Post-Election Scenario — Our Tasks!
• Under the leadership of Modi, the formation of NDA coalition government will continue the main danger of Brahmanical RSS-BJP for the people and country.
• Let us militantly resist Brahmanic Hindutva Fascism and the anti-people policies of the fascist Modi’s alliance government by building various forums of United Front at all levels!
• Let us fight back the war of elimination ‘Operation Kagaar’ unleashed by the murderous government by preparing the Party, PLGA and the people for class struggle-guerrilla war!
Comrades,
The CC of the CPI (Maoist) firstly conveys revolutionary greetings to the people of the areas of revolutionary movement for boycotting the elections to the Lok Sabha on the call of the Party.
The BJP made a conspiratorial plan in the leadership of Modi-Amit Shah-Mohan Bhagavat to gain majority in the elections and to transform the country into a Hindu theocratic state and thus facilitate the way for the exploitation of the imperialists, comprador bureaucratic bourgeoisie and big landlords without stop. The Constitution needs to be changed basically so as to establish a Hindu theocratic state that divides the people on the basis of religion. For this purpose, it needs to gain three fourths i.e., 403 of the total 543 seats. Thus came forth its slogan ‘Ab Ki baar-400 par’. In a Hindu state, the discrimination towards religious minorities in education, employment, legislative bodies, judiciary and other such spheres would become constitutional. A majoritarian state, or an apartheid state, will be formed where Muslims and Christians will not have equal rights and Hindus alone will have powers on all the spheres. BJP entered the arena well-prepared to win the election with this evil plan. Majority of the opposition parties formed into an alliance in the name of INDIA and entered the arena.
Let us evaluate the situation after the elections and formulate the necessary tasks for the revolutionary movement. In our country which the ruling exploitative classes boast to be ‘the biggest democracy’ of the world, elections were held as a farce to the 18th Lok Sabha and the Assemblies in Andhra Pradesh, Sikkim, Odisha and Arunachal Pradesh from April 19th to June 1st. Let us see how the elections took place. The Election commission permitted to spend Rs. 25,000 per candidate for the election in 1952 that rose to 95 lakhs by now. This is 380 times more. However the limit applies only for the candidate but not the party he belongs to. EC assessed the expenditure of all the parties in this election at Rs. 1,42,000 crores. It amounts to Rs.1400 per vote. Every ruling party gave ticket to the rich alone. According to the Association for Democracy Reforms (ADR), 8360 candidates participated in the election out of whom 1644 have a criminal history. 251 of the newly elected have a criminal history. Five percent of the candidates have assets above one hundred crores. 541 are very rich. These elections once again clearly showed how costly ‘democracy’ is in our country and that ordinary people cannot stand or win in the election and why genuine democracy lacks. If we see the trend of the elections – selling and buying of votes became an affair of public market. Misappropriation was in the rule. The EC seized Rs. 11,000 crores in this election. This is three times more than the amount of Rs. 3,477 crores seen in 2019. Inspite of the hype for voting made by the EC, the ruling parties, the NGOs and the media, polling was at a mere 65.79 percent in 2024 when compared to 67.4 percent in 2019. The percentage of polling gradually decreased phase by phase.
Above 35 crore people did not vote. In the semi-colonial, semi-feudal country where parliamentary democracy has no meaning, people in the many areas of the country who are unable to understand the alternative to solve their problems are choosing boycott of election as a weapon. The number of voters is above 97 crores in the general election. Votes polled were 64.2 crores including invalid and NOTA ones. Out of this polling BJP got 36.6 percentage of votes (23 crores), whereas its alliance got 7 percent votes (4.5 crore). The vote share of NDA-BJP was a mere 43.6 percent (27.5 crore votes). According to the ECI declared data the total polled votes were 64.2 crores, but the alliance under the leadership of BJP got only 27.5 crore votes. This reveals that this is the minority vote and failed to get the confidence of majority people and is unfit to form the government. But this alliance through the majority of seats in the parliament came in to power, showing how fake this democracy is! Apart from how many seats and votes BJP got, the real danger of the people – RSS-BJP – could not be defeated without resisting it in all fronts by the people to save the country and themselves.
