Press Statement



The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued
the following statement:


The Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) severely condemns the brutal killing of
two CPI(M) activists in Komanapalli village in Bhadrachalam district of
Andhra Pradesh by a Maoist gang. 


The sarpanch of the village, Kaviti Rajulu and his father were dragged
out from their house by the Maoist gang and savagely murdered.


The Maoists are targetting the CPI(M) wherever they are working in the
tribal areas and amongst the rural poor. Apart from the killing spree in
West Midnapur and adjoining districts in West Bengal, the Maoists in the
recent months have killed a CPI(M) worker in Kanker district in
Chattisgarh and attacked a Party office in Sundargarh district in
Orissa.


These violent and murderous activities of the Maoists exposes their true
nature. They help the reactionary forces and the ruling classes by
targetting the cadres and workers of the CPI(M) belonging to the
oppressed classes who have been organising the people.


The CPI(M) will resolutely fight the Maoists and counter their
disruptive activities. The Polit Bureau calls upon the police and the
administration in Andhra Pradesh to track down the culprits responsible
for the murders in Bhadrachalam district.
