UPA Changed more than 4 decade old Kendiya Vidyalaya logo as it has Lotus (BJP's symbol)

In a move that touches the pit’s bottom, the UPA government has changed the emblem of the Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan from Lotus and shining Sun to Cross and Crescent. Ironically this symbol was approved when congress was in govt and no body had ever thought that there will be a political party in India having lotus as symbol. And this has been done in the name of “broader reflection of national ethos.”



Please check this on sangathan's website http://kvsangathan.nic.in/


Earlier as we all familiar used to be as below:




The Board of Governors of KVS in its 79th meeting held on 26.6.2008 approved the new logo and a circular was sent to all the offices and schools of the Sangathan on July 17, 2008, to change the emblem in all the publications and communications. Though the chairman of KVS, HRD Minister Arjun Singh did not attend the meeting, the minutes of the meeting stated that the emblem has been approved by the chairman. His deputy Shri Md Ali Ashraf Fatmi, Minister of State, HRD & Deputy Chairman, was also not present at the meeting. The circular issued by the Asst. Commissioner (Acad I), KVS, said “in order to give a broader reflection of national ethos and ought (sic) to be inclusive of challenges, opportunities, rationalistic, scientific and global thinking, advances in science & technology and social changes taking place in the society” (sic) the new emblem has been created.The picture shows a book with blank pages, and apparently two human forms emerging from globe. The crescent (an Islamic symbol) and two crosses and stars (Christian) are obvious (see the 1st picture above - new logo).


Kendriya Vidyalaya, a system of Central government schools for children of employees of India's central government was established in 1965. Initially it was called "Central School" (reason was exactly as mentioned above). The name change from "Central School" to "Kendriya Vidyalaya" was a part of the drive to make it more Indian which we can back with the facts that it also lead to a lot of the syllabus becoming more Sanskrit and pure Hindi based, with options for students to take Social Studies in Hindi or English, which was not during initial years of establishment. The Sanskrit prayers and higher level of Hindi curriculum was a part of the same drive which included the change of names in official titles such as Syndicate becoming Sangathan and so was the names of houses within schools.

So why suddenly HRD ministry lead by Mr. Arun Singh has realized that everything done was wrong.

A UPA government also released coins of Rs 2 denomination with cross on them.

Coining term “Hindu Terrorism”- vote politics of Congress+ (UPA) mostly will play boomerang

"We never used the term Muslim Terrorism. Instead we used to call that Jehadi Terrorism. However, some people have coined a new term Hindu Terrorism to appease some people and garner votes during elections" - BJP National spokesperson Ravi Shankar Prasad.

Remember 2004 diwali, Swami Jayendra Saraswati was arrested while performing puja from Shankara math in Kanchipuram. The secular (silent: pseudo) world (read Congress+) celebrated victory of law and constitutional propriety. When nothing was proved, all the chargesheets turned bunkum. SC gave a verdict favouring the swami’s release on bail, but no one retracted the strong, often abusive words used for the Hindu monk. It was met with silence as if nothing important had happened.

One Krishna Janmashtami night, another ochre-robed reformist monk, Swami Lakshmanananda, was murdered along with an aged Hindu nun, Ma Bhaktimoyee, in his ashram.

Last year too the 2006 Malegaon blasts were blamed on Hindus. Later the agencies proved they were done by SIMI.

This time again Hindus are labelled "Terrorists". Why media forgot 60+ people who were killed by Muslims extremists in Assam and concentrating on Malegaon? Why people suddenly forgot Afjal guru? Why we have no series of debates on Muslaims being involved with terrorism for last 240 blasts (killing thousands) which happened in our country in last decade?


Suppose anyone starts a ’Support Pragya Fund’ how many Hindu saints and ashrams leaders would come with helping hands? Doesn’t she deserve help and support till proved innocent?

Unlike the innocent little Jamia students of the university’s vice chancellor, who were arrested from the area of the Batla House encounter, Pragya was in Surat, giving a religious discourse when the Malegaon blasts occurred in September. Remember, this is same Univ which gets a large amount of Saudi grants, and which thought it appropriate to honour a Muslim painter whose nudes of Hindu gods and goddesses. The same Jaa-Mia's VC, in a display of public affection for those students arrested for treason by a Congress government, declared that he will fund their 'struggle' as they are his 'children' and they would be considered innocent till proved guilty.

The same(hippocrate) secular world applauded his decision as bold and highly moral.

The term 'Hindu terrorism' looks so attractive to secularists. Proof, evidence, and final acquittal may take year. But the articles, front page edits, condemnations, further isolation, and cornering of the saffron side, would help someone. MOST IMPORANT IS THAT "IT IS SELLABLE". SO WHT NOT TO SELL IT!

If we not act now, then who will?

One thing is sure, this will act as boomerang to dear UPA and their vote banks as it happened in after 1992 event.

एकदम अस्पस्ट है शायद इस देश में धर्म - निरपेक्षता नामक जूमला सिर्फ़ अल्पसंख्यको की हिमायत के लिए ही बना है! हिंदू धर्म की भावनाओं पर धार्मिक स्वतंत्रता लागु नहीं होती! एक साध्वी के बयानों पर उसे यातनाएं दी जा -रही हैं, जबकि दिल्ली की जामाँ-मस्जिद से देश के खिलाफ बगावत कराने के फतवा जरी कराने वालों के खिलाफ, क्या आजतक कोई कारवाही ऐसी की गई जैसी की साध्वी के ख़िलाफ़ की गई! शायद हमारे देश में धर्म -निरपेक्षता का यही मायने है! ज्वलंत और प्रेरक प्रतिक्रियाएं दे, अन्यथा हमेशा की तरह जिन्दुओं को कमजोर सोंचा जाएगा! हर हर महादेव !!
