The community owes a lot to the HINDRAF awakening, and to find that such news can even see the light of the day speaks bad of the community. Vasantha Kumar, VK Regu, and spiritual advisor Ramaji are <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/malaysiakini.com\/news\/88832\">accused<\/a> by Waytha as plotting to break HINDRAF and register it under their names and later be a tool of the authorities. Waytha says that Vasantha is an agent planted by the police, while the other two are conspiring with him (NOTE to myself: Vasantha joined Hindraf last year September).<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Their mission is to split Hindraf, then pick up the pieces, re-brand<br \/>\nand re-launch it under their leadership, which would be subservient to<br \/>\nthe establishment.<\/p>\n<p>Vasanthakumar is the main man behind the government plot, with Ramaji and Regu as assistants. They have betrayed Hindraf.<\/p>\n<p>Undoubtedly<br \/>\nthe trio are collaborating with police intelligence, government<br \/>\nofficers and certain political leaders to break up Hindraf and dilute<br \/>\nits struggle.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>VK Regu denied the allegations and demanded that Waytha provides proof. Vasantha also denied any links with the police.<\/p>\n<p>Waytha says that he has proof of Regu and Ramaji meeting up with officials from PM&#8217;s department and top MIC leaders in the last few months.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Regu has claimed that he was the Hindraf founder secretary and this<br \/>\nwas stated in the application submitted on Oct 23 to the Registrar of<br \/>\nCompanies when Hindraf was registered as a enterprise.  He also<br \/>\nclaimed to have accompanied Waythamoorthy to submit the 18-point<br \/>\nmemorandum on Hindu rights and interests to the Prime Minister\u2019s Office<br \/>\nin Putrajaya last year.  Waythamoorthy confirmed both the claims,<br \/>\nbut said Regu was removed from the group immediately after the<br \/>\napplication was submitted for &#8220;acting against its interests.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Asked<br \/>\nwhether Regu\u2019s expulsion was recorded in the minutes of any Hindraf<br \/>\nmeetings, Waythamoorthy\u2019s reply was in the negative, saying: &#8220;As an<br \/>\ninformal organisation solely managed by him, meetings were never held.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The revelation by Waytha was sparked by the HINDRAF led prayers organised at the Permatang Pauh by-election time. This prayer caught the eye because:<\/p>\n<p>1. Prime Minister himself dropped by! <br \/>2. PM ACCEPTED the 18-point memorandum from the representatives there<br \/>3. The prayer was done in a CHINESE TEMPLE!<br \/>4. The police PROTECTED the prayer organisers, instead of chasing them away!<br \/>5. HINDRAF loyalist who protested againsts the prayers were attacked and some arrested.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I doubt that this is the end of the story. More details will be revealed in time to come. I won&#8217;t be surprised if MIC has a role in this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After Waytha dropped a bomb saying 3 main leaders of HINDRAF are actually conspiring with the police, MIC, and government, the Indian community is having a seizure.
