The week of global action launched by the International Committee in Support of the People’s War in India, on the recommendation and in close connection with the Communist Party of India (Maoist), was in Italy an important qualitative leap in anti-imperialist and internationalist proletarian support in our country.

All activities were concentrated on a strong day in Rome.

In the morning there was a demonstration at the Indian embassy. The Italian imperialist state and the police headquarters in Rome had banned the demonstration in front of the embassy and, taking as a pretext the use of Roman squares for the electoral campaign, had also denied the nearby squares, granting only a square far enough from the embassy.

All the operating structures of the Committee have organized, therefore, in legal and illegal forms the initiative. First we concentrated in a denied square, Piazza della Repubblica and the demonstration began by displaying the banner “Basta bombe e droni sulle popolazioni – Basta massacri e repressione – Libertà per tutti i prigionieri politici.”[Stop bombs and drones on populations – Stop massacres and repression – Freedom for all political prisoners] supported by representatives of the various mass organizations. Meanwhile, the notes of “Bella ciao” of a supportive Bar resounded in the air.

Then the comrades without flags and symbols moved compactly in the direction of the embassy and reached it counting on the “surprise” effect. Clearly the forces of repression expected a blitz and when the strong delegation appeared they lined up in front of the embassy.

The protesters did not stop, they raised the banner in front of the entrance of the embassy and shouted slogans.

The police did not intervene but pressed for the action to end.

As planned, the demonstrators put the banner back and went to the square that had been granted and occupied it in the side facing the passage of people.

The police again intervened demanding that the demonstration take place in restricted forms and less visible to the masses. The firm resistance of the women comrades, who were still the majority of the demonstrators, rejected this attempt; and a long second part of the demonstration took place.

A massive mass leaflet of the communiqué of the Support Committee and of the appeal of the Communist Party of India (Maoist) was made and dossiers and materials of the Revolutionary Proletarian Feminist Movement on Indian political prisoners were spread.

In addition to the banners for political prisoners and against drones and massacres of indian populations, a large banner was placed in support of the people’s war and also was re-proposed the exhibition that is circulating throughout Italy of the Revolutionary Proletarian Feminist Movement.

All the representatives of the adhering bodies took the floor, with strong and blunt interventions, appreciated by the demonstrators and the masses who passed, stopped, talked, asked. The voice of the workers of the Slai cobas, of the women of the RPFM, was particularly heard.

The demonstration was joined by the International Red Rescue, the main organization in our country in defense of political prisoners of the Red Brigades and an integral part of the international network present in several countries. These comrades had brought a large panel for the political prisoners of Turkey and northern Kurdistan, and a militant former political prisoner took the floor in the square, and this had not happened for some time.

The other big aspect of quality was the presence of six representatives of the several hundred Indian workers working in factories and workplaces in northern Italy, who defied blackmail and repression – these are workers who identified in front of the embassy and in the square risked dismissals and expulsions, taking into account the strong pressures of the Indian embassy, inspired by the Foreign Minister of the Modi regime, towards the European governments, and Italian in particular, so that the prolonged and incisive campaign may come to an end.

A campaign that also saw on this day the presentation of a dossier to the national and international press on the conditions of Saibaba and Varavara Rao and on the list of prisoners of the various associations operating in India, sent by the Indian comrades, and whose liberation and defense of health conditions in prisons are claimed.

Numerous passers-by stopped in the square, including some citizens of Indian origin and a large group of girls, some working in solidarity associations, who were interested in the campaign and forged ties in particular with comrades of the RPFM.

During the demonstration, slogans were shouted: “Freedom for political prisoners!”, “Long live the people’s war!”, “Long live proletarian internationalism!”, “The imperialist war can only be stopped if the people’s war advances!”.

It was the first and important event in Rome, where the Committee was not present and had no active solidarity structures.

But the day is not over.

In the afternoon in the important structure of Metropoliz, a factory occupied and transformed into an imposing cultural and artistic museum by hundreds of migrants and Roma people who occupied it, led by the movement of struggle for housing – ‘Metropolitan Blocs’ – an anti-capitalist proletarian assembly was held, organized essentially by communist proletarians, which saw the participation of 70 representatives of trade union bodies, association of struggle, committees against repression, movements of various Italian cities, Marxist intellectuals engaged in the main Italian universities, on the themes of the struggle against imperialist war and the social struggle of proletarians, migrants and popular masses.

In this assembly, the voice of solidarity with the Indian political prisoners and the people’s war, was clearly expressed. All participants received the information and complaint material, distributed during the day and some of the participants in the demonstration for India took the floor in the assembly and in particular the representative of the Indian workers of Bergamo.

An endless day, probably the strongest and most articulated that there has been in Europe and in the imperialist countries in recent years; a point of arrival of the prolonged action of the Committee in Italy led by the PCm; but above all a new starting point for the development of a real mass movement in support of the people’s war in India.

Wayanad District, September 24, 2022: Several CPI (Maoist) banners were found in the village of Kunhome in Kerala’s Wayanad district on Saturday morning.

The banners, calling on the Paniya tribe to take up arms against the government, were found on the wall of the Thondernad panchayat bus stop and several shops in the vicinity.

“Despite a history of fighting the fire-breathing guns of the British with bow and arrows, members of the Paniya tribe still lack land in their name. Long years of pleading with the government have yielded little result. We urge the tribals to take bow and arrows as well as guns to challenge the government,” the banners read.

The banners also exhort the CPM government not to delay disbursing compensation for the victims of monsoon calamities.

The police have begun a probe into the incident. This is the second time this year that Maoist posters have been discovered in the northern districts of Kerala state.

In April, a poster was found in Kozhikode’s Mattikunnu area near Thamarassery criticizing the ruling CPM government’s SilverLine rail corridor project.

In it, the Maoists labelled the project as “anti-people” and expressed their solidarity with the section of the masses who are opposing it.

The Maoists have also equated the policies of the CPM government to that of the Narendra Modi-led government at the Centre.

in Human Rights— by Harsh Thakor—

The democratic community of Europe expressed its heartfelt condolences to the fascist repression unleashed on the Indian people, particularly on the untimely demise of Comrade Pandu Naroti, an Adivasi who stood by the working class, peasants and all oppressed and exploited people of India. It expressed its condolences to his family and friends in Mureweda village, a poor Adivasi community in Gadchiroli district, Maharashtra. The activists represented the Worldwide Action Week, called by the ICSPWI (International Committee to Support the People’s War in India), from September 13 to 19 for the release of political prisoners and demanding a stop to drone attacks in India. Comrade Naroti died in prison last August 25, at the age of 33, after being denied his rights to proper medical treatment. The Modi regime was directly responsible for his murder by violating his rights while in prison.

Although sparse in numbers, qualitatively impactful protests were staged in Hamburg, Holland, Austria London and Rome on 17^th September calling the international call for the release of all political prisoners of the fascist Hindutva government. We must congratulate activists in Italy who defied ban imposed on staging the protest. It is most timely an imperative with fascism accentuating and sprouting in another form even in Europe, amidst the worst economic crises. A protest was also staged in Bogota in Colombia..Posters were sprung up on walls, illustrating the merciless oppression of the drones attacks.

Comrade Naroti was arrested in 2013 on accusations of violating India’s Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act after being maliciously associated with the CPI (Maoist). Naroti was sentenced by the Modi regime in 2017 with life imprisonment, along with former Delhi University professor and Revolutionary Democratic Front leader G.N. Saibaba ,Vernon Gonsalves,Sudha Bhardawaj , Anand Teltumbde , Gautam Navlakha ,Rona Wilson,Arun Ferreira , Varavara Rao and now Rupesh Kumar..Thousands of Maoist, Muslim and dalit activists are languishing in prisons, being framed without any proper trial. We must remember how during the Bhima-Koregaon protest in the name of Maoist terrorism genuine democrats like Anand Teltumbde were framed who are openly critical of the Maoist movement. Such arrests are a manifestation of the ascendancy or penetration of proto-fascism, of the Brahmanical Hindutva variety. They are not meant to crush the Maoist movement but to deliver a crippling blow to all democratic dissent and constitutional democracy, in the name of Urban naxalism. Liberals should study the manner the state has left no stone unturned in distorting the facts, fabricating false evidence. The arrests llustrated how the current BJP regime wishes to champion the hegemony of the Brahaminical caste system and wipe out all assertion of dalits for rights. Similarly democratic activists of Kashmir have been victimised.

His murder is not the first in the hands of the fascist Modi regime. A year ago, 82-year old Adivasi rights advocate Fr. Stan Swamy perished health in prison. More deaths are the order of the day as India’s activists, progressives and advocates continue languish within prison walls.

The Maoist political prisoners and the democratic Indian revolutionaries have been incriminated for rendering their lives to confront   a destructive and reactionary system which enslaves millions of unfortunate people of the earth. They have dedicated their lives to waging a battle against a system that is directly responsible for the deaths of 6,000 children every day and that has displaced tens of millions of Indian people from their habitats and destroyed their means of livelihood in order to pave the path for the plundering of profits for multinational companies.

India’s reactionary government, hypocritically projects itself as the world’s “largest democracy.” The truth is that this largest democracy acts as an instrument of violence and repression to patronise the monopoly of the comprador and feudal bourgeoisie in India.

In recent years notable protests were conducted by the Committee for release of political prisoners all over the country as well as civil liberties groups like Association for Protection of Democratic Rights of West Bengal, Peoples Union for Democratic Rights of Delhi and Civil Liberties Commitee of Telenagana and Andhra Pradesh. Notable voice has been raised by stalwarts like Arundhati Roy and Himanshu Kumar as well the democratic movement of Punjab. The civil rights movement needs to encompass wider sections, incorporating the workers and peasantry and not be confined to intellectuals.

It is important that even those who oppose the Maoist movement comprehend the roots of what let it sprout, which lay in the barbaric oppression of the Adivasis by the corporate and ruling classes. Such protests should be seen in light of the broader framework   of violation of rights and against fascism as a whole.. The real enemy is the corporates who tooth and nail loot the Adivasi community. It is important that the worldwide movement for civil liberties is not converted into a Maoist front but a broad based platform, to challenge rise of neo-fascism. The targeting of Palestinian activists and Muslims is regular feature in Europe .It is imperative that the European working class and youth can identify and co-relate their crisis with the corporate exploitation in the third world, with the goal of extinguishing the neo-fascist resurgence.

Visakhapatnam District, September 20, 2022: Secretary of the CPI (Maoist) Andhra-Odisha Border Special Zonal Committee (AOBSZC), Comrade Ganesh, has appealed to the people across the tribal areas and also in the urban pockets to celebrate the 18 anniversary of the party’s formation.

The CPI (Maoist) was founded on September 21, 2004, with the merger of the Communist Party of India (Marxist–Leninist) People’s War (People’s War Group) and the Maoist Communist Centre of India (MCCI).

In a letter released late on Monday night, Comrade Ganesh said in this year alone about 124 comrades were “martyred” and it includes a few key members such as Central Committee and Political Bureau member Akkiraju Haragopal alias Ramakrishna alias RK, and senior leader Dappu Ramesh.

He pointed out that a number of their comrades were languishing in various jails across the country, and efforts were being made to get them released.

The Maoist spokesperson also alleged that the security forces, both from the State and the Union governments, were filing false cases against innocent tribal people and putting them in jails.

Comrade Ganesh claimed that innocent tribal people were being projected as militia members and Maoists and shown as surrenders only to boost the image of the security forces and create a wrong narrative that the people were rejecting the Maoist movement.

Message of solidarity to the Communist Party of
India (Maoist) on its 18th anniversary
September 21, 2022
The Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) and the New
People’s Army extends its fraternal greetings of revolutionary solidarity to the
Communist Party of India (Maoist) on the occasion of its 18th anniversary.
The CPP honors the 124 heroes and martyrs who died in the past year while serving
the cause of new democratic revolution in India, including members of the Central
Committee of CPI (Maoist) and warriors of the People’s Liberation Guerrilla Army. We
grieve over their deaths, but more importantly, we draw inspiration from their
example of selfless dedication to the liberation of all the oppressed and exploited
classes and people.
The CPP deeply appreciates the gesture of international solidarity of the CPI (Maoist)
in paying tribute to Ka Oris, former NPA spokesperson, as well as other communist
and revolutionary leaders across the world.
The CPP supports the CPI (Maoist) in leading the resistance against the fascist and
reactionary Brahmanic Hindutva Narendra Modi regime, particularly in fighting to
overcome and frustrate the all-out military offensives against the revolutionary
forces and people under the so-called “SAMADHAN”-Prahar strategic offensive. We
are inspired by the determination of the CPI (Maoist) and the PLGA to resist the
relentless fascist onslaught that vainly seeks to crush the people’s democraticrevolution and pave the way for greater imperialist plunder of India’s resources and
exploitation of its workers and peasants.
We are gratified by the persevering efforts of the CPI (Maoist) to consolidate, expand
its membership, and strengthen democratic centralism from the level of its leadership
to its branches. Every communist around the world must commend your efforts to
study and apply Marxism-Leninism-Maoism to your short-term and long-term
goals. Indeed, the unity of will of the CPI (Maoist) is the key to the unifying the
proletariat and people of India as it overcomes the violent attacks of the fascist
regime.
The CPP and the NPA salute the fierce determination of the PLGA to fight back against
the enemy’s offensives. We are deeply elated by the PLGA’s victories in the field of
armed struggle, despite experiencing temporary setbacks. These victories raise the
revolutionary enthusiasm of the Filipino people and revolutionaries as much as it
intensifies the determination of the Indian masses to rise up against their oppressors
and exploiters.
We are also elated by the efforts of the CPI (Maoist) to build, broaden and strengthen
the united front and mass movement of the Indian people against the anti-people,
anti-worker and anti-peasant policies of the Modi regime. Through the Party’s
leadership and efforts to arouse, organize and mobilize, the broad masses of the
Indian people are sure to rise up in greater numbers in broad democratic resistance
similar to the recent peasant uprising and broad workers strike movement.
The international capitalist system and its insoluble crisis of overproduction continue
to subject peoples and entire countries to grave economic crisis. In a vain effort to
further expand its profits, the imperialists are waging wars and causing widespread
destruction of productive forces. In collusion with the local reactionary classes, they
are intensifying the plunder of resources of its semicolonies and the exploitation of workers and peasants around the world. The entire world presently face threats of
recession and depression, with hundreds of millions of people suffering from rising
inflation, especially in terms of food and fuel prices, widespread unemployment and
overall economic slowdown.
The crisis is engendering conditions of widespread resistance. All over the world,
people are rising up spontaneously to demand higher wages, lower prices and greater
social protection. Amid these conditions, communists in all countries must work
doubly hard to make the proletariat perform its leadership role in order to guide and
direct the broad masses of the people to the path of revolutionary resistance. It is the
duty of communists to link up the daily struggles of the people with the long-term
goal of ending imperialist oppression in order to attain the people’s aspiration for
national freedom, democracy and socialism.
The CPP and the all revolutionary forces in the Philippines stand with the CPI (Maoist)
and its revolutionary forces in advancing the revolutionary cause against imperialism
and all reaction. Together, let us accumulate more and more achievements and
celebrate each other’s victories.
Long live the Communist Party of India (Maoist)!
Long live the Communist Party of the Philippines!
Long live the revolutionary guerrilla fighters of India and the Philippines!
Long live the workers and peasants of India and the Philippines!
Uphold Marxism-Leninism-Maoism!
Carry forward the natiworkers and peasants around the world

Hace unos días se conformó la sección colombiana del Comité de Internacional Apoyo a la Guerra Popular en la India. Varios comunistas, revolucionarios y luchadores populares de siete ciudades del país se encontraron en una reunión virtual, convocada a través del portal Revolución Obrera, para darle concreción a esta sección. Días previos, desde el mismo portal se había realizado acciones de propaganda sobre el deber internacionalista de la clase obrera y el pueblo oprimido en Colombia para organizar el apoyo al proceso revolucionario en curso en la India, liderado por los camaradas del Partido Comunista de la India (Maoísta).

La reunión de conformación inició con la sustentación del camarada León, vocero de este portal, sobre los inicios del Comité Internacional de Apoyo a la Guerra Popular en la India, seguido de una ilustración sobre el carácter de la sección colombiana del Comité, de los criterios para la participación y lo que va ser su estructura organizativa. A lo largo de la exposición los demás participantes fueron exponiendo sus dudas y haciendo comentarios para enriquecer la reunión. Al finalizar, se establecieron los contactos entre cada uno de los participantes y se decidió organizar las primeras reuniones por ciudades para que los activistas se agrupen en Comités Locales y se pueda emprender el trabajo acordado.

La conformación de la sección colombiana del Comité de Apoyo a la Guerra Popular en la India es una buena noticia para el avance de la línea revolucionaria en el movimiento obrero y de masas, y una muestra del internacionalismo proletario y la solidaridad de los pueblos. Además, vale resaltar que su conformación se hizo en el marco de la Semana de Acción Mundial por la liberación de los presos políticos en la India y contra los ataques con drones.

