ITAUKEI Fijians must ensure they do not lose their identity, language and culture to globalisation. And their brothers of Indian descent, who have made Fiji their home, must help them.

Those are the words of Swami Agnivesh, president of the World Council of Arya Samaj and a champion of the movement against bonded labour.

Mr Agnivesh, while speaking in an interview at the Arya Samaj head office in New Delhi, said that during his trip to Fiji a few years back, he witnessed how simple the indigenous people were.

"I was amazed at how tall and handsome the Fijians were," he said.

"I said my goodness, their whole breed is something different — I like them very much."

This unusual swami or religious teacher who has been consistently doing battle on behalf of the poor, the weak and the defenceless in India, said he was humbled by the way the indigenous community always shared, especially their meals.

"When a Fijian sits to take his or her meal, they call those passing through to share it with them — whatever little food he or she has, they share it," he said.

Mr Agnivesh, who looks like a sadhu or holy man and talks like a politician voicing the case of the underprivileged millions in India, said this concept was part of the vedic culture or the Vedas.

"They inspire in us a sharing and caring culture and not selfishness," said the social activist who believes that in this civilised world, there is great selfishness.

"The big countries eat just not their own food, they grab the food of the poor too," he added.

He said the world was at the height of selfishness and greed.

"The greed is responsible for the economic meltdown," he said.

Mr Agnivesh, a former chairperson of the United Nations Trust Fund on Contemporary Forms of Slavery, termed greed as another created god.

New Delhi: As the testimonies of the eyewitnesses coming through the Media, Fact-Finding Reports of different Civil / Democratic Right Teams and the statements of different social-political forces (including the Congress Party of Chhattisgarh ) confirmed that the killing of the adivasis was a heinous massacre committed by the COBRA Battalion of the CRPF and the Chhattisgarh Police, under the command of top police officials. Even the Union Tribal Minister Mr. K C Deo has said that ‘17 innocent citizens, who were unarmed, who were wearing just a dhoti or a baniyan and who did not even have a sickle or a knife’ had been killed by the CRPF.

But still the central Home Minister and the top officials of CRPF are claiming that these adivasis have been killed in a "fierce" gunfight in the dense jungles of Dantewada on June 27-28 in a joint anti-Maoist operation by the CRPF and state police. This is really a matter of grave concern for all the justice loving progressive and democratic forces of our country.

Swami Agnivesh emphasized on a common strategy to fight with this problem, he told that people must know the truth. He said that the political solutions of these problems must come from the public. He suggesting raising awareness and a nationwide common group to fight for right and to prevent any such incidents.

Himanshu Kumar, a well known activist who is working for adivasis, narrated letters written to him by adivasis and also shared his experiences and view point. He told that President of India is the main custodian of adivasis and thus it automatically becomes his responsibility to react and to come forward on such issue. We also should lodge complaints against guilty.

Prof Nandini Sunder, who recently visited the Bijapur to meet the tribes there described horrible situation there. She told that many things, due to many reasons, are unknown to general public and told that she told about hospitalized persons there whose medical assistance is being provided while they are handcuffed and monitored by armed guards.

Bimal bhai said that the strategy should be such that it comes to light without fear. Any such attempt to suppress the voice of adivasis must be defeated by collective effort of adivasis and non-adivasis.

Prof Ashutosh Kumar said that adivasis are the important part of Indian culture, while it is clear that corporate groups need mining and other works in forests and for that displacement of adivasis becomes necessary. All these things are related to inhumane development and capitalism.

Prof John Dayal described the issue as a different thinking and approach of system that is not dependent over persons who are in government but in fact it is towards legality and technicality of the terms and provisions. He said that for example, centre directs about abandoning the security operations in case of human shield are provided in those areas, but who will define the 'human shield'? He informed that there are many loopholes in system to carry out such things.

Dr. Marianus Kujur described the problem with the division in society, with rich and poor and with powerful and powerless. He also told that until common urban population will not be aware enough to raise voice for their co-citizens, the fight will be incomplete.

Youth activists Anisuzaman from Campus Front said “This is not only the problem of adivasis but many other section of the nation like dalits, minorties and etc. Moreover the problem is coming from one side which is the state. Thus all the oppressed section come together work against the oppression”.

Many students and youth activists were present there and they all agreed on building a common platform to fight on such humanitarian issue.

Resolutions:
1. All the CRPF and COBRA personnel who participated in the massacre near Sarkeguda village must be charged under Section 302 of IPC and under the SC, ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act and prosecuted.

2. All the victim families of this massacre must be given appropriate compensation.

The discussion was organized by Mission Bharathiyam and National Confederation of Human Rights Organisation (NCHRO).

Civil society demands Govt. to kill poverty not the poor

New Delhi: An Open Discussion on the theme Kill Poverty Not The Poor- Stop Killing Innocent Adivasis was held on Monday at Indian Social Institute, Lodhi Road, New Delhi, jointly by Mission Bhartiyam and National Confederation of Human Rights Organisation (NCHRO).

Many students, activists and academicians participated in discussion to share the views and to find out a common strategy to prevent any such incidents in future. Speakers included Swami Agnivesh, Dr John Dayal, Himanshu Kumar, Nandini Sunder, Advocate Mubeen Akthar, Bimal Bhai, Prof Ashutosh Kumar, Dr. Marianus Kujur and youth activist Anisuzaman of Campus Front.

