India: Attempted killing of human rights defender Dr Lenin Raghuvanshi
Dr Lenin Raghuvanshi
On 24 April 2013, at approximately 8pm, three unidentified assailants made an attempt on the life of human rights defender Dr Lenin Raghuvanshi. The attack took place at the human rights defender's home in the city of Varanasi, of the Uttar Pradesh province in northern India.
Dr Lenin Raghuvanshi is a founding member of the People's Vigilance Committee on Human Rights (PVCHR), which works for marginalised sections of the Indian population. An Ayurvedic physician by profession, he has been working for the rights of bonded and child labourers and other marginalised people in Varanasi and the eastern part of Uttar Pradesh. He was the recipient of theGwangju Human Rights Award in 2007, the Association for Communal Harmony in Asia (ACHA) Star Peace Award in 2008, and the 2010 International Human Rights Prize of the city of Weimar.
The human rights defender was at home on the evening of 24 April 2013 when three unknown assailants knocked on his door and called him outside. When he came out, he was fired upon with a pistol. The bullet missed, but as it did, another of the assailants produced a knife and attacked him. All three assailants then fled down the lane outside Lenin Raghuvanshi's home. The human rights defender tried to chase them on his scooter, but there was a JCB construction machine blocking his way at the end of the lane. The driver of the JCB also tried to attack the human rights defender before fleeing himself.
The human rights defender called the police and they arrived within ten minutes from the Paharia police outpost. However, no First Information Report was filed, and no steps were taken to increase Lenin Raghuvanshi's personal security. This is despite the fact that the human rights defender has been the victim of death threats before, and there is a persistent threat to his life as a result of his peaceful and legitimate work in defence of human rights. Front Line Defenders has previously issued an urgent appeal on his behalf on 2 December 2011.
Cashing in on prejudice: Police torture of Muslims in UP
http://www.merinews.com/article/cashing-in-on-prejudice-police-torture-of-muslims-in-up/15884761.shtml
Muslims are therefore denied the right to be
treated equally and the rights to have equal protection before the law.
One of the most gruesome human rights violations the Muslims face from
governmental bodies is the widespread use of torture by the police. The
police torture of Muslims in Uttar Pradesh, therefore, needs to be
highlighted and discussed.
There are two main developments of modern history that have led to
the growing marginalization as well as legislative and social
discrimination of the Muslim community. These historical events are the
partition of India in 1947 and the 9/11 attack in 2001.

Role of police in Varanasi of India for securing women rights: two faces
Yesterday (27 April, 2013), around 12 mid
night Shruti Nagvanshi, managing trustee of PVCHR along with our activist Mr. Shiv
Pratap Chaubey went to Sarnath police station regarding the abduction of 14
years old girl of Sarai Mohana under jurisdiction of Sarnath in Varanasi of
India. Near the Sarnath crossing Shruti Nagvanashi received threat from Station
House office, Sarnath. He said that it
is his area and he will see her. Being
as women, he also demoralized her by asking silly questions.
As on 15 April, 2013 14 years old Meena
(name changed) she was abducted through marriage by Vikas with the support of
Sheela (a neighbour of Meena). On 18 April, 2013 Meena family informed to the
Sarnath police but no FIR was lodged. After getting no help the family moved
and submitted application to Senior Superintendent of Police and inspector
General of Police and on their direction FIR was lodged on 23 April, 2013. But
S.O did not arrest the perpetrator or any action.
On 25 April, 2013 the hundred of people
protested outside Sarai Mohana police out post under Sarnath police station. On
the protest of local people police arrested Sheela on same day and yesterday
night the girl was rescued and released from Bihar and the perpetrator Vikas in
the custody of Sarnath police, but no statement before magistrate and medico-legal
report.
S.O Sarnath not only misbehaved with Shruti
but also give threat Shiv Pratap Chaubey on his mobile on 27 April, 2013 at
morning.
This is not only case of trafficking in
Saraimohana but 5 years before Saraimohana was centre for the chat pat marriage
but after PVCHR intervention it finished. Now again it started around 15 girls
got chat pat marriage and they never come back to see their family again.

The viscous cycle of exploitation and injustice with women
Increasingly, states are seen as responsible for protecting the
rights of women even in connection with offenses committed within homes.
The challenge is to end impunity for the perpetrators as one means of
preventing future abuse.