En las próximas semanas por las redes sociales se estará brindando más información sobre la sección colombiana del Comité de Apoyo a la Guerra Popular en la India. Aquellos compañeros y compañeras que decidan sumarse a esta iniciativa podrán contactarse enviando un mensaje al siguiente correo electrónico: comiteciagpicolombia@tutanota.com

Hamburg: Kundgebung zur Unterstützung des Volkskrieges in Indien am 17. September

Als Beitrag zur internationalen Aktionswoche zur Unterstützung des Volkskrieges in Indien hielt das Bündnis gegen imperialistische Aggression am 17. September 2022 eine Kundgebung vor dem indischen Generalkonsulat in Hamburg ab. Mit Transparenten, Schildern, Flugblättern und Redebeiträgen wurde zur Solidarität mit dem Volkskrieg in Indien aufgerufen, die Freilassung der revolutionären Gefangenen und revolutionären Kriegsgefangenen gefordert, sowie der Terror des alten indischen Staates gegen das Volk verurteilt. Außerdem wurden die elf Forderungen verlesen, die von der Kommunistischen Partei Indiens (Maoistisch) kürzlich aufgestellt wurden. Parolen wurden auf Deutsch, Englisch und auf Hindi gerufen.

Die Bediensteten des Konsulats fotografierten die Kundgebung eifrig aus den Fenstern heraus, versteckten sich aber in ihren Räumlichkeiten. Als die Kundgebungsteilnehmer entschieden, sich direkt vor den Eingang zu stellen und über das Schild des Konsulats ein Bild von Genosse Saibaba zu kleben, riefen die Bediensteten sofort die Polizei zur Hilfe. Diese forderte die Kundgebung dann dazu auf, sich vom Eingang des Konsulats zu entfernen. Statt dem aber nachzukommen, riefen die Teilnehmer ihre Parolen noch lauter und kraftvoller.

Mit der Kundgebung in Hamburg wurde einmal mehr deutlich, dass der Volkskrieg in Indien auch hier am anderen Ende der Welt seine Freunde und Unterstützer hat. So gibt es auch in Hamburg, in vielen anderen Städten der BRD und überall sonst auf der Welt, diejenigen, die den Kampf der Genossen in Indien als ihren Kampf sehen und so ihre Aufgabe annehmen, den Volkskrieg mit aller Kraft zu unterstützen.

Über die Dauer der Kundgebung wurden durchgehend Parolen auf deutsch und Hindi gerufen, sowie Flugblätter und die Rote Post an Passanten verteilt. Auch einige Autofahrer teilten begrüßten die Kundgebung, machten Fotos, hupten um ihre Unterstützung zum Ausdruck zu bringen oder riefen den Demonstranten im Vorbeifahren Worte der Unterstützung zu.

In zwei Reden wurde der Volkskrieg in Indien als einer der größten und entscheidendsten Kämpfe für die Befreiung von Ausbeutung und Unterdrückung hochgehalten und die völkermörderische Politik des indischen Staats verurteilt.

Auch aus dem Konsulat wurde die Kundgebung mit regem Interesse verfolgt, was die Aussagen der Polizei Lügen strafte, die im Voraus behauptete, es sei gar niemand da. Aus Fenstern und unter teilweise heruntergelassenen Rolläden hervor beobachteten die Konsulatsangestellten die Kundgebung, machten Fotos und Videos. Dabei blieben sie aber stets hinter ihren vier Wänden versteckt und hielten sich sonst sehr bedec

Let us Celebrate the 18^th Anniversary of the Party from 2022 September 21^st to 27^th with Revolutionary Enthusiasm and Firm Will!

Letusenhancemassbaseand advancePeople’sWar!

Let us defeat the strategic ‘SAMADHAN’-Prahar offensive of the Enemy!

DearComradesandPeople!

It is 18 years for our Party, the Communist Party of India (Maoist) by 21^st September 2022 since its formation. Our party is the vanguard leading the revolutionary movement in the country. On the occasion, the Central Committee of the party calls upon the entire ranks of the party, revolutionary people’s organs and revolutionary people to celebrate the 18^th Anniversary in the rural and urban areas all over the country with revolutionary enthusiasm and firm will. It calls upon to enhance mass base in all corners of the country, strengthen the party and to advance People’s War in India and to defeat the counter-revolutionary strategic ‘SAMADHAN’-Prahar offensive.

One hundred and twenty-four comrades have become martyrs in the past one year courageously encountering the ‘SAMADHAN’-Prahar attacks unleashed by the enemy in a bid to eliminate our party and the revolutionary movement, that is making determined efforts to achieve the great objectives of destroying the rotten semi-colonial, semi-feudal system in the country and accomplish New Democratic Revolution and to establish Socialism- Communism all over the world. Thirty of them are woman warriors. The martyrs include member of the CC and Polit Bureau Comrade Akkiraju Haragopal (Ramakrishna, Saket), member of the CC and Secretary to Special Zonal Committee of Maharashtra-Madhya Pradesh-Chhattisgarh, Comrade Milind Teltumbde (Deepak, Jeeva), member of DKSZC Secretariat Comrade Uppuganti Nirmala (Narmada), member of BJSAC Secretariat Comrade Sandeep Yadav (Rupesh), 13 members of ZC/DvC/DC, 30 AC/PPC and 27 activists of people’s organs. We are yet to receive the details of 25 comrades.

In addition to them, we lost several leaders, activists of revolutionary, progressive, democratic Mass Organisations, intellectuals, sympathisers and friends of revolution. On the occasion of the 18^th Anniversary of our Party, the CC pays humble revolutionary homage to all the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the liberation of people including the beloved founder leaders of our Party Comrade Charu Mazumdar and Comrade Kanhai Chatterjee.

The martyrdom of several leadership comrades such as the leader of Peru Communist Party Comrade Gonzalo, the spokesperson of NPA of Philippines Comrade Ka Oris and founder leader of Galicia Maoist Communist Party Comrade Martin Naya is a severe loss to the International Communist movement. Comrade Gonzalo correctly applied the theory of MLM and PPW to the social conditions in Peru and emerged a great leader in advancing People’s War in the country. He did great service to advance the World Communist movement against imperialism. Comrade Ka Oris played an important role as a Senior Commander and Spokesperson of NPA in fighting back the intensive counter-revolutionary offensive taken up by the comprador rulers in the dictates of US imperialists in a bid to absolutely eliminate the Revolutionary movement in Philippines. Sixty-two year old Comrade Martin Naya well known as Miguel Alonso in the International proletarian movement lost his life out of severe ill health on 3^rd September 2021. As a Trade Union leader and a leader of the MLM Party of Galicia he had been holding high the Red Flag for the past four decades and working untiringly to develop the International Communist movement. The CC pays Red homage to all these great working class leaders and all the fighters who sacrificed their lives in the ongoing New Democratic, Socialist revolutions, the various anti-imperialist, national liberation struggles and democratic, progressive, patriotic movements of various countries as a part of World Socialist Revolution. Let us pledge to fight until our last breath with firm determination in the path of revolution that the martyrs showed, in the spirit of their proletarian ideals, highlighting their self-less sacrifices and advancing towards achieving the ultimate victory.

The CC expresses deep condolences for all the heroic fighters injured in the process of foiling the enemy’s plans in their brave counter to the

‘SAMADHAN’-Prahar attacks in the past one year. It strongly believes that they would recover soon and jump into the arena of People’s War. During this time, veteran comrade of our party, member of Polit Bureau, Secretary to the Eastern Regional Bureau, Comrade Kishanda, members of the CC Comrades Sheeladi, Kanchanda, Krishnamurthy and Vijay Kumar Arya were arrested. The arrest of these comrades makes a negative impact on the advancement of New Democratic Revolution in the country. Many comrades were caught by the enemy, tortured, foisted with false cases and imprisoned. Fascist judges of Bihar and Jharkhand imposed death sentence to few comrades. Hundreds of comrades, revolutionary peasant activists are facing punishment. All of these comrades are transforming the prisons into struggle centres and are holding aloft the banner of revolution. The CC conveys revolutionary greetings to all the comrades. It assures that it would make all attempts for their release in the earliest.

The CC adopted tasks on the occasion of the 17^th Anniversary of the party to fight back the enemy’s ‘SAMADHAN’-Prahar offensive and advance the revolutionary movement according to the specific conditions of various areas. Let us look into the development and the results we achieved in various sectors in the past one year in achieving these tasks.

Party

Party, PLGA and Revolutionary people’s organs from the top to the bottom levels worked for the past one year to implement the decisions of the CC meeting in 2021 January. There was relative improvement in the team work of the committees. However we need to concentrate on individual and collective study. We need to attain much more improvement in the functioning and to develop unity of thought of the committees. We achieved a little improvement in creatively applying democratic centralism to the conditions in the light of MLM with the real spirit corresponding to the conditions so as to develop genuine ideas and in utilising the method of self- criticism-criticism as a sharp instrument. We made certain effort to unite all the ranks of the Party, PLGA and Revolutionary people’s organs, to take them among the broad masses and to transform them into a strong, organised force. However, there is yet a lot to do to mould the Party with unity of

thought and practice, with discipline, to control escapism and to develop communist values.

During this period, party took up a campaign to consolidate the party. The party committees issued circulars according to specific conditions and are implementing the program of consolidation. Efforts are going on to strengthen the three revolutionary magic weapons to the best of the capacity to achieve the central task. Importance was given to the protection of the party, especially the leadership. Membership increased to a certain extent in few areas during the consolidation campaign. New party cells were formed and the affected party cells were reorganised. Efforts were made to impart training so that these cells lead the People’s War in the local level. Education was taken up for the cadres basing on the reviews and tasks of Plenums of various Special Areas/Special Zones/States. Individual study, study camps and training classes are going on to educate cadres on the party documents namely ‘Changes in Relations of Production in India – Our Political Program’ (MOP), ‘Nationality Question – The stand of our Party’ and ‘Political and Organisational Review of the Central Committee’ (CC POR) up to the lower levels. These are to be taken up to the Mass Organisations and the people. Party has to adopt tactics, that is the program of class struggle corresponding to the objective situation basing on the MOP document and work to implement it with undeterred determination.

Incidents like Pareva hold up a great value of sacrifice in the heroic retaliation to the counter-revolutionary, strategic ‘SAMADHAN-Prahar’ offensive of the comprador ruling classes. However, there is no change in the method of work as per the changing conditions that led to very severe loss to the party. In view of these losses, the Polit Bureau (PB) issued a circular in 2022 January explaining the need to prevent such losses. The circular appealed to realise and rectify the weaknesses and shortcomings in studying and understanding the strategic tactical plan of the enemy and in practice, to review each and every incident and take lessons and to implement them firmly. Correspondingly, concrete effort is to be developed in the entire party. Member of the Polit Bureau of the party Kobad Ghandy betrayed the revolutionary theory of MLM and the revolutionary movement and released

a book ‘Fractured Freedom-a prison memoir’ to which the Central Committee wrote a reply in a theoretical booklet. It stated that Kobad’s book was a confession of a betrayer. It expelled him from the party. The CC gave a call to view Kobad who was a member of the CC and turned a betrayer to revolution after his arrest, as a negative teacher.

Party published the History of JanaNatyaMandali, the Cultural organisation that played a revolutionary role in its own style in the cultural sphere in the history of revolutionary movement of Andhra Pradesh and attained a prestigious place. The invaluable experiences that JNM handed over to the cultural sphere contribute to the development of the sphere and to overcome the challenges being faced in this work.

During this period, our party intervened at various levels exposing several Acts and policies that the central and the state governments brought forth in the interests of the imperialists and the comprador ruling classes. There is a gradual change in agitation and propaganda activity of the party. It is utilising social media to an extent. The publication of magazines of the central and the state committees is relatively better. The CC released a Souvenir on the occasion of the culmination of the 20^th Anniversary of PLGA apart from the special issues of Awami-Jung and of magazines of various states. The CC released an abridged life history of Comrade Kanhai Chatterjee, a founder leader and teacher of our party. It also released the first volume of compilation of the life histories of members of the CC since the emergence of the united party until 2014 in Hindi.

The CC expanded its efforts in the sphere of international working class movement in various ways in this period. It worked to muster international support to the call of the ICSPWI for ‘Action Day on 24^th November’, the International Women’s Day on 8^th March and other such Revolutionary Days. It took up a program in solidarity to the revolutionary movement in Philippines on the occasion of 53^rd foundation day celebrations of the NPA on 29^th March. It placed before the people the stand of our party on the Russian war of aggression on Ukraine. Thirteen MLM parties of various countries approved and jointly issued the statement given by our CC on the occasion of May Day, the international working class day of struggle. The CC

sent a message to the meeting of ICSPWI on 1^st July and the international meeting of the MLM parties held on 2^nd and 3^rd of July. It presented the party document ‘The stand of the party on the formation of International organisation of the proletariat’. Our party highlighted the resolutions of the meeting that the MLM parties must take up united practice against imperialism and in support to the People’s War in India and must work in the direction of formulating a joint understanding on the formation of international organisation and other such aspects. The solidarity work taken up by ICSPWI in the international plane is commendable. This effort of the various MLM parties in the world shall certainly contribute to the remobilisation and consolidation of Socialist revolutionary forces and to develop revolutionary movements.

PLGA

PLGA forces made guerrilla war at various levels to daringly fight back the fierce Prahar offensive of the enemy in the leadership of our party. They relatively enhanced people’s efforts so as to help overcome the temporary setback and advance the revolutionary movement. They had an active role in mobilising and organising the people in anti-imperialist, anti-comprador bureaucratic capitalist, anti-feudal class struggles and build militant people’s struggles. They stood in support to building and rebuilding various revolutionary Mass Organisations and organs of Revolutionary people’s state power. They took up Tactical Counter Offensive Campaigns (TCOC) and guerrilla actions in few areas in the leadership of Party Committees, Military Commissions and Commands and gained certain victories. Few important guerrilla actions such as the attack on security guards of Manoharpur MLA in Jharkhand in which two body guards were eliminated and 3 AK Rifles were seized, the Naupada-Patadhara surprise ambush in Odisha in which two ASIs and three CRPF men were eliminated and 7 were injured and 3 AK Rifles were seized. In Dandakaranya 9 Para-Military and Special police men were wiped out, 34 Para-military and Special police were injured in different guerrilla actions. In the guerrilla actions of PLGA in various guerrilla areas in the past one year, 13 Para-Military, Commando and Special police were eliminated and 54 of them were injured. 5 anti-people political leaders, 34 police informers,

two betrayers of revolution and one people’s enemy were eliminated. These successes in guerrilla war helped to inculcate revolutionary enthusiasm and to contain the enemy offensive to an extent.

The Party committees held several political classes and military training camps to strengthen the PLGA forces. Efforts were made to provide primary understanding to them on the basic documents. Training is being imparted to the main, secondary and base forces of PLGA on various kinds of combat skills, technical skills and improvised weapons. Efforts are made to arm PLGA forces basing on local resources. Party committees, Military Commissions, Commands, Military Instructor Teams and Departments are playing the main role in this work. Party is making planned efforts to preserve PLGA forces and ancillary departments, to strengthen the weak units, to rebuild the affected units, build the necessary new units and to sustain and expand the movement. It is containing the disruptive actions of betrayers of the party and PLGA and is preserving the party, people and the movement.

United Front

The CC assessed in 2021 January that the several people’s movements going on in the country for the past five years shall develop into a countrywide ‘spate of people’s movement’. The rising people’s movements prove the assessment correct. Party daringly made constant efforts amidst fascist repression of the enemy to build agitation and propaganda of the oppressed classes and oppressed sections, to build the various Mass Organisations and to develop them through adopting plans in the respective areas. We attained certain level of relative development in building anti-imperialist, anti- comprador bureaucratic capitalist, anti-feudal class struggles. People are mobilising in thousands of numbers all over the country and in the revolutionary areas against corporatisation-militarisation (expansion of carpet security) and displacement. Our party has to take initiative to develop the political consciousness of the struggling people in all the areas.

Our party became part of the peasant struggle against the three Agrarian laws and corporatisation of agriculture that was centered in the capital city of the country for more than a year, to the extent possible. The militant struggle of the farmers with the help of workers, students, democratic

forces, the entire oppressed classes, sections and nationalities forced the Modi government to withdraw the three Agrarian laws. The success of the struggle provided a good experience for our party in the sphere of United Front.

