After withstanding 13 year-long imperialist-backed civil war and international sanctions, the sudden collapse of Assad regime in Syria within 12 days, is the outcome of a host of factors, the most important being the fall-out of inter-imperialist conflict in Ukraine and Zionist aggression on Palestine. Russia’s preoccupation with Ukraine war and its abrupt withdrawal from Syria based on a reported deal with US president-elect Trump, even as Biden Administration is increasing its arms-supply to Ukraine, coupled with the shift in priorities of Iran, the strong ally of Assad and weakening of Hezbollah like forces in the war with Israel are the immediate factors facilitating the fall of Assad regime which was in deeper political-economic chaos, with its GDP declining from $ 68 billion in 2011 to $ 9 billion in 2013!

This enabled the anti-Assad forces, especially the Turkey-backed Islamist Hayat Tahir al-Sham (HTS) and its ally Syrian National Army (SNA) and others like Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) patronised by US to advance towards Damascus  and capture power forcing Assad to seek asylum in Russia. Taking advantage of the situation, the Israeli regime, the US imperialist military outpost in West Asia, amid its horrific genocide in Gaza, had unleashed around 400 missile strikes on Syria and is in the process of its biggest occupation of Golan heights inside Syria, for which, it has announced a $11 million plan of doubling it’s population there.

Now,  the Islamist militia HTS,  backed by both Turkey and US and indirectly by NATO forces, now in major hold over the Syrian regime, lacks an ideological- political economic orientation  needed for overcoming the biggest downturn of Syria and, as such, there is little hope of any improvement in the living conditions of the masses in the days ahead. Meanwhile, with Turkey on the North and Israel from the South, both directly backed by US imperialism, are going to play their respective destabilising roles in Syria. Definitely, other countries, Jordan, Iraq and Lebanon from other sides, and other gulf countries having varying links with different forces in Syria, the coming days will be of utter chaos and unpredictable, especially in view of the experiences from US role in Afghanistan, Iraq and Lybia.

Meanwhile, Russia will have to take extra efforts if it wants to protect its sole naval base in Mediterranean, along with its air base in Syria. At the same time with history’s largest military budget of $895 billion, the US, and led by it, the NATO forces and all far-right regimes of Europe will utilise the political vacuum and chaos in Syria for their heinous geopolitical agenda including destabilization of the entire West Asia. In the immediate context, the regime that is taking charge there will be a tool of imperialist manoeuvring, while Syria with its strategic location is going to be one of the most important geopolitical hotspots in West Asia. The most serious threat of all is that the developments in Syria will act as a catalyst for intensification in imperialist-Zionist horrors on the most persecuted Palestinians, and its escalation to entire West Asia.

Most painful of all is the inhuman response on the part of European powers which generally welcomed the downfall of Assad. For, many EU imperialist regimes led by Germany have already issued threats against Syrian asylum-seekers and of massive  deportation of Syrian refugees, as HTS advanced towards Damascus. The irony is that during Assad’s rule there was a tacit encouragement from EU sources for massive exodus from Syria.

At this critical juncture, it is the task of all democratic, progressive and revolutionary communist forces the world over to rise up in solidarity with the exploited and oppressed people of Syria, and unite with all like-minded forces there in resisting, and keeping away the heinous machinations of all reactionary forces, especially the US-Zionist axis. It also requires the intervention on the part of working class and all oppressed peoples of the world with an ideological-political clarity to rise upto the ocassion with a political alternative to imperialism and fascism that carry on holocaust upon holocausts on world people.

In this context, CPI (ML) Red Star declares its wholehearted solidarity with all democratic, revolutionary and like-minded forces in Syria and the world over in the uncompromising struggle for democracy and liberation of Syria from imperialists and their lackeys of all hues.

The High-Level Committee (HLC) constituted in September 2023 and headed by former President Ramnath Kovind for examining the issue of holding simultaneous elections, has submitted its Report on 14 March 2024. The Modi Cabinet that approved the suggestions of HLC on 12 December 2024 has decided to introduce the draft legislation for simultaneous polls to Lok Sabha and Assemblies in the ongoing winter session of the parliament. Since a separate constitutional amendment that require the ratification of state assemblies is needed for simultaneous elections to Local bodies, it will be taken up separately.

