Can Maoist terrorists be equated with Gandhi?
SEVEN cops killed, two injured in a landmine blast triggered by Maoists in Chamorshi tehsil of Gadchiroli district.
The news came on Sunday morning. More details like names of the deceased jawans, shifting of two injured cops to Nagpur. intensification of combing operation by Gadchiroli Police etc. emerged by the evening. However, one thing was missing sorely condemnation of the killing of these seven individuals.
The so-called civil society and intellectuals and scholars who talk of 'human rights of hardcore Maoist/Naxal cadres, whenever the cops arrest or kill or injure them in encounters, went mute when 'human beings' serving in the capacity of policemen were killed in landmine blast by the outlaws. These

The so-called civil society and intellectuals and scholars who talk of 'human rights of hardcore Maoist/Naxal cadres, whenever the cops arrest or kill or injure them in encounters, went mute when 'human beings' serving in the capacity of policemen were killed in landmine blast by the outlaws. These
inellectuals. who lake pride in devising the deceptive expressions like 'Gandhiaas with guns, went mute when the news of these killings was all over.It is not that the English-speaking elitist scholars and writers had decided to shun the 'ideology of convenience' of raising the pitch for protection of human rights. Just a couple Of days ago. when Gadchiroli Police arrested G N Saibaba, a Professor in Delhi University, and brought him to Gadchiroli to produce him before Aheri Court, many individuals in the 'civil society circuit' started flooding social media with messages condemning his arrest. They also cried and sobbed and pleaded that Saibaba was wheelchair-bound. They went a step further and passed the judgement that he was not associated with any of the banned organisation like'CPI (Maoist). They talked of his human rights, though the Gadchiroli Police claimed to have seized 'clinching evidence' of his association with Maoist terrorists, during the raid conducted at his place in AuguM 2013.

As if to protest Saibaba's arrest. Maoists triggered a landmine blast in Gadchiroli district on Sunday and killed seven policemen. But. the same bunch of activists who were outraged at Saibaba's arrest could not find time to flood the same social media with condemnation of Maoists' actions. But then, lot many of these elitists are ignorant about the nefarious designs of the Maoists. Their minds are clouded by intellectuals who describe the Maoists as 'Gandhians with guns'. In fact, the recipient of prestigious Man Booker Prize for her literary genius Arundhati Roy, went on to write about Maoists, "This army
