&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;National convention brings to light cases of police atrocity unknown to many&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
On July 6 this year a large number of men and a few minor boys were arrested and put behind bars in Moradabad district of Uttar Pradesh after their protest against alleged disrespect to the Holy Quran by the local police turned violent. However, Subhashini Ali, vice-president of the All India Democratic Women&#039;s Association, said on Wednesday that leave alone action against the persons involved, even people within the State do not know of the incident.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Speaking at a convention against communal conflict here at the Constitution Club, Ms. Ali used the Moradabad incident to highlight the cases of police atrocities against minorities in the country. &amp;ldquo;Four minors were shot at, one of them succumbed to the injury on October 19&amp;hellip;.and despite proof, the Government has not done anything to secure the release of the minors who have neither been put in juvenile detention nor are being tried in juvenile courts,&amp;rdquo; she said.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Victims of police atrocity from Bharatpur in Rajasthan, Arria in Bihar and Moradabad gave a chilling account of how they were prosecuted and their kin killed and yet no action was taken against those responsible. Families recounted how they lost young children, earning hands and even an unborn child in one case and how they continue to struggle for justice, which so far seems elusive.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
AIDWA members alleged that in recent months communal conflict and violence in several States has shown a surge and in each incident, unfortunately, members of the minority community have had to bear the brunt of the violence and destruction.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;From Forbesganj and Gopalganj in Bihar, Bharatpur in Rajasthan, Rudrapur in Uttarakhand to Moradabad in UP, it was a tale of police and administrative one-sided action; firing by police, followed by attack on the minority community, followed by harassment and arrest of the innocent,&amp;rdquo; AIDWA office-bearers pointed out.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Citing examples of inaction against the perpetrators of violence, AIDWA referred to the cases of Mustafa, who succumbed to police firing in Forbesganj, Zakir of Gopalganj who was shot at and killed by the police in the mosque and of Moradabad where Kamil is in custody for no reason.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Brinda Karat, CPI(M) Polit Bureau member and AIDWA patron, used the Gujarat example to pin the government for failing to protect the witnesses. She accused the Narendra Modi government of bringing in &amp;ldquo;fascist power&amp;rdquo; in the State. She said witnesses are being intimidated and killed.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;In 2006, the Law Commission prepared a report, about the draft Bill on witness protection. It has two parts, witness identity protection and witness protection; till date the UPA Government has not been able to move it,&amp;rdquo; she said.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Ms. Karat also accused the Centre of maintaining a tacit silence and dilly-dallying over framing of a concrete witness protection act. Referring to suspended IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt, who implicated Narendra Modi in the 2002 riots, Ms. Karat claimed people in Gujarat lived in an environment of fear as &amp;ldquo;those who dared to question were silenced and persecuted.&amp;rdquo;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Shweta Bhatt, wife of suspended IPS officer Sanjeev Bhatt who was also present at the occasion and was felicitated by AIDWA, expressed solidarity with the victims and urged them to continue fighting.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Problems do not end by talking about them, we need to fight them. Everyone has strength inside them and like I have been fighting, everyone should fight too,&amp;rdquo; she told the victims.
