SUBJECT: SECULAR INDIA SUPPORTS EMMANUEL MINISTRIES, 
RAJASTHAN PARLIAMENT ADJOURNED AFTER HEATED DEBATE 
 
REF: NEW DELHI 1818 
 
Classified By: DCM Bob Blake for reasons 1.4 (B,D) 
 
1.  (C) Summary: Thousands of Indians from all religious 
communities marched on the Rajasthan Parliament in Jaipur on 
March 21 to demand an end to the anti-Emmanuel Mission (EM) 
campaign of state Minister for Social Welfare and 
Cooperatives Madan Delivar.  The issue also caused a major 
uproar in the state parliament, resulting in a physical 
confrontation between BJP and Congress representatives and 
two adjournments to quell the "pandemonium."  The broad 
outpouring of support for EM and the heated debate in the 
Rajasthan Assembly demonstrate that civil society and the 
state political machinery are actively confronting the 
minority Hindutva movement in Rajasthan.  National Human 
Rights Commission Chairman Nirmal Singh told Poloff on March 
21 that he met the previous wmek with the Rajasthan Director 
General of Police and Home Secretary and requested a full 
report on the situation involving EM.  BJP MP and spokesman 
Balbir Punj told poloff on March 21 that his party expects 
the issue to fade away within the next few weeks, implying 
that they do not plan to pursue the issue.  Press reported 
that EM leader Samuel Thomas remains in police custody and 
will be released on March 23.  End Summary. 
 
Rajasthan Civil Society Protests Alleged Attacks on EM 
--------------------------------------------- --------- 
 
2.  (SBU) Thousands of people from all religious communities 
held a peaceful march on the Rajasthan Parliament in Jaipur 
on Tuesday, March 21 to protest recent alleged attacks on 
Emmanuel Mission property and the arrest of EM leader Samuel 
Thomas (Reftel).  The march, organized by the Rajasthan 
Christian Fellowship (RCF), included human rights groups, 
dalit activists, Muslim and Buddhist organizations, women's 
rights groups, trade unions, the Communist Party of 
India-Marxist (CPI-M), and the Congress Party.  Bishop of 
Jaipur Oswald Lewis told the assembled crowd that their march 
was "a secular fight against injustice" and demonstrated that 
the people of Rajasthan would fight for human rights and 
justice. 
 
The Chief Minister Has Marching Orders 
-------------------------------------- 
 
3.  (C) A RCF delegation met Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje 
on March 21 and presented a memorandum asking her to end 
Rajasthan Minister Madan Delivar's campaign against EM.  John 
Dayal of the All India Christian Council (AICC) told us on 
March 22 that the CM did not formally respond to the memo, 
but confirmed that she has been instructed by the Prime 
Minister to investigate the situation and that she will do 
so.  An AICC delegation also submitted a report to PM 
Manmohan Singh following its three day visit to Kota. 
Delegation members told the press that although the state 
administration was "overwhelmed by political pressure from 
the BJP," the EM orphanage was "functioning properly." 
 
The Legislative Assembly Debate Comes Close to Fisticuffs 
--------------------------------------------- ------------ 
 
4.  (SBU) A March 21 debate over the EM situation in the 
Rajasthan Legislative Assembly almost resulted in a fight 
between Congress and BJP MPs, leading to two adjournments. 
Congress MPs accused the BJP government of using the EM's 
alleged publication of the book "Haqeeqat" (Reftel) as a 
pretext to harass the institution.  BJP MPs responded that 
 
NEW DELHI 00001953  002 OF 003 
 
 
Congress was siding with "anti-national elements who had 
insulted Hindu deities and Indian culture." Congress MPs 
demanded Delivar's immediate expulsion from the cabinet to 
protect the rule of law.  He responded to the press that even 
if expelled, he would continue to oppose EM activities in the 
Kota region. 
 