There were several struggles against the acquisition of farmers’ lands, government lands and forest lands such as in Hasdeo, forcible displacement and devastation of environment for the proposed mines, projects and pro- corporate, anti-people infrastructure and National Parks of foreign Multi- National Companies, domestic comprador bureaucratic capitalist companies such as TATA, Adani, Ambani, Vedanta, Jindal, Mittal, ESSAR and various governments. There were protest demonstrations all over the country against state violence, for the withdrawal of lakhs of police forces and camps deployed for the protection of corporate companies, for the release of political prisoners imprisoned in jails in several conspiracy cases such as Bhima Koregaon and demanding the annulment of draconian laws such as the UAPA. Militant struggles took place for prolonged periods in the areas of revolutionary movement. Especially people are fighting for power of the tribal and oppressed people on ‘water-forest-land’, to implement the 5^th and 6^th schedules in the tribal areas, to implement the power of Gram Sabha, to demand autonomy for the indigenous-tribal areas, against the proposed amendments to the Forest Conservation Act-1980 that liquidate it, against indiscriminate drone attacks in tribal areas in the name of ‘elimination of Maoists’ and demanding ‘stop massacres in Bastar’, ‘punish the responsible police officers’. Especially the tribal people of Dandakaranya formed a United forum in the leadership of which militant struggle is going on for the past one year against police camps, the atrocities and massacres on the tribal people that started in Silinger on the border of South Bastar’s Sukma-Bijapur districts and extended to over 15 other places all over the Special Zone. The movement in solidarity to this struggle expanded all over Chhattisgarh and also in the country and in the world and this stands as a model. Tribal people of Telangana are fighting for preserving their podu lands for a long time. People of forest areas fought against the attacks of the forest officers. Party led struggles to seize forest lands and waste lands in certain areas. It mobilised

people on farmers’ problems. In the process it made efforts to propagate the politics of seizure of political power through armed struggle among the people.

Party extended support to the strikes and bandhs of organised and unorganised workers, employees, teachers, Anganvadi employees, migrant- displaced workers and youth and others against the four anti-working class codes that the Modi government brought forth and the privatisation of banks, Railways, LIC, mines, steel plants and the entire public sector enterprises and companies. It declared its support to the struggle going on in the leadership of United Action forum against the proposed Silver line semi-High speed Railway corridor in Kozhikode district of Kerala. People are preparing for struggle against the proposed hydro-electric project in Navarangpur district of Odisha on River Tel. Women are not only taking part in all these struggles but are militant in all the struggles against the brutal atrocities on them. They came on to the roads and took up militant struggle in protest to the incident in which a school teacher Mamita Mehar of Raigarh district of Odisha was killed and her dead body buried. In another case a bishop was found not guilty by the court in a rape case on a nun in Kerala and other such issues. People held demonstrations in many areas against the problems of daily life, especially against the Russian aggression on Ukraine and against the sky rocketing prices.

There are several struggles against the atrocities and massacres of the Brahmanic Hindutva forces on religious minorities, especially Muslims, Christians, tribal and Dalit people, women, students and intellectuals. Poor people living below the poverty line in the country are fighting for their right to food. Human rights organisations, social activists, prominent Professors, historians, experts of various sectors and social researchers in several towns are expressing protest with the demand for ‘preservation of democracy’. They are protesting the cruel repression unleashed by the state in the name of ‘urban Naxal’ on the voices that question its misdeeds. Students-youth- teachers are mobilising in several struggles against the new National Education Policy that saffronises and corporatises the education sector, demanding right to universal education, against online education and

demanding solution to the rising problem of unemployment. The unemployed youth of the country rebelled against the ‘Agnipath’ scheme of the Hindutva Modi government to saffronise and casualise the Indian Army.

Party not only extended support to several such struggles but also made efforts to participate in and lead them. In the process several Mass Organisations working in the leadership of the party held Conferences in many states and adopted the future tasks. They consolidated politically and organisationally. Various open and secret Mass Organisations and United Action forums are increasingly formed and are working. Party is making efforts to develop the necessary study and the specialisation to lead the oppressed classes, sections and nationalities according to their aspirations. Constructive effort is going on regarding farmers’ problems.

Organs of revolutionary people’s state power are working at the village, area and district levels in places of intensive guerrilla war in the leadership of the party and are taking up people’s state power in the primary level. Revolutionary people are preserving these people’s governments and are formulating their future. Those are placing alternate model of development in the embryonic stage. People of several villages acted on the call of the party to boycott the panchayat elections in Jharkhand and Odisha and did not vote demanding a solution to people’s problems. They are getting organised towards the alternative revolutionary state power.

Dear Comrades and People!

Although there is little relaxation in the economic depression that is going on since 2008 in the international plane, imperialist financial and economic crisis is going on intensifying. Imperialists are implementing globalisation policies in order to overcome the crisis and to divide and exploit the world as per their balance of forces. There is an unprecedented rise in the differences between the rich and the poor. The backward Asian, African and Latin American countries became absolutely dependent countries.

In addition to the external and internal conflicts environment also fell in crisis leading to natural calamities and deadly diseases like COVID in several backward countries such as Somalia, Ethiopia, South Sudan, Yemen and Afghanistan. Prices doubled. Due to these reasons, 34.5 crores of poor people

in the world are suffering from hunger and diseases. Due to imperialist sponsored globalisation policies, comprador exploitive rulers are destroying the few welfare systems that are left over. A large number of poor people are committing suicides in desperate condition. Around 8,500 children are dying every day due to lack of nutritional diet. According to an assessment, starvation deaths shall be unprecedentedly high since 1960s in 2022-23. While the income of the poor is receding, the prices of essential commodities are steeply rising.

The Ukraine war intensified these crises. It is pushing the economies of several countries into further crisis. Economic crisis is intensifying all over the world with the thousands of sanctions of the US and European countries on Russia in their imperialist interests and due to the disruption of supply chain of several important products, raw material and food material. Russia already fell in inflation. In US too, inflation was record high in the past 41 years. The world is going further into the mire of food crisis. Unemployment is on the rise. While the imperialists and comprador exploiters are minting profits from the war in Ukraine, crores of oppressed people are dying due to food crisis, lakhs due to displacement and lakhs due to starvation deaths. Twenty lakh people of all oppressed classes, all religions and nationalities, especially women came on to the streets and fought for months against the comprador rulers in Sri Lanka that fell in economic crisis. Workers made two General strikes. The Army, police and the judiciary came to a standstill. None of these was ready to apply force on the agitating people. Imperialist countries talked the least towards the economic and social crisis in the meetings of BRICS, G7 and NATO held in 2022 June. This further intensified the contradiction between imperialism and oppressed nationalities and people. People’s struggles are mounting against imperialists and comprador ruling classes in the backward countries. This is showing a large impact on the working class, migrant people, non-white people and also on the middle classes in the imperialist-capitalist countries. Various oppressed sections including workers of these countries are taking up militant strikes.

The true character of the fascist policies of the President of the US, Biden to regain its lost hegemony on the world came to light in the past two

years. There is severe protest from the people of the US against the policies. Of late, women came out in severe protest to the annulment of right to abortion by the Supreme Court of the country. The US murdered the leader of Al Qaeda Ayman al-Zawahiri through drone missiles in Afghanistan. The US is continuing its war economy as a part of its world hegemonic geographical political strategy and is coordinating those with NATO centring in Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. The US played an important role in intensifying the war in Ukraine. Cold war started once again between the imperialists with the Russian war of aggression on Ukraine. As a part of its Indo-Pacific strategy, the US sent its spokesperson and woman speaker of people’s representative assembly Nancy Pelosi on a tour to Switzerland, Taiwan, Japan and other countries. It thus instigated China. It did not heed to the strong opposition of China to her tour. As a result the situation around Taiwan island became tense with war manoeuvres of the US and Chinese armies. There is a worldwide war atmosphere with the US trying to reorganise basing on alliances such as NATO, QUAD and AUKUS and Russia and China contending in every sector.

Due to the globalisation polices taken up by Hindutva fascist Modi government, the agent of the imperialists in our country, the value of rupee fell to 79.65 per dollar. The country is tumbling deep into the mire of loans. While the total loan of the country was Rs.55 lakh crores in 2014, it reached Rs. 135 lakh crores in the eight year bankrupt rule of Modi. It means they have been making loans of Rs. 83,000 crores every month. The government is going to take a loan of another Rs.16.61 lakh crores this year. The fall of rupee is going to lead to further loans. One third of the loans are to be repaid in the coming 9 months. Foreign exchange of our country decreased to a minimum in a period of 15 months by 2022 July to 571.56 billion dollars. Therefore new loans have to be borrowed to repay the loans or else the government properties have to be sold. 8.2 percent funds of the budget are already being spent on payment of interests on loans now. We see that the Modi government opened up a ‘loan burdened India’ and ‘dependent India’ while reciting about ‘Atmanirbhar (self-reliant) India’. Modi government paid Rs.2.02 lakh crore rupees to the big capitalists and Rs.10.75 lakh crore rupees

in lieu of the loans that they did not repay, in 2021 alone. This makes clear as to whose pockets the Modi government is filling.

In Modi’s governance trade deficit rose to a worrisome level due to more expenditure on imports than the income from exports. With this, the burden of taxes rose on ordinary people. The international market is witnessing a bizarre rise in prices of crude oil with the Russian war of aggression on Ukraine. The prices of essential commodities are going sky high. Prices of fertilisers, pesticides and agriculture machinery rose thus increasing the cost of agriculture. Inflation is beyond 15 percent. India is in low level in all the vital economic indices. There is no rise in the growth rate of retail for the past eight years. Unemployment rose considerably. The central banks of the US and European countries recently increased interest rates. Foreign investments are going out of our country due to distrust in the growth of Indian economy. Demand for goods must rise in the market if the growth rate has to increase. Demand would rise only with a rise in the purchasing power of the people. For this purpose the problem of unemployment has to be solved. Wages must be increased. Taxes must be reduced. This is lacking in our country at present.

According to the Centre for Science and Environment Report-2022, 71 percent of the Indian people are not able to have minimum nutrition (such as food grains, proteins, vegetables and fruits). As a result 17 lakh people are dying every year. There are cuts in welfare schemes. With the governments stepping out of its responsibility of health and education and corporate enterprises gaining hold on them, both the sectors are at loss. These are exploiting people’s money to the corporate hospitals in the name of treatment. Nearly 7.8 crores of houses of the country lack electricity. 33 percent of the population do not have an income of at least 80 rupees. India is in the lower most 150^th place of hunger index in the world. It is in the 142^nd place in human development index and in the 139^th place in happiness index. The Universities of our country are in the lower ranks among those of the world. Indian Constitution states that no citizen of the country must suffer from poverty and hunger and that everyone must have equal opportunities. Directive principles state that it is the responsibility of the government to see

that wealth does not accumulate at one point. But the reality is totally on the contrary.

Due to the globalisation policies adopted by the exploitive governments for the past three decades, the rich are becoming richer and the poor poorer. 77 percent of the wealth of the country is with 10 percent rich people. A recent report from OXFAM revealed that two persons of the country are going below the poverty line per second in the country. This amounts to

6.3 crores per year. Nearly 18 to 20 crore people of the country fell below the poverty line with loss of employment during the Corona crisis created by the imperialists, due to bankruptcy in trade, intensification of Agrarian crisis and other such reasons. At the same time, the richest person of the country Gautam Adani and Mukesh Ambani and many industrialists minted money. This is the actual picture of our country said to be the biggest democracy in the world.

The fascist policies of the Modi government are giving further hold to the domestic and foreign corporate companies in all sectors. The eight year rule of Modi either annulled 1800 Acts that are in the way of the corporate companies or amended the Acts in favour of the capitalists. Steel, electricity, coal, digital contracts, High Ways, Railways, Airports, Ports, Public sector enterprises, natural resources, lakhs of crores of subsidies, waiver of bank loans and all such are given to the Multi-National Companies and comprador capitalist giants such as Adani and Ambani in the country. It either shrunk or withdrew the organised sector in all the sectors and casualisation became the ordinary policy.

Socio-economic conditions are degenerating due to intensified economic crisis in the international and domestic planes. People are highly discontent of which the comprador Hindutva rulers are well aware. Therefore their leader Modi is applying all kinds of tricks to deceive the people. He is making false promises about ‘development’. He is playing magic about the ‘prosperity of the country’ in order to drip them in illusions, to instigate Hindutva fascism and national chauvinism and make them socially useless. In fact the policies of Modi government are absolutely against the people and the country and in favour of the imperialist banks, Multi-National

Corporations, big comprador bureaucratic capitalists and big landlords. These policies further degenerated the conditions of workers, farmers, middle classes and oppressed social sections.

Utmost bureaucratic, fascist Acts are being brought forth in the rule of Brahmanic Hindutva forces in the leadership of Modi. Cruel repression is unleashed on various toiling masses and democratic and human rights movements. There are constant arrests and false encounters. Suppression of democratic rights has become an ordinary feature in the country. In addition to our party, the Revolutionary Mass Organisations, oppressed classes, people’s communities, oppressed nationalities and parliamentary opposition parties are also targeted. 118 activists were brutally murdered in Kashmir alone in 2022. Apart from the central and the state governments of BJP rule, Congress, Trinamool Congress, BJP, Janatadal (U), TRS, Y. Raja Shekhara Reddy Congress, DMK, JMM and the state governments where revisionist alliance is in power in the leadership of CPM are also competing to implement fascism. So, 76 percent of the prisoners in the country are languishing in jails for years together. In Jharkhand, SAC member Comrade Praveer was pronounced death by hanging. In Bihar five tribal and farmer comrades were given the same which the High Court later turned into life imprisonment. The Supreme Court fined a Gandhian social worker Himanshu Kumar who fought for justice for tribal people in a case where 10 people were killed by the armed forces in Gompad of Dandakaranya with Rs. 5 lakhs. The court released 121 tribal people in jail for the past five years in Burkapal case but did not pay compensation for imprisoning them. The court also did not impose fine on the police officers responsible for their imprisonment on false case. This is the class justice that the courts of exploitive classes implement.

Hindutva rulers have been holding grand propaganda campaigns, meetings and seminars for the past one year spending thousands of crores of rupees in the name of ‘Azadi Ka Amrut Mahotsav’ on the occasion of 75^th ‘Independence’ Anniversary of the country. In fact it is 75 years for the transfer of power from the British to the comprador capitalists and landlords on 15^th August 1947. But none of the fundamental problems of the people was solved until now. There is no big change in the lives of the people. The number

of poor people suffering from poverty, hunger deaths and those below the poverty line is increasing. As a result of imperialist corporatisation, imperialist sponsored manipulative industrial and agrarian polices, the country became totally dependent. The governments are trying to keep the people in illusions showing the bubble of development taking place through imperialist corporatisation. In fact, the counter-revolutionary alliance of imperialism, comprador bureaucratic capitalist and big landlord classes is in the way of development of forces of production in the country. It is a big hurdle for stable development of the country. This led the industrial and agriculture sectors into the mire of crisis. Farmers are selling away their lands and turning into tenant farmers or farm labourers. They are migrating to other places when no daily labour is available. Multi-National Companies and comprador capitalists are introducing technologies that deprive employment in different industries and shrinking the organised sector. This deprived the workers and employees of security of employment. The rights that the workers achieved through struggle were trampled. Fascist offensive of the government armed forces is on the rise on people in struggle. The country is being militarised. There is no fundamental freedom and independence in this country said to be the biggest democracy in the world. Right to speak, right to meet, to form an organisation, to protest, to education, to food, to employment, to residence and even right to live do not exist. The Acts and directive principles of Constitution are not bothered. Goebbels Modi untiringly propagates showing the 3 trillion dollars of Gross National Product gained basing on technologies that increase unemployment and poverty as the development of the country. If the development was true, why do the people’s lives turn terrible with lack of food, shelter, clothing, drinking water, education, health, land, irrigation and employment? Why are crores of people deprived of food even once a day? Why are there no kind of political rights including the right to protest in this ‘democratic’ country?

In Modi’s view, development is nothing but to increase imperialist neo-colonial exploitation and comprador capitalist, feudal exploitation. Therefore, inviting ‘new India’ that the Hindutva rulers in the leadership of Modi are speaking of as a part of ‘Azadi Ka Amrut Mahotsav’ is to hand over

the country to imperialist Multi-National Companies. It means to find the big murderers and corrupt officials not guilty and protect them. It means to crush the voice of prominent people’s leaders and indefinitely imprison them. The innocent shall be found guilty. It will be a crime to take up social activities, to fight for human rights and to speak truth. The lives of Muslims, tribal, Dalit people and women shall have no value. Suffocating the tribal people’s lives who cannot live without hills and forests to hand over the necessary land, electricity, valuable metallic elements, water and timber to the imperialist and comprador corporate masters will be justified. Attacks, harassment, tortures and taking the lives of the innocent shall continue. This is the actual character of ‘new India’. ‘Agnipath’ scheme that saffronises and fascises Indian Armies had been adopted to achieve new India. The four lions cruelly stretching its fangs being fixed on the top of the new Parliament building built by TATA Company as a part of the Central Vista project of the government shall become an indication of this fascist offensive. Its mouths reveal the idea to turn the country into a land of war mongers. Oppressed people, sections and nationalities can breathe freely through emancipating the semi-colonial, semi- feudal India from the Hindutva comprador ruling classes that are enslaved to the imperialist neo-colonialists. Only then genuine new India, the people’s democratic India, the New Democratic India shall come into being.

