Today, is the 58th
anniversary of the Glorious Strike of the Central Government Employees which
started on 11th July 1960 and continued for 5 days on the basic demands of the
workers. That was their biggest strike in independent India till then, which shook
the edifice of the Government.
It was suppressed by
all repressive measures putting thousands in jail, dismissal, termination etc.
But the workers never surrendered. The mighty one day Token Strike on 19th
September 1968 reminded the Government 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.
