Whoever gets to be the front person at the UK Treasury after the widely-expected move by Gordon Brown to the office of Prime Minister in two days’ time and following that whoever in fact gets to deliver the ‘Comprehensive Spending Review’ as scheduled to be published in a few weeks’ time, the fact remains that the ‘CSR’ will have been the product of Gordon Brown’s thinking [along with the usual teams of people that he would have used for the previous CSRs]. It follows therefore that the contents of that Review, which most of the Crossrail hole Bill touts are hyping up to include a clear commitment of public funding of the Big Business Looters’ charter [Crossrail Bill] – will be examined for clues and signs as to where Brown is taking the management and the direction of the UK society…. A reasonable enough picture was contained in a recent speech Brown delivered to or scripted for the ‘Green Alliance’. In the Brick Lane, Whitechapel and Stepney London E1 area and in the rest of ‘ordinary Tower Hamlets’, the script of that speech is quite relevant in context. In one part, Brown speaks of or in effect refers to all the key segments of the country – society, constitution, economy and the environment. Which is where the Khoodeelaar! Campaign against the Crossrail hole attacks on the East End has been active in… In months and even may be years to come, the campaign against Crossrail hole attacks is going to continue to have running and active relevance to all the segments and parts of the country … in fact and in principle…
It is utterly central to identify the words and the intentions of Gordon Brown, the so-called ‘Prime Minister in waiting’ before he ceases to be referred to in such a loaded way and gets the simpler style of being described just as the UK’s ‘Prime Minister’ – in order that we can stop his office being abused like Blair’s was with such horrendous long term and other terms of consequences for the worse for the world and for the society within the UKView Gordon Brown’s speech to the ‘Green Alliance’ at the external web address quoted below

What did Frank Field say about Blair’s lack of intellectual rigour and Blair’s crude demand to be shown how to ‘cut welfare’ – We show the Blairing poverty-creation agenda at work in the Crossrail hole plot and why Crossrail hole plotter ‘Undone mayor’ Ken Livingstone is totally discredited by his craze for the Crossrail hole -
Khoodeelaar! AGAIN shows the sums which leave Gordon Brown with no option but to scrap the present Crossrail hole |Bill – and start from the scratch on meeting the transport needs of the UK economy -

Khoodeelaar! – History against corrupting Big Business assault – From Polashee against the ‘Robert Clive East India Company’ in June 1757 to Brick Lane against Ken Livingstone’s Crossrail hole plot in June 2007
AADHIKARonline quoting from the internet resource, based in Bangladesh, called ‘Banglapedia’ on their online record on Siraj-ud-Daulah as accessed at 0500 Hrs GMT on 24 June 2007
AADHIKARonline have in the texts, changed the spelling in the English version of the Nawab’s name to more authentically reflect the original as pronounced in his family



“Siraj-ud-Daulah Nawab of Bengal. After the battle of PALASHI (23 June 1757) in which Siraj-ud-Daulah was defeated and subsequently murdered, the British became the virtual masters of Bengal, reducing the later nawabs to mere puppets in their hands. Mirza Muhammad Siraj-ud-Daulah was the grandson of Nawab ALIVARDI KHAN and son of AMINA BEGUM and ZAINUDDIN AHMAD KHAN.


He was born in 1733 and soon after his birth Alivardi Khan was appointed as the deputy governor of Bihar. So Siraj-ud-Daulah was regarded as a 'fortune child' in the family and his grandfather had special affection and favour for him. It is stated that Alivardi had given his heart to Siraj-ud-Daulah from the day of his birth and 'never kept him apart from himself'.

The old Nawab had Shiraj educated in his house. According to Muzaffarnamah of Karam Ali, Alivardi Khan tried to train him in the art of governance and other qualities that go with a crown prince. His general education was of formal type and perhaps not well calculated. Owing to ungrudging affection of the old nawab and flattery of his sycophant retinue he might have committed some excesses in his early years which Alivardi ignored. It may, however, be noted that Sirajuddaula was given the charge of the nawab's fleet at Dhaka while his younger brother Ikramuddaula commanded the army. Alivardi took young Siraj with him in his military campaigns against the Marathas in 1746.

Alivardi Khan celebrated Sirajuddaula's marriage with great pomp and grandeur. In May 1752, the nawab declared Sirajuddaula as his successor. On this occasion the European trading companies in Bengal also greeted him. During the closing years of his reign, premature death of some family members shattered Alivardi both mentally and physically and the old nawab died on 10 April 1756 at the age of eighty. Immediately before his death the nawab advised Siraj to strive for the suppression of the enemies (of the province) and devote himself to secure the well-being of the subjects by removing all evils and disorders. He implored Siraj to nurture the goodwill of the people and follow his (Alivardi's) footsteps. Luke Scrafton relates that Sirajuddaula swore on the Quran at the deathbed of his grandfather that he would not touch any intoxicating liquor in future and that he kept the promise ever after. Siraj ruled for little over one year (April 1756 to June 1757) and the Masnad of Bengal was full of thorns for him. During his short lived- administration the young nawab faced enemies from within the family as well as from out-side.

