The fury of operation kgar is on the top
The Indian state is playing a holi of the blood of tribals and communist revolutionaries. The Indian state has launched a bloody military offensive against the communist revolutionaries in the tribal areas and against all the forces of resistance of the class struggle of the people, which has been named operation kgar. Its name indicates that this violent attack is final attack to crush the struggles of the tribal farmers and to completely wipe out the communist revolutionaries from these areas, as the government saying that this has to be ended. The BJP government of Chhattisgarh and Central Modi government have intensified military operation in these areas since last year and these operations have been given various names. Now there is a discussion about operation Kgar. In this bloody and oppressive campaign Indian military forces are carrying out operations in tribal belts adjoing Chhattisgarh such as Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Telegana and Odisha-Andhra border areas. In the first three months of this year, 150 people were killed in the name of police encounters, so far this number has crossed 200. The Indian state is putting price on the heads of communist revolutionaries and reward amount are being decided based on number of bodies. From Amit Shah to ministers, bureaucrats and police officers of the chhattisgarh are announcing the eradications of Naxalism by March 26. After a recent police encounter in Jharkhand, the state’s DGP announced that Naxalites will be wiped out from the Jharkhand in two to three weeks. This is being called the biggest military operations conducted by Indian government in the tribal areas to crush people’s struggles.
To
crush the struggles of the tribal farmers and the Maoist(communist
revolutionaries), the UPA government had first launched a fascist offensive
called Salwa Judum in 2005, under which Local tribals people were recruited as
goon gangs with the help of police and the army forces and attacks were carried
out on the struggling tribal farmers. In 2009, the Manmohan Singh’s Government
launched a military offensive called Operation Green Hunt and since then
continues oppressive military campaigns are being carried out in these areas
and now oppression Kagar is announcing the complete eradication of communist
revolutionaries. The responsibility of this eradication now lies with the Modi
Government, which is riding on its Hindutava fascist chariots and is waging
oppression against the people across the country and is engaged in the service
of Imperialist capital with its special form of Hindutva politics. The current
development of its communal politics in the country gives its more confidence
to launch such attacks against the people. This is because its oppressive fascist
rule in Manifesting itself even more actually in the tribal areas.
This
attack is intervened with the propaganda campaign against Maoist, which is full
of false propaganda ranging from portraying the Maoists as biggest threat to
the internals security of the country to being a major obstacle to development.
The Maoist revolutionaries have always
been a source of irritation in the eyes of Indian state because they fight to
overthrow the oppressive Indian state through a people’s revolution and create
a people's democracy. They are committed to preparing the people for this task
and leading the people’s struggles. The presence of the Maoists in the forest
areas and their role as an important resistance force of the people in the
tribal areas have made the Maoists a special target of Indian state’s wrath.
Because these forests are rich in innumerable valuable minerals and metals and
this presence of Maoist becomes an obstacle in the plans of the
imperialist companies and crony
capitalists who are hovering like vultures to grab these treasures. Therefore,
the Indian state, is removing this obstacle as a force of resistance of people
and presenting these forests and forest treasures in the service of imperialist
capital.The intention to give free reign to corporates to plunder in these
areas is the main reason behind the intensification of this attack .
Althrough the attack is being carried out in the name Maoist, its real
purpose is to eliminate all forms of resistance in these areas. Whether this
resistance is expressed through armed popular resistance or simple forms of
protest. Althrough Maoist are an important resistance force in these areas, but
they are not the only force, various organizations are active in these areas as
the leading forces of the class struggle of people. The Indian state is
presenting itself as not tolerating armed struggle , but in reality its aim is
to crush all forms of resistance in these areas. The People’s struggles are to
be wiped out and security forces are to be stationed in these areas for a long
time so that a fear free Environment is created for corporates. To do this a,
large scale displacement of tribals from the forest areas is also to be done.
All kinds of public rallies, public protests and demostration are also
prohibited and being crushed with
repression in these areas. Restrictions have also been imposed on mass
organization/ platforms.