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;National convention brings to light cases of police atrocity unknown to many&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
On July 6 this year a large number of men and a few minor boys were arrested and put behind bars in Moradabad district of Uttar Pradesh after their protest against alleged disrespect to the Holy Quran by the local police turned violent. However, Subhashini Ali, vice-president of the All India Democratic Women&#039;s Association, said on Wednesday that leave alone action against the persons involved, even people within the State do not know of the incident.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Speaking at a convention against communal conflict here at the Constitution Club, Ms. Ali used the Moradabad incident to highlight the cases of police atrocities against minorities in the country. &amp;ldquo;Four minors were shot at, one of them succumbed to the injury on October 19&amp;hellip;.and despite proof, the Government has not done anything to secure the release of the minors who have neither been put in juvenile detention nor are being tried in juvenile courts,&amp;rdquo; she said.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Victims of police atrocity from Bharatpur in Rajasthan, Arria in Bihar and Moradabad gave a chilling account of how they were prosecuted and their kin killed and yet no action was taken against those responsible. Families recounted how they lost young children, earning hands and even an unborn child in one case and how they continue to struggle for justice, which so far seems elusive.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
AIDWA members alleged that in recent months communal conflict and violence in several States has shown a surge and in each incident, unfortunately, members of the minority community have had to bear the brunt of the violence and destruction.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;From Forbesganj and Gopalganj in Bihar, Bharatpur in Rajasthan, Rudrapur in Uttarakhand to Moradabad in UP, it was a tale of police and administrative one-sided action; firing by police, followed by attack on the minority community, followed by harassment and arrest of the innocent,&amp;rdquo; AIDWA office-bearers pointed out.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Citing examples of inaction against the perpetrators of violence, AIDWA referred to the cases of Mustafa, who succumbed to police firing in Forbesganj, Zakir of Gopalganj who was shot at and killed by the police in the mosque and of Moradabad where Kamil is in custody for no reason.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Brinda Karat, CPI(M) Polit Bureau member and AIDWA patron, used the Gujarat example to pin the government for failing to protect the witnesses. She accused the Narendra Modi government of bringing in &amp;ldquo;fascist power&amp;rdquo; in the State. She said witnesses are being intimidated and killed.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;In 2006, the Law Commission prepared a report, about the draft Bill on witness protection. It has two parts, witness identity protection and witness protection; till date the UPA Government has not been able to move it,&amp;rdquo; she said.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Ms. Karat also accused the Centre of maintaining a tacit silence and dilly-dallying over framing of a concrete witness protection act. Referring to suspended IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt, who implicated Narendra Modi in the 2002 riots, Ms. Karat claimed people in Gujarat lived in an environment of fear as &amp;ldquo;those who dared to question were silenced and persecuted.&amp;rdquo;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Shweta Bhatt, wife of suspended IPS officer Sanjeev Bhatt who was also present at the occasion and was felicitated by AIDWA, expressed solidarity with the victims and urged them to continue fighting.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Problems do not end by talking about them, we need to fight them. Everyone has strength inside them and like I have been fighting, everyone should fight too,&amp;rdquo; she told the victims.
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;em&gt;National convention brings to light cases of police atrocity unknown to many&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
On July 6 this year a large number of men and a few minor boys were arrested and put behind bars in Moradabad district of Uttar Pradesh after their protest against alleged disrespect to the Holy Quran by the local police turned violent. However, Subhashini Ali, vice-president of the All India Democratic Women&#039;s Association, said on Wednesday that leave alone action against the persons involved, even people within the State do not know of the incident.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Speaking at a convention against communal conflict here at the Constitution Club, Ms. Ali used the Moradabad incident to highlight the cases of police atrocities against minorities in the country. &amp;ldquo;Four minors were shot at, one of them succumbed to the injury on October 19&amp;hellip;.and despite proof, the Government has not done anything to secure the release of the minors who have neither been put in juvenile detention nor are being tried in juvenile courts,&amp;rdquo; she said.

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Victims of police atrocity from Bharatpur in Rajasthan, Arria in Bihar and Moradabad gave a chilling account of how they were prosecuted and their kin killed and yet no action was taken against those responsible. Families recounted how they lost young children, earning hands and even an unborn child in one case and how they continue to struggle for justice, which so far seems elusive.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
AIDWA members alleged that in recent months communal conflict and violence in several States has shown a surge and in each incident, unfortunately, members of the minority community have had to bear the brunt of the violence and destruction.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;National convention brings to light cases of police atrocity unknown to many&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
On July 6 this year a large number of men and a few minor boys were arrested and put behind bars in Moradabad district of Uttar Pradesh after their protest against alleged disrespect to the Holy Quran by the local police turned violent. However, Subhashini Ali, vice-president of the All India Democratic Women&#039;s Association, said on Wednesday that leave alone action against the persons involved, even people within the State do not know of the incident.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Speaking at a convention against communal conflict here at the Constitution Club, Ms. Ali used the Moradabad incident to highlight the cases of police atrocities against minorities in the country. &amp;ldquo;Four minors were shot at, one of them succumbed to the injury on October 19&amp;hellip;.and despite proof, the Government has not done anything to secure the release of the minors who have neither been put in juvenile detention nor are being tried in juvenile courts,&amp;rdquo; she said.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Victims of police atrocity from Bharatpur in Rajasthan, Arria in Bihar and Moradabad gave a chilling account of how they were prosecuted and their kin killed and yet no action was taken against those responsible. Families recounted how they lost young children, earning hands and even an unborn child in one case and how they continue to struggle for justice, which so far seems elusive.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
