it is very bad day in the history of india.he is an IIM graduate.IIM graduates are offered by lakhs of rupees salary.inspite this he joined in government job.this only tells his honesty.It’s a shame when honest,young bravehearts like Manjunath and Satyendra Dubey have to die when doing their duty.Many of indians have asked the government to take steps to ensure that their Manjunaths and Dubeys are not murdered again.

It is sad that money is the answer to an innocent man’s death. No one is fighting it nor has any law come into action. The system is corrupt and has been accepted that way. U work against it n u get killed. Why can’t the media do sumthin about it? IITians and the IIM’s shd come together and initiate action against the murderers. Will the Saudi Arabian law of “eye for an eye” work..I think not, but perhaps the only solution here!

Heres a story by Ila Patnaik in the indian express http://www.indianexpress.com/full_story.php?content_id=82819

Her arguement is that subsidizing kerosene gives incentive to the mafias running adulteration business. She missed another angle that untill very recently ALL petrol pumps were allocated to politicaly connected folks. (they have been given to families of dead soldiers as part of compensation packages also) So there is another mafia that controled who ran the business in the 1st place.

I remember Manjunath who was in my next room in my hostel in SJCE, Mysore. He was one year my junior. He was a great person, a great entertainer and a very friendly person. I have very fond memories of times with him. A tragic loss to India. I hope the offenders are duly punished.

May his soul rest in peace. Please DO sign the online petition.

Sincerely, Ajay.

A heartbreaking and shocking story for the Indians who are not capable to take care of their best brains.Such incidents happen in India everyday,many of them go unnoticed and unreported.Politics has taken the worst shape in India.Last time another pathetic story of Satyendra Dubey story also rocked our so called “justice”.

Sunny, I know that the guy's family went through hell literaly but i dont buy the callous attitude bit for even a fraction of a second.

I'm not denying any of that GGK. My point was simply that I hear of so many innocent people like this dying all the time that I have possibly become de-sensitised.

Of course it helps sometimes when one death is used as a rallying point to make a stand against a larger issue. And of course the guy's family went through hell. But that does not take away the fact that, unfortunately, such killings are all too common in India.

Completely agree with MJ on the IIM angle. Those are my thoughts too. Why focus so much on his alma mater. Is the IIM degree his greatest achievement? No .. it’s his character and honesty (which unfortunately cost him his life) that define him better than his IIM degree.

It's a pretty sad story but to be honest many such stories happen all the time. I think I've become pretty insensitive to them now. Such callous attitude to life has always been a part of India's collective nature.

Sunny, I know that the guy's family went through hell literaly but i dont buy the callous attitude bit for even a fraction of a second. The first time i saw the story was on SM then followed by an indian mailing list which still has UP material (despite the regional label being uttaranchal). Both Resident and non-resident Indian were the ones burning midnight oil so that this story gets out.
