Tribal lands being looted under ‘pro-corporate' policies: Dipankar

'Today, the looting of Adivasi land in the country has become an organised process. Governments are undermining legal protections like CNT-SPT under pro-corporate policies,' he said addressing the two-day national council meeting of the Adivasi Sangharsh Morcha (ASM) here. He said that the Communist Party of India (Marxist–Leninist) Liberation would continue its struggle to protect 'Jal, Jungle, Jamin' (water, forest, land) of tribals. Ranchi, Jun 8 (PTI) CPI (ML) Liberation general secretary Dipankar Bhattacharya on Sunday alleged the tribal lands are being looted in the country under 'pro-corporate' policies. He alleged the plunder of minerals and encroachment on forest areas are being justified in the name of development. 'Those who raise their voices against this loot face repression, arrests or false cases. Birsa Munda taught us that where there is oppression, rebellion will erupt. We must move forward with this spirit,' he added. Clifton, ASM in-charge and CPI (ML) Central Committee member, said that representatives from across the country are sharing their experiences in the two-day meeting.
