Senior journalist held after report on dy CMO

TNN | Jun 27, 2011, 12.36am IST
LUCKNOW: In an alleged attempt to gag the media for the recent coverage of rising crime graph in the state, Hazratganj police on Sunday night rounded up Shalabh Mani Tripathi, the bureau chief of IBN-7 news channel. He was released after an hour.

But scores of journalists marched up to the CM's residence on Kalidas Marg around midnight to register their protest against police high-handedness.

Tripathi was rounded up from a fast food joint in Hazratganj. Police claimed that his driver had misbehaved with a police constable's wife and when the cops present there tried to stop him, Tripathi retaliated aggressively and was, therefore, detained.

However, the move, coming immediately after the channel's report about the government's medico legal cell official's comment that injury marks on the body of deputy CMO YS Sachan, who was found dead in the jail, could not have been self-inflicting, raised a question mark over the police action.

Tripathi says he was picked up by SP (East) BP Ashok and another officer whom he did not recognize by name. The two senior cops even ordered their subordinate to thrash him to 'teach a lesson'. But the constables did not oblige.

He was released only after some journalists reached the police station and started seeking reason for Tripathi's detention.

Sucuide death in Bundelkhand

Sunday, June 12, 2011

Why civil disobedience is the best way to destroy a corrupted political regime (The Indian case)

India used to call her selves as the "world's largest democracy". Theoretically, this is true. The election game empowering the people to elect their leaders through the representative system and, by this way, seems makes them the real holders of political power. But in the practical level, this pretending democracy revels themselves as a political regime where money is actually the main base of power. In political sciences, we call this kind of political regime: a plutocracy.
In such state, all reforms and progressives changes are paralyze by corruption. It is for this reason that corrupt practices are often linked with conservatism society, in which those possessing wealth become the only holders of the political power and are the only ones able to influence the political games. On the other hand, peoples who occupy official positions made confusion between private and public interests. It fallows from this that all this system is based on a cliental relation's game, where officials works for themselves instead of serving interests of Indian people – as they are supposed to do.
For this reason, it is difficult to ask to peoples who take advantage of the system to reform it. Furthermore, many leaders will argues that India is a youth democracy and that it takes times to changes such practice because "the establishment of a true democracy requires a long apprenticeship". But during the time that those leaders "learns by doing" and continue to invoke the time constraint, they benefit of this long "transition time" to full fit their pockets before retirement.
Actually, the main problem when corruption becomes the base of a political system: is that it works too well.
But simple solutions exist, even if many people often argue that it is a "complex problem". In Hong-Kong for example, they have created an independent commission against corruption (ICAC) who was able to eradicate a wide part of such practice. This experiment – and others – clearly emphasizes that the end of a corrupt system first of all depends of the strength of the political will.
In India, many associations and organisations try to put a term on corrupt practices. But what can they do in front of a system so effective? As long as they'll have enough money to feed this clientelism[i] network, it will be impossible to destroy it in order to establish a true democracy. Because clientalism relations are based on a "give to give" relation where money is exchange to obtain power and vice versa.  
It is also interesting to note that the incomes of public money that which allows the system to persist mainly come from tax paid by citizens. Lots of political leaders are actually using public money to maintain their position in the system or increase their power, and many officials – in the police or administration – take directly money on the people's wallet. So, in the both situation, it is always the citizen who pay the bill.
In a way, we can say that it is the honest Indian tax's payer who feed this corrupted system witch paradoxically destitute him/her from his/her right to govern the country through the representative democratic system.
For this reason, it seems that the best way to avoid corruption in official offices is to refuse to pay tax anymore until government takes effective measure to ban such practices. What better way to destroy a system based on money that shut off the money tap to grind the wheels well-oiled of the system? Without incomes money, it's all the machinery that will breaking out. It is for this reason that a civil disobedience movement lead by citizens who refuses to pay taxes anymore seems to be the faster way to destroy a plutocracy trough a democratic action.
But a civil disobedience movement is not a means of political pressure as another. Using that kind of method supposed to understand that it is an ultimate resource for the case where all the others attempts have failed. It requires also an education of the masses in order to avoid inappropriate behavior and remain a nonviolent practice. Gandhi-ji has well understood that when is launched his hartal in 1919. For him, it was important to start from an inner individual change before looking for external public result. It is for that reason that he asked for a national hunger strike days during the hartal.
Civil disobedience movement has also the advantage to involve directly the people on a political issue. Even on a representative system, it is indeed important to involve au maximum those who are supposed to have the power. There is an old saying that goes "if you do not go to politics, politics will come to you". That means that peoples have the chose to act or just react, and if they don't want to make their own choice other peoples will choices for them.
But people should also know that refuse to pay tax is dangerous and that the citizens who accept to be part of this struggle risk to face sever repression, especially for the lower caste. For all that, it is important that peoples who choice to be part of this process accept to keep respect the others laws and refuse to use violence. This is maybe the most important thinks because the aim of such movement is to establish a true democracy, which must necessarily be based on respect for the rule of law. It is therefore important to understand the scope of this choice and accept its consequences – as example prison sentences.
A true democracy should also be based on a secular state who allows freedom of worship and multi-confessionality. That means that religions, as a personal believe, should remain in the private sphere of people's lives and there should be a strong separation between temporal and spiritual power. It is clear that it is not the case in India. For this reason, we don't need religious political protest such the hunger strike launched by Baba Ramdev (who is a spiritual leaders and should not interact on political issues) or the launch of a satyagraha (nonviolent protest) by the Sangh Parivar, an Hindu ultra nationalist movement. This is the people of India, as citizen of this country and not as religious representing, which we need to improve the system.
Finally, it is important to finish this civil disobedience proposition by mentioning the fact that corruption is one of the biggest problems in India. Many others issues that face the country can't be solving – or takes a lot of times to be solved – because of this hierarchical system of private interest. A Corrupted system supposed to be based on a rigid pyramidal organization of society in which each stage of power take its little part of the money cake by shifting the financial burden on the shoulders of citizens who are on the bottom of the social hierarchy. This is for this reason that everybody is concern by this issue and that the best way to establish a true democracy is a united public action who involving all the forces of the society. A collective and unitize action in the respect for all diversity.

