Draconian designs for imposing slavery on the working class.

Recently, the Parliament has passed three Labour Codes. One Labour Code had already been passed earlier. All these four Labour Codes, passed in the Parliament by the Modi Government, are taking away the hard-won  rights of the workers, as well as trade unions. 

 

The CITU has published articles in English and Hindi, explaining how the Labour Codes passed in the Parliament are going to convert the workers into slaves. Both the articles, in English and Hindi are enclosed herewith. At least, leading comrades should read these articles.

Evo Morales's Leftwing Party records stunning victory in Bolivia.

Evo Morales's Leftwing Party has recorded a stunning victory in Bolivia’s presidential election, though the results are officially not declared so far. Luis Arce, the candidate of Morales's Movimientoal Socialismo (MAS) had secured more than 50% of the votes. The US backed Carlos Mesa, received only 30% votes.

 

The United States is playing dirty games in Bolivia. It toppled the Leftwing government, led by Evo-Morales last year. Presently, Evo-Morales  has taken refuge in Argentina. However, the people of Bolivia have proved in this election that, they do not approve the dirty politics of the United States and that they are strongly supporting the Leftwing Party, Movimientoal Socialismo (MAS).
