On PM Manmohan Singh's visit to JNU today, students protested against the UPA Government's anti-people policies.
by showing black flags. Students dared to voice their spirited protest against the Armed Forces Special Powers Act, the.
Patents Amendment Act, the police atrocity on workers in Gurgaon and students in Garo Hills, as well as the UPA Gov-.
ernment's pro-US foreign policy and economic policy, and its compromise with communal forces. While AISA and other.
democratic groups protested,while the SFI-AISF held back from the protest, the ABVP and NSUI joined hands to attack.
the peaceful protestors physically. The police and JNU Administration tacitly patronised the violence by ABVP-JPF and.
NSUI lumpens. Several AISA activists including women students were roughed up and suffered injuries..
.
JNU students have had a glorious tradition of fearlessly expressing dissent against those in power: this campus showed.
.
black flags to Indira Gandhi during Emergency and protested against Advani's visit in 1996. Today's protest has kept alive.
that tradition..
.
Protest and dissent is the very life breath of democracy. NSUI and ABVP - defenders of the brutal anti-people policies.
of the Congress and BJP - tell us that to protest against the PM is "anti-national", and that the protestors have "tarnished.
JNU's image" by failing to welcome the PM. Let us ask ourselves, do we "welcome".
.
- The killers in the uniform of the Assam Rifles, who raped Manorama Devi in Manipur?.

- The police who re-enacted Jallianwala Bagh in Gurgaon and watched as Dalit homes were torched in Gohana?.
.
- The police bullets which killed students in Garo Hills?.
.
- The political leaders who burned Sikh youth alive in 1984, or Muslims in Gujarat?.

- The IMF-World Bank-dictated economic policies that force our farmers to commit suicide, that rob us of our right to.

- The killer Patent Laws that snatch health and medicine from the reach of the poor?.
.
- The sellout of India's sovereign foreign policy by voting against Iran in the IAEA at US dictates?.
.
How "nationalist" is it to "welcome" the above killer policies? If not, how can we "welcome" the very person who is implementing.
these policies, who is responsible for them? The UPA Government has not only continued with the NDA's economic and.
foreign policies, it is also protecting the perpetrators of the Gujarat carnage. Manmohan Singh recently refused to.
make available the late K R Narayanan's letter to Vajpayee regarding Gujarat, to the Nanavati Commission..

protest, SFI-AISF lost no time to reveal their true love forManmohan. For the SFI-AISF, "protest" against Manmohan was.

various ideological fora of the CPI(M) - notably the SIlver Jubilee celebrations of CPI(M) Telugu Party Organ Prajashakti.

SFI-AISF is trying to hide its own reluctance to protest by claiming that the JNUSU President, during her tenure.

communique. This communique makes it VERY CLEAR that the decision to invite Manmohan was a pre-decided fact.

The walls scared with bullet holes from the 1919 Jallianwala Bagh massacre, Amritsar, Punjab, India
This is a public garden in Amritsar in the Punjab state of India, and houses a memorial of national importance, established in 1951 to commemorate the massacre by British occupying forces of peaceful celebrators on the occasion of the Punjabi New Year on April 13, 1919 in the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre.
