India has never seemed as helplessly weak as now

Hell has more definitions than heaven, possibly because more of us expect to end up there than in the other place. A cynic described hell as other people. Men of religion generally promise hellfire for the wicked, an image that rather contradicts the doctrine that the body is terminal and soul eternal. A soul can’t get roasted in flames, can it? 
    One much prefers the blind poet Milton’s insight. Heaven is order, he wrote, and hell chaos. By Milton’s standards, the government of Dr Manmohan Singh has already gone to hell. 
    Chaos is the wild weed rooted in corruption. Like an untamed cancer, chaos has destabilized the coalition, corroded governance beyond repair and perverted foreign policy. In 2009 allies were clamoring to attach themselves to Congress. Today the only ally left is Sharad Pawar; even the ever-reliable Dr Farooq Abdullah seems to have turned wobbly. Since UPA continues to survive in office like a patient spread across a table, it has become evident justification for euthanasia. 
    An indecisive Prime Minister spreads uncertainty along every artery of power. He does not speak, and when he does silence seems the better option. He appears to suggest that cliché or evasion are a solution. He demands justice from Pakistanafter Sarabjit’s deliberately authorized murder in a Pak jail, unable to comprehend that India is still awaiting justice for Hafiz Saeed, mastermind of the Mumbai terrorist attack. Pakistan will do nothing beyond raising the occasional flurry of dust; and Dr Singh is unlikely to do anything after the customary waffle. 
    India has become a joke in the Maldives, a foe in Sri Lanka, a doubt in Bangladesh, a shrug in Nepal, a snigger in Pakistan and a taunt in China. Every neighbour has tested Delhi and discovered that this government walks on its knees. India has never seemed as helplessly weak as now. Foreign minister Salman Khurshid thinks China’s incursion into Despang is acne which will disappear — perhaps after an application of a multinational cream. Has no one briefed him or the PM about Chinese revenue officials trying to extend their jurisdiction into Ladakh, or the significant possibility that the area may be rich in un-mined uranium? 
    The Prime Minister has become either the target of dark outrage or the butt of black humour. The insulation that protected him while colleagues were falling on either side in the many corruption battles, has been ripped off by the coalmines allocation scam. The government has only one strategy for all the riveting scandals that have gutted its credibility: the purchase of time through delay or deception. Law minister Ashwani Kumar is caught tampering with the evidence to be presented to the Supreme Court, and gets a ringing vote of confidence from the Prime Minister. The only time Dr Singh shows any determination is when he is defending the indefensible. Additional Solicitor General and CBI counsel exposes the lies of Attorney General Goolam Vahanvati in a public letter, and Vahanvati laughs all the way back to his handsome bungalow in Lutyens Delhi to await the next set of cheques for his services. Laugh if you must, but it does seem entirely appropriate that this legal conspiracy against the Supreme Court began to unravel when Raval encountered Vahanvati in a cloak room. History is never made in a toilet, but farce is. 
    A question is often asked, and never adequately answered except in a partisan sense: why is UPA2 so precisely the opposite of UPA1 in its management of authority and public environment? India’s Marxists believe that UPA lost its harmony once it began reading from a non-Left hymn sheet. That is at best partly true. A second view is that after nine years, every dubious chicken is coming home to roost: decisions like Commonwealth Games extravagance and the telecom scam were made in the first term. A better explanation is that hubris turned virtually every problem at this government’s doorstep into a larger crisis. This arrogance was born of a belief, widely bandied about after victory in 2009, that UPA would remain in power for another 20 years because a broken Opposition had disappeared. Whenever your upturned nose comes in the way of your eyesight, you cannot see the obvious. When Opposition parties fade, the people become the Opposition. 
    A fundamental requirement of any democracy is anger management. Instead of calming periodic outbursts of anger on the street, sometimes led by mavericks, senior ministers went out of their way to provoke the people with insults. Voters were initially puzzled. They expected balm, and got astringent. Slowly their bewilderment consolidated into wrath. An increasingly defensive government sought refuge in belligerence. Ministers can laugh at the people and get promoted by the Prime Minister for their weird sense of humour, but in democracy the last laugh will always be with the people. 
    Hell is many things. It is also the final resting place of the impotent

पाकिस्तान में ज़िंदगी की जंग हारने वाले सरबजीत को लेकर भले ही ये विवाद हो कि वो भारत के जासूस थे या नहीं, लेकिन ये मामला जासूसी की रहस्यमयी दुनिया की तरफ ध्यान खींचता है.