As mentioned earlier, the objective of BJP in this election is to trample all the civil and democratic rights of the people of the states, nationalities and the indigenous tribes in the name of ‘new India’ and ‘developed India’; to formulate brutal civil and criminal codes worse than during the colonial rule, to formulate Acts that change the fundamental essence of the Indian Constitution and wipe out the nominally democratic, federal system in the country; to get hold of, by hook or crook, the legislative bodies, the police, para-military and other departments, education, health and other sectors, the manifestos of religious and cultural organizations and all voluntary organizations and those of Non-Resident Indians; and to fill them with Hindutva forces; thus structuralize Brahmanic Hindutva corporate-military rule. BJP felt it can do all these if it comes to power the third time. Most of the imperialist countries, the domestic and foreign corporate companies and feudal forces of the country supported it to serve their interests. These classes have been encouraging Brahmanic Hindutva Fascism for the past few years in their economic and political interests.
The RSS, Vishwa Hindu Parishat and BJP brought into force all its machinery in the country and all over the world into propaganda to support its majoritarianism and majoritarian rule in the past ten years. The entire government machinery was in support of it. The propaganda was such that Modi alone was competing in each constituency, in the name of Modi guarantee. In the midst of this propaganda the BJP left its own party election manifesto and took up hate and false propaganda against the manifesto of the opposition INDIA out of fear of defeat. The EC responsible for free and fair elections without hate propaganda acted against it. The Modi government appointed new commissioners with the history of being pro-BJP to EC just two days before announcing the election schedule. The Supreme Court was silent towards this move while it was a violation of its judgment. The EC rejected to take action on the hate speech of Modi. It played a pro-BJP and anti-opposition role all throughout the process of elections. It took a dual policy. The Modi clique utilized it as an instrument with a prior plan.
INDIA alliance declared saving Indian Constitution and protecting democracy as their objectives. But they were not organized. There were several contradictions and disunity in the alliance. People did not have strong belief in it. All of this helped the Modi clique. In spite of any number of conspiracies of the Modi clique and any amount of efforts of INDIA, no party gained majority. The divisive politics of the BJP and the anti-incumbency feeling like in Andhra Pradesh gave relatively more votes for the NDA alliance. Even though, BJP gained 240 seats and NDA gained 293. INDIA gained 234 and others 16. Therefore, BJP stepped down and had to form the government together with its NDA allies on simple majority. This is an indication of the utter discontent among the people towards the exploitative policies of the ruling classes, the corruption and misappropriation of the leaders as well as the contradictions among the population and the contradictions among the ruling classes.
The anti-people policies implemented by the earlier governments in Andhra Pradesh and Odisha and at the same time the machinations of RSS-BJP, use of money power and misuse of state machinery led RSS-BJP to come into power independently in Odisha and in an alliance in Andhra Pradesh. In Arunachal Pradesh, BJP was able to retain its power with its machination tactics, money power and misuse of state machinery. In Sikkim, due to anti-incumbency, Sikkim Democratic Front lost the election and Sikkim Krantikari Morcha won the election. Due to the anti-people policies of every bourgeois political party, no party is having guarantees to come back to power again after five years.
The people are [yet] unable to understand the real alternative and they are finding no option other than to choose any one of the exploitative ruling parties. When the people consolidate with the practice of the revolutionary party and immerse in the call given by it, [only] then the people will find [the] real alternative.
The anti-people policies of BJP led to its failure to achieve its target
Majority people opposed the Hindu majoritarian ideology, the bureaucratic attitude basing itself on brute majority and its Brahmanic Hindutva Fascist rule. People protested the massacres and the bureaucratic rule in Manipur and Kashmir. Although the Modi clique instigated religious sentiments through the building of Ram mandir, it didn’t work on the workers, peasants, middle classes, small and medium traders and producers who had several problems and that of unemployment on the whole. CAA brought forth few days before the elections also did not achieve the expected results. Most of the Dalit people suffering from untouchability, mob lynching, human scavenging and other such problems voted against Modi in this election. We also see that the government employees did not vote BJP this time. The repressive policies of the government towards women who faced patriarchal suppression, atrocities and murders out of prestige and towards the tribal people who fought for jal-jangal-zameen against corporatisation and militarization can be said to be strong reasons that led to the failure of BJP to achieve its target. Several YouTubers exposed and questioned the policies of the Modi government which had more effect on voters.
