The convention was inaugurated by CITU State President Vijendra Mehra. CITU District President Kuldeep Dogra concluded the session. Speaking in detail on the current political situation, he called upon the workers to oust the Modi government from power and defeat the BJP. He said that ever since the Modi government has come to power for the last ten years, it has been continuously attacking the rights of workers. The Modi government has abolished the forty-four labor laws achieved after long struggles and sacrifices of the workers and changed them into four labor codes that are anti-labor and pro-capitalist. These labor codes benefit only the corporate world and industrialists. These have been designed to take the lives of workers towards bonded labor. Due to the actions of the Modi government, unemployment in the country has reached its peak and inflation is skyrocketing. Even the security of the country is being jeopardized by bringing Agniveer Yojana to close the way for the children of poor people to get government jobs through the army. The country’s natural and public resources are being handed over by the Modi government to a few of its corporate friends. Religious issues are being used as a shield by the Modi government to divert people’s attention from everyday issues. On one hand, taxes like GST have been continuously imposed on the public, on the other hand, tax, and loan waivers worth lakhs of crores have been given to corporate houses. This shows that the Modi government is busy filling the coffers of its few corporate friends by putting a huge tax burden on the pockets of the common people. To divert people’s attention from this blind looting, nefarious attempts are being made from time to time to divide the country on religious issues. CITU has given a call across the country against this loot and dictatorship of the Modi government that the anti-worker, anti-national, anti-people Modi government which is dividing the country should be uprooted. To take this link forward, a workers’ manifesto was issued and a resolution was taken to oust the BJP’s Modi government from power in the Lok Sabha elections.
