Subject:: What Sharad Pawar needs to do
ngbk2000

November 29, 2005

Sourav backers fired hours after Pawar's takeover', was the banner
headline in a national newspaper announcing the defeat of the Jagmohan
Dalmiya-Ranbir Singh Mahendra group in the BCCI annual election of
November 29.
If that is correct, would the corollary be equally true -- that the
previous regime had packed the selection committee with 'Sourav
backers'? No? I didn't think so.

Is the defeat of the Dalmiya faction to be framed then as a vote by
the majority of member associations against Sourav Ganguly?

If West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharya suffers an
election reverse, can it be interpreted as a people's verdict against
the former Indian captain? If Rupa Ganguly's next film bombs at the
box office, is that because people were protesting her public backing
of Sourav?

If one factor, more than any other, has vitiated the Indian cricket
atmosphere in recent times, it is the framing of contemporary
happenings on pro- and anti- Sourav Ganguly lines.

So where does this stop? When do we get to the point where we see the
team, first, and individual components later, if at all?

When do we get to where we see Sourav, and V V S Laxman, and Anil
Kumble (who, arguably, has won us more games in both the Test and ODI
varieties than any other contemporary player up to and including
Sachin Tendulkar, and whose exclusion from the current one-day team
has been accepted without any grass growing on the Bangalore pitch) as
components of Team India?

When do we understand, and accept, that each of them has a necessary,
even vital, role to play in Indian cricket, and that the 11 players
picked for a particular game or a series are not necessarily a
reflection on those who have been left out, even less so on the
regions they hail from?

What does all this have to do with Sharad Pawar winning the BCCI
elections? Simple: Pawar hasn't 'won' an election so much as he has
inherited a tremendous responsibility.

Rewind a bit, to the Ganguly-Greg Chappell spat in Zimbabwe, to see
why: The BCCI had appointed a coach, and given him a brief to shape a
team for the future, as defined by World Cup 2007.

The coach and the captain did not see eye to eye on how this should be
done; on the methods to be used, on the personnel to be picked, or
omitted, on the standards to be set and on the means by which those
standards should be enforced.

It was, plain and simple, a disagreement on procedure. And the logical
solution was equally plain, and no less simple -- since both parties
had made certain allegations, what was needed was a full-scale inquiry.

The inquiry committee at the time needed to call everyone concerned --
the captain, the coach, the manager, the various players whose names
cropped up (for instance, Sourav Ganguly in his response repeatedly
referenced his deputy Rahul Dravid as being able to witness his
statements; V V S Laxman was a key figure in the controversy;
Harbhajan Singh had spoken of divisiveness and needed to be heard on
the subject), the physio and other members of the back up team.

It needed to ask hard questions, compel frank answers -- and at the
end of the exercise, make a determination, one way or the other.

Either the coach had lied throughout -- and worse, by distorting facts
had deliberately undermined the credibility, and authority, of the man
picked to lead this country's national team -- or he had not.

If the coach lied, that is clearly unacceptable, and the solution was
immediate dismissal from the post. If he hadn't lied, that in turn
meant that his central premise -- that the then captain was not fit
for the role, stood true, and that in turn suggested its own solution.

The preferred solution, by a body whose emblem by rights ought to be
the ostrich, was to conduct a little sham; to, at the end of it, talk
of rapprochement where, clearly, none was possible; and to craft a
devil's bargain with both parties (on the lines of Chappell takes a
hit on his veracity, allows the board to state officially that there
was no truth to his charge that Ganguly feigned injury; in return,
Ganguly is dropped from the one-day squad).

Clearly, that bargain was entered into as a stop-gap measure; the
masterminds who dreamt that up obviously reckoned the BCCI elections
would take place sooner rather than later, and once the office bearers
were in place with a year-long mandate, final decisions could be taken.

In all of this, one factor was not taken into account: the fact that
the Indian public has a tremendous emotional investment in the game,
and the players who represent their country. A back room compromise
was not going to wash, not with the public -- they, rightly, needed to
know what was going on, who was in the right and who was in the wrong;
in a word, they needed closure.