Dear Comrades and People!

The various oppressed classes, sections and nationalities shall continue to make class struggle, democratic struggles, nationality liberation struggles and revolutions as long as exploitation, oppression, suppression and discrimination continue. The ruling classes and their state instigate the people to rebel by making massacres, atrocities and insulting them. Therefore the ruling classes or their state can never permanently stop revolutions. Our party must have the initiative to search for paths to overcome the unfavourable aspects by totally utilising the present favourable objective conditions with a Marxist understanding and unwavering confidence in social revolutions. We must realise the particular favourable aspect in each place. In order to withstand the enemy offensive, we have to efficiently utilise the favourable conditions, rectify the weaknesses and mistakes and have the initiative. We

must enlighten the people politically and develop class struggles and people’s struggles. Marx and Engels handed over the revolutionary theory of ‘Marxism’ to the world proletariat and the toiling masses of all the countries. Lenin and Stalin built the Bolshevik party invincible and steeled, accomplished Socialist revolution and established Socialist state. Mao proved how to serve the people, how to establish the New Democratic State-Socialism and how to make Cultural Revolution to preserve it. Communist party leadership must make large scale mass work in order to establish close relations with the people and create flames of class struggle. Without enlightening the people of oppressed classes, sections and nationalities politically and without igniting the flames of class struggle, the Party-PLGA-United Front shall not strengthen. Revolution shall not be successful. International proletarian tasks shall not be fulfilled militantly. Without people’s retaliation-armed retaliation and People’s War according to the aspirations of the people, people’s mobilisation and struggles and against the enemy offensive, we cannot preserve any of the people’s victories. We can accomplish New Democratic Revolution with the axle of Armed Agrarian Revolution only by destructing the semi-colonial, semi- feudal society through Protracted People’s War. Only thus we can establish New Democratic India without exploitation, oppression, suppression and discrimination. Let us step forth firmly with this understanding and self- confidence!

• Work with the objective to develop Dandakaranya, Bihar- Jharkhand, East Bihar-North East Jharkhand into liberated areas!
• Strengthen mass base!
• Strengthen the Party, PLGA and Revolutionary people’s organs!
• Intensify anti-imperialist, anti-comprador bureaucratic capitalist, anti-feudal class struggle!
• Expand-intensify guerrilla war-people’s war!
• Defeat the strategic ‘SAMADHAN’-Prahar offensive of the enemy! Advance the revolutionary movement!

• Build militant struggles against Hindutva Fascism!
• Not fake ‘new India’! We want New Democratic India!
• Long live proletarian internationalism!
• Long live Marxism-Leninism-Maoism!
• Long live Communist Party of India (Maoist)

Writers, Artists, Human Rights Activists and Well-known Personalities. Demand Protection of Human Rights and Livelihood of the Local Villagers of Dhinkia, Odisha

Press Release 16 Sep 2022

The South Korean Company POSCO backed out from Odisha due to a long struggle of the local communities. However, the Odisha state Government is allowing Jindal to take over the lands and livelihood of the same local villagers. The struggle for the protection of local resources, livelihood, human rights and environment is going on.

The state Government has unleashed severe repressive methods on the activists and local villagers, instead of solving  the problems of people. The Jindal-POSCO Pratirodh Committee, which is spearheading the struggle of the local communities against such severe repression has demanded to release all prisoners immediately and withdrawal of Jindhal, the company which is taking over their lands.

In this context, many writers, artists, human rights activists, academicians, organisations and many well known personalities have demanded withdrawal of Jindhal, protection of the lands and environment of the local villagers and release of the activist prisoners from jail, through a petition to the President of India. They have appealed to the civil society to widen this campaign by circulating the petition and endorsing the same.

The petition can be endorsed through the following link: https://www.change.org/IStandWithDhinkia

We also appeal to you to forward this petition to your contacts and networks in social media requesting for further endorsements.

Petition:

To,

Hon’ble Draupadi Murmu,

President of India.

Respected Madam,

We, the following human rights activists, artists, writers, people’s movements, academicians, cultural personalities, and social organizations, would like to bring to your kind notice the oppression let loose by the Government of Odisha on the people of Dhinkia of Odisha since the last 17 years. This is by holding the sword of displacement almost continually over their heads, by harassing them for protesting, by denying them right to peaceful existence and untroubled perusal of their lives which any govt. is duty bound to ensure to citizens. The Odisha Govt. is blatantly violating their democratic and human rights, including making large scale arrests. There is incarceration of local activists in jail on trumped up charges, restrictions on the right of village people to peacefully protest against their threatened displacement while allowing free movement of and threats to local people by goons of companies. The following are a few key points which are elaborated with the facts.

In 2005, the South Korean steel-making company POSCO was allowed by the State Govt. (BJD) & Central Government (UPA) – despite the unwillingness of the villagers of Dhinkia and nearby locality – to establish its project by taking over their lands. The local cultivation is betel vines, which ensured prosperity and contentment to the local peasantry and big revenue to the Govt. by export of the leaves.The State Government is still run by Mr. Naveen Pattnaik, leader of the ruling party the BJD, which  was ruling the state at that time also. The Odisha state Government deployed its state agencies to grab the land forcefully from the native villagers.To safeguard their ages long possession (of more than 100 years) over the lands and traditional livelihood, the villagers started protesting against the proposed project in masses under the banner of POSCO Pratirodh Sangram Samiti (PPSS).

The State Government being intolerant & furious due to the peaceful yet strong protest against the proposed project, misused its law enforcement agencies against its own people by framing false charges and thus registering more than 200 FIRs which are still pending against hundreds of villagers of Dhinkia for the anti POSCO movement. The conspiracy of the administration, Company & its goons and police brutality then, resulted in the loss of 5 precious lives from Dhinkia Panchayat. Even in the aftermath, the local people remained deeply traumatized, leading even to suicides.

Meanwhile, in the forcibly acquired areas, betel vines, fish ponds, paddy fields were destroyed and other traditional livelihoods were lost. However the protest lasted more than 8 years and ultimately POSCO backed out. People hoped this would bring back long awaited harmony in that area.

But again the State Government (BJD) allowed another project from a company named Jindal Steel Works (JSW). This time, in 2019, there was even more aggression against the unwillingness of the local people. With the same approach by the state Government led by the same Chief Minister Mr. Naveen Pattnaik, there was forceful acquisition of land using state agencies. However this time the approach of the police was very rough and they didn’t spare even women, children and the elderly. The worst police action, which the entire world witnessed, was on 14th January 2022. It was broadcast and published in all forms of news all over the world. The visuals were so disturbing that it baffled the entire country.

Moreover the Governments, both the State (BJD) and the Central (BJP/NDA), ignored the anomalies in the Report provided by JSW to the Environmental Ministry and the Ministry approved the Environmental Clearance ignoring those anomalies. In the process of acquiring the land, so far almost 100 police cases have been registered since 2020, 50-60 people arrested and few released later on bail, though the leader of the Jindal-POSCO Pratirodh Committee (JPPC) Mr. Debendra Swain has been kept in prison since Jan. 14th 2022 along with some other protestors. The protest and its movement have been subjected to police brutality and inhuman torture by Government agencies. Dhinkia village and other nearby villages have already been severely affected due to effects of rapid industrialization in Paradip by either establishment of new industries or upgradation of the existing industries. These effects have already caused loss of lives and livelihoods of people of nearby villages due to exposure to natural disasters caused by environmental & climate degradation and injustice.

Needless to say that the present invasion of Jindal on the resources of the local communities is also a blatant violation of the Forest Rights Act (FRA), since this law recognizes the rights of the local communities and other forest dwellers.

In this context, we appeal to you to intervene so that the protests of Dhinkia villagers to save their Land, Lives & Livelihoods are considered legitimate and to ensure that the Governments (both Union & State) act immediately. We therefore request you to take the following steps immediately for the welfare of the local people, environment and precious human rights of the local villagers.

1. Cancel the proposed JSW project at Dhinkia.
2. Stop police brutality against the villagers of Dhinkia and targeting of the protestors by all means.
3. Cancel the Forest Clearance given to JSW and return the Forest land to villagers as per Law.
4. Cancel the Environmental Clearance granted in favor of the proposed project.
5. Settle the forest rights of the people in an unbiased manner without hostile environment as per Forest Rights Act (FRA), 2006.
6. Provide the legitimate land records to the landless people of Dhinkia.
7. Take strict action against the police officials involved in police brutalities that caused physical & mental trauma to thousands of villagers including children, women and elders.
8. Quash all the false & fabricated cases registered against the villagers starting from protests against POSCO to JSW which are roughly around 300.
9. Release all the protesters including their leader Mr. Debendra Swain from prison.

Hamburg’da Hindistan’lı Politik Tutsaklarla Dayanışma Eylemi

HAMBURG|14.09.2022|Upotudak’ın Hindistan’daki Siyasi Tutsaklara Yönelik eylem kararı almasıyla Hamburg’ta Hindistan Konsolosluğu önünde bir eylem gerçekleştirildi. Upotudak’ın bildirilerinin dağıtıldığı eylemde dövizlerle siyasi tutsaklara yönelik baskılara ve artan saldırılara dikkat çekildi. DGBA desteklediği eyleme ATİF Hamburg taraftarları yanı sıra AGİF ve yerli Anti-Faşist kurumdan temsilciler katıldılar.
Eylemde yapılan konuşmalarda Upotudak’ın bildirileri okundu. Çalınan marşlarla beraber eylem sloganlarla son buldu. Eylemde her hangi bir olumsuzluk yaşanmadı.

Hindistan’da ki Politik Tutsaklarla Dayanışma Eylemi

HOLLANDA|14.09.2022| Hindistan devleti son yıllarda çıkardığı yeni yasalarla halka karşı faşist saldırıları tırmandırmış durumdadır. ATİK ve UPOTUDAK çağrısı üzerine bizlerde HTİF taraftaları ve dostları olarak Hindistan konsolosluğu önünde „Hindistan’daki Siyasi Tutsaklara Özgürlük!“ eylemi gerçekleştirdik.

Hollandaca sürece dair okunan bildirinin ardından sloganlarımızla Hindistan’daki siyasi tutsaklara özgürlük şiarını haykırdık. Hindistan devrimci marşı „Lal Salam’ı çaldık. Konsolosluktan eylemi ve eylemcilerin kamera ve fotosunu çekmeleri sürekli göze çarptı. Polise şikayet etmeleri sonucu, eylemin sonuna doğru 2 polis otosunun gelmesiyle konsolosluktan dışarıya çıkarak yanımıza gelen konsolosluk çalışanı iki kişi, „Kimsiniz siz?“ diye soru sormalarına karşı biz Türkiyeli ve Kürdistanlı devrimcileriz dedik. Sonrasında „Hindistanda tutuklunuz mu var?“ diye sorularına karşı „Hayır yok, tüm politik tutsaklar bizimdir. Biz enternasyonal devrimcileriz“ cevabını aldıktan sonra konsolosluğa geri döndüler.

struggle for the release of all political prisoners!

The CMPA strongly condemns the murder of comrade Pandu Naroti, which took place on August 25, 2022, at the age of 33 in the Modi government’s fascism prison.

In 2013, Comrade Naroti was arrested and sent to prison for his association with the Communist Party of India (Maoist), and after that, along with the former master of Delhi University and the leader of the Revolutionary Democratic Front, G.N. Saibaba, and several others of their associates were sentenced to life imprisonment and died this year due to the denial of medical treatment in the prison of Modi’s fascist regime.

Last year comrade Fr. Stan Swamy one of the Indian Adivasi rights activists died due to illness in Modi’s fascist prison.

The fault of all the Maoist political prisoners and the democratic figures of the Indian revolutionaries is that they have dedicated their lives to continuous and unceasing struggle against a destructive and reactionary system which exploits, oppresses, tramples and sucks the blood of hundreds of millions of unfortunate people of the earth. They have dedicated their lives to the struggle against class, gender, national and imperialist oppression. They have dedicated their lives to fighting against a system that is directly responsible for the deaths of 6,000 children every day. Children who die due to hunger, poverty and contracting communicable diseases. A system that has evicted tens of millions of Indian people from their habitats and destroyed their means of livelihood in order to regulate the extraction of profits for multinational companies.

Yes! The fault of all Maoist political prisoners and democratic figures of Indian revolutionaries is to think, imagine and fight for a better world where all these atrocities will be consigned to history. But for India’s reactionary government, which shamelessly claims to be the world’s “largest democracy,” it is a real fault. Such a situation explains the fact that in an asymmetrical society divided into classes, castes and genders, democracy for all people is a ridiculous show and a cover to cover the ugly reality of the system of exploitation and oppression. The truth is that this largest democracy is nothing but a political machine of violence and repression to ensure the viper-like and parasitic dominance of the comprador and feudal bourgeoisie in India.

Let’s not let the reactionary government of India escape from the responsibility of these crimes!

The India-Afghanistan People’s War Support Committee calls on all revolutionary personalities and organizations, political activists, social justice seekers and revolutionary masses to fight and resist the crimes of the Indian reactionary government and expose these crimes; Defend all the Maoist political prisoners and the democratic figures of the Indian revolutionaries who are imprisoned by the Indian fascist regime with all their strength and pressure the Indian government to allow political prisoners access to the health care they need and demand the immediate release of all Maoist political prisoners and democratic figures of Indian revolutionaries.

Let’s not let there be any disruption in the solidarity with the people’s revolutionary war in India and the struggle of the revolutionary people of India and in the fight for the release of all political prisoners.

We join the internationalist call for the release of all political prisoners of the fascist government of India. We fully support the internationalist joint action week planned by the International Committee in Support of India’s People’s War from September 13-19, 2022 for the release of political prisoners and to demand an immediate end to drone strikes in India.

Long live the people’s revolutionary war in India!

Long live the revolutionary masses of India!

Long live the brave comrades of the revolution who are imprisoned

Death to the reactionary government of India!

Death to Modi’s fascist regime!

Ministro degli Interni e Questura di Roma vietano la manifestazione all’Ambasciata indiana con motivi pretestuosi. Ma la manifestazione si tiene ugualmente: 17 settembre a Piazza dell’Esquilino

Alemania Kundgebung in Hamburg am 17. September: Unterstützt den Volkskrieg in Indien!

Freedom for Political Prisoners in India!

The Indian state has escalated fascist attacks against the people with the new laws enacted in recent years. The arrests and massacres of workers, peasants, students, women and organisations of different faiths who oppose the oppression and exploitation of the state and use their democratic rights by organising protests are increasing every day. Many leaders of democratic movements are arrested and sentenced to life imprisonment. 

The political defence of those arrested is prevented, the lawyers defending them are arrested and threatened with death. Lawyers are prevented from taking the cases of political prisoners, Muslims, Christians and Delites, and lawyers who do not comply are threatened with arrest. 

Attacks on the pioneers of social and political struggle are intensifying!

With the coming to power of the Modi government, fascist attacks on the people have intensified. There is a great resistance against these attacks in all sections of the people. Strikes of workers and peasants, street actions of women and youth, actions organised by Muslims, Christians and Delites against exclusion and contempt are growing every day. Fascist attacks against the leaders of these actions are also intensifying. Many leading workers, writers and intellectuals are being detained and sentenced to life imprisonment. The rights of arrested prisoners, especially women prisoners, are being violated, oppressed and tortured.

By arresting intellectuals and writers, scientists and pioneering activists who have been prominent in the democratic struggle of the people, such as RDF (Revolutionary Democratic Front) leader Professor Saibaba, revolutionary writer Varavara Rao, Professor Anand Teltumbde, the people’s struggle for democratic rights and freedom is being tried to be prevented. Although many of those arrested are seriously ill, their treatment is being prevented. Professor Saibaba is one of them. Since Saibaba is ninety per cent disabled and unable to meet his daily needs, he is not released despite all attempts by his family and lawyers, and is almost left to die. 

The attacks against women prisoners in prisons are even more extensive. Sexual violence against women has become a part of daily life and no one opposes it. Women’s hygienic needs are not met and feudal patriarchal rules are imposed. 

We call on you to support the struggle of Political prisoners in India!

We call on Europe to be a voice in the campaign launched between 13-19 September to put an end to the attacks on workers, peasants, students, professors, religious minorities, Delitese people, women and other oppressed groups in India. We call on you to support the just struggle for an end to the attacks on the people by the Indian state and the imperialist powers that support it. We call on all political prisoners in India to raise their voices through joint actions for the fulfilment of their basic rights and for the end of sexual violence and torture, especially against women. Let’s join the protests we will hold in front of Indian consulates and embassies in Europe on 13 – 19 September and embrace the struggle of the prisoners and the resisting people.  

Political Prisoners in India Must Be Released Unconditionally!

