Mumbai Rises Again in Protest, Thousands March, Nafrat ke Khilaaf Insaaniyat Ki Awaaz

July 4, 2017

This poster, visible at the Mumbai protests, the second after outrage swept India at the spate of lynchings of Muslims and Dalits under Modi rule, says it all. On Monday afternoon, thousands of Mumbaikars said "This is Not the Future We Want". Thirty-eight organisations and trade unions joined the march to put pressure on the government to ensure the rule of law and equal protection by the law, as guaranteed under the Indian Constitution.

Thousands of people in Mumbai marched on Monday against mob lynchings and hate crimes across the country. The march called “Nafrat ke Khilaaf Insaaniyat Ki Awaaz (The Voice of Humanity against Hatred) was called by civil society groups, trade unions, intellectuals and concerned citizens. Raising slogans like “Don’t kill in the name of cows”, protesters marched from Mumbai’s Kotwal Garden to Chaitya Bhoomi, Dr. BR Ambedkar’s memorial in Dadar.

The march came five days after thousands protested at Carter Road in Bandra as part of the “Not In My Name” campaign. Documentary filmmaker Anand Patwardhan, Baripa Bahujan Mahasangh leader Prakash Ambedkar and CPI leader Prakash Reddy were among those who led the march.

Pointing out the rise in attacks against the marginalized under Modi regime,Patwardhan said "We are not expecting any action from the government. They won't do anything, we are sure. But we want to appeal directly to the people that they have to save the constitution and for that they need their voices to be heard".

"It is not just Muslims who are being targeted by gau rakshaks. Even Dalits and whoever else opposes the government's policies are being targeted," said Patwardhan .

High Powered CPM Delegation Meets HM Rajnath Singh on Mob Lynching but Serious Questions Unanswered

July 4, 2017

A high-powered delegation of the CPI(M) led by polit bureau member Brinda Karat –accompanied by the sons of Md. Iklakh and Pehlu Khan, both victims of lynch mobs, and other affected families met the Home Minister, Rajnath Singh and gave him a memorandum detailing five specific cases of violence and lynching against Muslim families in the NCR region. The delegation comprised of Polit Bureau member Brinda Karat, Surinder Malik and K.M Tewari (secretaries of Haryana and Delhi state committees respectively), Sehba Farooqui, Inderjit Singh, Abdul Salam, Mubarak Khan and Danish Khan and Gangeswar. While the Home Minister assured the delegation of action on the issues raised. However he was at a loss to explain what steps his Government is taking to ensure security of citizens saying that it was a State Government matter.

The delegation was part of the protest programme organised at Jantar Mantar today when hundreds of men and women holding placards demanding justice for Junaid sat on dharna. It was organised by the Haryana and Delhi committees of the CPI(M).

Addressing the dharna, Brinda Karat said that the present Government is a joint venture of the BJP- RSS bent on implementing the agenda of Hindutva. Strongly criticising the recent statements of the BJP President, Amit Shah, Karat said that instead of condemning the lynchings he has justified them with his highly objectionable comparison of earlier acts of violence forgetting that even those acts were also by none other than the sangh parivar.

Brinda Karat appealed for unity of all sections against the divisive agenda of the sangh parivar. Hannan Mollah, Polit Bureau member of CPI(M), strongly condemned the cattle sale notification an instrument to destroy the livelihood of farmers. He expressed support for the demands of the meat sellers association who had come in large numbers to join the dharna from Ghaziabad and Noida.Other speakers included comrades K. M. Tewari, Surinder Malik, Inderjit Singh, Sehba Farooqui. The meeting was presided over by Nathu Parshad.

Memorandum Presented to the Home Minister dated July 4, 2017

Shri Rajnath Singh
Home Minister
Government of India
New Delhi

Dear Shri Rajnath Singh ji,
We write to draw your attention to the increasing cases of violence including lynching, and also false cases against members of the Muslim, Dalit and adivasi communities in the name of cow protection. Unfortunately in many of the cases, the families of the victims are being further victimized. While it is true that such cases are to be dealt with by respective State Governments, we believe that as Union Minister for Home Affairs a strong intervention is required from your Ministry.