Once the BCCI in its wisdom denied us fans that basic requirement, the
rest was bound to follow. The fans have been divided into two camps,
where none should have existed (would there be all this heartburn had
the BCCI and its selection committee had the good sense to state,
clearly and for the record, exactly why Ganguly was dropped -- and if
the reason given stood the test of logic?).

The two camps have parsed the statistics, pro and con, ad nauseum --
and there is just so many times one camp can reference 'the last Test
innings was a century' and the other camp can go 'yeah, right, against
the terrifying Zimbabwe attack'. Once saturation point was reached,
the debate naturally had to descend into attacks on parochial lines.

At this point, enter the politician, that class of animal that makes a
career out of wallowing in muck. Here, politicians got into the act,
put out 'spirited' statements ('Let's see how the player will not be
in the team!'), and -- with support from that other class of creature
that will do anything for 15 minutes of media fame, the actor) --
framed the debate on us versus them lines and, in doing so, poured
needless fuel on already high-burning parochial flames.

Ergo, the situation is now totally out of hand -- you have a situation
where one player will be booed in Bangalore and another in Kolkata,
both groups of protestors forgetting that they are booing one of their
own (if we don't respect ourselves, what right do we have to complain
when a foreigner doesn't respect us?); you have groups going around
conducting funeral rites of those they dislike. And you have the man
at the centre of the storm flipping off his perceived 'enemies' -- an
act as indefensible as all that preceded it.

Was there ever anything less edifying? And for why? Not, no matter how
many statistics you dredge up, because Ganguly merits or does not
merit a place in the team. Not, no matter how many ad hominem
statements of the kind anyone makes to mask the real issues, because
of a 'white' fixation or a north-south, Aryan-Dravidian divide.

But because the BCCI forgot one simple tenet of public life -- when a
problem surfaces, sticking your head in the sand and your rear end in
the clouds is not the way to deal with it.

This is what Pawar inherits – a vitiated atmosphere; a polarization
within the team, and among the public; and the very real risk of the
situation getting worse as more ill-informed and, worse, intemperate
comment (on the lines of the headline referenced above) makes a bad
situation infinitely worse.

And that in turn suggests his immediate agenda -- the reversal of
previous policy; the introduction of transparency in all that the BCCI
does, and is.

Why Pawar's win is significant

The Pawar administration cannot afford to rule on the I Am The Be All
mindset; it needs to act (in cleaning up the heartburn within the
team, in cleaning up the factionalism in the selection process, in
cleaning up the mess the television rights issue is in, in cleaning up
the financial mismanagement that pervades the administration), and it
needs to explain its actions, in clear and forthright terms.

And, as a first item on its agenda, it needs to empower the selection
committee, and its chairman, to speak frankly on the subject of Sourav
Ganguly. To discuss the reasons for his omission from the one-day
squad, to discuss his role in the Test squad, to discuss his future
role in Indian cricket as they perceive it.

A great player who in his pomp has contributed immensely to the
development of the current team deserves no less; what he does not
deserve is for his name to be the focal point of all that is
narrow-minded and coarse.

If Pawar and his team can, as a first step, accomplish this, they will
do much to restore to Indian cricket an atmosphere of calm; that done,
the rest of their agenda for the one-year term will pretty much
suggest itself automatically.

Muhammad (peace be upon him) was born in Makkah in the year 570, during the

Aamenah and Abdullah, from the tribe of Quraysh. He was a direct descendant of
Ishmael, the eldest son of prophet Abraham. Muhammad's father died just before
he was born, and his mother passed away when he was six. He was raised by this
grandfather, the chief of Makkah; and upon his grandfather's death, Muhammad
came under the care of his uncle, Abu Talib.

Muhammad was a shepherd in his youth. As he grew up, he became known for his
truthfulness, generosity, and sincerity; earning the title of al Amin, the
trustworthy one. Muhammad was frequently called upon to arbitrate disputes and
counsel his fellow Makkans.