BJP could not achieve its sinister objective of crossing 400 seats due to the opposition of the people to the Modi's rule and the consequence of their anti-government vote. It utterly failed to gain even simple majority [on its own]. Especially the people of Tamilnadu, Punjab, Kerala and West Bengal rejected Hindutva politics. People of Mone, Toonsang, Lengleng, Kifir, Nomatur and Sheklak of Nagaland boycotted elections on the call of the Eastern Nagaland People’s Organization in protest to the negligence of the Modi government towards the demand for separate state of Nagaland. People of the areas of strong revolutionary movement boycotted elections on the call of the Party in the direction of establishing alternate genuine New Democratic politics and organs of political power. People of areas of nationality liberation movement and anti-displacement struggles mostly boycotted elections in protest to the anti-people and repressive policies of the central and the state governments. People of few villages in UP, Bihar and Tamilnadu boycotted elections in protest to lack of minimum facilities. All the candidates who were in the election battle field are exploitive thieves and the people did not find alternative, so many voters pressed the NOTA (None Of The Above) button.
Hiding these facts the NDA is trying to deceive the people with its Goebbels propaganda that there was an all-round development in Modi’s rule, that this is the reason the people elected a strong government, that this is a historic people’s judgment, that they would continue to work for the all-round development of the people, that Modi has a clear vision towards developed India and that he has a big role in gaining respect for India and in the elimination of poverty. In fact the election results show that people judged against Modi and BJP, which is a big political and moral blow to Modi.
The Modi clique, over-dependent on Modi with over-confidence, it looked down [on] the activists of RSS with arrogancy, Nadda stated that there is no need of RSS for the BJP's election campaign now, few seniors who were thought to be coming in Modi's way and few juniors in the name of lack proper experience [were] kept aside in the BJP. Those who jumped from other parties were given much priority and those of the other parties opposed for a long time by the BJP were accepted into BJP and given tickets. All these [issues] led to discontent among the opposition cliques in RSS and BJP. The number of votes for BJP were lesser in 135 seats when compared to the earlier election. It even failed to win the seat in Ayodhya. RSS Sir Sangh Chaalak Mohan Bhagavat himself openly commented on over-confidence and ego of BJP. Modi aggressively implemented the agenda of RSS. He had its support and that of Adani and Ambani. This gradually increased ego and over-confidence in the Modi clique and it came to be bureaucratic. The evil force of Modi clique and its bureaucracy rose and strengthened out of the hegemony of the RSS in any part of the country, the countless massacres and atrocities it unleashed, the bureaucratic rule and rise in Hindu communal hate ideology, politics and culture.
The nature and policies of NDA alliance – Our stand
Since no party, including BJP, gained majority, it became the largest party but had to form a coalition government with its NDA allies. However the NDA government and the RSS-BJP are yet the main danger to the country. Imperialists welcomed the election of Modi as the Prime Minister in the NDA government. There will not be any major change in its policies in the interests of the imperialists, comprador bureaucratic bourgeoisie and feudal landlords and in the brutal attacks on the people of the oppressed classes, sections and nationalities and on their revolutionary, democratic voices.
There was large speculation about big majority for BJP that created a false boom in Delhi and Mumbai stock exchanges. Thirty lakh crores of rupees of ordinary investors were looted. Even before the government was formed there was the NEET paper leak, the scam of grace marks, the toll tax was very high, there were terrorist accusations against democratic voices such as [the] writer Arundhati Roy, whereas Medha Patkar was awarded prison sentence for five months.
The unceasing fire in Manipur and the killing of youth aspiring freedom in the name of »terrorists« in Jammu and Kashmir shall rise in the rule of the coalition government. The past six months have been witnessing the murders of revolutionaries and revolutionary people in scores of numbers in each operation in Operation »Kagaar« by the Indian Army and Airforce in the veil of para-military, the [actual] para-military, special and commando forces of the states in the areas of revolutionary movement.