Today July 4, the NCR and Haryana Committees of the CPI(M) have organised a protest dharna at Jantar Mantar on specific cases given below. Family members of the victims in these cases are also participating in the dharna hoping for justice.

1. In the case of the lynching of 15 year old Junaid on a local train, it is shocking that the main accused have not yet been arrested by the police. On the contrary those involved in this horrific lynching are inciting villages in the area to protest against even the arrests that have been made. They are emboldened by the soft attitude of the State Government which has not sent a single Minister or official to condole the death of Junaid or to enquire about the health of his elder brother Shakir who was badly injured. You will be shocked to know that the State Government has made no arrangements for proper treatment for Shakir. He has been standing in queues at the OPD in Government hospitals in Delhi in great pain. Even after this terrible incident, there are no security forces posted on these train routes. We were informed that communal gangs on these trains pick on passengers identifiable by their appearance to be Muslim and make extremely provocative and highly objectionable statements against them.

In the case we request you to ensure arrest of all those guilty including the main accused, intervene to stop the communal campaign going on in the area to protect the guilty, ensure treatment for Shakir, adequate compensation for the family and security on the trains.

2. You are no doubt aware of the horrific case in Dingarheri, Haryana last August (August 24, 2016) when two girls of a muslim poor farmer's family were gang-raped, a couple was murdered and other family members injured by a communally charged gang. After strong protests, a CBI inquiry was ordered. Some arrests were made. However although the case has not moved forward in the court, pressure is being put on the family by the accused. Shockingly, a false case of murder has been filed against the victims family to pressure them into coming to a "compromise". In this case too, the role of the Haryana Government has been in support of the accused.

Two members of the victim's family have been arrested under FIR no 49 dated 10-2-2017. This is a travesty of justice. We request you to intervene in this case and to ensure that the false case against the victim's family is withdrawn.

3. In the case of Pehlu Khan, the dairy farmer from Mewat, who was brutally killed in Ajmer, Rajasthan all the accused have still not been arrested. No compensation has been given to his family or to those who were injured in the attack. On the contrary, an utterly fabricated case of cow smuggling has been filed against the victims. Their milch cows were impounded and cash snatched from them have still not been returned to them.

In this case we request you to intervene with both the Rajasthan and Haryana Governments to arrest all the accused, to give compensation to Pehlu Khan's family and to those injured, to return the Milch cows and cash and to withdraw the false case against them.

4. In the case of Md. Iqlakh of Dadri, Uttar Pradesh, it is two years since a communally incited mob broke into his home and brutally beat him to death and grievously injured his son Danish. It is shocking that even after two years the court has not framed the charges against the accused. One by one all the accused are out on bail, threatening the family. A false case of cow slaughter against the deceased and his family members was filed in a private complaint by the accused in a local court. This has become the pretext to run a vile campaign against Iqlakh's family to protect the accused. His brother Jan Muhammad has faced many threats and has had to abandon the family house. In spite of repeated pleas to the administration, the house was not protected, the locks were broken and the apprehension is that the accused who have had full access to the house, could have planted evidence to help the false case against the family.

This is to request you to ensure that the murder case is expedited, the false case against the family withdrawn and Danish the son who was sitting for competitive exams but could not do so because of his serious injuries which required brain surgery, should be given Government employment.

5. The fifth case we draw your attention to happened in the heart of the Capital on April 24, this year. A truck with buffalos was stopped by gangs in three cars near the Kalkaji Mandir. They were badly beaten. An FIR number 0166 dated 23.42017 was filed by Rizwan, the driver of the vehicle. Two of the car numbers were also identified by the victims, but shockingly the accused have not been arrested.

Since the Delhi police are directly under your Ministry, we request you to take direct action and ensure the accused are arrested.

