["Home Department (Political A) Proceedings, March 1910, nos. 87-106”, pp. 4-5.]

Jackson was district collector of Nasik, he was primarily responsible for Jailing Baburao Savarkar at Andaman Jail (Elder brother of Veer Savarkar & Founder of Abhinav Bharath).

The Trio were
4/7

aghast for the gross injustice meted out to Baburao & also for hurting Hindu sentiments. A poor Hindu had been killed by an English man, but Jackson denied Justice..

These incidents culminated in anger & they wanted to teach British "Hindu Lives Matter"
and hence decided

to take revenge.

In the trial, known as the "Nasik Conspiracy case", opened on 23rd January 1911, it was contended by the prosecution that the pistol used in the murder was one of the twenty which Savarkar had been able to send surreptitiously to India.

Accused guilty of

abetting the crime,. Vinayak Savarkar was awarded 2 terms of transportation for life, totalling 50 years, one for waging war against British empire and the other for being an associate in the murder of Arthur Jackson.

After their death, the British didn't handover the
7/7

bodies to family, instead they burnt it & immersed their ashes in Sindhu Maha Sagar.

The Marathi movie "1909" is based on these youth icons.

Mr. Maunmohan, Where were you?

Where were you Mr Maunmohan when your colleagues did Character Assassination of entire Scientific Community?

Where were you when medical professionals were essentially being called frauds by your party and its extended ecosystem?
India approved Image
two vaccines in early January 2021. It should have been a moment of celebration because one vaccine #Covaxin was completely indegenously developed and manufactured while the other vaccine #Covishield was also locally manufactured. What followed though was one of the most
shameful chapters in modern Indian political discourse.
No Patriot will forget the campaign done by top Congress leaders who went on to shame Bharat Biotech's Covaxin in front of the world.

Where were you Mr Maunmohan at that time when your friendly media discredited Covaxin
