The civil rights group Forum Against Corporatization and Militarization in a statement on plans to crackdown on “64 democratic progressive organisations” in Jharkhand under the pretext of the need to investigate their Maoist link, has alleged that this an attempt to suppress dissent against corporate loot and create an authoritarian state.
The organisations which may see crackdown include People's Union for Civil Liberties, Association for Protection of Civil Rights, CPI-ML Red Star and Revolutionary Youth Association, among others, the statement, with a letter addressed to the DGP of Jharkhand, said, insisting, the authorities must assure that no such witch-hunt will be carried out, and there is no attempt to raid and harass people opposing displacement.
It is important to understand that in previous months, in an NIA raid probing so called “Maoist links" in Jharkhand, various anti-displacement and labour activists such as Damodar Turi, Bacha Singh and others were raided. They are targeted under the presumption that Visthapan Virodhi Janvikas Andolan (VVJA) is a “Maoist Front". Furthermore, other activists raided along with Turi and Singh are founding members of Jharkhand Jan Sangharsh Morcha (JJSM). It is pertinent to mention that both of these joint fronts are named in the said media reports. Therefore, looking at the recent crackdown on anti displacement activists in Jharkhand; coupled with recent NIA Clampdown in Eastern Uttar Pradesh, slapping of UAPA on anti-displacement activists of Niyamgiri Suraksha Samiti and arrests of Dozen of people protesting against rapacious mining and displacement in Mali Parbat ranges, Burhanpur in Madhya Pradesh and Kaimur Mukti Morcha in Bihar; all exposes state's modus operandi in matters of anti-displacement movements. So it will not be an over assessment to say that building an atmosphere of crackdown might be underway in Jharkhand, in light of these media reports.

On 20th September, 2023, certain news portals made a claim that state police and crime branch of Jharkhand government are initiating investigation into suspected Maoist link of 64 organisations, majorly comprising of organisations working on question of democratic rights, tribal rights, women, peasant and working class etc. The very next day, a joint statement was issued by some of the named organisations, to Director General of Police, Jharkhand; denying the allegations by clarifying their commitment to the democratic cause and the demands of the local people. The said statement also demanded clarification regarding the allegations made in the media report, however, no such clarification has been furnished by the police.It is important to understand that in previous months, in an NIA raid probing so called “Maoist links" in Jharkhand, various anti-displacement and labour activists such as Damodar Turi, Bacha Singh and others were raided.

An atmosphere of crackdown might be underway in Jharkhand, in light of some media reports
What is even more concerning and eye opening is the naming of organisations like APCR, RYA, CPI-ML- Red Star who are known for working on various issues across the country and have separate ideological positions than the Maoists. Even more ironical is the naming of a Gandhian organisation like Ekta Parishad. The list is long and stretches across ideological and issue based spectrum. If the agencies are actually probing such allegations or if its even a “red scare” tactic, the list is so broad and encompassing ideological as well as organizational boundaries to make it evident that State is adamant to suppress any force that resists displacement and corporate loot. It is clear indication that no force will be spared in the state’s attempt to create “red scare" and brutal crackdown to increase the loot of our resources, by domestic as well as foreign corporates. The state is justifying the intensification these crackdowns and corporate loot simultaneously, all in the name of eliminating the Maoist Movement and development.
Forum Against Corporatization and Militarization (FACAM) demands that the DGP and Jharkhand government must issue a clarification on such claims, assure that no such witch-hunt will be carried out; and stop raiding and harassing the people opposing displacement. We also call upon all democratic progressive forces and justice loving people to stand united against such crackdown on anti-displacement movement to protect our resources, environment and the people’s livelihood.

2000 YEARS AGO IT WAS THE BRAHMIJNS AND KSHATRIYAS !
TODAY IT IS THE BANIAS
I QUOTE BR AMBEDKAR IN PAGE 4357 of Selected Works of Dr BR Ambedkar
The Bania is the worst parasitic class known to history. In him the vice of money-making is unredeemed by culture or conscience. He is like an undertaker who prospers when there is an epidemic. The only difference between the undertaker and the Bania is that the undertaker does not create an epidemic while the Bania does. He does not use his money for productive purposes. He uses it to create poverty and more poverty by lending money for unproductive purposes. He lives on interest and as he is told by his religion that money-lending is the occupation prescribed to him by the divine Manu, he looks upon money-lending as both right and righteous. With the help and assistance of the Brahmin judge who is ready to decree his suits, the Bania is able to carry on his trade with the greatest ease. Interest, interest on interest, he adds on and on, and thereby draws millions of families perpetually into his net. Pay him as much as he may, the debtor is always in debt. With no conscience to check him there is no fraud, and there is no chicanery which he will not commit. His grip over
the nation is complete. The whole of poor, starving, illiterate India is irredeemably mortgaged to the Bania.
In every country there is a governing class. No country is free from it. But is there anywhere in the world a governing class with such selfish, diseased and dangerous and perverse mentality, with such a hideous and infamous philosophy of life which advocates the trampling down of the servile classes to sustain the power and glory of the governing class? I know of none
BUT THE INDIAN DUDS DO NOT GET IT !
THHE ENTIRE POST PRODUCTION SUPPLY CHAIN IS CONTROLLED BY BANIAS WHO ARE O/S THE FISCAL NET.IF FARMER GETS RS 1 THE USER PAYS RS 10 !
THAT RS 9 OF VALUE HAS A ECONOMIC VALUE ADDITION OF RS 2 ! IT CAN BE OUTSOURCED TO WALMARRT FOR RS 1.5
IF YOU ELIMNINATE THE BANIA - YOU HAVE PARADISE !
