The scant regard for the opposing views on the provisions of the legislation has led to their ratification without proper debates and discussions in both houses of the parliament. In addition to the demand for unconditional rollback of the three farm laws, the farming community had also placed certain demands before the central government before agreeing to call off the protests. The central government has not only been non-responsive but has also been insensitive to the point of obscenity when it went silent on even asking for the resignation of parliamentarian and minister of state Ajay Mishra Teni, who has been accused of targeted killings of protesting farmers in Lakhimpur Kheri in Uttar Pradesh.</span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;">We are observing the 'two-day' nationwide strike called by central trade unions and farmer organizations to highlight the anti-working class policies of the central government and their reluctance to address the concerns of the farming community.</span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The day reminds us of the long struggle undertaken by the working class to successfully demand a guarantee from the state in accessing wage-based employment. Despite having clear provisions in the Directive Principles of State Policy and forming an important component of the 'right to life with dignity' guaranteed by the constitution, it took more than 50 long years for the political leadership to recognize the same. Though all the demands we raised during our decade long non-violent struggle to uphold the 'right to work' are yet to be met, the day is still marked with reverence by people's organizations for successfully convincing the then union government to roll out a public works programme. The global pandemic and the vulnerabilities of the migrant population in the urban spaces have highlighted the importance of this programme which has been a lifesaver for the rural communities. </div><p></p><div><div style="text-align: justify;">We are also witnessing an unenthusiastic implementation of the programme, which is unarguably one of the most impactful rights-based legislation(s) in post-Independent India. Job cardholders are being denied work, wages are getting inordinately delayed, corrupt practices creeping in without access to proper grievance redressal mechanisms, etc. The union budget of 2022-23 has also been disappointing with respect to the allocation for the public works programme, with the budgetary provisions failing to respond to the demand for work generated by rural households. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">On this day, we met the officials of the panchayat, block and district administrations across West Bengal and submitted a demand charter listing out our immediate concerns on the implementation of the programme. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiMVyhEeGx6bBf7D8Roxs8Jl5ICVoGvGgrkfjnsLWvKDa6xiX-JrR4Qb5kDXLeTM7clySvDEDoD8cZnlxOmHmFhnxK1IodcIjG9VaeaYd_8F2c_NAQA0oGruieE5ZQs-R87eio9JQ6F547KTw3bepSTB36tuEBaK4vtwO6xYZVay4nV6Jre_KwLPkH2UQ=s1040" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1040" data-original-width="780" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiMVyhEeGx6bBf7D8Roxs8Jl5ICVoGvGgrkfjnsLWvKDa6xiX-JrR4Qb5kDXLeTM7clySvDEDoD8cZnlxOmHmFhnxK1IodcIjG9VaeaYd_8F2c_NAQA0oGruieE5ZQs-R87eio9JQ6F547KTw3bepSTB36tuEBaK4vtwO6xYZVay4nV6Jre_KwLPkH2UQ=s320" width="240" /></a></div><b><div style="text-align: center;"><b> One of our activists with the receipted copy of the demand charter after submitting it to the office of the Block Development Officer in Shantipur, Nadia</b></div></b><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The following demands have been placed before the Central and State Governments:</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>1.</b> 200 days of guaranteed wage employment for each and every individual in the rural areas.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>2.</b> Fixation of minimum daily wage at ₹600 in line with the recommendations of the 7th pay commission.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>3.</b> Disbursal of wages should be according to the laid down provisions of the law, which guarantees payment of wages within a fortnight of the completion of work.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>4.</b> No worker should not be paid less than the stipulated wages under any pretext.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>5.</b> Unemployment benefits should be disbursed in the manner stated in the law on not being provided work within a fortnight of submitting work demand applications.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>6.