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.

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.