We are living in such a society today in India
where women are not in a position to oppose any act of violence, and
misbehaviour with her. She might be educated or may be living in a
village the situation is the same. India’s traditional patriarchal
system puts women at the lowest ebb of the community, whatever be the
society but the dalit, minority and poor women are further pushed to the
wall under the caste system and poverty.
Dalit, minority and poor women are subjected to discrepancies on the
basis of the religion, caste, poverty by the patriarchal and caste based
society. Women being subjected to violence, rape and inhuman behaviour
are a matter of shame for any society however progressive the society
might be. But in India such attitude towards the dalit, minority and
poor women is not only common and is at extreme.
Even today the age old myth of a women becoming Dyan (witch) is
followed and women are killed under this belief. The law is unable to
act in such cases and, even does not lodge reports, forget action. If
women raise a voice against such practice not only the women but her
entire family and her advocates have to bear the brunt and is ostracized
by the entire society/village.
Atrocity upon women and children continues without even thinking what
circumstances they face and what mental torture they have to bear or
what kind of security they need. The society instead of helping the
victim of such violence keeps mum and thereby extends a quiet support to
the offenders. Similarly the ones who work for victim women, the human
rights defenders are also attacked so that they may retract their
support. By all means the women are forced to step back if she is
resisting the violence and torture.
Women who manage to reach police station to lodge complaint and not
behaved with properly and they are made to sit for hours together with
the family before anyone listens to them. And later on the women is
pressurized to take back her complaint. There have been many cases of
custodial rape with women and girls child who went to lodge report and
for protection with police. Women are blamed for any act of violence
with them. The worst is those women victims are made to sit with her
offender inside police station, which is another way of psychological
torturing her. Presence of the offender beside gives shocks to mind and
thoughts of that act often give pain to the victim, which is difficult
to even understand.
The women and her family are made to feel down but the offender is not
even once made to realize what offence he has done. Investigation in
cases are started late hence the criminals get enough time to remove
evidences and thereby the case becomes weak. Even the women officers are
no less than their male counterparts and behave the same way with women
victims as the male officers do. The support to women victim depends
upon how much she can pay as bribe to the investigating officer.
Usually justice comes delayed as ‘justice delay is justice denied’ under
the present judicial system. The judiciary itself has less number of
women judges. But the court’s utmost delayed process in cases of
atrocity with women is point to be noted. When justice is delayed often
women victim are forced to make out of the court settlement on the
conditions proposed by the offender itself. Delay in judgement given the
entire benefit to the criminals. In many cases it has been seen that
the lawyer appointed to fight the case for victim join hands with
offender and delays the perusal of the case.
In the courtrooms the attitude of the lawyers towards cases of women
rights is traditional based on patriarchy and they are themselves
unaware about the rules that protect a woman from violence and make the
case complicated.
Not even the national and state women commissions are taking steps that
can help women positively. Women commission itself is governed with
patriarchal mind set. The selection of women commission office bearers
is totally political and only those women who are close to the ruling
party are appointed here, which in unscientific and irrational. These
appointed members lack even the basic of women rights which is reflected
in the decisions they take. Of the cases brought before the women
commission very less are taken up by the commission.
As far as social security and development is concerned dalit, tribal and
minority women have little access and are subjected to dual atrocity
thereby. Those bodies that are responsible for women’s’ health services
are engaged in money making from these women only and ignore their
needs. At times women have lost their lives due to such an attitude.
So, in India, an ideal woman is supposed to be silent that nourishes the
system of patriarchy; men in the society take decisions and women
silently follow them. Society asks its women to be silent and obedient,
following all its norms and keeping up the same values as before.[i]
The global development projects initially made women invisible; being
heavily male biased, women’s productive role, often not directly linked
to the market or the formal economy, was ignored. Instead, their role as
reproductive individuals was made ultra-visible. Programmes to control
population growth, seen as a primary cause of poverty, began to spring
up, with women as targets. The socio-economic status of women declined
following their exclusion from agricultural development schemes.
Development not only ignored women but also had extremely detrimental
effects on women’s economic position. Women’s productivity began to
exist only in relation to its market value and how it could better be
exploited.
Indian women have been endowed with several responsibilities concerned
with the household and family circle. Nonetheless, now with the drift in
development and political policies, the onus of decision-making is also
laid on women. To provide enhanced representation to rural women in a
political world, specific provisions were incorporated in the
Constitution of India through the 73rd Amendment Act in 1992. A
significant provision of this Act is the reservation of one-third seats
for women in all positions in the local self-governance. The 73rd
amendment[ii] was a landmark for women’s empowerment.
