Communism and violence are inseparable. Communists neither believe in democracy nor in the concept of nation. As per their ideology, Constituion is a Capitalist instrument and their party is above everything. On these lines, the CPM created a perfect model of electoral politics to perpetuate the political agenda of violence. Still, Communists are projected as the votaries of peace, Freedom of Speech and Human Rights in India. The nationwide protests by the nationalist organisations have busted this myth
Condemning the brutal persecution and merciless killings of political opponents by CPM in Kerala, the Forum Against Communist Terrorism (FACT), a nationalist outfit, held a nationwide protest on March 1. Tens of thousands of people from across the country participated in the protest marches in various states across the country. The protesters called for an end to Communist violence on RSS/BJP workers and urged Kerala State Chief Minister to act upon the political murder cases against the CPM criminals which are pending. More than eleven RSS/BJP workers have fallen prey to the sword of CPM cadres in a very short span of time, since the new LDF Government took over last year.

End Violence CPM : Notorious Anarchy
Nagpur
Protesting against the government supported atrocities of CPM in Kerala, a rally was organised by Lokadhikar Manch at Samvidhan Square (RBI Square) at Nagpur on March 1. Thousands of citizens from all walks of life participated in this rally. In his introductory speech, V Muraleedharan, former state president of BJP Kerala, narrated the horrific crimes and extreme brutalities perpetrated by CPM goons on volunteers of Hindu organisations.
In his speech, RSS Sar-karyavaha Shri Bhayyaji Joshi said that “The communist ideology has failed in the countries where it was born. Neither Russia nor China follows this ideology. In our nation, this ideology is limited to a few states only. One cannot enforce this ideology upon people if they are not ready to accept it. We appeal to the government in Kerala to control the violence or step down and allow the nationalist forces to run the government”
Bhaiyyaji said that in a democracy everybody has freedom of expression. However this should not be misused. “Kerala has been a pious land, land of great spiritual leaders like Adi Shankaracharya. However the atmosphere is now polluted by the government there. Same is the situation in West Bengal. In Kerala so many (RSS) volunteers have lost their lives. Those who have lost their lives had no self interest. And this does not end here. They are attacking women, children and destroying physical properties. This has gone to an extreme in last few months,” he said.

Mangaluru shuts down against Vijayan”s visit Mangaluru, the coastal city of Karnataka, saw a complete shutdown protesting against the arrival of Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on February 25.

Private shops and commercial establishments were mostly shut in Mangaluru and other parts responding to the bandh called for by VHP and Bajrang Dal to protest against the attacks on BJP and RSS workers in Kerala. |
Speaking on the occasion, BJP state president BS Yeddyurappa said that the CPM cadres were trying to hit the morale of the BJP/RSS in Kerala by indulging in spate of murders but BJP will bounce back. “The CPM led by its CM Vijayan is trying to kill all BJP activists in Kerala and this has become worst since Independence. We will never be bogged down by their threat and we will soon end the CPM rule in Kerala,” he added. RSS Kshetreeya Sanghachalak V Nagaraj, BJP MP from New Delhi Meenakshi Lekhi and many other leaders also addressed.
Tamil Nadu
As a part of the nation-wide protest against Communist violence in Kerala, over 5000 people from 13 districts of Uttar Tamil Nadu participated in the demonstration called for by the Forum against Communist Terrorism (FACT). In Chennai the protest was organised at Valluvar Kottam where speakers from various nationalist organisations condemned the inhuman and barbaric acts of the left parties, mainly CPM, in Kerala.
Addressing the gathering, BJP State president Tamizhisai Soundararajan said, “Spreading rumours like RSS and BJP are attacking communists, where the reality is the other way around, has become the call of the day. RSS never sheds blood, but gives blood; she insisted that there should be no more bloodshed.”
Karthikeyan from Hindu Munnani Iyakkam said, “The shocking revelations suggest how China was totally intolerant and dominating, towards its own people as the people were expected to give away their lands when the Government claimed. Rights of the women and state of the farmers were disregarded by the Government”. Another speaker Elangovan said, “We should all raise our voice against the killing of Hindus by Communists. Communism itself does not exist in the whole world, it is only in West Bengal, Kerala and Tripura with a common agenda to kill everyone who opposes them. They have no belief in God, but loot the people by collecting money through hundi collections.”
Prakash (UTN) Prant Sampark Pramuk said, “Communists always believe in intense hatred whereas RSS believes in sacred love as guided by Guruji Gowalkar. The RSS is being popular because we show no violence, but love only. The strength of the RSS is spreading like forest fire. Communism and Marxism are virtually on the last lap of their existence, they should be uprooted.”
Mumbai

If the CPI-M were to be vigilant against terrorism, these militants would not have reached Kanakmala. It is an open secret, that the CPI-M sought help of all jihadi Groups to come to power in Kerala,” the memorandum also said, requesting the President to use his good office to “stop these politically motivated murderous attacks and establish peace and amity in the state of Kerala”.
