MAMATA BANERJEE WITH MAOIST CHATRADHAR MAHATO

MAMATA BANERJEE IN SUPPORT OF MAOIST TERRORISTS IN LALGARH
Miss Mamata Banerjee is not merely a poetical leader. She is constitutionally elected representative to the Parliament. Besides, she holds an important portfolio in the cabinet of Dr. Manmohan Singh. It is a fact that not only nationwide but also in a much worldwide publicized function at the Rashtrapati Bhavan in New Delhi Miss Banerjee took oath of office from the President to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution as well as will also do her best to defend the integrity, sovereignty and secular fabric of the country.

On the other hand, the Maoists have affirmed their commitment to the objectives not in terms of the seizure of lands, crops, or other immediate goals, but the seizure of power. Within this perspective, participation in elections and engagement with the prevailing 'bourgeois democracy' are rejected, and all efforts and attention is firmly focused on so-called 'revolutionary activities' to undermine the state and seize power.

There is no denying the fact that the Maoists have already been able to create a reign of terror in many parts of the country by way of brutal murders of innocent people, creating free zones and resorting to all types of most destructive methods.

Both the Prime Minister and the Home Minister have termed Maoists as the largest single threat to the safety and security of the country.

But it is most shocking to find that Miss Mamata Banerjee and six other Central Ministers are actively hand in gloves with the Maoists who are waging a war against the nation. They are often seen hobnobbing with them. The Maoists and Naxalites decorate her political platforms and official railway functions. Besides, she has not only demanded the withdrawal of the on going offensive by the Joint Forces at Lalgarh against the Maoist terrorists but also has warned of burning the whole of West Bengal if any action is taken against the ‘so-called’ intellectuals having direct connection, role and involvement in the brutal murders and antinational destructive activities carried out by the Maoists.

It is often said that everybody irrespective of affiliation or position is equal in the eye of the law. Anyone why helps the terrorists in any manner, whatsoever, is punishable under U.A.P. Act, 2009. If it is so, why “Unlawful Activities Prevention Act” should not be used against Mamata Banerjee and six other Central Ministers belonging to the TMC for helping the antinational Maoist terrorists directly?

TMC LEADER FALLS PREY TO MAOIST BULLETS

JUST BEFORE 2 DAYS OF THE MURDER OF NISHIKANTA MONDAL, TMC PRADHAN OF SONACHURA GRAM PANCHAYAT IN NANDIGRAM, EAST MEDINIPUR, WEST BENGAL AT NIGHT OF 22-09-2009 THE FOLLOWING NEWS APPEARED IN THE “TELEGRAPH’, KOLKATA ON 20-09-2009.

“TRINAMUL ON MAOIST NOTICE

Threat over Nandigram ‘extortion’ PRONAB MONDAL AND ANSHUMAN PHADIKAR Sept. 20: Maoists have warned that Trinamul Congress activists in Nandigram will “pay with their lives” if they don’t stop threatening and extorting money from CPM activists.

A senior Maoist leader has said Trinamul workers in Nandigram who were “torturing” poor villagers just because they were CPM supporters would soon have to face verdict in the “people’s court”.

Nandigram, which was once a Left bastion, had become the launch pad for Trinamul’s resurgence after the land acquisition backlash that paid the Opposition party rich dividends in the panchayat and Lok Sabha elections.

During Mamata Banerjee’s land movement in Nandigram, the government and the CPM had often alleged that her party had the active support of the Maoists. Trinamul had dismissed such suggestions.

However, once the Centre sent paramilitary forces to Lalgarh and a security operation was launched, the Maoists started publicly criticising Trinamul for failing to stop the crackdown despite being part of the Union government. Maoist leader Kishanji had then accused Mamata of failing to return the favour extended in Nandigram.

The threat issued now by another Maoist leader has injected a menacing edge to what has so far been confined to occasional criticism.

Trinamul workers in Nandigram will have to “pay for their act, maybe with their lives”, the senior rebel leader — a CPI (Maoist) central committee member — said in a recent interaction.

In Nandigram, Trinamul men are targeting poor CPM supporters. They are extorting money from them and denying them jobs under the rural job scheme, he said.

The Telegraph spoke to some CPM supporters who said they were at the receiving end of Trinamul’s “extortion”.

One of them, 30-year-old Narayan Das, was not allowed to bring his father’s body back to his Sonachura home in Nandigram and Trinamul workers would not let him perform the last rites until he coughed up Rs 2 lakh.