The invitation to Modi to attend G7 meet in Italy with the confidence that he would win shows that they need Modi and that Modi’s rule is in their interests. In the name of 'Indianising' the Indian Penal Code, Criminal Procedure Code and the Evidence Act that have been being implemented since the British rule, [were] changed as Bharathiya Nyaya Samhita, Bharathiya Nagarik Suraksha Samhita and Bharathiya Sakshya Adhiniyam which are more draconian than during the time of the colonialists. In the name of speedy justice this will lead to give indiscriminate punishments on the big scale, the state becoming police state. Allies [of BJP] did not express even minimum objection which shows how brutal and bureaucratic the coalition government is going to be.
In order to overcome the world economic crisis, the imperialists need resources, cheap labor power and a broad market in the backward countries. They need evil rulers like Modi in those countries. They need them to adopt policies in the interests of the imperialists, comprador bureaucratic bourgeoisie and feudal landlords and implement those aggressively in fascist methods. It is beyond doubt that NDA rule will definitely carry them through. All the parliamentary opposition parties including Congress shall nominally oppose these and try to deceive the people to the best of their strength. They show superficial protest to the massacres of the tribal people, especially in Dandakaranya fighting for jal-jangal-zameen-ijjat-adhikar. This is the nature of the comprador ruling class parties that act differently while in power. Therefore, we need to bring the people out of the illusions on these parties. We need to understand that any bourgeois party is [essentially] the same and works in the interests of the imperialists.
Intensifying contradictions among the ruling cliques
Like it did in the past ten years, the BJP under the leadership of Modi is going to conspire to eat away not only the opposition parties but also the NDA allies. There are such experiences in the past. Internal strife came to [the] fore at the time of oath taking ceremony. Key Minister posts were taken by BJP and unimportant ones were given to the allies. It was a fact that Modi led the 70 ministers from his office in the past ten years like a dictator. Now whoever might be the Minister of whatever department and from whichever party, Modi, his clique and the advisers and bureaucrats will lead. There will be no democracy at least for even namesake. In this background, contradictions shall increase among the ruling classes. Internal strife shall intensify among the NDA allies. Nitish and Chandrababu Naidu are representatives of the comprador bureaucratic bourgeoisie and feudal classes. They are loyal servants of the imperialists. But they do not have a religious agenda like the BJP. However, since NDA is an opportunistic alliance, they would definitely look for an alternative if anything goes against their interests. So, due to the big brother attitude and hegemony of BJP, contradictions shall gradually intensify not only in the central government but also in the NDA allies and the parties. This will lead to political crisis. As a result of all these, all the major contradictions in the country shall intensify.
In the background of imperialist crisis, Brahmanic Hindutva Fascism is strengthening. The crisis is exposing the destructive nature of imperialism. People’s struggles are arising against imperialist exploitation and oppression all over the world. The ruling classes of the country clearly understood from the elections that any anti-people policies to exploit the country would be facing strong resistance from the people. Even though the ruling classes of the country are the main enemies of the people, the majority Hindus are being instigated against the minority Muslims, Christians, North East nationalities, the Dalit and tribal people like enemies. There are attacks on minorities. In the background of the election to the Lok Sabha we cannot imagine that such attacks will stop during the rule of NDA. The ruling classes unleash intense repression on one hand and on the other, try to divert the struggles of the oppressed people against exploitation and oppression and for their rights from going towards revolutionary violence. The conditions demand that these forces must fight more and unitedly.
The BJP that won for the third time will work in the direction of establishing Hindu state by 2047. It shall make preparations to come to power in the election in 2029 and also in the states from now itself. The imperialist globalization policies and Brahmanic Hindutva Fascist policies of the government are against the interests of the exploited people, sections and nationalities and the country.