What is
being done by Israel in Gaza Strip, the plans to displace the Palestinian
peoples are being implemented, the same brutal attacks are being carried out in
these areas. These are projects of destruction and complete displacement of marginalized
people within its own state by Indian state so that world imperialist Companies
can stay in these areas for a long time and plunder these lands at will. The Indian state is violating its own
constitution and law in the service of the global corporate world. Peoples are
being killed in broad daylight without any investigation, without any case, and
without any hearing. Democratic rights activists who raise their voices for the
rights of tribals and other oppressed people are also being declared as
Naxalites and thrown in jail.
For
these purposes, security camps have been
set up in deep forest areas of Chhattisgarh and a permanent presence of army
has been established here with these camps. There is currently an army camp
every two and half kilometers in Baster. Similarly, police stations have been
greatly expanded in Baster. The strength of security forces has been greatly
increased and various types of army and paramilitary forces have been deployed.
Roads have been greatly expanded in these areas so that the mobility of the
security forces can be facilitated. All kinds of rules are being flouted even
arial bombing is being carried out and surveillance is being carried out
through drones. The purpose of this terrible war campaign is not limited to
crushing resistance but is to instill terror in the minds of the tribal people
through terrible massacres so that the people cannot even think of challenging
the state’s looting projects. Therefore, The Indian government is planning to
carry out a major massacre.
It is a
well-known fact that this military offensive of the government has no concern
with the resolution or even hearing of the issues of people. The government has
spread a network of military campus in these areas, ignoring every level of
resistance and flouting every rule of law. The intention of crushing the
People’s movement by creating a massacre of the people are so clear that the
offer made by Maoist Party for talks does not mean anything to the government.
The Maoist Party has made offers of peace talks more than once and they have
also announced the unilateral halt to the attacks, but despite these steps, the
pace of government`s Operation has not slowed down, but rather announcements
are being made to wipe out the Maoist forces with greater speed.
This
approach of the government shows that the real issues for the Modi government
is not the challenge posed to the Indian state by the Maoist party, but the
real issue for the government is to spread and consolidate terror in the minds
of the people in the wild tribal areas. By crushing the armed and unarmed
resistance power the government wants to make the people renounce the very idea
of resistance. Whether there is a dialogue or not, what the Indian state want
to achieve is a permanent military presence in these areas, which is necessary
to advance the agreements made with corporate world. For such an intention the
current stance of opposing power is irrelevant. The intention of the condition
being imposed even during the negotiations is that the people give up their
right to struggle and surrender to Modi government and get out of the way of
the companies. Apart from this intention, no other intention is evident from
the statements of the government during the negotiations.
This
attack is on tribal farmers’ movement. This is on the lands of tribal farmers
because there are deposits of precious metals and minerals under these lands.
The entire peasant movement of the country should be concerned about this
brutal and bloody attack. The eyes of the same global corporate world are also
on the lands and crops of the relatively devolved agriculture areas. If there
is an abundance of the land these lands and crops, then there is an abundance
of minerals and metals in tribal areas. The global imperialist companies are
rushing to control both. The three agricultural laws and now the new draft for
agricultural marketing are for these purposes only. The havoc being wrecked on
the tribal farmers may seem like a distant happening today to the peasant
movement of the developed belts of the green revolution, but here too, The
Indian government has to do the same on instructions of the corporate world to
seize the crops and lands. Direct use of the army and false police encounters
will not be distant things. The movement of these areas will also have to face
such havoc soon. Revolutionary activities should highlight the common thread of
the struggles of the tribal farmers with the entire peasant movement struggling
against imperialist and feudal onslaught and should understand the importance
of the strength of the tribal peasant masses as the leading fighting force
within the entire peasant movement. The entire peasant movement should be
concerned about protecting this strength.
At this time the revolutionary, democratic and patriotic
forces of the country should raise their voices and demand that operation Kgar
be stopped immediately, the practice of the false police encounters should be
stopped, and kinds of political violence should be stopped. Security forces
should be withdrawn from tribal areas, military and police camps should be
dismantled, air and drone attacks should be stopped, local goonda gangs should
be disbanded immediately. All political prisoners and social democratic
activities should be released. The ban on all political and public
organizations included CPI Maoist should be removed. Black laws like AFSPA, NSA
and UAPA should be repealed. Agreements made with corporate companies should be
canceled.
