Inde : Le CPI(Maoist) dénonce les rumeurs répandues par la police

Le guérillero maoïste à la tête de l’organisation pour la division du Sud Bastar vient de publier un communiqué dans lequel il dénonce le gouvernement, la police et les médias qui ’attisent les spéculations et cèdent à la propagande’ à propos d’une prétendue scission entre les dirigeants telougou et les cadres tribaux du Bastar au sein du parti. "Les médias sont trompés par la police et le gouvernement qui répandent des rumeurs concernant une division entre les dirigeants du CPI(Maoist) parlant le telougou et les tribaux du Bastar. Les habitants de l’Andhra Pradesh et du Telengana qui travaillent pour le parti ne sont-ils pas des citoyens de l’Inde ?" a demandé Ganesh Uike, secrétaire du South Regional Committee du CPI(Maoist) dans ce communiqué de presse. "De nombreux dirigeants et cadres de notre parti, qui étaient originaires de zones en Andhra Pradesh et au Telengana ont sacrifié leurs vies en combattant pour les droits des tribaux du Bastar. Notre parti ne travaille en vertu des limites de castes, de principes, de religion, de secte et de région". Uike a conclu son communiqué par ces mots : "Notre parti a connu de nombreux hauts et de nombreux bas depuis sa naissance. Que ce soit la Salwa Judum ou l’Operation Green Hunt. Mais le public révolutionnaire ne se laisse pas tromper par la fausse propagande et soutien le parti pour intensifier la guerre populaire".

Maoist elements making inroads into urban areas- tells indian press

Maharashtra: Beware, naxals are at your doorsteps; CM admits to Maoist elements making inroads into urban areas
In an indication of the challenge before the state as it counters rising left-wing extremism (LWE), the Maharashtra government has admitted to Maoist elements making inroads into urban and industrial areas and touching a chord with the Dalit youth. In a written reply to a query by Jaywantrao Jadhav (NCP) in the monsoon session of the legislative council, chief minister Devendra Fadnavis, who also holds home portfolio, admitted that Maoist extremists are trying to create base in Mumbai-Nashik-Pune belt.
“It has come to light that in the urban and industrial belts in these areas, the Maoists are trying to clandestinely propagate their ideology and are creating an impression that they are raising their voice on Dalit issues and attracting Dalit youth to the Maoist movement,” noted Fadnavis. He said the ‘Naxal-promoted’ Kabir Kala Manch was being used to attract youth towards Maoist thought through art troupes and street-plays. Cases have been lodged against Naxal activists at Harsul, Mumbai, Pune and Talegaon Dabhade.
In reply to another question by Manikrao Thakre (Congress), Fadnavis said the police have been provided weapons, ammunition, communication equipment, helicopters and anti-landmine vehicles and added that area domination strategies were used to provide security to people. Apart from the paramilitary CRPF, the Cobra battalion, SRPF companies, the district police and the C-60 force have been deployed in Naxalite violence affected regions to counter the threat. Maharashtra has lost 159 police personnel since 2000 to Naxalite attacks while police have managed to kill 113 Naxalites. As many as 224 civilians were also killed by Naxalites during this period on suspicion that they were police informers.

“They are trying to capitalise on issues like Dalit atrocities and create law and order problems to bolster their ranks,” noted senior journalist Devendra Gawande, who has reported extensively from LWE affected areas and has authored the book ‘Naxalwadache Avhan’. “They are unable to get enough manpower in the rural areas and jungles and are hence shifting focus to cities,” said Gawande adding that little seems to be happening at the government’s level to check this. “Such tendencies rise because the problems of the oppressed are not solved through democratic means,” noted senior CPI leader Prakash Reddy. Former IPS officer Sudhakar Suradkar blamed the highly politicised police force for the state of affairs and noted that ‘injustice’ meted out to people is one reason why they turn to Naxalism

India maoist bandh in Magadh

GAYA: The 24 hour long bandh call given by the Maoists to register protest against alleged police excesses evoked limited response in Magadh division. The bandh impact was felt in Dumaria, Imamganj, Banke Bazar and Raushanganj police station areas of Gaya district and part of Madanpur, Deo and some other areas of Aurngabad district, say reports reaching the divisional head quarters. Life came to a near standstill in the Dumaria, Imamganj, Banke Bazar and Raushanganj police station area of Gaya district as roads including the state highway wore deserted look and shops, schools, offices and nationalised bank branches too remained closed.

Traffic on the always busy GT Road, the national highway criss crossing some of the worst affected naxal belts was less than normal. Elsewhere in the extra large division comprising five districts, life was near normal. According to Magadh Range DIG Ratn Sanjay, no report of any untoward incident has been received from anywhere in the Magadh police range. Six persons including Vijay Paswan, a Maoist have been arrested from two different places in the Aurangabad district but the arrests have nothing to do with the Maoist bandh and were made during the ongoing anti naxal operation.

