ACall to participate in the 'Freedom Struggle' against Brahmlnlcal Fascism and Re-colonization Process! .
The present times are periods of great crisis for nation~ sove~eignties. Th!! country which belongs to all of us has been under attack from multinational corporate. ·In all the sphere of education. economics, politics. family, we are no longer the one to decide our own future. Since the history of "transfer of power" this country has adopted pro-cpaitalist economic policies. which were further acceleratedaftgr the.l990's. The new Mantra of liberalization-Privatization-Globalization has blinded the political leadership across the parties.The Nee-liberal fundamentalism has its aim in destroying the public institutions whether it is student unions in the educational institutions. working class unions. peasant movements. or ·public distribution systems for the safeguards of poor. Multinational corporations flourished on the patronage of Indian state. lnspite of being able to produce wheat rice, sugarcane. metal. oil. clothes. technologies we were forced to import.We have become 'slaves' in our country. the neo-liberal inventions e.g. SEZ are testimony to this. .
These times remind us the "real freedom movements" led by the revolutionaries like Bhagat Singh. Sukhdev. Rajguru. Chandrasekhar. Jatin.Asfaqullah etc. during 1920-30's. They all fought for the reconstruction of society on socialist and egalitarian lines .
where "no man exploits another man". They fought for the creation of a caste-le~. class-less. non-communal society. These revolutionaries were no romantic heroes: rather they read and followed Marxist-leninist writings on communism.Those were the times when lenin marched the world with the victory of Bolsheviks. Indian revolutionaries were fighting against the colonial rule but were also deeply sensitive to the inequalities of caste. class. sex and religion prevalent in those times as they are today. It is these revolutionaries who gave us the slogan of "INilUILAB ZINDABAD". The so-called 'Bapus' and 'Mahatmas' of this country, then. betrayed their own countrymen and called the struggle and sacrifice of these revolutionaries as 'waste of energies'. Similarly. the revolutionaries of the Telangana movement in 1940's and the Naxalbari movement in 1980's radicalized the call for armed revolution. They sacrificed their lives while fighting for the cause of an egalitarian society which was betrayed by the ruling castes and classes of this country. Thus. in today's times it be.comes moral responsibility for us to uphold those principles for which our revolutionaries sacrificed their lives. In .
this scenario. let's understand and resist the politics of global imperial forces that are enslaving our country again. .
Take a closer look at what is happening around the world. People of Iraq are being enslaved and.tortured in their own country;the Kashmiris are murdered for raising their demand of self-determination. Simil~rly. the Eelam people are caged inside barbed fences:the North east nationalities are oppressedand denied their status for self deter~ination. Our nation's wealth is being plundered without any restriction by ~arge multinational corporations from imperialistic countries like the US. and their compra~or bourgeois Indian partners like the Ambani's. Adani's. Mittal's and lata's. It does not stop with just natural resources -about 5 lakh crores of tax payers' money has been given away to multinational corporations as subsidies and tax concessions by our government. But when it comes to providing basic amenities to its own citizens like education. healthcare. drinking water etc. the governm~nt says it does not have enough money in its budget. World Bank issues orders to our government to cut down the money spent for the welfare of the people-our government heeds to such orders without aword a~d cuts down its expenses on education. agriculture. small industries. petrol. diesel. gas etc. We have lost our right to free education -who is responsible for that? It Is our government which. instead of considering education as a basic and necessary service to be offered to its citizens. declares it as a commodity and allows private players to exploit. The state educational institutions. where poor are getting educated. are deliberately undermined. Private educational institutions. which are nothing but robbers' dens. proliferate and thrive.
