Hi,

Some 5 news items that I've not seen on your blog yet that you may find important/pertinent.
Followed by two questions.

Another scribd document - disturbing, must read.

Please, would you ask your readership to spread this through blogs and especially online social groups like orkut, so that more Hindu parents and young Hindu adults (male and female) become aware of this scheme?
That way they may be on guard against such situations and also young men may be more alert to what's going on with the Hindu family members/friends/classmates in their midst.

Dalit driver tonsured for missing work in Kerala

In a shocking incident, a Dalit was thrashed and his hair and moustache partly clipped by his employer in Thrissur, 75 km north of Kochi.
His crime: he couldn't attend duty for two days due to ill health.
K. Subramanyan, 42, a driver with a private English medium school, was hospitalised on Saturday morning.
Station house officer of Guruvayur K. Abhilash, who took proprietor John Rafi, 43, and his aides into custody, confirmed the crime.

When Rafi summoned Subramanyan on Saturday night, the driver never expected such treatment from his employer.
"My hands and legs were tied after I reached his house. He started beating me with a cane," Subramanyan, now admitted in a hospital, told HT.
"Later, he ordered two of his aides to bring a pair of scissors and my hair and moustache were cut partly. I begged him not to do it but he didn't listen."
"While hitting me, he kept on insulting my caste and abused me badly," he added.

Subramanyan was initially reluctant to lodge a complaint with the police, fearing a reprisal from his employer.
A police official said Subramanyan hadn't reported for work at the Vanivilasom School for two days after he was taken ill.
The proprietor, a local toughie, then decided to "discipline" him.
A relative of the accused claimed the driver was punished for "drink driving".
"We are investigating the case thoroughly. We are also looking into some of the earlier complaints against the proprietor," the SHO said.
Local MLA M. Murali and others have condemned the incident.



6. Finally, not a news item, but a worry: "Swamy" agnivesh has somehow managed to sneak himself into the respectable list of Hindu Heritage Endowments (HHE) which attract donations from Hindus.
See http://www.hheonline.org/cgi-bin/hheFundInfo.cgi?fundid=29 "Swami Agnivesh Endowment Fund. Provides support to the outstanding social service programs overseen by Swami Agnivesh of New Delhi."
Look how it is nestled 'innocently' among the Hindu organisations at http://www.hheonline.org/cgi-bin/hheFundDescriptions.cgi

Is there anything that can be done?
Would you expose this villain in your blog when you find the time, and ask your readers to write in to correct any Hindus advertising for him. He truly needs to be exposed: too many people are falling into his trap of cementing power in the Arya Samaj and among Hindus, because he has ensured good PR coverage (unwitting Hindu organisations supporting him out of complete ignorance).
I know you're busy, but you are influential and Hindus know you to be a reliable source of information and sympathetic to Hindu Dharma. They will not doubt you if you exposed him.

If you get the time, will you consider warning HHE of the anti-Hindu agnivesh? I have written them already and plan to write to their affiliated HinduismToday magazine since it repeatedly advertises for him. But I suspect it will have far more effect coming from you. I wish RR and SJ would turn their attention to exposing this villain who appears to now also have his own talkshow bashing Hindu Dharma on Doordarshan.


7. Do you know of any reliably *Hindu* charities to help the Hindus of Sri Lanka affected by the current war there?
The vultures have started a project to missionise among the victims already. And since the plight is kept largely silent in the news, the field is attracting the attention of the carrion-fowl only.


Every email I send you tends to be one-way request traffic. But I *am* grateful for your help, as well as for the work you do. (Naturally, I understand if you can not deal with either of 6 or 7, due to lack of time or for whatever reasons.)

Thanks.