In addition, we urge you to direct Home Ministry officials to collect information about the cases of cow related violence from States which include Haryana, Jharkhand, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal and even Delhi. There is a pattern in the violence which indicates that these are not spontaneous cases of "mob violence" but behind each of these cases are organised groups of so-called gau rakshaks owing allegiance to a particular brand of Hindutva ideology. In almost all these cases, the accused if and when arrested are easily given bail; charges are not framed even after months if not years; on the contrary in most cases victims or their families are faced with false cases; compensation is not given in many of the cases; there is a soft approach in most cases from the Government towards the accused. Our request is to monitor and follow up on each of these aspects so as to bring justice to the victims and also to send a strong message to ensure prevention of such crimes.

Yours sincerely,
(Brinda Karat) (Surinder Mallick)

Member, Polit Bureau, CPI(M) Secretary, Haryana State Committee CPI(M)

Secretary, Delhi NCR, CPI(M)

MASUKA, Protect Innocents from Lynching, Draft Bill to Be Released on Friday

July 4, 2017

“Protection from Lynching Act”, Manav Suraksha Kanoon (Human Security Bill), a draft law against mob lynchings will be released on Friday. "A website will be set up for people to provide suggestions," said JNU student Shehla Rashid, one of the faces of the National Campaign Against Mob Lynching, which is behind the draft "Human Security Bill". Simulataneously a campaign will be started among Opposition lawmakers to try and get it tabled in Parliament.

Activist Tehseen Poonawalla, JNU student leader Kanhaiya Kumar, Gujarat Dalit leader, Jignesh Mevani are among the other leaders of the campaign, launched last month after several Muslims were lynched in Jharkhand and Rajasthan, mostly by cow vigilantes. Senior counsel, Sanjay Hedge was part of the core group that drafted the law called ‘Protection from Lynching Act”

The draft "bill" criminalises inaction by authorities as well as indirect incitement of mobs through vilification. Under the draft law, “lynching” shall mean any act or series of acts of violence as extra judicial punishment, whether spontaneous or planned, committed to inflict summary punishment, or as an act of protest upon a person. Punishment is a maximum of life imprisonment for the crime, once prosecuted.

Police officers and district magistrates who “wilfully omits to exercise lawful authority vested in him under this Act and thereby fails to prevent the commission of any act of lynching, shall be punished with imprisonment which may extend to one year, or with fine, or with both. There is also a provision for compensation that will not be less than Rs 25 lakhs.

The draft law also makes specific provisions for the crimes for the “Punishment for Conspiracy or Abetment to Lynch”. “Whoever takes part in a conspiracy or conspires to lynch another person, or abets an act of lynching shall be punished in the same manner as if he had taken part in the actual incident of lynching.”. Those persons who are proven to have “assisted” the offenders shall also be due for punishment. Significantly, “Punishment for giving financial aid for the commission of lynching”
includes those who “knowingly expends or supplies any money in furtherance or in support of an act which is an offence under this Act, shall be punished with imprisonment for a term, which may extend to three years, and shall also be liable to fine.”
"Our existing laws cover murder and unlawful assembly. In a case of lynching, the victim may not know the perpetrator. A lynching is based on the identity of the victim," senior Supreme Court advocate Sanjay Hegde, who heads the campaign's drafting committee, said.

"The existing laws do not look at the factors leading to the lynching, such as campaigns and demonisation. This draft fixes the responsibility for administrative and police inaction. It also provides for prosecuting those who may not have directly participated in the mob but are complicit in inciting them."

Hegde cited how the law against sexual assault was overhauled after the December 2012 Delhi bus brutality despite the apprehensions voiced about the possible misuse of the more stringent provisions.

"We cannot sit and do nothing for fear of a law being abused. The draft will be open to suggestions and, in any case, it is Parliament and the state legislatures that debate and enact laws. We are merely providing a draft," he said.

In 2013, the Criminal Law Amendment Act had expanded the definition of rape and criminalised sexual relations with girls below 18 while adding sections against acid attacks, voyeurism, stalking and other forms sexual assault or harassment.Rashid said the committee would present a copy of the draft to the Prime Minister's Office before the launch at the Constitution Club here.

"We shall also announce an advocacy campaign with lawmakers to press for the bill's tabling during the upcoming monsoon session of Parliament. We plan to march to Parliament during the session," Rashid said.

The "bill" makes lynching a non-bailable offence, punishable with life imprisonment. It also covers attempted lynching, where the victim survives the mob attack. It makes relief and rehabilitation of the survivors and the families of the dead mandatory.

