Dalit History Month – Remembering freedom fighter Uda Devi


Today in Dalit History we honor freedom fighter Uda Devi. While upper caste histories highlight the resistance contributions of upper caste heroines like Jhansi Rani, the reality is that the war for independence was won by Dalit and Bahujan resistance fighters like Uda Devi and Jhalkaribai. Uda Devi and her other Dalit sisters were the warriors or “Viranginis” of the 1857 Indian Rebellion against the British East India Company. These women were fierce independent fighters whose bravery inspires event till today.

Uda Devi was born in a small village in Awadh, Uttar Pradesh. Seeing the rising anger of the Indian people with the British administration, she reached out to Begum Hazrat Mahal to enlist for war. In order to prepare for the battle that was headed their way, the Begum helped her form a women’s battalion under her command. When the British attacked Awadh, both Uda Devi and her husband were part of the armed resistance. When she heard that her husband had become martyred in the battle, she unleashed her final campaign in full force.

After issuing instructions to her battalion, she climbed up a pipal tree and began shooting at advancing British soldiers. Her impact was so great that on November 16, 1857, a British officer noted that many of the British casualties had bullet wounds indicating steep, downward trajectory. Suspecting a hidden sniper, he ordered his officers to fire at the trees and dislodged a rebel who fell to the ground dead. Upon investigation, the sniper was revealed as Uda Devi .

More than a 150 years since her passing, the memory of Uda Devi’s sacrifice is kept alive by Dalit communities in Uttar Pradesh who cherish her as a model of fearless Dalit womanhood. To the spirit of independence and liberation we salute Uda Devi!

आज दलित इतिहास में हम याद करते हैं स्वंतंत्रता सेनानी उदा देवी को. जहां उच्च जाती का इतिहास सिर्फ झाँसी की रानी के जैसे ऊंची जाती के महिलाओं की बहादुरी को दर्शाता है, वास्तविकता में स्वतंत्रता की लड़ाई उदा देवी और झलकारी बाई जैसी वीरांगना दलित बहुजन महिलाओं की वजह से जीती गयी. उदा देवी और अन्य दलित बहनें १८५७ भारतीय क्रांति के असली वीरांगना हैं. इन् महिलाओं के जोश और बहादुरी आज भी हमें प्रेरित करती हैं.

उदा देवी अवध, उत्तर प्रदेश में एक छोटे गाँव में पैदा हुई. भारतीय जनता के ब्रिटिश सरकार के विरुद्ध बढ़ते आक्रोश को देखके उन्होंने बेगम हज़रात महल से युद्ध में भर्ती होने के लिए निवेदन किया. बेगम ने उनके नेतृत्व में एक महिला बटालियन बनायी. जब अंग्रेज़ों ने अवध पर हमला किया तब उदा देवी और उनके पति दोनों जंग में शामिल थे. जब उन्होंने सुना कि उनके पति शहीद हो गए तोह उन्होंने पूरी ताक़त के साथ अंग्रेज़ों पर हमला किया.

अपने बटालियन को आदेश देने के बाद वह एक पीपल के पेड़ पर चढ़ गईं और अंग्रेजी सेना पर गोलियां बरसाने लगी. उनका प्रभाव इतना गहरा तहत कि नवंबर १६, १८५७ को एक अंग्रेजी अफसर ने यह दावा किया की कई अंग्रेजी घाय सैनिकों को गाली ऊपरी दिशा से लगी थी जो यह जतलाता है कि कोई छिपा हुआ व्यक्ति गोलियां चला रहा था/थी. इस अफसर ने अपने सैनिकों को पेड़ की तरफ गोली चलाने का आदेश दिया. जब घायल होकर पेड़ से बाघी गिर पड़ा तो इस बात का खुलासा हुआ की वह व्यकति और कोई नहीं बल्कि उदा देवी थी.

उनके मृत्यु के १५० वर्ष बाद भी दलित समाज उनके बलिदान को नहीं भूला है जो उत्तर प्रदेश में उनके जोशीले स्त्रीत्व को याद करते हैं. स्वतंत्रता और मुक्ति के इस मिसाल उदा देवी को हम सलाम करते हैं.

केजरीवाल ने दलित समाज को दिया धोखा – शर्म करो दलित बजेट के चोर केजरीवाल


पहले दलित लोगो का बजट कम कर दिया पिछले साल केजरीवाल गवर्नमेंट ने ओर फिर उस में से भी 23% बजट के पैसे खर्च नही किए केजरीवाल सरकार ने. यह सब दलित विरोधी नही तो क्या है? दलित लोगो के वोट ले कर सरकार बनाया इस बनिया-ब्राह्मण पार्टी ने ओर दलित लोगो पर ही ज़ुलाम कर रही है. शर्म करो दलित बजट के चोर केजरीवाल.

2014-15 में बनिया केजरीवाल ने 709.87 करोड़ का फंड आवंटित किया था दलित लोगो के लिए जो की पहले हे 75% कम था.
लेकिन इसमें से सिर्फ 545.96 करोड़ ही खर्च किया गया. इस तरह 163.91 करोड़ लैप्स/बर्बाद हो गया.