After the formal adoption of India as a republic in 1950, during 1952, 1957, 1962 and 1967, both Lok Sabha and Assembly Elections were held simultaneously.  However, on account of the subsequent premature dissolution of Lok Sabha and Assemblies on many occasions, elections to them started at different times. Since then, recognising this concrete reality, no serious discussion had been there in the political mainstream on conducting simultaneous elections to Lok Sabha and Assemblies. And in spite of all round decay and degeneration of ruling class politics, the period since 1960s also saw the emergence of many regional and state-level parties, often aspiring for states’ specific-issues both at the regional and state-level.

However, the rapid growth of RSS and its numerous affiliates in the post-Emergency neoliberal situation beginning with the Ram Janmabhoomi movement culminating in the demolition of Babri Masjid in 1992 altered the political discourse in the country. RSS’ pan-Indian majoritarian homogenizing drive with BJP as its political tool got a boost with the ascendancy of Vajpayee regime. Its initiation of the most regressive neoliberal indirect tax regime, first VAT and then GST, that took away the federal rights of states over taxation, laid down the economic basis for this unitary move. Integrally linked up with this and backed by the hard-work of leaders like Advani, who was the most ardent proponent of simultaneous elections, the Law Commission under Vajpayee regime, firmly imbibing the unitary agenda, had come forward with its proposal of simultaneous elections to Lok Sabha and Assemblies in 1999 itself.

With the coming of Modi government in 2014, the idea of simultaneous elections got a big push when the NITI Aayog, that replaced more than six decade-old Planning Commission in August 2014. For, the NITI Aayog presided over by Modi in 2017 published a Working Paper one-sidedly highlighting a number of benefits of simultaneous elections such as reduction in election expenditure, increased voter turnout, improved governance, reduced disruption to public life, reduced frequency of elections and associated costs, etc. Its Paper cunningly kept silence on the harmful consequences such as advantages of the ruling party at centre, undermining of federalism and diversity of sub-continental India, etc.

The anti-federal clamour for simultaneous elections got a further push since Modi.2 onwards, and revealingly, though BJP lacks a majority-mark in parliament under Modi.3, the pan-Indian unitary drive is intensifying without any let up. Appointment of Kovind Committee in September 2023, it’s submitting of the Report in March 2024, Cabinet approval of it in December 2024 and its introduction to the winter session of Parliament, all in break-neck speed, are inseparable from the maddening Hindurashtra offensive by RSS-led Sangh Parivar. If not resisted and defeated, it will be disastrous for the country and its many diversities of sub-continental proportions. And, the ‘one nation one election’ agenda will subvert state issues in the guise of national issues.

Simultaneous elections to Lok Sabha and Assemblies at this juncture, by sidelining and overshadowing specific issues confronting different linguistic and ethnic communities, disproportionately benefit All India parties, especially the ruling party at the centre, and will dilute the relevance and influence of state-level political forces. If implemented, it will be detrimental to the federal structure of Indian state. The logistical issues connected with the availability of EVMs in elections in India, world’s most populous country, are yet to be discussed. According to preliminary reports, for simultaneous elections, the Election Commission has to more than double the number of EVMs, which itself, if successful, will take a time-span of minimum three years. Since Indian manufacturers may not have the capacity to double output of machines even after scaling up, foreign companies may enter to fill the gap, especially regarding procurement of chips and other crucial materials, with unforeseen consequences in conducting elections.

To be precise, coming to the core issue, the idea ‘one nation one election’ is an outright superimposition of a unitary and anti-federal agenda in tune with similar moves like one language, one culture, one police, and so on. It is a draconian, fascist drive over multi-lingual, multi-cultural, multi-ethnic and federal India. We appeal to all democratic, secular and anti-fascist forces and all well-meaning people to unitedly come forward challenging and defeating this fascist move

In Solidarity with CPI (ML) Red Star and its PB Member Com R Manasayya; Against RSS- Sri Ram Sena Threat on Com R Manasayya and Party

On 06.12.2024, a mass protest march and public meeting were held by various Dalit organizations, intellectuals and progressive sections under the leadership of Dalit Joint Forum against RSS- Sri Ram Sena Fascist threat on CPI (ML) Red Star Polit Bureau Member and TUCI General Secretary Com R Manasayya. Furious on the fierce ideological and political offensive by Com Manasayya against Manuvadi Brahmanical Hindutva forces, the ideological base of RSS-led Hindutva fascism, Sri Ram Sena, has been continuously threading Com R Manasayya. Various progressive forces and secular democratic intellectuals have come forward to protest against this fascist threat on Com Manasayya and the movement led by him in Karnataka.