EM President Samuel Thomas Remains in Detention 
--------------------------------------------- -- 
 
5.  (SBU) EM attorney Mohammad Akram told the press on March 
21 that Samuel Thomas appeared for his bail hearing on March 
20 and was ordered to remain in police custody for three more 
days.  He noted that the district police had requested Thomas 
be held an additional five days, but the District Magistrate 
limited it to three.  Unless there are new developments in 
the case, it now appears likely that Thomas will be released 
on bail on March 23. 
 
BJP Ready to Move On 
-------------------- 
 
6.  (C) In a March 21 meeting with Poloff, BJP MP, journalist 
and Hindutva ideologue Balbir Punj expected the EM issue to 
die down in a matter of weeks, now that the EM has agreed to 
stop its circulation of "Haqeeqat" and the Samuel Thomas has 
been detained for offending Hindu religious sentiments.  Punj 
maintained that Hindus have no objection to Christians or 
Christianity and regard Christ as an incarnation of God.  The 
problem is not with religion, he noted, but with the EM, 
which has shown utter disregard for Hindu religious 
sentiments.  Pointing out that Hindus believe that "no one's 
God should be insulted," he claimed that the perception in 
Rajasthan is that EM is "arrogant" and insensitive.  Balbir 
insisted that the BJP focus was on "Haqeeqat" and that EM 
cannot deny that it was distributing the offensive book free 
of cost to Hindus who were not interested and did not want 
it. 
 
7.  (C) Punj acknowledged that he had no faith in the Indian 
police or justice system, that innocent Christians may have 
been the victimized by over-zealous or prejudiced policemen 
and judges, and that there may have been instances of mob 
violence by Hindus who tried to take justice into their own 
hands.  However, he was adamant that this does not justify 
EM's combative stance toward Hindus and Hinduism, saying that 
the entire controversy could have been avoided had the 
Mission shown more sensitivity. 
 
Post Raises Issue with GOI 
-------------------------- 
 
8. (SBU) Poloff raised this religious freedom issue with the 
GOI's National Human Rights Commission (NHRC).  NHRC Chairman 
Nirmal Singh told us March 21 that he met with the Rajasthan 
Director General of Police and Home Secretary the prior week 
and requested a full report on the situation involving EM in 
Kota.  He also told them to restore food and electricity to 
the EMI orphanage regardless of any legal proceedings against 
the group.  Singh pointed out that publishing the book 
"Haqeeqat" was not a good idea, as people in rural Rajasthan 
tend to be "more aggressive and sensitive on communal 
issues."  He noted that the NHRC will take action if an 
expected report from the Rajasthan Chief Secretary confirms 
that the state machinery has failed. 
 
Comment: A Lose-Lose Issue for the BJP 
-------------------------------------- 
 
NEW DELHI 00001953  003 OF 003 
 
 
 
9.  (C) Delivar's anti-EM campaign angered the vast majority 
of Hindus who oppose extremism and put Rajasthan under the 
intense and unwelcome scrutiny of Indian political parties 
and human rights groups.  The huge anti-BJP outcry has been a 
political Godsend for Congress, which is determined to take 
maximum advantage of it.  Unlike in neighboring Gujarat, 
Hindutva has been a losing issue in Rajasthan, where communal 
relations are generally good.  Delivar's attack against EM 
has become a millstone around the neck of the BJP, and Punj's 
statements indicate that the party may have already decided 
to make some face-saving combative declarations and quietly 
back down.  EM's presence in Kota has been a long-simmering 
controversy in Rajasthan and these communal confrontations 
are becoming a yearly occurrence.  Last year, similar 
incidents took place and quickly died down after the Hindutva 
organizations scored some propaganda points.  With the BJP 
losing political standing in Rajasthan every day, it is 
unlikely that CM Raje will allow the hard-line elements in 
the BJP to continue the intimidation and legal assaults on 
the ministry, especially now that "Haqeeqat" has been 
withdrawn and the case has moved into the courts.
