COMMUNIST
PARTY OF INDIA (MAOIST)
CENTRAL
COMMITTEE
November
30, 2010
Dear
Comrades and Friends of Indian Revolution,
On
behalf of our Party, the CPI (Maoist), People’s Liberation Guerilla
Army (PLGA), Revolutionary People’s Committees (RPCs),
revolutionary mass organizations and revolutionary people of India,
firstly, we send our heartfelt Laal Salaam (Red Salutes) to all the
parties, organizations, various forums and individuals from India and
abroad, who had sent condolence messages to our CC and who had
condemned the brutal murders of comrades Cherukuri Rajkumar (Azad)
and Hemchand Pandey on July 1, 2010 by the fascist Indian ruling
classes. As all of you have acknowledged, losing comrade Azad is one
of the biggest blows
our
party and Indian revolution had suffered. Azad was one of the topmost
leaders in our party. He has been leading the Indian revolution since
a long time. In our country, People’s War is intensifying with each
passing day. With the aid and support of imperialists, particularly
the American imperialists, the Indian reactionary ruling classes are
trying to suppress the revolutionary movement and are carrying on
ruthless atrocities in an unprecedented severe manner. In this war
between the people and the ruling classes, the enemy had particularly
schemed to murder our leaders and concentrated on comrades like Azad
who are leading the revolution. It is as part of that conspiracy that
comrade Azad was caught and killed in the most brutal and cowardly
manner. Comrade Azad was leading the entire urban movement on behalf
of our Central Committee and was also looking after political
propaganda, party periodicals, party education and other such crucial
responsibilities. He was a most experienced and popular mass leader.
He maintained close relations with many comrades at various levels
and with the revolutionary masses. In the midst of severe repression,
he worked selflessly and unflinchingly in spite of the many risks
involved. It is under such circumstances that the enemy came to know
about his whereabouts somewhere and could catch him by laying in
wait.
Your
messages and condemnations released in the true internationalist
spirit had given the necessary moral support to the oppressed peoples
and the comrades who were grief-stricken with this shocking news. Due
to the severe repressive conditions here, we could not receive all
the messages and even the messages we received had reached us very
late. Hence we feel very sorry for this delay in sending you a reply.
Comrade
Azad was attracted to the revolutionary movement while he was
studying in the Warangal Regional Engineering College in 1972. Azad
who was exceptionally brilliant in his studies had played a dynamic
role in the revolutionary movement too. He played a role in the
formation of the Radical Students Union (RSU) in 1974. He was elected
as the state president of RSU in 1978. He was one of the founders of
the All India revolutionary student’s movement and guided it from
its inception in 1985. He played a key role in conducting a seminar
on Nationality Question in the then Madras city in 1981. Later he
took up the responsibility of building the revolutionary movement in
Karnataka and build up the Maoist party in this State for the first
time. He attracted many comrades like Saketh Rajan into the party.
When opportunistic elements tried to split the party in 1985 and in
1991, comrade Azad had played a crucial role in defending party line
and keeping it united and strong enough in defeating their
opportunist politics. He worked tirelessly for twenty years as a CC
member and Politburo member from 1990 till now. We cannot separate
Azad’s life from the history of revolutionary movement of the past
forty years. Particularly, he played a key role in the ideological,
political spheres, party education and running of periodicals. He
fulfilled the responsibility of the party spokesperson since three
years as ‘Azad’ in the most excellent and exemplary manner. He
used his intellect and sharp pen outstandingly in fighting back the
‘War on People’ led by the Manmohan Singh-Sonia-Chidambaram gang.
He stood as the powerful voice of the people against the rulers and
exploiters. In the development of the party’s political line, in
the development of the party, people’s army and mass organizations,
in expanding the movement, in the emergence of new democratic power
organs and in all the victories won, Azad’s ideological, political
work and practice played a key role. Unflinching commitment in face
of any odds and during the ebb and flow of the movement, great
sacrificing nature, selflessness, simple living, indefatigable work
for the revolution and for the interests of the people, astounding
study, study of changing phenomena in the society from time to time,
being with the people always are some of the great proletarian ideals
established by Comrade Azad. Though he is no more, it is undeniable
that he would serve as a revolutionary role model to every
revolutionary and particularly to the youth, students and
intellectuals.
Hemchand
Pandey was a progressive free lance journalist from Uttarakhand who
had used his pen to bring to light the plight of the poor oppressed
people of our country. He was killed as he could bring out the truth
behind Azad’s murder. The brutal murder of this pro-people young
budding intellectual is just another instance of the callousness of
the fascists.
You
have rightly condemned these ghastly murders by exposing the
conspiracy of the Indian ruling classes in killing Azad, which is to
crush the ever expanding revolutionary movement under the leadership
of CPI (Maoist) and to render the people and party leaderless. Azad’s
murder is the latest one in a series of such murders of our leaders
carried out in the name of ‘encounters’ for the past 40 years and
especially since the successful completion of our Unity Congress-9th
Congress in 2007. The government had declared CPI (Maoist) to be the
biggest internal security threat and launched many suppression
campaigns to crush the movement, the latest being Operation Green
Hunt, launched in mid-2009. This is the biggest offensive launched on
the revolutionary movement in India so far and it has resulted in
unprecedented destruction of lives and property of the people.
Extra-judicial killings of leaders and massacres of people are all
part of this counterrevolutionary multi-pronged offensive.
All
of you had condemned this war on Indian people, particularly on the
adivasis,
with right indignation and demanded that it be immediately stopped.
The people of revolutionary movement areas warmly remember this
international solidarity expressed by various parties, organizations,
individuals and the proletariat of various countries as this is
exactly the kind of support which must be extended to any genuine
movement of the people when it faces such fascist onslaught. We very
much appreciate this kind of support and solidarity and firmly assert
that we will reciprocate the same towards other fighting masses in
various parts of the globe. This kind of solidarity infuses great
confidence and reassurance among the fighting people that there are
not alone in their fight. It also points sharply one more time
towards the common enemies we all are facing, namely imperialism and
all kinds of reactionaries. It enhances the fighting spirit of the
people and helps them to advance the movement firmly. Our party,
PLGA, RPCs, Revolutionary Mass organizations, revolutionary people
and all progressive and democratic forces of our country exactly wish
for such unity and solidarity at the domestic and international
scale. This is extremely important to defend the people’s movement
and to advance it.
We
once again pledge before all of you that we would carry on the lofty
aims of all great martyrs of the world proletarian revolution
including Comrade Azad and announce that no amount of fascist
repression can subdue the fighting spirit of our Party and the
revolutionary people of India. We will march forward with renewed
determination braving all kinds of odds and making sacrifices till
the final victory. This is our promise to all the friends and
well-wishers of Indian revolution.
- LONG LIVE PROLETARIAN INTERNATIONALISM!
- LONG LIVE THE UNITY OF INTERNATIONAL PROLETARIAT, REVOLUTIONARY AND DEMOCRATIC FORCES AND THE OPPRESSED NATIONS AND PEOPLES ALL OVER THE WORLD!
With
revolutionary greetings,
(Abhay)
Spokesperson,
Central
Committee,
CPI (Maoist)