So, the struggles of the broad people against these policies shall widen and intensify. BJP wants an opposition-free country and so the opposition parties will have to face the attempts to break their unity. It will affect the nominal federal nature of the country. So the opposition parties and the state governments will need to fight against this. Organizations, unions, parties, intellectuals and pro-people's media that criticize, question and fight BJP will be targeted more. In order to establish Brahmanic Hindutva state it will intensify elimination of [the] revolutionary movement as well as the North Eastern and Kashmiri nationality [liberation] struggles and suppression of democratic movements. The broad masses and the democratic, revolutionary forces need to fight against this constitutional autocracy. Minorities, secular and democratic forces need to fight against the majoritarian state. Basing on this political situation, we must adopt tactics to isolate the Brahmanic Hindutva Fascism which is the main enemy, overcome the temporary setback in the revolutionary movement and advance it.
Our Party and Mass Organisations must always expose the class nature of Modi government constituted of Brahmanic Hindutva ideology. In the semi-colonial, semi-feudal India, workers, peasants, petty and middle bourgeoisie, the oppressed classes, sections and nationalities can solve their problems and ultimately achieve victory only through struggle with firm determination in the leadership of the proletariat. The proletarian party can advance its objective only through planned and regular practice. It needs time, planning and patient efforts among the people. That is the reason the great Marxist teachers spoke about active party leadership for class line, mass line, people’s army, PPW and united front through collective knowledge of the people.
It is a big challenge for the revolutionary, democratic forces and the oppressed people of the country to fight Brahmanic Hindutva Fascism that is rising with the objective of establishing ‘Hindu fascist state’. At the same time it is a great opportunity to build a united, strong struggle. Therefore, there is a strong need to enlighten the masses of the country and build class struggles and broad people’s movements in ideological, theoretical, economic, political, social, cultural and all spheres in order to militantly resist the policies unleashed by Brahmanic Hindutva fascism and [the] fascist Modi government in favor of imperialists and comprador ruling classes and against the country and the broad masses. The various people’s struggles must be developed into organized, broad, militant political struggles. These must be interlinked with armed struggle in a proper manner. For this purpose we must develop our efficiency in a big way and take up collective practice utilizing the organized force of the Party, PLGA and organs of the people.
RSS considers communists as its dead-enemies since the beginning. Therefore, it has been constantly intensifying fascist elimination offensives on the revolutionaries and the people in the guidance of the LIC strategy and tactics formulated by the US imperialists. As a part of this, it is deploying lakhs of government forces in the areas of revolutionary movement all over the country and is implementing corporatization-militarization. It has already been unleashing war of elimination in the name of reactionary Surajkund [Scheme], Operation »Kagaar«, »Clean« on the just revolutionary movement, the Maoist party, [its] PLGA, organs of revolutionary people’s power and Mass Organizations in the leadership of unified commands together with the state governments. It is holding armed military operations through the Indian Army, the several para-military (CRPF, BSF, ITBP, SSB, CISF, NSG) forces, the murderous armed and commando (Greyhounds, Hawk, SOG, STF, Thunderbolt, Jaguar, C-60), DRG, DVF, Bastar Fighters, Danteswari fighters and other such) forces of the states with 81 mm rockets and various kinds of artillery, shells, drone bombs, Airforce helicopters and other such modern weapons and even light tanks. It is unleashing mass pogroms and creating terror among the people. It is holding large scale psychological operations through the reactionary, monopoly propaganda and mass communication media. It alleges that terrorists and Maoists infiltrated into the movement wherever one comes forth in the country and brands the demands criminal. It is conducting large-scale psychological operations through the reactionary, monopoly propaganda and mass communication media. It alleges that »terrorists« and Maoists infiltrated into the movement wherever one comes forth in the country and brands the demands criminal.
