Razakar's Hamali

The story is about Ramaiah in the 1960s era who is married to a landlord Mallana's daughter in Karimnagar and the couple has one daughter. Ramaiah works in the Mallana garage as a mechanic. Mallana also has a farm and some cattle as well. Ramaiah takes care of the farm and cattle as well. Ramaiah is completely occupied with all the work from day one and has always taken care of Mallana assets. Mallana was happy with his attitude and hence married his daughter to Ramaiah.

In the neighborhood, a new neighbor Maharaja has arrived. While they were shifting all their luggage which came in nearly 6 to7 bullock carts, the whole village was shocked to see such heavy and expensive luggage on the bullock carts. When Maharaja arrived in his car Ramaiah got more interested as the face looked very familiar and the car they were traveling were also looked very familiar. The sound of the car also made a familiar noise. 

The very next day Mallana asked Ramaiah to come along to meet Maharaja and also repair their car to which Ramaiah agreed and went to their home. As soon as the arrive Maharaja home, he said "Please come in". Ramaiah got scared of that voice, the voice was very familiar and then he was vaguely memorizing that Maharaja was not the person he says. He was the same Razakar who tortured their family and other tribal people in their village with the support of Britishers nearly 20 years ago. Most of his family members were dead or in extreme poverty condition because of injustices done around Pre Independence by this guy. However, Ramaiah wanted to confirm if he is the same person or not because the Razakar was very aggressive and cold-hearted whereas this Maharaja appears very cool and pleasant.

Ramaiah was said to repair the car, so along with tools, he went to inspect the car. Ramaiah made some adjustments and start the car again for which the car sounded fine and Ramaiah got confirmation that it was the same car that was used by Razakar so he must be definitely the same guy. 

Ramaiah started memorizing 20 year back story, where a Razakar used to rule their village. He used to collect taxes from the farmers, whoever did not pay up the taxes he used to beat them up with a whip, or used to take their women or kill anyone so that villagers will be under scare and nobody refused to pay the taxes on time. The farmers used to get debts and pay the taxes. He always had support from Britishers so Police always supported him. Ramaiah was among the victims and he was around 7 years old, to reduce the debt burden Ramaiah and his father used to carry heavy rice bags into the home. Razakar used to call them Hamali although Ramaiah and their father were decent people in their village.

Rumors started around 1945 that Britishers will leave the country, so the villagers were getting a little confidence and started Revolting against them, the police also started revolting against Britishers at that time so it's now time to do that Razakar started scaring the villagers. As the days passed Razakar's home was pelted with stones at night and people used to rob his home. The next day he used to punish someone from the villager to scare them but one day he just shot a very young girl who was revolting against the punishment. They tried to take her to the hospital but she was dead while carrying to the hospital. The little girl was Ramaiah's elder sister. The villagers got so furious that they all gathered at a place and decided to kill Razakar on that night. 

This secret was passed to the Razakar, so he immediately left the palace along with his family and some important belongings. When all the villagers realized the Razakar has already left they just burned the palace and left. After Independence, all the villagers complained in the Police Station about this Razakar and there was a large on him around the country. There were some investigations made around the country about this Razakar but they never found him.

Now after 20 years he floated in Karimnagar and Ramaiah wanted to take revenge on him and that too within law. So, Ramaiah informed Mallana that he will be out of the city for a few days. Ramaiah went to their native village and met all his relatives and informed whereabouts of the Razakar in Gram Panchayat. For this, they decided to send some youngsters along with Ramaiah to capture the Maharaja and punish them as per law.

Ramaiah after returning to Karimnagar approaches Maharaja and lures him that there is a 10-acre farm nearby for a very cheap price and it could be useful for your grandkids. Maharaja got excited and left with Ramaiah in the same car. Ramaiah takes him to an isolated place and kidnaps Maharaja and uses the same car to go to their village. A lot of people started identifying the vehicle and concluded that he is the same Razakar. 

They tied him to a Fig tree and all the elderly people who are furious with him started whipping, slapping, and beating him. After a while word reached to Police Station for which they came and took him into custody. After a few days he was produced in the court, the lawyer of the Razakar brought all original ids of Razakar that he belongs to Gujarat and he has been living there since ancestral times. Due to his son's government job they had to go to Karimnagar. The son got his job through the reference of the Razakar, he faked himself as Maharaja and was a freedom fighter for which Maharaja got a lump sum pension along with a Job which was transferred to his son upon retirement. So, the court could not prove he is the same person and was told to honorably release him and continue their Job. 

One fine day Razakar and his son were going with very pride in his car, somebody threw bombs at the car for which both Father and son duo died on spot with the car burned to ashes. To date, the investigation continues on who threw the bombs, nobody knew.

After their death, the whole village set themselves with peace again.
