Stand With Iran Against Renewed US-Zionist Aggression! Statement of the ILPS

Stand With Iran Against Renewed US-Zionist Aggression! Statement of the ILPS The International League of Peoples’ Struggle strongly condemns the resumption of US-Zionist bombings against Iran. This is yet another blatant aggression by US imperialism and its Zionist attack dogs against an independent nation in West Asia that has stood against their rule for 47 years. In the morning of February 28, “Israeli” airstrikes hit military targets and civilian areas of Tehran, destroying infrastructure and injuring civilians. This was then followed by more airstrikes in the regions of Qom, Khorammabad, Esfahan, Tabriz, Kermanshah, Ilam, Lorestan, and Karaj. Iranian news agencies also experienced massive cyber attacks. US news reported that dozens of strikes by US aircraft were carried out from bases around West Asia and from an aircraft carrier. Iran launched a counter-attack of missiles against the Zionist entity as well as US bases in Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates, naming the operation “True Promise 4” after the previous 3 missile operations it launched against the entity since the launching of the Palestinian Al Aqsa Flood operation. Israel Katz of the Zionist Security Ministry announced that this was a joint operation between “Israel” and the US and that the operation was planned for months and the launch date was decided weeks ago. This comes as the US and Iran were engaged in diplomatic talks over Iran’s civilian nuclear program and the lifting of US economic sanctions, showing that the US used the talks as an act of deception and never intended to come to a diplomatic agreement with Iran. Just as in June 2025, the US proved again that it is an untrustworthy actor seeking only to maintain its global hegemony by whatever forms of aggression it deems necessary. The US has also been spreading false information about Iran in the public media, claiming without evidence during the US State of the Union address that Iran possessed missiles capable of hitting the continental United States and repeated many times the lie that Iran seeks to build a nuclear weapon, a fact the Iranian government has denied countless times. The similarities between this attack and the lies leading up to the 2003 US invasion of Iraq are many, with recent US military build-up in West Asia being the largest ever since 2003. This attack comes at a crucial time, as the Zionists continue to carry out their project of genocide and ecocide against the people of Palestine. Their attack on Iran was initially named “Shield of the Judea” as a means to whip up religious hysteria to instigate further hatred and warmongering within their fascist mass base, but was quickly renamed to not anger the people of the Arab monarchies, thus avoiding uprisings in the kingdoms that pledged their loyalties to the Zionist entity, betraying their people for their own slice of regional power. Meanwhile, the US seeks to build its farcical “Board of Peace” on the ruins of Gaza as an alternative to the UN system on the myth of Trump “ending wars” that he himself started, including against Iran. The move also is a response to rival development projects by China and Russia in the region that the US seeks to disrupt. Meanwhile, the forces of the Axis of Resistance in Palestine, Lebanon, Yemen, Iraq, and throughout the region have been regaining their strength and have vowed to fight back against continued US and Zionist aggression. This joint US-Zionist attack on Iran is a desperate move after months of hybrid warfare against Iran, their number one rival in the region, to attempt to remove one of the largest barriers to full imperialist and Zionist control over West Asia. The ILPS stands with the people of Iran as they resist this blatant imperialist aggression. The League calls on its members to take to the streets in the millions to denounce this US-led war and to express their solidarity with Iran through continued actions, education, propaganda, and other forms of support for the Iranian people’s just fight against imperialist intervention and in defense of their sovereignty. Signed, International League of Peoples’ Struggle

 

INDIA: FACAM Calls for an Anti-Imperialist Week from 23rd to 31st March

 A state of war exists, and the poorest of the poor are killed, maimed, and displaced in lakhs every day under this war. These wars on people are waged in service of big corporates, to feed their greed with the blood of the people. This imperialist looting destroys the land, livelihoods, culture, and the very lives of the most exploited, and oppressed masses.

Commemorating the martyrdom day of Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, and Rajguru on 23rd March, and keeping their historic resistance against imperialism in mind, we give this call. We appeal to all democratic, progressive, and justice loving individuals and organisations to observe anti-imperialist week from 23rd March to 31st March, 2026. We also appeal to all progressive, anti-imperialist forces to join the “People’s Convention Against Imperialist Loot” being organised on 31st March 2026.

STOP OPERATION KAGAAR!