At age 25, Muhammad married Khadijah, an honorable and successful businesswoman.
They were blessed with two sons and four daughters. It was an ideal marriage and
they lived a happy family life.

Muhammad was of a contemplative nature and had long detested the decadence and
cruelty of his society. It became his habit to meditate from time to time in the
cave of Hira' near the summit of Jabal an-Nur, the "Mountain of Light" on the
outskirts of Makkah.

How did Muhammad become a Messenger of God

At the age of 40, while engaged in a meditative retreat, Muhammad received his
first revelation from God through the Archangel Gabriel. This revelation, which
continued for twenty three years, is known as the Qur'an

Muhammad began to share the revelations he received from God with the people of
Makkah. They were idol worshippers, and rejected Muhammad's call to worship only
One God. They opposed Muhammad and his small group of followers in every way.
These early Muslims suffered bitter persecution.

In 622, God gave the Muslim community the command to emigrate. This event, the
hijrah or migration, in which they left Makkah for the city of Madinah, some 260
miles to the North, marks the beginning of the Muslim calendar.

Madinah provided Muhammad and the Muslims a safe and nurturing haven in which
the Muslim community grew. After several years, the Prophet and his followers
returned to Makkah and forgave their enemies. Then, turning their attention to
the Ka'bah (the sanctuary that Abraham built), they removed the idols and
rededicated it to the worship of the One God. Before the Prophet died at the age
of 63, most of the people of Arabia had embraced his message. In less than a
century, Islam had spread to Spain in the west, as far east as China.

