Being a Hindu, he was denied acceptance in the underworld. Enraged, he decided to form his own gang. In just 2 years, his gang rose to such prominence that Pathans, who ruled the underworld for over 2 decades, sought his help to eliminate the leader of their arch rival gang, the Konkani speaking Kaskar group. It was headed by Dawood Ibrahim's elder brother, Sabir. Manya was known for his dare devilry and strategic planning. For Manya, it was a clear shot to success. The top gang of the city had come asking him for help and in doing so he would eliminate the other, and therefore become, as he said, \"Bambai ka naya baap, Manya Surve.\" Thus was born the legend of Manya Surve, the first desperado in the Bombay gangland. The first educated Hindu gangster, who hailed from an area called Agar Bazaar in the suburbs of Dadar. Manohar Surve, a young man, fresh out of Kirti College got implicated in a murder that he did not commit and was sentenced to life in Yerwada Jail.Each and every one involved in Sabir's gruesome murder met with a worse fate. All except Manya Surve. He vanished in the city like a needle in a haystack. Dawood and his boys were unable to trace him. Around the same time, the Bombay Police had decided that enough was enough. They would no longer stand on the side as onlookers. The best in the force were assembled to send out one strong message to the underworld: No more nonsense. And thus was launched Operation Manya Surve. Inspectors Isaque Bagwan and Raja Tambhat were put in charge. Manya Surve's death in 1982 during an encounter with the Maharashtra police became known as the city's first recorded encounter killing. However, the spate of encounter killings only increased in the late 1980s and further rose after the 1993 Mumbai bombings; a total of 622 alleged criminals were killed in police encounters from 1982 to 2004."@en }
