RAJAN'S TALE
by Hanif Mohammed on Apr 28, 2006 10:27 PM

Its a fact that Rajan was murdered by the State, in a conspriancy which until today was not explained by concerned authorities. However, the Author completely omitted to explain why Rajan was arrested by the State. Rajan was a Naxalite, and he conspired against the State. In early 70's there was Naxal movement in Kerala, which was very disturbing. People were masacared mercilesslessly in cold blood, and Karunakaran managed to put a permanent lid on this movement with a heavy hand. Since then, Kerala is free from Naxal movement. Of course, any parent of son, who has committed a crime, will have similar feeling for their own kin. Do not understand what Rajeev is trying to portray here - glorifying a person who acted against the State ? I would request Rajeev to give the full version of both side of a coin.
