2024 Lok Sabha elections are approaching. The capitalist parties, which are at the revising end of people’s discontent while in power, are coming back to the people with new faces and new guarantees. On the other hand, the SUCI Communist Party, which is organising movements against problems of the toiling people and peasants, is also contesting alone in this election. Our party has decided to field candidates in 151 constituencies in 19 states and 3 union territories of the country. This time in Karnataka, we are contesting in 19 constituencies.
The BJP-led NDA government, which has been ruling the country for the past 10 years, has ruined people’s lives. BJP raised its voice in 2014 on issues like price rise, unemployment and corruption, now it is silent. The much hyped ‘Gujarat Model’ is invisible. Youngsters are going to the warfields of Israel and Russia risking their lives, somehow to get some jobs. Leave about black money or Swiss bank accounts, all efforts are being made by BJP to prevent information about Electoral Bonds in SBI. India ranks abysmal in Global Hunger Index and Human Development Index. Instead of making policy intervention to improve the situation, BJP govt is branding these indeces as false! But Mr. Modi is talking about Viksit Bharat. Since the Congress ruled the country for so many years and ruined the country, they are asking to give one more chance to bring the country on the path of development. Earlier, during the Congress rule, they also used to blame the British in the same way. Yes, Ambanis and Adanis have evolved into the richest capitalists in the world. Express Highways with exorbitant tolls for the luxury cars of such modern billionaires are also built using people’s taxes. This is the development model of BJP!
On the other hand, BJP is looking for various ways like mandir masjid, CAA etc. to polarize people’s votes through divisive issues. To keep the Election Commission under its control, the Appointment of Election Commissioner’s method is also been amended.
People’s voice should be heard in this election against such communal, fascistic and capitalist policies. But INDIA, a lose alliance of various opportunistic regional parties led by the Congress is surely impossible to offer a truely secular, democratic alternative. There is no doubt that it is the Congress that served the country’s capitalists until the BJP grew and came to power. So the two alliances NDA and INDIA are two alternatives of the capitalist class.
But this election is a battle between capitalists and workers, between exploiters and the exploited. The left parties of the country had to build people’s struggles through a common front as an alternative for the exploited working class, the poor peasants of the country. An effective campaign must have been taken to stress that Elections are not the solution for then, but Socialism is the real solution. But the tragedy is that leftist parties like CPI, CPIM Joined the INDIA alliance to garner few MP seats. In such a situation, SUCI Communist Party has decided to contest independently in this election as an alternative to represent the voice of the oppressed people.
To strengthen farmers’ struggles, to fight for workers’ rights, to resist privatisation of essential sectors, to fight against NEP, to save public education, to uphold the interests of youth and women, we appeal the people to elect SUCI (C) candidates. Also, the State committee of the party calls upon the people to vote for honest, pro people candidates other than the three anti-people parties of the state, BJP, Congress and JDS, in constituencies where we are not contesting.
