Press statement
Condemn Killings in West Bengal
The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued
the following statement:
The Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) strongly condemns the killing of four
CPI(M) activists in Narayanpur under the Canning Police Station of South
24 Parganas district of West Bengal.
In a dastardly incident anti-social and criminal elements of the
Trinamul Congress launched a murderous assault on a peaceful and unarmed
group of CPI(M) supporters who were returning after filing nomination
papers for the elections to the managing committee of a local madrasa.
CPI(M) activists Dinesh Haldar, Khairul Jamadar, Biswanath Gayen and
Salim Jamadar were killed on the spot. The gruesome nature of the
killings is revealed by the fact that two of them were killed after
being fired with the revolver placed inside their mouths. Seven other
CPI(M) activists were grievously injured in the attack and are in
critical condition and are fighting for their lives.
This incident shows the extent of violence that is being unleashed
against the CPI(M) and the Left in West Bengal while the Trinamul
Congress and its leader Mamata Banerjee campaigns that there is no law
and order in the state of West Bengal. The CPI(M) along with other Left
parties had earlier presented a memorandum to the Prime Minister listing
out the more than 150 CPI(M) leaders and activists who had been killed
by the opposition since the Lok Sabha election results. Hardly a day
passes in Junglemahal area especially in West Midnapur district when
CPI(M) activists are not killed by Maoist marauders. In the rest of the
state it is the Trinamul which carries on the campaign of violence.
Yesterday's incident is a major development in this continued spree of
violence. The Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) calls upon all peace loving
people in West Bengal and elsewhere in the country to join in
condemnation of these murders. The PB calls upon all its Party units to
redouble their efforts in expressing solidarity with the struggle for
defence of peace and democracy that the CPI(M) and the Left is
conducting in such trying circumstances in West Bengal.
