जब हाथरस में गैंगरेप का आरोप लगा था, तभी से हमें पता था कि लड़की मरते समय भी वामपंथियों के प्रभाव में झूठ बोल रही है। फॉरेंसिक रिपोर्ट भी आ गई थी, कोई रेप नहीं था।

फिर मीडिया के दबाव में आ कर प्रशासन को जबरन ‘गैंगरेप’ को आरंभ बिंदु मान कर कार्रवाई करनी पड़ी। सत्य सामने है।

ठाकुर पुत्र का ठाकुर पिता खेत में धान काट रहे थे। रोते हुए कह रहे थे कि हम काहे के ठाकुर, बेटा जेल में है और हम रोजी चलाने के लिए खेत में काम कर रहे हैं।

यही हालत हर सवर्ण की है। हर ठाकुर घोड़े पर तलवार लिए नहीं घूम रहा। मीडिया सवर्णों को क्रूर, निर्दयी दिखाना चाहती है।

क्या मीडिया संदीप समेत बाकी चार युवकों को उनके ढाई वर्ष लौटाएगी? क्या उन्हें बलात्कारी कह कर चिल्लाने वाली मीडिया उन्हें मानसिक प्रताड़ना से मुक्त कर पाएगी?

हमें इस भेदभाव को ले कर स्वर उठाना चाहिए। आप उस माता-पिता के बारे मे सोचिए दिनके बच्चे को बलात्कारी बता दिया गया। #Hathras

#Hathras On 10 October 2020 CBI confirms gangrape, but surprisingly today court acquits 3 accused.

Who manipulates evidence...
Her spine was broken, her arms and legs were broken, her tongue was cut off. Only one man is responsible how ?

Culprits Thakur, Police SHO Thakur, Judge Thakur, DM Thakur, CM Thakur, There is no justice for Dalits.
Special Court in Hathras said this isn't a case of gang rape. Out of four accused, three are acquitted of all charges and one convicted just under Section 304 and the SC/ST Act...

"Don't torture the poor people, we have been living for so many days sir, let it be" they cried.

Pramila Dixit & Neha who died in a fire in Kanpur Dehat, kept begging in front of authorities. Officials did not melt and turned deaf, demolished everything, house, temple and all.
This is Pramila Dixit of Kanpur Dehat | She and her daughter Neha Dixit burned to ashes last evening. When she was alive, she was running to the authorities in hope of getting justice after being razed to the ground by Lekhpal. Listen to what she was saying 🥲
Mother and daughter threatened to set themselves on fire. Later, while protesting they locked themselves inside the hut. After a while, a fire broke out inside the hut, and as a result, the woman and her daughter were burnt alive.

Reasons:
1- Caste system wasn’t just oppressive, it was also pervasive, manipulative, coercion.
The theories of Karma, the ‘Birth from the toe’, the ‘Sins of past lives’ etc were used by the ‘philosophers’ to manipulate the victims into believing they deserved their fate. #Thread
Slavery lasted in Europe for thousands of years. Trans Atlantic slave trade in America lasted for 250 years
Despite of the fact that these slaves were not manipulated and preconditioned to believe that ‘they deserved it due to past life sins’.
Does that mean slavery didn’t exist?
The extent of how pervasive this Caste practices shit is that even today people practice Caste in each facet of their lives while constantly denying caste discrimination ever existed?? How do you live with this cognitive dissonance??

"Kasam Ram ki khate hai, hum bhi Raavan marenge." Raavan here is @BhimArmyChief . Here's what's happening in #Hathras a year after a Dalit girl was gang-raped and 'forcibly' cremated in the dead of the night by UP Police. Stay with me. #Thread
The man in yellow scarf is Pankaj Dharvaiyya, chief of Rashtriya Savarana Parishad, who had last year threatened to kill Bhim Army Chief Chandrasekhar Azad in police presence. The video had gone viral. He had then taken out a rally in support of the four Thakur rape accused.
A year later, he is out on bail and threatening to kill again. Two days back Bhim Army Chief Chandrasekhar Azad visited the Dalit family who has been living under CRPF protection since a year. Dharvaiyya didn't approve. So he reached the village but was not allowed.

A thread on the Hathras gangrape and murder case.

Yes, in Sept 2020 an extraordinary act of violence took place but it doesn't end there.

This is the story of what happens to a dalit family after they fall out of the news cycle.

