Attack on Prof Kancha Ilaiah -A protest letter

Cross-Posted from Insight Blog

Dear All,

This disturbing news article reports the blatant violation of human
rights of Prof Kancha Ilaiah. He was mobbed in his home, and made to
repeat slogans that were not his beliefs and his home was vandalized.
This deeply humiliating experience of a private citizen is a concern
to all of us and we protest this undemocratic act.

Prof Kancha Ilaiah is a symbol of articulation for the dalitbahujan.
His writings and consistent engagement with the media on issues
concerning the dalitbahujan are a source of inspiration and hope for
the otherwise silenced people. We, the undersigned protest and demand
action against the mobbing students and instigators behind this
violation of human rights of Prof Kancha Ilaiah and his family.
