Selective Injustice and Me !

I come from a group where people are very much sensitive about society, its various issues like inequality, injustice. Among us many are liberals, thinkers, activists, social workers, change makers (at least we proclaim ourselves to be such).

We discuss about great people and their thoughts about society and injustice like Gandhi, Tagore, Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, Ambedkar, Savarkar, Buddha, Govind Pansare, Karl Marx, Vinoba .

Still we find it very difficult to understand what does the term "injustice" actually mean ? Does it come with a tag "conditions apply" ? Can I fudge the definition of injustice as per my comfort zone ? Can I differentiate the injustice happening in Africa from the injustice happening in Asia ? Can I make a big bubble of injustice to glorify my work ? Is injustice  restricted to very few domains ? Why does each of us try to be a shining example of a true justice provider ? Is injustice an optional thing, which can be used according to convenience ? And so on.

 I believe whenever “a person is being oppressed by any of the million forms or subjected to an inhuman treatment, it is an unjust act.” No matter where he/she comes from, which caste or religion or race he/she belongs to Injustice is Injustice. And if we don't feel the same, sorry to say, we have fudged the definition of injustice as per our convenience. If we do, then we should raise our voice to convey dissent by whatever the means we can.

I see many people among us call themselves Gandhian, Ambedkarites, Leftist and so on. Gandhi, Ambedkar both believed in equality, diversity, freedom and non-violence. So if I call myself a Gandhian, it means I have understood Gandhi, or at least I have read Gandhi and I fully abide by Gandhi's philosophy. What if someone tries to tarnish or malign Gandhi or his philosophy with lies and doctored data ? Will it be an injustice to Gandhi and his philosophy, if I don't raise a voice against it or at least stop that person from doing it ? Or am I being false if I am not standing up for the things I believe in ? Or will it be an Injustice to society in which I keep on flaunting as a Gandhian ? 

Why Gandhi ? (As Example)

Being in Nagpur which is close to Sewagram and Wardha, where Gandhi spent later part of his life, I keep on bumping into lot of  personalities who never miss a single opportunity to flaunt as a Gandhi follower(simple living, minimalist lifestyle etc), but when it comes to stand for what they believe in, hardly anyone cares. Gandhi is just an example here, you will find some NGOs & their Heads who boasts about democracy, equality and shit, but in real world they give real tough competition to Hitler and Modi.

The big question is why are we being so selective about injustice ? When it comes to speaking about it, everyone literally changes into a revolutionary like Bhagat Singh or Che but when it comes to an action part we simply imitate Modi.(Just blabber, blabber and blabber but do nothing).

It is impossible and harsh for a person to stand and raise voice against each and every instance due to demographic, geographic and such constraints, but if  I speak so strongly about Injustice or if I tremble at every injustice, why do I defend only a few chosen areas of Injustice?  Am I being opportunist here for some personal gains ? 

Some of us also believes that injustice can be found only in rural area and we should work there to be a Messiah of true justice provider. If everyone starts working in rural area will it be an injustice to Urban area ? Is it an injustice to rehabilitate entire village without their consent for a Wildlife sanctuary ? Is it an injustice to farmers who never get enough MSP so that Government can keep vote bank happy ? Some of us have their own definition of certain things like Work, Education, Lifestyle and on that basis we decide whether a person's work falls in a particular category or what kind of person he/she is ? Is it an injustice to all those persons we have labeled as per our definition without hearing their side ? Or is it an injustice to force my ideas and opinions on others ? Is it an injustice to exploit other under the name of volunteer for social work ?

I don’t have a specific and absolute answer of any of the above questions. I just have questions which may help me.

I knew that injustice does exist, but I never knew it has so many forms and it is hell of a selective too.
