Dr. Dabholkar to Com. Pansare via Perumal Murigan......


Dr.Dabholkar to Com.Pansare via PerumaMurugan………………………………………….
Need for establishing
An independent  permanent ‘High level Investigation team”
Author- Poet Kailas Pagare, Nasik
Last year it was Dr. Dabholkar, yesterday com. Panasare, now who will be the next victim…? Every morning a progressive thinking worker leaves his home carrying this thought in the corner of his brain. A fleeting thought crosses his mind once in a while, whether there will be a cowardly murderous attack on me today ?......However after remembering great personalities like Phule, Shahu, Ambedkar, Shivaji, Marx, Lohiya he resumes his work and the unpleasant thought flies away at that moment………..This is what is happening in case of every progressive thinking worker today…………..
What if a worker is really targeted all the time? If he’s under watch all the time? What If these people surround him all the time, in front of his home, behind the house, at the place of work? At night, in the day, in town, outside town, in travel and in another town as well. An impossible thought for an ordinary man, but this is happening in case of an extra ordinary publicity shy worker--….. his name is Prof. Shrawan Deore. He’s threatened with an indirect warning ‘Tuza Dabholkar Karu ‘ (’Your fate will similar to Dabholkar).
Prof. Shrawan Deore might have ignored such threats. One cannot ignore a possibility that  he may be under mistaken impression that he’s not a big worker like Dabholkar and why would someone kill him. However as & when a ‘watch’ on him started increasing, the danger to his life increased. He kept this fear to himself for quite some time. If he had shared it with someone, there was a fear of getting a counter question, “DO you think you are a big revolutionary so that someone might attack you? Perhaps Dr. Dabholkar & Com. Pansare may have thought on same lines and kept this fear to themselves. In the progressive movement this cancer called ‘ego’ works like a life threatening disease. Scared with this disease Prof. Deore must have kept this terrorism fear to himself. To share this with one’s friends & relatives is to push them away because of this fear. However when his met with an accident he was scared from the root. He was threatened indirectly ‘will make Dabholkar of you’. He decided not to keep quite any more but to speak with someone. On a visit to Pune for delivering a lecture, he discussed this threat with Dr. Baba Adhav, Prof. Vilas Wagh, Ushatai, P. A. Inamdar, Krishnakant Kudale, Sanjay Sonavani, Bhai Vaidya, Kumar Saptarshi After discussing with several retired Police officers, Crime branch officials, everyone came to conclusion that there was a distinct possibility of his going the same way as Dabholkar has gone. Some of them have prepared a joint statement and have advised Prof. Deore to make a personal statement. This statement gives detailed sequence of events.
The reactionary leaders must be stupid to believe and think that once likes of Dabholkar and Pansare are gunned down, workers in second or third front will automatically  stop doing their work. How can these people be under false notion that if & when a person is killed his thought will also die.???? Even if they know that thought are never die by killing someone, the work of murder is assigned to Bahujan hands. Their hidden agenda might be to engage the progressive workers buried in grief to various emotional tasks. The real agenda is different. Because of this terror Prof. Shravan Deore’s work has not stopped but has considerable effect on it. The real intention behind this terror is to at least slow down the progressive work if it cannot be stopped completely.
Progressive workers do all their work for the Bahujan samaj only, however persons who carry life threatening attack on them are from the same bahujan samaj. Police investigation never reaches to the hidden  brains behind these hands. Only superficial causes are searched to pacify themselves. For example Dr. Dabholkar was attacked as he took the cause of cast courts( Jaat panchayat). Com.Pansare raised his voice against toll booths therefore he was attacked. Prof. Deore raised his voice against group rapes therefore his vehicle met with an accident. Whether it’s a leader or a worker from the progressive movement, he has some dispute or some protest other going on all the time. Disputes & protest are inseparable part of their life. Fundamentalist reactionary organizations search for such disputes and allot contract killing jobs to the people in the opposition. This contract killing is not in form of money but in form of complete assured security against any legal action. The killers are told to carry the murder without any fear and are assured that as ‘the govt. belongs to us, nothing untoward will happen.’
One point that I raised little while ago must be explained in detail. To protest against Com.Panasare’s attack a meeting took place in martyr’s  memorial on 16th Feb’2015.In this meeting, while speaking Prof.Devare informed about terror threats that he received and read out a statement made by workers from Pune. It’s quite possible for some people might think, who is this Prof.Deore, what is his work and why would reactionaries attack him.
Who should do the evaluation of which worker does what work in the progressive movement. In a farm there are several chili trees, but instead of farmer telling which chilli is more spicy, it’s the eater who is the best judge of it’s bite. Leftist ( revolutionary) movement never took blind faith eradication a serious work. It was evaluated within the framework of progress. Eradication of blind faith is culturally a revolutionary work. To understand that is it necessary for Dr. Dabholkar to loose his life? How far work of a progressive worker is dangerous for a reactionary group can be explained only be the reactionaries, no one else.
Whenever in any state or in center BJP come to power RSS starts imposing it’s agenda. Educational studies is on the top of this agenda. As & when BJP comes to power textbooks in schools & colleges are turned more & more into saffron. That is because they have learned from Budhist universities importance of education in revolution & counter revolution, therefore every effort is made to make school curriculum aggressively brhamanical. Prof.Shravan Deore detected this point correctly and created a ‘Scientific, casteless, equality’ based cariculam. 22 years back he established a ‘Satyashodhak Chatrapati Dnyanpeeth.’ Through the means of this Dnyanpeeth he implements this curriculum all over the state of Maharashtra.There are 300 centers all over the state and in far reaching areas where exams are conducted. Since last year it’s available in Hindi and as such it has become an all India ‘enlightened’ programme. If this project is continued it can create itself into ‘Phule-Ambedkarist University at the global level. Even if progressive movement is not aware of such simple thing, RSS is fully convinced of it.
RSS has on its anti revolutionary agenda second most important point.’ The main arsenal of ‘cultural revolution-anti revolution’ is religious scrutiny, fight of symbols, and war of myths. In this cultural war Prof.Shravan Deore has, on this front contributed substantially in giving OBC movement a literary and cultural turn. To initiate OBC literary festivals. To start a conflict of myths through ‘Baliraja’ festivals, lecture series, book writing, workshops and such programmes are conducted by him all the time. As he’s publicity shy he is never in lime light. An progressive journey that started from his age of 19 envelopes and continues uninterrupted amongst Adivasi, Dalit, OBC’s student organizations, land labours, literature, culture, education. 
There may be many workers like him who might have stopped worked or are under a threat of terror or have their work interrupted. Punites, in their joint statement have clearly stated that ‘Govt.must establish a special high level investigation team which will be in constant touch with Advisory Committee’ of forward leaders like Baba Adhav, Adv. Prakash Ambedkar. In the state of Maharashtra wherever any worker is terrorized or is under surveillance or receives threatening letters, calls in such case this team must investigate and detect the source. The attackers must be arrested before they attack.
As soon as Prof. Shravan Deore mentioned threats received by him in a public meeting, the other day, some of his friends advised him to suspend work for few days, but every time he says with determination,
It is alright  if I go the same way as ‘Dabholkar-Pansare’!!
But by stopping work……………..
I do not want be Perumal Murugan!!!
