To create a Judicial Forum for entertaining
complaints of violations of any rightof the citizens / voters
and for its prompt determination and providing the necessary
relief. Such Forum has to be created for each constituency
which must be empowered to declare an election void and
to direct fresh election.
In conclusion, I would beg of Your Excellency to kindly
realise that I am not fighting for a particular Political
Party for gain of my Party which I lead, but for the protection
of the rights of the citizens / voters and also to make
the State realise its responsibilities and duties towards
the citizens / voters and impartially bear the same. I am
finding myself helpless in the present situation, where
the democratic and political system of our country is not
in a position to guarantee the Constitutional provisions
as embodied in our Constitution prepared by Dr. B. R. Ambedkar.
Your Excellency, I have been in politics since my childhood,
but the ongoing happenings in my own state hangs my head
down in shame, that I belong to the State, which has produced
to the Nation and World - Swami Vivekanda, Kabiguru Rabindranath
Tagore, Raja Rammohan Roy, Iswar Chandra Vidyasagar, Netaji
Subhash Chandra Bose, Kazi Nazrul Islam and Acharya Jagadish
Chandra Bose was born. The heritage and culture of our State
towards women is always of a high standard, where we always
consider women as mother and sister but the series of reported
cases of mass rape in every hour in the State has tarnished
the cultural image of our State as well as our country.
To my mind, the time has come to think seriously for the
justification and reasonability to continue my public life
unless the situation improves and the common men of my State
gets justice from the democratic system. I am committed
to the cause of the common man and shall not hesitate to
take leave from public life without providing natural justice
to them.
Considering this dangerous situation as narrated above,
may I, on behalf of my Party, plead with Your Excellency
and the Government of India to take appropriate measures
so that the Election processes are not blatantly misused
and anti-constitutional malpractices so far adopted by the
CPI(M) ruled State Government in West Bengal could be stopped
and the Constitutional Rights of the citizens of West Bengal
are protected. With highest regards and thanks to Your Excellency.
Respected Rashtrapatiji,,
I would like to invite your kind attention to the news item
as it appeared in the various newspapers (copy of which
is enclosed) regarding the Report submitted by the Special
Observer for West Bengal, Afzal Amanullah, after the 2004
Lok Sabha Election.
The report pointed out that the entire exercise for the
14th Lok Sabha Election in West Bengal was “a farce”
and the ruling CPI(M)’s belligerent behaviour and
the obstacles put up by key figures in the State Administration
came in the way of creating a level playing field for holding
a free and fair poll in the State. Thus it is evident that
the CPI(M) led Left Front Government in West Bengal have
become masters in the ‘Art of Rigging elections’,
indulging in State sponsored terrorism, choking the voice
of the people, making a mockery of the democratic process
and shamelessly snatching the electoral rights of the citizens.
We shall be obliged if you kindly intervene, so that the
Report submitted by Afzal Amanullah be made in public.
With highest regards and thanks to Your Excellency.