As a part of these, various Dalit organizations and intellectuals organized the protest march and public meeting at Lingasur in Raichur District of Karnataka. During the protest march and public meeting, the leaders and speakers represented by various organizations emphasized the united struggles against the fascist move towards Hindurashtra, against the implementation of Manusmriti, against Hindutva Fascism and the importance of upholding Democratic values and principles of the Indian Constitution. The speakers also condemned the venomous statements and speeches of the notorious President of Sri Ram Sena, Pramod Mutalik, who demanded and threatened to deport the leader of the oppressed masses, Com R Manasayya, from Raichur district.

After the public protest meeting, the organizers handed over the letter to the Assistant Commissioner, addressed to the Home Minster. The letter demanded the State Government intervene and take the required steps to curb this fascist offensive. After Com R Manasayya issued a statement on 17th November against Sri Ram Sena and their leaders who insulted Dr Baba Saheb Ambedkar by equating him and putting his photo with Fascist V D Savarkar, after this statement, Sri Ram Sena and their leaders were threatening Manasayya publically and demanding his apologies. They also announced a ‘funeral march’ of Manasayya to his house if he did not apologize. The Dalit Joint Platform leaders stated in their letter to the Home minster that if the state does not interfere with the required steps by taking appropriate legal action against these fascist leaders and if the state does not give necessary protection to Manasayya, they shall go ahead expanding peoples’ protests from Taluk to Taluk and District to District level and provide people’s protection to the leader of the oppressed masses in Karnataka.

The protest program was jointly led by Karnataka Dalit Sangarsh Committee (Bhimavada) leaders Sri Lingappa Parangi and Mohan Gosli Karadakala, Lingasagur Taluk Chalavadi Mahasabha leader Sri Sanjeevappa Hunukunti, Dalit leader Sri Hanumanthappa Kunekallur, Dalit leader Sri Kuppanna Hosamani, SCST Association leader Sri Jamadagni Kotha and Umesh Aihole, Dalit Sangharsha Rakshana Vedike (Narayana Gowda Bana) leaders Sri Jilani Pasha and Hanumantha Nayaka, Karnataka Vijaya Sene leaders Sri Hanumantha Badiger and Rangappa, Karnataka Rakshana Vedike (Shivaramegowda Bana) leaders Sri Mahadeva Sarjapura, Hanumantha Chalavadi leaders CPIM Mudagal Hobli unit, AIRWO association leader Rukmini, RCF leader M Gangadhara, Adesh Naganoor, Chidananda Lingasura TUCI leader Shri Chinnappa Kotriki and Shri Tipparaj Gejalagatti, KRS leader Veerabhadrappa Hadapada, Sharanabasava Echanala.

Reason 2) R Manasayya is one of the leaders of the movement for an alternative culture by linking Ambedkarism-Marxism with India’s Lokayat Buddha, Siddha, Sharana, Sufi and Arudha tradition of thought and practice.

Reason 3) At every stage, he is exposing the true color of the Vedic Hindu Vedas, Agamas, Puranas, Shastras, and logics, and is promoting the ideas of Buddha Basava Ambedkar and Karl Marx through his brilliant speeches.

Reason 4) He has been in the forefront of the activity which is exposing step by step the anti-Dalit Backward Classes machinations of Vedic reservation.

Reason 5) He opened the Raichur Shahinbhag camp against CAA-NRC-NPR and played an important role with Dalit Muslims and progressives in the 74-day and night long struggle.

Reason 6) He is among those who organized the Veda Sammat Maha Mamsa Bhojan Koota (beef festival) held in front of the Raichur District Collector’s office in 2009 and launched the big movement for the right to food of Indians.

Reason 8) R. Manasayya is giving a very eloquent speech in the open campaign to expose the true colors of the Veerashaiva and Lingayat mutt leaders who carry the Manusmriti on their shoulders and call themselves Basava… Basava… in their mouths.