Prisoners’ Basic Needs Must Be Met!

Sexual Harassment of Women Prisoners Must Stop!

Freiheit für politische Gefangene in Indien!

Der indische Staat hat mit den in den letzten Jahren erlassenen neuen Gesetzen die faschistischen Angriffe auf die Bevölkerung verschärft. Die Verhaftungen und Massaker an Arbeitern, Bauern, Studenten, Frauen und Organisationen verschiedener Glaubensrichtungen, die sich der Unterdrückung und Ausbeutung durch den Staat widersetzen und ihre demokratischen Rechte durch die Organisation von Protesten wahrnehmen, nehmen täglich zu. Viele Führer demokratischer Bewegungen werden verhaftet und zu lebenslangen Haftstrafen verurteilt. 

Die politische Verteidigung der Verhafteten wird verhindert, die Anwälte, die sie verteidigen, werden verhaftet und mit dem Tod bedroht. Anwälte werden daran gehindert, die Fälle von politischen Gefangenen, Muslimen, Christen und Delites zu übernehmen, und Anwälte, die sich nicht daran halten, werden mit Verhaftung bedroht. 

Die Angriffe auf die Anführer des sozialen und politischen Kampfes verschärfen sich!

Mit der Machtübernahme der Modi-Regierung haben die faschistischen Angriffe auf die Bevölkerung zugenommen. Der Widerstand gegen diese Angriffe ist in allen Teilen der Bevölkerung groß. Die Streiks von Arbeitern und Bauern, die Straßenaktionen von Frauen und Jugendlichen, die von Muslimen, Christen und Delites organisierten Aktionen gegen Ausgrenzung und Verachtung nehmen jeden Tag zu. Auch die faschistischen Angriffe gegen die Anführer dieser Aktionen nehmen zu. Viele führende Arbeiter, Schriftsteller und Intellektuelle werden inhaftiert und zu lebenslangen Haftstrafen verurteilt. Die Rechte von inhaftierten Gefangenen, insbesondere von weiblichen Gefangenen, werden verletzt, unterdrückt und gefoltert.

Durch die Verhaftung von Intellektuellen und Schriftstellern, Wissenschaftlern und bahnbrechenden Aktivisten, die sich im demokratischen Kampf des Volkes hervorgetan haben, wie der Führer der Revolutionären Demokratischen Front (RDF), Professor Saibaba, der revolutionäre Schriftsteller Varavara Rao und Professor Anand Teltumbde, wird versucht, den Kampf des Volkes für demokratische Rechte und Freiheit zu verhindern. Obwohl viele der Festgenommenen schwer krank sind, wird ihre Behandlung verhindert. Professor Saibaba ist einer von ihnen. Saibaba, der zu neunzig Prozent behindert ist und nicht in der Lage ist, seine täglichen Bedürfnisse zu befriedigen, wird trotz aller Bemühungen seiner Familie und seiner Anwälte nicht freigelassen und ist dem Tod nahe. 

Die Angriffe auf inhaftierte Frauenin den Gefängnissen sind sogar noch umfangreicher. Sexuelle Gewalt gegen Frauen ist zu einem Teil des täglichen Lebens geworden, dem sich niemand widersetzt. Die hygienischen Bedürfnisse der Frauen werden nicht erfüllt, und es herrschen feudal-patriarchalische Regeln.  

Wir rufen Sie dazu auf, den Kampf der politischen Gefangenen in Indien zu unterstützen!

Wir rufen Europa auf, sich an der vom 13. bis 19. September laufenden Kampagne zu beteiligen, um den Angriffen auf Arbeiter, Bauern, Studenten, Professoren, religiöse Minderheiten, Delitese, Frauen und andere unterdrückte Gruppen in Indien ein Ende zu setzen. Wir rufen Sie auf, den gerechten Kampf für ein Ende der Angriffe des indischen Staates und der imperialistischen Mächte, die ihn unterstützen, auf die Bevölkerung zu unterstützen. Wir rufen alle politischen Gefangenen in Indien auf, ihre Stimme durch gemeinsame Aktionen für die Verwirklichung ihrer Grundrechte und für ein Ende von sexueller Gewalt und Folter, insbesondere gegen Frauen, zu erheben. Schließen wir uns den Protesten an, die wir am 13.-19. September vor den indischen Konsulaten und Botschaften in Europa abhalten werden, und unterstützen wir den Kampf der Gefangenen und des widerständigen Volkes.  

Politische Gefangene in Indien müssen bedingungslos freigelassen werden!

Die Grundbedürfnisse der Häftlinge müssen erfüllt werden!

Sexuelle Belästigung von inhaftierte Frauen muss aufhören!

Liberté pour les prisonniers politiques en Inde !

L’État indien a intensifié les attaques fascistes contre le peuple avec les nouvelles lois promulguées ces dernières années. Les arrestations et les massacres contre les travailleurs, les paysans, les étudiants, les femmes  et les organisations de différentes confessions qui s’opposent à l’oppression et à l’exploitation de l’État et utilisent leurs droits démocratiques en organisant des manifestations augmentent chaque jour. De nombreux dirigeants de mouvements démocratiques sont arrêtés et condamnés à la réclusion à perpétuité. 

Les défenses politiques des détenus sont entravées. Les avocats qui les défendent sont arrêtés et menacés de mort. Les avocats ne sont pas autorisés à prendre en charge les affaires de prisonniers politiques, de musulmans, de chrétiens et de Dalits (Intouchables), et ceux qui ne s’y conforment pas sont menacés d’arrestation par les avocats.

Les attaques contre les pionniers de la lutte sociale et politique s’intensifient !

Avec l’arrivée au pouvoir du gouvernement Modi, les attaques fascistes contre le peuple se sont intensifiées. Il y a une grande résistance contre ces attaques de toutes les couches sociales de la population. Les grèves ouvrières et paysannes, les manifestations de rue des femmes et des jeunes, les protestations des musulmans, des chrétiens et des Dalits contre l’exclusion et le mépris, se multiplient de jour en jour. Les attaques fascistes contre les pionniers éminents de ces actions s’intensifient également. De nombreux ouvriers, écrivains et intellectuels de premier plan sont détenus et condamnés à la réclusion à perpétuité. Les droits des prisonniers arrêtés, en particulier des femmes détenues sont violées, des pressions et des tortures sont appliquées.

Des intellectuels et des écrivains, des scientifiques et des militants de premier plan qui se sont imposés dans la lutte démocratique populaire, tels que le leader du RDF (Front démocratique révolutionnaire), le professeur Saibaba, l’écrivain révolutionnaire Varavara Rao, le professeur Anand Teltumbde, sont arrêtés. L’idée est d’empêcher le peuple de lutter pour les droits démocratiques et la liberté. Bien que de nombreux détenus soient gravement malades, leur traitement est entravé. Le professeur Saibaba est l’un d’entre eux.Handicapé à quatre-vingt-dix pour cent et incapable de subvenir à ses propres besoins quotidiens, malgré tous les efforts de sa famille et de ses avocats, il n’est pas libéré et on le laisse presque mourir. 

Les attaques contre les prisonnières sont encore plus nombreuses. La violence sexuelle à l’égard des femmes fait désormais partie de la vie quotidienne et personne ne s’y oppose. Les besoins hygiéniques des femmes ne sont pas respectés  et des règles patriarcales féodales sont imposées. 

Nous vous appelons à soutenir la lutte des prisonniers politiques en Inde !

Nous appelons depuis l’Europe à faire entendre la voix dans la campagne lancée du 13 au 19 septembre pour mettre fin aux attaques contre les travailleurs, les paysans, les étudiants, les professeurs, les minorités religieuses, les Dalits, les femmes et les autres groupes opprimés en Inde. Et aussi  à soutenir la lutte juste pour mettre fin aux attaques contre le peuple par l’État indien et les puissances impérialistes qui le soutiennent. Respecter les droits fondamentaux de tous les prisonniers politiques en Inde, en particulier mettre fin à la violence sexuelle et à la torture contre les femmes. Rejoignons les manifestations que nous organiserons devant les consulats et ambassades indiens en Europe, le 13 – 19 septembre et embrassons la lutte des prisonniers et des résistants.  

Les prisonniers politiques en Inde doivent être libérés sans condition !

Les besoins fondamentaux des prisonniers doivent être respectés !

Les violences sexuelles contre les femmes détenues doit cesser !

Vrijheid voor politieke gevangenen in India!

De Indiase staat heeft de fascistische aanvallen op de bevolking opgevoerd met de nieuwe wetten die de laatste jaren zijn uitgevaardigd. De arrestaties en bloedbaden van arbeiders, boeren, studenten, vrouwen en organisaties van verschillende geloofsovertuigingen die zich verzetten tegen de onderdrukking en uitbuiting van de staat en gebruik maken van hun democratische rechten door het organiseren van protesten, nemen met de dag toe. Veel leiders van democratische bewegingen worden gearresteerd en veroordeeld tot levenslange gevangenisstraf. 

De politieke verdediging van de gearresteerden wordt verhinderd, de advocaten die hen verdedigen worden gearresteerd en met de dood bedreigd. Advocaten wordt verboden de zaken van politieke gevangenen, moslims, christenen en delieten te behartigen, en advocaten die zich daar niet aan houden worden met arrestatie bedreigd. 

De aanvallen op de pioniers van de sociale en politieke strijd worden heviger!

Met het aan de macht komen van de regering Modi zijn de fascistische aanvallen op het volk geïntensiveerd. Er is een groot verzet tegen deze aanvallen in alle lagen van de bevolking. Stakingen van arbeiders en boeren, straatacties van vrouwen en jongeren, acties georganiseerd door moslims, christenen en delieten tegen uitsluiting en minachting nemen met de dag toe. De fascistische aanvallen op de leiders van deze acties nemen ook toe. Vele vooraanstaande arbeiders, schrijvers en intellectuelen worden vastgehouden en tot levenslange gevangenisstraffen veroordeeld. De rechten van gearresteerde gevangenen, met name vrouwelijke gevangenen, worden geschonden, onderdrukt en gemarteld.

Door de arrestatie van intellectuelen en schrijvers, wetenschappers en baanbrekende activisten die een prominente rol hebben gespeeld in de democratische strijd van het volk, zoals RDF-leider (Revolutionair Democratisch Front) professor Saibaba, de revolutionaire schrijver Varavara Rao, professor Anand Teltumbde, wordt getracht de strijd van het volk voor democratische rechten en vrijheid te verhinderen. Hoewel veel van de gearresteerden ernstig ziek zijn, wordt hun behandeling verhinderd. Professor Saibaba is een van hen. Aangezien Saibaba voor 90% gehandicapt is en niet in staat is in zijn dagelijkse behoeften te voorzien, wordt hij ondanks alle pogingen van zijn familie en advocaten niet vrijgelaten en wordt hij bijna aan zijn lot overgelaten. 

De aanvallen tegen vrouwelijke gevangenen in gevangenissen zijn nog omvangrijker. Seksueel geweld tegen vrouwen is een onderdeel van het dagelijks leven geworden en niemand verzet zich ertegen. Aan de hygiënische behoeften van vrouwen wordt niet voldaan en er worden feodale patriarchale regels opgelegd. 

Wij roepen u op om de strijd van de politieke gevangenen in India te steunen!

Wij roepen Europa op zijn stem te laten horen in de campagne die van 13 tot 19 september van start gaat om een einde te maken aan de aanvallen op arbeiders, boeren, studenten, professoren, religieuze minderheden, Delitianen, vrouwen en andere onderdrukte groepen in India. Wij doen een beroep op u om de rechtvaardige strijd te steunen voor het beëindigen van de aanvallen op het volk door de Indiase staat en de imperialistische machten die hem steunen. Wij roepen alle politieke gevangenen in India op om door middel van gezamenlijke acties hun stem te verheffen voor de verwezenlijking van hun fundamentele rechten en voor het beëindigen van seksueel geweld en martelingen, in het bijzonder tegen vrouwen. Laten we ons aansluiten bij de protesten die we op 13 – 19 september zullen houden voor de Indiase consulaten en ambassades in Europa en de strijd van de gevangenen en het verzetsvolk omhelzen.  

Politieke gevangenen in India moeten onvoorwaardelijk vrijgelaten worden!

In de basisbehoeften van gevangenen moet worden voorzien!

Seksuele intimidatie van vrouwelijke gevangenen moet stoppen!

Hindistan’daki Siyasi Tutsaklara Özgürlük!

Hindistan devleti son yıllarda çıkardığı yeni yasalarla halka karşı faşist saldırıları tırmandırmış durumdadır. Devletin baskı ve sömürüsüne karşı çıkan ve eylemler örgütleyerek demokratik haklarını kullanan; işçi, köylü, öğrenci, kadınlar ve farklı inanç örgütlerine yönelik tutuklama ve katletme tutumu her gün daha da çoğalmaktadır. Birçok demokratik hareketin yönetici tutuklanıp, ömür boyu hapis cezasına çarptırılmaktadırlar. 

Tutuklananların siyasi savunmaları engellenmekte, bunları savunan hukukçular tutuklanmakta ve ölümle tehdit edilmektedir. Avukatların; siyası tutsakları, Müslüman, Hristiyan ve Delitlerin davalarını almaları engellenmekte ve buna uymayanlar hukukçularda tutuklanma tehditleriyle karşı karşıya kalmaktadırlar. 

Sosyal ve siyasi mücadelede öne çıkan öncülere yönelik saldırılar yoğunlaşmaktadır!

Modi hükümetinin iş başına gelmesiyle, halka yönelik faşist saldırılar daha da yoğunlaşmıştır. Bu saldırılara karşı halkın tüm kesiminde büyük bir direniş verilmektedir. İşçi ve köylü grevleri, kadın ve gençlerin sokak eylemleri, Müslüman, Hristiyan ve Delitlerin dışlanma ve horlanmaya karşı örgütledikleri eylemler her gün büyümektedir. Bu eylemlerde öne çıkan öncülere yönelik faşist saldırılar da yoğunlaşmaktadır. Birçok öncü işçi, yazar, aydın göz altına alınarak, ömür boyu hapis cezalarına çarptırılmaktadır. Tutuklanan mahkumların, özellikle kadın mahkumların hakları ihlal edilmekte, baskı ve işkence uygulanmaktadır.

RDF (Devrimci Demokratik Cephe) lideri Profesör Saibaba, Devrimci yazar Varavara Rao, Profesör Anand Teltumbde gibi halkın demokratik mücadelesinde öne çıkmış aydın ve yazarlar, bilim insanları ve öncü aktivistler tutuklanarak halkın demokratik hak ve özgürlük mücadelesi engellenmeye çalışılmaktadır. Tutuklananların birçoğu ağır hasta olmasına rağmen, tedavileri engellenmektedir. Profesör Saibaba bunlardan birisidir. Saibaba; yüzde doksan engelli ve kendi günlük ihtiyaçlarını karşılamayacak durumda olmasından ötürü, ailesi ve avukatlarının tüm girişimlerine rağmen serbest bırakılmayarak, adeta ölüme terk edilmek istenmektedir. 

Hapishanelerdeki kadın tutsaklara yönelik saldırılar daha da kapsamlıdır. Kadınlara yönelik cinsel şiddet günlük yaşamın bir parçası haline gelmiş ve kimse buna karşı çıkmamaktadır. Kadınların hijyenik ihtiyaçları karşılanmamakta ve feodal ataerkil kurallar dayatılmaktadır.  

Hindistan’daki Politik tutsakların mücadelesini desteklemeye çağırıyoruz!

Hindistan’da işçilere, köylülere, öğrencilere, profesörlere, dini azınlıklara, Delit halkına, kadınlara ve diğer ezilen kesimlere yönelik saldırılara son verilesi için 13-19 Eylül tarihleri arasında başlatılan kampanya, Avrupa’dan da bir ses olmaya çağırıyoruz. Hindistan devletinin ve onun destekçisi olan emperyalist güçlerin halka yönelik saldırılarına son vermesine için gelişen haklı mücadeleye destek olmaya çağırıyoruz. Hindistan’daki tüm politik tutsakların temel haklarının karşılanması, özellikle kadınlara yönelik cinsel şiddetin ve işkencenin son bulması için ortak eylemlerle ses olmaya çağırıyoruz. Avrupa’da Hindistan konsolosluklarının-Elçiliklerinin önünde 13-19 Eylül’de yapacağımız eylemlere, katılarak tutsakların ve direnen halkın mücadelesini sahiplenelim.  

Hindistan’daki Siyasi Tutsaklar Koşulsuz Serbest Bırakılmalıdır!

Tutukluların Temel İhtiyaçları Karşılanmalıdır!

In some parts of the world two important international campaigns have been developed to honor the martyrs of the Indian revolution and in support of the week of martyrs from July 28 to August 3 and in occasion of the International Day of Struggle of indigenous peoples on August 9.
These two campaigns, launched by the Communist Party of India (Maoist), were joined and developed by the International Committee to Support the People’s War in India -under really difficult conditions due to the work of imperialist rule and the silence and complicity of the revisionist and reformist forces, converging with the interests of imperialism and reactionary governments in the imperialist countries as well as in the countries oppressed by imperialism.

