Novo MEPR - July 2025
Due to the martyrdom of Comrade Basavaraj and the sacred internationalist duty to defend the Prolonged People's Wars of the proletariat, our organization joins yet another international campaign of the International Committee to Support the People's War in India (ICSPWI) alongside the Revolutionary Women's Movement (MRM). Since the announcement of the Mad Massacre, where 26 fighters of the PLGA and members of the CPI(Maoist), guards of Comrade Basavaraj, were killed by the army during Operation Kagaar, we have deepened our task to defend and propagate the greatest ongoing revolutionary process (1967 – present) since the capitalist restoration in China (1976).
Elevating the memory of Comrade Basavaraj is to remember what fiber a revolutionary is made of and what kind of man/woman can be considered a leader: the comrade lived a life entirely dedicated to the Indian people and offered capable leadership to the Maoist movement. The comrade lived almost his entire life underground and humbly took on his task, which, despite being advised to withdraw from Chhattisgarh, he remained and paid with his precious life the price of having advanced the revolution over the last 7 years.
Due to the serious shortcomings of our old leadership, little has been incorporated into the consciousness of even marxist groups regarding the defense of the Revolution in India, nor has the masses been explained what the People's War is and the understanding of the magnitude of the Indian process, its red corridor, and its extensive practical and theoretical experience. This embarrassed gonzalist group not only boycotted the first May campaign but forged its participation in the June campaign. Their dishonesty is so blatant that the old MEPR published a video from 2024 in June of this year as if it were recent¹.
They use a video from 2024 to forge their participation; the proof is that in the video, there are our militants who broke with the National Coordination in August and founded the new MEPR (Novo MEPR). It is a shame—yet far from surprising—that the leadership of this movement deceives its own base and the International Communist Movement with such a video. The video recorded in July 2024 was recycled and does not include at any moment solidarity and defense of the memory of Comrade General Secretary of the CPI(Maoist), Basavaraj, nor any mention of the current stage of Operation Kagaar. As for the merit, the video itself proves that it is a fake, artificial solidarity, gathering a small group of militants to take a photo, without any clarification and dissemination of the PPW in India among the masses.
At the event held in São Paulo last June, poorly publicized and attended, supposedly in defense of the New Democracy Revolution in India, there is no mention in the central banner of this revolutionary process, but only the self-promotion of another ghost organization created by them, called the Anti-Imperialist League. The only “solidarity” there is self-serving, as seen in the image that the event organizers themselves released. These are methods of deception, trickery, and the most abject political opportunism!
We warn international proletarian organizations not to trust anything that comes from the mouths or pens of the embarrassed Brazilian gonzalists, the same ones who spread in their press as if it were true that Covid originated in China (CIA version), that Iran was weeks away from obtaining its atomic bomb (Mossad version, denied even by the White House's advisory), and who defend as if it were revolutionary the bourgeois military and pro-russian imperialism government of Burkina Faso². Moreover, it is quite curious that neither the so-called AIL nor the International Communist League (ICL) have issued any statement regarding this, nor have they been able to speak unifiedly about the Zionist-American aggression against Iran. Has the eclectic and principle-less unity among committed, embarrassed gonzalists and semi-maoists within their ranks already crumbled?
For us, the slogan raised by Ajith of “Naxalbari will never die” is the order of the day for revolutionaries and all youth, who must learn from the experience of Naxalbari to the present day. Therefore, we tirelessly strive to keep alive in our country the memory of him and all the naxalites cut down by the genocidal Operation Kagaar. It is with this aim that we join the efforts of the International Committee to Support the People's War in India (ICSPWI), legitimate forum recognized by Indian Maoists, and we urge other democratic and revolutionary organizations to do the same, as well as the Committee itself to enhance its organic structure and capacity to attract new forces.
Street Actions – Denunciation during the BRICS
Shortly after the confirmation of the fall of Comrade Basavaraj and his loyal guards – who one by one fulfilled their duty to their Party by protecting the General Secretary – the ICSPWI made an internationalist call to denounce the genocide in Palestine and India. We established the slogan of the campaign “Defend the Indian Revolution and Palestinian Liberation!”, understanding that in our country it is urgent to propagate the process of People’s War in India, which is developing the New Democracy revolution.
In Rio de Janeiro, during the BRICS summit, Narenda Modi met with Lula and other leaders to discuss their plans. This Brahmanic fascist must be treated as what he is: a murderer.
Therefore, we raised a banner on the main street in the city center, where the delegations and tourists passed. We participated in the act of denouncing the genocide in Palestine that took place at Cinelândia Square just a few blocks away from where the BRICS meeting occurred.
We continue to participate in the Palestine actions with the commitment to also bring the denunciation of Operation Kagaar and Modi's cursed plan, after all, not only is Modi a great friend of Yankee imperialism, but he also buys weapons from Israel, weapons that kill Palestinians, Indians, Brazilians, and oppressed peoples all over the world.
We not only occupied the streets during the actions, but we also left marks throughout the city so that the population is called upon and encouraged to learn about the process of the Indian Revolution and to defend the Palestinian Resistance as their own struggles.
Additionally, we also joined the organization of the film-debate event of the documentary "Red Ant Dream"³ last sunday (13th July) at Al Janiah, an important Cultural Center and palestinian resistance space in São Paulo. In the debate, attendees expressed their opposition to Operation Kagaar and in defense of the People’s War in India.
Activities at Universities
In the week of the massacre, we held rallies at universities to honor the memory of the General Secretary of the CPI(Maoist) and to denounce the genocidal Operation Kagaar:
Following our commitment, we included in our newsletters the denunciation of Operation
Kagaar, explaining the reasons why Modi's Brahmanic Hindutva Fascist Government launched this offensive against the Naxalites and against all the peoples of India – especially the indigenous Advasis and Dalits – declaring its bloody desire to end the People’s War that defends and organizes the Indian people against successive governments, liberating entire areas from State power. Areas that the bourgeoisie aims to plunder; the fact is that Modi's party (BJP) made 104 agreements with large corporations to plunder natural resources from the Advasi areas of Chhattisgarh, where the last month-long operation was concentrated and where the general secretary of the CPI(Maoist) was assassinated.
At the Fluminense Federal University (UFF), we proved that fascism can be fought with the methods taught by the Third Communist International, just as Dimitrov taught us, and we gave the fascists a good beating. We also launched our Anti-Fascist June, with panels, self-defense and cultural activities. At all our events, we promoted the fight against fascism and imperialism in India, which is led by the Naxalites.
At our cultural soiree, we presented not only books on our communist history at our stand, but also the bulletin denouncing Operation Kagaar, and speeches by comrades who linked the anti-fascist struggle worldwide with the revolutionary struggle.
We renew our commitment to continue defending the glorious People's War in India and the Communist Party of India (Maoist) that leads it. We understand that the fall of the general secretary of the CPI (Maoist) was an immense loss for the people of India and for the exploited and oppressed throughout the world. And that the Maoists are avenging his assassination and will continue to prove that Naxalbari will not die!