Adivasis or tribals among minorities have always been at the receiving end of the society and establishment. Denial of justice to them and violence directed at them continue even today despite announced official policies and declarations to the contrary. In 1990, the National Commission on Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes found that the main causes of ‘atrocities’ against tribals were land disputes, alienation of tribal land, bonded labour, indebtedness, and non-payment of minimum wages. The adivasis are handicapped by poverty, illiteracy, economic dependence and ignorance of the law. In recent years it has been reported that in the combat against armed Maoists and naxals innocent adivasis and tribals are also being killed. The latest incident took place on the night of 28th June 2012 when the adivasi peasants of Sarkeguda, Kottaguda and Rajpenta (Bijapur district of south Chhattisgarh) gathered to plan the performance of the traditional festival Beej Pandum (seed festival). They were surrounded by hundreds of Police and Para-military forces. The armed forces resorted to indiscriminate firing killing 17 adivasis (including 6 minors) and several others were injured seriously. Two other villagers were likewise killed near Jagargunda village of Sukma district in the same night, and were shown as casualties of an ‘encounter’ between the Maoists and the armed forces.

As the testimonies of the eyewitnesses coming through the Media, Fact Finding Reports of different Civil / Democratic Right Teams and the statements of different social-political forces (including the Congress Party of Chhattisgarh) now confirm that the killing of the adivasis was a heinous massacre committed by the Cobra battalion of the CRPF and the Chhattisgarh Police.

Pakistan Supreme Court tough stand on mega corruption is inspiring. Agnivesh

Pakistan Supreme Court tough stand on mega corruption is inspiring. Agnivesh

New Delhi

13^th July 2012

Congratulation to Supreme Court of Pakistan which has given a tough warning to Prime Minister Raja Parvez Ashraf about taking action on corruption charges against Pakistan’s President Asif Ali Zardari. Our country also needs similar steps.

            In 1990 V.P Singh government was formed as a result of movement against Rs. 65 crore corruption in Bofors gun deal. Now the mega corruption charges of couple of lakhs of crore have come to light. This run away corruption is talking place when we boast of two successive incorruptible Prime Ministers, Atal Behari Vajpayee & Manmohan Singh.

            It is open secret that the looted Indian wealth has been stashed in Swiss banks and other tax havens. The government is taking shelter under the so called secrecy treaties. In the neighboring country the Supreme Court has shown tremendous judicial will to unearth the black money by invoking contempt proceedings against the erstwhile Prime Minister Yusuf Reza Gilani which resulted in his unseating. Now the new Prime Minister Raja Parvez Ashraf has been served notice to take action on the same ground by 25^th July.

But why is the Supreme Court of the largest democracy in the world fighting shy of being similarly tough and uncompromising on the issue of India’s plundered wealth?  

Why have they not served an ultimatum to the Government of India? Particularly when our Hon’ble Judges know too well that our government is not very sincere and prompt in giving this country a strong LokPal. If the people of Pakistan could feel empowered by the tough line taken by their Supreme Court why we Indians are being deprived of such badly needed sense empowerment?

PRESS RELEASE

In the first ever cold blooded massacre of 19 poor adivasi boys, girls and men has shocked the whole nation. The fact that this unprovoked mass killing took place under the joint operation command directly under the Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram and Dr. Raman Singh , Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh and carried out by 300 central Reserve Police Force as well as COBRA ( Combined Battalion for Resolute Action ) makes this diabolic mass killing the most sinister ever.

            Immediately after the macabre mass murder, the Union Minister for Home P. Chidambaram and the CRPF  commanders in the field claimed it to be the first ever most successful anti naxal operation. It said that they have killed 17 hard core Maoists and captured two live. Only six of their jawans got injured. Their biggest ever success against Maoists!

            But as I maintained in my statement as early as on 28^th June morning and later corroborated by many independent journalists, it turned out to be a cold blooded mass murder of innocent tribals including their young children.

            The latest to corroborate is the enquiry report by none other then congress party MLA from Konta, Kawasi, Lakma, himself a tribal leader and his ten colleagues. This report has been upheld by Ajeet Jogi ( a tribal former Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh ), Charan Das Mahant Union Minister of State for Agriculture and Nan Kumar Patel, the state Congress party President.

            We demand:-

1.       The ;Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh should take moral responsibility for this gruesome incident, apologise to the AdivasiCommunity in particular and the nation in general and forthwith sack his Home Minister Mr. P. Chidambaram.

2.       Order highest level Judicial Enquiry or a Special Investigators team SIT to be monitored by Supreme Court of India or CVC and not by CBI

3.       Suspend all CRPF & COBRA Jawans involved in the operation and register cases of murder against them including under SC, ST Atrocities Act 1989.

4.       Ex-gratia payment of Rs. 25 lakhs each to the family members of those killed.

5.       Take stringent constitutional steps against Chief Minister Dr. Raman Singh. Being the custodian of tribal welfare President of India, Smt. Pratibha Devi Singh Patil should visit the site of incident and the assure the family members of the victims of speedy justice.

6.       Now that his own Party leaders in Chhattisgarh have categorically maintained it to be a case of Fake Encounter & Congress President Sonia Gandhi and Party General Secretary Rahul Gandhi should visit the bereaved families at the earliest.

7.        Disband now infamous operation Green Hunt
