Press Statement

 

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

Congratulations to the Kisan Movement

The Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) congratulates the Samyukt Kisan Morcha(SKM),
various kisan and agricultural workers organisations and the peasantry on
their historic victory forcing the Modi government to repeal the three black
laws that ensure corporate control and takeover of the agriculture sector.
The PB hails the firm solidarity of trade unions and other democratic
sections for their support to this farmers' struggle.

The movement has been a shining example of what unity and resilience can
achieve in resisting the overall assault on people's livelihood and rights
under the present government. This victory shows that united struggles can
overcome differences of caste and communities in salvaging democracy and
reversing the onslaughts.

The PB appeals to all Party units and other progressive sections to join the
celebrations beginning today for the suspension of the blockade at the gates
of Delhi, all across the country. The CPI(M) joins in expressing solidarity
with the efforts of the SKM to pursue the legitimate demand for a guaranteed
MSP for all crops and all farmers across the country and other pending
issues to address the agrarian crisis. 

CPI(M) salutes the more than 700 people who laid down their lives in course
of this protracted struggle. PB calls upon the government to pay
compensation to the families of martyrs. All cases related to the struggle
must be withdrawn without any further delay.