Narayan, a supervisor with a construction company in Cuttack, said: “When I reached Chandipur, about 40km from Sonachura, my relatives called me on my cellphone and told me I would not be allowed to perform my father’s last rites until I paid Rs 2 lakh to the local Trinamul leaders. Finally, my relatives took the body to the village for cremation and I had to return to Cuttack.”

Narayan said the local Trinamul leaders have also prevented his brothers from cultivating five bighas that his father left for them. “They allowed cultivation on one bigha after I paid Rs 10,000. But they are still demanding Rs 2 lakh.”

Another Sonachura CPM supporter and a farm labourer, Rabin Mondal, alleged that he was being denied work under the National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme. “I am not being given work under the 100 days’ scheme. No one is giving me a job as a farm labourer as Trinamul leaders have asked villagers not to,” said 30-year-old Rabin.

A CPM supporter in Gokulnagar who works as a clerk in the irrigation department in Mahishadal fled his home a year ago after Trinamul activists demanded Rs 2 lakh from him too.

He now lives near his work place, but his wife and two children are still in Gokulnagar. “My wife and two sons live in my two-storey house in the village. I have 10 bighas to cultivate. So I gave them Rs 1 lakh. They have said they will leave me alone only after I pay the remaining amount,” he said, requesting anonymity.

The Trinamul leadership in Nandigram denied that CPM supporters were facing extortion threats. “Our workers have not extorted money or resorted to any oppression. There is no question of demanding money from CPM supporters,” said Abu Taher, Trinamul leader and chief of Nandigram Panchayat Samiti.

The carbine which was used in killing Nishikanta Mondal, TMC leader of Nandigram and Pradhan of Sonachura Gram Panchayat on 22-09-2009 was the same one which was looted by the Maoists while murdering Rabindranath Kar, his wife and bodyguards on 30-12-2005 at Bandowan in Purulia.

THIS IS LEFT TO YOU TO ARRIVE AT A REASONABLE CONCLUSION.

INTELLECTUALS OF WEST BENGAL STAND FOR MAOIST BUTCHERS

In the evening of 2nd October, 2009 some ‘so-called’ intellectuals of West Bengal met the press at Kolkata and demanded the following.

(1) The joint force is to be withdrawn from Lalgarh immediately.

(2) The government should apologize for arresting him deceitfully.

(3) He should be given enough judicial protection.

(4) The Government should sit with the Maoists for an amicable solution.

While their press meet in progress, 2 more innocent villagers were killed in Lalgarh by the Maoists. These perverts and foreign agents also maintained a studied silence over the killing of 17 innocent unarmed helpless and defenseless persons including women and minor children in Khagaria district of Bihar at night of 01-10-2009.

All along these shameless hypocrites and frauds justified the butchering of innocent people by the Maoists. They did not utter even a single word against the merciless killings by them? On the other hand, they termed the antinational terrorist and murderer Chatradhar Mahato a people’s leader and hero and also demanded enough judicial protection for him avoiding the fact that he is the same person who is responsible for the killing of hundreds of innocent unarmed people and who has amassed huge wealth and properties worth crores of rupees through extortion, blackmailing and other illegal activities. They even tried ridiculously to create an impression to the effect that Chatradhar Mahato has no connection with Maoists and the people being killed in Lalgarh are due to internal feud within CPI (M). These liars utter all these ludicrous words in spite of knowing fully that the Maoists have called Bharat Bandh on 03-10-2009 in protest against the arrest of Chatradhar Mahato and Kobad Gandhi.

The people of the state have not yet forgotten that these ‘pseudo’ intellectuals have so long been supplying money and arms to the antinational Maoist terrorists. The confession made by Chatradhar Mahato also reportedly corroborates the same. Not only that. They also smuggled out terrorists in their vehicles to protect them from police action.

Instead of expressing repentance to the nation and the grieved families of the murdered people for their activities, these sold out arrogants still sing and dance to the tune of antinational forces and terrorists.

There is no denying the fact that everybody is equal in the eye of law. Nobody is above it. If anti-national terrorists can be arrested and put to trial why these enemies of the country in the guise of ‘pseudo’ intellectuals should not be put behind bars for trial in the interest of the nation?