AIDWA members alleged that in recent months communal conflict and violence in several States has shown a surge and in each incident, unfortunately, members of the minority community have had to bear the brunt of the violence and destruction.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;From Forbesganj and Gopalganj in Bihar, Bharatpur in Rajasthan, Rudrapur in Uttarakhand to Moradabad in UP, it was a tale of police and administrative one-sided action; firing by police, followed by attack on the minority community, followed by harassment and arrest of the innocent,&amp;rdquo; AIDWA office-bearers pointed out.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Citing examples of inaction against the perpetrators of violence, AIDWA referred to the cases of Mustafa, who succumbed to police firing in Forbesganj, Zakir of Gopalganj who was shot at and killed by the police in the mosque and of Moradabad where Kamil is in custody for no reason.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Brinda Karat, CPI(M) Polit Bureau member and AIDWA patron, used the Gujarat example to pin the government for failing to protect the witnesses. She accused the Narendra Modi government of bringing in &amp;ldquo;fascist power&amp;rdquo; in the State. She said witnesses are being intimidated and killed.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;In 2006, the Law Commission prepared a report, about the draft Bill on witness protection. It has two parts, witness identity protection and witness protection; till date the UPA Government has not been able to move it,&amp;rdquo; she said.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Ms. Karat also accused the Centre of maintaining a tacit silence and dilly-dallying over framing of a concrete witness protection act. Referring to suspended IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt, who implicated Narendra Modi in the 2002 riots, Ms. Karat claimed people in Gujarat lived in an environment of fear as &amp;ldquo;those who dared to question were silenced and persecuted.&amp;rdquo;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Shweta Bhatt, wife of suspended IPS officer Sanjeev Bhatt who was also present at the occasion and was felicitated by AIDWA, expressed solidarity with the victims and urged them to continue fighting.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Problems do not end by talking about them, we need to fight them. Everyone has strength inside them and like I have been fighting, everyone should fight too,&amp;rdquo; she told the victims.
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;em&gt;National convention brings to light cases of police atrocity unknown to many&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
On July 6 this year a large number of men and a few minor boys were arrested and put behind bars in Moradabad district of Uttar Pradesh after their protest against alleged disrespect to the Holy Quran by the local police turned violent. However, Subhashini Ali, vice-president of the All India Democratic Women&#039;s Association, said on Wednesday that leave alone action against the persons involved, even people within the State do not know of the incident.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Speaking at a convention against communal conflict here at the Constitution Club, Ms. Ali used the Moradabad incident to highlight the cases of police atrocities against minorities in the country. &amp;ldquo;Four minors were shot at, one of them succumbed to the injury on October 19&amp;hellip;.and despite proof, the Government has not done anything to secure the release of the minors who have neither been put in juvenile detention nor are being tried in juvenile courts,&amp;rdquo; she said.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Victims of police atrocity from Bharatpur in Rajasthan, Arria in Bihar and Moradabad gave a chilling account of how they were prosecuted and their kin killed and yet no action was taken against those responsible. Families recounted how they lost young children, earning hands and even an unborn child in one case and how they continue to struggle for justice, which so far seems elusive.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
AIDWA members alleged that in recent months communal conflict and violence in several States has shown a surge and in each incident, unfortunately, members of the minority community have had to bear the brunt of the violence and destruction.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;From Forbesganj and Gopalganj in Bihar, Bharatpur in Rajasthan, Rudrapur in Uttarakhand to Moradabad in UP, it was a tale of police and administrative one-sided action; firing by police, followed by attack on the minority community, followed by harassment and arrest of the innocent,&amp;rdquo; AIDWA office-bearers pointed out.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Citing examples of inaction against the perpetrators of violence, AIDWA referred to the cases of Mustafa, who succumbed to police firing in Forbesganj, Zakir of Gopalganj who was shot at and killed by the police in the mosque and of Moradabad where Kamil is in custody for no reason.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Brinda Karat, CPI(M) Polit Bureau member and AIDWA patron, used the Gujarat example to pin the government for failing to protect the witnesses. She accused the Narendra Modi government of bringing in &amp;ldquo;fascist power&amp;rdquo; in the State. She said witnesses are being intimidated and killed.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;In 2006, the Law Commission prepared a report, about the draft Bill on witness protection. It has two parts, witness identity protection and witness protection; till date the UPA Government has not been able to move it,&amp;rdquo; she said.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Ms. Karat also accused the Centre of maintaining a tacit silence and dilly-dallying over framing of a concrete witness protection act. Referring to suspended IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt, who implicated Narendra Modi in the 2002 riots, Ms. Karat claimed people in Gujarat lived in an environment of fear as &amp;ldquo;those who dared to question were silenced and persecuted.&amp;rdquo;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Shweta Bhatt, wife of suspended IPS officer Sanjeev Bhatt who was also present at the occasion and was felicitated by AIDWA, expressed solidarity with the victims and urged them to continue fighting.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Problems do not end by talking about them, we need to fight them. Everyone has strength inside them and like I have been fighting, everyone should fight too,&amp;rdquo; she told the victims.
