It is rather inhuman that the criminal regime of apartheid exposed naked has opted for defamation having already played the OBC Trump Card.But singling out the untouchables might have been in vogue to continue Manusmriti rule,Manusmriti miserable failed as spokes person of the Indian neonazi KU KLAX Klan.


Now,Biranchi Baba has to address the Dalit Vote Bank as Mayawati visited Hyderbad Centarl university and as Dilip C Mandal infomed me different factions of Bamcef have already launched a mass awareness campaign,the Hindutva brigade has launched a hate campaign against dead child Rohith to kill the source of the inspiration for equality, justice, unity,tolerance and pluralism.


The significant pointI missed out is that some faculty members also participated in the demonstration on Wednesday!


IIT Kharagpur- Protest against Rohit's Death


I am sorry that we are quite unaware about the activities in our IITs and IIMs.It is general trend like some suprestition that we do not consider our best students and faculties whenever we tray to focus on real issues.


It is true that they understand economics ,politics and society better than us.

Without active support from these supreme institutions of knowledge in a free market economy governed by criminal hegemony of apartheid,we may not resist with a vision methodically.


We have been caught quite unaware that these students and faculties best known for hiring are not robots only,They belong to humanity and they are as much as concerned but so called.


We have information that IIT students and faculties in different parts of the nation stand united against this regime of extreme fascism.As soon as we get the details we would share.I would request friends in IIM to share their updates also.So that the mythical communication gap between these elite institutions and the people may be filled in the best interest of unity and integrity of India.


Thanks Dr.Arindam Roy to correct s and we correct with the feeling of enhanced solidarity.

Sir, 

Thanks for updating other activists about our move. We just want to mention a point to comrade Palash that it is not the first time that we have arranged a protest, last year during the Jadavpur student movement similar protest with sutudents and professors were carried out in IIT Kharagpur campus. Moreover, it needs mention that few Professors had also joined the protest yesterday.

Regards,
Meanwhlie,Former Union minister and member of the BJP national executive Sanjay Paswan made a not-so-veiled attack on the government headed by his own party over the suicide of University of Hyderabad scholar Rohith Vemula.

Mr Paswan, who had also headed the party's Scheduled Caste Morcha in the run up to the General Elections of 2014 tweeted that "the stake holders of power politics must take serious note of Rohith Vemula episode or be ready to face wrath, revenge, revolt, reactions."

Referenc to:

For the first time,IIT Kharagpur students demonstrated for a cause which is not limited within the campus,which though still may boast of the pride of Hijli Barracks wherein the East India Company and the British Raj kept imprisoned the freedom fighters since 1757.

IIT Kharagpur students stand united with the students and youth countrywide.It is almost a history because these students are better known for RS Two Crore Campus recruitment and still it is the number one institution.Media would not cover the turnaround to focus the point that generation next cares for the nation and the masses and they also as Indian citizens are concerned most to ensure equality,justice,pluralism ,tolerance and peace.

Dr.Anand Teltumbde just returned from Hyderabad and would write ground zero report very soon.He called me and I requested him to send the IIT report that so that the best of our students in the best campus stand with the students and youth crying justice!He did it thanks Anand!

Previous two mails were on the protest demonstration against the Central University of Hyderabad that unleashed spate of harassment of the dalit students belonging to Ambedkar Students Association, which has already taken a toll of one brilliant life -- Rohith vemula.

The write up is the pamphlet that was distributed and the handwritten posters pasted on walls at prominent public places.

A march was conducted i which many students participated.  


"The value of a man was reduced to his immediate identity and nearest possibility. To a vote. To a number. To a thing. Never was a man treated as a mind. As a glorious thing made up of star dust. In every field, in studies, in streets, in politics, and in dying and living"

– Rohith Vemula

In any 'free' country, protests symbolize a 'healthy and functioning' democracy, however under the current political dispensation, the message is bold and clear, 'if you are not with us, you are against us'. Like Bush Junior's famous axis of evil, the list of anti-national elements is ever expanding, anyone who voices a 'different' opinion. Once you are stuck with such a label, the fascists enjoy the power of judge, jury and executioner over the hapless targets. Rohith's case is no different than this. He had potential and a bright future ahead. He might have been someone.

Rohith Vemula was a young Dalit research scholar and student activist of the University of Hyderabad, who was among five students suspended by the administration and protesting against it. Rohith was forced to kill himself because he did not stop at that cardinal sin of fighting for his own people. He dared to speak for all the marginalized ones, be it the minorities, the workers or women as a leading activist of the Ambedkar Students Association (ASA). He also protested against the capital punishment which sparked controversy between ASA and another students organization named Akhil Bhartiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP).  The trouble took a sharp turn when ASA organised a protest march in August 2015 at the campus against the attack on the Montage Film Society in Delhi University by ABVP. They were attacked for screening a documentary movie 'Muzaffarnagar Baaqi Hai" that exposed the roles of Hindutva outfits in Muzaffarnagar riots in 2013. Local ABVP leader Susheel Kumar who posted a comment on Facebook calling ASA members 'goons' alleged that about 30 students belonging to the ASA had beaten him up and he had to be hospitalized. The University's Proctorial Board conducted an inquiry into the allegations with a medical examination which found no proof of injuries claimed by Susheel Kumar. But external political compulsion led to the formation of second proctorial committee which found Rohith and four others guilty of anti-national activities. This led to the eviction of Rohith and four others from hostel, library and campus public spaces. His stipend was also halted following this.

Despite the trouble and increasing tension on campus, while politicians prepared to fight on both sides, nobody bothered to reach out humanely to the students protesting by camping in the open. The suicide of students on India's best campuses is a tragedy that we do not wish to acknowledge or recognize. We ignored it.

He did not hate anyone or wish to use his final act against anyone, including those he was fighting against. He did not find space in the campus to pursue his true love — science. This intolerant situation forced Rohith to write "I always wanted to be a writer. A writer of science, like Carl Sagan. At last, this is the only letter I am getting to write" as he was sucked into the black-hole of mutual destruction by binaries that campus politics has become: You are either this or that, you are either with us or against us.

For the "murder-suicide", we blame the phantom limb of caste on which the pretentious democratic credentials of the republic are superimposed. The coward police secretly cremated Rohith's body, increasing the suspicion that it can be more than a institutional murder. We demand a detailed investigation and punishment of the guilty and oppose the institutional murder of Rohith Vemula.


A spectre will haunt the Brahmanical Academia, the spectre of Rohith Vemula!