जो जासूस सरकारों के लिए बेहद अहम जानकारी का जरिया होते हैं, उन्हें ही वो अक्सर नहीं स्वीकारती. हालांकि रवींद्र कौशिक जैसे जासूस फिर भी अपनी जान पर खेल इस काम को अंजाम देते हैं.

लेकिन मौत से पहले के उनके कारनामे किसी फ़िल्म से कहीं ज्यादा रोमांचक कहे जा सकते हैं.कौशिक की मौत भी पाकिस्तानी की ही एक जेल में हुई थी.

वो न सिर्फ भारत के लिए जासूसी करने पाकिस्तान गए बल्कि उन्होंने पाकिस्तानी सेना में मेजर तक का पद हासिल कर दिया. बताया जाता है कि पाकिस्तानी सेना में रहते हुए उन्होंने भारत को बहुत अहम जानकारियां दीं.

रॉ के कई पूर्व वरिष्ठ अधिकारियों ने इस संवाददाता से नाम न बताने की शर्त पर इस बात की पुष्टि की है.

माना जाता है कि सलमान खान की फिल्म 'एक था टाइगर' रवींद्र कौशिक की ज़िंदगी से प्रेरित थी.

ये भी कहा जाता है कि तत्कालीन गृहमंत्री एसबी चव्हाण ने उन्हें 'ब्लैक टाइगर' का नाम दिया था.

'जांबाज जासूस'

राजस्थान के श्रीगंगानगर ज़िले के रहने वाले कौशिक ने 23 वर्ष की आयु में स्तानक की पढ़ाई करने के बाद ही भारतीय खुफ़िया एजेंसी रॉ में नौकरी शुरू की.

साल 1975 में कौशिक को भारतीय जासूस के तौर पर पाकिस्तान भेजा गया था और उन्हें नबी अहमद शेख़ का नाम दिया गया. पाकिस्तान पहुंच कर कौशिक ने कराची के लॉ कॉलेज में दाखिल लिया और कानून में स्तानक की डिग्री हासिल की.

जाने के पहले उनका खतना भी कराया गया था.

इसके बाद वो पाकिस्तानी सेना में शामिल हो गए और मेजर के रैंक तक पहुंच गए. लेकिन पाकिस्तान सेना को कभी ये अहसास ही नहीं हुआ कि उनके बीच एक भारतीय जासूस काम कर रहा है.

कौशिक को वहां एक पाकिस्तानी लड़की अमानत से प्यार भी हो गया. दोनों ने शादी कर ली और उनकी एक बेटी भी हुई

दोनों देशों का एक दूसरे पर अविश्वास तनाव की मुख्य वजह माना जाता है

कौशिक ने अपनी जिंदगी के 30 साल अपने घर और देश से बाहर गुजारे.

इस दौरान पाकिस्तान के हर कदम पर भारत भारी पड़ता था क्योंकि उसकी सभी योजनाओं की जानकारी कौशिक की ओर से भारतीय अधिकारियों को दे दी जाती थी.

कैसे खुला राज

लेकिन 1983 में कौशिक का राज खुल गया. दरअसल रॉ ने ही एक अन्य जासूस कौशिक से मिलने पाकिस्तान भेजा था जिसे पाकिस्तानी खुफ़िया एजेंसी ने पकड़ लिया.

पूछताछ के दौरान इस जासूस ने अपने इरादों के बारे में साफ़ साफ़ बता दिया और साथ ही कौशिक की पहचान को भी उजागर कर दिया.

हालांकि कौशिक वहां से भाग निकले और उन्होंने भारत से मदद मांगी, लेकिन भारत सरकार पर आरोप लगते हैं कि उसने उन्हें भारत लाने में कोई दिलचस्पी नहीं दिखाई गई.

आखिरकार पाकिस्तानी सुरक्षा एजेंसियों ने कौशिक को पकड़ लिया और सियालकोट की जेल में डाल दिया. वहां न सिर्फ उनका शोषण किया गया बल्कि उन पर कई आरोपों में मुकदमा भी चला.

बताते हैं कि वहां रवींद्र कौशिक को लालच दिया गया कि अगर वो भारतीय सरकार से जुड़ी गोपनीय जानकारी दे दें तो उन्हें छोड़ दिया जाएगा. लेकिन कौशिक ने अपना मुंह नहीं खोला, पाकिस्तान में कौशिक को 1985 में मौत की सजा सुनाई गई जिसे बाद में उम्रकैद में तब्दील कर दिया गया.

वो मियांवाली की जेल में रखे गए और 2001 में टीबी और दिल का दौरा पड़ने से उनकी मौत हो गई.
