Bharat Mukti Morcha strongly condemns Police harassment of
Rama Velip, President of Bharat Mukti Morcha, Colomba Unit, Sanguem.
Latest Police pressure tactics against Rama Velip began on 25th July
2012, one day after it was established in the Court of law at Sanguem that Fomento
used explosives to blast Hiralal Khodidas mine, Colomba in the year 2007 when
Fomento witness Babu Dayanand Gaonkar disclosed during cross
examination that blasting on this mine was stopped after Rama Velip filed
complaint against blasting.
Next day at around 11 am Rama Velip who belongs to Scheduled
Tribe got a call from Quepem police station asking him to report to the police station
with his lawyer as fresh criminal case was filed against him. Rama’s lawyer
Advocate John Fernandes called up Quepem Police Station to know about the
details of the case. Police refused to
divulge the details of the case. This is a serious violation of the human
Rights. Rama was not served call letter nor arrest warrant issued.
Then today 26th July 2012 team of four policemen
in a Police Jeep arrived at the residence of Rama Velip at 7.00 am in the
morning and sought to take him to the Police station. Rama Velip and the
Colomba villagers that gathered there sought call letter or arrest warrant to
take Rama Velip into Police custody. Police had none of the documents. After
arguing for 90 minutes police left Rama’s residence to an unknown destination
with their Jeep. It is unlawful on the part of Police to seek a custody of the
person without arrest warrant or call letter.
Then again today afternoon police arrived at the residence
of Rama Velip at 12.30 pm. This time they brought call letter from Quepem
Police Station asking Rama Velip to report to the Police station at 11.00 am. That means police came with the call letter to
the residence of Rama Velip in Colomba 90 minutes late. Rama Velip was not at
home. The call letter was pasted on the door of Rama Velip’s house and Police
went away. Why the call letter was delivered 90 minutes late by Police than the
Scheduled time of meeting at Quepem Police Station? The call letter bears
yesterday’s date viz 25th July 2012. If call letter was issued
yesterday then why it was not delivered on the first two occasions of the
Police visits to the residence of Rama Velip? This is very clear brahmanical
strategy of harassment by using police. The call letter states that case has
been registered against Rama Velip under sections 341, 323 and 506 of Indian
Penal Code that involves punishments for detainment, beating up and threats.
Police
are directly responsible to Home Minister. Goa’s Home
Minister is also Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar. Manohar Parrikar while
he was
in the opposition had visited Rama Velip and two of them even had under
taken visit to the
forests in Sanguem to examine illegal mining dumps in Forest. Rama Velip
is
known to Manohar Parrikar. Later on 19 June 2008 Mr.Parrikar colluded
with
Auduth Timblo and called Colamb villagers protesting against mining
industry ‘Naxalites’.
He made this statement in the Goa Legislative Assembly. When he faced
opposition from public he fled the county to USA and returned after one month. This is a brahmanical betrayal of Adivasis in Goa.
Colomba
villagers continued their opposition against mining
industry under the banner of GAKUVED and at one point of time had even
succeeded in shutting down Hiralal
Khodidas mine for few months till another bamon practicing medicine
Dr.Avadooth
Prabhudesai infiltrated into the movement and divided
the villagers and made sure that the mine re-starts to the detriment of
the
villagers agriculture. In fact he went for the coconut breaking ceremony
to re-start the mine. he broke the coconut himself. Every time he was
exposed he has been threatening the
villagers specially the tribal people.
Over
600 police cases are already filed against Colomba
villagers for protesting against mining industry and they have to make
trips to
the courts every week sometimes even twice or thrice a week. Filing of
police
cases has been the favorite strategy of creating fear amongst those
mulnivasis
opposing mining industry of then Congress Brahminism and continues in
the era of BJP Brahmanism. Yet in spite of all the fear villagers went
ahead
with the protests against all odds and this village is responsible to
break the
culture of silence against mining industry in Goa and to create large
scale awareness about
dangers of mining amongst people all over Goa and beyond.
Brahmanical forces viewed Colomba protests of tribal people
as threat to their system and tried various methods to defeat and demoralize
them. They could not succeed. Colomba villagers joined nationwide movement of
Bharat Mukti Morcha to free this country from the Brahmanical colonialism just like
we are free from Portuguese and British Colonialism. Brahmins are invaders from
Eurasian land and their DNA tests by Michael Bamshed of Uttah University, USA confirmed
that they are foreigners. Besides being foreigners they are also tiny minority.
What right do these Eurasian minority has to rule over Goa and India? They have
no right at all. Minority cannot rule over majority in Democracy. Their rule is
fraud and does not adhere to the Indian constitution with regard to implementation
of 5th Schedule of the Constitution guaranteeing self-rule of
Scheduled Tribes in Scheduled Areas.
