George Reddy - Death

Death

Study circle discussions molded the young and impressionable, the restless and concerned intelligentsia into thinking on a deeper levels the causes for the social evils. George had answers that were different and seemed to be more profound. Dialectical and Historical materialism as well as readings on Marx’s Das Kapital, philosophical underpinnings of Hegel, Political writings of Lenin, Trotsky and Stalin shed a new light on the topics. He put the learning into practice by organizing the group to fight the reactionary elements represented by the Landlord elements, politically backed by the emerging Jan Sangh party and its student wings the ABVP. He stood in the front at all times leading the charge until he died that day on April 14, 1972.
