Letter from an Undertrial
LETTER FROM AN UNDERTRIAL
I was pleasantly surprised to receive a letter from Swami Amrutananda Dev Tirth, Shankaracharya, Sharda Sarvagya Peet, Kashmir (better known as Swami Dayanand Pandey), an accused in the Malegaon Blast case, languishing in Taloja Central Prison, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai.
The letter is in Hindi, which translated roughly, reads:
"I, Swami Amrutananda Dev Tirth, Shankaracharya, Sharda Sarvagya Peet, Kashmir am languishing in jail for the last 28 months, as an accused in the Malegaon Blast case, along with 10 other accused. I am at present in the Taloja Central Prison, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai.
During my stay in the prison, I happened to read your ‘Hindu Voice’ given to me by a wellwisher. All the articles in the Magazine are in the interests of the Nation and the original citizens Hindus and the Hindu society. My Sadhuvaadh to you. I pray God that your efforts give a proper direction to the society.
I would like to receive a copy of your current issue and also Hindu Voice issue of March 2009. I can pay in the form of postal order or money order. Also please send me your following publications. .....
Please send the above three books along with Hindu Voice March 2009 issue by VPP. Also let me know how to get your magazine regularly. I will honour the VPP. I am giving my address below.
UT-9, HSC - 2/15, Taloja Central Prison, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai 410210"
The letter was dated 22nd Feb. 2011 and I received it on 24th Feb. sent by Speed Post. The Envelop did bear the stamp and signature of jail authorities. Swamiji had also enclosed a self-addressed envelop, with Rs.15/- stamp affixed, to be replied by me by speed post.
Next day, i.e. 25th Feb., I sent my Representative with many of my books along with a covering letter (reproduced below). My man reached Taloja Central Jail and handed over my letter and the books to the Jail authorities. But the Jail authorities accepted only those publications which Swamiji had asked for and returned all other publications to my man. They even refused to accept my covering letter and returned it.
Our man tried to meet the Swamiji personally, but was not successful.
I have now sent the covering letter to Swamiji, in the self-addressed envelop Swamiji sent me - by Speed Post. I hope it reaches him.
