"Now we can finally talk about important matters." Chief Judge Clark eagerly said that he had been waiting for a long time. The administrative officials were full of food, but the judicial officials couldn't even drink soup. Is this fair?
This is not fair, but Alan Wilson said that it is better to give the Commissioner of Ceylon a commendation order first, and spend a few days reporting on the actions of British Ceylon with an attitude that has nothing to do with this time.
Then wait for the statement of the Minister of Indian Affairs and the ferment of world public opinion before taking large-scale actions.
"Before that, we can take out a few typical examples to test the waters. Of course, it is not appropriate to announce it. It must be kept secret before large-scale operations. The use of public opinion is mainly concentrated outside British India. All countries and colonies , we all know we are saving Indian girls, but Indians are not yet fit to know."
Both Sir Barron and Chief Judge Clark nodded, which made it more logical. Clark thought for a while and said, "Even if the temple itself doesn't exist, we can find a few women to stuff them in and frame them."
"For beneficial social changes, I don't think the term "staining" is appropriate. It's a white lie." Sir Baron corrected indifferently, "It's just a grassroots Indian official. Will it be against our judicial officials?"
"Probably not. Religion is important? Blood is important? In the end, it's not as important as money." Alan Wilson shook his head. "The beneficiaries also include grassroots Indian officials. It's a question of who gets the most money."
"Then Alan, prepare a commendation order and send it to McLean." Sir Barron ordered Alan Wilson, and then refocused on Clark, "We can also start here. "
On the contrary, the center of the storm was calm, but the visit of Indian Affairs Minister Persik Lawrence in C was like someone throwing a bomb into the hut, which had a very exaggerated effect.
News about British India has appeared in the mainland at a very high frequency since the end of the war, and it has been nearly a year. From curiosity at the beginning to disgust afterwards, this Indian newspaper has been the darling of the newspaper for nearly a year. This time, the local citizens finally remembered it thoroughly.
Various situations in British India were not only fermented locally, but spread rapidly through the public opinion hegemony of the British Empire, and spread to Europe, British colonies, and even distant Canada, Australia and other places.
The speed of information dissemination in modern society is so fast. Once London knows about it, almost all English-speaking countries will know about it, including the United States.
It’s just that in the United States, which later generations held high the banner of human rights, the report on the incident of the Indian saint is not like other English-speaking regions, which has a very obvious tendency, but is guessing what the British are going to do.
From the perspective of the United States, it absolutely does not want Britain to maintain its rule in British India. Once the Anglo-Indian model is maintained, the potential opponent is not just the Soviet Union.
Although from various channels, many European countries seem to have negotiated, hoping that the United States will take a tough attitude towards the Soviet Union, but so far, the Truman administration is still waiting to see who should target Britain and the Soviet Union.
Although there have been obvious differences between the United States and the Soviet Union because of the problems of Japan and the Korean Peninsula.
But the threat of the United Kingdom is no less than that of the Soviet Union. Fortunately, there are voices in the United Kingdom to abandon India. The United States wants to see what the final result will be. If Britain wants to use tough means to maintain its rule, then the United States must temporarily let go of the illusion that blood is thicker than water, and treat Britain with a liberating attitude.
The hegemony of public opinion in the British Empire is useless to the United States, but it is still very useful to other British colonies. Other English-speaking countries and regions were directly captured by news from British India.
Especially in the British colonies in Africa, the local elites looked at the Indians who maintained the colonial rule with strange eyes.
The news about the Holy Maiden in India is well known in the British colonies. British India is still the same. The report that our India is too powerful is still the mainstream. The only difference is that Donald Maclean has arrived in Ceylon.
Beneath the calm surface, there is a preparation ready to go. Alan Wilson is still a little excited. After all, this kind of sporty action seems to have never happened in a place like India. No one knows what the result will be. have no idea.
Vivien Leigh is the one who can feel the change of this man the most. The international movie queen who has unlocked all the poses feels that the young man who is already very motivated has worked especially hard these days.
It even made Vivien Leigh a little overwhelmed, and it was another very enjoyable script exchange. The tired Vivien Leigh looked at Alan Wilson's satisfied face, "You are too much, I am a public figure, you want to make my belly big What? How will the movie be shot then?"
"I was wrong, mainly because you are too beautiful." Alan Wilson apologized with a playful smile, "Vivian, can't you feel my feelings for you?"
