Press Statement

 

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

 

Salute this Historic Victory of Farmers' Struggle

 

The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) salutes the
historic victory of the year-long spirited, inspiring and courageous
struggle by the kisans under the leadership of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha. 

 

An obdurate PM and his government were forced to bend. Yet Modi continues to
justify these black laws blaming a section of farmers being misled. There is
no remorse expressed at the deaths of our farmers or the attacks against
them. 

 

The CPI(M) reiterates that the parliament while repealing these black laws
enact the legal right to sell at MSP for all agricultural crops.

 

More than 750 farmers have been martyred in this struggle. They faced
hostility from the BJP administration with military type roadblocks,
threats, intimidations and murderous physical attacks. Strict action must
taken against all such people who have indulged in these activities. 

 

The PB of the CPI(M) hails the determination of our farmers and endorses the
SKM's approach that they shall wait to see the materialisation of these
assurances before returning to their villages.