   In a significant departure, from the 49-year-old Indian parliamentary
experience, the Eleventh Lok Sabha unanimously elected a member from the
Opposition, Shri P.A. Sangma, as the Speaker. From a humble beginning in a small
tribal village in Meghalaya, he rose to the exalted office of the Speaker of the
Lok Sabha by sheer dint of his merit, determination and industry. Affable,
friendly and more often informal in disposition and endowed with a spontaneous
sense of wit and humour, but firm when it came to ensuring orderly conduct of
the House, Speaker Sangma had a charming personality which won him unstinted
cooperation from all shades of political opinion represented in the Lok Sabha.
His quest for maintaining decorum, dignity and autonomy of the House with
meticulous impartiality, earned him approbation nationwide.Purno Agitok Sangma
was born on 1 September 1947 in village Chapahati in the picturesque West Garo
Hills District of the State of Meghalaya in North East India. Growing
  up in the small tribal village, young Sangma realised early in life that he
would have to struggle hard to rise in life. Inspired by his mother who
inculcated in him the values of diligence, humility and honesty, he learnt that
education was the only way to progress in life. After completing his graduation
from St. Anthony's College, he went to Dibrugarh University in Assam for his
Masters degree in International Relations. Subsequently, he also obtained a
degree in Law.Sangma is a man of many parts, having been, in the course of his
career, a lecturer, a lawyer and a journalist before he joined politics. He
started his political life as a worker of the Congress Party and his rise
through the ranks of the Party has been phenomenal. In 1974, he became the
General Secretary of the Meghalaya Pradesh Youth Congress; he also remained its
Vice-President for some time. In recognition of his commitment to the party's
ideals and also taking into account his organisational skills, he was
  appointed the General Secretary of the Meghalaya Pradesh Congress Committee in
1975 and held that post till 1980.Sangma came to the national political scene in
1977 when the country was preparing for the Sixth General Elections. He was
elected to the Lok Sabha from the Tura constituency in his home State on the
Congress ticket. The 30-year-old Sangma entered the portals of Parliament at a
time when the nation was witnessing a major political change with the Congress
Party losing power at the Center for the first time since Independence. It was
an opportune moment for a budding parliamentarian to make his mark and the
articulate Sangma made full use of the opportunity to make an impact as a
sincere and hard-working member.In less than two years, national politics came a
full turn and the Janata Party went out of office. The Charan Singh Government
which assumed office subsequently lasted but a few months. In the mid-term
elections of  1980, the Indira Gandhi led Congress Party
  returned to power at the Centre. Sangma was re-elected to the Lok Sabha from
the same constituency.  In the party organisation too, Sangma moved up fast and
became the Joint Secretary of the All India Congress Committee in 1980, before
he was inducted into the Union Cabinet and assumed the office of the Deputy
Minister in charge of Industry in November 1980, After two years, he shifted to
the Ministry of Commerce as Deputy Minister and held that post till December
1984.Sangma was returned to the Eighth Lok Sabha in the General Elections of
1984. Recognising his potential and dedication to the Congress ideals, the then
Prime Minister, Rajiv Gandhi inducted him into his Cabinet, this time as a
Minister of State holding charge of Commerce and Supply.  For a short while, he
also functioned as the Minister of State for Home Affairs. Sangma took over as
the Minister of State for Labour with Independent Charge in October 1986.Ever
amenable to reason and conciliatory in attitude, Sangma,
  however, was uncompromising when it came to safeguarding the fundamentals of
national interests. It was no wonder then that during his tenure as the Labour
Minister, there was a sharp decline in industrial strikes and lock-outs.   Known
for his meticulous homework, complete mastery of the subject at hand and
phenomenally long memory for facts and details, Sangma was one Minister who
could reply to a heated debate in Parliament without the aid of officials' slips
from the Officers' Gallery. His amiability, thorough knowledge of the
functioning of his Ministry and an inimitable sense of humour enabled him to
tackle all challenges in Parliament. The Question Hour particularly brought out
the best in him, handling the most ticklish matters with consummate ease.
Throughout his Ministerial tenure, he retained the image of an honest and
conscientious executive and always steered clear of any controversy.Sangma had a
remarkable understanding of the political realities of the entire North
  East, particularly of his home State. Though, starting 1977, he was in Delhi
and busy in national politics, he never cut himself off from his roots and
always kept track of political developments back home. It was this thorough
understanding of the State politics which made the Congress Party leadership to
requisition his services for Meghalaya in 1988. That year, he returned to
Meghalaya politics, this time as the Chief Minister. He headed a 48-member
Coalition Government in a tumultuous period in the State's political history. 
In 1990, following the resignation of his Government, Sangma became the Leader
of the Opposition in the State Legislative Assembly.The call of the nation
brought Sangma back to the Centre soon. He returned to the Lok Sabha in 1991
following the General Elections and was inducted into the Union Cabinet, this
time by Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao. Sangma was given the Independent
Charge of the Ministry of Coal. In February 1992, he was given the
  additional responsibility of assisting the Prime Minister in the Ministry of
Labour. In the context of the Economic Reforms and Liberalisation Policy
announced by the Union Government, his principal challenge was to sell the idea
of economic reforms to a restive and apprehensive labour force. Tirelessly
presiding over tri-partite Industrial Committee meetings, he made tenacious
efforts at convincing the labour of the inevitability of economic reforms. He
emphasised the need for a new Management and Work Culture, the hallmark of which
was generation of wealth through efficiency, productivity and modernisation and
sharing of wealth equitably. Sangma assumed the Independent Charge of the
Ministry of Labour in January 1993. He was elevated to the Cabinet rank (the
first tribal to be elevated as such) in the Ministry of Labour in February 1995.
As the Union Labour Minister, he headed the Tripartite Indian Delegation to the
International Labour Conference in Geneva six times where he
  proved his mettle repeatedly. He was also elected the Chairman of the Asia and
Pacific Region for the International Labour Ministers' Conference, 1994-95. When
foreign investors had just begun to favour India as their destination and a
furore was raised in some quarters over the so-called 'social clause' issue,
Sangma, as Labour Minister, organised a Conference of Labour Ministers from
Non-aligned and other Developing Countries in 1994-95. He brought about
unanimity amongst them to hold the position that the leverage of international