On this occasion, initiatives aimed at reaching the broad masses were developed in Galicia, Colombia and Italy.
In other countries solidarity, closeness and support for the week of the martyrs was felt strong, with the publishing of the documents from Indian comrades in all forms, allowing them to reach the militants of the Marxist-Leninist-Maoist, revolutionary and anti-imperialist organizations in various countries of the world from Latin America to Europe, from Asia to Tunisia.

Certainly on this front the campaign had to deal with the serious work of division and confusion by some forces which, while supporting the people’s war, reduce the support into a self-propaganda without taking up the requests and indications of the Indian comrades.

These two days were also a preparation for the new international week for the release of political prisoners and against the drone bombing by the fascist Modi’s regime, scheduled from 13 to 19 September.

The International Committee calls all communist, revolutionary, anti-imperialist forces, the democratic forces, the forces in defense of the human rights of peoples, intellectuals, artists, legal professionals to participate in this week, each according to the respective autonomy and possibilities.

With the awareness and understanding that this week is part of the more general struggle against imperialism, against the imperialist war that currently has its epicenter in Ukraine, against the oppression and repression of peoples in every part of the world, and for the release of all political prisoners locked up in the black jails of imperialism and of all the states and governments its servants.
The building of a great international and internationalist movement on this is an important and delimitating task for all the forces that fight imperialism and fight for the national and social liberation of the proletarians and peoples in every country.

The campaign in Italy,
The International Committee choose the path not of symbolic self-propaganda initiatives, but that of reaching the workers, the large masses and the organizations in the field of anti-imperialism.
An intense activity of contacts, of sending the PCI (M) document and of informing the great initiatives that took place in India to honor the martyrs of the revolution, to strengthen the largest people’s war in the world, considered by the Modi regime and mainly by US imperialism the first enemy in the world.
In various large cities and realities of struggle, the appeal of Indian comrades arrived with tireless activism.
In some cities, such as Taranto, large banners and portraits have appeared in the main streets, at the factories, whose owners are Indians – ArcelorMittal – and in the people’s neighborhoods.
A general meeting of the class and combative workers greeted the martyrs week.
The working women, the comrades of the MFPR have continued tirelessly to circulate a slide-show dedicated to the women political prisoners in India, which is gaining ever wider attention in this country by women in struggle and from the feminist movement of all trends.
The Italian also comrades were in the camp, organized by the Turkish workers and families of AGEB in Italy, placing a large banner in the camp.
Once again it was meaningful the celebratory meeting held by Indian immigrated workers in Bergamo, who are exploited by big and small Italian masters and struggle against them organized by the union led by the Maoists, who reaffirmed their indissoluble bond with their brothers, families and the people from which they come and declared their irreducible decision to fight also in Italy for the release of political prisoners in India, joining the international week scheduled for 13/19 September.
The simultaneous posting in some cities of northern and southern Italy of the poster of the International Committee in support of the struggle of indigenous peoples on August 9 had a great qualitative significance.
This action, made in the heart of an imperialist country, educates the proletarians and the masses to build their indispensable unity with the indigenous and poor masses of the world and to understand that their own imperialist governments are responsible for oppression, in order to intensify the struggle against the governments as the highest solidarity that the advanced proletarians can achieve.

The Martyrs Week in Galicia
In Galicia, the Galician Committee for Support of the People’s War in India carried out an intense campaign of agitation and propaganda to the extent of its strength.
On July 25, the day of the Galician Fatherland, one of the most important days in political terms in Galicia, several banners were placed in honor of the Martyrs and the Communist Party of India (Maoist) and an information table was set up on the situation in India and the importance of supporting the people’s war in India.
On July 28, coinciding with the celebration of the birth of Comrade Martin Naya, the 50th Anniversary of the death of Charu Majumdar was commemorated and a sincere and warm red tribute was paid to all the Martyrs of the Revolution in India within the week of celebrations of the Martyrs. The event was held in a Social Center in A Coruña where a large group of popular activists gathered.
Throughout the week, hundreds of posters of the International Committee were put up in all the cities of Galiza.

Activities in support of the People’s War in India in Colombia
Accepting the call to celebrate the week of the martyrs in India and the International Day of the Indigenous Peoples, at the initiative of the Communist Workers’ Union (mlm) and the Revolucion Obrera website, some modest actions were carried out, but with all the internationalist spirit and knowing that solidarity is a path of unity and victory.
Among the actions carried out, posters were put up in Bogotá, Bucaramanga and Medellín, public talks in some Facebook programs both from the Revolucion Obrera website and other mass organizations, spreading of publications, communications through social networks. Tasks carried out with the sincere spirit of helping the masses in Colombia to know and support this advance of the World Proletarian Revolution.
Unfortunately, on August 9, the indigenous peoples in Colombia did not carry out mobilizations claiming their rights; the election of social democratic president Gustavo Petro temporarily put the leadership of many mass organizations in a state of constitutional intoxication, which is why the communique was not printed to be disseminated by that means.
We will be focused and we are ready to participate in the Week of Action for the release of political prisoners and demanding the stop of drone bombings on revolutionary peoples.

Communist Party of the Philippines

September 2, 2022

The Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) extends its hearfelt condolences to the Indian people and the Communist Party of India (Maoist) on the untimely demise of Comrade Pandu Naroti, an Adivasi who stood by the working class, peasants and all oppressed and exploited people of India. We extend our sympathies to his family and friends in Mureweda village, a poor Adivasi community in Gadchiroli district, Maharashtra.

Comrade Naroti died in prison last August 25, at the age of 33, after being denied his rights to proper medical treatment. We are saddened and angered over his the death in the fascist dungeons of the Indian government. We hold the Modi regime directly responsible for his murder by violating his rights while in prison.

Comrade Naroti was arrested in 2013 on accusations of violating India’s Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act after being maliciously associated with the CPI (Maoist). Naroti was sentenced by the Modi regime in 2017 with life imprisonment, along with former Delhi University professor and Revolutionary Democratic Front leader G.N. Saibaba and several others.

His murder is not the first in the hands of the fascist Modi regime. A year ago, 82-year old Adivasi rights advocate Fr. Stan Swamy died of ill health in prison. More deaths can be expected as India’s activists, progressives and advocates continue to be locked up by the regime in jail on false charges.

We join the international call for the release of all political prisoners of the fascist Hindutva government. We express support to the planned Worldwide Action Week, which will be led by the ICSPWI (International Committee to Support the People’s War in India), from September 13 to 19 for the release of political prisoners and demanding a stop to drone attacks in India.

international week of actions 13th/19/th september ICSPWI

Martyr comrade Jatin Das was in the forefront of those who fought against British imperialist
with a spirit of courage, sacrifice and patience. He sacrificed his life during a 63 day hunger-strike along
with Com. Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev and Rajguru.
18th March is observed as an international day of political prisoners. Keeping in with this
tradition, our Party, our Central Regional Bureau CRB pays tribute to all those brave and revolutionary
comrades who sacrificed their lives during their struggle in the jail. We resolve to carry forward their
struggle to fulfil their dreams.
The fascist rule in our country is curtailing people’s civil liberties. Transfer of power in 1947 was
a result of tremendous struggle and sacrifices by Indian people, after, which India’s constitution came
into existence in 1950. In this constitution, some fundamental rights have been promised. But
gradually, they are being eroded. In the fascist rule of hindutva forces, the right of expression of
minimum freedom or protest is being denied. In the Modi regime, working for the rights of the
oppressed and poor and raising question itself is being criminalised. In this Jumla regime, approaching
the courts for justice is being treated as a crime.
On the other hand, to divert the people’s attention from their routine, life and death issues, rulers are
making a show of 75th anniversary of independence, Amrit Mahotsav. In reality, this celebration is
nothing more than an attempt to cover up the dictatorial rule and violence and frenzy of the hard-core
hindutva forces. Our party makes it clear that this is not a symbol of people’s true freedom in any way.
That’s why the central committee of our party has given a call to boycott this program.
13th September is the 93rd Martyr’s day of Com. Yatindra Nath Das (born on 27th October, 1904
and martyred on 13rd September of 1929). Revolutionary Jatin Das was, along with is comrades,
arrested by the British on 14th June 1931. On 13th July 1931, all these comrades began indefinite
hunger-strike in the leadership of Com. Bhagat Singh. The British rulers tried to suppress it. Ultimately,
Com. Jatin Das was martyred after a 63 day hunger-strike. Later on, the Jail administration had to
accept some of their demands. There hasn’t been any perceptible improvement in the condition of our
jails, even after seven and half decades of transfer of power. Even today, lives of those in jai, is tied to
the jail manual prepared by the British is being followed. If we see it properly, we find that our whole
country has become like a jail, in which we are living in very serious conditions.
According to the National Crime Record Bureau, about 4 lakhs 88 thousands people have been
forced into 1,339 jails, whereas their capacity is only 4 lakhs and 14 thousands. Among them, more
than 20 thousands are women, 1,427 children. Out of these, number of under-trials is 3 lakh 78
thousands and 848, which is, 76.1 % of the total jail population. In fact, the Supreme Court has
observed that, there was no need to arrest all these people. Those in jail, aren’t getting even the
minimum of the facilities. Some people have lost their lives due to various illnesses. Many people are
losing their lives because of not getting proper medical treatment. In last 20 years, there have been
1888 custodial deaths. For custodial deaths, 26 constables have been sentenced to imprisonment. But
the higher ups, the leaders and officers, who get such illegal acts done, have remained untouched.
The fact is that, within some limits, our constitution grants the fundamental rights such as, right
to equality (article 14) right to freedom (article 19) right to life (article 21) are applicable to all, be it
convicts or the under-trials. The other laws and acts curtail their rights, their lives and their liberty, but
within some limits, these fundamental rights are applicable for them also. But in the dictatorial regime
today, none of these are followed. On 9th April 2022, the beloved leader of our party, Com. Narmada
died in a hospice centre due to lack of proper treatment. Last year, aged and ailing Father Sten Swamy
was made a victim of institution murder. A way has been found, to kill those, who have toiled for the
masses all their lives. It is a call of the hour that the whole world to denounce these murders.
It is becoming more and more difficult for the under-trials to obtain bail. In these
circumstances, draconian laws are being applied against those who protest to deny them bail are also
being denied bail. In addition to this, there are these draconian laws by the states. This can be
assessed for the fact that Sudha Bharadwaj, a trade-union leader and a leading lawyer, who has been
falsely implicated in the Bheema Koregaon case, got bail, in the 7th attempt. This exposes that to what
extent law is being turned into a joke. Here, we don’t need to separately mention that how many
honourable Justices are there, who are ready to nod their heads to the tune of prosecution’s claims.
11 thousands 18 hundred and 16 cases have been registered under the draconian law UAPA,
since 2010. Out of these, 65 % have been registered in Modi’s regime. This draconian act has been
used, for criticizing ruling party leaders on 405 persons (which include, citizens, leaders of the
opposition parties, students, journalists, cartoonists, writers and intellectuals). From 2018 to 2020,
police has arrested 4690 persons under UAPA from all over the country. In total, during the Modi
regime, UAPA was slapped on 10 thousands and 552 persons, from which, 253 were sentenced for life
imprisonment. These 253 persons have also been convicted by use of every kind of dirty trickery. With
the increase of use of UAPA by 33 % since March 2019, you can understand what kind of situation is
prevailing in this Jumla regime. Indeed, going back 45 years earlier, Justice VR Krishna Iyer had stated
that giving bail is the rule and denial of bail is a . But where is it being applied at the ground level?
One thing that Modi rule is doing is ‘good’. Earlier intellectuals, human rights activists and
constitutionalists, many such people had a deep faith on the illusory facade of the state and
constitution. Through its fascist actions, Modi and company are themselves tearing apart this facade.
Not only this, with his economic and repressive offensive against all classes and sections of the people,
Modi is also hastening the process of unity of the oppressed people. Well done, Modi!
Many under-trials, who obtained bail, are being arrested time and again, just as they come out
of the prison, by slapping fresh false charges against them. And even if someone does get bail orders,
various conditions are being imposed on them and their lives are being played with. Comrades Angela,
Varvararao, Sudha Bharadwaj are bound up with such conditions. Through similar tricks, those who
are convicted are being kept in jail for long periods by applying different sentences, one after another
and not simultaneously. All these cases are examples of fascist state repression. In these atrocious
conditions, how can we even imagine about the application of legal provisions calling for helping them
in their rehabilitations on their release?
Six years after the last meeting in 2016, 39th meeting of Judges and Chief Ministers was held
this year, in 2022, in which along with 25 Judges from High Courts, Chief Justice of India also
participated. In this meeting, Prime Minister Modi, speaking in his typical Kautilya style, spoke about
speeding up the process of justice delivery. He spoke about relief to 3.5 under-trials by this. He also
said that most of them are poor people. He also suggested arbitrations to bring down the load on the
judiciary. He also said that with the use of local languages, people will have better understanding
about law. That’s true, when the people understand about justice, then only injustices will be exposed.
Matter of fact is that, already there are provisions in constitution for speedy justice but the
governments are not allowing it. On this occasion, Chief Justice of India said that it is the governments
which are not allowing speedy justice. And also that it is the irresponsible and careless behaviour of
governments and its officers, which is responsible for pendency of cases.
Granting bail Natasha Narwal, Devangana Kalita of JNU and Asif Iqbal, a student of Jamia Milia
University, High Court of Delhi commented that to stage protest is a right of the citizens and it is not
proper to portray them as terrorists. High Court asked the police that how justified is the use of these
draconian laws? When the central government went to the Supreme Court in this matter, SC declined
to interfere in this judgement. For last few years, along with the Chief Justice of India, many institutes
and citizens are raising voice for repeal of mainly the sedition act 124 A. Modi repealed 1,800 old laws,
but did not repeal this black law 124 A of the British. The world economy and its crisis in the whole
world, is indicating that to impose the policies of neo-liberalism, they can’t rule for even a minute,
without suppressing the masses with these draconian laws. But the deepening crisis is forcing the
people to come out and fight. The laws may be very cruel, but the situation of our country shows that
the masses will resist. Prominent examples of this include the kisan movement of yesterday and the
indigenous people’s movement of today.
In the meanwhile, in the G-7 meeting which concluded in Munich, demo gauge Modi threw
very long on the freedom of expression. Said that they are committed to freedom for their citizens. But
even before this voice reached India, a series of arrests had started in India. Teesta Setalwad, a leading
activist who stood firmly with the oppressed people of Gujrat riots, was arrested on 25th June 2022 by
anti-terrorist squad of Gujrat. During Gujrat riots, 68 persons were burnt to death in Gulberga Society
on 28th February 2002. It is to be noted that this arrest took place a day after the dismissal of the
petition of Mrs. Jakia Jafri, wife of one of those victims Ex. MP Ehsan Jafery. Teesta Setalwad and her
organization ‘Citizens for Justice and Peace’ stood firmly with Mrs Jakia Jafri. Jakia’s petition was
dismissed as not tenable. In this context, the court also said that Teesta Setalwad is instigating people
there since 2006. This statement is no less than a cruel joke. Teesta is one journalist, who stood firmly
against demolition of Babri Masjid. She also brings out the magazine ‘Combat Communalism’. That’s
why she has been targeted by Modi and co.
Amnesty International has been penalized with a fine of Rs. 51.72 crore. And one ex. Ceo of
that institute, Akar Patel, a staunch opponent of fanatic hindutva forces, has also been slapped a fine
of Rs. 10 crore. Pravda Media of Alt News, which brings out the truth of various issues, has been
charged with a donation of Rs 2 lakh from the foreign sources. Co-founder of Alt News Mohammad
Juber was arrested for a tweet posted 4 years back in 2018, with comment on Hindu deities. All this is
in context of the criticism of BJP leader Nupur Sharma and other ‘saints’ for spreading hatred.
Similarly, in Jharkhand, free journalist, Rupesh Kumar siding with the indigenous people, was arrested
by police on charges of connections with Maoists. On the other side, Supreme Court slapped a fine of
Rs 5 lakh on Himanshu Kumar, who is a leading Gandhian and a well-wisher of the adivasis. Himanshu
Kumar had approached Supreme Court to demand inquiry in the case of massacre of 16 adivasis by
police, in the village Gompad, district Dantewada, in which the police blamed Maoists for these killings
in 2009. Court has also ordered a 2 years imprisonment if the fine is not paid. Court accused Himanshu
Kumar of coming to the court with baseless charges. Fact of the matter is that, in last 17 years,
Himanshu has brought up 517 matters in front of the court, and in those, none of his contention has
been found baseless, which is supported by inquiring agencies. Now, when the Supreme Court of our
country, without even minimum investigation, considers the police charge-sheet a proof in itself and
penalizes those pleading for bringing out the truth, then it is nothing but another form of increasing
intolerance and an act of revenge.
It is the foremost duty of India’s citizens to raise voice against all such incidents.
Young men of Kashmir, Mohammad Ali Batt, Latif Ahmed Vaja and Mirza Nisar Hussain were
arrested in the year 1996 and were acquitted after 23 years as not guilty. But who will punish this state
machinery which has destroyed their lives? But the masses coming forward in mass movements and
becoming conscious is expressing that, this is not going to continue. In 2017, in the Burkapal incident
in district Sukma, PLGA had killed 25 policemen. In that case, 121 villagers were kept in jail till
yesterday. Later, court has released them as not guilty. On this issue, organizations of the indigenous
people there are agitating and demanding a compensation of 2 lakh rupees per year, thus Rs 10 lakh
per person. This is to be appreciated. JNUTA is denouncing the arrest of Teesta Setalvad and
demanding her release. Renowned intellectuals of the country are demonstrating at Jantar Mantar in
Delhi. They are also demanding the release of police officers Srikumar and Sanjeev Bhatt. On the other
side, hundreds of progressive activists and indigenous people registered their protest against the
sentence on Himanshu Kumar, denouncing it as injustice. Country raised voice against the arrest of
Juber. In the meanwhile, in a recently concluded convention of APDR in Punjab in August 2022,
participating organisations PUCL, CRPP, Asansol Civil Liberties and Prison Committee raised voice for
release of the political prisoners. It is the need of the hour to raise this voice, to protest and to sharpen
the struggle. Our party makes it clear that exploiting ruling classes, reeling under the increasing
economic and political crisis, cannot supress our rights and our strength through these increasing acts
of repression.
93 years back, Com. Jatin Das fought against the British imperialists. But today, we have to fight
against many imperialist countries. Colluding with imperialists are the Hindutva forces, against which
we have to fight. We have seen comrades and friends who have fought for the people and for peoples
democracy being sent behind the bar such as Varvara Rao, Anand Teltumble, Vernan Gonsalves, Arun
Ferrera, Sudha Bharadwaj, Shoma Sen, Mahesh Rout, Sudhir Dhawde, Surendra Gadling, Honi Babu
and Sagar Gorki. Now we are witnessing the vengeance of the state from Teesta Setalvaad to
Himanshu Kumar. NIA is preparing for another round of arrests. On this occasion we have to resolve to
fight with determination against all this. Revolutionary forces and the working classes of the world
over are expressing solidarity for us. These people are also raising voice for release of Com. Saibaba,
who suffers 90 % disability. Coming days are days of the dawn for the revolutionaries. Path of
revolution is one of tremendous difficulties. But when we fight, victory will be ours. We shall follow the
path shown by Jatin Das!
 We shall fight for the release of the political prisoners!
 We shall defeat the increasing Hindutva forces of revenge!
 We shall intensify the mass movement against imperialists, CBB and
the feudal!
 Revolutionary tributes for the martyrs who laid down their lives for a
true democracy of the people!

