CPI Condemns Communal Vandalism

The Central Secretariat of the Communist Party of India vehemently condemns series of attacks took place in various places of North and West India. Every where these acts of vandalism by communal elements were unleashed in the name of protest against the movie Padmavat.
The ideology of intolerance nurtured by Hindutva forces provided conditions for such kind of inhuman activities. Through indulging in such kind of activities against art and culture and terrorizing innocent people they are undermining basic ethoes of the country.
The CPI expresses its solidarity with artists and cultural activists who are repeatedly under attack. The party urge upon central and state governments to act urgently to protect freedom of expression and ensure peaceful life for the people.
