BR Ambedkar can easily be remembered as "The Father of the Constitution
of India" and the man who fought for the oppressed in the country. On
Saturday, April 14, 2018, India celebrated the 127th birth anniversary
of Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar. Popularly known as Babasaheb, he was an
Indian jurist, economist, politician and social reformer who inspired
the Dalit Buddhist Movement and campaigned against social discrimination
against untouchables since he was a Dalit too and also supported the
rights of women and labour. However, Ambedkar’s importance in Indian
history cannot just be limited to a person who championed for the rights
of the poor, downtrodden and lower caste people. He can easily be
remembered as “The Father of the Constitution of India” and the man who
fought for the oppressed in the country. He was the principal architect
of our Constitution and a founding father of the Republic of India.
Affection and commitment towards social work is the best activity of
life. We the Vincentian brothers, currently pursuing our philosophical
studies in Bangalore, were privileged to be a part of the Vimukti
Pothnal from 3rd to 12th of April 2018. Belonging to a congregation
which inherits its spirit from St. Vincent De Paul, it was a
rejuvenating experience for us to walk into the life of the people and
experience their very state of life. Our mission exposure programme in
Pothnal was animated and guided by Fr. Satish Fernandes OFM. When we
look into the past ten days, we had a gradual and progressive growth in
our outlook towards social work. We were introduced to a number of
activities and initiatives that aimed at the betterment of children,
youth, women and adults. In our visit to Gangavati, we could witness
with our own eyes the functioning of Child Resource Centers (CRC’s) and
Youth Resource Centers (YRC’s), run by Capuchin Krishik Seva Kendra (CKSK)
in collaboration with Child Fund India (CFI). 
Vimukti organized an innovative campaign in Sunkanoor on Saturday when
Vimukti women group visited each home and appealed the occupants to
exercise their franchise without fail. Amidst hot weather women along
with Anganwadi, ASHA workers and the school teachers, visited families
and appealed them to compulsory cast their votes in the coming assembly
elections. Women walked in the villages and distributed pamphlets among
people to create awareness. It is important for voter turnout that local
and state voting policies and procedures are public knowledge. Often,
voters do not know where, when and how to vote. Public awareness
campaigns can encourage voter participation and make important
information ubiquitous, thereby reducing barriers at the ballot box.
Thus Vimukti spread the public awareness in the villages of our targeted
area.
One day training on RTE was organized for village members at Vimukti
premises on March 18th, 2018. All pocket members were present for the
training. Mr. Sudarshan talk on ‘possibility thinking’ and social
leaders as mentor had made deep impression in the participants. The
documentary film ‘Jyothi’ with fitting commentaries was very effective
to teach the role of public leader as mentor. The participants expressed
their happiness and satisfaction in finding new meaning for their life
as mentor in social sector. In the Second session he spoke on length at
the end of the seminar each group made concrete action plans to promote
child right regarding RTE and its benefits. Nearly 42 CL and MCM members
participated and got inspired for the training.
On 4th march 2018 Vimukti with the collaboration of like- minded NGOs
from Raichur had press meet In view of upcoming general and assembly
elections; released a manifesto for political parties, demanding
adequate budgetary allocation for issues related to children. It also
includes measures for protecting their rights. According to a status
report on child rights, investment and attention to ensure education to
all children is extremely low, infant mortality rate remains a concern
and India's performance in crime against children, child marriage, child
labour, child trafficking and child sex ratio is dismal. "Though
children find a place in party manifestoes, their share is confined to
only 5 to 13%," said the Mr. Jaysheel, Taluka Coordinator.
One day seminar for Vimukti staff was organized on March 18th, 2018 in
VCT premises. Including village staff 58 participants were present for
the training. Mr. Sudarshan talk on ‘possibility thinking’ and social
animator as mentor had made deep impression in the participants. The
documentary film ‘Jyothi’ with fitting commentaries was very effective
to teach the role of teacher as mentor. The participants expressed their
happiness and satisfaction in finding new meaning for their teaching as
mentor in social sector. At the end of the seminar each group made
concrete action plans to promote child right education and leadership
for the young students in their own respective villages.
A state-wide massive ban liquor agitation is being launched at Raichur
from 20th of February 2018 to May 2018, has been organized at Mahatma
Gandhiji stadium Raichur. Every day nearly 100 women from various
villages of Raichur district come together and protest against liquor
ban in entire villages of Karnataka, holding placards and banners and
shooting slogans against alcohol consumption and demanding government to
put complete ban on alcohol and made a specific demand to political
parties to include prohibition in their manifestos saying “Our vote is
for those who implement prohibition”. "The effort of creating awareness
among people to stay away from liquor is being held continuously in the
