"Defaulters of millions of INR like Mr. Vijay Malaya cant be offloaded but activists like me are bound to be offloaded," wrote Dungdung on Monday. "However, my fight for the Adivasis' ownership rights over the Natural resources, Adivasi identity, Human Rights, Ecology and against unjust development processes will continue till they take away my right to life forever. "As soon as the immigration officer heard that I worked in the human rights field, he walked away to talk to his superiors, returning only 15 minutes later," he said. Jharkhand-based human rights activist Gladson Dungdung has alleged that he was offloaded from an international flight on Monday morning for what he suspects to be a backlash to his recent book on mining in Saranda Forests and the resulting human right violations. Dungdung told HuffPost India that he got his boarding pass and was at the immigration desk when he first got inkling of what was to come.
