Dear members
This is my opinion that we have to set up a strong social group who will see the government deeds because this time we haven't seen any opposition and government will take intolerable decisionsthas it

My dear Urvashi ji,
Congratulations for organizing the Whistleblower event. I would participate from 11 AM to 12.15 PM; I regret I cannot stay longer.
I am keen to know the names and principal deeds of Whistleblower Martyrs. It would be important if it can be shown that danger to their lives had been officially communicated to some Authority. The case of Sateyndra Dubey is famous; he had specifically asked the Government not to disclose his name in any way! If possible, let me know other instances.
Best Wishes,
KN

Dear friends,
YAISHWARYAJ Seva Sansthan Lucknow invites you to the capital city of
Uttar Pradesh on 30-07-14 to mark First "National Whistleblower Day"
in India.
I, on behalf of YAISHWARYAJ, am requesting you to come to Lucknow to
Pay Homage to those who sacrificed their lives for society and foster
courage in those who are still fighting against all odds.
Date : 30-07-2014
Time : 11 AM onwards
Place : Gandhi Statue Compound, Main Hazratganj Crossing, Near G.P.O.
Lucknow-226001, Uttar Pradesh, India
Mobile Contacts : 08081898081 & 09455553838
Email contact : rtimahilamanchup@gmail.com
Event details :
1- 11 AM - Introductory Speech & start of Signature Campaign
2- 11:58 AM to 12:00 Noon - Two minute quiscent prayer for solace of
deceased RTI activists' & whistleblowers' families
3- 12:01 PM – Blow the whistle program
4- 12:15 PM – Symbolic demonstration by 'Monkeys and Juggler' show
5- 03:00 PM – Concluding speech
On the same day,we are organizing a symbolic demonstration using
'monkeys and Juggler' against misrule of administrative and Police
officers of Uttar Pradesh who are behaving like those captive monkeys
and are acting only to the words of their Political masters or the
ones who can manage them with easy-money.
We shall honor RTI martyrs and whistle-blowers on this day. To us, a
whistleblower is the one who informs the public or the concerned
authorities of suspected illegal activities. These illegal activities
could range from violation of simple law to fraud and corruption.
Here, We are using the term 'whistleblower' in a broader perspective
and don't intend to limit it to the public servants or employees only.
Whosoever blows a whistle against the unlawful, unethical, unsocial
acts for the larger interest of the society , is a whistleblower to
us.
Through this mail, I am requesting you all to invite the family
members of all those whistleblowers who have sacrificed their lives
for various causes of the society including RTI and also the families
of all those who are faced with threats, intimidations or being
harassed who are known to you.
In India there have been innumerable instances of whistle blowers
being killed. So it's hardly a surprise that such few people come
forward with instances of wrong doing. Some 150 whistle blowers were
have been harassed or jailed while 20 have been killed. What's
important to note is that whistle blowers exposing government
corruption face a particularly uphill task in India. Their cases often
wind slowly up the judicial chain and are only resolved decades later.
Memories of Manjunath Shanmugamand Satyendranath Dubey, Satish
Shetty,etc. and status of their cases are known to all of us so we
shall raise a demand of fast track courts for cases concerning the
whistleblowers to ensure speedy disposal of claims.
We shall get a demand letter signed by participants of the event and
send it to the Government of India through Prime Minister of India to
formally declare July 30 as the "NATIONAL WHISTLE-BLOWER DAY" in
India.
Please try your level best to be a part of the event. If due to some
practical constraints, you are not able to come to Lucknow on
30-07-14, please support our cause and organize 'Blow-the-Whistle'
Program at 12:00 Noon in broad daylight at some prominent place of
your city to spread the idea of 'whistle-blowing' and press with
Government of India for a formal declaration of 'NATIONAL
WHISTLE-BLOWER DAY'. Please don't forget to send a memorandum to PM of
India as well.
So,This 30th July, either be with us in Lucknow or wherever you are,
just blow- the- whistle at 12:00 Noon in broad daylight at some
prominent place of your city to help strengthen democratic setup in
India.
Please circulate this mail to your contacts.