Open letter to Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh against the threat for rule of Law


Respected Bhahan Ji,

 I want to bring in your kind attention towards the news published in today various newspapers in Varanasi of India.  http://www.scribd.com/doc/57065296/SDM-Sadar-Mr-Vivek-IAS-officer-started-enquiry-against-PVCHR-for-defending-the-case-of-bonded-labour

On 4th June, 2011 Dainik Jagaran in page no 9 published " Shak Ke ghere mein NGO" (NGO in the circle of doubt) and wrote three days before one  NGO produced the cognizance to district administration regarding 12 bonded labour in the brick kiln factory situated in cholapur and which became counterfeit. SDM gave the order to Tehsilar for the enquiry against the NGO.

It is known that on 31st May, 2011 Nanhu, Asha and Ram Awatar of Musahar community came to my office and I personally spoke to them in detail. Afterwards on 1st June, 2011 affidavit of Puspa, Munna, Ram Avatar, Asha and Nanhu was written before the District Magistrate. http://www.scribd.com/doc/57067129/Affidavit-of-bonded-labour   I did all these things as the member of the district vigilance committee on bonded labour under Bonded labour Act 1976 and I am also Executive Director/Secretary General of Peoples' Vigilance Committee on Human Rights (PVCHR) So, I took the help from the PVCHR activist Mr. Shiv Pratap Chaubey to take the runaway bonded labour to meet with the district administration.

These people went to the office of Hon'b ADM (Administration) office. After reading the testimonies as affidavits and taking with the bonded labour, he immediately send them to the SDM Sadar, Mr. Vivek. On SDM instruction, Nayab Tehsildar (sri Ragvendra Singh) and Labour office did raid the brick kiln factory.

After raid Nayab Tahsildar (a Revenue officer) gave 500 Rs conveyance to the bonded labour to return back to home. Sri Shiv Pratap Chaubey took Mushars to the office of SDM. Where they were given threat by the SDM and he also said immediately I will call to S.P Chanduali to bring your criminal history, on which immediately our colleague Sri Mrityunjay intervened and he was also threaten.  http://www.scribd.com/doc/57069958/Shiv-Pratap-Affidavit  http://www.scribd.com/doc/57066741/Statement-of-Mrityunjay

Instantly PVCHR release urgent appeal and sent letter to all concerned authorities including National Human Rights Commission. http://www.pvchr.net/2011/06/india-indian-administrative-service.html

 In this context on 2nd June, 2011 a daily newspaper Hindustan published "5 families were released from brick kiln" which write on the information of Dr. Lenin and direction of SDM, Sadar revenue department liberated 5 bonded families from the brick kiln factory in Gosaipur in evening.

After getting threat from SDM, Mushars became afraid. On my personal request PVCHR activists provided psychological support through testimonial therapy to the fearful labours. After that statement of Nanhu resident of Chanduali and Sudarshan from Gazipur were recorded in the video.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiPHg-R9exg&feature=share, http://www.youtube.com/pvchrindia#p/a/u/0/LqeLpD5L-qQ

In the statement it is clearly stated about the ill –treatment and getting forceful signature on the paper. Together with them the testimony of other labour were taken.

In the judgment given by honorable Supreme Court in the case of Neeraja Chaudhary vs. State of M.P on 1984. It is clearly stated that often big official send Tehsildar and he directly ask question – are you bonded? When the advance is given or any economical obstacle is should be believed as bonded.

If you look the news published on 4th June, 2011 newspaper which wrote problem about less reimbursement of wages and 56 thousand as advance to workers. It is the clearly case of bonded labour as mentioned under judgement of judgment given by honorable Supreme Court in the case of Bandhuwa Mukti Morcha vs. Government of India.

Hon'b  SDM instead of doing enquiry on the Bonded Labour System (Abolition) Act, 1976, Payment of Wages Act, 1936; Minimum Wages Act, 1948; Prevention of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Atrocities) Act, 1989; Interstate Migrant Workmen (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Services) Act, 1979; Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970; Child Labour (Prohibition and Regulation) Act, 1976; and Weekly Holidays Act, 1942 is giving threat to member of the district bonded labour vigilance committee, colleagues of his organization and bonded labour. Now the news is published in the newspaper to suppress the fact and defamation it and giving threat for the indirect enquiry.

In such condition I am putting my resignation in this context from membership of District committee on Bonded labour with the given below demands –

o   To conduct high level enquiry and take appropriate action for the entire circumstances.

o   Provide security to the labours.

 

Thanking You

Sincerely Yours
