Agartala August 30: In 2024, if all political parties and common people do not start a militant movement against the evil forces that are the enemies of the countrymen, anti-people and protectors of the interests of the exploiters, there will be no success in obtaining the economic demands. Therefore, the current government must be ousted from the country, said Politburo Member Manik Sarkar. CITU, a left-wing labor organization, organized a rally in the capital to demand a total of 16 points, including increase in wages, work, food, reinstatement of retrenched workers, bonuses, and an end to oppression of Aggression workers. Former Chief Minister Manik Sarkar walked in this procession of the labor organization. Manik Dey was the state president of CITU.
CITU State Secretary Shankar Prasad Dutta said that they were supposed to give a deputation to Chief Minister Dr. Manik Saha today. But as the chief minister is busy with by-elections, they will give deputation later. On this day, this procession takes different routes and a street meeting was held at the end of the procession. Former Chief Minister Manik Sarkar said that democracy is in danger during the tenure of the current government. The office of the labor union cannot be opened; miscreants are organizing attacks on labor unions. Former Chief Minister Manik Sarkar also said that the state government has to play an important role in implementing the 16-point demands mentioned in the charters.
Speaking on this day, he strongly criticized the BJP-led government at the Centre. So they have been working against people’s interest since the beginning. He again said this government does not care about the working class people, thinking only about corporate bodies. The government is thinking how to turn the mountain of profit collected from them into a mountain. The workers’ demands are all reasonable.
Any demand raised by the workers which the government cannot fulfill if the initiative is taken. The state government cannot turn a blind eye to these demands. And this courage cannot contain it. So it all depends on the vision of the state government. CPIM state secretary Jitendra Chowdhury was present in the road meeting. While speaking, he said that there is no such system for the farmers during the current government. Due to which the condition of farmers is critical. Mandal and Morcha leaders are looting all the allocations scattered in various departments. REGA, Tweep Farmers’ work is going on everywhere looting of mandals and morchas. There is no one to monitor or take notice of this matter. Such a terrible situation is going on in the state of Tripura. CITU State President Manik Dey, Secretary Shankar Prasad Dutta addressed the meeting on this day. Former minister Tapan Chakraborty and other former Left MLAs were present.
