The National Conference at Kolkata

 

Objective of the Convention

The National Conference of Doctors, Advocates, Engineers, Technocrats, Officers and Pensioners of the Mulnivasi (Indigenous) Bahujan Samaj has been organised on 10th and 11th August, 2002 at Kolkotta. There are very important and serious motive behind holding this conference of the aforesaid class and groups of aboriginal Indians, who is in this category of academic elite and who in the words of Dr. Ambedkar, are the wise, has the foresightedness, can pioneer the leadership, form the opinion and can give the suggestions. Dr. B. R. Ambedkar has also stated that the majority of people of the society follows up and peruses what this elite class reflects in its usual behavior. In application of ideological views of Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, this elite class is such an influential group, which has been always effecting every now and then.

            Babasaheb Ambedkar had some expectations from this academically sound group of elites. But this group of elite could not stand sound and solid on the expectations, which were anticipated by Dr. B. R. Ambedkar. If this elite becomes completely inactive, self centered, selfish and homely confined, this sort of reflection of this group will adversely effect in totality to our society of the aboriginals. Ostensibly, it has been observed in the society occasionally that this elite group does not own the responsibility to lead the masses, rather they keep distance from the society whereas it should be awakened and led by this group of elites. This group of elite saves its skin contrarily by  making the open criticism of the people of the society.

            Now there is the utmost necessity on the part of those who have been launching the movement that this sort of situation may not come in near future in the society. BAMCEF has viewed it seriously. This is the great necessity of today that this elite class should be made known of its duty, to engage and unite the society for the sake of social awakening. This is only the group of elite to pioneer towards the salvation of the Mulnivasi Bahujan Samaj from the clutches of Brahmanism. Keeping in view all these aspects the decision has been made to organize the national level convention of this category people at Kolkata.
   

Why conference in Kolkata

This conference at the national level is being organised at Kolkata with two purposes. The network of BAMCEF organisation has been speedily spread all over the country. Its ambit has widened comprehensive sources and means of the organisation have also been developing speedily day by day. These aspects have been proving the success of the Phuley-Amedkarite movement. Wideness of area of activities of BAMCEF and simultaneous development in the whole country is the first and foremost purpose behind organising the conference so that the masses will know about the organisational activities.

            The second purpose behind the convention at Kolkotta is that upto 2004, as per the first phase of the networking program, a decision has been made to spread the network in 550 districts and 2000 tahsils. This is already under implementation and it will also come under highlight of our people. It is also indispensable to bring it in area of our activists to the whole state of West Bengal effectively and expeditiously. Really, the unique and specific type Brahmanism prevails in the West Bengal, which should also be copied with effectively and expeditiously. BAMCEF is required to set up and set in action in the West Bengal with the strength and solidarity.
   

Social Networking

The success of networking of BAMCEF, which was planned strategically, has been approaching its limits tremendously. The national convention held at Delhi has witnessed this significant success. In this National Convention, there was presence of  the representatives and participation of 26 states of the country, which were from 276 districts, comprising of 1500 from OBC class, 300 from scheduled tribes and 50 from minority community respectively. This was the result of the planned networking which reflected the participation of different social groups, castes and creeds. Over and above there was also the participation of international delegates (NRI's) of 6 countries. Under this inspiration, international convention was organised on 9th and 10th March 2002. In the second phase, the international convention will be organised in 2004, which will be witnessed by delegates from almost 100 countries. In pursuance to our network planning, BAMCEF has also launched website in order to spread the organisation and the Phuley-Ambedkarite ideology at international level. It would widen the way and working of the organisation at national and international level.

            As it has been decided to spread the networking by 2004, in almost 550 districts and 2000 tahsils of India. For the completion of this process, 550 full time workers, preachers will be deployed. As soon as this 2004 phase is completed, the next phase program had been chalked out and will be commenced strategically. This second phase will have 2000 full time workers to preach and propagate our social public welfare planning which has already been chalked out for the emancipation of Mulnivasi Bahujan masses from the clutches of Brahmanism. Consequently, by 2007, our networking will reach to 50 thousand blocks and by 2009, it would reach to 6 lakh villages with the support of 50 thousand workers. Specifically speaking our block comprises of  6.5 lakh villages, if two workers are allocated in each village then there will be a strong army of 13 lakh workers at our back and call.

