From 23 March, Martyrdom Day of Bhagat Singh Rajguru, Sukhdev, Pash To 31 March, Martyrdom Day of Chandrashekhar, killed in Siwan 1997. .
British Raj Then , Bush Raj Now -Resist Imperialism ! .
.
"We don't wish to suffer by inviting a black evil to replace the white evil. Indian workers must come forward -overthrowing imperialists as well as their Indian agents who wish to perpetuate the same economic system rooted in exploitation... "-Bhagat Singh, Drat/ Revolutionary Programme, 1931 .
India's Prime Minister declared that the British Raj was an instance of "Good Governance", and has also rolled out the red carpet for Bush Raj on Indian soil. India's rulers, be they of the NDA or UPA, are allowing the US to dictate what our relations with other nations will be, what our farmers will grow... they are selling out every aspect of our economy, our lives. We see Jallianwala Bagh repeated by police with the Honda Workers in Gurgaon. Hunger and peasant distress have reached the same levels that they did under the British -resulting in starvation and suicides of the rural poor and farmers. The deep communal wounds left by the British on our polity continue to bleed periodically. .
Isn't Bhagat Singh's warning of 'black evil' replacing and reproducing the 'white evil' coming .
true In front of our eyes? .
23 March this year marks 75 years of the martyrdom of Bhagat Singh, Rajguru and Sukhdev. The best .
tribute to those martyrs can only be to pledge ourselves to resisting imperialism -not just the Bush Raj of .
.
Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay, but the Bush Raj sponsored by Manmohan in Gurgaon and Modi in .
Gandhinagar. .
.
-If we fail to identify the 'Black Evil' -India's own ruling class; .
-if we fail to expose the fact that what it calls 'enlightened national interest' is nothing but collaboration with .
the 'White Evil'; our homage to these martyrs will be reduced to empty ritual. .
.
What are the deals sealed with Bush on his visit to India? .
Does the 'civilian' nuclear deal have invisible military strings attached? .
What will the next step in 'enlightened self-interest' be, as defined by Manmohan Singh: Indian troops .
.
helping the US to police Iraq and invade Iran? What rights of our farmers has the UPA Government surrendered to Bush as part of the 'Knowledge Initiative on Agriculture'? Faced with these questions, our rulers will reply with lathis and bullets; their apologists will censure and .
condemn us; but ask these questions we must and will, if we, the citizens of the country, wish to salute the memory of Bhagat Singh and his comrades. On 23 March, join an Anti-Imperialist Convention, to be addressed by leading writers, intellectuals and .
activists who will speak of the implications of the Bush visit and the aspects of imperialism today. .
