Today, it is no longer a news that Nazis are attacking Dalits all over Kerala. It has become a daily routine. A Nazi Malayalam daily, Janmabhoomi, says that, the “Dalit Movement is a movement of Haji Mastan to convert the Untouchables to Islam”. Kesari, their Malayalam monthly, is also printing all sorts of bluffs but our people are not bothered.
On March 3, 1990, the Hindus Nazis attacked Ambujakshan, a Dalit Panther leader, at Palolipalam, in Vadakara (DV April, 1990) by about 50 Nazi workers with deadly weapons. To this day nobody was arrested but the police prohibited the mike permission to Dalit Panthers all over Kerala making us suspect that the Marxist govt. is also pro-Nazi. On the Dec.25 (Christmas) night, at Kadiyangad, Perambra, Kozhikode dt., Ramesh Nanminda, the Indian Dalit Students Federation leader, was attacked by 25 Nazis with deadly weapons like iron pipe and soda bottles etc. while addressing a meeting on Babri Masjid, Davadasi system etc. He argued that Sabarimala temple, Kodungalloor temple, Tirupati temple etc. were all Buddha Viharas., forcibly converted into Hindu temples by the Nazis. This shocking truth provoked the Nazis. All of a sudden Nazis jumped shouting “Don’t say anything about our temples”. He was mercilessly beaten up after switching off the lights. Dalits couldn’t understand anything as it was pitch dark. Yet they defended the victim. Fortunately, Muslims also came with sticks to fight the Nazis and protect the Dalits. Thus, the poor Nanminda narrowly escaped death. Eight IDF workers including Ramesh are now in hospital.
Gandhi-killers: In Nov. last, while Ramesh was addressing a poor Muslims gathering, he was attacked by the same Nazis. In the last few months Ramesh used to address many meetings in Kozhikode and Wyanad districts especially from Muslim platforms about the Babri Masjid, Mandal Commission Report which has united the Dalits and Muslims. Now he is editing a Malayalam monthly, Janasabdham, which reproduces article from the Dalit Voice. This further irritated the Nazis. They cannot counter this monthly. To add insult to Nazi injury, IDF had a three-day jeep jatha (Dec.8 to 10) in Kozhikode. Speaking at all these meetings Ramesh asserted that M.K. Gandhi is not the father of our nation. Our leader and Father of our Nation is Dr. Ambedkar. At this time also the Gandhi-killers tried to stop the jeep jatha. But they couldn’t because Muslims were in full strength. At last, they decided to finish this young intellect. He is studying | BA at the Guruvayurappan College, Kozhikode, The Dalits and backward castes of Kerala are having a doubt. The Nazis, the killers of Gandhi and destroyers of Indian unity, say that Dalits are Hindus. If we are Hindus, why Hindus only are attacking us? We are publishing small articles of Dr. Ambedkar which impressed all Dalits. Kanshi Ram also came with his Bharata Yatra. Through this Dalits identified their enemy. Once before the Marxists stoned the IDF workers. Besides, they have organized separate SC/ST house meetings saying that it is a cattiest organization. As the Nazi attacks Increased, it helped Dalit-Muslim unity which is growing.
