Today is the 57th anniversary of the glorious
strike of the Central Government employees which started on 11th
July and continued for 5 days on the basic demands of workers.
That was their
biggest strike in independent India till then, which shook the edifice of the
govt. It was surprised by all repressive measures putting thousands in jails,
dismissal, termination etc., But the
workers never surrendered.
The mighty one day token strike on 19th
September 1968 reminded the Govt that the workers can never be suppressed all
the times.
On this day our Revolutionary salutes to all those comrades who sacrificed
their lives at the altar of struggle and also who faced inhuman suppression and
also the lakhs of workers who participated.
RED SALUTE to all those who showed
through their action that the united struggle is the right path.
