*Rally to denounce the murder of RTI Activist Amit Jethwa
*
One more dead. Yet another person who raised his voice against corruption
was killed. And we remain silent.
Politicians, parties, the government, officials, moneyed people and
criminals have joined hands. They constitute a gang that is robbing the
nation. Anyone who dares to raise his voice against this gang is killed.
There is only one solution to this mayhem—the voice of the people. This
recent spate of brutal and senseless murders of those who have raised their
voice against corruption is a warning: our democracy is in danger; our own
lives are in danger. We are the only ones who can set this right.
Whenever any activist exposes corruption against someone mighty in the
government, it is futile to expect any protection from police, which is
directly controlled by the political executive. It is also futile to expect
the anti-corruption agencies in that state to take any effective action
because these anti-corruption agencies are directly controlled by political
executive. The police and anti-corruption agencies, on the contrary, collude
with the corrupt. They either turn a blind eye to complaints and threats or
openly victimize the complainant.
Therefore, there is a strong need for an institution which is completely
independent of political executive and has adequate powers and resources to
deal with such issues.
A rally has been organized to denounce the murder of Amit Jethwa and demand
that all parties make a public commitment to put appropriate systems in
place to address corruption.
This rally will take place on Monday, July 26, 2010 at 6 pm. We will gather
at Gandhi Peace Foundation (ITO, in front of Deen Dayal Upadhyaya library)
and move toward the Samadhi of Babu Jagjivan Ram (in front of Rajghat).
Please come and join us for this important event. Let us raise our voices
together!
The rally is jointly being organized by several organizations including
NCPRI, Parivartan, National Alliance for People's Movement (NAPM), Aasha
Parivar, Yva Koshish, Journalist's Union for Civil Society, Sadbhav Mission,
Lohia Vichar Manch, Hum Hindustani, Journalist for Peace, Pardarshita, IGSS,
Shahari Adhikar Manch etc.
