Few words on The Republic of Reason: Words They Could not Kill (Selected Writings of Dabholkar, Pansare, Kalburgi & Lankesh) | দ্য রিপাবলিক অফ রিজন – ওয়ার্ডস দে কুড নট কিল


Four rationalists, mature thinkers, writers, active and fearless propagators of their cause, were gunned down and shot dead, shot dead, by men who were quick to get away each time, in eerily similar circumstances. Within a gap of a few months, since 2013, starting with Narendra Dabholkar to Govind Pansare to Malleshappa Madivalappa Kalburgi to Gauri Lankesh. There was just a haze of horror first and supporters too angry to look at the pattern. But now, people are joining the dots and pressure has forced the Maharashtra police to arrest a member of the Sanatan Sanstha, which openly gave death calls. No one has been picked up in the Gobind Pansare and MM Kalburgi cases yet. They were killed to silence them, and to send a message to others who may question about how a question could result in a bullet to your head. Targeted at their most vulnerable, at home (Lankesh), early in the morning, out for a walk (Dabholkar and Pansare) or attending to queries from 'students' (Kalburgi), the idea was to kill and flee and ensure that their ideas would die with them. In Republic of Reason: Words They Could Not Kill, it is tried to bring together a few samples of their work, worlds and concerns and get the reader to acquaint h/erself with what it is that assassins don't want read or spoken anymore.
