Kanhaiya Kumar, All India Youth Federation (AIYF) leader, has called for protecting the Hindu dharma from the Sangh Parivar forces.
He was addressing a function held here on Wednesday to accord reception for the ‘Long March’ taken out by AIYF-AISF from Kanyakumari to Hussainiwala in Punjab. ‘Save India, Change India ‘is the slogan of the 60-day march.
“The RSS and the Sangh Parivar are raising the communal issues to divert attention from the main issues faced by the country. Hindu dharma does not seek to attack Muslims or kill human beings in the name of cows. The RSS and the Sangh Parivar forces are causing maximum damage to the Hindu dharma,” he said.
The BJP had fielded a Dalit candidate Ramnath Kovind for the post of President to resist the protests over death of Rohit Vemula, missing of Najeeb and attacks on Dalits and minorities. It’s political gimmick of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The BJP is leading a campaign that whoever voted against Mr. Kovind is anti-Dalit, he pointed out.
Mr. Kanhaiya Kumar alleged that the Prime Minister had been trying to finish the democratic system in the country. He aimed at the collapse of country’s economy through implementation of the GST. He promised two crore jobs for youths. Where are the jobs, he asked. He called upon the youths to fight against fascist forces.
When recovery managers are deployed to recover loan arrears of the common man, the banks are writing off the loans of big business people, CPI State secretary Kanam Rajendran noted.
He alleged that the Modi government was on a selling spree of public firms. The new job rules protects interests of employers not workers. He said.
The Long March called upon all students organisations to unite together to fight against fascist rule under Narendra Modi government.
