Speakers summarised the sustained mass resistance movements of Adivasis to protect their natural resources, the brutal neo-fascist state repression which fostered Brahmanical fascism and the merciless manner it robbed the Adivasis of land, forests and water, patronising loot of corporates. They recollected the state’s genocide unleashed to tear the fabric of the Maoist movement and crush all mass movements it has organised. Light was thrown on the need to unite all democratic forces into a cohesive force, to combat fascism.

Such gathering has significance in resurrecting the dreams of those who aspired to break the bondage of the people India from tyranny of imperialism, feudalism and capitalism and wave the banner of liberation to extinguish the nation from the forces of darkness. It gave crediblity to the resistance of the Maoists in Bastar and to the fact that Naxalbari is not dead and buried.
