Mizzima News (www.mizzima.com)
Guwahati, Oct. 14: Disappointed with the ongoing war in Afghanistan,
several Left democratic organizations in the North Eastern states of
India have raised a strong protest. The members of the organizations ?
Communist Party of India, Marxist (CPI-M), Socialist Unity Centre of
India (SUCI), All India Students Federation (AISF) and the Communist
Party of India (CPI) have started mobilizing the people to launch a
democratic movement against the war sponsored by America. The leaders of
the organizations are of the view that the United States is trying to
carry on its capitalism concept by instigating war in South Asia by
instigating war in Afghanistan. Ever since the war began in Afghanistan,
the members of the organizations have been holding meetings and taking
out processions in various pockets opposing the policy adopted by the
United States.
The unit of the AISF general secretary in Assam State Mr. Ratul Bora
told the Mizzima correspondent that the people of the region should
oppose the war tooth and nail as it seriously affect the entire South
Asia. Bora also expressed the fear that the US attack would help the
Muslim fundamentalists to be united as several groups have started
regrouping in the region.
Considering the gravity of the situation in the region and the presence
of Muslim fundamentalists the left democratic organizations should come
together to pacify the situations.
Other northeastern states such as Manipur, Tripura and Meghalaya have
also witnessed similar protest opposing the US attack. A spokesman of
the CPI in Tripura told the correspondent that the policy adopted by the
US further complicate the problem in the Asian countries. The US want
to expand their capitalism through the war, he said and vowed to carry
on a democratic movement.
Mr Kantimoy Deb, a senior member of the SUCI observed that the US are
wagging a war against South Asian countries on the pretext of attacking
on Afghanistan causing a matter of concern. Mr Deb claimed that taking
advantage of the war several militants groups of the northeast have
started regrouping.
A senior member of the All India Democratic Organizations said that
America is trying to destabilize the south Asian countries by
instigating war and it is the high time that all left forces should work
unitedly at this critical juncture. The situation in the northeast
India, which borders with Burma, is alarming due to stepped up
activities of the Muslim fundamentalists. They are learnt to have
received help from the foreign mercenaries.