   Statement of MLSPB/ Revolution Front on Suruç Massacre

To the people of Turkey, Kurdistan and Middle East
After the Rubar Qamışlo offensive ended up in victory and the reunion of Cizîrê‎ and Kobanê Cantons, the reactionary gang of imperialism and Turkish State oligarchy; ISIS (DAİŞ) carried out a vicious attack against our comrades who took the road with the slogan “We saved Kobanê together! We will build together!” due to the initiative that was planned for the reconstruction of Kobanê on the third anniversary of Rojava Revolution which had been declared to the public days before. Consequently the attack left tens of revolutionary socialists martyred and injured.
The accessory and goon of imperialism and zionism; ISIS, tries to achieve victory and supremacy by adopting such dirty and barbaric methods to destroy the gains of Rojava Revolution and to slaughter and threaten the people of Turkey and Kurdistan in order to overcome its repeatedly defeats.
However, ISIS won’t be able to crush the victorious, warrior will of Middle East’s sister communities who are joined at the hip with Rojava Revolution; YPG/YPJ and Revolutionary Internationalist Warriors of people of Turkey will definitely take revenge for this vicious attack. We, MLSPB/ Revolution Front (Marxist Leninist Armed Propaganda Force) once again call our people up for fight and victory!
LONG LIVE MIDDLE EAST REVOLUTION FRONT!

India - action of maoists and people's war

Maoists damage BSNL towers in Kisko
RANCHI: Maoists damaged two BSNL mobile towers at Kisko block in Lohardaga on Thursday disrupting telecommunications link in the district. Ranchi DIG Arun Kumar Singh said cadres of the CPI(Maoist), which called 24-hour Jharkhand-Bihar-Chhattisgarh bandh on Thursday to protest against the “fake encounter” of top leader Shivnandan Bhagat, blew up a mobile tower and torched another late on Wednesday night. “Police recovered a powerful explosive device from the site in the morning (Thursday),” Singh said. Kisko, which centrally located in Lohardaga, is one of the core areas of Maoist activities in the district.
Though the bandh hardly had any effect in the urban areas, it led to near shutdown in rural pockets in Gumla, where the “fake encounter” took place on July 25, and other Maoist-hit districts. Transport of minerals was affected. A police report said transportation of iron ore from West Singhbhum, bauxite from Lohardaga and coal from Bokaro, Ranchi and Ramgarh was disrupted. Operation at Upper Pat and Serangdag mines in Gumla came to a standstill due to the bandh. Over 600 bauxite-laden trucks did not ply. However, government offices and educational institutions were open. The national highways were patrolled extensively, but security was lax around the state highways.
“State highways through Giridih, Dhanbad, Dumka, Latehar, Chatra, Palamu and Maoist-hit districts were blocked on Wednesday night, but roads were cleared in the morning,” said a person who was travelling from Ranchi to Giridih. Inter-district buses did not ply and only a few long-route buses were spotted at night leaving hundreds of passengers stranded.DGP D K Pandey said police had made elaborate security arrangement ahead of Maoist bandh that was announced by the Maoists’ Bihar-Jharkhand Special Area Committee a week before. It however had a mixed impact in Dhanbad and Giridih. “The bandh passed off peacefully,” Giridih SP Kuldeep Dwivedi said. Dwivedi elaborate security arrangements were made in Bihar-Jharkhand border areas of which Giridih is a part.

The CPI(Maoist) has alleged that police killed Sylvester, who was the secretary of Bihar Jharkhand North Chhatisgarh special area committee of the rebel outfit and had a cash reward of Rs 25 lakh on his head, in cold-blood when he was unarmed and sleeping and there was no encounter as claimed by the police.

Manipur - repression, resistance and protest against brutality of state force

     MSAD and CPDM letter to the Naga Students’ Federation

At the very outset, we, the undersigned, condemn the Wuzu Massacre in Nagaland, on July 16, 2015, perpetrated by the combined forces of the Assam Rifles and Para Commandos. On that unfortunate day; baby Aso (13 years old) and master Tiizali (14 years old) were killed, Mrs. Esther Jorror (24 years old) was bullet injured, properties were destroyed, and the Wuzu village was inflicted with prolong psychological trauma. Having gone through the ground report prepared by the Naga Students’ Federation and the Naga Peoples Movement for Human Rights, we strongly condemn the misinformation propaganda that attempted to cover up the inhumane crimes that were mercilessly perpetrated on the innocent people of Wuzu Village. Simultaneously, we extend our solidarity to the proposed Kohima Rally against the Armed Forces Special Powers Act 1958, scheduled to be held on 23 July 2015, under the initiatives of the Naga Students’ Federation.
For several decades, ever since the Indian State took over on the Nagas, the progressive sections amongst the Nagas have been raising democratic voices with the hope to achieve a National Democratic Revolution. The response of the Indian State have been militaristic and divisive. The Indian State in collusion with the local reactions have been unleashing a reign of terror, to suppress the Naga democratic voices. It went side by side militaristic capitalist intrusion, that is, extraction of ‘super profit’ from the Naga resources, trade routes, markets, and labour. This unjust war, buttressed by the Armed Forces Special Powers Act, have been responsible for the subjugations, oppressions, coercions, disturbances, insecurities, and confusions amongst the larger bulk of the Nagas.
We extend our solidarity, because, we think that the ‘global’ character of capital inflows and extraction of surplus values in various forms, carried out through unleashing State terrorism (militarisation), affected peoples across community and territorial boundaries. The neighbouring small communities and territories in the Indo-Myanmar regions are economically and geographically closely interconnected to one another in such a manner that neither one can flourish without the rest nor the rests are immune from any destructive policy that affected one community or territory.
This tendency have been historically proven during the British colonial period, the World Wars, and the ongoing onslaught by the big capitalist forces. Therefore, there is always the need to encourage one another in the democratic struggles, learn from each other’s experiences, and build up coordination and unity. We uphold the principles: “Divided We Fall, United We Win” and “People United Will Never Be Defeated”. Solidarity to the leadership of the Naga Students’ Federation on the occasion of the Kohima Rally against AFSPA, on July 23, 2015.
Long live peoples’ democratic movement!
Long live people’s democracy!
