PERSPECTIVE PAPER

 

(DRAFT FOR APPROVAL)

 

1. INTRODUCTION

 

Swadeshi administration was possible after sacrifices made in the 125 years long movement that suffocated the British Imperialists through four pronged protests by Indian people amid slogans of Vande Mataram and Inquilah Zindabad. Pressurised by these struggles aimed against domination and exploitation, many consultancies and negotiations were done on one hand whereas, policies of 'divide and rule to split the struggle on Hindu- Muslim communal lines were continued on the other hand. However, none of this succeeded and the British Imperialists had to bow down to the strong unity of the Indian People. Conspiracy efforts made by many colonialists, lackey businessmen and landed classes did not succeed.  Imprisonments, executions gruesome murders as well as deprivation of basic necessities only added fuel to the fire among people of all faiths and last efforts for survival of imperialist exploitation did not last long. Several hundred years old co-existence and religious harmony of the people strengthened the united struggle, thwarting all divisive efforts to sow communal hatred among Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs, Jains, Christians, Buddhists etc, to prolong the rule of colonial exploitation. Indian Independence Movement embodying harmony among people of all faiths became a beacon of unity in the whole world. The people wanted an independent India having democratic, economic, cultural, social, and religious rights. From the rich to the poor and deprived masses, the Adivasis, Dalits and Bahujan's, the literate and the illiterate, a strong freedom struggle was built and India was formed.

 

Many martyrs dreamed of an India with justice, equality, fraternity, freedom and secularism, which would make the Indian people proud. An India, that was to be formed with overthrow of British Imperialism and establishment of a state with equal value of citizens, social equality and economic independence. Laws were supposed to be equal for all and not based on caste, class, religion, race, gender, language, etc.,

 

 

 

 

2. 75 years onwards independence aspirations unrealised: SHAMEFUL.

 

 Since 1947, the ruling parties have not upheld self-reliant policies and instead prioritized the interests of imperialist countries like America, Britain, France, and Russia. Socialism and secularism enshrined in the constitution, remained lip-service and exploitative policies have been implemented in favour of the capitalists and landlords. Creation of Public Sector Enterprises and Nationalisation of banks have ultimately benefited the rich by monopolising the industries under the pretext of Mixed economy, economy, welfare state, and Garibi-Hatavo. Due to this, economic disparities have increased and majority of the people have been pushed out from the walled development model Parties claiming to implement secular policies have been condoning religious hatred to divide and rule

 

3. After 1991, country plunged into further crisis, sharpened by neoliberal policies to grant unhindered access to monopolistic multinational corporations to exploit the natural resources and vast labour force of the country in the name of development and employment generation

 

4. Furthermore, with BJP coming to power in 2014, public sector enterprises like industries, banks, LIC, railways, Air India, BSNL pharma companies. Defence Industries etc. are being sold off in bankruptcy It is neglecting of basic needs of the people like education, healthcare, employment etc, and people's wealth and resources are beings plundered. In the agriculture sector too, it is granting access to Multinational Corporation to take over by encouraging thousands of crores of rupees of foreign investments in budding sectors on one hand, and neglecting small scale industries by not providing them loans and other assistance on the other hand, it is crushing the small scale business of the country. Instead, Adanis and Ambanis, backed by foreign investments, are favoured and national investment is neglected, Make in India, Digital India, De monetization are giving unhindered access to foreign investments, People are drained of their earnings through policies like GST. Gov't overnight, ill conceived, egotistic lockdown decisions that left millions of people jobless and paralysed.

 

5. Boasting about Patriotism and Constitution, it tries to remove socialism and secularism from wordings of the preamble as well. In the name of economic growth and 'Make in India', abrogated several labour laws and formulated four labour codes that helped the ease of doing business of foreign investments and their lackeys and enacted three anti agricultural  laws

 

6. While honouring Ambedkar in  appearance, it is treating the Dalits, Adivasis, and the backward people with intolerance and taking away their constitutional rights Apart from trying to remain in the ruling dispensation by dividing the people on religious lines, it is also making preparations for formations of Brahmanical Hindutva state by targeting other religions. Brahmanical forces have occupied almost all government departments and judiciary is also being rapidly infiltrated. The contractualization of armed forces will take place in the name of Agnipath Scheme; army is also being turned into private army of the Brahmanical forces and the corporates.

