Dharmayudha in West Bengal : Sandeshkhali, Cut Money and Appeasement Politics Satya Samvad EP3

Rajiv Malhotra's Podcast

In the third episode of Satya Samvad, Dr. Mrittunjoy Guha Majumdar talks to Shri Shishir Bajoriaji, prominent industrialist and political leader (BJP) in West Bengal, on the civilizational battle underway in West Bengal today. Bengal has been a civilizational pillar of Bharat since times immemorial. In the Mahabharata, references to Anga and Vanga abound. Hindu Bengali dynasties such as the Palas and Senas attained heights of glory with Dharmapala even holding an imperial court at Kannauj. After the devastating raids by Muhammad Ghori's general Bakhtiyar Khilji, which also led to the destruction of Nalanda, the Bengal Sultanate in Lakhnauti was established in 1202 AD, even as Hindu kings kept up a fierce resistance for years ahead from other parts of Bengal. Hindus in Bengal kept advancing their cultural and spiritual heritage. Raghunatha Shiromani, a leading Indian philosopher and logician, who hailed from Nabadwip in West Bengal, elevated Navya Nyāya philosophy to unparalleled heights under Vāsudeva Sārvabhauma's guidance. The Nath tradition in Bengal evolved with the influences Yoga, Tantra and Saiva-Agama traditions, the last of which had reached its pinnacle in the Pala age. Today, West Bengal is reeling from uber-partisanship, socio-cultural deracination, archaic endowments of the British Raj, syndicate politicking and appeasement politics. Be it Sandeshkhali, the cash-for-jobs scam or brazen Hinduphobia, the current government of West Bengal has reached alarming levels of moral, political and financial corruption.

Bajoria Group, overseeing diverse ventures with an annual turnover of US$330 million, including specialized refractories and insurance services.
