Jisha ,You were probably someone like Rohith Vemula, who dreamed of stars and skies.

Dear Jisha, I never knew you, nor did you know me. You were probably a “usual” student, pursuing your studies, dreaming of a better future for yourself and your country. You were probably someone like Rohith Vemula, who dreamed of stars and skies. I learnt that you were a Law student, but I regret to tell you that the Law of this country fails us miserably.

Reremembering Babsaheb Dr.B.R.Ambedkar. Note from ASA HCU.

Before demise, Rohith Vemula, who was led to suicide due Political Victimization of BJP and RSS, reiterated “Dalit Organizations and Independent Dalit Activists must make a resolution to resist these RSS programs (pogroms) with tooth and nail fights. It is a waste of time to watch at the left side for support. Dalits should take RSS personally and fight back. Or else, we will be doomed to a future, very risky for our coming generations”. Ironically, the proponents of Hindu Raj had started appropriating Ambedkar on his 125th Birth Anniversary. As Babasaheb said, go back to villages and your localities, and emancipate the masses, failing which depressed classes will be doomed.

Or if you believe that Apparao is an oppressor then there is no point in suggesting to us or framing ASA – JAC response as 'violence'.
