Sushil Roy, a politburo member of the CPI(Maoist) to the CM of West Bengal, comrade Roy has been incarcerated in the jails of West Bengal and Jharkhand.

  • Messages of the CC, CPI(Maoist) on the Occasion of Martyrs' Week
    TENTH ANNIVERSARY OF THE FORMATION OF CPI(MAOIST) COMMEMORATIVE VOLUME Messages of the CC, CPI(Maoist) on the Occasion of Martyrs’ Week (2005-2014) CENTRAL COMMITTEE COMMUNIST PARTY OF INDIA (MAOIST) Foreword On the occasion of the ten years celebrations of the formation of CPI (Maoist), as part of our endeavor to republish a number of valuable party documents, we are publishing bringing out here a compilation of Messages for the Martyrs’ Memorial Week (observed every year) issued by the Central Committee, CPI (Maoist) since its formation on September 21, 2004. The Martyrs’ Memorial Week is observed every year from July 28 to August 3 to commemorate the countless martyrs of the new democratic revolution (NDR) in India and also the martyrs of the world socialist revolution. It was on 28 July, 1972 that one of the founder leaders of the party, comrade Charu Mazumdar, breathed his last in police custody due to the callous treatment meted out to him under inhuman illegal custody and neglect of his health by the authorities. The other founder leader of the party, comrade Kanhai Chatterji was martyred on 18 July 1982 due to ill-health. Since six women, two children and a peasant had laid down their lives in Naxalbari on 25 May 1967, thousands of comrades and people have been martyred in the course of the protracted people’s war (PPW) waged in our country for the victory of the NDR. The revolutionary movement strives to keep alive the memories of the martyrs through various forms – meetings, building of martyrs’ columns, publication of pamphlets, books, photographs, producing revolutionary literature, songs and cultural forms etc depicting their lives, contributions and sacrifices.

  • Atreyee Majumder2 I Hadn't Seen a Michheel1 in Close to a Decade
    Kneejerks and Fresh Starts: A History of Speakers and Authors of Protibaad ¢ £ ¤ ¤ ¥ ¤ ¦ § ¨ © £ ¦ ¤ ¨ © ¦ ¨ ¨ ¦ ¤ © § ¤ ¦ ¨ © £ ¦ ¨ Atreyee Majumder I hadn’t seen a michheel 1 in close to a decade. Until yesterday. Middle-aged Writers’ Buildings 2 officials, of Congress leanings, protested the attacks on Congress leaders in Burdwan saying that it was possible due to police apathy and negligence. There were hardly any banners, mostly slogans. Even as some tyres are deflated and buses burnt down in the heart of South Calcutta. The Congress is back with a bang, say the newspapers. These attacks have reinvigorated our workers. A Congress leader is quoted. A feeble identity that was getting increasingly engulfed by the grassroot diva of the state is now fed fodder .3 The good old pellet of political energy is back in fashion. The burning of the bus. I think of disparate scenes from Ray’ s4 Mohanogor , Gonoshotroo , and various Rituporno Ghosh films. Of middle-class dining tables, afternoon irritation, whirring fans, chilled bottles of water, khuchro 5 angst – the texture of all of it being sharpened by the din of a michheel in the background. Memories of gentry lives lived in their whole range of pains and pleasures – from khuchro prem 6 on lake-er dhaar 7 to political outrage to business rivalries – across a continuing din of cholbe na cholbe na .8 Protibaad 9 is a less popular word on graffiti these days. The words okormonyota ,10 noirajyo 11 – and various other versions of abyss, impasse, stagnation, anarchy – find adequate representation on posters of all parties. – My field notes, July 2009.

