Central government’s decision to handover the Elgar case to NIA raises concerns: Balasaheb Thorat

This is the Centres plan to label people associated with progressive, Dalit, pro-Ambedkar movement as Naxals.

The manner in which the Central government handed over the Elgar Parishad case to the NIA raises concerns. From the manner in which the case was transferred it is clear that it is the attempt of the Central government to label people associated with progressive, Dalit and pro-Ambedkar movements as Naxals, said Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee president and Revenue Minister Balasaheb Thorat.

Speaking on the Elgar probe, Thorat said that this was the platform for intellectuals, liberals and poets. It is wrong to take action against them only because they have spoken against the government.

This is an attempt to the gag the progressive, and pro- Ambedkar voices.

We are not supporting anyone who has behaved differently or acted with any other intentions. But, the timing in which the case has been handed over to the NIA makes it even more suspicious.

Before this, Dabholkar, Pansare, Kalburgi were killed to stop their progressive thoughts. And now the BJP government in the Centre is trying to label the intellectuals with pro-Ambedkar and Dalit thoughts as Naxals. There is scope for suspicion in whole episode and concerns are being raised on it from across the country, said MPCC President.
