Press Statement

 The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) has issued the following statement:

CPI(M) Condemns Bomb Blasts in Assam

 The Polit Bureau strongly condemns the serial blasts that have taken place in Assam killing over sixty people and injuring scores of others. These blasts are a continuation of the anti-national terror acts witnessed in various parts of the country in the recent past. These blasts have once again exposed the failure of the intelligence and security apparatus. The Congress-led UPA government at the Centre and the Congress government in the state must immediately take measures to correct these lapses and strengthen the security apparatus. 

The Polit Bureau conveys its heartfelt sympathy for all those who have lost their loved ones in these attacks. It demands adequate compensation to the families of the victims and the injured.