Through this amendment, participation of women from all caste was
encouraged at the village level. Education is an imperative factor for
the empowerment of human beings. But education is given little or no
importance in rural villages. The situation of women is even worse as
least interest is shown towards their education. After all, education
develops insight and helps the representative carry out the day to-day
activities and making political decisions. Lack of or low literacy level
hinders women’s active participation in panchayat (Local
self-governance) activities.
It also makes women more dependent on men for paper work. In fact, most
women sarpanchs (village heads) are not allowed to work freely. They are
either forced to sign on papers prepared by influential lobbies or
become part of their husbands’ politics.
They are victims of politics by influential persons or the ploys of
panchayat secretaries, corrupt administration system and the tactics of
powerful locals in the villages. They are removed from office through
forced no-confidence motions. They have been threatened and humiliated.
At the village level, officials, whether junior or senior, are often
found to be anti-women even though it has been proven that these women
sarpanchs can make a difference if they are allowed to perform.
Lack of preparation on the part of rural women for political affairs is
also a factor for their low enthusiasm. The rural population, especially
women, is less equipped with the information on the rural governance
system. Lack of awareness about the systems and procedures regarding
functioning of governance are main cause for subdued leadership in
panchayats. Information helps elected representatives understand their
roles and responsibilities with regard to Panchayati Raj (local
self-governance). Women elected representatives who are more active and
aware perform brilliantly in their political offices whereas women who
are less aware do not perform that well and end up becoming dummy
elected candidates.
Increasingly, however, states are seen as responsible for protecting the
rights of women even in connection with offences committed within home.
The challenge is to end impunity for the perpetrators as one means of
preventing future abuse.

बनारस में मानवाधिकार एक्टिविस्ट लेनिन रघुवंशी पर जानलेवा हमला
बनारस में मानवाधिकार एक्टिविस्ट लेनिन रघुवंशी पर जानलेवा हमला
एक्सकैलिबर स्टीवेंस विश्वास
बनारस बनारस के कैंट क्षेत्र के दौलतपुर में बुधवार , को शाम आठ बजे मानवाधिकार जननिगरानी समिति के समन्वयक डा. लेनिन रघुवंशी पर उनके ही घर के बाहर अज्ञात लोगों ने गोली चला दी। गोली निशाना चूक गयी और डा. लेनिन बच गये।पीछा करने पर एक बदमाश ने उनपर चाकू से हमला कर दिया।लेनिन के हाथ में चोट आयी है।वे कुछ मेहमानों को बाहर छोड़कर जैसे ही मुड़े , उनपर गोली चला दी गयी।फायरिंग करने से पहले उन्होंने डा. लेनिन को किसी मामले की पैरवी के लिए धमकाया, वे जवाब देते इससे पहले ही गोली चल गयी।केंट थाने में दर्ज रपट में लेनिन ने हमलावरों की उम्र १६ से २१ साल के बीच बतायी है।
