Death anniversary today
Adilabad: Seventy-five years ago, Komaram Bheem, who stood for the Adivasis’ rights over Jal, Jungle, Jameen, was assassinated by Nizam rulers after he became a nightmare for them in Adilabad. Even after so many years, the ideals of Adivasis’ leader are yet to be fulfilled in the agency area. Adivasis demand the government to keep Jal, Jungle, Jameen under the control of Adivasis.
In a bid to assuage the feelings of the tribals, the Telangana State Government is officially observing the death anniversary of Komaram Bheem on October 27 at Jode Ghat in Kerimeri mandal in Adilabad district. It would be attended by Ministers K Taraka Rama Rao, Jogu Ramanna and Indrakaran Reddy.
When Komaram Bheem was barely 15 years old his father was killed by forest officials for asserting Adivasis’ rights. After his father’s death, his family migrated to Surdhapur village. Young Komaram Bheem was agitated over his father’s cold-blooded murder.
He was annoyed when the atrocities against the tribal families by the forest officials increased manifold. Above all, the Nizam government levied cess on the tribal people when they graze their cattle in the forest areas. The forest officials forcibly collected this cess from Adivasis. The landlords had even taken away the Podu cultivable land from Adivasis. They had also levied heavy cess on the grain cultivated by them.
Komaram Bheem launched a massive agitation against the Nizam government in protest against the atrocities on the tribal population. He started guerrilla warfare against Nizam army.
Komaram Bheem resented the illegal cess on Podu cultivation which was a right of the Adivasis. Bheem brought the Adivasis together and waged war against Nizam army.
