Conclusion
For decent , safe and secured lives of people , the sectors of Health , Education , Transportation and Electricity must be in the Public Sector only . One of the demands of the present ongoing farmers ’ struggle that is continuing since a year is the abolition of Electricity Amendment Bill , 2020 . Contrastingly , the present monetization programme intends to transfer the assets related to Electricity sector to Monopoly Capital in the name of lease . This is the exploitation tool of imperialists . The factor behind the brutal incident that happened in 2012 in Delhi , known as the Nirbhaya incident , is the lack of Public Transportation system . This was clearly revealed by justice Verma committee . What about the Hajipur incident that occurred last year in Telangana in which three women were raped and murdered owing to the lack of Public Transportation system ? This is the factor that caused the deaths of many pregnant women who could have been saved had there been public transportation to move them to hospitals in time . With these state of affairs can we reduce maternal mortality rate ?
One important dimension which is highly harmful to they out has well as to the society due to the transfer of transportation sector to powerful corporate forces . In the case of transportation of drugs and human trafficking , is it possible for the intelligence officials to enter check them strongly in the ports , airports controlled by powerful corporate forces ? On September 11 , 2021 , as high as 3000 kg hero in worth Rs . 21000 crores seized by Directorate of Revenue Intelligence at Mundra port in Gujarat run by Adani group . The government , port owners and media were silent for more than a week . The Governments that care for the welfare of the people should make infrastructure facilities accessible to all . Contrary to this , the present government is announcing various policies , constructing Green Field infrastructure , 8 handing over brown field infrastructure for lease , attracting corporate forces , offering them concessions and incentives only for the benefit of Monopoly Capital . With the present scheme of ‘ Asset-Monetization ’ the majority oppressed people will be deprived of the access to basic infra structure facilities which are very much essential for survival . Because , the government builds Greenfield infrastructure with a view to transfer them to Monopoly Capital by converting them into high revenue yielding brown field infrastructure , this Framework will not create the basic infrastructure facilities needed by the majority and consequently they will be thrown out of accessibility .
Since 2014 , the government has aggressively aggravated the

The government ‘ Railway Regulation ’ organisation , which is supposed to look after all this , and resolve the contradictions arising between the companies profits and security and safety of public are shamelessly supporting the private companies . Union leader Babcow says this is the outcome of privatization .
In 2002 , seven people were killed in a train crash at Potters ’ Bar . Two school girls were killed in a train accident in Essex in 2005 . The court imposed a fine of three million pounds in the first case . In the second , court imposed a fine of one million pounds . Both of these accidents were caused by poor maintenance of points . This means that despite the imposition of millions of pounds as fines , it is clear that the negligence of private companies will continue . It is a wellknown fact that though the fine is levied on companies they finally grab it from the people only .
Judge Swift , who heard the 2007 accident case , stated that it is not the negligence of an individual but a “ serious systemic error ” and the company was fined 4 million pounds for not improving the system that caused the accident in 2002 and not implementing the recommendations programme of transferring the entire wealth of our nation to corporate forces and Monopoly Capital in a systematic and organized manner by passing new laws , by amending existing laws and by inventing new methods to make this process legal . The present ongoing farmers ’ struggle is against this transfer of cultivable land to corporate forces . This movement is strong and stable . Similar struggle can be seen against the privatization of Visakha Steel Plant in Andhra Pradesh . The exploited class should be strongly united and consolidated to extend sustained support to the ongoing movements . This is the only way to end the exploitation and to build the structures which ensure decency and equality in the lives of all the people . �
even after accidents in 2005 or 2007 . It is needless to say , if the privatization effects are so erroneous in developed countries , its unimaginable to assess the situation in countries like ours that are deeply submerged in corruption , which can be catastrophic .
Railways is public property , a network that is established to cater to the travel needs of crores of people . Our rulers who work for the profits of imperialists do not have the right to privatize it . The railway workers , who waged many great struggles and stood as role models for the Indian working class , must confront , struggle and stop the menace of privatization .
In this context , lets remind the words of Engels from the book “ Condition of the working class in England ” “… as human beings , shall not be made to bow to social circumstances , but social conditions ought to yield to them as human beings ; because silence on their part would be a recognition of these social conditions , an admission of the right of the bourgeoisie to exploit the workers in good times and let them to starve in bad times . Against this the working – men must rebel so long as they have not lost all human feeling .…” ( pg 153 chapter : labour movements ) �
