RISE UP AGAINST THE DADRI AND KANPUR COMMUNAL LYNCH-MOB KILLING! Citizen's Protest Vigil at Jantar Mantar on 2 October <http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/rDjrdY/~3/L8XxSFD6aqM/rise-up-against-dadri-and-kanpur.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email> Posted: 01 Oct 2015 09:39 PM PDT *RISE UP AGAINST THE DADRI AND KANPUR COMMUNAL LYNCH-MOB KILLING!* *SPEAK OUT AGAINST SPIRALLING COMMUNAL KILLINGS AND HATE MONGERING!* *Join a Citizens' Protest Vigil * *on 2 Oct at Jantar Mantar 3pm onwards !* A 22-year old young Muslim man is lying in hospital, brutally beaten up by a bloodthirsty mob. His 52-year old father is dead. Killed, bashed to death with bricks, by the same mob. Their ‘crime’? The ‘mob’ *claimed *they had killed a cow and eaten beef. Rumours flew, an announcement was made a local temple, and the mob indulged in a bloodthirsty orgy! At whose instructions did the ‘mob’ get organised? A few days back, Prime Minister Modi informed us that the “most fundamental debate” for youth in India was the choice between Windows, Android and iOS. Earlier, Modi went to Ireland and chose to scorn the concern for secularism in India (as he habitually does in the never-ending foreign trips). Today, 22-year Danish, battling for his life in a hospital, brings out the complete farce of Modi’s statements. The “most fundamental debate” for youths like Danish is to how to keep alive in a country where emboldened communal fascist goons can literally kill people in the name of what they eat or any other pretext to whip up communal frenzy! This murder is NO aberration. It is the tragic culmination of a systematic campaign of hate mongering and witch-hunt. *It is the chilling enacting of VHP leader Praveen Togadia’s threats that beef eaters will face the reaction of “Indian culture”.* Over the past weeks and months, “Indian” has been equated with “upper caste, Brahminical Hindu”, beef eating has been stigmatised and criminalised, and the cow has been wilfully and opportunistically used to polarise communities and spread hatred. The logical culmination of this abhorrent campaign is what we witnessed in Dadri. Modi himself during the Lok Sabha election campaign gave speeches whipping up hate against 'Pink Revolution' - that is, the meat industry, which he called 'murder' of 'animals' and 'cows' for 'mutton' and 'beef'. No wonder then, that the sitting BJP MP from Noida has said it is simply “*action and reaction*” (echoing Modi’s words after the organised Gujarat genocide). No wonder then, that a former BJP MLA claims that the lynch mob were “innocent children”, ‘excited’ by the grave “crime” of someone eating beef. The victim has become the accused! Ironically the UP police have taken meat from the victim's fridge for forensic tests to check whether or not it is beef! We need to say loud and clear - it is not a crime to eat beef. EVEN if it is found to be beef, the mob had no right to break into a house and attack and kill anyone. Some members of the mob have been arrested. But the real leaders of the lynch mob are those who have organised systematic hate campaigns, normalised the criminalisation of beef, and normalised the politics of policing of every aspect of our daily lives-what we wear or what we eat, whom we love and even what we think! Demand immediate action against the perpetrators and masterminds of such mob-lynching. Demand withdrawal of all laws that criminalises people's food habits. *We appeal to the people of Delhi to participate in a Citizen's Protest Vigil at Jantar Mantar on 2 October from 3 pm against the spiralling fascist bid to fan communal hate and orchestrate communal killing. * *Please join with your banners and placards.* *- Concerned Citizens o**f Delhi and Neighboring areas* *Six Outrageous Things BJP Leaders Have Said About Dadri Murder <http://www.huffingtonpost.in/2015/10/01/bjp-leaders-dadri-murder_n_8225574.html?1443711117&utm_hp_ref=india>* *NAUJAWAN BHARAT SABHA reports on systematic attempts of 'Sangh Parivar' to foment communal tension in Delhi // Beef murder bid to stir hatred ahead of polls? // SIDDHARTH VARADARAJAN: The fight is now over your right to not be killed for what you eat <http://dilipsimeon.blogspot.in/2015/09/naujawan-bharat-sabha-systematic.html>* *It is plain as daylight that the front organisations of the RSS/BJP are stirring up communal violence to polarise the Indian population and secure a political constituency based upon hatred. Communal voting is only possible in an atmosphere of hatred, and that is what this 'Parivar' is determined to do. Their cadre consider the 2014 elections as a mandate for totalitarian rule and free rein to their hooliganism. Contrary to all norms of journalism, a prominent section of the Hindi press is aiding and abetting <http://scroll.in/article/758934/man-accused-of-killing-an-animal-is-dead-how-hindi-press-reported-lynching-of-a-man-near-delhi> this programme, just as they did during the campaign to destroy the Babri Masjid in 1990-92. This a recipe for permanent social conflict. It is shameful that senior elected representatives, who took their oath of office upon the Constitution are presiding over an open subversion of the rule of law. If this is their definition of nationalism, India is headed for unending strife.* *The emperor's masks: 'apolitical' RSS calls the shots in Modi sarkar <http://dilipsimeon.blogspot.in/2015/09/the-emperors-masks-apolitical-rss-calls.html>* *Public Appeal - Resist degradation of Indian criminal justice system <http://dilipsimeon.blogspot.in/2015/05/retired-judge-jyotsana-yagnik.html>* *Dadri lynching: Nobody from Bisara helped us that day…How can we trust anyone now <http://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-others/dadri-lynching-nobody-from-bisara-helped-us-that-day-how-can-we-trust-anyone-now/>* *see also* *The importance of Professor Kalburgi <http://www.bangaloremirror.com/columns/views/The-importance-of-Professor-Kalburgi/articleshow/48818922.cms>* *Hindi writer Uday Prakash is returning his Sahitya Akademi Award* <http://dilipsimeon.blogspot.in/2015/09/hindi-writer-uday-prakash-is-returning.html> *Gujarat govt gets HC nod to launch probe against former DGP Sreekumar* <http://dilipsimeon.blogspot.in/2015/09/godhra-riots-gujarat-govt-gets-hc-nod.html> *After Professor Kalburgi Murder, Exhibit A is Police Inertia <http://dilipsimeon.blogspot.in/2015/09/after-professor-kalburgi-murder-exhibit.html>* *The Aseemanand tapes - Caravan ...* <http://dilipsimeon.blogspot.com/2014/02/the-aseemanand-tapes-caravan-press.html> *Jyoti Punwani - Let us not give our Islamic neighbour a run for its money <http://www.rediff.com/news/column/jyoti-punwani-let-us-not-give-our-islamic-neighbour-a-run-for-its-money/20150907.htm>* *"Remember Gandhi.