"Don't make trouble! I have a husband, and I'm married." Vivien gave Alan Wilson a white look, "I promise you, just to solve my physical needs."
"Yeah, just like the so-called eminent monks and elders. It's just that they are more sanctimonious." Alan Wilson looked at the time, and it was time to leave in disgrace. He picked it up by the waist and walked to the bathroom. The battle scene still needs to be cleaned up.
Hindu temples did not understand such a simple truth. Half a month after Donald McLean went to war in British Ceylon, on the first day of May, the Supreme Court of British India, which had already been prepared, finally took action.
Chief Justice Clark officially signed the executive order on the protection of women's rights on the proposal of the Secretary of State for Indian Affairs. Destroy the temple where there is a group of saints, arrest the monks in the temple, and rescue the girl in the magic cave.
In fact, the action was taken a day earlier than Clark's administrative order. This was to prevent some powerful temples from getting news. The action under the pretext of liberating the girl started amidst the energetic actions of judicial officials.
The actions of the Supreme Court have received strong cooperation from the chief executives of the provinces. Administrative officials are not allowed to eat meat, and judicial officials are not even allowed to drink soup. Since they cannot divide the cake, they have to make the cake bigger.
The actions of the judicial officials also received the support of the administrative officials. The policemen of British India, under the guidance of the judicial officials who arrived in various places, marched towards temples one by one.
Almost immediately, the temple, already in the eyes of the Supreme Court, was subjected to the first round of raids. Countless respected elders and senior monks were directly captured by the police who fell from the sky.
Many temples even attracted the British garrison, and the high-ranking elders were directly taken away by these hateful colonists. Of course, a young girl was also taken away at the same time.
The Supreme Court, which has been preparing for a long time, and judicial officials have shown extremely high efficiency. Calcutta, Bangalore, and Chennai all started to act at the same time.
Cities like Hyderabad, which are themselves under the control of Ali Khan and the peace sect monarch, want to take this opportunity to destroy the thorn in their eyes. Anyway, the order was issued by the British, and Ali Khan is just cooperating.
In the state of Hyderabad, Ali Khan’s actions are not like other places that have estimated some warmth. The private army in Hyderabad directly started sweeping the Hindu temples in the territory, and directly shot at the temples that dared to resist.
Eighty percent of the population of Hyderabad is Hindus. In such a large state, so many people support these temples. Ali Khan also knows that this is a good opportunity to rob. The four sons were sent out to command the army to do this and get the wealth of these temples.
Coincidentally, the state of Junagadh did the same, and soon found that this was a good opportunity to accumulate wealth. It can also eliminate the forces that usually point and point at the Tubang Maharaja.
As for the other Hindu states, they are just not as outstanding as the two states. Religious feelings, blood is thicker than water, and money is not as important as money at critical moments.
The only embarrassing thing is Kashmir. Hari Singh is very embarrassed. Ninety percent of Kashmir is a peace believer. His maharaja is a Hindu. He cannot attack Hindu temples, and Kashmir itself does not have many Hindu temples.
He can't even learn this. The state that is also a Hindu monarch can at least act on the name of eliminating the black apples of Hinduism, but he can't do so.
Almost from the very beginning, the operation was carried out simultaneously in British-administered places in British India. It is conceivable that the judicial officials had done much homework before taking action.
Even the National Congress Party and the Muslim League were very surprised by the big move of the Governor's Office, but immediately there were two completely different reactions. Is the Governor-General of India suppressing Hinduism and supporting the Muslim League?
The Congress Party quickly stated that this was an unfriendly move by the Governor's Office and should stop immediately, and made a public appeal. At the same time, representatives of the Congress Party have arrived in New Delhi and asked to discuss with the Governor's Office.
Faced with the Congress Party's public appeal, the Governor's Office of India immediately responded publicly, saying that this is an action that has received support from all sectors of society, and at the same time hopes that the Congress Party will pay attention to international public opinion.
"Once a similar movement starts, there will inevitably be some possibility of expansion. But our actions are well-intentioned and supported by the whole world." Alan Wilson raised his wrist and looked at the time, absent-mindedly perfunctory. It's time for the representatives of the big parties to film the show.
If the Ah San on the opposite side is sensible, she should get out of here quickly, don't delay her own affairs, Vivien Li is feeling empty and lonely.
