NationalityIndian

Rajiv Dixit (1967—2010) was an Indian social activist.

He launched a movement in the early 1990s as a campaign to protect Indian industries. An aide to Ramdev, he also served as the national secretary to Ramdev's anti-corruption organization, Bharat Swabhiman Andolan.

Early life

Rajiv Dixit was born in Allahabad on November 30, 1967, to Radheshyam Dixit and Mithilesh Kumari in Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh. He was educated as a child of a middle-class family. But while doing B. Tech in Allahabad, Rajiv started the 'Azadi Bachao Andolan' with his teachers and some colleagues. The goal of this was to make everything of India indigenous. After doing MTech from IIT, Rajiv worked in CSIR for some time.

Activities

Dixit founded the Azadi Bachao Andolan (Save Freedom Movement) and was a campaigner for the protection of Indian industries from the 1990s when multi-national corporations were increasing their presence in India as a part of a trend towards globalization.

Dixit demanded decentralization of the taxation system, saying that the existing system was the core reason for bureaucratic corruption. He claimed that 80 per cent of tax revenue was used to pay politicians and bureaucrats. He compared the budget system of the Indian government to the earlier British budget system in India, presenting statistics which he claimed showed that they were the same.

Death

Dixit died on November 30th, 2010 while in Bhilai, Chhattisgarh.In the last week of November, Rajiv was visiting Chhattisgarh, where he was to give lectures. When he reached Bhilai a day after his lectures on November 26 through the 29th, his health deteriorated. While going from there to the fort, his condition worsened further and he was stopped in the fort. After a heart attack, he was admitted to the government hospital in Bhilai and then transferred to Apollo BSR Hospital, where the doctors declared him dead.

Publications

Dixit wrote several books:

  • Swadeshi Chikitsa (in 4 volumes)
  • Gau Gauvansh Par Aadharit Swadeshi Krishi
  • Gau Mata Panchgavya Chikitsa
