Release Grains from Huge Stock-Pile

CPI(M) Polit Bureau has issued the following statement on March 18

AS the nation is trying to contain the spread of deadly Covid-19 virus, its adverse economic effects have already started impacting the livelihoods of vast sections of poor and marginal sections. Activities in many sectors of the economy like hospitality, tourism, construction, transport have virtually come to a standstill hitting hard the earnings of daily wage and unorganised workers, street vendors, small shopkeepers and migrant workers.

Criminal Hike in Excise Duty on Petrol & Diesel

CPI(M)  Polit Bureau now in session in New Delhi has issued the following statement on March 14

THE Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) strongly condemns the hike in excise duty on petrol and diesel.

Strangely, when international crude oil prices are falling sharply, the Narendra Modi government, as is its wont, has increased the excise duty on petrol and diesel. This is a criminal assault on people already suffering under economic recession.

Outrageous not to Discuss Delhi Communal Violence in Parliament

CPI(M) Polit Bureau has issued the following statement on March 6

THE Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) is outraged by the failure of the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha to discuss the ghastly communal violence in North East Delhi.

The failure to discuss such a humongous tragedy with law and order under the charge of the union government is shameful. This has officially cost 53 lives so far and the numbers continue to grow. It is also not clear what will be the fate of the large number of missing people.

Condemn this Brazen Horse-Trading

The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) on March 11 has issued the following statement

THE BJP has, once again, displayed its contempt for democracy by indulging in crass horse-trading to try and topple the Congress state government of Madhya Pradesh, exploiting some opportunist elements. This completely seeks to reverse the people’s mandate and demonstrates the BJP’s attitude, once again, towards democracy, people’s will and the rule of law.

Condemn Ban on Media Channels

CPI(M) Polit Bureau has issued the following statement on March 7

THE Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) strongly condemns the 48-hour ban  imposed on two Malayalam news channels, Asianet News and Media One,  by the information and broadcasting ministry. This drastic action by the Modi government is a direct assault on the media.

The reasons stated in the order cite criticism of the central government’s delay in acting, questioning the role of the RSS and alleged Delhi police inaction.

CPI(M)’s Appeal

THE Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) appeals to the people, to all Party state committees, sympathizers and supporters to collect funds for relief and rehabilitation work for those affected by the communal violence in Delhi. The Delhi state committee of the CPI(M) will be forming a Solidarity Relief Committee for this purpose.