Generally sometimes we might not enough perform in fighting back each and every operation and campaign of the enemy in high and intense levels and there might be mistakes and confusion in the beginning which leads to more losses and difficulties. We are facing more losses in resisting Operation »Kagaar«, »Clean« due to low preparation for war, low preparedness and confusions. Hence, we are making valuable sacrifices. Subjective effort is important to see that the enemy’s objective is not fulfilled in the ongoing war of elimination. As a part of it we must make active self-defense war-guerrilla war and continue war for a long time. We must creatively apply the strategy-tactics of PPW with the fundamental rules of guerrilla war – we retreat when the enemy advances; we harass him when he rests; we attack him when tired; we chase him [when] in retreat; secrecy, speed, change of place – and other such things and develop guerrilla war basing on the developing mass base. We must get accustomed to the intense level of war and withstand courageously. We must totally utilize the weaknesses of the enemy, gradually lessen our losses and thus develop the rate of our daily victories. Our propaganda teams, mass work units/teams/organizers, guerrilla units must work in broad areas. These must implement the political line, program and the policies of the party. It means these have to fight for the multipronged interests of the entire oppressed people. There will be favorable and unfavorable aspects in PPW. We must utilize the favorable aspects, overcome the unfavorable aspects and create the opportunities to go forth.
As the movement develops, as the class consciousness of the people rises, as the economic and political crises intensify, as the social conditions change, we must politically mobilize and organize the people in the struggles of resistance that arise from the enemy’s encirclement-elimination war in many more varied self-defense-offense methods, in class struggles, political struggles and people’s resistance struggles. This gives birth to continuous new forms of struggle and organization in training the new forces politically and theoretically. There must be changes in functioning, work style, mass work, military work, guerrilla war and discipline as per these new conditions. Changes will definitely come if we make conscious effort. In the process of the movement, we must realize new forms of struggle and organization that arise from the people and the struggling forces, sharpen and generalize them, give a clear expression and hand them over to the people. It is the main task of the party leadership to see that they utilize these consciously and achieve better results. The people’s struggle and People’s War going on in the present new conditions of Operation »Kagaar« demand that all levels of leadership must pay attention from the top to the bottom.
Let us intensify-widen class struggles with the following program across the country in view of the above post-election conditions—
• Let us militantly resist the pro-imperialist, pro-comprador bureaucratic bourgeois, pro-big feudal class policies of the fascist Modi government. Let us mobilize the oppressed masses of large forest, plain and urban areas into broad struggles for daily, basic problems, on [the] environmental problem, against the draconian anti-people Acts and against corporatization-militarization. Let us intensify-widen class struggle.
• Let us constantly enlighten the people about the danger of Brahmanic Hindutva Fascist RSS-BJP in the leadership of Modi to the country and the people. Let us build and make actively work the various forms of anti-Brahmanic Hindutva fascist United Front at various places with concrete program on a broad basis so as to mobilize the broad masses against the outdated diehard Hindutva ideology and isolate the fascist forces.
• Let us build militant movements against the instigation on Dalit people, women, religious minorities [and] tribal people by the majoritarian Hindutva religious and casteist hatred, the obscene accusations, attacks and mob lynching in the name of cow slaughter, love jihad, trolling, CAA and new criminal laws. We must have the initiative to organize the rising resistance to Brahmanic Hindutva Fascism among the religious minorities, especially the Muslim people.
• We must politically prepare the Party, PLGA, organs of revolutionary people and the people in our areas of work and make efforts to fight back the war of elimination – Operation »Kagaar« – on the people. We must enlighten them about the intensity of [the] enemy’s fascist attack, its cruel nature and the need to make enormous sacrifices in the process of fighting it back. We must protect the organs of the Party, PLGA, and people, including the leadership.
• We must build broad United Front with all the forces against the massacres and state violence on the people and the revolutionary movement and build people’s resistance struggles. We must make continuous efforts to develop mass base and subjective forces and take up guerrilla war with initiative and actively to the best of our strength basing [ourselves] on it.
• Apart from the daily problems we must organize the peasantry on main demands – land to the tiller; all power to the Revolutionary Peasant Committees/Agricultural Labor Organizations, Revolutionary People’s Committees; nationalize the agricultural farms and plantations of the imperialist Multi-National Companies, capitalist landlords, comprador bureaucratic capitalists and government; fight for jal-jungal-zameen-ijjat-adhikar, mobilize the peasantry not only of the areas of the movement but the entire country on a broad basis and build a strong peasant movement. We must intensify agrarian revolutionary struggle. We must mobilize the entire democratic, pro-people forces in support of the farmers’ agitations. We must build and intensify united struggles.