यूनेस्को, यूनिसेफ, यूरोपीय समुदाय जैसी संस्थाओं के साथ तालमेल रखकर दो दशकों से सक्रिय अंतरराष्ट्रीय ख्याति के इस मानवाधिकार कर्मी पर अखिलेश राज में हमले से दुनियाभर के मानवाधिकारकर्मियों में हड़कंप मच गया है।वंचितों के अधिकारों पर इनके कामों के लिये इन्हें 'वाइमर ह्युमन राइट्स अवॉर्ड', जर्मनी एवं 'ग्वांजू ह्युमन राइट्स अवॉर्ड', दक्षिण कोरिया से नवाज़ा गया है। प्रख्यात समाज सेवी एडमिरल भागवत ने तुरंत मेल करके लेनिन के साथ एकजुटता जतायी है। मालूम हो कि जननिगरानी समिति ने अभी कुछ ही समय पहले उत्तरप्रदेश में अल्पसंख्यकों पर उत्पीड़ने के दर्जनों मामलों की बनारस में ही जनसुनवाई की थी और इस सिलसिले में जस्टिस सच्चर की विस्तृत रपट भी आ चुकी है।
डा. लेनिन से जब फोन पर बात हुई तो उन्होंने हमलावरों की पहचान अज्ञात बताया और इस मामले के पीछे राजनीति की आशंका पर टिप्फणी करने से इंकार कर दिया। उनके मुताबिक पुलिस प्रशासन और सरकार को सूचना दी गयी है।भिना सबूत के कुछ कहना मुश्किल है।उन्होंने कहा कि एक माफिया पर मकोका लगाने के लिए केंद्र सरकार को उन्होंने पत्र लिखा था।एक अन्य माफिया के खिलाफ भी कार्रवाई करने की उन्होंने मांग की है। सरकार और पर्शासन की जिम्मेवारी है कि जांच कराये और समुचित कार्रवाई करें। डा. लेनिन के आवास पर पुलिस की तरफ से सुरक्षा इंतजाम कर दिया गया है। पर उनके जैसे सक्रियमानवाधिकार कर्मी के लिए सुरक्षा घेरे में काम करना असंभव है। जाहिर है कि मामूली अपराधकर्मियो के लिए लेनिन जैसे मसहूर शख्सियत पर बिना राजनीतिक संरक्षण के हमला करना असंभव है। मानवाधिकार संगठनोंकी मांग है कि उच्चस्तरीय जाँच कराकर मानवाधिकार कार्यकर्ता के जान – माल की रक्षा व मानसिक प्रताड़ना से निजात दिलाया जाना आवश्यक और न्यायसंगत हैं।
डा० लेनिन और मानवाधिकार जननिगरानी समिति साम्प्रदायिक राजनीति के तहत पूर्व नियोजित फैजाबाद दंगे की जांच व पूर्व प्रेषित खुफिया एजेंसी व इंटेलीजेंस ब्यूरो की खबर को ध्यान न देने में पुलिस व स्थानीय प्रशासन की निष्क्रियता के सन्दर्भ में मुहिम छेड़े हुए हैं।
डॉ. लेनिन जाने-माने मानवाधिकार कार्यकर्ता हैं. उत्तरप्रदेश के जिस इलाके़ में लेनिन और उनकी संस्था ‘मानवाधिकार जननिगरानी समिति’ कार्यरत् है, वहां सवर्णों की दबंगई और दलित उत्पीड़न कोई नयी बात नहीं है। कट्टर मजहबी ताकतों द्वारा अल्पसंख्यकों के साथ भी जोर-जुल्म होता रहा है। लेनिन की अगुवाई में ‘मानवाधिकार जननिगरानी समिति’ तकरीबन दो दशकों से जातीय और साम्प्रदायिक दमन की मुखालफत कर रही है। लेनिन लगातार मानवधिकार रिपोर्टिंग करते रहे हैं। उनकी कई रिपोर्टों पर प्रशासनिक कार्रवाई भी हुई और पीडितों को न्याय भी मिला।समिति वंचित समुदायों जैसे – अल्पसंख्यक, दलितों और अति वंचित समुदाय मुसहर के अधिकारों को सुनिश्चित करने के लिये संघर्षरत है। इसी सन्दर्भ मे कई भू – माफिया, उच्चजाति के लोग शोषक वर्ग के है, के विरूद्ध गरीब, दलितो की जमीन को कब्जा मुक्ति हेतु उच्चस्तरीय लिखा पढ़ी की जाती है तथा शासन – प्रशासन द्वारा व आयोग द्वारा मेरे प्रार्थना पत्र पर दोषियो के खिलाफ सख्त कार्यवाही की जाती है। बीते दिनों उन्हें फोन पर जान से मारने की धमकी भी मिलती रही है।उन्हें मानवाधिकार इउल्फलंघन मामलों में अभियुक्र्जीतों की ओर से मामले में भी फंसाने की कोशिशें लगातार होती रही हैं।मसलन 29 नवम्बर, 2011 को मो0 नं0 – +94757251733 से कई बार बंक काल ( missed call ) आया तथा 5:27 P.M. बजे इसी नम्बर से लेनिन के मो0 नं0 – + 91-9935599333 पर फोन कर लगातार गाली देते हुए कहा गया , “ मानवाधिकार मतलब …….. ( गाली देते हुये ) तुम्हे उठवा लेंगे, ज्यादा बनोगे तब गोली मरवा देंगे “ जैसी धमकी दिया ! उस समय डॉ. लेनिन कार्यालय में बैठक में थे और उस दौरान समिति के कई सदस्य भी उपस्थिति थे !
