                                                   Press Release        Date: 19th May 2018
          Ganatantrik Adhikar Suraksha Sangathan, Odisha is deeply shocked with announcement of prize of rupees ten lakh by the government of Odisha for killing of seven “Maoists” in two separate incidents of Kandhamal and Balangir district, happened between 13 and 14 May 2018. This announcement shows that the police who are supposed to fire for self-defence have actually killed those cadres which is contrary to our constitution and law of this land. The Supreme Court and the National Human Rights Commission have fixed guidelines for the police engaged with such operation so that later should not go on firing innocent people.
As per fact finding reports of various human rights organisations including GASS seventeen innocent tribals and dalits have died between 2012 and 2017 in separate incidents like at Gumudumaha and Pangalapadar in same Kandhamal district, Nisanaguda of Kalahandi district, Bhaliaguda of Gajapati district, Lamataput of Koraput district by the armed forces. Though family members of all such incidents have filed separate FIRs but neither inquiry has ever been made nor jawans have ever been punished in any of the incident. At this pathetic situation such award-declaration would make life of adivasis, dalits and women of hilly districts more vulnerable.
In view of above situation Ganatantrik Adhikar Suraksha Sangathan (GASS) demands that the government should not take such steps which would give police a free hand to kill innocent people. Also the government should follow guidelines fixed by the NHRC and the Supreme Court in case of encounter killing with letter and spirit.

The Commission has put ten questions before the public to answer. We are here giving on Q/A mode.                We, all members of GASS, strongly believe that it is the responsibility of elected people to protect spirit of the constitution likewise it is the rights of rest of individuals to criticize the government if it is vitiated. So, for a country like India Section 124 A is unwarranted. ...

In 1980s, Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) of the State was far ahead of national situation and this was continued in 1990s, in 2001s and was same in 2016. As per the report of Registrar General and Census Commission of India published on 11 th February 2018 IMR of Odisha is 44 per thousand live births which is higher than the national situation that is, 34 per thousand live births.

The organisation demands a responsible answer from the government on higher rate of Infant deaths.          ...