trade should not be used in respect of social issues like labour standards as
that would be coercive.In September 1995, Sangma took over as the Minister of
Information and Broadcasting, the post he held till the General Elections to the
Eleventh Lok Sabha.As a parliamentarian, Sangma, by virtue of his interest as
well as the offices he held, was active in several Committees. He was a member
of the Committee on Subordinate Legislation, Committee on
  Communications and Committee on Government Assurances and Chairman of the
Parliamentary Consultative Committees on Labour, Coal and Communications.Sangma
was elected to the Lok Sabha for the fifth time from the Tura constituency in
the 1996 General Elections. On 23 May 1996, he was unanimously elected the
Speaker of the Eleventh Lok Sabha with universal support cutting across all
political parties. In half a century of Indian parliamentary history, he was the
first member from the Opposition to hold the office of the Speaker.Sangma,
undoubtedly, had all the credentials for the august office—legal training, long
experience as a parliamentarian as well as a Minister, reputation for
impartiality, transparency, humility and wit and wisdom. From the time he
assumed the office of the Speaker, he executed his responsibility with such
flair and assurance, it seemed that expertise of the job came to him
instinctively. He had a unique approach to parliamentary reforms. As a Speaker,
he
  ensured that rules were observed by the members even in the midst of stormy
debates. Parliamentary democracy, he observed, meant free debate, objective
deliberations and healthy criticism and it was for the Speaker to ensure that
these objectives were achieved. As one who went beyond holding the balance
between the Treasury and the Opposition benches to holding the balance of every
individual member. Speaker Sangma won the admiration of both the ruling
Coalition and the Opposition within a short span of time. He also displayed a
tremendous sense of timing and history when he took laudable initiatives towards
facilitating greater partnership between men and women in politics and in
stressing the importance of ethics and probity in public life. With this in
view, during his Speakership, he guided the formation of a Standing Joint
Parliamentary Committee on Empowerment of Women and also the constitution of a
Joint Parliamentary Committee for considering the Constitution (Eighty-first
  Amendment) Bill, 1996 which sought to provide for 33-1/3 per cent reservation
for women in the Lok Sabha and the State Legislative Assemblies.   In order to
maintain high traditions in parliamentary life, Sangma believed, members of
Parliament were expected to maintain standards of conduct, both inside the House
and outside. He was of the considered view that the ethical values that ought to
permeate the legislative, the executive and the judicial wings of the
constitutional system had a deep and lasting Impact on the character, direction,
credibility and future of democratic governance. During Sangma's tenure as
Speaker, in a move which won encomiums from all quarters, an 8-member Study
Group of the Committee of Privileges was constituted to report on Ethics and
Standards in Public Life, The Study Group's report was considered by the
Committee of Privileges and adopted with some amendments. The report was later
presented to the Twelfth Lok Sabha.Another major initiative taken by
  Speaker Sangma was the convening of a Special Session of both the Houses of
Parliament from 26 August to 1 September 1997 as part of the Golden Jubilee
Celebrations of India's Independence. The Session took stock of the achievements
and also set a National Agenda for the future. Opening the Special Session, for
the first time in the Indian parliamentary history, the Speaker addressed the
House and stressed the need for a second freedom struggle—"freedom from our own
internal contradictions, between our prosperity and poverty, between the plenty
of our resource endowments and the scarcity of their prudent management, between
peace and tolerance and the current conduct sliding towards violence,
intolerance and discrimination".As Speaker, Sangma led the Indian Parliamentary
Delegations to the 42nd and 43rd Commonwealth Parliamentary Association
Conferences in Kuala Lumpur in August 1996, and in Port Louis in September 1997,
respectively. He also led the Indian Parliamentary Delegations
  to the 96th Inter-Parliamentary Union Conference in Beijing in September 1996
and the 98th Conference in Cairo in September 1997. Sangma also headed the
Indian Parliamentary Delegation to the Second Conference of the Association of
SAARC Speakers and Parliamentarians held in Islamabad in October 1997. He
chaired the Inter-Parliamentary Specialised Conference of the IPU on "Towards
Partnership between Men and Women in Politics" hosted by the Indian Parliament
in New Delhi in February 1997. The first ever Conference of the Chairmen and
Members of the Public Accounts Committees of SAARC Parliaments was also held in
New Delhi in August 1997 during his eventful tenure. Sangma was an extremely
popular Presiding Officer, respected for his knowledge of rules and even more
for his innate understanding of parliamentary traditions. He was equally at his
best outside the House.  He participated in many social gatherings and
intellectual interactions organised by activist groups with great
  enthusiasm, guided objective and non-partisan debates on national issues and
added a new social and public dimension to the office of the Speaker.Sangma has
been closely associated with various social organisations and educational
institutions. He was the Editor of a Meghalaya daily, Chandambeni Kalrang. He
has also edited two volumes of the book India in ILO.Sangma received the Michael
John Roll of Honour of the Tata Workers' Union for "Distinguished Contribution
to the Cause of Labour and to the Parliamentary System" in March 1997. He also
received from the President of India in May 1997 the Golden jubilee Award of the
Indian National Trade Union Congress (INTUC) for outstanding contribution to the
cause of the working class. Sangma is a multi-faceted personality. His concern
for decorum, freedom and dignity of the House earned him the reputation of an
outstanding parliamentarian. What, however, made Sangma acceptable to political
parties of all shades, as a Speaker, was his
  ability to earn the confidence of people on both sides of the House. His
abiding concern for the underprivileged and his tireless endeavors to eradicate
poverty and remove socio-economic inequalities have endeared him to the masses.
Indeed, he is a man of the masses with an international standing. It is the
human side of Sangma which has brought him a large number of friends amongst the
people at large.In a short span of less than two years, Sangma left an indelible
impress of his personality on the office of the Speaker of the Lok Sabha. His
cherubic face, hearty laugh, quick wit, boundless enthusiasm, impeccable
demeanour and earthy wisdom made him a household name, with people from all over
the country showering compliments for the rare skill with which he conducted the
proceedings of the House. In the media too, his tenure as Speaker was highly
appreciated.  The General Elections of 1998 saw Sangma returning to the Lok
Sabha once again and presently, he is one of the most
  articulate and dignified speakers in the Opposition benches, listened to by all
with respect and attention.

