SFI on ongoing student movement in Himachal Pradesh



Central Executive committee of the Students’ Federation of India salutes the student community of Himachal and the state unit of SFI for showing extreme courage and conviction while facing most direct, extreme and brutal state repression. Chhatra Ekta Manch had given a call for state wide protest demo call in front of the HP secretariat at Chota Shimla today for a host of burning demands including roll back of the fee hike, against revocation of the SCA elections, roll back of the RUSA system and removal of the VC of HPU. As if complete disregard to the demands and sentiments of the student community, as well the wider mass was not enough; the police was misused by the state government to stop students who were on their way from the remote districts to participate in the rally in Shimla. Many buses filled with students were halted, many students were even arrested, and many others had to spend night in buses. Veerbhadra Government made every possible effort to stop student from joining the protest. In spite of every such attempt, 4000 strong protest demonstration was organised in Shimla and various road blockades were organised across the state.

Student movement of Himachal is giving a befitting reply to the neoliberal designs of the ruling classes who want to make education a commodity and has become a source of inspiration for the student movement in the entire country. In today’s political context in our country, whether be it in Jadavpur or be it in Himachal; students are on move- Students are on move demanding better and inclusive education, demanding democracy and opposing every single injustice. CEC pledges to carry forward the flame of our times with more vigour and more strength.

Left Front Calls for Intense Movement against the Trinamool State Government


 As per the schedule, the 22nd September Left Front rally has taken the charge of the city of Kolkata as a challenger to the State Government on Saradha Scam and Jadavpur University Massacre. The huge rally from Ramlila Park, Moulali to Park Circus Maidan has aptly clarified that the movement would continue to awaken the sleeping State Government. The state Left Front has committed to stand by the Taxi Drivers’ movement and the movement of Jadavpur University students against molestation of the lady student and mid-night Police attack on students within the campus.

Surjya Kanta Mishra

While addressing the crowd at Park Circus, Party Polit Bureau member Surjya Kanta Mishra slammed the Government saying that ‘we want the revelation of the ultimate in Saradha scam. The Chief Minister may be fond of watching TV serial but we want speedy end of the thriller serial continuing on Saradha Scam. The movement however would continue until all investors and agents get their money back’.

Speaking on Jadavpur massacre, he stated that ‘The Vice-Chancellor bears a single qualification that he belongs to Trinamool and nothing more than that. There is no other solution left beyond the removal of this Vice-Chancellor’.

On Saradha-Trinamool association he said that ‘not just Saradha scam, many chit fund companies have looted crores of money from various districts. The State Government has to list them up and take initiative to return the money. But SIT of the State Government has instead tried to cover the Trinamool leaders. CBI can call any person whosoever, Rabin Deb or even me or any Left Leader, we have no objection. We want confiscation of all involved Trinamool leaders’ property to pay the small investors back. The Left Front Government in such cases had have confiscated all such properties to pay the investors back’.

On Taxi Drivers’ movement he said that ‘only billionaires are good to this Government and all Taxi drivers and Minibus workers are nasty people. So movement is the only option’.

Biman Basu

Addressing the rally the Left Front Chairman Biman Basu stated that ‘Trinamool id perpetrating anarchy everywhere from Nabanna to all educational institutions. Refuting University autonomy, Trinamool has nominated their own people and closed ones in everywhere setting up a party-ruling in the state. The students for this reason have expressed no confidence on the new investigating committee on Jadavpur molestation case. The Vice-Chancellor himself has perpetrated the crime of mid-night attack on students’.

On Trinamool leader and Mamata Banerjee’s relation Abhishek Banerjee’s recent comment on JU movement as only for narcotics and liqour, Biman Basu slapped by saying that ‘this sort of comment can only come from those who take narcotics and himself is drunkard’.

Basu also said that ‘why now the self-proclaimed symbol of honesty is listening such a slogan “Gali gali mein shor hai, Trinamool Congress chor hai”. The State Government even opposed CBI investigation after more than 17 lakhs of people have lost their hardened money. The State Government has spent Rs. 11 crores to halt the CBI investigation because the ruling Trinamool’s MPs, MLAs, and Ministers’ are all involved in this biggest scam’.

On Taxi Drivers’ movement, Biman Basu said that ‘their demands are all legitimate and the Government is not even listening to them at all. So the movement is the only option’.

