hree days before they were hanged on 23rd March 19.31, our great m.artyred comrades Bhagat Singh, Rajguru and Sukhdeo wrote a letter to the Governor of PunJab. They demanded-that they should be considered as prisoners of war as they were waging a war against British imperialism and hence they should be shot dead by a military platoon instead of being hanged. This is a small excerpt from the letter they wrote on 20th March 1930: .

"We want to tell you that a war is going on and this will go on until those powerful are there, who have monopolized the ownership of means of income of Indian people and workers. Be it an English capitalist and British or completely an Indian -they have colluded and are continuing the loot. It does not matter whether the blood of the poor is being sucked by purely Indian capitalists. Situation can not change and there is a little impact on the people even if your government succeeds in influencing a few lenders of Indian society, or certain concession .

. granted, or some comprises effected. We are not worried that youths have been cheated once .

again and we are not scaredthat our politicians have degenerated and inreaching at compromises .

they have forgotten those innocent, homeless and unsheltered people who have scarified and .

who are unfortunately considered a members of the revolutionary party. Our politicians consider .

.them their enemy, because they think that they believe in violence. .

"The final war will be waged inthe nearfuture and will be decisive. The days ofimperialism and capitalism are numbered. This is the battle which we have participated in directly and we are proud of ourselves that neither have we started this war nor will it end with our lives. Our services will be acknowledged in that chapter of history especially brightened by the supreme sacrifices of Jatindernath Das and Bhagwati Charan. Their sacrifices are great." The war against imperialism is going on. This war is waged in our country and all over the world. Today in the .

name of globalization, horrific exploitation of the toiling masses of the world and especially of the third world countries like India, is being carried out by imperialism in unimaginable ways through its MNCs and other institutions like IMF and WB. Slapping in the face of day dreamers of 'World fraternity' under globalization, imperialism has exposed its reality in the decade of 90s itself when it attacked Iraq. Today Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait are under direct occupation of the US. Under the leadership of the US, imperialists are directly intervening in countries like Yugoslavia, Lebanan, Venezuela and Philipines. They are trying to turn Iran, Korea and the entire Middle-east into a battlefield. In our neighboring Nepal, with the help of the Indian Govt. the US is looking forward to crush the democratic struggles of the Nepalese people. As the struggles of revolutionary pleasants, workers organisations is intensifying in our country, they are being repressed by even greater intensity. This is evident in the brutal repression unleashed on the workers-peasants movements from Rajasthan-Punjab to Orissa, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, Bihar and Jharkhand. .

Today imperialism, i.e. the politics of war and occupation is unfolding before our eyes. Against this people of Iraq, Palestine, Afghanistan, Nepal, Philipines and India are struggling both through peaceful and violent methods. Struggles are marching forward taking on challenges before them. Let us come, face these challenges, mark out tasks for ourselves by debating and learning in the process. Let us intensify the revolutionary struggles. .
