Olympic torch relay may be happening in New Delhi but CPM led West Bengal Government has banned all Anti China Protests in West Bengal!
Two weeks after it allowed Tibetan activists to hold a candlelight vigil, the CPM-led West Bengal Government has denied them permission to hold a three-day anti-China public rally scheduled to begin today forcing them to go indoors.
Ironically, there were as many as 11 rallies in the city during the day. These included a rally by the Trinamool in Park Circus to protest against the state government’s failure to check prices and a similar one by CPM supporters in Tollygunge to protest against inflation.
Chinese Consul General in Kolkata Mao Siwei was quick to give much deserved praise to CPM
“This is a correct decision because the Government of India made a commitment to the Government of China that no anti-China rallies will be allowed to take place anywhere in the country,”
Remember this is the same CPM which had said
right to strike is a fundamental rights of not only government employees but of the entire working class
I guess the for CPM Loyalty towards their masters in China is more important that "some fundamental Right" of people.