Press Communiqué of CPIM PB


 
The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) met in New Delhi from September 10 to 12, 2014. It has issued the following statement:
 
J&K Floods
 
The Polit Bureau expressed its deep concern at the severe and widespread floods which have affected Jammu & Kashmir. The floods have resulted in the loss of hundreds of lives, widespread destruction of property and displacement of lakhs of people from their homes.
 
Much more needs to be done. The army and the paramilitary forces have been working round the clock. The state administration has been unable to cope with the situation. Even now, after relief and rescue efforts, thousands are marooned, there is acute shortage of food and essential commodities and breakdown in communications. The Central Government must step up the relief and rescue operations through various agencies.
 
The Polit Bureau reiterated the call already given to its Party units to collect money for the relief and rehabilitation work.
 
Modi Government’s Decisions
 
The Polit Bureau strongly criticized the decision of the Modi Government to wind up the Planning Commission. This decision is in conformity with the neo-liberal view that there is no need for planning in a market-oriented economy. The end of the Planning Commission symbolizes the dominance of finance capital-corporate interests over the economy.
 
The Polit Bureau strongly opposed the decision of the government to go in for large scale disinvestment of shares in Coal India, NHPC and ONGC. Through this offloading of shares, the government expects to realize Rs. 44,000 crores. This will be the single largest disinvestment of shares ever. The Modi Government is embarking on this massive disinvestment not only to raise funds to bridge its fiscal deficit but to fulfill its ideological commitment against the public sector.
 
The Polit Bureau calls upon all democratic forces to unitedly resist this attack on the public sector.
 
Tribal Rights on Land
 
The CPI(M) strongly protests against the moves by the Government to sabotage and subvert the rights of tribal people guaranteed under the constitutional and legal framework. Taken together the provisions of the Land Acquisition Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, the Forest Rights Act and PESAA provide a certain amount of protection against corporate land grab of tribal land. For example no project can be implemented on tribal land in Fifth Schedule areas without the consent of the tribal gram sabha.  This right was upheld by the Supreme Court of India in the Vedanta case. The Modi Government wants to take away this right. Since it will require amendments to the law, there are efforts to dabble with the Rules to make this utterly illegal and unjust action possible. Already in the name of linear projects, the rights were diluted by the then UPA Government. Now the Modi Government wants to take this blatantly anti-tribal step further.
 
Further, the Environment Ministry has given environmental clearances for 240 of the 325 projects which were awaiting clearance. This will involve diversion of 7122 hectares of forest land for the projects in coal, mining, power etc. Here too, the rights of the tribal people are involved.
 
The CPI(M) will work along with tribal organizations to organize mass movements to protect tribal rights on these and related issues.
 
Communal Campaign
 
The Polit Bureau condemned the BJP-RSS communal campaign in Uttar Pradesh. The spurious issue of “love jihad” is being used by the Hindutva forces to cause communal tensions and polarization. In the campaign for the bye-elections in Uttar Pradesh, the BJP MP Adithyanath has been using inflammatory communal propaganda.
 
This comes in the wake of the statements by the RSS Chief, Mohan Bhagwat, that all Hindustanis should be called Hindus and that the identity of Indians is Hindutva.
 
The UP state government should initiate firm action against those indulging in communal hate speech and creating communal tensions. The Election Commission should have acted promptly in prohibiting Adithyanath from making speeches during the election campaign. It has confined the action to directing the administration to file a FIR against him.
 
Trinamul-Chit Fund Nexus
 
The CBI investigation into the Saradha chit fund scam is uncovering the nexus between the Trinamul Congress leadership and the chit fund owner. The involvement of the Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and other key leaders of the Trinamul Congress are coming into focus. The state government is making brazen efforts to protect the guilty and to hamper the investigations. The Supreme Court directed CBI investigation should proceed without hindrance so that all those involved in this criminal nexus are pinpointed and held accountable. In the meantime, the Central agencies should step in and ensure that the properties and assets of the Saradha group of companies are confiscated and used to compensate lakhs of victims of the scam. Government funds should not be spent for this purpose.
 
Political Review
 
The Polit Bureau conducted an in-depth review of the political-tactical line which the Party has been pursuing. A review report will be placed in the next Central Committee meeting. This is a preparatory step towards preparing the Draft Political Resolution for the Party Congress to be held next year.
 