NEPAL: CPN (Majority) GS Dharmendra Bastola arrested for Election Boycott Activities - Maximum solidarity for Immediatly release! maoistroad

Kathmandu, February 17, 2026: Police have arrested Dharmendra Bastola, General Secretary of the Communist Party of Nepal (Majority), on charges of involvement in a campaign boycotting the upcoming elections.

A team from the Kathmandu Valley Crime Investigation Office, Teku, detained him, Senior Superintendent of Police Santosh Khadka announced to the press today, adding that the party’s Kavre District Secretary Bishnu Prasad Timsina was also arrested.

“They will be handed over to the District Police Range, Kathmandu, to proceed with the case.” the SSP was quoted as saying to the press.

The CPN (Majority) had called a general strike (bandh) on Tuesday as party of a boycott campaign of the March 5 elections to Nepal’s House of Representatives.

Police sources said several other leading cadres of the CPN (Majority) are also under surveillance.

CPN (Majority) CC Press Statement: Release GS Dharmendra Bastola Immediately!

Communist Party of Nepal (Majority)

Central Committee

Press Statement

Release the Party General Secretary Immediately and Respectfully!

Our Party’s General Secretary, Comrade Dharmendra Bastola “Kanchan,” and Kavre District Secretary Comrade Bishnu Timilsina were arrested today, 17th February 2026 at around 5:40PM from Newroad Kathmandu, while they were engaged in organizational work. At a time when the nationwide Nepal Bandh program was being conducted peacefully and with broad public support, the party strongly condemns this cowardly style of arrest carried out by the present government.

We wish to make it clear that the so-called election announced by the government cannot, under any circumstances, address the people’s aspirations for good governance, stability, and self-reliance. Rather, the very logic of such an election is pushing the nation’s sovereignty toward a serious crisis, which has become a matter of grave concern. Therefore, the arrest of the Party General Secretary in the name of activities opposing the election is, on the one hand, a mockery of the minimum democratic rights related to peaceful programs; and on the other hand, a naked display of intolerance and fascist tendencies that seek to close the doors to dialogue and consensus.

We strongly demand that the government immediately and respectfully release the arrested comrades, including the General Secretary.

We sincerely appeal to all patriotic, progressive, leftist, and human rights–oriented organizations and institutions across the country to take initiatives for their honorable release.

With revolutionary greetings!

INDIA:webinar 27 february 2026 - Conservation Projects in Adivasi Areas: Another Face of Militarisation and Land Expropriation

Session 9: Conservation Projects in Adivasi Areas: Another Face of Militarisation and Land Expropriation

Registration is now open for this next session of ‘Deadline or Death Sentence: State Violence and Indigenous (Adivasi) Peoples' Resistance in India'

Date: Friday 27 February 2026

Time: 8:00 pm India; 2:30 pm London; 9:30am New York

Registration link: https://uva-live.zoom.us/meeting/register/fohe9FiiTS--n-iDWkQKsQ

This series critically interrogates the Indian state’s 2026 “Maoist-free” deadline and its violent consequences for Indigenous peoples’ lives and livelihoods.

The Adivasis have consistently resisted the structural violence by Indian forest authorities against their relationship with landscape and forests they depend upon and live in. More recently, in Adivasi regions across India, conservation areas such as tiger reserves are being created alongside extensive militarisation and military operations in the name of wiping out the Maoist/Naxalite movement. Our speakers will explore the deep links between Indian state’s forest conservation policies with its wider goals of expropriating Adivasi land, forests, and natural resources on behalf of capital.

INDIA: Ajith about agreement India/European Union (EU)

Treaties deepening dependence

After days of suspicious double talk the essentials of the US-Indo trade agreement have finally been revealed. Apparently, key agricultural and diary sectors in India will remain protected; for the time being. ‘Apparently’, because the draft agreement where this is claimed to be written down is nowhere to be seen. ‘For the time being’, because the publicly available Joint Statement explicitly states that tariff reduction or elimination for American agricultural products will be applicable for “additional products” too. That is, in addition to those specified in the statement. What will get included in that remains to be seen.

