Press Statement
 
The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the
following statement:
 
Condemn Horrific Blasts in Sri Lanka
 
The Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) expresses its strong condemnation and outrage
at the serial blasts in Sri Lanka which have killed 290 people and injured
500 others.  The death toll is expected to rise. The terrorist attack
targeted congregations at churches in Easter Sunday and hotels using lethal
explosives and suicide bombers. 
 
This horrific attack highlights how terror motivated by religious extremism
is increasingly targeting minorities in the respective countries of South
Asia.  This underlines the necessity to combat religious extremism in all
its forms.
 
The CPI(M) expresses its solidarity with the Sri Lankan people and conveys
its heartfelt sympathy to all the bereaved families.  The Party hopes all
efforts will be made to track down the culprits and group responsible  for
the massacre and severe action taken against them.
