Mumbai: A day after the daylight murder of prominent rationalist Dr Narendra Dabholkar in Pune, the Maharashtra Cabinet has cleared the anti-black magic and superstition ordinance. The Dabholkars had been campaigning for this legislation for over a decade.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan was even heckled by protesters on Tuesday over the delay in the Bill. Meanwhile, a massive manhunt has been launched to trace and arrest the two alleged killers of Dr Narendra Dabholkar.
Police officials say the two assailants came on a motorcycle and shot dead Dhabolkar who was on a morning walk near the Omkareshwar temple in Pune. The police have released a sketch of one of the suspects with the Mumbai Police providing technical assistance in cracking the case that has sent shockwaves across Maharashtra.
Dabholkar was at the forefront of a campaign to persuade the Maharashtra government to pass an anti-superstition and black magic bill. He founded the "Andhashraddha Nirmulan Samiti" (anti-superstition movement) to change social mindset and inculcate scientific temper in 1989 after starting work against widespread superstition in 1983.
