{greenyouth} Re: condemn hindutwa attack

[Venugopalan K M]

dear friends,

my suggestions:
1.There must be  immediate initiative to demand action to book the culprits, for which a broader platform comprising all the non-sangh parivar parties and groups may be made for signing up a petition to the home ministry.The recent and other acts of vandalism by these outfits may be cited.
2.Let us not forget that this is an instance where the power of ideology takes forms of brutal voilence, and yet, counter initiatives/activities often simply fail thanks to the superciliousness of individuals,groups and parties who might otherwise be genuinely concerned, though.
3.Principled avoidance of display of  solicitude to these lawless and bigotist leaders, albeit in "personal' relations may be called for. It may be noted that there is nothing "personal" in such gestures other than disguised political endorsements of their legitimacy of existence of their ilk.
4.Media, especially the print media may be persuaded to desist from entertaining these "nationalists"by giving supportive/neutral  coverage for their utterances of hate. Even the readers of such papers may be persuaded to unsubscribe such newspapers and journals .

Friends,

 

Today, a group of yuvamorcha activists entered the satyagraha

pandal of anti death penalty committe at trivandrum and assaulted

the satyagrahi, Rajmohan K K. They were returning after "hanging"

Muhammad Afsal Guru's effigee.

 

this is a grave development. Do think of ways in which we could effectively

condemn this fascist move and strengthen the democratic movement.

 

please forward this message to friends and suggest what you could personally do in this

 

The satyagraha movement is gaining momentum . K. K. Koch, T. K . Vasu,Chandran.K.K,