With revolutionary greetings,
Pratap, Spokes Person
Central Regional Bureau,
CPI (Maoist).

been found baseless, which is supported by inquiring agencies. Now, when the Supreme Court of our
country, without even minimum investigation, considers the police charge-sheet a proof in itself and
penalizes those pleading for bringing out the truth, then it is nothing but another form of increasing
intolerance and an act of revenge.
It is the foremost duty of India’s citizens to raise voice against all such incidents.
Young men of Kashmir, Mohammad Ali Batt, Latif Ahmed Vaja and Mirza Nisar Hussain were
arrested in the year 1996 and were acquitted after 23 years as not guilty. But who will punish this state
machinery which has destroyed their lives? But the masses coming forward in mass movements and
becoming conscious is expressing that, this is not going to continue. In 2017, in the Burkapal incident
in district Sukma, PLGA had killed 25 policemen. In that case, 121 villagers were kept in jail till
yesterday. Later, court has released them as not guilty. On this issue, organizations of the indigenous
people there are agitating and demanding a compensation of 2 lakh rupees per year, thus Rs 10 lakh
per person. This is to be appreciated. JNUTA is denouncing the arrest of Teesta Setalvad and
demanding her release. Renowned intellectuals of the country are demonstrating at Jantar Mantar in
Delhi. They are also demanding the release of police officers Srikumar and Sanjeev Bhatt. On the other
side, hundreds of progressive activists and indigenous people registered their protest against the
sentence on Himanshu Kumar, denouncing it as injustice. Country raised voice against the arrest of
Juber. In the meanwhile, in a recently concluded convention of APDR in Punjab in August 2022,
participating organisations PUCL, CRPP, Asansol Civil Liberties and Prison Committee raised voice for
release of the political prisoners. It is the need of the hour to raise this voice, to protest and to sharpen
the struggle. Our party makes it clear that exploiting ruling classes, reeling under the increasing
economic and political crisis, cannot supress our rights and our strength through these increasing acts
of repression.
93 years back, Com. Jatin Das fought against the British imperialists. But today, we have to fight
against many imperialist countries. Colluding with imperialists are the Hindutva forces, against which
we have to fight. We have seen comrades and friends who have fought for the people and for peoples
democracy being sent behind the bar such as Varvara Rao, Anand Teltumble, Vernan Gonsalves, Arun
Ferrera, Sudha Bharadwaj, Shoma Sen, Mahesh Rout, Sudhir Dhawde, Surendra Gadling, Honi Babu
and Sagar Gorki. Now we are witnessing the vengeance of the state from Teesta Setalvaad to
Himanshu Kumar. NIA is preparing for another round of arrests. On this occasion we have to resolve to
fight with determination against all this. Revolutionary forces and the working classes of the world
over are expressing solidarity for us. These people are also raising voice for release of Com. Saibaba,
who suffers 90 % disability. Coming days are days of the dawn for the revolutionaries. Path of
revolution is one of tremendous difficulties. But when we fight, victory will be ours. We shall follow the
path shown by Jatin Das!
 We shall fight for the release of the political prisoners!
 We shall defeat the increasing Hindutva forces of revenge!
 We shall intensify the mass movement against imperialists, CBB and
the feudal!
 Revolutionary tributes for the martyrs who laid down their lives for a
true democracy of the people!

With revolutionary greetings,
Pratap, Spokes Person
Central Regional Bureau,

Speakers at a seminar in Boston, US, highlighted the cause of political prisoners, and how political dissent is being met with repression the world over. 

 they said 

incarcerated activists known as the Bhima Koregaon 16  (BK16) – BK 15 after the death of Father Stan Swamy in custody – are India’s best thinkers and public intellectuals. While working with and defending people’s rights through various platforms they also held the state accountable to the people. 

‘State’s complicity’ 

The state’s complicity in Father Stan Swamy’s death is evident in its denial of timely medical treatment to him after he contracted COVID-19 in prison. They even refused minor requests like providing a drinking straw which he needed due to his Parkinson’s disease,

The BK15 remain incarcerated under the draconian Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) which denies them bail, leading to lengthy periods of imprisonment. The Boston-based Arsenal Consulting firm’s investigations clearly showed that malware was used to plant evidence on the computers of activists like Rona Wilson and Surendra Gadling. Yet their cases do not come up for hearing before the high court,

Kanker District, August 14, 2022: The CPI (Maoist) in the Anantagarh area of Kanker district called to boycott the Independence Day 2022 celebrations. Cadres of the Maoist party have blocked roads and placed banners in protest against the Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav celebrations in the area.

Maoists blocked the road leading the Meta Budeli Chargaon by felling tress. Large number of tress have been felled on the roads between Bhaisasur and Surewahi.

As a part of the 235 km Dallirajhara-Rowghat-Jagdalpur railway project, Antagarh, which has a Nagar Panchayat, is now connected to the state capital Raipur by train service. The route of a special passenger train from Raipur and Durg to Kevti has been extended up to Antagarh.

The project is a joint venture of the Chhattisgarh government, National Mineral Development Corporation, Steel Authority of India Limited and railways.

9 Ağustos Uluslararası Yerli Halklar Günü Vesilesiyle

Hindistan’daki Halk Savaşını Destekleyen Uluslararası Komite (ICSPWI), bugün emperyalistlerin toprakları ve kültürleriyle birlikte yok etme politikasıyla karşı karşıya olan, yani doğanın ve çevrenin en önemli koruyucularından birini yok etmek anlamına gelen Hindistan’ın yerli halkı başta olmak üzere, çeşitli kıtalardaki yerli kardeşlerimizi selamlamaktadır.

Hindistan’ın yerli halkları otuz yıldır büyük emperyalist tekellerin ve Hindistan’ın büyük burjuva ve toprak sahiplerinden oluşan egemen sınıflarının açgözlülüğüne karşı direnmekte, suyun, ormanların ve toprağın yağmalanmasına ve tahrip edilmesine karşı çıkmaktadır.

Bu, yaşam ve varoluş haklarını kazanmak için Uzun Süreli Halk Savaşı ile silah elde sürdürmek zorunda kaldıkları kanlı bir mücadele oldu. Bu süreçte Hindistan’ın yerli halkı, Hindistan Komünist Partisi (Maoist) önderliğinde, bu büyük ülkenin doğu kuşağına yayılmış Devrimci Komiteler aracılığıyla yeni bir iktidar inşa etmektedir.

Yeni halk iktidarının tehdidiyle karşı karşıya kalan emperyalistler ve Hindistan egemen sınıfları, kabile topraklarının mülksüzleştirilmesini yasal olarak tesis etmeye çalışan ve şimdi Prahar Operasyonu aracılığıyla yerli halkı insansız hava araçlarıyla bombalayarak şiddetli bir imha savaşı yürüten faşist Narendra Modi liderliğinde bir terör rejimi kurdular. Halk Gerilla Kurtuluş Ordusu ile sahte çatışma (pusu çn.) maskesi altında katliamlar gerçekleştiren, yüzlerce bölge sakinini tutuklayan, işkence yapan ve yerli kadınlara tecavüzü terörizm suçlamasıyla örten, tüm halk ve demokratik örgütlere zulmeden, liderleri ve şahsiyetleri (gazeteciler, aydınlar, şairler, yazarlar vb.) ve halka karşı savaşlarına karşı çıkan herkesi hapsetmektedir.

Dünyadaki yerli halkların ve özellikle Hindistan’ın yerli halkının kahramanca mücadelesine desteğimizi yineliyoruz çünkü onlar doğanın ve çevrenin tahribatını durdurmanın ve insanlığı tehdit eden tüm felaketlerin nedeni olan emperyalist kapitalizmin kökünü kazımanın yolunu gösteriyorlar.

Hindistan’ın yerli halkı, bu ülkedeki işçi sınıfının Partisi tarafından doğru bir şekilde yönetilen işçi ve köylülerle birlikte, emperyalizme karşı ortak mücadelede proletarya ve dünya halkları için bir eğitim ve ilham kaynağıdır. Ortak düşmanlarımızı yenmek için tüm ülkelerdeki kardeşlerinin desteğine ihtiyaçları vardır.

Onların şu bilge sözlerinden ilham almalıyız: “Her şeye rağmen, hayat bize savaşmayı öğretir. Sorunlar bizi kahramanlıkla ve cesaretle doldurur. Hükümetlerin zulmü ve şiddeti bizi daha kararlı kılar. Bizi savaşmaya ve zafer için mücadele etmeye zorlar”.

ICSPWI ayrıca tüm komünistleri, anti-emperyalistleri, ilerici örgüt ve bireyleri, insan hakları ve çevre savunucularını Hindistan’ın kahraman halkıyla dayanışmayı güçlendirmeye ve siyasi tutukluların serbest bırakılması ve meşru Halk Savaşını desteklemek için eylemleri birleştirmeye çağırır.

Hindistan’ın yerli halklarının haklı hakları için verdikleri kahramanca ve militan mücadelelerini selamlayalım ve onlarla uluslararası dayanışmayı büyütelim!

Hindistan’daki Halk Savaşını destekleyelim!

Police Informant Executed By CPI (Maoist) Squad In Balaghat District Police

Balaghat District, August 6, 2022: A villager was executed on suspicion of being a police informant by a squad of cadres belonging to the CPI (Maoist) in Balaghat district of Madhya Prade

The deceased has been identified as Lalu Dhurve, a resident of Jagla village under Pathri outpost under Malanjkhand police station.

On receiving information, police reached the spot and found handwritten notes near the body of the villager, which read that he was being punished for being a police informant by the Maoist party’s Malanjkhand Area Committee.

Police said they were yet to confirm the identity of those involved in the case. Intensive patrolling was being carried out by security forces to monitor the situation.

Last week Maoists put up banners in Balaghat, giving a call to observe Martyrs’ Week from July 28 to August 3. They came Friday to put up banners and also left pamphlets in the Sonewani area, which falls under the Roopjhar police station. The Maoists had also put out a call to hold condolence meetings and construct memorials in memory of their slain comrades.

Martyrs’ week is observed by the CPI (Maoist) during this period every year in memory of their leader Charu Mazumdar, who died in police custody on July 27, 1972, in West Bengal.

CPI (Maoist) Squad Battles Security Forces In Chatra District

Chatra District, August 3, 2022: An encounter took place on Wednesday between a squad of cadres belonging to the CPI (Maoist) and security forces comprising jawans of the 190th battalion of the CRPF as well as district police in Jharkhand’s Chatra district.

Simaria SDPO Ashok Priyadarshi said that following the instructions of the Chatra SP a joint team of the 190th battalion of the CRPF in addition to the Kunda police conducted a search operation inside Harul forest during which they came in contact with the Maoists.

SDPO Priyadarshi said that the Maoist squad was led by CPI (Maoist) Zonal Commander Manohar. Following the gun battle with the jawans the Maoists escaped into the deeper reaches of the forests.

During the search and combing operation following the battle security personnel recovered two kilograms of ammonium nitrate, two gas cylinders of five kilograms each, a can bomb of three kilograms, 50 meters of electric wire, 250 grams of explosive powder and items of daily use belonging to the Maoists.

Police allege that the Maoists were busy making IED’s when security forces chanced upon them in Harul forest.

The Committee of Support of People’s War in India- Tunisia was invited to celebrate the Martyrs’ Week by Ridha Barkati, brother of the Tunisian Martyr Nidal Barkati and chief of the Organisation of the Freedom Martyr Nabil Barkati. The latter organized a book presentation of the left Tunisian writer Aziz Krichen. The event was opened by the speech of ICSPWI representative (watch here in french/arabic) who briefly explained the current situation in India, the meaning of the celebration of the Martyrs’ Week and about the upcoming International Day of the Indigenous People of the World (Tunisian Committee provided an arab version of the poster) finally the martyr and founder of Naxalite mouvement Charu MAjumdar was remembered. Images of the Indian Martyrs and CPI (M) guerilla bases were showed to the participants, and pamphlets and books from Anuradha Ghandy, Charu Majumdar and from our committee comrade Adolfo Naya were showed in the event.

In occasion of the International Day of Indigenous People, 9^th of August

The International Committee in Support of the People’s War in India (ICSPWI) salutes our indigenous brothers of the various continents, especially the indigenous people of India, who today face the imperialist policy of destroying them along with their territories and cultures, which means to destroy ones the most important guardians of nature and the environment.

The indigenous peoples of India have been resisting the greed of the big imperialist monopolies and the Indian ruling classes of big bourgeois and landowners for three decades, opposing the plunder and devastation of water, forests and land.

It has been a bloody struggle they have had to carry on arms in hand, with the Protracted People’s War, to win their right to life and existence. In the course of that, the indigenous people of India, led by the Communist Party of India (Maoist), have been building a new Power, through the Revolutionary Committees, spread throughout the eastern belt of that large country.

Faced with the threat of the new people’s power, the imperialists and the Indian ruling classes have established a regime of terror headed by the fascist Narendra Modi, who seeks to legally establish dispossession of tribals’ lands, waging fierce war of extermination, now through the Operation Prahar, carrying out massacres masked as fake encounters with the People’s Guerrilla Liberation Army, arresting hundreds of residents, torturing and covering the rape of indigenous women, with the accusation of terrorism, persecuting all people’s and democratic organizations, imprisoning leaders and personalities (journalists, intellectuals, poets, writers, etc.), and all those who oppose their war on people.

We reiterate our support for the heroic struggle of the indigenous peoples in the world and especially the indigenous people of India because they are showing the way to stop the destruction of nature and the environment and to root out the cause of all disasters that threaten humanity: imperialist capitalism.

The indigenous people of India, together with the workers and peasants correctly led by the Party of the working class in that country, are a source of education and inspiration for the proletariat and the peoples of the world, in the common struggle against imperialism. They need the support of their brothers from all countries to defeat our common enemies.

We must be inspired by their wise words when they say: “in spite of it, Life teaches us to fight. Problems fill us with heroism and to dare. Governments atrocities and violence make us more resolute. Forces us to give a war call to fight and fight for victory”.

