Kalburgi's son Shreevijay said, "The four people who have been assassinated were progressive and rational-thinking. Fundamentalist people are against such an ideology and want to create terror. They are terrorists."

Dr Narendra Dabholkar
It has now been five years since anti-superstition crusader Dr Narendra Dabholkar was gunned down by two suspicious shooters, whose identity is still a matter of speculation. To mark his death and the slow progress being made in the case, the kin of Dabholkar, CPI politician Govind Pansare, scholar MM Kalburgi, both of whom were killed in 2015, and journalist-activist Gauri Lankesh, who was murdered in 2017, will come together on stage for the 'Jawab Do' agitation in Pune's Rashtriya Seva Dal auditorium.
Chairing the event will be Mahatma Gandhi's great grandson, Tushar Gandhi. Speaking to mid-day, he said, "It is sad and dangerous for our society to see rational thinkers being silenced through violence. Apparently, the administration is also least keen on doing anything. It is hard to digest that such killers have not been traced even in such a technologically-advanced world."
