Dear John ,
In fact I tried to post it to you for private circulation , however
my computer responded saying , that it is an illegal alias !!!!!
I have written it for the Mathrubhumi at their request and their
are still minor typographical errors as I have written it during
treatment for a severe eye infection as they desired it urgently
As soon as it is published by them , you may use
the article in any other magazine or journal . However
you can proceed to abridge it and await my communication
as to when you are free to publish it after Mathrubhumi has
carried it .
As you know Dr. Binayak Sen and Iliana Sen are facing
terrible persecution and harassment along with many others .
I shall be grateful if you can rally around them .A few days
ago Iliana Sen was wrongly charged by the ATS/Foreigners
Branch for not obtaining permission for some delegates
from Bangladesh , Sri Lanka and Pakistam among other
countries attending a Women's Studies Conference at
Wardha , Maharashtra , though she is not concerned with
the formalities as the Conference was hosted by the Unviversity
itself which made the arrangements for hospitality and the
delegates were cleared from New Delhi .
Please support their case and kindly constitute a special
committee for the cases of victimisation in New Delhi to enable
everyone to look for the necessary support which will be
direly needed in the days ahead . The committee should
include a retired Judge of the Supreme Court or High Court,
eminent journalists , lawyers , among others .
We will need one such Committee in every State strictly
for protection of democratic rights and civil liberties as
there has been an attempt in certain regions to throttle
democratic dissent .
Just when there is a revolt in the hitherto Police States
of the Arab world , we are under siege in India , though
the Radia tapes have revealed the shenanigans of more
than one political party and their lobbyists .
We have taken our Republic and Democracy for
granted whereas we are rapidly being reduced to
a authoritarian /fascist state by political parties
in regional governments of of more than one political
complexion .
The killling of the Additional Collector Sonwane estalbishes
without doubt that the mafia appears to have penetrated
several institutions of the State and honest government
officials themselves along with honest and independent
minded political representatives will be in need of our
committees.
We need to be organized including with funding .
I am ready to concede that not all individuals in every political
party are not tainted and some may be on our side . However
the time for testing has come ...............
We need you in the days ahead, including on the issue
of Palestine .
With warm regards ,
Niloufer Bhagwat
