Indian resources ( land , minerals , electricity and labour ) at low price to reap huge profits — it continues to be the duty of the leaders of Indian government to permit it .
90 percent of workers are working uncovered under labour laws . The remaining 10 per cent left in a state of non-execution of labour laws . On the contrary , the government has been campaigning that the laws are a hindrance for the Industrialists . Prior to Corona they enacted the three labour codes ( draft regulation – not the law ) and sought to devour workers ’ rights . They made some state governments to announce suspension of labor laws and increase working hours during Corona . After huge protests erupted , a called off the suspension but did not disclose their plan .
Unemployment and poverty have ascended during the Corona lockdown period . Small businesses , small scale industries are losing out . The cause of this challenging situation is attributed Corona . But if the market values of the Indian bourgeoisie and Foreign Capital in the stock market shoot up over the same period , one can understand how the burden is put on the common man .
This shows the high dependence of the Indian economic and political system . This dependence came to the crunch where it has to concede to foreign capital . When news came about World Bank opening its office in New Delhi , Com . TN said “ from now on the World Bank will control the budget of Government of India ”. But today not just the central budget , the World Bank controls the budgets of state governments and municipalities also . From the price of drinking water supply to tollgate charges , electricity charges , share of the people is decided by the World Bank . It directs on cutting down expenditure on education and health sectors . In the name of advanced services governments are executing every means to handover these sectors to foreign capital .
During Corona , this dependence has come out more
4 naked than before . The imposing and lifting of lock-down were blindly enforced following USA and they even followed the same United States in failure to handle the pandemic . The debate over when to open schools is on the similar lifes . This dependence is obscured by the slogan of “ Atma Nirbhartha ”.
The Indian government has been entangled in a policy of encircling China since Obama ’ s presidential period . India agreed to participate in United States , Japan and Australia efforts to tangle China . These policies in the name of strategic partnership , blindly supporting every response of US to China , has tainted the Indian government . Its journey is heading towards supporting even the US military atrocities .
People ’ s lives are shattered by these anti-people policies . New schemes are concocted to suppress the growing unrest among the people , introduced universal income schemes replacing the already existing popular schemes ; deposited money in farmers ’ bank accounts in the name of Raithu Bandhu ; deposited money in Jandhan Yojana accounts during corona and by applying different methods to deposit money ; by abolishing many of the existing popular schemes and depositing money directly in bank accounts the government wants to suppress public unrest .
Outrage is growing among the people with rising unemployment and poverty . Deviating the unrest by provoking caste , religion , region and nationalism is a cakewalk for Indian ruling class . The Tabligi- Jamaat meeting which had permissions from government months before we even knew about corona , framed as the reason for the corona outbreak , is an attempt to provoke anti-Muslim sentiment . Trump ’ s propaganda of China spreading corona to the world is used by the ruling regime to provoke Anti-China nationalism . At the same time , the electronic channels launched by RSS affiliates sought to turn old and outdated Hindu cultural values as rescue to the world , translating Hindu emotions into mania . Even in the gloom of this crisis , the ray of light is the people didn ’ t tumble to this evil propaganda .
As the growing anger among the people took the form of protests and resistance , the ruling classes resorted to brutal detention . The repression of the protests that went on over the Citizenship Amendment Act continued even during Corona . Communal riots were cooked in Delhi to diverge the protests and the students , intellectuals and participants were framed and arrested for the riots . The country ’ s Home Minister , seized the power to arrest and imprison anyone without a charge sheet anytime and anywhere . The Modi-Shah duo is bringing in the NIA to link gold smuggling , interreligious marriages and whatever they want to terrorism .
Doctors and nurses who were earlier called frontline warriors and showered with flowers are harassed for voicing the facts about Covid-19 and the inaction to handle it . Govt . sought to instill fear and zero tolerance for criticism of government policies on peoples ’ minds . No ruling class party is an exception in this regard .
By his thorough analysis of the situation prevailing up until 1970s Com . Nagireddy predicted the future consequences and we witness them today . As an alternative Com . Nagireddy gave a call to carry forward New Democratic Revolution , annihilation of feudalism , comprador bourgeoisie and their rule , and an end to the exploitation of imperialist hegemony . He firmly said no matter how many ups and downs come in the way the victory of the revolution is assured . The foremost duty of all of us is to follow the path shown by Com . Tarimela Nagireddy and continue to work for the victory of the New Democratic Revolution . ( It was written by P . Jaswantha Rao one month before on his last breath in Telugu . On the occasion of Com . TN memorial day on July 28 , 2020 )
