When the bulldozers came for Jadavpur's hawkers, CPI(M) stood in their way.
They were forced to retreat.✊
The intervening night of June 2-3 witnessed a determined struggle led by the CPI(M) to defend the livelihoods of the hawkers of Jadavpur Station. Acting on eviction notices issued by the railway authorities, bulldozers arrived to carry out the demolition and eviction drive.
At this critical moment, CPI(M) State Committee members Srijan Bhattacharya and Sudip Snegupta took the lead, standing firmly alongside the hawkers and their families. Joined by local residents and advocate Shamim Ahamad, they physically blocked the bulldozers and resisted the eviction attempt.
The resolute intervention of the CPI(M) forced the authorities to back down. The bulldozers ultimately had to retreat.

We condemn the arrest of #CPIM activists Chithra Bhanu and Suhas Adiga in Bengaluru. They were campaigning for a massive protest planned by the @cpimkarnataka State Committee on December 21 on people's issues. They have been in the forefront of highlighting problems of IT Sector workers and mobilising against increasing work hours in the sector.
Both comrades were arrested last night and are yet to be released. No one is being allowed to meet them as well. The Congress government in Karnataka is trying to suppress people's voices. Such authoritarian moves to stifle protests cannot deter struggles for justice. It will only strengthen the resolve to resist draconian anti-people moves.