This agreement with the US and the earlier one with the European Union (EU), are being presented by the Modi regime and it’s Godi media as extremely beneficial to India. Some others criticise the one with the US, while applauding that with the EU. Leave aside the disastrous impact they will have on various sectors of India’s economy. Will trade treaties with advanced economies ever be good for India? No. The economies of the US and EU countries are ‘advanced’ precisely because countries like India are kept ‘backward’. They constitute the vast majority in Asia, Africa and Latin America. This comes from the division of the world into imperialist countries and oppressed countries. As a result, trade between these two type of countries will always be unequal. This is not a matter of this or that sector, but of the economy as a whole.

It is claimed that a lot of fresh investments and modern technology will flow in because of these treaties. It will, if it’s profitable for imperialist finance capital. But that will only make India more dependent. The only way it can start the journey to self-reliance is by cutting itself off from the global imperialist system and unleashing the huge potential of its crores of people. That calls for revolution, not trade treaties.

Towards demostrations 28 march in all countries -against Operation Kagar /support people's war! support CPI (maoist) - First public call of ICSPWI

All in struggle 28 march 2026!

The world campaign against Operation Kagaar has denounced that imperialists and Modi’s government set the target to wipe put the Indian revolutionary movement and the CPI (Maoist), that are the real political alternative for the proletarians and the people’s masses of India.

 Modi claims he will wipe out the people’s war, the revolutionary movement and the CPI(M) by 2026.
The International Committee to Support the People’s War In India (ICSPWI)  has called all the revolutionary parties and forces, the friends and comrades of the Indian revolution, to meet the challenge launched by the Modi’s government with a one-year-long campaign from March 2025 to March 2026.  . A mobilization in the streets, in the workplaces, in the squares.

The CPI(M) and the masses in India are withstanding and repelling the Operation Kagaar, based on the defense of material interests and living and working conditions of proletarians, peasants and masses of India.
In any sector of the economy, the Modi’s regime is unloading on the masses the crisis brought by imperialism, its lackeys and  the policies at the service of the big Indian capitalists, as Adani, Ambani and others.
However, there is no chance for capitalist system to way out its deep crisis; rather it produces a new wave of struggles and mass uprising.
The Indian regime supports the genocidal campaign in Palestine because itself, with the Kagaar operation, commits massacres, forced deportations, murders of villagers and leaders of the tribal masses, social activists and revolutionary leaders, as well as persecute the journalists and human rights activists who oppose it.

To support the people’s war in India and the Communist Party of India (Maoist) is one of the fundamental tasks of the revolutionary, anti-fascist, anti-imperialist communist movements of the world.
The Communist Party of India Maoist leads a people’s war to make the New Democratic revolution, to free the country and the working masses from exploitation and oppression and, united with the proletarians and the popular masses in the world, march to the proletarian and socialist revolution in the world.
For this reason, it is due to all of us to stop imperialism, Modi’s regime and their genocidal hand, as part of the global struggle against imperialism, that leads to wars, fascism, poverty and oppression of peoples.
 

all in struggle 28 march 2026!

 
STOP OPERATION KAGAAR! RELEASE ALL POLITICAL PRISONERS IN INDIA/ STOP ADIVASI'S GENOCIDE! 

SUPPORT PEOPLE'S WAR IN INDIA - SUPPORT CPI (MAOIST)  UNTIL THE VICTYORY!

Long live proletarian Internationalism !

INDIA: Campaign Against State Repression (CASR) in solidarity with comrade Pramod Mishra jailed in miserable conditions in Bihar

Campaign Against State Repression (CASR)

The Campaign Against State Repression (CASR) has expressed its full solidarity with political prisoner Comrade Pramod Mishra. This 74-year-old revolutionary activist is currently imprisoned in the Beur Central district of Bihar, where he has been detained for nearly three years. Rashtra Pramod Mishra has been identified as a member of the  CPI (Maoist) Central Committee and the Politburo. He began starving on January 26 in protest against the inhumane and squalid living conditions in the Beur district. His demands are simple and legal: adequate meals and breakfast, access to daily necessities, and telephone facilities to communicate regularly with family members and lawyers. At the age of 74, being captured in this situation means a slowing of the violence associated with his detention. The failure to provide adequate nutrition, basic facilities, and communication opportunities reveals the punitive and vengeful nature of the administration, particularly towards political prisoners and those who protest. Districts across India are increasingly becoming the focus of the class and political repression campaign. Prisoners associated with the revolutionary movement, indigenous people, laborers, and farmers are routinely discriminated against. While the government claims to have improved living conditions in some districts, the reality is that all districts suffer from excessive prison overcrowding, inadequate food, ill-treatment, and a lack of contact with family. This issue is not limited to isolated incidents but is widespread throughout the country. Father Stan Husband and Professor G. Ann. The death of Saibaba demonstrates how medical deprivation, inhumane long-term detention, and neglect lead to loss of life. Both were elderly, critically ill, and repeatedly denied timely access to medical or basic facilities. This death is not an accident, but the result of an inhumane system that treats political prisoners as "valuable."
Pramod Mishra's condition is no exception; it is a widespread phenomenon among political captives, prisoners, and protesters waiting to be detained against state exploitation and violence. The persistent neglect of elderly and sick detainees reveals the anti-public attitude of the current system.
CASR Demands:

1. Immediate provision of adequate and essential nutritious food for all prisoners.

2. Ensuring telephone facilities for regular communication with family and lawyers.

3. Independent and transparent medical observation, given Pramod Mishra's age and ongoing hunger.

We urge democratic forces, civil rights agencies, and mass movements to raise their voices against the repressive actions of the prisons and to intervene immediately to prevent irreparable harm.
Repression cannot extinguish prevention.
The struggle for dignity and justice continues. Solidarity said:

COLOMBIA: Informe de las acciones en Colombia contra la operación Kagaar en la India (Revolución Obrera)

Revolución Obrera
febrero 9, 2026



Camaradas del Comité Internacional de Apoyo a la Guerra Popular en la India (CIAGPI), reciban un fraternal saludo. Les presentamos el informe sobre lo que, de acuerdo con nuestras condiciones, hicimos en la semana del 26 al 30 de enero, atendiendo el llamado a realizar acciones en el marco de la reunión de la Comisión de Asuntos Exteriores del Parlamento Europeo – Subcomisión de Derechos Humanos en Bruselas.

El 14 de enero se publicó en el portal Revolución Obrera el llamado Adelante con la campaña contra la Operación Kagaar en la India, explicando porque oponerse a la operación Kagaar en su pretensión de aplastar la lucha del pueblo Adivasi y la guerra popular que dirige el Partido Comunista India (Maoísta).



El día 27 de enero en nuestro acostumbrado podcast de los martes Vanguardia Obrera, nuevamente hablamos de la Guerra Popular en la India, de la campaña genocida de Narendra Modi y la importancia de la solidaridad internacionalista con la revolución en la India, además de condenar las agresiones de los imperialistas a pueblos como el palestino, sirio y la reciente a Venezuela.

Se orientó a los camaradas en distintas regiones del país movilizarse alrededor de la campaña y de esto reportamos las siguientes actividades:

En la ciudad de Pereira se realizaron rayados en la Universidad Pedagógica y Tecnológica de Pereira; se hizo una breve reunión informativa alrededor de las implicaciones de la reaccionaria Operación Kagaar. Y en próximos días se pondrá un trapo en un punto visible de la ciudad.


En Bucaramanga se realizaron rayados en algunos puntos de la ciudad denunciando la Operación Kagaar y apoyando a la Guerra Popular.



En Bogotá el día 30 se realizó un mitin en el centro de la ciudad en apoyo a la guerra popular, al Partido Comunista de la India (Maoísta), denunciando la Operación Kagaar y el régimen fascista de Narendra Modi, y llamando a la solidaridad internacionalista con nuestros hermanos en la India, Palestina, Venezuela y demás países agredidos.



Finalmente, se ha hecho el llamado a todos los camaradas y amigos cercanos para organizar desde ya la movilización programada para la semana del 21 al 28 de marzo que tiene carácter mundial; a esta movilización llamamos a todos los revolucionarios que vienen realizando acciones antiimperialistas a sumarse, pues también ella hace parte de la lucha mundial del proletariado y los pueblos contra los países y monopolios imperialistas que, en medio de sus preparativos de guerra por un nuevo reparto del mundo, invaden, masacran e interfieren en los países que dominan.

Camaradas del CIAGPI seguiremos dando a conocer a las masas de nuestro país la importancia de la guerra popular y la revolución en la India, dirigida por el Partido Comunista de la India (Maoísta), y cumpliendo, de acuerdo con nuestras condiciones, con las tareas de la campaña internacional de emergencia contra la genocida Operación Kagaar que llevan adelante los enemigos del proletariado y los pueblos del mundo.

