Condemn Modi Government’s move
to end support to Palestine
22/12/2014

The air of departure from the position of empathy with Palestine and stance to vote in support of Palestinian cause in the international forums including that of the United Nations has been thickened by the Modi Government as the reports have come up with explicit indications of such surreptitious moves.  

It is extremely denigrating and retrogressive a shift in the foreign policy of our nation that had been long up held standing stormy and malevolent periods in history. We unequivocally condemn this blemishing move of the Modi government.  
     India had undauntedly voted against the partition of Palestine in 1947,
had voted against Zionist Israel’s admission in the UN in 1949
and had held on to the position of empathy with and support to Palestine through all the decades; irrespective of the change of governments.

  This had been formed through the anti imperialist liberation struggle of our nation; bred and brought up by the blood and sweat of the valiant men and women who fought that epic struggle against the British imperialism; and, had been led by great leaders of the nation to high emblematic positions of the republic in the international forums such as the UN. Mahathma Gandhi had categorically stated against the imposition of a Jewish state upon the people of Palestine as early as in 1938 itself.

 Hence, departing from the wisely taken , long held, time tested and independent path that our country had moved on is a choice for doom and for servitude to US led imperialist camp. It is treacherous to the friendly people of Palestine, who had been with us all along to guard peace, secularism, freedom, non-alignment, and mutual respect of sovereignty.

 We call upon all the patriotic, democratic and peace loving people to rise in protest and rally in resistance to this pro-imperialist pro-Zionist move for shift in the foreign policy to that of discarding the vote in support of Palestine.
