Solidarity with CPI Maoist and the Martyrs of the Indian Revolution!


The CPI Maoist is leading a unique and self-sacrificing resistance against the fascist Modi regime in India. In the midst of this struggle, we received the news on May 21 that Comrade Basavaraj, along with 27 other comrades, had fallen during a military siege. As General Secretary of CPI Maoist, he dedicated himself entirely to the revolutionary cause and led his party through the most difficult times. This loss is not only a heavy blow to the Indian revolutionary movement but to the revolutionary forces worldwide.
Since 2024, the latest counterrevolutionary offensive, called “Operation Kagaar,” has been launched against the CPI Maoist and the Adivasi people. In this brutal military operation, over 400 people have been killed so far, including 27 cadres of CPI Maoist. The Modi regime seeks to completely annihilate the CPI Maoist and the People’s Liberation Guerrilla Army (PLGA) in order to break the antifascist movement and the revolutionary power in the country. At the same time, the indigenous Adivasi people is also targeted by the fascist Modi regime; one-third of those killed by the fascist forces are Adivasi, and almost half are women. The Adivasi are not only supporters of the revolutionary movement but also active defenders of their lands.
With great respect and admiration for the legacy left behind by the martyrs, we commemorate and promise to continue the fight for socialism and the liberation of humanity with the same determination, carrying their banner to victory.
We call on all revolutionaries and internationalists to join the solidarity week for the martyrs of CPI Maoist, which has been declared from July 28 to August 3. We also demand the release of all political prisoners in India. The Eastern Regional Bureau of CPI Maoist has called for a nationwide “Bandh” (shutdown) to protest Operation Kagaar. This call is a strong sign of resistance and solidarity for the united fight in several Indian states. Furthermore, the ERB published an obituary for the fallen comrades, including Comrade Basavaraj and Comrade Vivek, a member of the Politburo. It is a direct call from CPI Maoist to continue the revolutionary struggle with the same determination.
In the face of worldwide growing repression and the existential crisis of capitalism, which is leading humanity into barbarism on many levels, we call on all to draw inspiration from the lives of the martyrs and to set ourselves on an even more determined and devoted course. The fight against imperialism and fascism requires this dedication and revolutionary violence to overcome the prevailing conditions. Let us strengthen our morale in the spirit of revolutionary internationalism. Our solidarity knows no boundaries: not only in India is an unjust war being waged against the people, but also in Palestine, the Zionist occupying power is waging a war of extermination against the people of Gaza. Our solidarity is with all those who resist fascism, imperialism, and colonialism and who break the counterrevolutionary front of the rulers.