Party Congress
 
It has been decided to hold the 21st Congress of the Party at Vishakhapatnam from April 14 to 19, 2015.

SFI panel for JNU Students Union Election 2014

The JNU Students Union (JNUSU) Elections 2014-15 are being held at time when a communal, far right force has come into power at the Centre in India. We have been witness, in the recent months, to a spate of assaults on people’s rights and livelihoods, and on the secular fabric of our society in a number of ways, including unrelenting price rise, increasing communal violence and efforts to communalise education. The Union which will be elected in the upcoming elections will have to rise up to the challenges thrown up by the new situation, especially given the experience that the last BJP-led government had made every effort to introduce obscurantist, communal curriculum (in the form of courses like ‘human consciousness’) even in JNU, which was defeated by the united resistance of students under the leadership of the SFI-led JNUSU of 2001-02.

In the JNU campus, however, there is tremendous discontent and anger today among the students against the previous AISA-led Union which did nothing with regard to the most important students’ demands on hostels and scholarships. The students of JNU have been hit hard by the most severe shortage of hostel rooms that JNU has experienced in the recent decades, and the Unions in the recent years, led by DSF and AISA, have responded with callousness, inaction and false claims. Similarly on the demand to increase Merit-Cum-Means (MCM) scholarships for BA/MA students from Rs. 2000 to Rs. 3000, the last Union refused to stage even a single protest. We have also seen a tremendous setback to the gender-just ethos of JNU in the recent weeks, with the JNUSU President and Joint Secretary (both from AISA) resigning after they violated the rules and procedures of the Gender Sensitisation Committee Against Sexual Harassment (GSCASH) by bringing out a public statement on a GSCASH case against themselves. The urgent task of the Union which will be elected in the upcoming elections, therefore, would be to revive the legacy of the JNU students’ movement, which has historically been known for its relentless and sincere struggles to concretely advance students’ rights and contribute to the larger struggle for radical social transformation.
It is with this perspective of reinvigorating the JNUSU, and foregrounding an agenda of ensuring accommodation facilities for students (including expansion of hostel facilities and alternative accommodation for all students until new hostels are constructed), enhancement of scholarships, further democratization of the admission policy by eliminating the scope for all kinds of discrimination in the admission process and ensuring gender justice through unyielding struggle and vigorous sensitisation, that SFI is facing the JNUSU Elections 2014-15.

                                Our central panel for the election is as follows: 


                                         For President – Pindiga Ambedkar

                                             For Vice-President - Salini LR
 


                                       For General Secretary – Najeeb VR 

                                      For Joint Secretary – Dinesh Kataria.


Councillor Candidates:
School of Social Sciences – Balu Raj, Dipsita Dhar, Manish Kumar, Satarupa Chakraborty, Twinkle Siwach

School of International Studies – Amal Pullarkat, Prasanta Kumar Sahu, Sanjukta Nath, Shibin Xavier, Sudeep Kumar Jaiswal

School of Language, Literature and Culture Studies – Adarsh MV , Akshat Seth, Kumari Anjali, Md Amir Malik, Sruti Md

School of Arts and Aesthetics – Nisam Asaf K J

Centre for the Study of Law and Governance – Jeemut Pratim Das.

School of Biotechnology- Aparna C R

We appeal to the students of JNU to rally behind the SFI to revitalise the students’ movement and to take our struggle for a more egalitarian and just society forward.

MASSIVE RALLY OF AIDWA AGAINST COMMUNAL MODI REGIME








 
Mariam Dhawale

Even the torrential rains could not dampen the spirit of thousands of women - overwhelming   majority of them tribals - who enthusiastically participated in the huge public meeting   organized by the AIDWA Palghar-Thane district committee on August 27, 2014. Young and   old, the women came in trucks, tempos, jeeps, buses and rickshaws. Hundreds of them came  walking from the neighbouring villages, with children in hand.   Attired in attractive and colourful sarees, more than 5,000 women from all directions poured  
into the Somaiya Trust Hospital Hall at Dhundalwadi village in Dahanu tehsil of the newly   formed Palghar district, which was carved out of the old Thane district last month. The new   Palghar district has a predominant Adivasi population.   Women came from the ravines, mountains and forests of Jawhar, Vikramgad, Mokhada,  Dahanu, Talasari, Palghar, Wada and Shahapur tehsils of Palghar and Thane districts. Due to heavy rains, the public meeting could not be held on the huge terrace of the hospital as had
been planned. So the two big halls and all the corridors on the ground floor of the building  were literally overflowing with women. The significance of this women’s rally was that it was taking place on the eve of the state assembly elections that are due next month in October. Among the 20-odd assembly seats that the CPI(M) will fight in these elections as part of the Left Democratic Front, five seats are from the Palghar and Thane districts. The main speaker in this public meeting was AIDWA Vice President Sudha Sundarraman.