I hope you don't mind receiving my letter. It is short but full of information


What is the Qur’ân?

The Qur’ân is the name given to Allah’s speech that He revealed to His Servant
and Messenger Muhammad (may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him);
speech that is recited as an act of worship, is miraculous, and cannot be
imitated by man. It is the name of Allah’s Book, and no other book is called by
this name. The most common names for Allah’s Book are al-Qur’ân (the Recital)
and al-Kitâb (the Book). This is an indication of how much care has been taken
in its preservation, both in the memories of people as well as in written form,
each way of preserving it reinforcing the other.

The meaning of revelation:

Revelation is where Allah gives whatever knowledge He wills to those whom He
chooses to receive it. Allah gives this knowledge to them in order for them to
convey it to whomever else He wishes.

All the Messengers of Allah experienced revelation. Allah says:

"Verily, We have sent Revelation to you (O Muhammad) as We have sent Revelation
to Nűh (Noah) and the prophets who came after him. We had sent revelation to
Ibrâhîm (Abraham), Ismâ`îl (Ishmael), Ishâq (Isaac), Ya`qűb (Jacob), the Tribes,
`Isâ (Jesus), Ayyűb (Job), Yűnus (Jonah), Hârűn (Aaron), and Sulaymân (Solomon).
And to Dâwűd (David) We gave the Psalms. And Messengers We have told you about
before, and Messengers We have not told you about – and to Műsâ (Moses) We spoke
directly

The Occurrence of Revelation:

Revelation is a fact that cannot be denied by anyone who believes in the
existence of Allah and His absolute Power. The Creator and Sustainer maintains
His creation in any manner that pleases Him. The connection between the Creator
and his Creation is by way of His Messengers, and these Messengers only know
what Allah wants from them by way of revelation, either directly or indirectly.
The rational mind cannot dismiss the possibility of revelation, since nothing is
difficult for the All-Powerful Creator.