Sirajuddaula's nomination to the nawabship caused jealousy and enmity of GHASETI BEGUM (eldest sister of Siraj's mother), Raja RAJBALLABH, MIR JAFAR ALI KHAN and SHAWKAT JANG (Siraj's cousin). Ghaseti Begam possessed huge wealth, which was the source of her influence and strength. Apprehending serious opposition from her, Sirajuddaula seized her wealth from Motijheel Palace and placed her in confinement. The nawab also made certain changes in high government positions giving them to his own favourites. Mir Mardan was appointed Bakshi (Paymaster of the army) in place of Mir Jafar. Mohanlal was elevated to the post of peshkar of his Dewan Khana and he exercised great influence in the administration. Eventually Siraj suppressed Shaukat Jang, governor of Purnia, who was killed in a clash.

The accession of Sirajuddaula threatened the position of the dominant section of the ruling group in MURSHIDABAD, which was engaged in accumulation of wealth during the time of the earlier nawabs. With his assuming the reins of government, this group apprehended that he would be a danger to their continuous enjoyment of the sources of accumulation of wealth, as he was trying to raise another group to counterpoise the old one which usurped the power of the nawab to a great extent. Sirajuddaula's accession was a threat to the British also because he made it absolutely clear that unlike the previous nawabs he would not put up with the abuse of DASTAKs by the British and their illegal private trade. The threat came at a crucial time when the private trade of the Company's servants was facing a severe crisis.

Sirajuddaula had genuine grievances against the English EAST INDIA COMPANY. First of all he suspected the company's design against his succession and expressed his annoyance to the British in no uncertain terms. His charges against the company were, first, that they strengthened the fortification around the FORT WILLIAM without his approval; second, that they grossly abused the trade privileges granted to them by the Mughal rulers by which the government incurred heavy loss of customs duties; and third, that they gave shelter to his officers like Krisnadas, son of Rajballav who appropriated government funds. The nawab also informed them of his intention to forgive them if they removed his complaints and agreed to trade upon the same terms and conditions as they did in the time of MURSHID QULI KHAN. But the company practically showed no respect to the nawab's demands. On the other hand, governor GOGER DRAKE of the Calcutta Council insulted Naraigan Singh, nawab's special envoy to Fort William.

These events enraged the nawab and to retaliate he first captured the KASIMBAZAR factory and then attacked CALCUTTA and drove the English out. This attack led to the so-called BLACK HOLE INCIDENT. Following the nawab's action at Calcutta and arrival of reinforcement from Madras the TREATY OF ALINAGAR was signed between him and the English by which the nawab agreed to compensate the English their losses at Calcutta. But the English now became more arrogant. In fact reestablishment of the company's settlements in Bengal, after it's defeat at Calcutta, was possible only in two ways either to approach the nawab to forgive the company or to avenge the defeat by force. The English chose to avenge and in the garb of the peace treaty actual preparation for war began.

The English now turned to vigorous political and secret activities to destroy the French influence and to replace Sirajuddaula by a person entirely friendly to them. To this end the company successfully made a conspiracy against the nawab and enlisted the support of Mir Jafar, the JAGAT SHETH and other disaffected courtiers. When everything was finalised the company's forces under ROBERT CLIVE and CHARLES WATSON moved towards Murshidabad for a show down. The nawab met Clive at Palashi on 23 June 1757. The nawab was defeated in the battle that ensued and fled from the battlefield. On his way to Patna he was caught by a partisan of Mir Jafar and killed by an Iranian guard at the instance of Miran (son of Mir Jafar) on the night preceding 3 July 1757. In the mean time the company installed Mir Jafar as the new nawab of Bengal. Thus the English won the victory at Palashi not merely because of the strength of their forces but because of the strength of the conspiracy and the treason within Sirajuddaula's camp. The defeat of the nawab marked the beginning of the English ascendancy in Bengal and gradually the entire subcontinent surrendered its destiny to the East India Company.

Sirajuddaula was a victim of a conspiracy, engineered and encouraged by the British who roped in the disgruntled elements of the darbar in their 'project' of a coup. There is no denying that there was a simmering discontent in the nawab's court. But resentment against or dissatisfaction with the nawab might have created the necessary but not the sufficient condition for the hatching or the success of a conspiracy. The Palashi conspiracy took the final shape only under the aegis of the British and without their active involvement, it would not have matured enough to bring about the downfall of the nawab. Thus, Sirajuddaula had to go both for the benefit of the British and the ruling clique at Murshidabad. And hence the Palashi revolution in which Sirajuddaula was deposed and Mir Jafar installed.

It may be true that as a nawab, he was a little arrogant and perhaps also short-tempered. In other words, he had his limitations. His main shortcomings were his lack of firm resolution, his vacillation and above all his bewilderment when faced with a critical situation. But one has to remember that he was still a young man in his early twenties, not yet fully mature and quite a little 'intoxicated' with his power and position. His greatest mistake was that, in his inexperience, he tried to deal with all his opponents at the same time, without having recourse to necessary precautions that they could not combine against him. His failure to do so and his irresolution till the last moment brought about his downfall.

