Press Statement
The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued
the following statement:
On The Situation in Andhra Pradesh
The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) expresses its
deep concern at the situation in Andhra Pradesh. The Congress Party and
the Central Government have thoroughly mishandled the issue of Telengana
that has resulted in the current rise of tensions and conflicts. It is
the responsibility of the Congress Party to work for the restoration of
normalcy. Though the Central Government had announced that it would
undertake a process of consultations with all political parties and
civil society, the modalities for this is not announced so far. The
Central Government must begin this process immediately in order to
restore peace and normalcy in the state.
The CPI (M) reiterates its consistent position that the linguistic basis
for the organisation of the states in the country should not be
disturbed as this would lead to innumerable demands all across the
country, given our vast diversity and plurality. Further the linguistic
re-organisation of states constitutes the bedrock of India's federal
policy that should not be disturbed. Therefore, in the background of the
reports that the Central Government is contemplating the establishment
of a second states re-organisation commission the CPI(M) thinks that
this is unnecessary.
The Polit Bureau of the CPI (M) condemns the wanton destruction of
properties and attacks on political leaders in the state. It appeals to
the people of Andhra Pradesh, all political parties and civil society to
exercise the utmost restraint and work together for restoring normalcy.