Reason 9) Recently, Sri Kodekal Basavanna Shakha Matha Amaragyana Peetha has established and has ignited the spark of a cultural rebellion to promote the Kodekal Amara Kalyana tradition and the valuable popular literature of the country’s philosophical scholars. More than 200 bhajan groups have come out to sing in favor of the people’s philosophy against the foolish caste system and religious differences. Amaragyana Peetha has come into action with a vision of uniting all the non-Vedic tradition Matts of Karnataka. R Manasayya is working as the president of this registered Amara Gnana Peetha.

Reason 10) He is the main guide in the recent land struggle of Karnataka Raitha Sangha AIKKS for the additional thousand acres of land of Nadagouda in Jawalagera. His role is also very important in the two-decade land struggle in which 10600 acres of additional and other land was distributed to the landless Dalits and backward classes in the twin districts of Koppal and Raichur. He has also strongly raised the demand for additional land distribution of the matts.

Reason 11) He played a leading role in TUCI, which made 492 contract workers permanent in the Hutti gold mine in 2013, leading the struggle to shape the future of tens of thousands of workers.

R Manasayya played a role as a charioteer in the struggle of the Karnataka Raitha Sangh AIKKS, which led to the payment of bills and the halt of work.

Reason 13) The speech given by R Manasayya, who received the “Lifetime Achievement Award” at the Karnataka State Scientific Conference held in Lingasagur on December 31, 2023, has exposed the anti-farmer, anti-labor, anti-Dalit and anti-national color of the Modi government.

Reason 14) R Manasayya’s thoughtful speeches in religious philosophy meetings of several monasteries have started to gain public recognition.

Reason 15) R Manasayya, a staunch supporter of the CPIML Redstar Communist Party, played a key role in organizing the anti-fascist conference at the RSS headquarters in Nagpur on March 10, 2023.

Reason 16) Similarly, R Manasayya gave a strong rebuttal to Pramod Muthalik’s Hindu Rashtra speech at the Sri Ram Sena parade program at Hatti Gold Mine on November 16. He thundered that Hindu Rashtra is not possible, India belongs to everyone here.

Reason 17) The poet, thinker, and brilliant orator has been in the struggle arena for four decades, mainly as a comrade of the working class and the oppressed people.

Reason 18) He is a senior leader in the Dalit farmer-worker struggle arena who continued to fight despite 132 police cases filed by class enemies and the authorities.

Reason 19) Born as the son of a serf and an untouchable in a village with powerful landlords, he is fighting today as a member of the Politburo of the CPI(ML) Red Star Party and All India General Secretary of the Trade Union Center of India through the People’s Support People’s Defense Movement.

Reason 20) Most importantly, he is achieving primary success in bringing the Dalit weaker section youth who belong to the Sangh Parivar back to the people’s fold.

Reason 21) He has gone down to the depths of the people as a revolutionary artist who learns and teaches under the banner of the Dalit, farmer, laborer and communist movement.

Foreign company Harrisons is challenging the people of Kerala by taking the district administration’s move to take over a small portion of the HML and Elston estates that is required for rehabilitation under the Disaster Management Act 2005.

Just as the resettlement of Puthumala, Pettimudi and Kavalapara disaster victims is not done, Mundakai resettlement cannot be allowed to remain uncertain.

Harrisons is a foreign company that has illegally occupied hundreds of thousands of acres of land in Wayanad and other districts, leaving tens of thousands landless and homeless, including plantation workers and tribals.

The mainstream Left party that came to power in 1957 abandoned even the slogan “Land to the tiller.”

In the name of the protection /conservation of the plantation economy, the ruling so-called

The ‘ left’ government subordinated land laws to colonial interests. In 2016, Dr. M. G. Rajamanickam tabled a Special Officer’s report to the Pinarayi Vijayan government that advised the Pinarai government to confiscate all the 525,000 acres of plantation land illegally held by the illegitimate foreign plantation mafia. But Mr. Pinarayi Vijayan kept this report in cold storage.

Harrisons, Elston and the government are also colluding on the issue of land to resettle the disaster victims. As part of that, the company filed a case in the High Court against the government’s order to acquire land under the Disaster Management Act, and the government informed the court that it will not acquire the land until the court orders. It also assured that compensation would be paid for the land vested with the government. This is a betrayal of the disaster victims, a challenge to the people of Kerala, an insult to the progressive forces and a sabotage of rehabilitation.

