Petition: Prevent further loss of Hindu Activists in Tamil Nadu.

From the year 2012, the state of Tamil Nadu is a real nightmare for the activists of the Sangh Parivar family who are associated with various affiliate organizations. Not to forget the history of violence unleashed against BJP and other affiliates in the yesteryears in the state of Tamil Nadu from the bombing of RSS Head Quarters in Chennai to the Bomb Blast in Coimbatore to assassinate LK Advani, then Home Minister of India in 1998.

Although murders were continuously happening in Tamil Nadu since 2012, the larger issue came into attention and limelight only after the murder of Late Shri.Auditor Ramesh, then General Secretary of Tamil Nadu BJP at Salem on 19.07.2013. Tamil Nadu Government had set up a Special Investigation Team after the widespread agitation by common public in light of gruesome murder of Late Shri.Auditor Ramesh.

It is to be highlighted that there was a foil to murder Shri.LK Advani in the year 2011 in Madurai when he was in the nationwide procession of Jan Chetna Yatra. Tamil Nadu Police diligently acted and prevented any untoward incident then. Similarly after the continuous murders of Hindu activists in Tamil Nadu, out of sheer pressure and public demand “Operation Puttur” was jointly launched by the special teams of the Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh Police in the month of October, 2013. The operation helped to nab two Al-Umma operatives (1) Panna Ismail and (2) Bilal Malik. Tamil Nadu Police had claimed that through this operation they prevented a massive plot to kill a prominent leader of Tamil Nadu, presumably a Hindu leader.

In a shocking incident off late, the trend seems to be continuing with another brutal attack murder of a Hindu activist on 18.06.2014. Shri.KP Suresh, Thiruvallur District President of Hindu Munnani was hacked to death on 18.06.2014 around 9.30 PM. Shri.Suresh is a soft spoken swayamsevak of Kanyakumari. An unidentified gang of three suddenly attacked Suresh causing serious injuries to his face neck and body.

None of the murder cases has reached the legal conclusion as on date. The dimension these cases took also raises doubts about the suspicious intentions of Tamil Nadu Police.

For example, this curious timeline of incident can be observed. Dr.Aravind Reddy, Tamil Nadu BJP Medical Wing Head was brutally murdered in Vellore on 23.10.2012. Tamil Nadu Police in a Press Conference claimed this as a real estate murder out of personal rivalry. Four people were arrested by Mr.Dakshinamoorthy, DSP Vellore (then) and Mr.Annadhurai, Inspector (then) who were investigating this particular case.

Panna Ismail & Bilial Malik notorious terrorists were arrested in heavy shootout after a Joint Operation – “Operation Puttur” conducted by Tamil Nadu & Andhra Pradesh Police in the month of October 2013. During investigations these terrorists confessed killing of Dr.Aravind Reddy and even identified the spots where he was murdered. Question is whether Dr.Aravind Reddy’s murder a real estate murder as claimed by Tamil Nadu Police or a political murder as confessed by arrested terrorists? In that case who were those four people who were arrested by TN Police on disguise of real estate conspiracy? Answer is they were hired goondas. After conspiracy was exposed, the entire case was transferred to Tamil Nadu CBCID Police. CBCID Police started fresh investigations. Police Officers Mr.Dakshinamoorthy, DSP Vellore (then) and Mr.Annadhurai, Inspector of Police, Vellore (then) were convicted of filing false cases with an intention to divert the investigations. These two Police Officers were transferred later. Departmental inquiry has been ordered against these two police officers who were in-charge of investigations and hatched false cases. So; the plan and pattern has been to identify BJP and other affiliate functionaries with personal disputes, assassinate them and divert it to personal dispute with the motive to divert the attention and investigation.

We would also like to bring to your notice the list of Murders happened in Tamil Nadu on Hindu Leaders of RSS, BJP, and Hindu Munnai (Hindu Front) between 2012 and 2013.

Ø  First murder of in this consequence was on 04.07.2012 taking away the life of Mr.Pughazendi, State Executive Member, Tamil Nadu BJP.

Ø  Second murder was little less than four months from the first murder which had taken the life of Dr.Aravind Reddy, Medical Wing Head, BJP Tamil Nadu on 23.10.2012.

Ø  This was followed by the murder of Mr.Murugan, Ex-Corporator, Paramakudi, Tamil Nadu on 29.03.2013.

Ø  In less than a week on 21.04.2013 Mr.MR Gandhi, State Executive Member, Tamil Nadu BJP was attacked by an unidentified gang of four members while he was taking his morning walk at Nagercoil.

We demand the honourable Home Minister of India to personally speak to the law enforcement authorities and the CM of Tamil Nadu, to prevent any further loss of lives. The friends, activists and well wishers of Hindu organizations are living in constant fear due to the unabated sequence of gruesome targeted murders and attempted murders.
