The PDP march having been held for the last 17 days the state over was concluded almost with a finish in Trivandrum. The valedictory function held at Vettimuricha Kotta, Trivandrum, was inaugurated by Ajith Sahi of Tehelka, a journalist who dares to speak out. He exhorted people to stand united irrespective of religion and caste for the common good of the country. This is the only antidote to the communal anger which Fascist forces with the help of US imperalism vent, he said.
The Tehelka editor launched www.maudany.com at the function
MY MESSAGE: My message is, and will always be, clear: I will keep people united under the banner of People's Democratic Party against all forces which divide and rule and reap profits out of dismembered human limbs. I am against all types of imperialism and communal fascism. And, occassionally, I put forth the demand for implementing reservation proportional to democracy so that people in all sectros can take advantage out of that.
I exhorted people not to use violance to achieve their aims. Democracy opens up avenues for resistance and we are left with the only alternative of using them all for realising our aims. We adhors all dastardly acts against innocent human beings and we will never resort to them in any case.
CK Abdul Azeez, chairman of policy making council of the party introduced the three topics of our agitation: implement reservation proportional to democracy, stop imperialist intervention and stop hunting minorities. He said the US-lead imperialsm has gone to the extent of desiring to open up its intelligence agencies in the county. That the US does not hand over David Coleman Headly, accused in several terror attacks including the latest one in Pune, to India is an example of how incapacitated our government became before the imperial forces.
Basurendra Babu and journalist James Kalarikkal also spoke.
Poomthura Siraj, Party state vice chairman, presided over the function. Gafoor Puthuppadi welcomed the gathering.