             This planning is a part of geographical networking, which is, must for the pride and prestige of the movement. However, both social networking and geographical networking are simultaneously indispensable. Under the social networking, the vivid groups of castes, categorised  as "Mulnivasi Bahujan Samaj," there is also necessity to induct networking among the influential group, which is inclusive of Doctors, Engineers, Officers, and Pensioners. From the point of view of the movement, the networking for and among them is necessary and unavoidable.

            We believe to implement the socio-geographical network. We are serious thereabout and know its significance. It will lead us towards the drastic change in our mode of thinking, equally irrespective of caste, creed, and character and the sense of good conscience could develop and pave us the path of the social awakening and revolution. In order to bring the mobility by way of networking among the influential groups of the society, the conference has been sponsored and organised in Kolkata.
   

I was betrayed by the Educated Class - Dr. Ambedkar

The intellectual is such group who had some social responsibilities to discharge towards the constructive work with some expectations to complete unperformed part of thereof which has been left by Babasaheb Dr. B. R. Ambedkar. This intellectual class was made to vest with the right proned group with the expectation to lead the society to do away with the Brahmincal social  system and emancipate the Mulnivasi Bahujan Samaj from this so called social system. However, this intellectual and elite group forgot entirely its duties. This group is apparently not active and conscious to do such sort of work of Dr. Ambedkar. Despite this fact, this group being the part of the depressed people of our society ignores them, sees them, with the neglected attitude, and keeps distance with them. This was realised by Dr. Ambedkar at the fag end of his life and with the heavy heart on 18th March 1956, at Agra. He expressed anguish and anger saying " The educated people have betrayed me. I was thinking that after their education they would serve their society. But I am finding a group of clerks has gathered around me who are engaged in filling their belly". This heart burning words proves that the intellectual group is cut off from the oppressed society, showing no affection with the people. BAMCEF realised this anti-social attitude of this elite class and undertook to awaken them about their sense of duty towards the depressed society. The results of our efforts is at the face of the facts throughout the country. The awakening , which has taken shape of the existing, is the gift of the glorious efforts of BAMCEF.

             By dint of achievements of our reformers, Phuley-Ambedkar, our present generation in each category of intellectuals is striving. This is only the group of intellectuals who can handle the reign of the movement in its hands. Hence it is the requirement of time that this influential intellectual class, being academically sound, should collaborate and co-operate in spreading the networking at the national level so that the recognition among the people of the movement and awakening of Phuley-Ambedkar ideology may be established effectively and expeditiously. Consequently, the intellectual group may realise the social obligations and take initiative to accomplish them in totality.
   

Significant work done by the full timers

First time this conference is going to be held at Kolkotta and our workers have been made alert and ready for discharging the specific endeavors. Units of BAMCEF and Mulnivasi Employees Welfare Federation (MEWF) are assigned the specific responsibility. Many Doctors, Pleaders, Engineers, Officers and Pensioners are already with us and those who are not associated with us till date, they will have to be contacted and pursued to participate in this conference. In the event they are happened to participate, it will be an admitted fact that our all workers and intellectuals have been grasping seriously the networking program and apparently, they (the elite class) had readily realised their socio-moral obligations.
   

Special contact campaign

Workers of all the units of BAMCEF and MWEF should initiate their activities since now. Special contact campaign needs  the prompt propaganda and preachment about the conference. The more we launch the contact campaign the more will be the participation of the intellectual class. Those who are not associated, they should be perused tremendously to come in our fold and participate in the conference. Participants who are pursued will have to be apprised at the time of train and other mode of transport. Subjects designed to be discussed in the conference should be revealed to the associates simultaneously insisting for advance booking of their tickets. We have to make the anticipated participants understand about the seriousness of the designed topics to be placed on  the platform of the conference. We should extend every sort of co-ordination and co-operation with those who have been included to participate in the conference. All workers associated with BAMCEF and MEWF should seriously materialise all the aspects of the conference as issues linked with the purpose of holding the conference are related to the freedom and salvation of the Mulnivasi Bahujan Samaj. We expect the emergence of our strength. Solidarity in action and practice out of the conference scheduled to be held at Kolkata.
