This article, published by Once in a Blue Moon Academia (OBMA), advocates for a non-violent, all-out resistance against systemic financial and ecological injustices, drawing inspiration from Gandhian principles of ahimsa (non-violence). It critiques the devastating impact of crony capitalism, specifically focusing on the Dewan Housing Finance Corporation Limited (DHFL) scam, which defrauded small investors through alleged corporate and political collusion. The article calls for collective action to challenge regulatory failures and corporate greed, emphasizing OBMA’s commitment to interdisciplinary activism and civil disobedience. By invoking ahimsa as a strategic tool, it parallels historical non-violent movements like those led by Mahatma Gandhi, urging stakeholders to resist oppression while upholding ethical integrity. The piece also outlines OBMA’s broader mission to address ecological crises and promote social equity, positioning non-violence as a powerful means to achieve systemic reform.

Our current activities concentrate on the case of Dewan Housing Finance Corporation Limited (DHFL), India. While exploring and investigating this particular case, we have found that India’s crony ruling party, gangsters, banksters as well as religious gurus and institutions are involved in the same. Therefore, to break such collusion, we have decided to deploy an “all out attack” on the existing paradigm of neoliberal market economy as well as market fundamentalism. ***DISCLAIMER: We have collected all the data from available sources on the internet as given on the official portals of media houses, websites and institutions and organizations.