SO-CALLED MAOIST SAVIOURS BUTCHER TRIBALS IN LALGARH

Lalgarh is a Gram Panchayat within the Binpur block in West Midnapur district. There are nine GPs in the same block. Binpur Assembly constituency is composed of the GPs of Binpur I and II.

The Maoists have been active in the bordering areas of Purulia, Bankura and West Midnapur districts since 2001.

Having tasted blood in Nandigram, several attempts were made by the Trinamool Congress and the Maoists to create similar situations elsewhere in West Bengal. On 2nd November 2008, an attempt was made by the Maoists to assassinate the West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharya, when he was returning from Shalboni in West Midnapur along with the Union Steel Minister after laying the foundation stone of a steel plant. The landmine exploded by the Maoists missed the Chief Minister’s convoy narrowly. The police launched operations to arrest the culprits and some suspects were arrested. In the process, however, the police indulged in some unjustifiable repressive measures in the Chotopelia village in Lalgarh, especially against some tribal women, one of whose eye was severely damaged. 11women lodged formal complaints about police torture.

This angered the local tribals who launched protests against the police led by the Bharat Jakat Majhi Marwa (BJMM), a body of adivasi community leaders. They demanded treatment and compensation for the injured tribal women, action against the guilty police officials and release of the arrested suspects. On14th November the BJMM leadership reached an agreement with the local authorities. The administration accepted most the demands and provided treatment and compensation for the injured women, released eight of the accused including three school going boys who were arrested and the SP and the Inspector in Charge of Lalgarh police station were transferred.

However, a Committee named Police Santrash Birodhi Janasadharner Committee (PSBJC) was formed under the leadership of Chatradhar Mahato. It was backed by the Maoists. It accused the BJMM leadership of selling out. The PSJBC blockaded the entire Lalgarh area by digging up roads and felling trees, similar to Nandigram, and made the area out of bounds for the police and the administration. They demanded a public apology by the District Superintendent of Police of West Midnapur and other policemen by holding their ears and crawling with their nose to the ground. The administration tried to open dialogue with them but the PSBJC continued with the blockade insisting upon the public apology by the police officials. That the PSBJC was not interested in resolving the issue in a peaceful and democratic manner became clear with the continuing blockade.

It is revealed in The Economist, June 27-July 3 issue under the caption of ‘India’s Naxalite: a rag-tag rebellion’ the name of Chatradhar Mahato and his activities covering some 2000 villages with a joint force of PSBJC and ‘Maoist’ guerrillas.

The local tribal people were not in favour of the undemocratic tactics adopted by the Maoist backed PSBJC. The Bharat Jakat Majhi Marwa organized a rally to protest Maoist violence on 9th December in the Bhulabheda area of Belpahari, where more than 10,000 adivasis had gathered. Sudhir Mandal, the adivasi leader who organized the rally, was shot dead by the Maoists less than 48 hours later. The PSBJC formed a parallel administration and its Maoist allies prevented the entry of the police and administration in the villages of Belpahari, Binpur, Lalgarh, Jamboni, Shalboni and Goaltore.

It is a known fact that since 2001, ‘Maoists’ started to build their contacts in West Midnapur, Bankura, and Purulia districts and in certain areas, waged concerted attacks against the Left forces targeting the CPI(M) as the main enemy. The following is the latest list of persons almost all CPI (M) leaders, members and supporters butchered by Maoists.

Apart from this, they have killed 23 police personnel, 1 doctor, 1 nurse and 4 government employees on duty.

Just before the 15th Lok Sabha elections were announced, the TMC Supremo Mamata Banerjee herself went to express her solidarity with the pro-Maoist committee (Peoples Committee against Police Atrocities) formed in the area under the leadership of a former Trinamool Congress leader Chatradhar Mahato. She shared the same platform to address the people in the presence of the leadership of the PCAPA. No other political party was allowed to visit the area, which had been blockaded by the committee. However, while Left party leaders were being targeted and sought to be killed, she along with other TMC leaders could go there without any security!

Today when she disclaims any contact with these groups does it have any credibility? It is also now clear as daylight that the TMC is playing the main role in creating chaos and disorder along with the other right-wing political parties as well as the left extremist political outfits. This fact has been corroborated by one of the topmost leader of the CPI (Maoist), Koteswara Rao (Kishenji), through a TV interview. He confirmed that they helped the TMC to drive out the CPI (M) from Nandigram and adjacent areas. In return, he wanted the TMC leader who was now a Union Minister to come forward and help them to do same in Lalgarh. These details are also brought out in this pamphlet.

