Rada Swami Dera

Vikram singh · #1 (**permalink**) 09-Jan-2010, 11:50 AM

Recently I came across this sensational news article published in "Khalsa Fatehnama" magazine.

I am putting a short story here:
Pind Baraich is very close to one of Rada Swami deras. Dera guys wanted to expand there Dera so they asked villagers to sell their land to them. Most of the villagers were not ready to leave their ancestoral homes.

Dera guys starts using other tactis to evacuate the village:
1) Village transformer has been blown and there is no electricity in village for more than one year. Village homes and Gurdwara uses Candles to do their daily chores.
After appealing again and again to various authorities, villagers have been asked to talk with Rada Swami Dera Secretary.
2) Dera gundas often comes to village, frighten some lonely members of families. There have been incidents of violence between Dera and Villagers.

3) The road to the village is digged and is full of ditched. The road is in worse condition for transportation.
4) Some families left the village, others are fighting bravely. Dera guys have digged 30-30 feet ditches by the side of houses and there is danger of house walls falling down.
5) Dera Secretary openly boasts of his political power and claims Badal is with them. He also claims that even congress will not try to mess with their cult.

Some journalists (from tribune) went there to cover their story. They were man-handled by Dera sponsored gundas. A report was published once in Tribune, nothing after that.

This time, a team from Fatehnama went there, with full preparation to cover the story. They took pictures of village and interviews villagers and covered the story.

Only one "Kissan Jathebandi" is somewhat supportng the villagers. None of the religious or social organisation has come in open to support them

If it is all true, then it's a big nexus and it will slowly engulf many villages in many areas.
Can we do something on it?

Radha Soami Dera has encroached upon about 2500 acres of river Beas land by earth filling it . As a result of that about the river Beas has changed its course leading to the submergence of about 5,000 acres of fertile agricultural land down stream . It has rendered hundreds of farmers landless resulting in a few suicides also . The suicide news I saw in PTC News just a few days back .

Once a King was granted a wish...he was given a choice to have his "life" placed in a parrot....and as long as the parrot was well and alive..no weapon on earth could even harm the King....he lived fearlessly knowing only death could come to him IF anything happened to his parrot !! But one day a sage did find out...and told a warrior the secret of whay the King was invincible...the warrior avoided the King and went straight to the parrots cage, and wrung its neck...immediately the King fell down dead !!

My friends village (Dhillon) is on the other side of the Beas, and even they have had problems with these guys. They are NOT good people at all.

Gaini Ji ,
How right you were on this account ? I went to Amritsar on Sunday
I was amazed to know that Bikramjit Singh Majithia the brother in law of Sukhbir Badal was married recently to the grand daughter of Charan Singh ( past Dera head of Radha Soami , Beas ) in Delhi . Badal can stoop so low for the sake of votes that he has joined as the relative of most ANTI-SIKH Dera in whole of the world .

Badal can stoop even LOWER..just wait and see...

Looking from outside in, everything seems to be going bad for Punjab. bad politicians, low industrial output and growth of religious cults. One day the only professions will be politics, deras and farming.

Then they wonder why young men leave Punjab.

Gurfateh,

We shouldn't give our land to any DERA"S no Matter what.

We have only one Guru that is Guru Granth Sahib Ji

Parkash Singh Badal JI, you are the one who we should blame for all those DERA"S in India

Sorry to say but This is Truth nothing but Truth
