'क्षमाशील हो रिपु-समक्ष
तुम हुए विनीत जितना ही,
दुष्ट कौरवों ने तुमको
कायर समझा उतना ही।
सच पूछो, तो शर में ही
बसती है दीप्ति विनय की,
सन्धि-वचन संपूज्य उसी का जिसमें शक्ति विजय की।'
His name was Rajan.
He was a final year engineering student at the Regional Engineering College in Calicut, Kerala. His father, T V Eachara Varier, was a Hindi professor at the Government Arts and Science College in the same city.
On the morning of March 1 1976 the police came to the college campus and took Rajan away.
India was under Emergency. Civil liberties were suspended. Courts had effectively turned away.
His father found out the next day from the college principal.
He went to every police station in the district. No one admitted to having his son.
He met the Home Minister of Kerala, K Karunakaran, directly.
He sent petitions to the Home Secretary of the Government of Kerala three times. Not a single reply or acknowledgement came.
He wrote to the President of India and the Home Minister of the central government, with copies to every Member of Parliament from Kerala.
Nothing.
What Eachara Varier did not know at the time was that his son had been taken to an illegal police interrogation camp at Kakkayam.
He was tortured.
A practice called uruttal was used, where a heavy wooden log is rolled over the body of the victim.
Rajan died from his injuries. His body was disposed of by the police and was never found.
When the Emergency ended in 1977 Eachara Varier filed a habeas corpus petition in the Kerala High Court.
It was the first such petition filed in Kerala after the Emergency.
He did it without legal training, without political backing, without money.
He had spent everything searching for his son.
The court case slowly unravelled the truth.
It forced K Karunakaran to resign as Chief Minister of Kerala in 1978 when the adverse judgment came.
Rajan’s mother became mentally unstable from the grief. She died in 2000 still not knowing where her son was.
Eachara Varier wrote his memoir, Memories of a Father, which won the Kerala Sahitya Akademi Award in 2004.
In its final lines he wrote, “I don’t close the door. Let the rain lash inside and drench me. Let at least my invisible son know that his father never shut the door.”
He died on April 13 2006. He never found his son’s body.
Rajan was picked up from his college campus on a March morning in 1976. He was never seen again.

एक बड़ी विदेशी कंस्ट्रक्शन कम्पनी को अपने देश के पहाडी़ इलाकों में सड़क बनाने का ठेका मिल गया
उन्होंने नक्शे बनाने शुरू कर दिये सर्वे के दौरान एक देशी ठेकेदार को यह सब करते देख अजीब लगा तो विदेशी से पूछा आप लोगो को पहाड़ी इलाकों में सड़क का नक्शा बनाने की क्या जरूरत है ?
देशी ठेकेदार बोला हम तो सब गधे पर चूने की बोरी लाद कर उसमें सुराख़ कर देते हैं और उसे पहाड़ पर छोड़ देते हैं, गधा ऊपर जिस रास्ते से जाता है वहाँ चूने के निशान देख कर हम समझ जाते यह बेहतर रास्ता है फिर हम वहीं सड़क बनाना शुरू कर देते हैं.
वह विदेशी बहुत परेशान हुआ उसने पुछा आपके यहाँ सड़क का नक्शा सिविल इन्जीनियर नहीं बनाते हैं ?
देशी ठेकेदार हंस कर बोला जहाँ गधे नहीं मिलते वहाँ इन��जीनियर ही बनाते हैं.😂😂
Why Reservation is the worst way of Social Justice for SC/ST/OBC
Savita Meena got 0/300 marks in Physics but still Rajasthan govt hired her for the post of Asst Professor Physics because Rajasthan govt wanted to do social justice with her
Now suppose in her teaching career (30 years) she teaches physics to 3000 students. We all know she won't be able to explain any concept of physics to her students and out of those 3000 students, most of them would be SC/ST/OBC who can't afford private schools
So just to do Social Justice with 1 person
Govt of Rajasthan did Social Injustice with 3000 other students (Most of them are SC/ST/OBC)
And it can be generalised across India in all reserved professions
Only one group is benefitted from reservation and that is these dishonest political leaders
That's why I say, Reservation is the worst form to do Social Justice
In place of reservation, SC/ST/OBC must demand free quality education and free books
