Comrades, we sincerely acknowledge the support from the central trade unions, federations and the farmers associations against the policy of privatisation, disinvestment and corporatisation and pledge to carry our ongoing struggle to greater heights in the entire country and to intensify the agitational programme announced by Central trade unions and federations.
Dated 17 – 11-2021.
I support the just demands raised by my brothers and sisters.
The fighting spirit is commendable.
The government plays with people’s rights. Various means are used to supress our voice, to bring conflicts between us so we keep fighting amongst ourselves. It will continue to do so, until we all form a unity that is unbreakable. The ruling system will have to fulfil our demands. The constant struggle waged by us, and the power of unity will force them to kneel down.
We will have to identify the real enemy to put a full stop to such anti people policies which are implemented for the benefit of just few and loss of majority of the people.
