India Using Nazi Invasive Tactics against Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bangladesh

Nepal’s constitution has triggered Nazi action, particularly, Operation Himmler, from India, again. At the same time, India uses same Nazi action against Sri Lanka, to change the Sri Lankan Constitution to appease Indian ethnic communities living in Sri Lanka. This repetitive behaviour of India is the same conduct Nazi Germany followed to invade Poland, Austria, Czechoslovakia, Switzerland, etc. The world must stop such invasive interference based on ethnicity. Protection of a nation’s ethnic groups rests with that nation. If any external party is unhappy with the rights of a minority ethnic group due to its presence in that external country as well, awarding them citizenship and taking them in are better tactics.
Operation Poomalai Equals Operation Himmler
In early 1939, minority ethnic Germans were attacked in Poland and their houses torched, allegedly by the majority community of Poland. According to Germany, they were tolerated by the Poland government. On September 1, 1939, a German language radio station, Gleiwitz in the border of Germany-Poland was attacked by Germans posing as Poles. Claiming to protect the German minority in Poland from attacks by Poles, Germany invaded Poland (Fall Weiss) initiating WW2. Similar claims were made against Austria and Czechoslovakia in 1938 and Germany invaded them.
Germany followed the same tactic against Switzerland. A pan-German plan called for the unification of all Germans into a Greater Germany on the basis of ethnic German people’s right to self-determination. However, this plan failed as German leaders realised the horrors that awaited minority Germans if they invaded Switzerland. Switzerland skilfully managed its domestic and foreign relations to stump Germany.
Imperial Japan used the same logic to justify the invasion of Manchuria.
One would have thought these Nazi tactics died with WW2. They didn’t. They reincarnated in India. Having trained, armed, protected and financed Tamil terrorists since late 1970s, India claimed Tamil civilians were besieged in Jaffna peninsular due to Sri Lanka’s Operation Liberation in 1987. Using this as a cover, India invaded Sri Lanka’s airspace in late May 1987 ostensibly to help Tamils. It was called Operation Poomalai – meaning flower garland according to the South Indian language Tamil. It was nothing but the reincarnation of Operation Himmler.
Without stopping at that, India invaded Colombo and forced the government to sign the Indo-Lanka Peace Accord that imposed the 13A to the Constitution and restricted Sri Lanka’s right of self-determination. Instead, it imposed a pan-Indian and pan-Tamil right of self-determination extending to South Indian ethnic communities living in Sri Lanka. As with the original Operation Himmler, its second version was also tolerated by the international community, unwilling to intervene. Unfortunately, unlike Germany, these Indian impositions have not been shaken off.
Nepal and Bangladesh
India justified its interference with Nepal citing concerns of minority ethnic groups in Nepal – Madhess and Janjati – that are found in larger numbers in India. According to India and these minority groups, the new Nepal Constitution hurts the Madhesis and Janjatis. India demanded seven (7) amendments to the Nepali constitution ostensibly to protect interests of these minority groups. Thankfully, Nepal has so far resisted to Indian Operation Himmler.
Nepal’s constitution is Nepal’s business and not India’s. If India is genuinely concerned about Madhesis and Janjatis in Nepal, India should grant them Indian citizenship and settle them in India. Otherwise let Nepal handle its own internal affairs. Nepal needs a constitution for Nepal and not India. There can be no justification for the interference in purely domestic affairs of Nepal. Similarly, India interfered with Bangladesh. India’s conduct is the reincarnation of Nazi tactics in Poland, Austria and other independent countries in Europe prior to WW2.
Top democracies including USA, UK, France, Germany, Canada and Australia don’t grant special rights to minorities. The success of these countries speaks volumes of how to draft a constitution and how not to draft one.
Minorities Deserve Nothing More than What UN Charters Specify
UN Human Rights Charter and the charter to protect minorities and indigenous peoples specify the ways and means to protect minorities. Beyond those specifications, there is no requirement to appease minorities. Just because a minority ethnic group in a country happened to have relatives in India or Nazi Germany doesn’t necessitate special constitutional provisions to look after their interests.
For instance, there is absolutely no requirement to make Tamil language an official or national language of Sri Lanka. No UN Charter requires Sri Lanka to do so. On the contrary, in 1956 an overwhelming majority of voters decided Sinhala language must be the only official language and that must stand. Further, there is no UN Charter calling for devolution of power to minority groups. As such, Sri Lanka must not do so.
Veering away from the minimum specified in UN Charters endangers and trespasses into the rights of the majority and dilutes the right of self-determination of an independent nation.
Indian Patchwork Model Inappropriate
Indian ethnic patchwork model is not the best governance form the world has. In fact, most countries that followed it ended up disintegrated. The Soviet Union and Yugoslavia followed similar patchwork unions and they can only be found in museums, not on a world map. Even India’s continuation as a single nation is in grave doubt as multiple erosions have already disintegrated British India.
Many leaders of Indian states that were independent even under British rule protested the formation of India and some preferred suicide than joining India. Modern patchwork union of India is built on the suicides of its minority leaders and states.
Therefore, India should not impose its grim ethnic patchwork model on other nations.
Faced with the Indian threat of Operation Himmler, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bangladesh must balance their political, economic and military interests with China and Pakistan – the other Asian and regional giants. As Switzerland did, these smaller nations should deploy military capabilities within geographical areas where Indian communities (minorities) live to prevent the emergence of a pan-Indian mega state on the ashes of established nations.
A new non-aligned movement for Asia is needed to balance its interests between various competing parties. The old non-aligned movement is outdated and irrelevant. India cannot be in any non-aligned movement as it is heavily aligned to USA on geopolitical matters against truly nonaligned countries.
