Maoist pamphlet warns Ministers, oil company
The Viplava Karmika Samkhya (VPS) of the CPI (Maoist) has sent a
pamphlet to a newspaper office in Nalgonda warning the management of Oil
Country Tubular Limited (OCTL) located at Narketpally, Ministers T.
Harish Rao and Nayani Narasimha Reddy and Nakrekal MLA Vemula Veeresham
on the issue of “removing about 500 employees from the company”. Signed
by VPS Secretary Azad, the two-page pamphlet alleged that the TRS
government had colluded with management of the OCTL.
According to the pamphlet, the management had been exploiting the
workers for e 30 years without following basic labour laws such as
payment of minimum wages and holidays. The VPS alleged the OCTL had not
even allowed the workers to form trade unions in the industry. About 25
officers working in six departments, belonging to high castes, were
harassing the workers, the pamphlet said. When some workers had formed a
trade union, the management had removed about 500 workers from the
duties nine months ago, the pamphlet said. These workers had staged
protest a number of times during these nine months and also met the
Nakrekal MLA, the Irrigation Minister and the Home Minister, but they
had refused to intervene in the matter, it said.
The pamphlet warned Executive Chairman of OCTL Kamineni Suryanarayana
and manager Venubabu saying that they would get the punishment of what
the exploiters of workers had been given in the past. The VPS asked the
newspaper to highlight “secret understanding of the TRS with
industrialists from Andhra”. The pamphlet asked the management and the
TRS leaders to be prepared to face the punishment in public court. The
VPS called upon people to respond on the injustice done to poor workers.

Maoists kill ‘informer’ in Jamui district
Munger: Maoists beheaded a police informer near the upgraded middle
school in village Charaiyan under Charkapathar police station area of
Sono block on the Sono-Khaira road in Jamui district on Wednesday.
Handwritten posters with the message, ‘Saar kalam kar diya gaya. Jan
adalat ka yahi faisla hai police ki mukhbiri karne ke liye’ (has been
beheaded. The jan adalat took this decision for a police informer), were
strewn around the body. Police said the man, in his 30s and in half
pant and vest, was beheaded with a sharp-edged weapon.
But the police could not identify the body till evening. The crime
was committed to create terror in the area dominated by Naxalites. Jamui
SP Jayant Kant said the deceased was an active member of the Maoist
group. He was punished for bungling some amount collected by him,
according to reliable information available with the police. The SP said
the Maoists were concealing the fact and playing blame game against the
police by throwing posters around the body which was sent to sadar
hospital, Jamui, for postmortem.
