Divisive Leftist Liberal Agenda Fails As Rat-Hole Miners Chant ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jai’ And ‘Modi Ji Ki Jai’ Slogans

With the nation finally heaving a huge sigh of relief after the 41 workers’ successful rescue from the Silkyara tunnel, liberals and leftist media were focused on naming the rat-hole miners who were able to cross the final hurdle that enabled the rescue of the trapped tunnel workers.

Notorious senior journalists associated with NDTV at some point in time, Rajdeep Sardesai and his wife Sagarika Ghose, were among those who also carried on this divisive agenda. Sagarika posted on her X handle, 

“The roll of honour of rescuers at #UttarakhandTunnelRescue : DG NDRF Atul Karwal, Lt Gen. Harpal Singh, Syed Ata Hasnain of NDMA, Mahmood Ahmed, managing director NHIDCL, Cyriac Joseph of Squadrone, and rat hole miners, from India’s poorest sections, among them Wakeel Khan and Munna Quraishi. Politicians are intent on dividing us, but it is when India rises above divisive identities, that India can move even a mountain.”

Rajdeep Sardesai wrote, “Roll call of honour: Remember the names of our Rat miner super—heroes: Feroz and Munna Quereshi, Rashid, Irshad, Naseem, Monu, Naseer, Ankur, Jatin, Saurabh, Waqeel Hasan, Devender. Aap sabko desh ka salaam! When India stays united, India wins!” on his X handle. 

Self-styled fact-checked Mohammed Zubair was not far behind in singing praises for one particular community. He shared pictures of the 12 rat-hole miners who enabled the rescue operation and also a clipping of a news article that detailed the circumstances under which they carried out the operation.

Member of Polit Bureau Subhashini Ali posted on her handle, “Names of our Rat miner superheroes: Feroz, Munna Qureshi, Rashid, Irshad, Naseem, Monu, Naseer, Ankur, Jatin, Saurabh, Waqeel Hasan, Devender. Aap sabko salaam! Agar Dhami aur BJP ka Uttarakhand se Muslims ko bhagane ki yojna safal ho jaati to kya hota. EKTA MEIN HI TAAKAT!”

(What if Dhami and BJP’s agenda of chasing Muslims from Uttarakhand was successful? Unity is strength)

No doubt, rat-mining or rat-hole mining is no easy task for humans, given its name and the nature and size of the hole in question. The nation lauds the efforts of every single person associated with the rescue while also offering prayers to every single person trapped inside the tunnel and the rescue persons carrying out the nerve-wracking task of rescue. The nation did not see them as Hindus or Muslims or Christians – the prayers were for everyone equally to come out safely. 

Divisive media however needed to highlight everyone’s names to indicate their religion. This agenda received a royal slapping when the rat miners shouted slogans, “Bharat Mata Ki Jai, Narender Modi Ki Jai” 

This only goes to show that people are united and do not look at each other based on their religion or names but as Indians, as people who did a fantastic job to rescue the trapped workers. 

Netizens slammed each of these people for promoting the divisive narrative when people were in fact hailing the members of the rescue team as a whole. 

Netizens also reminded the fact checker and the liberal media that only terrorists have no religion while rat-hole miners have.

 

 

 

 

 

Several questioned why the names of other rescue operation heroes were never mentioned.

 

Such collapses and accidents occur pretty much worldwide in mines and construction sites, especially tunnels. The under-construction Silkyara tunnel is probably one of the toughest ones to work on since it is the Himalayas we are dealing with. 

Peddling divisive agenda by the playbook by the leftist liberals is no surprise. This time, their agenda failed and their masks came off well before they tried to set a narrative.
