NEW DELHI: At the level
of the West Bengal state, 113 Left mass organizations have come together to
form the Bengal Platform of Mass Organisations (BPMO).
The BPMO has decided to conduct `jathas’ all
over the state from November 14 to 22.
In the first phase, these jathas will cover 64,222 polling booths in the
state out of a total of 77,242. Close to
17 lakh comrades will be participating in the 11,269 jathas.
During the course of this programme, 11,313
mass meetings will be held both in urban and rural Bengal. This is part of the struggle launched by the
Left parties on a 15-point charter of demands linking these up with the local
issues.
The main thrust of this
programme is to resist the ongoing attacks on democracy by the Trinamool
Congress and its state government
through the spread of violence, intimidation and terror.
Issues of safeguarding and strengthening
secularism and resisting the continuous economic burdens being imposed on the
people will form the three major issues around which these programmes will be
conducted.
