[19/09, 23:24] Lara Jesani: After the joint presser and public protest in Mumbai, rights groups are coming together to organise a public convention in Mumbai to condemn state repression and demand repeal of UAPA in October. Below is the brief concept note for internal circulation.
[19/09, 23:25] Lara Jesani: People Fight Back!
*Undeclared Emergency*
A Public Convention
*Concept note*
“If crime itself assumes authority and power,
And hunts down people,
Holding them criminals,
Everyone endowed with a mouth who keeps silent,
Becomes a criminal himself.”
When poet and littérateur Varavara Rao wrote these lines, it somehow reflected his own life and his political surroundings. Today, these lines echo around us, as we live through mounting repression and the clampdown on dissenting voices.
On June 6, 2018, five human rights activists - Sudhir Dhawale, Adv. Surendra Gadling, Prof. Shoma Sena, Mahesh Raut and Rona Wilson were arrested and falsely accused of inciting violence at Bhima Koregaon. Their arrests shook the human rights fraternity in India.
Even as people were busy defending them, pan India raids and arrests took place on August 28 at the residences of five more human rights activists, Sudha Bhardwaj, Gautam Navlakha, Arun Ferreira, Varavara Rao and Vernon Gonsalves who were then arrested, apart from raids on the residences of Stan Swamy, Susan Abraham and Anand Teltumbde. The arrests were made allegedly in connection with the Bhima Koregaon case
In all the cases UAPA sections were added after the arrests.
Months before these arrests, Babushankar Vonguri, Satyanarayana Karrela, Shankar Gunde, Saidulu Singapanga, Ravi Murampally – five leading activists of Mumbai Electric Employees Union - were also arrested and slapped with UAPA in January 2018, allegedly in connection with the Bhima Koregaon case.
*The Bhima Koregaon issue*
More than 200 Dalit organisations had campaigned together to celebrate the bi-centenary of the battle of Bhima Koregaon, an event of special relevance to Dalit Bahujans who visit the memorial every year an act of both assertion and preserving memory. This year, organisations from all across Maharashtra who are committed to an anti-brahmanical, anti-fascist politics came together to host a ‘Bhima Koregaon Shaurya Din Prerna Abhiyan’, also called the ‘Elgar Parishad’ on December 31, which received a broad and popular mandate. On January 1, visitors to the Bhima Koregaon memorial near Pune were attacked by Hindutva goons. In response to these attacks, widespread spontaneous protests broke out in Maharashtra. Instead of arresting the main culprits behind the attack - Hindutva leaders Sambhaji Bhide and Milind Ekbote - the police began combing operations in various bastis where Dalits reside and arrested hundreds of youth and Dalit activists. An FIR was lodged against some of the organisers of Elgar Parishad, the cultural groups Kabir Kala Manch, Republican Panthers, Umar Khalid and Jignesh Mevani (who were present as speakers) on extremely frivolous and fallacious grounds.
*Worse than Emergency*
It is since this event that the Bhima Koregaon event has been referred in several incidents to both arrest and intimidate human rights activists, intellectuals, poets, writers, etc. Though the arrests are made citing the Bhima Koregaon violence, various other charges are also invoked. A completely different narrative has been presented in the media, which is often contradictory by its own nature. Sometimes it is said that the ‘accused’ were involved in planning an assassination plot of none other than PM Modi, that they helped organize lecture series in JNU. One of them was also charged with having linkages to the separatists in Kashmir. The attack is not merely on human rights activists, but also on democratic rights and civil society organisations NGOs.
The usage of the narrative of Bhima Koregaon is reminiscent of the Emergency, in which several such conspiracy cases were used to target popular leaders, for instance, the Baroda Dynamite case and the Secunderabad conspiracy.
While the Baroda Dynamite case was suspended after Janata Party intervention, the Secunderabad trials dragged on for years even as some of the accused died. Eventually, most were released as the charges against them couldn’t be established.
