It seems that Home Minister Amit Shah is now under the evil eye of Lord Shani. From the way the attacks on Home Minister Shah have started inside and outside India, it seems clear that there may be a big change in his politics in the near future. Let us tell here that regarding the hateful atmosphere in many states of India, where more than a hundred bureaucrats of the country have drawn the attention of Home Minister Shah on the hateful politics going on in the Hindi belt and have raised questions outside the country. Accusations are being made on the Minister of Home Affairs regarding the murder of Bhai Hardeep Singh Nijhar in Canada. It is obvious that such a game will have a deep impact on Amit Shah’s image and may also bring India into disrepute.
The Constitutional Conduct Group, a group of retired officers who have periodically expressed concern over the anomalies brewing in the country, has now insisted on curbing the rise in communal tensions in BJP-ruled Uttarakhand. Former Lieutenant Governor of Delhi Najeeb Jung, Former Chief Economic Adviser Nitin Desai, Former Secretary (RAW) AS Dulat, Former Finance Adviser (Defense Services) Sudhanshu Mohanty, Former Adviser (Finance) Telecom Commission Ruchira Mukherjee, Former DGP (Intelligence) ) West Bengal AK Samantha, former Chief Secretary West Bengal Ardhendu Sen, former Calcutta Metro General Manager Geeta Thupal and 101 former officers including former DGP Punjab Julio Ribeiro have written a letter with their signatures to the Union Home Minister Amit Shah saying that after the incidents of hate speech and violence in the state during August, a religion parliament was held in Dehradun on September 10, which In particular, hate speech was made. After this, communal violence took place in Dehradun on September 27 and Uttarakashi on October 24. Most of the people responsible for violent incidents, arson and vandalism in the name of love jihad have not been apprehended. Even if some are caught, they got bail. Among them is Yati Narasimhanand, the chief organizer of Dharma Parliament in Hardwar in 2021, who is used to doing provocative actions. He also said last week that the UP Police had put him under house arrest last week for making comments about minorities (Muslims), while the police denied his claim.
The former officers have demanded the Union Home Minister to stop the Maha Panchayat in Uttarkashi on November 4 and the Dharma Parliament in December. Strict action should be taken against those who instigate hatred and violence with such events. The Uttarakhand police should be asked why they did not try to cancel Yati Narasimhanand’s bail after he violated his bail conditions. He should be arrested under the National Security Act for disturbing the peace. The former officers have also demanded that the Uttarakhand Police be asked to take strict action in all incidents of violence, hatred and vandalism.
The government should have followed the advice of these eminent former officers and taken appropriate action. But it was not done. This letter of former bureaucrats during the Maharashtra and Jharkhand elections is not only a strong attack on the BJP-ruled states but it is also raising questions on the politics of Home Minister Shah. The responsibility of the Home Minister is to maintain peace and harmony in India, but from the kind of atmosphere that is being created in many states, it is clear that the Home Minister has come under suspicion. But the matter is not limited to this only.
It is being seen and heard for the first time that a country has directly accused India’s Home Minister Amit Shah of an attack on Khalistanis and has also confirmed Shah’s involvement in such an attack. Diplomatic relations between two countries are bigger than any minister and then there is also the question of the dignity of a country. But the Indian government is silent, the opposition parties do not have the strength to question the government.
But the big question is, did any home minister of the country ever face such allegations after independence?
During the last week, Canada’s Deputy Foreign Minister David Morrison told the American newspaper Washington Post that India’s Home Minister Amit Shah was involved in the conspiracy to kill Canadian citizens. Morrison made this revelation during the hearing of the Canadian Parliamentary Committee on Public Safety.
For the first time, Canada has included India in the list of countries that pose cyber threats. By this he has tried to indicate that there is a possibility of espionage against Ottawa through elements sponsored by the (Indian) government. Amid the ongoing diplomatic row between the two countries, Canada’s National Cyber Threat Assessment 2025-2026 report ranked India fifth after China, Russia, Iran and North Korea. The report said, “We assess that Cyber threat actors sponsored by the Government of India are likely to have conducted cyber threat activity against Government of Canada networks for espionage purposes.” The development comes at a time when Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said a year ago that Canada had credible evidence that Indian government agents were involved in the June 2023 killing of Canadian Sikh activist Hardeep Singh Nijhar in British Columbia. were
On the other hand, India rejected this allegation as absurd. The Indian Ministry of External Affairs has registered a strong protest on the comments of a Canadian minister about Union Home Minister Amit Shah. The ministry said that such ‘absurd and baseless’ allegations would affect bilateral relations between the two countries.