The ICSPWI also calls all communists, anti-imperialists, progressive organizations and individuals, defenders of human rights and the environment to strengthen solidarity with the heroic people of India and to unify actions for the release of political prisoners and in support of his just People’s War.

Hail the heroic and militant struggles of the indigenous peoples of India for their justified rights and extend international solidarity with them!

Support the People’s War in India!

Hail World Indigenous People’s Day, Greeting to Friends of Indian Revolution Abroad

We convey our revolutionary greetings to all those people who stood by our struggles, especially to
friends of Indian people’s war, well-wishers abroad. We are Indigenous people of India. We are
fighting for our rights of justice. We are demanding for the implementation of the Acts made by the
Indian Government. We are raising our voice for the rights on forests and for rights on Jal, Jungle,
Jameen in our country. We oppose plundering of our forests, our immense resources by World
Capital. By our struggles, we are obstructing the destruction of our lives and devastation of forests.
We are consolidating united struggles for our existence, for conservation of environment.
Exploitative Governments are invoking false cases on us. With the help of black laws, projecting us
as terrorists, arresting and torturing us. Playing with our lives and at many a times killing us in fake
encounters. Indulging in rapes and killing our women. In spite of it, Life teaches us to fight.
Problems fill us with heroism and to dare. Government’s atrocities and violence make us more
resolute. Forces us to give a war call to fight and fight for victory.
We are waging struggles for the last 3 decades to protect Raughat hills. Those hills are iron-ore
mines. Those hills are our places of worship. Those hills play an important role in the conservation
of environment. We are fighting for Jal, Jungle, Jameen, for rights on forests, for conservation of
environment. We will fight till the end.
We are opposing mining activities at Amdai. Ours is a fight for our very existence. Comprador
Capital wants these mines. We want our existence. Can we imagine the existence of Adivasi’s
without forests and hills? Without Indigenous people who will protect them? Capital demands
destruction of them. Capital expands only with the destruction of it. But, we are obstructing it. On its
behalf, State is entering the field. Police, Arms, ammunition, Latis, Jails – all want to see our end.
We are ready to face them and struggle. We are fighting. We will fight till the end. We will fight and
win.
We are opposing setting up of Police camps at Bijapur and Sukma districts. State unleashed white
terror on us for decades and is still continuing. Salwa Judum, Operation Green Hunt, Samadhan,
Prahar – whatever be the name? Its aim is to frisk forests from us and to take away our resources.
Forests are getting bloody, blood streams are flowing, transit of Capital is continuing over the dead
bodies. We are opposing it. Life taught us to oppose injustice. Democracy taught us to oppose
Bureaucracy. We oppose setting up of Police camps, so as not to give a chance for massacres like
the ones at Bijapur and Sukma, not to give a chance for arrests, atrocities, fake encounters. We
oppose construction of Police camps at Silinger, Pombad, Gompad, Pundri, Barregudem and many
other such camps and construction of roads. For our needs, we are constructing roads, bridges,
lakes, canals and all others. We are transforming our lives. We will transform our lives with the
struggles only. We want your support.
We are fighting at Vecha ghat. We oppose construction of bridges on our rivers and turning our
forests into billionaires’ amusement tourist centers. We very well know that bridges are meant for
transportation of resources and hence we obstruct their construction. We oppose setting up of
Police camps. We raise our voice to state that we are not Hindus and to state that indigenous
people are not Hindus. We are opposing all blatant activities of bhrahmanical hindutva forces.
In Surjagad, we are opposing World Capital for the last 3 decades with the slogans “No Mining, we
want food”. But, ruling classes, hindutva forces want to alienate us from the forests and hills. Hurting
our sentiments and destroying our hamlets and continuing excavations for the mineral resources.We show immense gratitude towards all those who stood by our struggles. With your support, we
could obstruct mining activities. Repressions and prohibitions will not be able to stop our struggles
forever. We will fight. We will win over our forests.
We are fighting to protect Hasdev forests for over a decade. Exploitative eagles are eying our
forests for immense coal reserves here. But without forests, without water resources in the forests,
without Hasdev forests which are very essential for the environmental protection of the country,
without Devi, Devatha’s sacred places of worship, for us indigenous people how much ever we
have, it is as good as having nothing. Hence we are determined to fight for them till the end.
We are fighting in Kaimur, Kavvala, Nethrahat, Sompeta and in Niyamgiri. We faught at Lalgad. We
faught at Narayanpatna. We are fighting at all the places where there are problems. It is written in
the history of India that, its indigenous people are the first to standup and waged struggles. We will
continue that legacy. Thousands of peoples’ heroes like Gend singh, Sidhu, Kaanu, Gundadur,
Baburao, Komuram Bheem, Sidam Sinnu, Jungu dada are our ancestors. We salute their sacrifices.
We are not alone in the struggle. We have solidarity of the country’s workers, peasants, students,
intellectuals, employees, writers, artists, lawers, dalits, muslim brothers, more importantly well-
wishers of indigenous people. We support their struggles. We are not just demanding for our
forests, our existence, conserve our forests. We demand liberation of all exploited masses. We are
not just aspiring for our country only. We demand for the betterment of the people of the world and
for their emancipation. We oppose the present ongoing imperialist war. We know that, as long as
imperialism exists, people cannot have peace. Hence we are fighting with it. It is the main enemy for
the very existence of mankind and environment. We have to bury it. On the occasion of Indigenous
peoples day, with your support, we promise you that we will fight till the end to find solutions to the
fore said problems. We once again convey to you, our greeting and red salutes. This year,
International Committee in support for the Peoples War in India decided to observe 9 th August as
India’s Indigenous People’s solidarity day in their respective countries, in support of our struggles
and to condemn the State’s and Hindutva forces’ attacks on us, which is a happy moment for all of
us. It gives us great strength and inspiration to know that fellow indigenous people, exploited
masses are with us shoulder to shoulder. We convey our revolutionary greetings to you all.

Hail Indian Indigenous People’s Heroic, Militant Struggles For Their Justified Rights
And Extend International Solidarity for Them

9th August, is an International Indigenous people’s Day. It has been celebrating by indigenous
people of the world for the last 36 years. The 37th Mulvasi (Indigenous People) Day is going to
be celebrated in a few days. On this occasion, the Communist Party of India (Maoist) Central
Regional Bureau is conveying revolutionary greetings to all the indigenous people of the country
and the world.
During the last one year, many indigenous people across the world, including India, have
sacrificed their precious lives fighting with the suppressive and fascist governments of their
country and the security forces of State to achieve their just demands. In the memory of all their
utmost sacrifices, we pay humbly our revolutionary tributes. We are wishing speedy recovery of
those injured in the firings by the security forces of the fascist governments of predatory nature.
At the same time our Bureau appeals to the people of the country and the people of the world
including the democrats, rights activists to engage in more concerted way for the release of
thousands of indigenous people who are languishing in jails without even getting the bails.
All the indigenous people of different countries including the indigenous people of India called
to observe August 9 as a solidarity day for the people of the revolutionary movement areas
across India.
More than 8 percent of India’s population is indigenous people. More than one-fourth of the
territory of the country is covered with forest. Hundreds of tribal communities are living
harmoniously since decades across the country. Out of it more than 75 tribal communities were
shamelessly declared by Indian government as PVTG (Primitive Vulnerable Tribal Group). They
are on the verge of extinction. Disappearing of a community is really a big loss to the human
kind. It will be a serious loss to society in respect of culture, tradition, knowledge, language and
everything what that community has been gained in the past history. Really it is the tremendous
crime of exploitative Indian ruling classes.
The forests, which are hilly and have abundant water resources, have a variety of immense
natural resources. The forests play a very important role in the conservation of the environment
of South Asia including India. Till today the forests are protected by the indigenous people only.
They are the Masters of it. But it has been ignored by the rulers. Before they fade out, it is time
to recollect and remember some of these historical facts given here.
The indigenous people are fighting hard for the conservation of domestic forests with great
dedication. They are demanding their rights over Jal, Jungle, Zamin. In order to ruthlessly
suppress the struggles of those people, the Indian state not only hatched many kinds of
conspiracies and tricks but also resorted to more brutal military actions against them than ever
before. Our Bureau strongly condemns all these acts of authoritarian suppression and calls upon
the indigenous people of the country and the world, democratic intellectuals, indigenous people’s
well-wishers, democrats and rights activists to condemn such acts.
All indigenous regions of India are bursting with various forms of mass struggle. The reactionary
Hindutva forces that have been ruling India for the past few years are aggressively implementing
imperialist neo-liberal economic policies on one side and building a Hindu state with Hindutva
policies on the other. They sold vast tracts of the country’s forests to multinational corporations.Thus Indian greedy bourgeoisie are paving the way for the destruction of forests. They are
invited to make in India to loot and to spoil the precious natural resources of the country. As a
result of the economic and political policies followed by the Government of India and all the
state governments in the country, the indigenous people of India are facing a serious existential
problem.
Their very survival has become questionable. To drive them out of the forests, the state is on the
one hand resorting to white supremacist murders and massacres, and on the other hand, the
forests are being filled with lakhs of security forces. Under the rule of Hindutva forces,
corporatization and militarization of forests became synonymous. As these developments have
become life and death problems for the people, they are bound to engage in strategic and armed
struggles.
Your support and assistance is most needed for their fair and democratic struggles. It is time for
us all to walk shoulder to shoulder with them. That is why our Bureau wants you to walk with
them and their struggles. In gross violation of the Indian Constitution, the current Indian
government is making undemocratic and bigoted laws like the CAA (Citizenship Amendment
Act) in the direction of building a Hindu state. The Indian government also refuses to recognise
the indigenous people of the country as natives. India’s ruling classes have been acting with
Hindu bigotry since the beginning.
Acting in a non-secular manner is completely contrary to the spirit of the Indian constitution
which stresses on equality of all religions. The Hindutva forces in power at present are following
extreme fascist policies and are rejecting diversity as the foundation of development in the
direction of implementing the destructive ideology of one party, one ideology, one flag and one
leader. Central and state governments officially register all natives of the country as Hindus. All
of them are clamouring to identify themselves as natives in the ongoing census. It is their self-
esteem problem! Their eating habits are banned in many states, cow is worshiped, tribals, Dalits,
Muslims and other communities who consume cow meat (beef) very passionately are being
harassed and killed by mob lynching.
Hindutva mobs are attacking their villages with the arms of the state, burning their houses and
properties and making their very existence unsafe. That is why today all the native people are
protesting and criticizing by saying that we are not Hindus. Let us all join them. Let’s walk with
their self-respect struggles. Let us raise the slogan that we are with them to fulfill their demands.
The Government of India enacted a law (Panchayat Extension to Scheduled Areas, 1996) years
ago in the Fifth Scheduled Areas of the Constitution of India.
But the Act is still not implemented in at least one-fourth of the regions of the country. A law
was made three decades ago to prevent rape of Dalits and Adivasis. However, NCRB figures
reveal that physical assaults, rapes and murders are rampant against them every year under the
current rule of Hindutva forces. According to PESA, a Gram Sabha is formed in every tribal
village with all the adults. Without Grama Sabha’s permission no one should enter even the
village forest. No type of forest produce or underground resources should be moved from that
forest.
In a way, it is like the power of “Ejido” that the people of Brazil achieved almost a century ago.
The government there, which has turned its head on neo-liberal economic policies, has repealed
that law, and the Indian government, which is implementing the same policies, is also plotting in
the direction of finally abolishing the PESA law like Ejido.
Ten years after PESA, the Indian government made another law called the New Forest Act.
According to that law, four hectares of land will be given to natives and non-natives living in the
forests. However, even after a decade and a half, more than 11 lakh indigenous (Mulvasis) and
non-indigenous families (Forest dwellers) in the country have not received land according to that
law. Moreover, in February 2019, the country’s Supreme Court made a ruling watering down the
law, fueling the anger of the indigenous people of the country. Though the ruling was put on
hold with the opposition from across the country, lakhs of Adivasis are living in a panicked state
unaware of their future.
The patriots, democrats, anti-imperialist exploitation forces and environmentalists should oppose
such conspiracies and attacks of the Indian government along with all the indigenous people. We
are appealing to fight till the end for the birth rights of native people over forests.
We feel happy to inform you that all the Fifth Scheduled areas of our country are revolutionary struggle waging areas. All the oppressed people including the Mulvasi people of those areas are
fighting for their power over the forests with unparalleled sacrifices, maintaining their legacy of
struggle.
They are staunchly opposed to the corporatization and militarization of forests by the
Government of India and state governments. Where PESA has been implemented in the country,
the local government officials have been constantly engaging in various conspiracies to weaken
the powers of the Gram Sabhas.
In Gadchiroli (Maharashtra), which has brought forward the implementation of PESA in the
form of a public movement, the formation of “Zilla Parivartan Samiti ” has recently been started.
This is openly opposed by the real gram sabhas of the district. On the other hand all Mulavasi
people have condemned the shameless imposition of IPC 124 (Sedition Act) by the rulers and
their police on the thousands of people who fought for “Patthal Gadih” to implement PESA
which provides rights , Jal, Jungle Zamin (Water, Forest and Land). The CJI (Chief Justice of
India) has openly said that this law is out of date. So, our party has been making it clear for a
long time that all those cases should be withdrawn by the governments of the respective states
immediately, none of them are treasonous or betrayers, and the current suppressive rulers are the
real traitors of the people. On the occasion of The International Day of the World’s Indigenous
Peoples celebrated on August 9 our party is calling for the abolition of the anti-people tyrannical
laws.
Dear Mulvasis People,
You have been fighting for years in Dandakaranya and Jarkhand ( Kadianar, Amdai, Raoghat,
Vechaghat, Vechapad, Gompad, Pombad, Pundri, Takilod, Surjagarh and Gaya, Aurangabad,
Kaimur, Netrahat in Jharkhand). In the Hasdev forests of the Chattisgad, the people are bitterly
struggling for their rights on the forest and opposing the CBB’s mining. The Silinger People’s
Dharna which has been going on for more than a year with blood – shedding sacrifices deserves
much appreciation and stands as a model before the people. From the hearts of the people’s
struggles erupting the fiery slogans like “Bastar Mein Narasamhar Bandh Karo”, “Police camps
should be removed immediately in tribal areas” “Khadan Nahi Anaj Pahije”. The revolutionary
struggles of Jangal Mahal and Narayanapatna gave great experience of struggle for you. The
rulers ignored your peaceful and legal struggles. The rulers are squeezing your regions, your
rights and they want to overcome their neck global financial crisis that they are stuck in. But let
us categorically declare that people’s revolutionary struggles cannot get them out of that vortex
that they are stuck in.
Even if you rally to state capitals and encircle district collector’s office, the ministers and
officials are not even considering any of your demands. Moreover, though lakhs of lives are lost
due to the Covid pandemic created by the imperialists in the last two years, in spite of it they are
yet to declared the numbers honestly. The rulers forced the indigenous people of Telangana in
the midst of the pandemic and as the khakis expelling Mulvasis from their villages in the most
brutal manner, they staged agitation in the country’s capital Delhi to voice their opinion. But the
result is null.
These governments do not care about people’s problems. They do not have answers to people’s
problems. The rulers are suppressing the voices of the people only through military actions.
Those questioning the rulers are detained behind the bars and tried under tyrannical laws and
punished severely. Intellectuals, writers, journalists, rights activists, leaders, socio-political
activists, students, grassroots people, who are very concerned about the Mulvasis of our country
as the poorest of the poor, but the counter-revolutionary Hindutva forces are very intolerant
towards them.
Even though your struggles and dharnas are going on for months, you are not getting the justice
you are looking for. So you have to manage your battles more effectively. To take your fights to
new heights you must take up intensive fighting forms with determination. The oppressed people
of the whole country and the world are standing with you today. Our party calls you with full
confidence that you will go ahead more persistently and militantly and make a mark on the
World Indigenous Day on 9th August.
It is commendable that the International Committee to Support the People’s War in India has
extended its deep support to your struggles and decided to stand by your issues internationally and protect the indigenous people from the attacks of the Indian government and Hindutva forces
in their respective countries and to help them in their own countries to fulfill their just demands.
Our Bureau congratulates all of them.

With revolutionary greetings,
Pratap,
Spokesperson,
Central Region,
Communist Party of India (Maoist).

Como parte de nuestro compromiso internacionalista y acogiendo la orientación del Partido Comunista de la India (maoísta) y del Comité Internacional de Apoyo a la Guerra Popular en la India (ICSPWI), se hizo un llamado desde el portal al que respondieron los camaradas de la UOC (mlm) y otras organizaciones obreras y populares realizando algunas acciones (pega de carteles, charlas públicas en algunos programas de Facebook y venta de publicaciones); llevadas a cabo con el sincero espíritu de contribuir para que las masas en Colombia conozcan y apoyen esta avanzada de la Revolución Proletaria Mundial.