Since the government was not very keen to enforce the laws of the land and enhance rehabilitation by capturing the government’s own land, our Party, CPIML RED STAR, launched an indefinite strike at the Wayanad Collectorate, raising the slogans below.

A mass march to the headquarters of the HML company, which is subverting rehabilitation, was part of strengthening the strike of the disaster victims in front of the Wayanad Collectorate for the last 100 days under the party’s leadership.

All delegates, leading comrades and represented by all states, returned to their places firmly resolving to march forward with Plenum decisions, based on the ideological–political line of the party and to intensify the struggle in the path of its tasks.

Trump’s electoral victory is a rare instance of a former US president facing felony charges and other serious crimes being relected as President. It shows the extreme cultural decay and degradation of ruling class polittics today. The ascendancy of far-right and neofascist  Trump as the 47th President of US also underscores the political bankruptcy of the Democratic Party and the Biden regime, who in the absence of a viable political alternative to domestic economic crisis or to the Palestine  question, were tailing behind and playing second fiddle to Trump throughout the election campaign.

Of course, Trumpism, quite reminiscent of Reaganomics of the late 1970s and early 1980s that inaugurated neoliberalism following the collapse of Keynesianism, is rooted in a far-right, ultra-nationalist, isolationalist and protectionist policy with the motto ‘America First’. Domestically, Trumpism, with its conspicuous intimacy with corporate giants including Musk-like richest billionaires coupled with US Military-Industrial-Complex, stands for unfettered and uncontrolled operation of finance capital, minimum corporate taxes and abolition of all state-led welfare programs and social security measures.  All these, including the anti-working class and anti-people policies associated with Trumpism will further intensify the inherent social crises and tensions in US society.

Hailed as a neoconservative Evangelist, racist, xenophobic, mysogynist and Islamophobic, Trump’s stand against working class, asylum-seekers, immigrants, indigenous people together  with African-Americans and Hispanics and all oppressed including women is already known. Under Trumpism, while thier living condition in US is going to deteriorate further in the days ahead, the ground is ready for horrific levels of corporate weath accumulation leading to hitherto unknown levels of inequality in US.

In relation to the Palestine question in particular, Trump’s priorities will be dictated by the interests of US Military-Industrial Complex. It was Trump, who as President in his previous term, took the initiative for making Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, thereby st on the wounds of Palestinians. In conformity with this, he has already appointed diehard Zionists and neo-conservatives as his policy advisers and administrative heads. Today, around 20 percent of US foreign aid directly goes to Israel alone which is likely to go up further under Trump, with its genocidal repercussions on Palestinians and across West Asia.

 Since ‘America First’ is Trump’s basic foreign policy orientation whose essence is protectionism and isolationism, concrete and accurate evaluation of it would be in order after his formal ascendance to the throne in January 2025. However, as a real-estate tycoon, and in view of his pro-corporate approach to international relations, Trumpism as the policy of US, the supreme arbiter of postwar neocoloniam, will be highly detrimental from the perspective of global community. This became self-evident when Trump announced US’ formal withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement in November 2020, even as American imperialism is notorious as one of the biggest carbon emitters in the world. No doubt, US neocolonial plunder and loot of Afro-Asian-Latin American countries will contune without any letup under Trump, with its consequent manifestations in inter-imperialist contradictions.

Obviously, all neofascist regimes and far-right forces the world over are enthusiastic after Trump’s victory. This is more so in the case of India’s fascist Modi regime , patronised by RSS. Modi government’s close affinity with Trump administration during their first term itself was much discussed. More specifically, Evangelism, Zionism and Saffronism have the same wavelength in thier anti-Muslimness or Islamophobia. Modi regime’s open and secret dealings with the US-backed Zionist Netanyahu government are to be viewed in this context. Following neofascist/Islamophobic Trump ‘s victory, like the Republican-Jewish Coalition, Republican-Hindu Coalition is also poised to have a greater say in Trump’s policy-making. To be precise,  therefore, Trump’s ascendancy to power for a second term calls for resolute and concerted intervention on the part of international proletariat and oppressed peoples together with all anti-imperialist and anti-fascist revolutionary-democratic forces the world over.