• We must organize the workers against the brutal Acts being indiscriminately used against the working class, against the violation of their rights, for improvement of work conditions, for hikes in real wages and other such life and death problems and build a strong and militant working-class movement.
• We must take up the program to mobilize the unemployed youth against the problem of unemployment that is becoming a big giant daily.
• We must organize students-youth and teachers against the corporatization-saffronisation of education.
• We must organize women’s movements on a broad basis against the patriarchal exploitation and suppression on women, against sexual atrocities, all kinds of violence, love jihad murders for prestige and distorted feudal-imperialist vicious culture. We must build a strong woman’s movement all over the country.
• We must build a strong countrywide movement against the rising Brahmanic Hindutva Fascist forces on the Dalit people and against the caste exploitation and attacks of the oppressor castes. We must mobilize advanced forces of the entire castes in these struggles.
• We must organize tribal, peasant and urban poor people on the problem of displacement and build militant countrywide struggles against the domestic, foreign corporate companies and the central and state governments.
• We must unite with the people of various nationalities and indigenous people fighting with demands for right to self-determination including right to secession in Kashmir and North Eastern states and with the demands for special states and autonomy. We must build solidarity movements, work together with them. We must lend leadership to the nationality liberation movements.
• We must take the initiative to utilize the contradictions among the ruling clique/parties in the coalition government without absolute majority for any party and those between the ruling and opposition parties. In view of our experiences in the activities of United Front, we must adopt tactics so as to attract the oppressed people behind the ruling parties towards us. We must remember the theoretical, political and organizational level of the entire party in doing this. We must work with Maoist style, stand on our own legs and enhance our organized strength.
• The Modi government is waging a war on the people of the country in the name of ultimate war on the Maoists through Operation »Kagaar«/»Clean«. In this condition of war, we must learn to continue mass work and military work without losing initiative. We must be accustomed to new conditions and gain command on those.
Comrades,
We gained valuable experiences in the past five and a half decades, especially in the past four decades in various times in the leadership of the party all over the country and in the areas of the movement in anti-feudal, anti-imperialist class struggles with agrarian revolution as the main axis, developing guerrilla war. We have been fighting back and resisting the unceasing offensive plans and campaigns of the Indian exploitative ruling classes on the party and the revolutionary movement. We must now develop the tactics according to these experiences applying [them] to the present condition. We must properly utilize politically the situation developing favorably for revolution at the international plane and domestically. We must build United Fronts against the exploitation of domestic and foreign corporate companies and against feudal exploitation and oppression in the urban, plain and forest areas of our work, strengthen and gradually expand them. We must develop broad people’s struggles and class struggles in its leadership. We must properly utilize militarily the geographical favorable aspects and the weaknesses of the enemy in guerrilla areas. We must take up active war of self-defense. Therefore we must constantly explore our strengths to the core and develop mass base, subjective forces and sources for war. The leadership at all levels from the top to the bottom must specially concentrate on this.
We can advance by overcoming the present utmost critical situation in the countrywide revolutionary movement only by implementing the above-mentioned program. Revolutionary, progressive, democratic and secular forces shall gradually develop. They shall ultimately bring down exploiters, counter-revolutionaries and reactionaries. This is the rule of social development. In order to make true this rule, let us mobilize the broad masses against the main danger of the country and the people from the NDA government in the leadership of Brahmanic Hindutva Fascist Modi and make daring efforts to fail the counter revolutionary »Kagaar« on the revolutionary movement, on the oppressed people, democratic, progressive and secular forces of the country. Let us build people’s movements all over the country at various places against the anti-people policies of fascist Modi and develop those into broad movements with coordination. Let us step forward towards rooting out Brahmanic Hindutva Fascism, all kinds of reactionary, fascist counter-revolutionary forces, imperialists and comprador ruling classes in the path of Protracted People’s War with the objective to establish a genuine democratic federal republic and ultimately accomplish Socialism-Communism.
The people shall gain the ultimate victory.