It is clear that the blockaded area of Lalgarh was being used by the Maoists to launch murderous attacks, especially targeting CPI (M) activists and supporters. The objective of the blockade was also to shield the Maoists, who were behind the assassination attempt on the Chief Minister. This became clear when Maoist cadre Sasadhar Mahato (Bikash), the prime suspect behind the assassination attempt, appeared before the media within the “liberated zone” of Lalgarh on 16th June with an AK 47 slung on his shoulders. Bikash said on NDTV: “On 2nd November, our plan was to execute Buddhadeb. If people want Buddhadeb hanged, who will hang him? It will be us of the People's Liberation Guerrilla Army.” He was making these statements with the CPI (M) Local Committee Office in Dharampur burning in the backdrop and the corpse of CPI (M) activist Salku Soren, who was killed few days back by the Maoists, lying beside it without cremation for three days. It was in the backdrop of this murderous spree by the Maoists, that the State Government was forced to launch a combined operation of the state police and the central security forces on 18th June 2009. The objective was to combat the Maoists and restore normalcy in the area.

MAOIST BRUTALITY IN LALAGARH

MAOISTS EXPOSE MAMATA BANERJEE

The Lalgarh episode has once again brought to the fore the nexus among the Trinamool Congress, the pseudo intellectuals, some politically motivated media, mysterious NGOs, so-called humans rights’ organizations and the Maoists.

The PSBJC Convener Chatradhar Mahato, a contractor by profession, is the brother of this Maoist Bikash. In an interview to NDTV on 22nd June, Chatradhar Mahato stated that he has been an activist of the Trinamool Congress and actively campaigned for it during the Panchayat elections in 2008. He also admitted that his brother is a Maoist. Mamata Banerjee herself has provided active support to the Lalgarh blockade throughout and even addressed a rally of the PSBJC in Lalgarh on 4th February 2009, sharing the dais with Chatradhar Mahato. As the security forces’ operation in Lalgarh began, the double standards of Trinamool Congress and Mamata Banerjee got badly exposed:

17TH JUNE 2009

Partha Chatterjee, Trinamool MLA and leader of Opposition in WB Assembly: “If the Maoists are unleashing terror, then why is the CPI (M) not asking the government to ban the organization? The ‘Maoist drama’ has the support of the chief minister.” (Asian Age)

18TH JUNE 2009

Maoist leader Kishenji: “People will block the roads, the armed forces that come will be taught a lesson, the central govt., the Buddhadeb govt. will be taught a lesson…We are asking Mamata too, she was with us in Nandigram…now we want to know what stand she will take. She is now in the cabinet, the sole member from her party… The tribals here are sitting in protest against the Paramilitary forces, ready to fight them. Which side will Mamata support is what we want to know.” (NDTV)
20th June 2009

Mamata Banerjee: “If statements by Biman Bose and Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee linking our party with Maoists are not withdrawn within 48 hours, we will agitate to demand sacking of the government by the Centre. We don't believe in individual killings and don't have link with Maoists. We have been demanding ban on Maoists in the state…He himself (Buddhadeb Bhattacharya) had said once that he is fond of Maoist books and literature and has them at his residence.” (Outlook)

Kishenji: “She is playing a political game. Even though she is a member of the Central Cabinet, she has not said a single word against sending Central forces to Lalgarh. Now, to gain sympathy in West Bengal, she is saying that the police and the CPI (M) unleashed a reign of terror in Jangalmahal. This is clearly a case of double standards on her part. The mask has fallen from her face…After the Lalgarh movement started, Mamata Banerjee visited Lalgarh. The locals allowed her to visit this place. But now she will not be able to come to Lalgarh or any parts of Jangalmahal. We have also decided that we will prevent her from entering Nandigram and Singur, where we were part of the movement.” (Asian Age)

22ND JUNE 2009

Kishenji: “Mamata’s real interest is to grab power in West Bengal. Had she been sincere, she would have stepped down from the Union cabinet because the Centre has joined hands with the state government to unleash a reign of terror in Lalgarh” (India Today)

29TH JUNE 2009

Mamata Banerjee: “I am once again urging the central government not to provide support to the CPIM at Lalgarh and use central forces to unearth illegal arms stocked by the party…I urge the Centre to immediately convene an emergency meeting to be attended by Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee and Home Minister P Chidambaram to review what actually is happening at Lalgarh in the name of flushing out Maoists.” (Hindustan Times)