She congratulated the women for participating in such large numbers in spite of the heavy downpour, showing the tremendous commitment that of all of them have towards the organization and movement. Sudha lambasted the BJP central government for deceiving the people with false promises of ‘achhe din’ and increasing hardships for the poor and downtrodden. Speaking of the larger struggle going on in the country, she referred to the growing malnutrition-related deaths of tribal children, the non-implementation of the Food

Security Act, the sky-rocketing price rise of essential commodities, the serious question of unemployment, the need to stringently implement and expand the scope of the NREGA, and the importance of adopting the Women’s Reservation Bill. Sudha also spoke about the need to mobilize people against increasing violence against women and girl children. Killings in the name of ‘honour’ are rising. The slogan of ‘love jehad’ is being raised by the Hindutva communal forces against the minority community to polarize the people. This will result in further attacks on women. She stressed the need to fight against feudal and patriarchal attitudes towards women and against all forms of communalism, casteism and social oppression. For all this, she said, our struggles must vastly increase in scope and intensity. Finally, she called upon the women to take active part in the coming election battle for the State Assembly, to defeat the BJP-SS combine as well as the
INC-NCP alliance, and to ensure the resounding victory of the CPI(M) in these elections.

The public meeting was also addressed by AIDWA state secretary Sonya Gill. She elaborated on the changes being made in the laws regarding land rights by the Modi government. Land will be usurped by vested interests under the pretext of development. Hotels and resorts are being constructed on this land in Maharashtra, displacing thousands of tribals and further increasing their impoverishment. Many poor families have been excluded as beneficiaries when implementing the Food Security Act. She praised the women for the consistent and militant struggles they have been waging on these issues in Palghar-Thane district. Sonya criticized the BJP and NCP for instigating the Dhangar community to demand its inclusion in the scheduled tribes and thus dividing the working people for their own selfish electoral interests. Dhangar is a nomadic tribe in Maharashtra and has a 3.5 per cent reservation in this category, as against all Adivasi tribes who have a reservation of only 7 per cent in education and jobs. She called upon the women to work hard in the coming election campaign to decisively defeat the BJP-SS, INC-NCP and to ensure the victory of the Left.

AIDWA state president Mariam Dhawale spoke about the challenges before the women’s movement in the tribal areas of Palghar-Thane districts. AIDWA has a membership of over 22,389 and contacts in nearly 150 villages in 7 tehsils of Palghar-Thane districts. She said that along with the struggles on the issues mentioned above, AIDWA is conducting an awareness campaign on the issue of violence against women and girl children. Mariam said that this campaign which started on July 23, the second death anniversary of Captain Laxmi Sehgal, is receiving tremendous response from all sections of society. The campaign which includes brief lectures explaining the issue of violence on women, discussions on the issue with women and students, taking of oath to prevent atrocities on women and a signature campaign demanding a comprehensive law against honour killings, is being organized jointly with the SFI in secondary schools, colleges, ashram schools and in villages and will culminate on September 28, Shaheed Bhagat Singh’s birth anniversary.

More than 3,500 students and 7,000 women have participated in this campaign so far. Thousands of women in this public meeting took the oath to combat violence against women. The ensuing state assembly elections, said Mariam, will be a crucial battle for protecting the rights of the tribals, especially women. Right to land, water, forests, food grains, employment are very important for tribal women. ‘Development’ for the ‘haves’ and displacement and migration for the ‘have-nots’ are the policies of the Congress-NCP state government and BJP central government that have to be rejected by women. The danger of the communal forces like RSS-BJP-SS has also to be combated. The AIDWA will hold hundreds of meetings in hamlets and villages to unite the women to elect the CPI(M) candidates in Dahanu, Vikramgad, Palghar, Boisar and Shahapur constituencies in the Palghar and Thane districts. The rally was greeted by CPI(M) Thane district secretary Rajaram Ozare MLA, AIKS state joint secretary Barkya Mangat and DYFI district secretary Ramdas Sutar. AIDWA state secretariat members from Palghar-Thane district Raseela Dhodi and Sangeeta Ozare
addressed the public meeting which was presided over by AIDWA district president Lahani Dauda. The young 27-year old AIDWA state committee member Heena Vanga, who will be the CPI(M) candidate from the Boisar (ST) assembly seat, also addressed the meeting.

A concerted fortnight-long campaign of village-level meetings and the distribution of 5,000 leaflets had been undertaken by AIDWA activists in Palghar-Thane districts to ensure the success of this public meeting. Activists of the other mass organizations in Thane district, like the AIKS and DYFI, also helped the AIDWA in its efforts. The rally greatly enthused all to work for the challenging political battle to come next month.

Martyrs Day! Left calls for unrelenting movements against twin dangers of Trinamul and BJP




31st of August, 1959!  Lakhs of the poorest people in the state had walked to Calcutta, towards the Writer’s Building, the seat of power of the anti-people and oppressive Congress govt. The peaceful, democratic yet determined march of the toiling hungry masses, were met by Chief Minister, Bidhan Chandra Ray’s police with tear gas and a brutal lathi charge. Eighty people died.


This day, commemorated by the Left Front as the ‘Martyrs Day’, saw people all over the state mourning the deaths of innocents and to offer respect to the 160 killed since 2011 and over 2500 killed over the years of left movements at the hands of the reactionary and imperialist forces. CPI (M) Polit Bureau member and WB State Secretary, Biman Basu reminded the audience at Promode Dasgupta Bhavan of that fateful day. Those miserable times, when the cries of the hungry millions who migrated to the city for a bit of rice or came alive during his speech. He reminded everybody about the barbaric role played by CM, BC Ray and Home Minister, Kalipada Mukherjee. Jyoti Basu, in an address to the Bengal Assembly then, had exposed the role played by the duo, which were in the Police Control Room, personally ordering the murderous assault on the people. The protests by the students the following day was summarily fired upon. Speaker after speaker from the Left Front, RSP, Forward Bloc, CPI recalled that inhuman and unprecedented attack on unarmed democratic protestors and vowed to lead the people to fight the current danger.

CPI (M) Polit Bureau member, Buddhadev Bhattacharya called upon the people to take a ‘vow’ on this day to rise in the fight against growing imperialism, which in the quest for super normal profits sends millions hungry to bed. He said that we all were ’indebted’ to the sacrifice of the people on this day. 1947, he said was when people of India got freedom from foreign subjugation but not from hunger. He focussed on the current Mamata Banerjee govt in Bengal, which has, in just 3 years brought down a food surplus state to a deficient one. Farmers were committing suicide again; Lakhs of acres of cultivable land remained untilled.

Buddhadev Bhattacharya also used the occasion to remind the people of the danger of the fascist and communal BJP govt at the center. He slammed the efforts of the popular media to whitewash the agenda of ex-RSS pracharak PM, Modi as ‘development’ focussed. ‘Development’, he said was a mask. Whatever economic policies this govt has outlined was for the large corporations, domestic and foreign. They were being allowed loot of the most profitable of sectors, financial, defence, Railways, etc. The common toiling masses and the middle-class would have wait for the ‘Good Days’ and be happy with the ‘bitter pill’ served by the PM. He was scathing about the industrial wasteland that Bengal was turning into under Mamata, ‘extortion’ being the only policy and asked as to what would happen to the bright boys and girls graduating out of colleges. He reminded all that their future was our responsibility. He reminded the audience about the dangers of the current phase of imperialism, which is not only looting the world of all resources and the working people of the most basic levels of sustenance, but also sparking off barbaric wars on innocent people across the world.

They both called upon the people to rise in a democratic manner against the twin dangers of the Trinamul and the BJP govt.  Tomorrow, the 1st of September, the day Hitler’s Panzer division had crossed the border into Poland, which the Left parties designate as the ‘anti-imperialism’ day, will see lakhs of people walk in protest. Both Biman Basu and Buddhadev Bhattacharya gave an impassioned call to the people to rise in a ‘face-to-face’ fight against these anti-people govts. Enough was enough. This oppression and injustice cannot be accepted any more.
