Namantar Shahid Smarak, Social justice memorial in Nagpur, India.
Namantar Shahid Smarak is a memorial in Nagpur with 27 sculptures honoring people who died during social protests. Each figure is accompanied by plaques that explain the person's story and contribution.
The memorial was built in 2013 to honor the Namantar Andolan movement, when Dalit communities fought against educational inequality. This movement became a defining moment in the struggle for social justice in Maharashtra.
The sculptures express the struggle of Dalit communities for social recognition and educational equality. They stand as a testament to those who fought for their rights.
The memorial sits near Indora Bridge on Kamptee Road and is easy to reach. Plan time to read the inscriptions and understand the meaning behind each sculpture.
The exact location marks where young activist Avinash Dongre lost his life during police action against demonstrators. This personal story anchors the larger struggle for justice to a single, human moment.
