IMPHAL, Sep 30 : The Socialist Revolutionary Party (SOREPA), Kangleipak has shared its thoughts on several issues on its raising day (October 1).
A statement issued by SOREPA Chairman Toijam Ibochou has paid homage to all the martyrs who laid down their lives in the struggle to safeguard the integrity and freedom of Manipur as well as all those who were killed in this struggle.
The Chairman has also conveyed best wishes to all the people including teachers, Meira Paibis, peasants, workers, journalists and fraternal revolutionary organisations of Kangleipak/Manipur and WESEA.
The Government of India’s sectarian and discriminatory policy has de-humanised a large number of people in the entire WESEA region including Kangleipak/Manipur who are already impoverished and economically backward.
The Government of India and its collaborators have been conspiring to ignite and sustain communal conflicts in the region, Ibochou alleged.
The main objectives of the Government of India’s policy are earning huge amounts by manufacturing drugs and subjugating the sustained liberation movement by transforming the same movement into a communal conflict, he said.
He alleged that the limited number of MLAs, Ministers, contractors and other capitalists and their Delhi masters have been destroying the integrity of Kangleipak/Manipur by promoting communal politics in both the hills and the valley.
Most of the communities in South East Asia and WESEA have been fighting to safeguard their identities. Communities fighting for their identities cannot work together.
They cannot transcend the idea of ethno-nationalism and it appears they have been overlooking the necessity of going beyond ethno-nationalism and forming a Nation. This is one ideological weakness of South East Asia and WESEA, the SOREPA Chairman said.
He maintained that protecting the identity of each and every community is the foundation for an egalitarian society and an independent Nation.
All the communities of Kangleipak/Manipur will be able to protect their identities only when there is political freedom in a united Kangleipak/Manipur, he said.
Just as all the communities lived together under a confederation called Kangleipak/Manipur, all the communities need to wage a war of liberation collectively and free Kangleipak/Manipur from Indian occupation, Ibochou said.
He then called upon all the communities not to support communal conflicts.
Communal conflicts will only keep all the communities under the control of India, he said.
On account of political instability in South and South East Asia, people of some communities migrated to hill areas of Kangleipak/Manipur, and they were encouraged by the Government of India to settle in Kangleipak/Manipur.
By planting communities who look physically similar to Kanglei/Manipuri people, the Government of India has been scheming to suppress the liberation movement of Manipur/Kangleipak and portray that there is no freedom movement but communal conflict, the SOREPA Chairman said.
He said that settler colonialism is an integral part of India’s alleged neo-colonialism.
After the liberation of Bangladesh in 1971-72, a large number of Bengali Hindu fled Bangladesh and settled in WESEA. The indigenous people of Twipra/Tripura were completely overwhelmed by immigrant Bengali Hindus.
Sikkim was annexed to India in 1975 after coaxing and inciting the immigrant population to wage a movement for integration of Sikkim with India, Ibochou said.
He said that a similar situation is unfolding in both Asom/Assam and Kangleipak/Manipur.
He also accused the Government of India of not only encouraging immigration of ethnic minorities from Bangladesh, Nepal and Myanmar but also giving them land rights.
It is now obvious that the deep States of India and western countries have their hands in the political instability seen in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Nepal, he alleged.
From a geo-political perspective, India’s deep State has been working to keep WESEA and the Himalayan States as a frontier against China, he continued.
Pointing out that WESEA including Manipur/Kangleipak is becoming a region of keen contest for the geopolitics of global superpowers, the SOREPA Chairman asserted that the deep States of India and western countries have their hands in the political turmoils seen recently in South Asia and Himalayan States.
He alleged that the Government of India has been using settler colonialism as a weapon to consolidate its neo-colonialism and also underscored the growing need for all the revolutionary organisations of WESEA to work together.
But the success of such a united revolutionary movement also depends on the dynamics of the global geo-politics, he said.
Saying that today is the age of Artificial Intelligence or AI, the SOREPA Chairman asserted that the ongoing war of liberation needs people who are adept in using AI.
AI will be necessary in education, economic activities, new warfare and protection of National sovereignty, he said.
The present generation must know AI if they must move forward, Ibochou added while also underscoring the need for grooming healthy youngsters who can think in the right perspective.