</b> In accordance with the provisions of the law, drinking water, shed and creche facility for children accompanying their mothers to the work sites should be made available.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>7.</b> Alternatives to earthwork should be made available, especially for women.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>8.</b> Every eligible applicant should be provided with a job card and no job card should be cancelled arbitrarily.</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>9.</b> Appropriate measures should be taken to prevent sexual harassment of women at work sites. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;" /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Deputations and demand charters have been submitted across 12 districts in West Bengal with the senior activists taking a lead role in engaging with the bureaucracy and the political leadership. </div>Khet Majoor Samityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03524584809195033100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5505873649580924202.post-38801408796515797062022-01-31T13:49:00.029+05:302022-01-31T19:48:01.432+05:30PBKMS and SMS observe 'Betrayal Day' on the call given by farmers<h3 style="text-align: center;">PBKMS and SMS submit deputations and initiate a campaign to highlight the 'betrayal' faced by the farmers of the nation in the hands of the union government </h3><p style="text-align: justify;">Paschim Banga Khet Majoor Samity (PBKMS) and Shramajivee Mahila Samity (SMS) have called for a 'Day of Condemnation' or the 'Betrayal day' as christened by the associations and trade union under the banner of the All India Kisan Sangharsh Coordination Committee (AIKSSC). The union government and the political leadership at the centre have failed to honour its promises to the farmers during the withdrawal of the year-long protests. Post rollback of the three contentious farm legislations by the union government, the protesting farmers demanded concrete steps to address their other concerns as well for which they had braved the ire of the administration and the extreme climate of North India for more than a year.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">We welcome the unconditional withdrawal of the three contentious farm legislations which began with the passing of the Farm Laws Repeal Bill, 2021 at the Lok Sabha culminating in the presidential assent provided on 1st December, 2021. However, the other demands of the nation wide peaceful struggle were not honoured by the political leadership at the centre and the farming community now nurses a sense of betrayal. Not even one of the promises made to the protesting farmers (apart from the repeal of the three farm legislations) to persuade them to vacate the protest sites has been taken up till date. This apathy dishonours one of the most impactful peasant movements of the recent times. We have not seen any willingness on the part of the central government to honour its commitment on a range of promises made to address concerns of the protetsing farmers. An elected government cannot disregard the demands raised by a mass movement in this manner. We vow to continue with our struggles till each and every demand of our farmers is honoured. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">In West Bengal, especially the small and marginal farmers face difficulty in receiving the right price for their produces. There are also numerous barriers to selling paddy in large quantities, such as relatively distant markets, undefined pricing, the complexity of selling in government mandis, and so on. The present Trinamool Congress government had given moral support to the agitating peasants and now if the other vital demands of the peasants are not met, then some moral responsibility to address them lies with the political leadership of the state as well.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjazlLlZoC2HVMtmNc_YkcrmHtKi-rny_DpRE7Nsw8k0EVSEuxLOY9tI9XCVIQqb0Da7Y5d2Q0ty_sh-Xhy1tnzT0mSo-bsZ8xwB50GIivFBoohkjtgHCadYdGznDTX0TEdUzMpGDzZ_y8sYS4ax9MWJG3-mnRH2Z9JRkVTz0CEnyJ7QWZzQ1fGroBbhw=s1280" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="1280" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjazlLlZoC2HVMtmNc_YkcrmHtKi-rny_DpRE7Nsw8k0EVSEuxLOY9tI9XCVIQqb0Da7Y5d2Q0ty_sh-Xhy1tnzT0mSo-bsZ8xwB50GIivFBoohkjtgHCadYdGznDTX0TEdUzMpGDzZ_y8sYS4ax9MWJG3-mnRH2Z9JRkVTz0CEnyJ7QWZzQ1fGroBbhw=s320" width="320" /></a></div><b><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Senior activists of PBKMS addressing a press conference in Uttar Dinajpur</b></div></b><p style="text-align: justify;">On this day, we are submitting demand charters in the form of deputations to the panchayat, block and district administrations in our field areas which are spread across West Bengal.

