We are living in a democratic country.
The Governments and all other Institutions are
working for the welfare of the people.We have
a beautiful constitution by name Constitution
of India.We the CSI North Kerala Diocese also have our own constitution. All the members including the Chairman of the Diocese are bound to obey the constitution.No other alternative.
All the elected bodies must function as per the norms written in the constitution.Any common member violates the provisions of the constitution is a crime and causes damage to the whole community.
As you know very well our respected Bishop Dr.Kuruvila keeps violating the constitution as his most favorite hobby.You should not question it because he thinks that he stands above the 'Constitution Of India'.His close allies also propagating the same message and the poor people started believing that 'He is the STATE'. Because of this thought lot of common members were deprived of their basic rights and privileges and all the
burning issues commenced.
By the sweat and blood of the people a God fearing,people friendly Executive committee was elected and they started functioning.But this autocrat has been trying to dismantle this elected body and making hurdles when implementing the decisions.
The last executive committee held on 8.12.2011 had taken number of people friendly decisions.Since the bishop is afraid of so many things, those decisions were so irritating for him.
Lot of irregularities were caught 'black and white'by the committee.
So he just decided to prolong the implementation part.
We came to understand that on 13 th August 2011 the officers met the bishop and requested him to accept the draft of the minutes of the executive committee.(There is a system exists in the diocese that the officers use to get the concurrence of the bishop before sending the draft copies of the minutes to all other exe.committee members).He refused to accept the decisions of the committee in which he too participated.The bishop was trying to leave for Unites States on 14.12.2011 by 2.30 pm.
Suddenly the people came to know about the 'Over Smartness' of the erred bishop and from various places people rushed into shoranur and made a blockade to the bishop's house and started resisting.It was about 5 pm.By around 7.30 pm number of executive committee members went the bishop's house and
requested him to open the door for a peaceful discussion.He opened the door and shouted,abused the elected members like a
'JAMINDHAR'-LANDLORD.
A petition was lodged in the police station against the bishop for abusing the people's representatives.The poor policemen who came to inquire about the incident were also abused by the bishop.He shouted at the policemen.More people reached from different churches by this time.Finally he was compelled to sign on few cheques including Malabar Christian College's.He was purposefully holding this cheque for no reasons but for his igo.The college authorities borrowed money from its well wishers and spent for NAAC accreditation.So pathetic!!
Apart from this he just revoked the order given to Rev.Immanuel Dosan,christ church munnar instructing him to releave the chairmanship and handover the charges to Rev.Jacob Jebharaj(This was a decision taken by the exe.committee but the bishop revoked it in the next day itself as his own).The people came from Munnar were more agitated.
Again the police came and requested the striking believers to wait till the higher police official comes and find out a solution.
In the morning the number of people crossed one hundred.
People conducted a rally to bishop's office shouted slogans and staged dharna in front of the house.Medias and channels were present.The removed school manager Mr.C.M.Babu and
Rev.Trever Jyothish(the only one vicar still supports the bishop!!) were very well present inside his house to
advise the bishop how to tackle the situation by using tears and sympathy factor.Only six people came there to talk for the bishop including Mr.Jacob Mathew(fort cochin) but their voice gone to 'AIR' when police came.
It was heard that the police summoned the bishop to the police office.But by 11.30 am the DySP of Police accompanied by the CI, sub inspectors reached diocesan office premises and they
met the bishop at his house.The bishop.Police and the diocesan
officers had a long discussion.The bishop was compelled to go as per the 'Constitution of our Church' and appropriate decisions were made.He was permitted by the people to leave for United
States.
we are so ashamed to report this matter.Because it is not good for our literate Kerala that the intervention of a police officer
to streamline the administration of a Church and teach the Head of the Church what 'Democracy' is !!!!
This is a peculiar and serious matter.Nobody can digest this.
So immediate intervention of the Synod is required.
Next time the situation may change and the leaders will be in a pathetic condition because they can not control the force of the people.