1ST JULY, 2009

Mamata Banerjee: “What is going on at Lalgarh is a total drama. There are no Maoist activists in the region. If there had been any ultra Left activists, they have by now already fled the area and the Left Front government has allowed them to flee. Now in the name of running joint operations against the Maoists, the Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee government is just trying to regain its political base…” (Economic Times)


CONCLUSION

Despite the fact that not even one person has been injured or killed by the security forces since the beginning of the joint operations in June 2009, Maoist sympathizers have launched a high pitched campaign against “state repression” and “atrocities” in order to mislead people on the ground situation in Lalgarh. The fact is that more than 75 CPI (M) activists and supporters have been assassinated by the Maoists since the launch of the operations. Efforts by the Maoist sympathizers and the Trinamool Congress to stall the operations of the security forces are nothing but an attempt to perpetuate the reign of terror by the Maoists.

Some ‘pseudo’ intellectuals, some politically motivated media and some so-called Humans Right’s Organizations of West Bengal have again appeared on the streets to criticize the arrest of dreaded Maoist terrorist Chatradhar Mahato by police in Lalgarh on 26-09-2009. Besides, they have also demanded his immediate release. These “so-called” intellectuals habituated to sing, dance and perform tricks and feats of jugglery to the tune of imperialists, big corporate houses and Mamata Banerjee have been trying to project the terrorist and extortionist responsible for gruesome butchering of hundreds of innocent people in a couple of months in West Bengal as a “tribal hero”. During this mayhem the “so-called” intellectuals on the pay roll of imperialists maintained a studied silence and did not spend a single word to condemn the inhuman activities of the terrorists who are having direct links with other terrorist outfits of north-east and across the border enemy nations aiming at to subvert our country.

As a matter of fact, some of these ‘pseudo’ intellectuals represented by some dramatists, singers, actors, actresses, writers and poets have already been able to manage Life Long Free AC Railway Passes and berths on different Committees of the Indian Railways especially set up at the cost of the nation to accommodate them only and especially for their unequivocal support to the rainbow alliance of Maoist-TMC-Congress-SUCI during last Parliamentary Elections. Now, they have been standing in queue at the door of Mamata Banerjee waiting for tickets to State Assembly Elections in 2011, Padma Shree, Padma Bhusan, Padma Vibhusan and other national awards.
People must, therefore, remain cautious and alert about these purchased stooges and agents of imperialists who can take recourse to any anti-national activity and stoop to any level to in the interest of their vested interests. Some so-called intellectuals have also supported with money and arms to subvert democracy.

The unholy nexus among the Trinamool Congress, the pseudo intellectuals and the Maoists need to be exposed thoroughly.

MAOIST BRUTALITY IN LALGARH

CHIDAMBRAM, BDONOT IGNORE NATIONAL SECURITY FOR POLITICAL GAINS

In a Press Conference in Delhi on 30-09-2009, Shri P. Chidambaram, Hon’ble Home Minister, termed the arrest of Maoist terrorists Kobad Gandhi and Chatradhar Mahato as grand achievements. At the same time he did not forget to criticize the Left Front Government in West Bengal for its shortcomings in tackling the Maoist problem in the state.

But he did not utter even a single word against his colleague Railway Minister and six other Central Ministers who are directly hand in gloves with the Maoists. He also did not say why innocent people are falling prey to the brutalities of Maoists in Bihar, Jharkhand, Orissa, Chhattisgarh, Andhra Pradesh and other states.

Just before the 15th Lok Sabha elections were announced, the TMC Supremo Mamata Banerjee herself went to express her solidarity with the pro-Maoist Committee (Peoples Committee against Police Atrocities) formed in Lalgarh under the leadership of Maoist-cum-TMC leader Chatradhar Mahato. She shared the same platform to address the people in the presence of the leadership of the PCAPA and Maoists. No other political party was allowed to visit the area, which had been blockaded by the said Committee. However, while Left party leaders were being targeted and sought to be killed, she along with other TMC leaders could go there without any security!