  • Communist Party of India (Maoist)
    COMMUNIST PARTY OF INDIA (MAOIST) CENTRAL COMMITTEE Press Release December 24, 2010 Serving people is not conspiracy! Supporting people’s struggles can never be sedition!! The Scamsters who amass billions of rupees are the real conspirators! The Gangsters who sell-out our country to imperialists are the real traitors!! Observe Protest Week from January 2nd to 8th, 2011 against the fascist Chhattisgarh government’s court judgments that sentenced Civil Rights activist Doctor Binayak Sen, Maoist leader Narayana Sanyal, trader Piyush Guha under sedition for life imprisonment and magazine editor Asit Sengupta for eight years imprisonment! On December 24, the Raipur district additional sessions court sentenced for life civil rights activist Dr. Binayak Sen, our party Politburo member Comrade Narayan Sanyal, trader Piyush Guha under IPC, Chhattisgarh Special Public Security Act and UAPA implicating them in false cases. The life sentences were pronounced by B.P. Verma under IPC section 124 (sedition), 120 B (conspiracy) and many other kinds of sentences were pronounced under various sections of CSPCA and UAPA. The eight year sentence for Asit Sengupta was pronounced on the same day by O.P. Gupta. Both these judgments are the latest additions to the huge cache of anti-people, fascist repressive measures of the Indian ruling classes. Sentencing for life our party Politburo member Comrade Narayan Sanyal, Binayak Sen, a doctor who had dedicated his life as a doctor serving the poor people selflessly, a prominent civil rights activist and the vice- president of PUCL and Piyush Guha, a trader belonging to Kolkata is the most shameless thing for the rulers to do even while boasting that this is the biggest democracy in the whole world.

  • Maoist Movement in India (N.T.Ravindranath) Dated: 29-12-2015
    Maoist Movement in India (N.T.Ravindranath) Dated: 29-12-2015 The Naxalite movement in the country originated in 1967 from a small village called Naxalbari in Darjeeling district of West Bengal. It started as a peasant uprising which erupted on May 25, 1967. This violent movement was led by Charu Mazumdar and Kanu Sanyal, two radical CPI-M activists, who were influenced by the revolutionary thoughts and teachings of Chinese communist leader Mao Tse Tung. Though the leftist government of West Bengal was able to suppress this movement with brutal force, this violent peasant uprising soon caught the fancy of many leftist intellectuals and young radicals in different parts of the country, leading to the formation of a number of small groups of left-extremists in different states who supported the violent path adopted by Charu Mazumdar in protecting the rights of poor peasants in Naxalbari. All these groups preached and justified violent means to ensure justice to the millions of poor, oppressed and exploited sections of people in India. Since the violent peasant uprising in Naxalbari had given the inspiration for the launch of the different left-extremist groups in India, all these groups came to be known as Naxal groups and their supporters are called Naxalites. With the upsurge of Naxalism, the Naxal groups from different states like Bihar, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, Orissa and West Bengal came under a common platform under the leadership of Charu Mazmdar and set up the All India Coordination Committee of Revolutionaries (AICCR) on November 12, 1967. It was renamed later as the All India Coordination Committee of Communist Revolutionaries (AICCCR).

  • Country Reports on Human Rights Practices - 2005 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor March 8, 2006
    India Page 1 of 31 2005 Human Rights Report Released | Daily Press Briefing | Other News... India Country Reports on Human Rights Practices - 2005 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor March 8, 2006 India is a longstanding multiparty, federal, parliamentary democracy with a bicameral parliament and a population of approximately 1.1 billion. Manmohan Singh was named prime minister following his Congress party-led coalition's victory in the April-May 2004 general elections in which 675 million citizens participated. The 2004 general elections, the various 2004 state assembly elections, as well as the February state elections in Arunachal Pradesh Jharkhand, Bihar and repoll in October/November, and Haryana, were considered free and fair, despite scattered episodes of violence. While the civilian authorities generally maintained effective control of the security forces there were frequent instances in which elements of the security forces acted independently. The government generally respected the rights of its citizens; however, numerous serious problems remained. Government officials used special antiterrorism legislation to justify the excessiveuse of force while combating active insurgencies in Jammu and Kashmir and several northeastern states. Security force officials who committed human rights abuses generally enjoyed de facto impunity, although there were reports of investigations into individual abuse cases as well as punishment of some perpetrators by the court system. Corruption was endemic in the government and police forces, and the government made little attempt to combat the problem, except for a few instances highlighted by the media.The lack of firm accountability permeated the government and security forces, creating an atmosphere in which human rights violations often went unpunished.
