Pooja Khedkar’s Parents Avoid Police After Alleged Threats to Farmers with a Gun

In the case of the parents of Pooja Khedkar, it is learnt that they are at large for their reported threats to local farmers with a pistol. This act has caused shock and debate, revealing an undercurrent of tension across farmer and local authority circles.

Pooja Khedkar's Parents Avoid Police After Alleged Threats to Farmers with a Gun

Suddenly, Pooja Khedkar, an activist working on farmer rights and rural development, got embroiled in a controversy involving her family. It all began when farmers complained of an altercation with Pooja Khedkar’s parents over land. They further claimed that during this quarrel over land, Pooja Khedkar’s parents displayed a gun, following which the police report was filed.

Within no time, local police filed a report against the parents of Khedkar at the behest of the farmers. Attempts to find and arrest them have not succeeded, and now the questions are on everybody’s lips: where are they, and what next?.

Anyway, the matter drew many eyeballs because Pooja Khedkar happens to be a public figure and a family is involved in an alleged crime. Obviously, those who have been keenly sympathetic to farmers’ agitation have condemned it and demand hasty action and justice. The Khedkar supporters are seeking a proper enquiry and demanding that the investigating authorities examine all angels of the case before taking decisions.

The recent developments have led to shining the beacon at a higher level by the district and police authorities in tracing Khedkar’s parents and bringing them to book. The case has become a rallying point for debates relating to rural issues—land disputes, how public figures manage their family affairs.

However, Pooja Khedkar refused to comment on the case against her parents, stating rules did not permit her to do so.The two-minute video shows Manorama Khedkar brandishing a pistol to threaten a group of farmers, yelling at a man over what appeared to be a land dispute. She, however, conceals the pistol on realising that she is being recorded.

Pooja Khedkar happens to be neither a public personality nor any wok of activist working with communities, and so she did not speak a word to the public about what had happened to her parents. This has again brought to the fore how public figures and their families should react when problems afflict their community.

What people of every walk, at large—researchers of law, farmers, and politicians—are watching is when the investigation is in the process. The case can then condition popular perception about justice and fairness in India.

The case described herein illustrates how things get complicated in rural areas: the ones regarding land, employment, and sometimes headmen issues overlap with family members and personal issues. Nonetheless, this goes further to open our eyes on how opportunities for dialogue and solution-finding with the use of law are opened up so that no one shall have injustice pass on them.

The Pune police had confiscated a luxury car used by the trainee IAS on Sunday. The Pune Regional Transport Office (RTO) had issued a notice to a city-based private company, which is the registered owner of the Audi car that 34-year-old Khedkar used during her posting here.

Long story short, Pooja Khedkar’s case helped me learn that this has to be one’s honesty, sense of responsibility, and law-abidingness, which should become the last solution in society against societal problems. What’s more, I have learned that people with public life and their family will go an extra mile to do the right thing, even when it involves hassle.

Well, just keep watching to know the updates of what will happen next when police are doing the case solving, trying to make things right for every people in this mess.
