Mass Rally and Demonstration in front of office of
Collector, Kendrapara demanding arrest of culprits involved in brutal attack to
a 10 year old boy of RTI Activist
On behalf of Odisha Soochana Adhikar Abhijan ( a State-level Forum of RTI
Activists of Odisha) , Mass Rally and Demonstration will be organized on 8.6.16 in front of office of Collector, Kendrapara
demanding arrest of culprits involved in brutal attack to a 10 year old boy of
RTI Activist of Marshaghai Block. The Rally will start from Tinimuhani ( Ram
Mandir) at 10 am proceeding to the
office of Collector, Kendrapara. The
Demonstration is being organized in protest against the
callousness of the administration
and the Marshaghai Police to enquire
into the matter. It has come to the public notice that the police is trying hard to cover up the case under political influence of BJD Party and protecting the culprits. Though
one month has passed, the police has not been able to detect the culprits
and is engaged in harassing the
parents.
Back
ground of the case
On 10.5.16, Suvam Sarathi Rout, a ten year
old boy, s/o- Kalandi Rout, Vill- Bhagaban Pur, Post- Marshaghai of Kendrapara
district was physically attacked by miscreants in the night around 1 o’clock,
when he was asleep. The miscreants entered Kalandi’s house with target to
murder the boy. They attacked the boy with weapons causing heavy head injuries.
When the boy cried, the miscreants ran away in dark night. The parents could
not identify anybody. The boy lost the sense due to heavy bleeding. Immediately, the parents brought the
boy to Cuttack and got him admitted in Star Hospital. After week-long treatment
with expenditure of Rs. 2 lakh and finding no improvement in the condition of
the patients, the parents
ensured her admission in S.C.B. Medical, Cuttack. Suvam is in Central I.C.U.
There is huge corruption, irregularities
and misappropriation of fund in every development work and in each office of
the State Govt. It has become very common practice under able leadership
of Nabin Patnaik, Chief Minister, Odisha. The leaders of Ruling party and
officials are openly indulged in corruption and amassing huge property worth
crores of rupees. It is see that the common people could not tolerate magnitude
of corruption and have started reacting against the corruption and using RTI to
expose it. Sri Kalandi Nayak , a poor villager and daily wage labourer of
Marshaghai Block of Kendrapara district found misappropriation of
around Rs. 15 lakh fund in repair of Udayabata Upper Primary School and
mismanagement of fund for Mid-Day-Meal by the Head Master of the
School, Block Education Officer and District Education Officer. He filed
RTI application to the PIO, office of Block Education Officer,
Marshaghai seeking information about details of fund sanctioned,
utilised along with copy of bill and vouchures. The whole
administration got disturbed having seen the application and
tried to convince him to withdraw the application. When Sri Kalandi
remained determined to pursue the application and also
filed first appeal petition after denial of information by the PIO, he
received a lot of threats call of murder from different
people. He has also got the information that a
coterie of powerful people including Chairman, Marshaghai Block and
Officials and Contractors are getting organised to attack him at
anytime. The attack on his son Suvam in mid-night is the result of the
conspiracy hatched by the said coterie. While taking steps to ensure admission
of his severely injured child in hospital, he filed FIR in
Marshaghai police station ( IIC Mobile No- 9437523699) on 12.5.16. Though
more than 10 days passed, the Inspector-In-Charge has not taken any steps
to nab the culprits.
We make appeal all sensible people, Activists to join in the demonstration to give justice to a 10 year old boy.