केजरीवाल गवर्नमेंट ने 2016-17 के लिए 46,600 करोड़ का बजट पेश किया है. इसमें 20,600 करोड़ प्लान बजट है. जनसंख्या के लिहाज से दिल्ली में अनुसूचित जाति के लिए

3460 करोड़ रुपये का आवंटन होना चाहिए, लेकिन असल में सिर्फ 715.17 करोड़ आवंटित किया गया. जबकि यह पिछले साल के आवंटन के मुकाबले भी 92.15 करोड़ कम है.

दलित लोगो के वोट ले कर सरकार बनाया इस बनिया-ब्राह्मण पार्टी ने ओर दलित लोगो पर ही ज़ुलाम कर रही है.
शर्म करो दलित बजेट के चोर केजरीवाल.

In BJP ruled Rajasthan, Dalit girl Delta Meghwal raped and murdered in an educational institute #JusticeForDeltaMeghwal


Delta was a 17 years old Dalit girl from a village near the Pakistan border in Barmer district of Rajasthan. She was persuading her BSTC (a course afert 10+2, to become a school teacher) from Jain Adarsh teacher training institute for girls in Nokha, Bikaner (Rajasthan).

Her prize winning artwork

She was a brilliant student and an amazing painter, having topped in an Art competition in whole of Rajasthan when she was in 12th standard. One of her artwork was featured in an art magazine published by Rajasthan secretariat in 2006, when she was just 7 years old.

On the morning of March 29, her dead body was found in the water tank of her hostel under suspicious conditions. Police took her body in a municipal garbage carrying vehicle (tractor) without videographing it. According to institution, she committed suicide because they caught her in PT teacher Vijendra Kumar’s room, and they had warned both and asked them to write an apology.
Now the question is, why did the Institution not inform her parents? Why did the Institute not sack the PT teacher and file a complaint against him as she was a minor?

Getting prize from Home Minister, Rajasthan

According to the FIR filed by her parents, there were only 4 girls at the hostel as all the other girls had gone home and had not returned by then. She came back along with her father on the morning of 28th. Later in the evening, at 8 pm, she called her father and said that their Warden Priya Shukla had sent her to the PT Instructor’s room, to be his helper, with the excuse of cleaning the hostel. There she was raped by him. She seemed very scared while narrating the incident, according to her parents. When her parents got all the information of this incident, the Institute took written apology from both her and the PT Instructor with a statement that this happened with mutual consent. While her parents say that this is murder, as the institute neither sacked the PT Instructor nor informed them, being ignorant of the fact that she was a minor. According to them, to downplay the incident, the Institute murdered her as they are very influential people.

Anti-Reservation remarks by Chairman of Motilal Oswal Group. File a complaint under SC/ST Act


Mr. Motilal Oswal, chairman of Motilal Oswal Group made anti-reservation remarks on twitter. Someone please file a case against Mr Motilal Oswal under SC/ST act for this tweet. Let him have a taste his ‘talent’. So called upper castes like him can become chairman of any company because of their caste not because of ‘talent’. Following tweet was posted by Motilal Oswal, chairman of Motilal Oswal Group, and was later deleted by him.

12936525_990239784385463_8479596338097832107_nMr Motilal Oswal, representation is a constitutional right and don’t compare it with begging of brahmins who are living on begging since ages. 

Mr Motilal Oswal has written in his description at Twitter – “proud of our values and culture”, “loves to spread positivity & happiness in a negative &cynical world” and here is the example of all that. Is this the company’s proud culture where SC/ST/OBC communities are defamed? Further he has written in his description, “Hungry for knowledge” and I would suggest him to read the history of your forefathers and the history of representation in India. Also, read some good books written by some good authors not by “chaddiwalas”!

Mr Motilal Oswal for your clarification, the bridge was being built by IVRCL, which is a private company owned by Reddy brothers, means upper castes company and there is no reservation in private sector as you may know very well. So, doesn’t bridge falling show upper castes merit? And this is not the first time this upper castes company IVRCL’s construction has failed, earlier in Jharkhand also their construction had failed. So, how much talent and merit upper caste companies want to show?? Further, Mr Motilal Oswal, whole India saw your talent (of fooling people) also when company was involvement in a series of IPO irregularities in 2003-05.

Earlier, Havells Fans had shown its castiest nature and now Motilal Oswal Group. We should boycott these companies and their products and services. What is the Merit of those upper caste Brahmins who dupe our Banks worth thousands of Crores & then flee the country? Mr Motilal Oswal should be booked under SC/ST act and should be punished for hatred towards Dalits and minority communities.

Update –

Mr Motilal Oswal deleted the tweet and posted the following message. It’s too late for the Motilal Oswal Group to hide its casteist nature and casteist mindset. We must go forward and file case against him so that no one else tries to defame Dalits & other communities availing constitution rights.

motilal

All this shows the casteist mindset of private companies in India. Even if I accept that it was “forwarded sms”, does it mean he didn’t read it before forwarding? He opened twitter and pasted that “forwarded sms” but didn’t read it? Whom you are trying to fool Mr. Motilal Oswal?

How can anyone trust such a chairman of financial company who doesn’t read before forwarding the information? Wonder how Motilal Oswal Group has survived till now, oh am I forgetting “Vyapam Merit” of upper castes? Motilal Oswal Group is an investment management group and such are the chairman who don’t read information before sharing it. I would suggest investors to back out from Motilal Oswal Group or be ready to lose money in the hands of such “Vyapam Meritwalas” upper castes!