A day before the launch, families of lynching victims from Rajasthan will address a meeting in Jaipur.Activist Nadim Khan said that family members of CPIML Liberation activist Zafar Khan, who was lynched by municipal staff in Pratapgarh, would speak at the meeting. So will relatives of victims from Sikar district.

"Activists across ideological lines are collaborating to confront mob violence legally. Our goal is to move beyond mere publicity and have movements in every state against this trend, and join hands to provide legal aid to the victims," Khan said.

Senior Dalit leader and activist Dr Prakash Ambedkar will be among many persons who will address the meeting at the launch of the draft law.

A CM Who’s Afraid of Soap and a Press Club that Dances to His Tune

July 4, 2017

In Yogi’s UP, the Lucknow Press Club became the handmaiden of the state police and government when it succumbed to the illegal pressures of the state administration to ‘cancel’ the reservation made by senior activists on the anti-Dalit policies of the present BJP ruled state government and allow the police to arrest activists within its premises. This incident, evidence of creeping authoritarianism with Modi-Yogi’s India happened on the afternoon of Monday July 3.

Reservations for the press conference and the march had been made ten to twelve days earlier but when eight senior activists, including former IPS officer and IGP SR Darapuri, Ram Kumar, Ramesh Dixit, Ashish Awasthi, P.K. Yadav, P.C. Kureel, K.K. Wats, reached the venue at Kaisarbagh, Lucknow 500 policemen including the PAC had surrounded the building and they were peremptorily told ‘their reservation was cancelled.’. SP City Tripathi, present in full force with many seniors, demanded to know where the activists would go from there and when all activists said there was freedom of movement in India, they were arrested from inside the premises of the press club causing a furore and outrage across the country. Joshi, a representative of the press club was reluctant to speak to Sabrangindia on the issue today. Johru Twari is currently President, Press Club, Lucknow.

“The actions of the Yogi government are violative of fundamental human rights and freedom of expression. This act was a means to terrorise all dissenting voices into silence,” said Darapuri speaking to Sabrangindia. “It is shocking that we were arrested from inside the premises and worse still that the press club succumbed to the pressure.” Darapuri further explained that the ludicrousness of the episode extended to the police wanting to impose Section 144 of the criminal law, a section often used by the authorities to stem public gatherings ‘in the open.’ The fact that the press club is a hall and that reservations meant that the law could not be invoked was of no importance to the policemen!

“The actions of the Press Club are as dangerous as that of the police,” said senior political activist Ramesh Dixit who has recently re-joined the NCP.

“Our CM is scared of a Bar of Soap,” said former Vice Chancellor, Lucknow, Rooprekha Verma sarcastically summing up the sinister moves of the state government. “It is all a game of soap. First, he got the Dalit protesters arriving from Gujarat with a 125 kg soap arrested at Jhansi and now this!” In a more serious vein, she said, “it is Dictatorship of the worst kind. If the venue of the press conference had been a state government cultural centre, the knee jerk reaction of the authorities would have been predictable if not understandable. But the fact that it is a Venue of the Fourth Estate, meant to be a Watch Dog of Democracy that is now conniving with a Dictatorial Regime makes it sinister. This did not even happen during Hitler’s regime. Is the CM so scared of us, activists? I feel very empowered at the moment.”

“The fact that we could not even gather to protest and discuss the present situation of Dalits in India is shocking and disgrace” said senior activist Ram Kumar. In Jhansi after the activists from Gujarat were detained, the 125 kilogram soap was seized by the administration. “We hope that the soap reaches our chief minister, very concerned about culture and cleanliness,” Ram Kumar added.

The arrest of eight activists including senior Dalit rights activists and former IGP SR Darapuri in Lucknow yesterday was worse because of the manner in which the Press Club of Lucknow behaved and the role played by this venue, ostensibly of access to the ‘fourth estate’ in a democracy.

It all boils down then to a bar of soap that the UP chief minister is afraid of..

