In February 2015, Pansare was shot dead at Kolhapur and after six months of the incident, Sameer, a Sanatan member was arrested by police. There is no need to give credit to the state as it was following a routine process of filing the chargesheet and denying bail to the accused.It was not the first time that Sanatan Sanstha appeared in the news for its unlawful activities.Prompted by a spate of murders of prominent rationalists, the heat was turned up on extremist organisations like the Sanatan Sanstha this year.
The chargesheet filed by a Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing the case says that a 14-year-old boy has identified Sameer Gaikwad, the prime suspect in the murder of Comrade Govind Pansare. It was also alleged by a few that the BJP-led Maharashtra government arrested Gaikwad only after the Congress-led Karnataka police had reached to him in the Kalburgi killing case. The investigation against Sanatan Sanstha got accelerated only after Karnataka progressive writer M. Defending the organisation. Should I do (the same) with Nikhil Wagle.M. However, I still doubt if the government really wants to go further in the investigation, as all the right wing extreme organisations are well connected and one cannot imagine where it would lead to," communist leader Prakash Reddy said. Its members Rudra Patil and Sarang Akolkar have been declared absconding by the National Investigation Agency. Gaikwad’s friend and member of Sanatan Sanstha Jyoti Kamble has also admitted in the chargesheet that Sameer had mentioned: "Done with Pansare. Six members of the Sanstha were arrested in the Goa blast case under the UAPA. The mouthpiece of the organisation has been writing against the rationalist leaders who were killed, but the police ignored the Sanatan. But this time it remained in the public eye throughout the year for its alleged involvement in Pansare’s killing. In 2011, two of the accused were found guilty and sentenced to 10 years’ imprisonment."It is true that Gaikwad was wanted in the Kalburgi case too."
Another vague reference of the killing came in a conversation between Gaikwad and another Sanatan member Anjali Jharkar. It happened only after the Sanatan was exposed before the public, mounting pressure on the state government to dig deeper. Earlier, in 2008, six persons owing allegiance to Sanatan Sanstha were arrested for planting bombs in auditoriums in Thane and Vashi and a movie theatre in https://www.bettnmac.com/product/banding-machine/ automatic woodworking edge banding machine Panvel. Rationalist leader Dr Narendra Dabholkar was the first victim of the extremist elements who was killed in 2013, but his murderers have still not been traced. Sanatan spokesperson Abhay Vartak said "Sanatan Sanstha may have opposed these rationalists like no one did, but at the same time we do not support violence in any form. However, the Maharashtra police arrested him before the Karnataka police to save face. It is not only the Communist Party that has been demanding investigation in the Sanstha’s activities and banning of the organisation, but common people have also raised their voice against the extremist organisation after which things started changing. However, the killings of three public figures forced the investigative agencies and the governments to intensify their operation against the fringe elements.
The boy not only identified the accused, but has also given a detailed description of what the assailants were wearing, their bags, motorbike etc.However, Sanatan Sanstha has cried foul over the arrest of their member. Kalburgi was shot dead on August 30 in a similar way. The state machinery had no option but to bow before the public outcry and hence the arrest took place. A demand on banning the organisation was also intensified during the period. However, it was not all that simple.
