The Red Brigade Uprising














Affirms Intensive Class Struggle and Mass Movement Ahead 

Wave after wave of crimson troops flooded the heart of Kolkata. For all those who were intimidated, attacked, forged, raped, evicted and vandalized under the autocratic ruling of the Trinamool Congress led coalition government, it was the day for reclaiming their lost independence. The reign of terror across Bengal districts for last nine months of the new government received a big bash by the red brigade today. Every living being that still crawls, creeps even after the rule of terror converged into the Brigade Parade ground.

This Brigade rally was important for being the first one after the historic 34 years of the Left Front government discontinued. 13th May 2011 is already in the hallmark as this day not only marks the end of a lengthy pro-people government, it started the decline of democratic rights of common people in West Bengal. The last nine months were all haunted with political murders, infant’s death, farmers’ suicide, unleashing attack on students and college campuses etc.  Every red-clad youth of this state avowed their protest against the TMC-led state government today.

Massive rallies of farmers, agricultural labourers and working people emerging from all across the state attended the Brigade with full confidence to recapture the lost democratic rights and to set forth a new political journey. The 23rd state conference of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) concluded on 18th February with the call for intensive class struggle and mass movements in the state. Strengthening mass base among poorer class of people with class ideology; removing all predicaments and organizational inertness were the prime call of the 23rd conference. The scheduled proceeding of the open session started from sharp 1 P.M. when the newly elected state secretary Biman Basu commenced his presidential address.

The massive rally of more than one million people today voiced its protest against all imperialist strategies and autocracies of the state and central governments and showed its accord with all the popular uprisings from Greece to Wall Street and Egypt to Tunisia.
