[news from the cpi(m)]

March 6, 2018

 

Press Statement

 

The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the
following statement:

 

In solidarity with democratic & peace loving people of Tripura:

Protest condemning RSS/BJP violence

 

The Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) strongly condemns the unleashing of
unprecedented violence and arson by the RSS/BJP all across the state of
Tripura in the aftermath of their victory in the recent assembly election.

 

CPI(M) and Left Party offices and cadres are targetted with murderous
assaults. The destruction of the statue of Lenin, is symbolic of the rabid
anti - communist, anti - democratic fascistic character of the RSS.

 

A delegation of the CPI(M) and Left Parties MPs submitted a memorandum to PM
today in Parliament detailing major incidents of such attacks. This
memorandum is attached here with.

 

These attacks clearly demonstrate, once again, that the RSS/BJP rely mainly
on unleashing political violence as means to advance their inherent
anti-democratic agenda.

 

In solidarity with the CPI(M), Left Front and the democratic peace loving
people of Tripura and Comrades who are facing these attacks, the PB of
CPI(M) calls upon its units all across the country to organise protest
actions exposing the inherent anti-democratic, anti people character and
activities of RSS/BJP.
