Bhubaneswar zonal unity of the Communist Party of India has strongly protested against transfer of shares of the successful public sector NALCO to private operators. In a rally, on November 19, it also condemned the central government’s irresponsible act of allowing FDI in multi-brand retails, as that would ruin India.
When the country is crumbling in social sector due to blatant lack of food security, the government’s collaboration with capitalists in projects that shrink the agricultural coverage is making the situation worse for the people; the CPI leaders declared in a meeting presided over by the Zonal Committee secretary Sura Jena.
The party’s national council member Ramakrushna Panda, Khurda District Council member Asok Sahu, Kailash Puhan, G. Govinda Deshra, Lingaraj Sahoo, Radhakant Satpathy and Sudhir Das addressed the rally.