GST Rage: Indefinite Strike Gujarat since Saturday, Police Lathicharges Protesting Textile Traders

July 4, 2017

Gujarat editions of the Indian Express and Times of India have reported how several textile traders, who had come out in support of an indefinite bandh against Goods and Services Tax (GST), were injured in police lathicharge in Surat Monday. Police detained five protesters who were released later.

The GST Sangharsh Samiti, formed under the umbrella of Federation of Surat Textile Traders Association (FOSTTA), had called for the indefinite strike from Saturday till their demand was met. Over 70,000 traders of Surat have been agitating for the last one week. The textile market area on Ring Road of Surat looked deserted on Monday morning as more than 50,000 shops in 150 textile markets remained closed. At around 11am, several textile traders and workers assembled near markets to protest against GST.
There was heavy police bandobast in the area and till 12 pm the situation was relatively calm. However, the things deteriorated when police started using force. According to traders the police were pressurising them to reopen the shops or leave the market area, which the traders refused. When police failed to convince the traders, they started using force to vacate the area.

“We were peacefully protesting at Millennium Market area and we had informed police in advance. However, at around 12 noon, the police started using force on peaceful protesters,“ said Attar Singh, member of GST Sangharsh Samiti told The Times of India. “There were around 5,000 protes ters near Millennium Market area. We tried to convince them to reopen shops; some of them were stopping traders who wanted to reopen their shops. We intervened and that enraged them. Soon they started attacking policeman and we had to use force to control the mob,“ said one police officer at the Millennium Market.

But on Monday, some of the traders opened their shops following a meeting by Surat Navsari MP C R Patil on Sunday evening. He had assured them that their demands would be put before the competent authorities. However, not a single member of FOSTTA or GST Sangharsh Samithi, was present in the meeting. Only those from two newly-formed groups South Gujarat Textile Traders Association and Vepari Pragati Sangh were present. Sanjay Jagnanai, former president of FOSTTA was also present.

The GST Sangharsh Samiti again met in the evening to decide the future course of action. Manoj Agrawal of FOSTTA said the textile traders were protesting non-violently. “They had not damaged any public property or taken law in their hands. The police lathicharge has worsened the situation. Many traders, including elderly, were injured.”

Rajesh Agrawal, a core committee member of GST Sangharsh Samiti, said, “Seeing anger among the traders, we had called for an indefinite strike. With police aid on Monday, some of them opened their shops. But a larger section is angry. The traders are businessmen, not criminals.”

Big relief for Arundhati Roy as Supreme Court stays contempt proceedings against her

July 4, 2017

The Supreme Court today stayed the contempt proceedings against author and activist Arundhati Roy in the Bombay High Court for her article in a weekly questioning the incarceration of Delhi University professor G N Saibaba.

arundhati roy

A bench of Chief Justice J S Khehar and Justice DY Chandrachud also granted the leave of appeal to Roy and listed her plea against the issuance of criminal contempt notice by the Nagpur bench of the Bombay High Court for final hearing.

Initially, the court said it wanted to dispose off the case but later considered submissions of senior advocate Chander Uday Singh, appearing for the writer, and observed: “Leave is granted. The proceedings shall remain stayed. List for final hearing”.

The apex court had earlier refused to stay the contempt notice issued against Roy by the High Court on December 23, 2015 for her views on the arrest of Saibaba and the rejection of his bail plea early last year.

The bench had also declined to exempt her from personal appearance before a single judge of the Nagpur Bench of the high court. It had granted liberty to the Registrar of the High Court to file any pleadings or documents in the case and had kept the case for final disposal.

Roy had expressed her views on the arrest of Saibaba in an article published in a weekly magazine last year. Gadchiroli Police had arrested Saibaba in 2014 for his alleged links with Maoists. He has been on bail since June last year.

Against Lynching, Another March: Justice For Zafar Led by Daughters Saabra, Rukshar!