FILIPINAS: Groups launch protests across Europe against Operation Kagar in India (NDFP)

Various groups, parties, and committees in Belgium, the United Kingdom, and Austria launched protests to denounce the bloody and repressive Operation Kagar in India. They timed these actions with the meeting of the European Parliament Foreign Affairs Committee–Human Rights Subcommittee in Belgium on January 27, and with the visit of officials of the European Commission and European Council to India on January 25–27.

The International Committee to Support the People’s War in India (ICSPWI) protested mainly at the European Parliament and the Indian Embassy in Belgium. They urged the European Commission to denounce the Modi regime’s campaign of repression and killings in India under Operation Kagar. The National Democratic Front of the Philippines (NDFP) International Office expressed support for the day of protest.

The Modi regime has massacred hundreds of Indian civilians, particularly Adivasi (indigenous people), since the implementation of Operation Kagar in January 2024. It has mobilized 60,000 paramilitary, police, and military forces and used advanced military equipment such as drones in the operation. Numerous cases of bombings, killings, arrests, and other human rights violations have been documented for over two years.

Operation Kagar is a counterinsurgency campaign aimed at crushing the revolutionary movement led by the Communist Party of India (Maoist). The Modi regime aims to annihilate the revolutionary movement by March 2026 to open the way for large mining corporations to exploit India’s resources and the ancestral lands of the Adivasi. The Modi regime also plans to establish a Brahmanic Hindutva state (fascism directed against religious minorities and oppressed social groups).

According to the NDFP International Office, as in the Philippines and its own revolutionary struggle, the failure of counterinsurgency campaigns exposes the basic truth that reactionary violence cannot defeat revolutionary movements born out of social conditions. “Support the struggle of the Indian people for national and social liberation!” it declared.

MYANMAR: People's Liberation Army (PLA) in action - - info

 Myanmar: The Communist People's Liberation Army (PLA) continues to act as an important force in the struggle against the junta military dictatorship. The fighters of this force are ready to make the highest sacrifices to protect the rights and interests of the people.

TURQUÍA:WE CONDEMN THE OPERATION TARGETING ESP! atik

 

WE CONDEMN THE OPERATION TARGETING ESP!

Turkey woke up to more operations on the morning of 3 February. In Antalya, Adıyaman, Urfa, Rize, Bursa, Van, Tekirdağ, Gaziantep, Samsun, Dersim, Malatya, Diyarbakır, Kocaeli, Yalova, Balıkesir,
Denizli, Ankara, İzmir, Sakarya, Adana and Mersin, the Socialist Party of the Oppressed (ESP), the Socialist Women's Assembly (SKM), the Federation of Socialist Youth Associations (SGDF), the Active News Agency (ETHA), DİSK/Limter-İş, Polen Ecology, BEKSAV and many other institutions, a total of 96 revolutionaries were taken into custody during raids on homes and institutions. Among those detained were ESP Co-Chair Murat Çepni, ESP Central Executive Committee member Okan Danacı, SKM spokesperson Tanya Kara, ETHA editor Pınar Gayip, Oppressed People's Law Office lawyer Özlem Gümüştaş, and DİSK/Limter-İş General Secretary Beycan Taşkıran.

The fascist Turkish state, on the one hand, is carrying out massacres against Kurds, Alevis and Druze by working with the HTŞ government in Syria, and on the other hand, is intensifying arrests and detentions against democratic forces within the country. It attacks marches organised to stop the massacre in Rojava and to support the people's resistance, uses violence against those participating in the protests, and detains dozens of them. Today's operation is part of this.

The arrest of representatives of institutions and journalists who actively participate in actions supporting Rojava, who report on it, and who try to raise public awareness is a warning to mass actions. But we know that no matter how many are arrested, no matter how much torture is inflicted, the struggle of the oppressed peoples who resist cannot be suppressed. Because the struggle of the oppressed peoples and the working class in Rojava and in many parts of the world is legitimate. No fascist dictatorship has been able to suppress this legitimate struggle, nor will it be able to do so in the future. These legitimate struggles continue with the solidarity of workers and labourers around the world, and we firmly believe that this solidarity will continue in all areas in the future.