It is an open secret that these ministers from West Bengal have been using the Maoists for petty political gains. They openly support Maoists, keep close contact with them and hold regular meetings with them. These ministers belonging to TMC not only frequently demand withdrawal of joint operation against Maoists but also some of them even visited Lalgarh recently to embolden Maoists to carry out their destructive activities and mass killing of tribals in the name of so-called ‘revolution’. The function of cabinet is a collective responsibility. The role of the UPA Government is, therefore, nothing but dubious, double standard, antinational, treacherous, dishonest and fraudulent. The objective of destabilizing a duly constitutionally elected State Government and encouraging terrorist outfits is aimed at to achieve some petty political gains at the cost of the nation. The result is the present spate of one after another murder and violence in West Bengal.

The Maoists have again butchered 17 persons at night of 01-10-2009 in Bihar. Is the Government of West Bengal responsible for the same?

The entire nation therefore expects that instead of criticizing others on political considerations and gains, Shri Chidambaram should act in the best interest of the safety and security of the entire country without any jaundiced eye.

WE ARE ON THE SOME BOAT BROTHER!

WB MEDIA HAS NOTHING TO SAY AGAINST MAOISTS

A few days back instead of appreciating and encouraging the police personnel, who were able to arrest the dreaded cold blooded Maoist murderer Chatradhar Mahato from Lalgarh risking their own lives, some politically motivated media in West Bengal raised their voice against the ‘so-called’ deceitful manner of his detention. They also tried to make a hue and cry on the plea that their noble profession has been tarnished beyond redemption.

During interrogation Chatradhar Mahato has revealed shockingly that immediately before the start of the join operation in Lalgarh on 17th June, 2009 many Maoist terrorists and Maoist sympathizers represented by students of Jadavpur University and other professions were able to escape the joint forces in the guise of reporters.

It is strange that no media has raised even any least protest against this tarnishing of their noble profession by the Maoists. This attitude on their part triggers the impression to gain ground that except police anyone can use the disguise of their noble profession for any purpose, whatsoever, including that of antinational character and nature.

They believe that as long as it is against the CPI (M) and the mainstream Leftists, it is right, praiseworthy and above criticism.

MAOIST BUTCHER SPEAKS ABOUT SO-CALLED INTELLECTUALS

With the passage of each single day more and more startling and shocking revelations made by dreaded Maoist butcher Chatradhar Mahato about the dubious role of the pseudo intellectuals of West Bengal during interrogation by the investigating agencies are coming to light. It is exposed by him how these so-called intellectuals represented by some writers, dramatists, poets, painters, ignoring national as well as state interests, were instrumental not only in lending moral support to the cold blooded killer Maoists by organizing meetings, processions, meetings, seminars, conventions but also in collecting and supplying money and arms to them for the purpose of creating a reign of terror and panic in Lalgarh and Jangalmahal areas as a result of which hundreds of villages are oscillating from the deepest gloom to panic consequent upon ghastly murder of innocent tribals and people irrespective of caste, creed and religion, plunder, loot, arson and what not. They still brave this ordeal of Maoists. Many more facts are still in the cupboard to unfold.

To tell the truth, they helped all sorts of disruptive forces to throw the normal life in the state out of gear. Since the episodes of Nandigram, Singur and Rizwanur Rahaman they have been hell bent upon the resurgence of Maoist-TMC-Congress-SUCI Alliance in West Bengal. It is shocking to say the least that they continue to plot in destabilizing the state by way of escalating violence and spree of murder out of Lalgarh and Jangalmahal.

In fact, the one and sole aim of these Maoist intellectuals is to instal Mamata Banerjee as the next Chief Minister of West Bengal by means of ensuring enormous political mileage to her as was done by them during the occurrences of Nandigram, Singur and Rizwanur Rahaman. Every now and then they continue to leave no stone unturned in innovating new ways and means to destroy the peaceful life of the people.

These pseudo intellectuals still donot feel shy in admitting their antinational role and criminal misdeeds which are against all norms of civilized behaviour. Now they have begun to put forward different kinds of unusual, ridiculous, strange and abnormal self contradictory versions and pretexts for falling Chatradhar Mahato after being caught red handed. They should not consider the people so naïve as to believe their assertions. The famed ‘intellectuals’ of Bengal passing their peaceful life in air-conditioned rooms and thinking themselves above the law of the land are nothing but a sham. They are the people who have neither knowledge nor understanding of the agonies of the tribals and the downtrodden. With their obligation to imperialism, these sold out pseudo intellectuals persist in their endeavour to advocate and promote the cause of the cold blooded murderers by way of adopting all sorts of dubious ways and methods.