July 3, 2017

On the Roads of Comrade Zafar!
Justice For Zafar March Led by His Daughters Saabra and Rukshar!
Stands Against Mob Lynching
We all are Zafar!
We all are Junaid!
Red Salutes to all Comrades!

https://www.facebook.com/sucheta.de.9/videos/1479883395408998/

Early in the morning on June 16, 2017, Comrade Zafar Hussein, an activist of CPI(ML) in Pratapgarh, Rajasthan, was kicked, punched and beaten to death by karamcharis of the nagarpalika (municipality) at the instigation of Nagar Parishad commissioner Ashok Jain when he resisted their attempts to take photographs and videos of poor women from the Bagwasa Kachi basti who were going to defecate in the open. Such photography and videography of women defecating is a clear instance of sexual harassment against women. This incident has yet again established how the Swachh Bharat campaign too is becoming an excuse for lynch mob attacks and attacks on women's dignity and rights. This lyncging at the instigation and instance of Ashok Jain has shown up the dirty face of the Swachh Bharat campaign.

Comrade Zafar himself had submitted a memorandum to the Nagar Parishad some days back protesting against the campaign of public shaming and bullying of women for defecating in the open. In the memorandum he had demanded community toilets and repairing of the non-functional public latrines constructed under the Swacch Bharat campaign. He had also unsuccessfully sought to submit the memorandum to the DM who had refused to accept it.

There have been persistent protests to ensure that the killers are booked.

Protest Rises Against Lynch Culture: Jantar Mantar, Again

July 3, 2017

Citizens Come Out Against Lynch Culture
As the timeline of cow protection moves from Gau raksha to Gautankwad, the nation witnessed a series of attacks against Muslims and Dalits.

On Sunday, the streets of Jantar Mantar resonated with slogans and speeches demanding justice for Junaid, Pekhlu Khan, Akhlaq and other victims of mob lynching.
On the call of Mewat Panchayat for a 3 day sit-in protest, people from Nuh, Faridabad and other places had assembled in Jantar Mantar. A group of 40-50 people from Junaid’s village, Khandawali in Ballabhgarh also attended the protest.

“This has been organised by the people of Mewat… Because of the circumstances now, we feel the need to be on the road to fight,” Sher Mohammed, head of Rajasthan’s Meo panchayat, said.
Jalaluddin Khan, father of 15-year-old Junaid, and Irshad, son of Pehlu Khan, participated in the protest demanding justice for victims of mob lynching.

Nadeem, a protester, quoted as saying: "This protest is against those 200 people who were present at the Asavati platform but didn't come forward to help the injured Junaid and his brothers".

Along with political and social activists, academicians, workers, Jawaharlal Nehru University Students' Union (JNUSU) also gathered at the protest site to express their solidarity. Banners with photos of Dadri lynching victim Mohammad Akhlaq, Pehlu Khan, missing JNU student Najeeb Ahmad, and Junaid floated in the crowd.

Najeeb’s sister, Sadaf Musharraf, spoke about “the number of cows that die from eating plastic…”, and called for “law against mob lynching”.

Earlier, Satarupa Chakraborty, JNUSU General Secretary, said: "JNUSU held meeting with all student bodies and progressive citizens and decided to hold a united protest against mob lynching incidents".

"Since the BJP came into power in 2014, there have been series of attacks on marginalised groups. It must be stopped immediately and JNUSU appeals to one and all to extend support and take part in the meeting at 11 am on Sunday [July 2] to chart out the future course of action," JNUSU said in a release.

The protest call came after hundreds of Delhiites joined the demonstration named 'Not In My Name' to protest against the series of mob lynching. The series of mob lynching started with the gruesome assault on Mohammad Akhlaq by an Islamophobic mob. The series of lynching claimed the life of people from marginalized communities including Pehlu Khan, Hafiz Junaid, Alimuddin from Ramgarh, Jharkhand.

As the timeline of cow protection moves from Gau raksha to Gautankwad, the nation witnessed a series of attacks against Muslims and Dalits. Muslims were the primary target in majority of violence based on bovine issues; from 2010 to 2017, according to a content analysis of the English media. 28 Indians killed in 63 incidents during this time period and Muslims comprised 86% of it.

As many of 97% of these attacks were reported after Modi regime came to power in May 2014. Since then the Sangh Parivar outfits, which led the lynching, have been enjoying state protection and patronage to pursue its ultra-nationalist Hindutva agenda.
