Rich Tributes To P.P. Dr.Hedgewar From Unexpected Quarters

The visionary leadership quality of Dr.Hedgewar was highlighted by Sri Aaloor Shah Nawaz, Director of Documentary Films, in a seminar on the topic ‘Muslims – Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow’ held at Pallaptti in Karur District of Tamilnadu on 20th November 2010, organized by Uswa Library.
In his special address Sri Aaloor Shah Nawaz on ‘Foundation 2010, Goal 2050’ blamed the Muslims, particularly the Muslim leadership for having failed to notice the continuous struggle carried out by RSS to get a judgment in 2010 in respect of the Ayodhya dispute. He pointed out that Muslim leaders have failed to formulate action plans to counter the strategy of RSS. RSS has sown the seeds way back in 1942 itself by opening up Hindu schools and incorporating the epic of Rama in the curriculum and produced leaders to carry out their plans out of those who have internalized them. He questioned, ‘Do we have any one such leader like Hedgewar who could effectively plan and teach his followers of next generation to win? Is Hedgewar a real leader or are our leaders real?” 


He narrated that Hedgewar laid the base for RSS in 1925. When he started the Sangh he did not plan to become the Prime Minister nor did he plan to become the Chief Minister of Maharashtra nor aim for becoming a Ward Councillor in the next five years. He had the dream of a hundred years. He had a long term goal. In 1925 he sowed the seed, planned and worked for it. He taught the next generation the working system which gradually led to Vajpayee, an RSS trained in his generation becoming the Prime Minister in 1997. Sri Shah Nawaz lamented, “Do we find such leaders like Hedgewar in our community who could think for his progeny? Our leaders wish to reap for themselves what they have sown. They are anxious to taste power or administration in their own life. They wish to reap in excess of what they have invested.” He concluded that all the Muslim leaders wish to be kings and there is none like Hedgewar who was a ‘King Maker’


The function was chaired by Moulvi Mubarrack Basha Ullavi and presided by the former Member of Parliament Liyavutheen Sait and social worker Agsar Ali. The gathering was also addressed by Moulvi Mohammed Yousuf Davoo.

IT IS NOT OUT OF LOVE.....

One has to appreciate the compliments given by the Muslim leades at the seminarstated in the article regarding Dr Hedgewar. It is correct up to that point.There are certain aspects that have to be considered and these are :-

a.The leader appreciated the vision and organizational ability of Dr Hedgewar.

b. He did not compliment the Dr for RSS manifesto and its contents.He complimented him for the way he planned the action.

c. He cried that such person did not come up within Muslim community who could organize Mulsims toproduce more leaders.He did not mention whether such leaders should have been Progressive minded and not Community oriented with religious phobia.

d. Dr Sir Syed Ahmed Khan was highly educated and established Aligarh Muslim university in UP. He was also knighted by the English emperor. But this gentleman was the first person to sow the seed of partition in India when he stated that in a free India where govt is formed based on counting of heads, Muslims would never be able to come to power.This was the first step towards creation of Pakistan. He was not progressive. He was well aware that Muslims were minorities .At a later stage Poet Iqbal too coined partition idea. ThenMohad Ali Zinnah exloited to the core and realised Pakistan. Thus Muslims never tried to project leaders Except few who were ready to sail with Hindu majority community. Most of them were separtaists and wanted Pakistan.In contrast Dr Hedgewar never wanted Muslims to go away from India and foresaw equal oppertunities for all. However he did not succeed in his mission.

e. Unfortunately for most of the Mulsims religion came first and nation came later and it continues even today. Thanks to the fundamentalist Mullahs and Jihadis with in and outside this nation. The community has not woken up even now and clear division exists. Unless the community sheds religious frenzy they will never be able to throw suitable leaders in the country. Staunch Islamists consider the existing accomodating Muslim leaders who are members of Congress , BJP,parties as out casts and this happened with past President Abdul Kalam.

Thus it is seen that Muslim ledaer has lamented that his community failed to produce leaders in the community while Dr Hegdewar could do. The appreciation is not out of love towrads Dr Hegdewarji.
