Sabka Bharat
A National Campaign
Today
the threat to our Nation is clear and imminent. The enemy isn’t
external but internal; It is physical with an abstract and powerful
ideology. The enemy is about destroying everything that we hold dear
about the idea of India, its diversity, it’s inclusiveness, big
heartedness and its incredibleness.
Today we are in danger of losing our freedom and sense of equality and belongingness of
being one nation. There is hatred, discord and divisiveness, being
spread like poison. The rule of Law has been overtaken by mob violence
and the powerful have become indestructible.Today divisions within the country are being created which will haunt our children’s children for years to come.
Sabka Bharat
is conceived as a campaign by ordinary people to stand against these
forces, whose abstract ideas for a Hindu nation is being pushed through a
political agenda as well as a social agenda. The BJP/RSS have a clear
focus that this nation should become a Hindu nation founded on the
principles of the Manusmriti. Though the reality is some distance off,
the methods and focus is undeniably evident. If it’s not checked now, it
is only a matter of time that this will be a reality.
Sabka Bharat aims at bringing people of India to come together to safeguard this nation and the Indian Constitution that we all hold dear. The
call is to every thinker, reformer, non-government organization and
activist, who have over the years worked tirelessly to protect the
ideals of the Constitution.
This
call is for ordinary citizens to take a stand. Fence sitting is not an
option. Clear battle lines have been drawn between an India governed by
the universal principles enshrined in the Constitution or a nation
defined by the Manusmriti. We cannot afford not to choose.
We
call upon you as fellow Indians, to stand and fight for the soul of
this nation. The threat is clear and present. We need you to rally and
stand for the Idea of India as birthed by the blood of our fathers.
