Modi is by far a brutal suppressor of human rights. He is getting
less and less tolerant of those who verbally challenge his regime. He has also
tried, as have other Indian leaders, to suppress the Maoist insurgency.
Democracy for industrialized nations, as the US , just means elections and some
lip service to human rights. It does not have much to do with people deciding
how they want to live their lives. Capitalist democracy is always about wealthy
people using elections as a way to enforce their business interest. Most of the
common working people are only bystanders who vote and then wait for the system
to decide how they will live over the next few years. This is why Maoist in
such countries develop support from the people. And when such support grows
wide enough, "the white-gloves come off" and such nations "show
their true colors." We all need to support those who have dared to criticize the Modi Regime.-សតិវអតុ
The following article goes into detail and the fascist nature of the
Modi regime, from People's
Review:
The
Operation Green Hunt reached the urban landscape long ago, and in tandem with
the brutal war waged against the poor tribal people of the mineral-rich zones
of India, the oppressive state machinery has launched a concerted attack on
those voices that echo support for the cause of the marginalised and oppressed
people, who are subject to the grotesque sadist state’s pleasure-seeking
exercise every day and night. At the early morning of 6 June 2018, when
the Maharashtra Police arrested Advocate Surendra Gadling,
General Secretary of Indian Association of People’s Lawyers and the lawyer of
arrested Prof Dr GN Saibaba, Prof Shoma Sen, Head of Department of
English, Nagpur University, Sudhir Dhawale, the editor of Vidrohi from Mumbai,
Rona Wilson, the Public Relations Secretary Committee for the Release of
Political Prisoners and Mahesh Raut, an anti-displacement activist from Bharat
Jan Andolan and a former Fellow at Prime Minister’s Rural Development (PMRD)
for Gadchiroli District, it became clear that a terrified Indian state under
the utmost unapologetic Hindutva fascist regime of Narendra Modi is leaving no
stones unturned to achieve its target of neutralising and annihilating people’s
democratic resistance against its policies that are targeted against the
tribals, the Dalits and the Muslims, lest these forces dig a grave for the
fascist mobocracy that rules India.
What
made the Maharashtra Police to arrest these activists from Delhi
and Maharashtra ? The police of the BJP-ruled
state are driven by a vengeance against the left-democratic forces who are
speaking up against state terror in Gadchiroli, the caste oppression laden on
the Dalits of the state by the upper-caste feudal landlords and rich farmers
and the corporate houses that are trying to annex land of the farmers and the
marginal communities to build up huge real estate projects. The activists were
arrested this time because the police have accused them of playing a crucial
role in the outbreak of violent clashes between the Dalit activists and
upper-caste Hindutva thugs in Bhima Koregaon this January. One Dalit was killed
in the violence, which resulted in a state-wide anti-BJP and anti-Hindutva
agitation of the Dalit community. The RSS strongmen, who were accused by the
Dalits of inciting violence and leading the murderous Brahmanical thugs, remain
scot-free till date, while those activists who have steadfastly fought against
feudal, casteist and corporate attacks on the poor, are now thrown behind the
bars as the police want them to confess that they are “Maoist” conspirers.
The
corporate-controlled Indian mainstream media is milling the same press release
of the police as gospel truth by projecting the arrested men and woman as
“urban Maoists” who are spreading violence. The Maoists happen to lead one of
the longest-running armed struggles against the Indian state machinery with an
aim to overthrow it and to establish a people’s democratic state of the poor
and marginalised people in its place. Thousands of communist rebels, known as
the Naxalites or Maoists, have died in India fighting against an
oppressive state machine. The continuous oppression laden on the poor and the
marginalised by the Indian state and its bankrupt character has inspired
thousands of young men and women to join the
militant movement since last five decades. The Indian state, irrespective of
which of the coalition that serves the ruling classes is in power, labels the
activists who question its ways as Maoist and then jails them. Similarly, the
Indian state jails Muslims by framing terrorist charges against them, as the
Islamic terrorism is a fancy tale that the international monopoly and finance
capital has invented to divert the people’s attention from real burning issues.
Though the courts will let genociders like Maya Kodnani, Amit Shah and
other Hindutva terror mongers free, the Muslims, tribals and Dalits languish in
jails for a longer time and they don’t get bail soon. It’s only after decades
behind the bar, that these people are released after the police-planted stories
are quashed in courts; however, not after such stories do well in the press and
penetrate deep inside
the mind of the average Indian middle-class and upper-middle class to help
them form an
Islamophobic opinion.