&lt;/div&gt;

‘Communal conflict in India has shown a surge in recent months'

-The Hindu   National convention brings to light cases of police atrocity unknown to many   On July 6 this year a large number of men and a few minor boys were arrested and put behind bars in Moradabad district of Uttar Pradesh after their protest against alleged disrespect to the Holy Quran by the local police turned violent. However, Subhashini Ali, vice-president of the All India Democratic Women's Association, said on Wednesday that leave alone action against the persons involved, even people within the State do not know of the incident. Speaking at a convention against communal conflict here at the Constitution Club, Ms. Ali used the Moradabad incident to highlight the cases of police atrocities against minorities in the country. “Four minors were shot at, one of them succumbed to the injury on October 19….and despite proof, the Government has not done anything to secure the release of the minors who have neither been put in juvenile detention nor are being tried in juvenile courts,” she said. Victims of police atrocity from Bharatpur in Rajasthan, Arria in Bihar and Moradabad gave a chilling account of how they were prosecuted and their kin killed and yet no action was taken against those responsible. Families recounted how they lost young children, earning hands and even an unborn child in one case and how they continue to struggle for justice, which so far seems elusive. AIDWA members alleged that in recent months communal conflict and violence in several States has shown a surge and in each incident, unfortunately, members of the minority community have had to bear the brunt of the violence and destruction. “From Forbesganj and Gopalganj in Bihar, Bharatpur in Rajasthan, Rudrapur in Uttarakhand to Moradabad in UP, it was a tale of police and administrative one-sided action; firing by police, followed by attack on the minority community, followed by harassment and arrest of the innocent,” AIDWA office-bearers pointed out. Citing examples of inaction against the perpetrators of violence, AIDWA referred to the cases of Mustafa, who succumbed to police firing in Forbesganj, Zakir of Gopalganj who was shot at and killed by the police in the mosque and of Moradabad where Kamil is in custody for no reason. Brinda Karat, CPI(M) Polit Bureau member and AIDWA patron, used the Gujarat example to pin the government for failing to protect the witnesses. She accused the Narendra Modi government of bringing in “fascist power” in the State. She said witnesses are being intimidated and killed. “In 2006, the Law Commission prepared a report, about the draft Bill on witness protection. It has two parts, witness identity protection and witness protection; till date the UPA Government has not been able to move it,” she said. Ms. Karat also accused the Centre of maintaining a tacit silence and dilly-dallying over framing of a concrete witness protection act. Referring to suspended IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt, who implicated Narendra Modi in the 2002 riots, Ms. Karat claimed people in Gujarat lived in an environment of fear as “those who dared to question were silenced and persecuted.” Shweta Bhatt, wife of suspended IPS officer Sanjeev Bhatt who was also present at the occasion and was felicitated by AIDWA, expressed solidarity with the victims and urged them to continue fighting. “Problems do not end by talking about them, we need to fight them. Everyone has strength inside them and like I have been fighting, everyone should fight too,” she told the victims.
