TRIBAL VOTERS HUMAN RIGHTS UNCARED




Ever since 60 years, the tribal India is participating in the democratic way of mistiming the Government. They have submitted their way of ruling or administrating in favour of the Government thinking that something more and better days they shall see in the form of education and economic development specially. Much to their dismay, they have been consistently or regularly being let down in their hopes and expectations from the Government. So much so that the situation has been growing from bad to worse, and now it is moving towards total deprivation and desolation. Where it shall end, they do not know but certainly no hope for the future is filling in their hearts and minds day by day.

In this case one can clearly notice in the Lok Sabha contituency of Ratlam-Jhabua(MP), where two tribal veteran leaders Kantilal Bhuriya(Congress) and Dileepsingh Bhuriya(BJP) are contesting the General election of April-May 2009. The voters who are mostly Bhils in this constituency besides some educated ones who are non tribals, from the towns etc, are not much enthusiastic to vote. In spite of having all the assurances from the Centre and state Governments, billions of rupees have been poured in this region for the tribal development, the sustainable development is seen not even 20% except on the papers. The Bhuriya leaders on the contrary have enhanced themselves and not fulfilled the hopes and expectations of the indigenous populations. Besides this was a major tribal zone in the country, with poverty stricken tribal population with international focus for development, where the sympathy of the Centre was always there, but all through the years both the Bhuriyas continuously and unfailingly exploited the tribal voters, leaving the whole region now backward, deserted and desolate where the 70 % of the tribal population has become semi nomads and more are in the same process being drone to it.. In such a deceitful situation tribal voters are not much eager to pay attention to the politicians appeals to woe them.

Oh! Tell Me My Mind

This poem is a sung piece of poem, composed by Mahipal Bhuriya a famous tribal poet of India. In this poem he envisages a tribal society of India which is literate, classless, based on the noble tribal values of the country, where all shall enjoy the fruits of the economy, where there no disparity in the society, no one fights and make use of the corrupt courts,lawyers or legal system. The poet is concerned about basic human rights of women or girls.

Oh! Tell me my mind
Up to which class should I study..?

Such a class I should study
That gives me endless knowledge

Then no one may utter abuses
And no one may ever fight

No one shall break social unity
Hence no one should come to settle disputes

No one should go to courts
And seek corrupt lawyers

No one should raid
No one should rob my goats

No one should lift cattle
And carry away my bulls

No one to rob at mid night
May break in my house


No one should abduct
My companion Radi from Bhagoria festivals

No one should over eat
And, non should starve in my land...

MAMAYAN


Human Right Teachings of Mama Baleshwar Dayal

Mama Baleshwar Dayal was one of the greatest persons of the 20th century who led the ancient warring and violent race, called the Bhils in the Freedom Movement of India. He introduced an ideal notion or model of Adivasi Seva in Bhilanchal by his genuine life of a humble and simple Adivasi Sevak for the last 6 decades of the last century. He arose to the Adivasi human right scene for the protection of much neglected or marginalized indigenous peoples of the country for the last over 20 centuries for which Mahatma Gandhi, Thakkar Bapa, Ram Manohar Lohia and many other socialist leaders of the 20th and 21st century hold him in high esteem. Under the leadership of Mama the Bhils too contributed their due share in various ways in the Freedom Movement of India. Mama Baleshwar Dayal was earlier an active Congress Party worker since his college days. But later when he was rusticated from college, escaped to Jhabua region to take shelter in Jhabua State, he saw the perilous conditions of the Bhils in the state.

Mama was deeply moved experiencing himself the social pathologies of the Bhils in the 12 Princely states of Bhilanchal including Jhabua while leading morchas for their rights going even to jail, fought for the Bhil human rights for which Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru disagreed with Mama. Mama was against the breaches of Bhil rights in the 12 Prince States of Bhilanchal region. Pandit Nehru did not favour the Bhils but the Deshi Maharajas, due to which Mama strongly disagreed with Pandit Nehru and immediately left the Congress party and joined the team of then socialist leaders headed by Ram Manohar Lohia and others. Mama led the Bhils for the first General election and won many seats for the socialist party in Bhilanchal.

Mama the socialist leader hails from U.P. Mahipal Bhuriya the human rights worker of the tribal or Adivasi India and the India tribal human rights activist has written an important book in Bhili the language of the Bhils, entitled 'MAMAYAN'. The book 'Mamayan' based on the 50 important teachings of the great socialist leader and the Bhil Guru Mama. The font memories of Mama the Bhil Guru shall never be wiped from the memories of the Bhils to whom they worship today as a deified hero. In several places of Bhilanchal Mama's life size statues are erected, temples are built, Bhajans are recited, and the Bhils offer him aarti, pooja, observe fast and organise festivals in Bhilanchal increasingly today.

The book comprises of the 50 main teachings of Mama Baleshwar Dayal. It is based on the from oral sources in Bhili and the oral tradition or authentic oral narrations of the disciples of Mama from among the Bhils and non-Bhils. Among all the books written on Mama this is most authentic book since it is based on the life experiences of Bhils Mama's own simple and naive disciples in Bhilanchal. Mamayan is an interesting volume waiting for a publisher to support its printing. These relevant teachings shall redeem, improve, empower and enhance the Bhils in all possible ways in Bhilanchal, protect the Bhil over all tribal rights and alert them from the fraud ones, misleading NGOs. Besides, all these it shall also protect over all human rights of the Bhils and other tribes in India and serve as a model for the ideal tribal service (Adivasi seva) and not as a fraud that many NGOs are indulging in Bhilanchal. Hence the book MAMAYAN should be printed and published so that the admirers and followers of Mama should familiarise and re-vitalise the valuable teachings of their unforgettable Bhil Guru and the great socialist leader of India.
