Rajiv Dixit (30 November 1967 – 30 November 2010) was an Indian social activist, public speaker and conspiracy theorist.
He was an ardent promoter of Swadeshi activism and was the national secretary of Bharat Swabhiman Trust. He got his primary and secondary education in Firozabad. It is falsely claimed that he graduated from IIT Kanpur, but an RTI revealed otherwise. His personal website rajivdixit.in claims that he wanted to get higher education in satellite telecommunication but left his education in the middle.
Career
Dixit founded the "Azadi Bachao Andolan" (Save Freedom Movement) in the early 1990s as a campaign to protect Indian industries, at a time when multi-national corporations were increasing their presence in India as a part of a trend towards globalisation. An aide to Ramdev, Dixit served as the national secretary of Ramdev's anti-corruption organisation Bharat Swabhiman Andolan.
During his career as an activist, Dixit demanded decentralisation of the Indian taxation system, stating that the existing system was the core reason for bureaucratic corruption. He claimed that 80 percent of tax revenue was used to pay the salaries of politicians and bureaucrats and compared the modern budget system of the Indian government to the earlier British budget system in India.
Death
Dixit died on 30 November 2010 in Bhilai, Chhattisgarh, due to alleged poisoning of his meals by foreign companies.
However, his death is a subject of controversy as no autopsy was performed, despite some of Dixit's followers being suspicious that the actual cause of death was poisoning. A Congress politician tried to malign Baba Ramdev as a possible suspect during their wider attempt of forging a Hindu terrorism narrative. But subsequent investigations by UPA and Supreme Court found malignant efforts on part of Congress workers to malign Baba Ramdev.
