How Nehru Helped Convert NE to Christianity!

By: K. I. P.

The spread of Christianity in the North East States of India between the years 1901 and 2001 has seen a sea change. It is a phenomenal growth from almost nil to almost 100% in 2001. In 1901, there was almost nil presence of Christianity in these States and in 2001, they are nearing 100% of the population. First have a look at the religious demographic data of these States in an ‘Illustrated Presentation on Religious Demographics in India by A P Joshi, M D Srinivas, and J K Bajaj’ –

Imperialism invades and occupies other countries not merely by military and political means. It is the mentality of power of a people that persuades it to invade and occupy other people’s lands. Imperialism adapts itself to suit the changed circumstances and utilizes all means at its disposal, including religion, culture, language etc., to secure its imperial ends. When it is no longer possible for it to attack and occupy other countries with military power, imperialism adapts itself, changes it color and invades from within – within in the form of dubious religious conversion of other people. This technique makes that foreign land a soft ground – a pulp ground – ready to welcome those outsiders, allowing them to do what they could not have done  with them (people of a different faith or culture) with the assistance of their military.

Today, see the situation of these Indian States of North East! There the Christian Church leaders are openly exhorting their followers to get united to defeat Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, in the ensuing electoral battles. In a liberal democracy, like India, is it a religious work of such leaders or a sabotage of democracy from within? It is precisely for this reason that countries like China keep a strict vigil and check over the unwanted Christian religious propagation activities.

But, first let us see how this sea change has been made in India between 1901 and 2001 and who is primarily responsible for the same.

The Christian memetic virus entered the Northeastern states of India in 1871. However, the progress was slow. In 1931, the Christian population in the NE states, barring Mizoram, was around 15%. In Mizoram, it was 47% – although it appears that the Mizo were only namesake Christians or there was a reporting error because the 1941 census didn’t find any Christians there. There could’ve been a sort of ghar wapsi as well.

In Nagaland, the freedom fighter Rani Gaidinliu strove to revive the traditional animist religion. I am unaware of any such concerted effort in Mizoram. However, the British (and hence American) stranglehold in NE was weakening during WW2. So, the missionary parasites, lacking imperial backing, left the region. So, the local Mizos might’ve abandoned Christianity.

In any case, the decline of Christianity in NE between 1931 and 1941 is well recorded. There were hardly any Christians in Nagaland, Mizoram, or Meghalaya whereas Manipur had a 5% Christian population in 1941.

However, in the very next decade, Christianity spread like the plague in these states. Mizoram had become 90% Christian whereas Nagaland had become 46% Christian. The reason for this spread is two-fold.

First, it was primarily American Southern Baptist variety which spread in these regions. It is closest to the original form of Christianity and is a nasty memetic virus. It is the same variety which is spreading in Tamilnadu and Andhra these days. In my forthcoming speech on May 12, I will explain why this virus is cancer-like in its metastasizing capability and hence cannot be ignored as anything but an existential threat.

Second, Nehru facilitated the rapid evangelization of NE. In 1942, Reginald Coupland had accompanied Cripps to India. He strove to ensure that the missionary agenda in the NE states continued uninterrupted. Nehru acquiesced.

So, in the subsequent years, when the constitution was written, tribal rights in these states were made nonexistent and the missionaries were given a free hand. Missionaries advised Nehru and he followed their diktats. In this context one of the names worth mentioning is of Verrier Elwin. He was anthropological advisor (!!) to Nehru and his government. In this age of internet hidden or unknown information is coming in the public domain. One such unknown fact is a report dated 15th October, 1964 published by ‘Patriot’ a Delhi newspaper. This report states that Dr. Verrier Elwin and Nehru had signed an agreement whereby ‘Sadhus’ (Hindu religious monks) were not allowed to enter Nagaland. Some gentleman has procured a photocopy of this reprt from the National Archieves of India and made it public on social media. Just look at this video: https://youtu.be/LU_MxRW90bM?si=LmptCOOuPlk3O_Lq

Durga Das writes about this in “India: From Curzon to Nehru & After”; see especially at p. 274. That was the period when Christianity virtually decimated Hinduism and tribal religions in NE.

Nehru was not merely a white man’s asslicker but he was a self-loathing scumbag. He hated everything Indian and Hindu. He once wrote his father that he wanted to move from Cambridge to Oxford because there were too many Indians in Cambridge. He was the one responsible for the rapid Christianization of the Seven Sisters.

Reviving Hinduism and confronting Christianity would necessitate recognizing Nehru as the vanguard of the Christian memetic virus. Nehru must be criticized for what he had actively helped to achieve.

However, it is a simple fact that virtually all leaders including Sardar Patel, Rajaji, Rajendra Prasad, and Ambedkar turned a blind eye towards Nehru’s schemes in the proselytization of NE. This is why I find it extremely hard to respect any of them without reservation. The only man who stood like a lion was S. P. Mukherjee. His influence was limited to Bengal though.

Of course, there is hope. The waning of Christianity between 1931 and 1941 gives us precious insights into how we could accomplish the same results now. This waning of Christianity between 1931 and 1941 was because of one reason: Stoppage of financial support to Christian Missionaries by the white imperislists (because of their involvement in WW 2 and consequential inability to fund missionaries).

The government of India would do well now to completely cut the pipeline of imperialists’ funding of missionaries under dubious pretexts, like providing education, hospitals, helping poor tribals etc. This fund ends up in financing missionaries in their religious conversion work. The cutting of fund pipeline can be achieved by keeping keen watch over missionaries activities and strictly applying the provisions of Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act, 2010 over their misuse of foreign funds.

A personal experience of someone who has toured Karnataka just before May 2018 Assembly Election:

Copying my personal experience while campaigning door to door in Karnataka. This matches with my exact experience in last 5 years of a very close observation.

Christians are some of the most bigoted people in India and have a visceral hatred of Modi as they think he somehow represents Indic pride.

The conversion process trains the brain at very subliminal levels to start hating Indic culture more than any guy else. The worst part is that most Christians hide behind progressive / cool/ modern /liberal tag & innocent Hindus are unable to call them out on their bluff in public forums & general whatsapp groups.

Read on to know more of my observations during this #DoortoDoor campaign:

1. PM @narendramodi enjoys a huge fan following amongst children. They adore him. They know about him. Though still not voter base or though Modi ain’t a actor, dancer.
2. Women: So many women admire & respect the PM. They do go to vote.
3. Christians: A large percentage dislike PM @narendramodi. They see no good in him and just refuse to vote for him or BJP and the teachings of this come from Church/priest down.#KarnatakaElections
4. Church takes special interest in elections and funds elections if candidates are Catholics.
5. They are ready to vote for other religions’ candidate from another party but not for a Hindu candidate from bjp. That can’t seem to be changed at this moment. #KarnatakaElections2018
6. I did meet Muslim families who do vote for bjp. A tiny % but not a single Christian family yet that would vote for bjp.
7. But of course Hindus are all divided among Congress, bjp, communists!  #KarnatakaElections2018