In Goa Gawdas, Kunbis, Velips are declared as Scheduled
Tribes much against the wishes of Manohar Parrikar but 5th Schedule
is not implemented. This is the reason as to why police cases are being filed against
tribal people of Colomba, Cavrem and elsewhere.
Brahmanism of BJP tried its
level best to lead tribal people astray through various movements and tribal
people also got carried away. The best example to this is seen in 25th
May 2011 road blockade at Balli, Quepem in which two of the best of tribal
youth were burnt to death. Brahmins were behind this agitation as Brahmins wanted
to make sure that Tribal people of Goa are kept diverted in their attention
from raising the demand of implementation of 5th Schedule in Goa. Brahmins
were even seen mobilizing for this road blockade. Previous night one Brahmin
had come to the house of Rama Velip to invite him to the road blockade program
in Balli!
Manohar
Parrikar after taking over as Chief minister of Goa
is trying his very best to legitimize and legalize mining industry in
Goa. As a
Home Minister it is evident from the pressure tactics adopted by Quepem
Police,
Manohar Parrikar has decided to unleash police repression on those
protesting mining
industry. Rama Velip is the first target. He is targeted not only for
his fearless leadership but also for his ability to inspire people
to protest.
This time Rama Velip is not alone. This time he is heading
Colomba Unit of Bharat Mukti Morcha. This time fight back is not just against mining
industry. The force of Rama Velip is not just tribal people of Colomba but mulnivasis
people from every religion and every Jati across India. This is no longer a
contest between mining industry and agriculture. It is a fight between all the
mulnivasis of India and minority Eurasian Brahmins who has placed themselves in
the power through manipulation and deceit. We are entering into a decisive
stage of this battle and it is crystal clear as to who is the enemy of
mulnivasis of India. It is undoubtedly Brahmin, Bamon, Saraswats. This fight is going on all over the country and
this fight is on in Goa too. Fresh police cases filed against Rama Velip is a
Brahmanical assault on Mulnivasis. Bharat Mukti Morcha condemns filing of
police cases against Rama Velip.
There is a deeper conspiracy involved here. Bamons has
prepared a proxy from tribal community in order to file police cases against
Rama Velip. This has been done in order to create a fight amongst tribal people
themselves. Bharat Mukti Morcha has understood this conspiracy very well.
Bharat Mukti Morcha accepts Eurasian Brahmins as enemies and expects only genuine
enmity from them. For this has been the mulnivasi agitation tradition in India beginning
from Jyotibha Phule whom Manohar Parrikar has quoted in his last budget speech,
Shahu Maharaj and Vishwaratna Babasaheb Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar.
Police harassment of Rama Velip is part of Brahmanical
strategy to destroy self-reliant leadership of Scheduled Tribes in Goa. Rama
Velip has provided most daring and self reliant leadership to Scheduled Tribes
in Goa. He has not got carried away either by Brahmanism of Congress or BJP,
nor has he been carried away by Brahmanism of Anna Hazare and Ramdev Baba. This
is the reason as to why Brahmanical powers led by Avadooth Timblo, Manohar
Parrikar are so desperate to finish off this leadership. Rama Velip has
destroyed well planned Brahmanical strategy of segregation of Tribes, and he
has reached out and formed alliances with Scheduled Caste, OBC, Marathas,
Converted mulnivasis people etc. Naturally therefore when police cases are
filed against Rama Velip all the mulnivasi representatives across the board
have felt this Brahmanical aggression and believe that only fitting
retaliation in due course of time against Brahmanism will settle the scores. Dr. Ambedkar had done
this by burning of Manusmriti. Bharat
Mukti Morcha has already burned the budget of Manohar Parrikar’s BJP government
and Congress led Indian government in Colomba few months ago. Mulnivasis will
surely be generous in dishing out stronger retaliation through constitutional means as the need of the hour knocks our lives.
Bharat Mukti Morcha demands that police harassment of Rama
Velip be stopped immediately and all the police cases against him and all the anti-mining protestors from the Colomba village be withdrawn.

A Piece of American History That the Corporate Capitalists Want Us to Forget: Battle of Blair Mountain
A reminder that all the openings of our democracy were achieved with the toil, anguish and sometimes blood of radicals and popular fronts.
“And Hatfield became a marked man. After his acquittal of murder, coal bosses had him charged with dynamiting a coal tipple. When Hatfield and his young wife, as well as a friend, Ed Chambers, and Chambers’ wife, walked up the courthouse steps in Welch, W.Va., for the new trial, the two men were assassinated by Baldwin-Felts agents standing at the top. The assassinations set off the insurrection and triggered the Blair Mountain rebellion. The coal owners hastily organized militias and recruited units of heavily armed law enforcement officers. They hired private airplanes to drop homemade explosives on miners encamped on the mountain. Billy Mitchell , one of the early advocates of air power, volunteered the Army’s 88th Squadron to carry out aerial surveillance for the coal companies.”