 

7. The people of the country do not have freedom and equality but are being subjected to an undeclared emergency. Apart from the above stated role of BJP government at centre and states, the situation of non-BJP and Congress government is also not very much different. There is opposition from the people because of their undemocratic governance. These governments and parties must democratise and start paying attention  to the demands of the people, if they ever want to defeat the RSS-BJP combine.

 

8. The aim of corruption free governance should be to introduce proper welfare schemes for the people. 90 per cent expenditure for education and healthcare and infrastructure should be undertaken by the government. Security of livelihood should be ensued by government employment. There should be determination to develop the most backward areas of the country, according to the needs of the people and not the corporates. The aspirations of struggle born new states like Telangana, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh and Uttarakhand and other similar States and areas should be implemented with sincerity. Interests of majority of the people are being subjugated under the interests of minority i.e, Brahmanical ruling class people, who were stooges of British Rulers and traitors of the independence movement

 

9. These traitors are distorting the idea of social justice and using it in their interest to water down the aspirations of the people of the country. They are distorting the religious beliefs and raising incoherent slogans of Ram Rajya and Hindu Rajya. The Brahmanical ideology of religious hatred is idealising the Italy's fascist Mussolini and German Nazi Hitler and putting forward deceitful theories with the aim to maintain political and economic dominance of the people. They are unleashing fascist attacks on the people and curbing basic democratic and civil rights of the people. Every people's protest be it Kisan Andolan, workers Protests against Labour Codes, Students Protest against privatisation, Adivasis protest for implementation of PESA act, religious minonty protest against communal attacks, the Brahmanical forces are using these deceitful theories to discredit and attack the people's right to protest

 

10. We are observing, that on the basis of petty differences and contradictions between the people to sow seeds of hatred in order to divide and rule. Different other political parties are using religion, caste and region in a different way, not for the benefit of the majority of the people but for the selfish interest of the few. The identity of India's interfaith brotherhood is being destroyed.

 

11. We have seen the situation of people in Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Israel Pakistan, etc., that were states on the basis of religion. We have seen how many terrible depravities religious fanaticism has wrought in human society. In the world of ours. religion is used by the ruling groups to shield their exploitation by dividing exploited people, while they loot and plunder. We are seeing how terrible genocide is happening in countries ruled by religion. Similarly, India is also going to be turned into Syria, Iraq, Israel, Afghanistan, Myanmar etc. with religious fanaticism as the norm of the day. When religious fanaticism acquires state power, it becomes disastrous. Any religious fanaticism, therefore, is an axe to democracy and detrimental to peaceful coexistence of people from different faiths.

 

 

12. Religious fanaticism can be curbed and the people can continue to be governed with common minunum democratic values only by organising a broad united mass movement against all forms of religious fundamentalism particularly Hindutva Fanaticism in Indian Context. To build a broad mass movement against the BJP RSS CORPORATE combine, we must identify the contradictions in its particularity and see that the BJP itself as a fascist party has both, universal and unique elements. Its particular aspect is the resemblance to the dominant Brahmanical political-social order and  Universal aspect is dividing the working classes and intensifying the exploitation of the masses in more prudent form

 

13. At last celebrating Independence Day' and 'Republic Day without striving to striving for freedom and democratic ethos is not independence. Celebrating the birthdays of our great freedom Fighters like Bhagat Singh, Chandrashekhar Azad, Ashfaqullah Khan etc.  is not enough unless we aspire to fulfil the dream for which they laid down their lives. It is important to understand that when situation has been worsened by the power enjoyed rulers, as a citizen of this country, it is our duty to make it correct the wrongs. "Silence is the acceptance for the continuation of oppression by other means" and therefore, when we are faced with the same historic responsibilities as that of German people at the rise of Hitler, let us not repeat the historical mistake and protect the aspirations of our freedom fighters and our people.

 

Protect the aspirations of independence struggle!

 

Preserve secularism and religious harmony!
