Bhagat Singh, Pash, Chandrashekhar: .
Long Live the Legacy of Anti-Imperialist Resistance and Peoples Liberatio Struggles! .
.
Box on Iraq Meeting .
Seventy-five years ago, on March 23, three young men, Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev and Rajguru were hanged to death by the British colonial government in India. The national liberation struggle being waged by the trio, and their comrades, was too dangerous, because it lit the fires of longing for liberation, not just from British imperialists, but from the imperialists agents within the Indian ruling class as well. Today, imperialism is on a fresh offensive all over the world Palestine, Afghanistan and Iraq are the outposts of this ever-expanding imperialism. But the national liberation struggles raging on the streets of Palestine and Iraq, as well as the mass upsurges of people in all the continents of the world against imperialist war and economic policies, pose the greatest challenge to imperialism. If young people like Rachel Corrie keep alive Chés legacy of resistance to imperialism across national boundaries, those like Pash and Comrade Chandrashekhar from JNU have held high Bhagat Singhs torch of anti-imperialist nationalism, which struggles for an India free from exploitation. In our own country, the rulers, following the diktats of imperialist powers, intensify their offensive against the toiling poor in the villages and the cities alike. But every time the villagers of Narmada refuse to consent to a model of development that robs them of their rivers and their homes, every time the slum dwellers of Mumbai assert their right to live in the city that survives through their labour, the India of Bhagat Singhs dreams comes alive. Upholding the anti-imperialist legacy of Bhagat Singh, JNUSU invites you to attend a talk tonight on Iraqi peoples struggle against US occupation. We are privileged to have with us Osama Hussein, leader of the Iraqi National Foundation Congress, someone who was jailed in the regime of Saddam Hussein, and who has resisted the US occupation in Iraq. .
Tomorrow, on the occasion of Martyrdom Day of Bhagat Singh and revolutionary poet Avtar Singh Pash, JNUSU invites you to a Public Meeting to be addressed by Medha Patkar, the legendary activist of the Narmada Bachao Andolan (NBA), who is in Delhi to voice the protests of the slum dwellers of Mumbai. (Date: 23 March, Venue: Godavari Mess, Time: 2 pm) .
The Book Bank Facility, achieved after a hunger strike by the JNUSU last year, is soon to come into being from 28 March onwards. Large numbers of textbooks will be available in the TB Section of the library, for students to borrow. Students are requested to get their respective Centres to requisition all the texts that are needed, so that they can be made available in the centralised Book Bank. .
