India’s oldest Socialist Weekly!

The entire practice of the kisan agitation constitutes an emphatic rejection of the ‘nationalism’ propagated by the corporate-Hindutva alliance, and a recovery of the real nationalism that underlay the anti-colonial struggle and provided the foundation for free India.
The Modi Government’s game plan behind passing the three farm laws; and the farcical manner in which it has entered into negotiations with the farmers’ groups. But the farmers have seen through every trick being played by the government.
Beijing’s strong statement supporting the Palestinian cause comes at a time when the narrative in India, scripted by the pro-US, pro-Israeli lobbyists in the media, has crystallised that Palestine cause is dead and India must ‘move on’.
Press Release, demanding that the government ensure the implementation of the Constitutional guarantee of educational justice to the more than 60 lakh SC and ST students in the country.
The farm laws will lead to the corporatisation of agriculture and its control by foreign agribusiness corporations. Our very food sovereignty and thus the sovereignty of the country itself is at stake.
There is great determination and clarity of thought among the farmers camping at Delhi’s borders about how India is being sold to corporate interests.
On November 26, India witnessed the biggest organized strike in human history, against the recent neoliberal reforms pushed through by the Narendra Modi government.
The real disappointment for citizens facing an unprecedented assault on their basic democratic rights is not that the Modi regime is behaving the way it is. The disappointment is with the Supreme Court.
The Centre is asking state-owned companies to buy back their shares, and dole out dividends to help the government raise funds to meet its deficit – policies which are hurting companies in the long run.
The general strike of November 26 may not only be one of the biggest and most effective strikes to have taken place in the last several years; the farmers’ march to Delhi, planned to coincide with the strike, would take this protest into hitherto uncharted territory.
