We don’t know what transpired between Government and Baba Ramdeo and what compelled Government to take such a harsh and brutal action; but we know that out of crowd of 70,000 to 100000 persons hounded from the venue of Baba Ramdeo’s movement, approx. 50000 persons were from out of Delhi, mainly remote places of India. Having lost their belongings and nowhere to go, they are helpless and wandering on the streets of India, simply wanting to go their hometowns. Majority of them are aged and a few have been injured in the lathi (baton) charge. Today is Sunday, an off day for majority of us. I appeal to all the residents of Delhi and surrounding places to do whatever they can do for these Citizens of our country, who had gathered in their Capital City to participate in a peaceful movement for a rightful cause.
I have already visited R. M. L. Hospital and my assessment is that these persons only require proper guidance to board a train to their home town and in some rare cases, money for buying the train ticket. I again request to do whatever you can for these persons. If someone insists for continuing in Delhi for the sake of movement, you may simply ask if they require any meals, which is not going to cost you a bomb. ( In Delhi, it simply costs Rs. 20/- to 30/- for a reasonable one time meal)
