We all are witness to the series of bomb blasts across the country including
in Delhi. The series of blasts from Hyderabad, Bangalore, Jaipur, Malegaon
to Delhi have pushed the people to the brink of xenophobia and have given
teeth to the government to brazen towards a fascist policy of governance.
The Delhi blast spurt the government into action and as usual it led to the
fixed target-hunting of two young Muslims in the Muslim ghetto of Jamia
Nagar without an iota of evidence proved against the deceased so far for
their alleged 'terrorist activities', accompanied by the mysterious gunning
down of a Delhi Special Cell police officer.


The atrocities on Christians in Kandhamal, Orissa and the spate in the
attack on the churches and other Christian institutions in Karnataka,
Tamilnadu with the active connivance of the respective governments stand
testimony to the sanction for the Hindutva fascist activities in the recent
times—killing, raping and maiming. Worst kinds of atrocities are being
committed by the fascist Hindutva forces in Jammu, Karnataka, Maharashtra,
Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh and elsewhere.


In view of this increasing onslaught of the right- wing Hindu
communal-fascist forces, a public meeting is going to be held in the
University of Delhi by students and teachers. We invite you to come and
participate in the meeting.
