Red Salute to Comrade Partha Biswas

 

05-04-2010: Yesterday the Maoists Trinamool combine have gunned down Comrade Partha Biswas, Secretary of SFI, Harda Local Committee in West Midnapore, West Bengal. Armed Maoists surrounded Comrade Biswas in the evening in his village Malabati and fired two bullets in his head. Comrade Partha Biswas aged 25, was also the Joint Secretary of Belpahari Zonal committee of the organization. A commerce graduate from Shilda College in West Midnapore, he had been active in organizing the students in particular and the common people in general against the Maoist- Trinamool menace in the Belpahari region. 

 

He had been vocal against the politics of killing by the Maoists and the Trinamool Congress.

Comrade Partha Biswas happens to be the fourth martyr of our organization who has laid down his live after the last Lok Sabha elections. Previously Comrade A B Bijesh, our Thrissur District Secretariat member was killed by NDF fundamentalists in Kerala. In West Bengal in the district of West Midnapore alone two of our leading comrades Comrade Abhijit Mahato and Comrade Tilak Tudu had been killed earlier by the Maoists Trinamool combine.
Comrade Partha Biswas also happens to be the tenth student who got killed in West Bengal after the parliamentary elections either by the Maoists or by the TMC.

The SFI strongly condemns the brutal killing of Comrade Partha Biswas and appeals to all democratic minded people to isolate the proponents of such violence and killings. SFI calls upon all its units to protest this heinous killing in all the campuses of the country. SFI dips its banner of Independence, Democracy and Socialism saluting Comrade Partha Biswas. We pledge to keep up the ideological political resistance to the bankrupt and reactionary politics of the self styled Maoists who are killing Left activists and supporters at the behest of the anti-left alliance led by the Trinamool in West Bengal. On behalf of the SFI CEC we also extend our heartfelt condolences to the family and friends of Comrade Partha Biswas in this hour of tragic loss.
