A quiet smile plays on his lips. Unusually mum, he clutches the duff close to his chest and makes way past the garbage dump that marks the beginning of the Gandhinagar <http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=23.22,72.68&spn=0.1,0.1&q=23.22,72.68%20(Gandhinagar)&t=h> slum in Pune's Pimpri-Chinchwad <http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=18.6186222222,73.8037305556&spn=0.1,0.1&q=18.6186222222,73.8037305556%20(Pimpri-Chinchwad)&t=h>. It's 4 pm. The hotafternoon sun has barely begun to relent. Mostresidents are holed up insidetheir yellow brick-and-tin tenements.
Children are busy at their games. Four womensit in a corner, chatting. The sight of kurta-clad strangers is enough to attract attention but Sambhaji Bhagat doesn't wait.

Bhagat begins, a powerhouse of anger and resistance, his words his ammunition: Bhalan dada, dada re, bhalan dada Arre raan raan raan chala uthvu saare raan re (Oh brother, come on, come on, wake up!) #Sundayreading - Rage Against The Machine: Lokshahir Sambhaji Bhagat <http://www.kractivist.org/sundayreading-rage-against-the-machine-lokshahir-sambhaji-bhagat/> -- Adv Kamayani Bali Mahabal +919820749204 skype-lawyercumactivist Hey folks, coined this term " Kracktivism ", check out my blog *http://www.kractivist.org/kracktivism-2/ <http://www.kractivist.org/kracktivism-2/>* Blog for girl child- http://fassmumbai.wordpress.com/ Blog for Kashmir -http://kashmirsolidaritymumbai.wordpress.com/ Blog for KKM defence Committee- http://kabirkalamanch.wordpress.com https://twitter.com/#!/Kracktivist https://www.facebook.com/kamayani *I carry a torch in one hand And a bucket of water in the other: With these things I am going to set fire to Heaven And put out the flames of Hell So that voyagers to God can rip the veils And see the real goal.......
