A 39-year-old Right to Information (RTI) activist is fighting for his life in Rajkot city of Gujarat following an acidattack on him, police said Tuesday. Jaysukh Bambhaniya, a tribal from the union territory Diu’s Dangarwadi area, had filed an RTI application in nearby Una municipality of Gujarat some time ago. “Last night, he was on his way home, when a group of people attacked him with weapons and threw acid on him. Jaysukh was lucky since a police van happened to pass that way around the time he was being attackedand the miscreants fled. His condition is critical and he has been shifted to a hospital in Rajkot,” sub-inspector B.H. Jadeja of Una police station said. The police have no clue about the information he had sought through his RTI plea. “In statement to the police, he has alleged that Shamji Solanki, vice president of Una municipality, was responsible for the attack,” Jadeja added. Rights activists in the state have condemned theattack. “We condemn the attacks on RTI activists. The death of Bhopal’s RTI activist Shehla Masood was very painful for us. RTI activists should not fight alone. They should seek help from other activists. Whatever information he/she receives, they should share it with others also,” said Bharatshin Jhala, an RTI activist. An RTI activist was killed outside the Gujarat High Court in Ahmedabad last year after he sought to expose the mining mafia. Bhagu Devani, a Porbandar RTI activist, was also attacked recently. -- Adv Kamayani Bali Mahabal +919820749204 skype-lawyercumactivist * * *The UID project i**s going to do almost exactly the same thing which the predecessors of Hitler did, else how is it that Germany always had the lists of Jewish names even prior to the arrival of the Nazis? The Nazis got these lists with the help of IBM which was in the 'census' business that included racial census that entailed not only count the Jews but also identifying them. At the United States Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC, there is an exhibit of an IBM Hollerith D-11 card sorting machine that was responsible for organising the census of 1933 that first identified the Jews.* * * *http://saynotoaadhaar.blogspot.com/* *http://aadhararticles.blogspot.com/* *http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_162987527061902&ap=1*< http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_162987527061902&ap=1> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "humanrights movement" group.