Sirajuddaula's limitations and his public and private character should be judged considering the environment he worked in and the cause he fought for and gave his life. A marked change in his character was noticeable after he had become the nawab. Alivardi's last advice might have acted as a great influencing factor on him. The verdict of history is that whatever might have been his fault, Sirajuddaula neither betrayed his master nor sold his country. 'The name of Sirajuddaula stands higher in the scale of honour than does the name of Clive. He was the only one of the principal actors who did not attempt to deceive'. [Sushil Chaudhury and KM Mohsin]

Khoodeelaar! No to the history of the Crossrail hole plot - from 23 June 1757 to 23 June 2007
'East London's answer to Glastonbury' Brick Lane Literary Festival - 'Lines of Hunger....'

First reports on the ‘Lines of Hunger’ festival held at 1 o'clock on Saturday 23 June 2007 at the corner of Brick Lane and Hanbury Street London E1 UK


The key points made by Khoodeelaar! organiser Muhammad Haque when linking the ‘Undone Mayor’ Ken Livingstone’s current irrational craze for the Crossrail hole attack on the East End of London and the imperialist designs and corruption of Robert Clive who abused the hospitality of the people in the Bangladesh, India and Pakistan subcontinent in June 1757
included these
:
Like the East India company, the CrossRail hole company is engaged in deception and in lying about their intentions and
like the East India Company, the CRASSrail Company is engaged in trying to bribe some ‘locals’ so that the local community would be destroyed when the CrossRail company gets the ‘powers’ to destroy the local community
Like the East India Company, the Crossrail company is engaged in backing the corrupt elements on the local ‘council which as the ‘local education authority’ is admitted by all independent observers, including even the ‘mainstream’ news outlets in the Uk to be one of the worst local education authorities, allowing its schools to perform at such low levels that most of the youngsters and school leavers are being turned out of schools with no qualifications or low qualifications, which are then being

From the Earlier editions of AADHIKAROnline, reporting on the ‘Lines of Hunger…’ Literary Festival held by Khoodeelaar! No to Crossrail hole plot, commemorating the battle of Polashee on 23 June 1757 which marked the impoverishment by the ‘East India Company’ of Robert Clive of the region now made up by Bangladesh India and Pakistan …



The difference between this event and the Glastonbury festival is immense and relevant. The first difference is that unlike the overfed, the over-funded who were able to get into Glastonbury and ‘enjoy culture’, there are people in the inner cities for whom such pursuits are beyond their ability - the people whose ‘pleasure’ and more importantly whose right to even expect to have such pleasure, was being defended are the people who are the targets of the attacks. The attacks are represented in the Crossrail hole plot
The plot is controlled by the very big business and their backers and approvers and their beneficiaries who would be able to command a seat at the Glastonbury festival
the people in the east end of London generally – in common with the people in all other inner cities in Blaired Britain – would not have the luxury to even dream of spending the sort of money that the Glastonbury consumers can spend do spend and do so as a matter of course…
The reason, in particular for those who make up the community in Brick Lane, Whitechapel and Stepney London E1 area – the target of ‘undone mayor’ Ken Livingstone’s Crossrail hole attack - is mainly in the history of economic incapacitation, the educational underachievement, the social incohesion, the environmental deprivation that have been imposed on the same community.
Even before the population that makes up the community in the Brick Lane, Whitechapel and Stepney London E1 area, arrived and settled in the area, it had inherited the historic consequences of the massive and long term dislocation set in motion by the East India company on 23 June 1757.
The Khoodeelaar! campaign held the demonstration outside London’s ‘City Hall’ near the Tower of London on 19 June 2007. The occasion was a brief ‘celebration’ of the East India Company's ‘victory’ in 1757 against the ‘Nawab Shiraj Ud Daula’. As the City Hall is the HQ of ‘Undone mayor’ Ken Livingstone the Khoodeelaar! campaign demonstrated their condemnation of the role being played by Ken Livingstone in promoting the Crossrail hole plot against the East End of London.
The people in the demonstration shouted slogans that made a direct policy link between the East India Company in 1757 and the Crossrail Company in 2007. Between Robert Clive of the East India Company and Ken Livingstone who as mayor is using the Crossrail Company [Cross London Rail Links] as the administrative tool for pushing for the Crossrail hole attacks on the East End of London.

Boris Johnson will find himself in even bigger risk of losing his 'elected' post by default unless he makes clean break from Livingstone's lies...

Monday 23 June 2008

History Today:
251th anniversary of the Battle of Polashee where the corrupt Robert Clive and his corrupter colluders in the ‘East India Company’ bribed and corrupted a number of the key staff in the army and government of Siraj Ud Dauwla....

In the name of the people of London [Monday 23 June 2008]: Boris Johnson's 'swift-action-sacking' of his white, 'Australian' [let's remember the Old, the ORIGINAL name of that country-continent] adviser shows that Boris WILL unravel

Why?
And How?

Why first:

Because it shows that Boris Johnson really does NOT understand London political situation. Trued he got ‘elected’. But that is not proof that Boris understands London political situation. Especially London corrupted political leanings and linkages...


That makes Boris Johnson untenably ignorant.