In Rojava, the fascist HTŞ; in Palestine, fascist Israeli Zionism; in Iran, the fascist Mullah regime; and in India, the fascist Modi government continue their attacks, massacres, and genocides against the local people with the support they receive from imperialist powers. However, in many countries around the world, particularly in Europe, hundreds of thousands of people have taken to the streets to oppose these massacres and support the people's resistance.

As the Confederation of European Turkish Workers; the Socialist Party of the Oppressed (ESP), the Socialist Women's Council (SKM), the Federation of Socialist Youth Associations (SGDF), the Active News Agency (ETHA), DİSK/Limter-İş, Polen Ecology, and BEKSAV. We reiterate our solidarity with the revolutionaries who have been arrested. We call on local and migrant workers and labourers in Europe, as well as democratic forces, to oppose this operation. Currently, let us oppose the attacks against the people in Turkey, Rojava, Iran, Palestine and India with street actions. Let us unite in solidarity with them by making the voice of the oppressed peoples' just struggle heard by the entire European public.

Detentions and Arrests Cannot Stop our Just Struggle!

Long Live the Legitimate Struggle of the Oppressed Peoples!

Long Live International Solidarity!

NEPAL: Coalition Of Left Parties Staging Election Boycott Condemns The Arrest Of RCPN Leading Cadre Purna Bahadur Khadka -info

 

Kathmandu, February 3, 2026: A coalition consisting of six communist and left-wing parties that have been boycotting the March 5 House of Representatives (HoR) elections have demanded the immediate release of Purna Bahadur Khadka, who was recently arrested by Nepal Police following a public function in Dudhouli, Sindhuli, on Monday.

A central joint struggle committee of the coalition parties has warned the government of a stronger political movement if it interferes with their protest programmes. In a statement, the committee condemned the arrest of Khadka, who is also a leading cadre of the Mohan Baidya-led Revolutionary Communist Party of Nepal.

The committee accused the government of attempting to disrupt its peaceful struggle by detaining Khadka and issued a stern warning against further interference.

“We strongly warn the government not to interfere in our peaceful struggle programmes and to immediately release Comrade Purna Bahadur Khadka unconditionally,” the statement said.

INDIA: news from CPI (Maoist)

Statement:

We strongly condemns these indiscriminate and unannounced aerial attacks of Central Reserve Police Forces (CRPF) Director General (DG) Gyanendra Pratap Singh on 20th January 2026  attacks on the Maoists in the Saranda forests, since 21st January 2026 helicopter gunships have begun arbitrary and unannounced firing on the villages of Baliba, Tinilposi and Digge and the Babudera forests for hours every day. 

The lack of any information to the adivasi population of the forest villages before these sudden aerial attacks and indiscriminate firing has terrorized them. Many adivasis are now fleeing their villages in terror.

We condemn this heinous cowardice and barbaric stream of killings... extend the red salute to these beloved 17 comrades and pay them a tearful homage on behalf of the committee.n the other hand, on 22nd January 2026 the CoBRA 209 unit, Jharkhand Jaguars and the District Police Force at the Chotanagra police station area hatched a coordinated plot by setting GPS traps and poisoning the food of 20 comrades stationed between the Bahada and Kumti villages of Saranda forests, successfully trapping and attacking them. In the resulting encounter, 17 comrades including Central Committee member and Secretary of the Bihar-Jharkhand Special Area Committee Com. Patiram Maji alias Analda alias Ramesh and Orissa State Committee Member Com. Lalchand Hembram alias Anmol alias Sushant were martyred. The survivors are being executed one by one. 

 We call on all sympathetic organizations, revolutionary and popular organizations, people, peasants, workers, students, youth, intellectuals and respected citizens to strengthen their resistance with great efforts against these unannounced aerial attacks and string of murders.

We denounce police action a heinous act of barbarity because the police and Cobra units have often sent GPS trackers to attack our rest stops and camps. Some attacks have resulted in grave losses while others have been defused. In other cases, many soldiers of the CoBRA 209 unit have fallen prey to their own GPS traps. They also resorted to sending food and medicines laced with poison. While our comrades have also fallen prey to these schemes, we have usually been able to save them. This time as well, these disgusting and heinous means of murder have been used. This is why casualty rates of first 10, then 15, then 16, and finally 17 individuals are being reported. These cruel authorities will likely also torture and then execute our surviving three comrades who are in their custody.

With revolutionary greetings,

Red Salute., 

Azad, Bihar-Jharkhand Special Area Committee,
