ಮಧ್ಯಪ್ರವೇಶಿಸಿ ಪಾರದರ್ಶಕತೆ ಕಾಪಾಡುವಂತೆ ಒತ್ತಡ ಹೆಚ್ಚುತ್ತಿದೆ. ಸ್ವತಂತ್ರ ತನಿಖೆಗೆ ಕರೆ ದುಷ್ಕೃತ್ಯದ ಆರೋಪಗಳು ಹೆಚ್ಚಾಗುತ್ತಿರುವುದರಿಂದ ಸ್ವತಂತ್ರ ತನಿಖೆಗೆ ಬೇಡಿಕೆಗಳು ಹೆಚ್ಚುತ್ತಿವೆ. ಪ್ರಕರಣವನ್ನು ವಿಶೇಷ ತನಿಖಾ ತಂಡಕ್ಕೆ (ಎಸ್‌ಐಟಿ) ಹಸ್ತಾಂತರಿಸಬೇಕು ಅಥವಾ ನ್ಯಾಯಾಂಗವು ಹಸ್ತಕ್ಷೇಪ ಅಥವಾ ಪಕ್ಷಪಾತವಿಲ್ಲದೆ ನ್ಯಾಯವನ್ನು ನೀಡುವಂತೆ ನೋಡಿಕೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕು ಎಂದು ಅನೇಕ ಕಾರ್ಯಕರ್ತರು ಒತ್ತಾಯಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ರಾಷ್ಟ್ರೀಯ ಮಹಿಳಾ ಆಯೋಗವೂ (ಎನ್‌ಸಿಡಬ್ಲ್ಯು) ಪ್ರಕರಣದ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಗಮನ ಸೆಳೆದಿದ್ದು, ಪೊಲೀಸರಿಂದ ವಿವರವಾದ ವರದಿಯನ್ನು ಕೇಳಿದೆ. ಎನ್‌ಸಿಡಬ್ಲ್ಯೂ ಅಧ್ಯಕ್ಷೆ ರೇಖಾ ಶರ್ಮಾ, “ನಾವು ಪ್ರಕರಣವನ್ನು ಸೂಕ್ಷ್ಮವಾಗಿ ಗಮನಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದೇವೆ ಮತ್ತು ಸಂತ್ರಸ್ತೆಯ ಕುಟುಂಬಕ್ಕೆ ನ್ಯಾಯ ಸಿಗುವಂತೆ ನೋಡಿಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತೇವೆ. ಅವ್ಯವಹಾರಗಳು ಕಂಡುಬಂದಲ್ಲಿ ಅಗತ್ಯ ಕ್ರಮ ಕೈಗೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತೇವೆ' ಎಂದರು. ಮುಂದೆ ರಸ್ತೆ ಕೋಲ್ಕತ್ತಾ ವೈದ್ಯೆಯ ಅತ್ಯಾಚಾರ ಪ್ರಕರಣವು ಬಲಿಪಶು ಎದುರಿಸಿದ ಆಘಾತವನ್ನು ಎತ್ತಿ ತೋರಿಸಿದೆ ಮಾತ್ರವಲ್ಲದೆ ಕಾನೂನು ಜಾರಿಯಲ್ಲಿನ ವ್ಯವಸ್ಥಿತ ಸಮಸ್ಯೆಗಳ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಸಂಭಾಷಣೆಯನ್ನು ತೆರೆದಿದೆ. ಅತ್ಯಾಚಾರ ಪ್ರಕರಣವನ್ನು ನಿಗ್ರಹಿಸಲು ಲಂಚದ ಆರೋಪಗಳು ನ್ಯಾಯವನ್ನು ಹುಡುಕುವಾಗ ಬಲಿಪಶುಗಳು ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯವಾಗಿ ಎದುರಿಸುವ ಸವಾಲುಗಳ ಕಠೋರವಾದ ಜ್ಞಾಪನೆಯಾಗಿದೆ. ತನಿಖೆ ಮುಂದುವರಿದಿದ್ದು, ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಗಳು ಕೈಗೊಳ್ಳುವ ಮುಂದಿನ ಕ್ರಮಗಳತ್ತ ಎಲ್ಲರ ಕಣ್ಣು ನೆಟ್ಟಿದೆ. ಪೊಲೀಸರ ಲಂಚದ ಆರೋಪಗಳನ್ನು ನಿಷ್ಪಕ್ಷಪಾತವಾಗಿ ತನಿಖೆ ಮಾಡಲಾಗುತ್ತದೆಯೇ? ಮತ್ತು ಮುಖ್ಯವಾಗಿ, ಬಲಿಪಶು ಮತ್ತು ಆಕೆಯ ಕುಟುಂಬಕ್ಕೆ ಅವರು ಅರ್ಹವಾದ ನ್ಯಾಯವನ್ನು ಪಡೆಯುತ್ತಾರೆಯೇ? ಒಂದು ವಿಷಯ ಖಚಿತವಾಗಿದೆ: ಸಾರ್ವಜನಿಕರು ವೀಕ್ಷಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾರೆ, ಮತ್ತು ಕಂಬಳಿಯ ಅಡಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಪ್ರಕರಣವನ್ನು ಗುಡಿಸುವ ಯಾವುದೇ ಪ್ರಯತ್ನವು ಮತ್ತಷ್ಟು ಆಕ್ರೋಶವನ್ನು ಹೆಚ್ಚಿಸುತ್ತದೆ. ಈ ಬ್ಲಾಗ್ ಕೋಲ್ಕತ್ತಾ ವೈದ್ಯರ ಅತ್ಯಾಚಾರ ಪ್ರಕರಣದ ಇತ್ತೀಚಿನ ಬೆಳವಣಿಗೆಗಳನ್ನು ಬೆಳಕಿಗೆ ತರುತ್ತದೆ, ತನಿಖೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಸಾರ್ವಜನಿಕ ನಂಬಿಕೆಯನ್ನು ಅಲುಗಾಡಿಸಿರುವ ಪೊಲೀಸ್ ಲಂಚದ ಗಂಭೀರ ಆರೋಪಗಳನ್ನು ಬಹಿರಂಗಪಡಿಸುತ್ತದೆ.
