Against Forbesganj Killing, Darbhanga Witch-hunt, Aurangabad Police Atrocity and Bathanitola Injustice The Movement for Justice Gathers Momentum in Bihar: Indefinite Fast by CPI(ML) in Patna, Ara and Daudnagar .

Nearly one year after the barbaric Farbesganj firing (3 June, 2011) which had claimed four innocent Muslim lives, including a six-month pregnant woman and a 10-month-old infant, the commission of inquiry set up by the Bihar government is yet to submit its report. In the mean time, the Nitish govt, in its 112-page counter affidavit filed in the Supreme Court against a writ petition seeking CBI enquiry, has termed the Forbesganj killings of June 3, 2011 as a minor incident which does not need any CBI enquiry. Significantly, the SP of Araria who had presided over this policeatrocity has been promoted to the post of Senior SP and deployed in the sensitive district ofDarbhanga where Muslim youth are being increasingly demonised and harassed by the state as 'perceived terrorists'. On May 2, 2012 Aurangabad witnessed similar kind of police barbarity where the police unleashed a brutal crackdown to stop a popular protest against the murder of a popularmukhiya. Comrade Rajaram Singh, member of the CPI(ML) Central Committee and two-term MLA (1995-2005) from Obra constituency in the district was brutally beaten up againand again by the SP himself and arrested with 28 other protestors. Despite widespreadprotests including a highly successful Bihar Bandh on May 10, the autocratic governmentrefuses to release the protestors or initiate any action against the erring SP and DM.On 15 May a 5-member delegation of CPI(ML) leaders comprising Comrades KD Yadav,Rameswar Prasad, Arun Singh, Anwar Hussein and Shashi Yadav met chief minister NitishKumar and asked him to stop this growing injustice, release Comrade Rajaram and hiscomrades, initiate action against guilty policemen including the SP of Aurangabad, orderCBI probe into Forbesganj firing and the recent spate of political murders and guarantee justice for the victims of Bathani Tola. Six teams went on an intensive Nyay Yatra (March for Justice) addressing hundreds ofmeetings on this pressing agenda of justice. The Nyay Yatra culminated in a massive Jan Sunwai (public hearing) on 21 May in the state capital where a 7-member jury comprising noted academics, advocates, activists and journalists endorsed the popular demands forjustice.With the state government still not paying any heed to the growing cry for justice, theCPI(ML) resolved to intensify the agitation. An indefinite fast was launched simultaneouslyin three centres on May 26 under the leadership of Comrades Arun Singh (Patna), SudamaPrasad (Ara, Bhojpur) and Anwar Hussein (Daudnagar, Aurangabad). Hundreds of peopleare daily thronging the fast sites. Street-corner meetings are being held across the state insupport of the fast and statewide protests have been planned for June 2 when one month .
