By Harsh Thakor
Immortal Comrade Sona Suman for 52 years illuminated the torch of Naxalbari. Faced severe torture but rose like aPhoenix
from the Ashes from the deepest depths of despair. He played a major role in
steering the activities and shaping the Krantikari Pendu Mazdur Union and all
the democratic movements condemning Operation Greenhunt and Hindu Fascism. A
major architect in the successful homage programmes for late Comrade Shamsher
Singh Sheri, Earlier before 2003 an activist of the Lok Morcha Punjab and a
mass activist of the Central Team Group of Communist Party India (Marxist
Leninist). Sunam consistently played the role of a catalyst in all major
democratic events and with utmost zeal defended the Maoist movement in
Dandkarya, A great inspiration for younger cadres who he nurtured like flowers growing.
Today around 450 people converged at his homage meeting at Sunam village
shimmering the red spark of resistance at its crescendo. A most qualitative
memorial meeting was held in Sunam in igniting the spark of anti fascist
resistance with speakers highlighting the movement opposing the National
Register of Citizens (NRC) and Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). It is this
very spark Comrade Sunam galvanized all his life in inspiring people’s
movements. The most qualitative resistance of the Krantikari pendu mazdoor Union owes a lot to Comrade Sunam and the rise of student
and youth cadre.
Tragically he perished in a road accident on February 10th.He was 71 years old
Fraternal organizations like Lok Sangram Manch, Revolutionary People’s Front. Krantikari Pendu mazdoorUnion , Punjab Radical Students
Union etc participated and comrades addressed like Swaranjeet Singh,Darshan Pal,
Baseshwar Ram,Sanjeev Mintu etc.
He may have departed but his soul lives on as a beacon to enable new red roses to be resurrected and bloom in the dark hour of fascism.
