Condolence Message on Demise of #SwamiAgnivesh

14 September 2020, Hazaribagh (Jharkhand): Mr. Girija Satish (President, NBJK & National Lok Samiti) has expressed deep sorrow over passing away of Swami Agnivesh, a well known social activist and a sannyasin of Arya Samaj order.

He said that Swami Agnivesh was associated with Lok Samiti right from the beginning and he has supported our demand of Right to Work in the year 1987. Besides this, very often he used to attend Inter Caste-Inter Religion Marriage conventions. Mr. Girija Satish described him as a progressive person who stood in favour of the deprived people always and opposed superstition vehemently. He remembered Swami Agnivesh in support of ordinary people at Ranchi during 2011 when the Government has started an anti-encroachment campaign and demolished their habitats ruthlessly.

His initiatives for restoration of human rights, release of bonded labours and a way out to naxal problem are unforgettable and we will miss such a different personality very much, Mr. Girija Satish pointed out.
