The days of dictatorial rule that haunted Germany have long started in India. Fascist administration has launched attack on journalists, poets, writers and lawyers etc. They have not killed anyone, they have not amassed wealth or assault anyone for eating beef, or they never garlanded the lynch mob members. These people took up the cause of women, minorities, and the exploited people including tribals and have been fighting for their causes. This is the reason poet Varavara Rao, journalist Gautam Navlakha, lawyer Sudha Bharadwaj, Arun Ferira, Vernon Gonsalves and writer Anand Teltumbde have been arrested. They are accused of plotting for PM Modi’s murder. No sooner did Karnataka SIT unravel the murders and the common thread that joins the killings of Dabholkar, Pansare, Gauri Lankesh, the union has levelled allegations against the activists in a totally unexpected development.