You can find all our stories and videos here.
On Sept 14, Asha (name changed) was found naked, bleeding and barely alive.

She had apparently been gangraped.

After 2 weeks of fighting for her life, she died. Alone & quietly.

This is the story of what happened.

@akanksha_kumar3 and I write.

newslaundry.com/2020/09/29/hel…
“My daughter is still alive. She is begging for justice. She wants to go home. Help us” Asha's father pleaded

@akanksha_kumar3 & I met her family much before her case became headlines. As we filmed, Asha lay meters away from us, fighting to stay alive

UP ATS and Police hv arrested national head of the #PFI’s HIT SQUAD- Anshad Badruddin & Firoz—(national trainer on BOMB-MAKING). They wr carrying highly explosive material. 1 of them ws also involved in #Hathras case. Hd plans to eliminate” 20-25 #RSS workers across many states.
PFI hd received Rs 120 crores during CAA protests. Yet it ws allowed a space to breathe. High time this organisation is banned. Both the guys r martial art experts & frm Kerala. Why am i not surprised? 🙄
#PFI’s general secretary,K Rauf Sharif might also be picked up frm Kerala. The guy hd added fuel to the fire of Hathras case. Also let us not forget the bonhomie CPIM govt shares PFI. I expect a drama around his arrest frm Kerala.

Thread #Hathras

Sources : The charge sheet filed by CBI in the #HathrasCase is filled with flaws and three innocents have been roped in as accused, in spite of them having strong alibis.

While the prime accused did commit the act and there is strong evidence against him, 1/n
the remaining three were implicated only based on their ‘tower location’ of their cell phones. Two of the accused who are implicated were employees of a dairy located a kilometre away from the scene of crime (SoC) and witnesses working in the dairy, 2/n
had given statements that the two accused were working in the dairy at the time of crime. The other innocent accused was present in a place away from SoC and witnesses had deposed that he too was not in the SoC.

CBI comprises fine officers with investigating skills. 3/n

Supreme Court bench headed by Justice NV Ramana hears a plea against the publication of the #Hathras victim photograph in the media. Plea also questions the delay in trial of sexual violence cases
#SupremeCourt
Justice Ramana: These issues have nothing to do with law. People want to do such things. Right to freedom of expression is there. There is enough law for this. It is unfortunate that such incidents happen
SC: We can't legislate law after law. Its not for the wisdom of the court to legislate here. Make representation to the govt

..BJP will not leave any margin for error henceforth and let any form of sabotage occur.

For us it looks like just another State Elections, but the elections in the state affects the math in Rajya Sabha. Now we also want numerous laws, bills, amendments to be passed..UCC,....
Population Control Bill etc etc.

To successfully secure this aspect, one also needs figures in the Upper House. What we aren't discussing in this heat is the RS elections in UP. But the Centre and the BJP core committee has to be vigilant enough to make sure they stand tall ..
with fortitude.

Every action that happens in interlinked. If some incidence occurs in one part of the country, it's tremors are felt at the other end which we won't be even aware of..but Modi and his team has to be on their toes.

Modi can't afford to falter at this stage.

Absolutely nonsensical comparison.

Bajaj has stated an intent to not advertise alongside hateful content. It is to uphold basic human values/decency. Plus Bajaj DID NOT troll/abuse the channels or editors, land up at their studios to threaten them. He didn't even NAME ANYONE.
Bajaj wants to stay away from content that is beyond reasonable doubt 'toxic'.

Those opposed to #tanishq, on the other hand, are opposed to the idea of inter-faith love. It's the sort of mentality that has made life hell for young couples in India. Even so...
...it doesn't stop at distaste for what the ad showcases. In the case of Tanishq there is a real attack online and offline, managers being trolled, people landing up at the store threatening staff, hurling abuses at them.

Let’s talk about Ecosystem. I’m putting it straight without mincing words.

What happened in #Hathras case and #Rajasthan priest death case?

- National politicians from the Congress and other parties visited the victim family.
- No national leader of BJP went to Rajasthan. (1/n)
What about the compensation?

- Opposition demanded more and gave some compensation in Hathras. Yogi govt gave ₹25 lakh, govt job and flat.

- No serious pressure on the Rajasthan govt by the BJP. Gehlot is keeping mum.

(2/n)
What about the protests and dissent?

- In every major city, protests for Hathras were organised by the groups and demand of resignation of Yogi.

- No protests on ground for Rajasthan. No demand of resignation. Not even in a BJP ruled state.
