The letter, signed by 479 people from 47 countries, has been sent to the Chief Minister of Assam on 17th of April. Pranab Doley and Soneshwar Narah got bail on 18th of April.

To Mr. Sarbananda Sonowal, Hon'ble Chief Minister of Assam Via: Hon'ble Deputy Commissioner, Golaghat District, Assam

April 17, 2020

Dear Sir,

Sub: Unconditional release of human rights activists Soneswar Narah and Pranab

Doley and food security for all in Assam during COVID-19 pandemic.

We, the undersigned, are writing to you to express our deep concern about the arbitrary arrest

of the human rights activists and peasant leaders Pranab Doley and Soneshwar Narah, in

Golaghat District of Assam, on April 7, 2020.

The circumstances under which they were arrested, imprisoned without an immediate bail

makes the intention behind their arrest extremely suspicious and their arrest itself a violation

of basic human rights and an attempt to suppress voices which are raising serious issues in

these difficult times brought about by Covid-19.

A day before their arrest, Pranab and Soneshwar sent a letter to the Chief Minister of Assam,

asking a high-level probe in a scam related to siphoning off of 800 quintals of rice from the

public distribution system (PDS) in Kaziranga Cooperative Society and Golaghat’s

Community Cooperative Society. The local assembly representative from Golaghat, Mr. Atul

Bora, is the current Minister of Agriculture. Given the day to day struggle that the poor and

marginalised communities are facing in accessing basic needs because of Covid-19 related

nation-wide lockdown, rice and ration being distributed through the PDS has been critically

important for the local people, particularly poor and marginalised. Such corrupt practices in

these difficult times could lead to complete social breakdown, due to hunger and possibly

numerous deaths. On the day of the arrest Pranab and Soneshwar were called by the Police

officials to the Bokakhat police station to submit written statements pertaining to their police

complaint against Kaziranga Cooperative Society filed earlier at the same police station.

However, without any prior information or warrant they were arrested as soon as they arrived

at the police station.

The police claim that these arrests were made under a case pending since 2018. A First

Information Report (FIR) in the said case was filed against Pranab and Soneshwar in June

2018 for ‘deterring a police personnel for discharging his duty’. This is indeed surprising that

two people raising a serious concern about corruption should be arrested in a 2 year old case

in these times when even the Supreme Court of India has asked the states to decongest the

prisons to avoid Covid -19 outbreak. Bokakhat Police had numerous opportunities to interact

and investigate both Narah and Doley who have been in touch with District law enforcement

in the last two years. In view of this prisoners have been released from prisons across the

state. It is difficult to believe under these circumstances that Pranab and Soneshwar’s arrest

has anything to do with any issue other than the PDS scam.

Both Pranab and Soneshwar are important local indigenous leaders constantly working for

the welfare of the local peasants and indigenous communities living on the fringe of

Kaziranga National Park in Bokakhat, Golaghat district. During the lockdown they have been

working tirelessly to help their people procure essential basic life sustaining necessities. It

was in this context that the letter about the scam was written to the CM of the state to bring

this important issue to his notice. The local people need their two leaders more than ever in

these difficult times. Soneshwar is a father of a young boy and a respected school teacher at

Bokakhat, while Pranab is a young activist who graduated from TISS University Mumbai.

We urge the Hon’ble Chief Minister to immediately intervene in this matter where the local

police are misusing the law to silence the voice of human rights defenders who are bringing up

the issue related to critical food for the most deprivileged in these extremely difficult times.

World over when humanity is coming together to help each other we are appalled to hear that

even in these times those who are involved in corruption are being protected and those who are

helping the poor are being imprisoned and their fundamental rights to expression, dignity and

liberty are violated.

Through this letter we also demand that regular PDS rations are to be provided to the affected

persons in Golaghat as well as different areas of Assam.
