ATTACKS ON WORKING CLASS CAN BE RESISTED
BY THE UNITED STRUGGLE
The present NDA Government lead by BJP after coming in power is
going ahead to intensify the so called economic reforms in the wake of neo-liberal
economic policies. Within these two years every decision taken by this Government
is in favour of Corporates/Capitalists and against the working class. Subsidy
to the poors on LPG is being snatched away in a phased manner. The rates of
petroleum products have been deregulated and handed over to market forces. The
rates of crude oil have come down drastically
but no benefit has been given to the public. The Treasurery of the Government
and Oil Companies are being filled up. Subsidy on fertilizers , seed,
electricity and irrigation water is being reduced, resultantly hardship is being created to
farmers. Fees in Government educational Institutions like IIMS and IITs is
being enhanced putting more burden on common man. The prices of essential
commodities mainly food items is increasing daily. No recruitment in Government
services and Public Sector, Private Sector is also not generating more jobs resultantly lakhs
and lakhs educated youth is wondering on the roads in search of job. Lakhs and Lakhs
vacancies are available in Central Government Departments like Railways,
Defence, Postal, Audit, Income Tax and other Departments. Coporatization and
Privatisation of Government Departments and Public Sector is in process. 100% FDI
in Railways and 49% in Defence has been declared. Disinvestment in profitable
Public Sector is going on. Labour Laws have been amended in favour of Industrialists
and Capitalists.
All the Central
Trade Unions and Independent Federations are launching struggles continuously
and consistently. Last 2nd September-2015 Strike was historic in
which about 15 crorers workers from all sectors participated which resulted in
increase of ceiling limit of bonus.
Recently
Government had issued two orders one imposition of income tax on withdrawal of
EPF which was protested strongly by the workers and government has to roll back
these orders.
Again on 21st
April-2016 Government of India issued notification restricting the employees to
withdraw the amount from EPF. Under
these revised rules the employee was permitted to withdraw the employees share
from the fund. Which is 12% of the wages? However it was prescribed that the
employer’s share of contribution towards the provident fund which is 3.67 % of
wage, would be allowed to be withdrawn only at the age of 58 years.
When this move
of Government was opposed and protested by the
workers launching an united
struggle, the Government of India was compelled
to withdraw the said notification.
With these two
examples the working class should clearly understand that to resist the attack
in the wake of neo-liberal economic
policies i.e. . Globalization policies, the united strong movement of working
class is urgently required.
All the Central
Trade Unions and Independent Federations after convening National Convention on 30th March, 2016 has declared One Day Strike on 2nd
September,2016 in support of their 12
points Charter of demands which are related to all sections of society and
working Class.
Further the
convention has called upon all the trade unions and Federations across the sectors to widen and consolidate the unity
at grass root level and
prepare for country wide united
movement and observe following
programme of action:
(i) Joint
Conventions and Campaigns during June-July-2016 in state, districts and at
industry level and take initative to involve peasants, agrilabourers and mass
of the people in campaign.
(ii) Day Long Mass
Dharna /Satyagraha in the Capital of States and Industrial Centres preferably
in the auspicious day of 9th August-2016(QUIT INDIA DAY).
NFPE calls upon
the entirety of Postal , RMS and GDS employees to launch the agitational
programmes as declared by the Central Trade Unions and make all the programme including ONE DAY NATIONAL STRIKE ON 2nd
SEPTEMBER-2016 a historic success.
If we fight
unitedly we can resist the attacks on working Class in the wake of
globalization policies.
