mutual trusts , blowing up the frenzies and twisting the facts very easily and with no hesitation if such an act is believed to reap a good crop of votes are the methods developed by the BJP as an art .
The BJP govt . has solved not a single problem faced by the workers , peasants , adivasis , youth , women , Dalits and minorities , etc ., In the beginning , it promised to create two crore jobs per year and end the unemployment problem . It changed the talk within a few days and began to talk about the training youth in skills and create illusion that the jobs are waiting for the Indian youth in foreign countries . Now it is saying , ‘ after all , one need not look for a Job , but try for selfemployment ’. Thus it is pouring cold water on the expectations of crores of unemployed youth for jobs in a deliberate attempt to escape itself from the responsibility of providing the jobs to the unemployed youth .
The landless and poor peasants , poor tenants have no rights over the lands . Relentless attacks are being waged against the natural rights of adivasis on the lands , forest wealth , natural resources in the forest areas . The coastal people and artisans are fast losing their traditional rights and means of livelihood . With all the support and backing from the govts , the foreign and domestic big capitalists are indulging in a large scale land grabbing and the loot of natural resources . These actions are ruining the lives of poor people and forcing the crores of toiling masses to helplessly migrate to cities or other states for work .
The peasants are in a most pathetic state . Forced with unbearable costs of agriculture ,
6 no one to buy their produce ; deprived by minimum support price , back-breaking burdens of debts lakhs of peasents are committing suicides . It is a horrible consequence of the policies of ruling classes . In this period , lakhs of peasants in Maharashtra , MP , Gujarat , Rajastan , Punjab , AP , Odisha , Telangana had come into the streets protesting demanding the remunerative prices for their produce and the debt reliefs . They defied lathis , tear gas shells and even bullets . In MP , some have lost their lives in police firings . The demonetisation and GST , most arbitrarily imposed by the BJP govt have brought untold difficulties and economic devastation for the people .
The ties of Indian ruling classes with the imperialist powers have further tightened and expanded during this period . Particularly , the Indian ruling classes joining the US-led US- Japan-Australia alliance is a most dangerous development for India and Indian people . Establishing the domination of US imperialism over Asia , Asia-Pacific region is the strategic aim of this alliance . The Indian rulers had gone a long way during this period in satisfying the US imperialists . Tuning up and coordinating the political , military and diplomatic activities of India and US to suit the needs of this aim ; mobilising the rulers of the region in support of this aim and to see that the influence of China , which is opposed to it , does not grow in this region are part of the “ tasks ” of the Indian rulers . The special relations being developed by the Indian rulers with the Israeli rulers , who are acting as a tool of US domination in the Middle East , can be seen only in this light . The support being extended by the Indian rulers to the US imperialists in Afghanistan is also a part of it .
Thus the BJP regime which had stepped into the shoes of Congress , is taking India along a most harmful path .
The BJP and Sangh Parivar forces are trying to spread most unscientific , retrogressive and disruptive ideology , ideas , culture and fascist type of activities in the country in the name of Hindu Rajya , Hindutva , Indian culture , past glory and nationalism , etc ., They are trying to wipe out the ideologies , ideas , culture and heritages that are different to them . At the same time , we must not forget the fact here that they are using them also as a means to divert the attention of our people from the policies of selling out the interests of our country and people to the imperialists . They are also doing this to divert the anger and protest of people against ruling class policies of exploitation and oppression . We must , therefore , be clear that the struggle of our people against the policies of Hindutva and the struggle against the policies of exploitation , oppression , subservience and sell out to imperialism pursued by the Indian ruling classes and the BJP govt . are inter-connected and must be combined . A struggle or protest against the policies of Hindutva will be weak and abstract if they are not linked in this manner . We must also realise that such an abstract struggle . Whether we wish or not , many revolve within the frame set by the ruling classes to divert the people ’ s attention from the real issues .
The Congress Party which had now come down to the position of opposition at the all India level has no basic differences what so ever with the BJP on the questions like the economic policies , serving imperialism and
Class Struggle