A small team led by our senior activist and treasurer, Comrade Kanai Halder visited a few villages in the Mohammadbazar block to interact with the community members who face the threat of eviction. Our visit was facilitated by one of the civil society organizations in the region named PAPA (Project Affected People's Association) which is working amongst the tribal community. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjrsFEN-QkEjnVKk9q2ISfRp2QJU8Rc2GiJmA3NEePUm_N38Pu-G0zSeoNEQr3eCfjqRdui3FW-2-gGx7Ok0go-RXZJwp6nlA4Y6lAxoBceVM_ie9L6WUaD2O0KAuhuSf-Ye4JqTi6c3RmGne7MrPPLcqX7D2a2Diy3lx7srOtW3RuD9qcYnuwL1vHAgA=s1280" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="960" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjrsFEN-QkEjnVKk9q2ISfRp2QJU8Rc2GiJmA3NEePUm_N38Pu-G0zSeoNEQr3eCfjqRdui3FW-2-gGx7Ok0go-RXZJwp6nlA4Y6lAxoBceVM_ie9L6WUaD2O0KAuhuSf-Ye4JqTi6c3RmGne7MrPPLcqX7D2a2Diy3lx7srOtW3RuD9qcYnuwL1vHAgA=s320" width="240" /></a></div><b>Com. Kanai Halder interacting with the residents<br /></b><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">14 villages will be severely affected post commencement of the coal mining project. We came to know of a protest march, in which the community members displayed brooms, symbolizing their desire of chasing away the 'dikus' (outsiders) who are eyeing the natural resources of the area. The march was held by the residents of the Dewanganj village and the police administration immediately cracked down on them with the temporary detention of a local community mobilizer. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The population density of the area is less with the number of households in a village seldom crossing twenty-five. This is mainly due to the topography of the area, marked by jungles and hillocks. The implementation of rights-based legislation(s) in the area is poor, to say the least. Villagers do not have access to the public works programme, which guarantees a minimum of 100 days of paid work to each and every rural household in the country. Many households have stopped receiving their entitled food grains through the Public Distribution System. Anganwadi centres are not functioning properly and other schemes like mission Nirmal Bangla, Bangla Awas Yojana, etc are also not being implemented in their true spirits. Without paying a hefty kickback, the central schemes are also not made accessible to the people. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">A certain fear has crept into the minds of the villagers in accessing benefits of state-sponsored schemes for they feel that on the pretext of filling up of forms, the administration will manipulate them to part with their homestead and agricultural land(s). For similar reasons, we have been prevented from taking photographs or even writing field notes in some areas. The suspicion on the administration has grown to such an extent! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The electricity connection is not too stable and often villages go without electricity for a long period of time. The villages of Gabarbathan and Sagarbandi are yet to receive electricity connections. Some of the villages have electric poles but the households have not been reached with proper connections. Notable amongst them are Harisingh, Talbandh, Khetpahari and Baromesya. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The residents of the region mainly communicate in Alchiki, Oraon and Santali languages. We have worked in Birbhum briefly from 1994-96 and Com. Akal Mandi from this region was even an active member of our then state committee. In the anchals of Dewanganj and Hinglo, we met people who are not in favour of the coal mine being commissioned but have also come across a section of the community who feel that the mine project will benefit them economically. Though, the people do not trust the committee formed by the administration to do full justice to their legitimate claims. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">A significant number of the residents are not keen to give up their homestead and agricultural lands for the sake of a coal mine. The landless population are in favour of evaluating the full compensation package before taking a final decision. Representatives of mainstream political parties often visit the villages which have been proposed to be included in the coal mine project with the objective of mobilizing people to further the aspirations of the concerned political party. The people have experienced that such interactions do not benefit them in any manner and expose them to harassment meted out by the administration who are always on their toes to snuff out any opposition to their unilateral decisions. People from the anchals of Dewanganj and Sagarbandi are leading the protests against the administration which attempts to complete the land acquisition soon. The cadres of the ruling political party in the state are also not being allowed in these areas. Community mobilizers are planning to hold a meeting with the heads of the fourteen villages to chalk out a joint resistance strategy, involving democratic means of protests. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">PBKMS will also plan the nature of its intervention in association with the affected communities. Birbhum and particularly the villages which are falling under the area of the proposed coal mine happened to be our field area in the mid-90s. We plan to strengthen our organization over there along with active participation in the movement to ensure the ownership of the tribal community over <i>jal, jangal and jamin</i>. The administration has virtually halted all the projects pertaining to the development of social infrastructure with the hope of tiring out the communities in accessing public goods as well as basic necessities. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">All the conversations took place in the Alchiki language and we are thankful to our <i>sathi</i> Com. Somnath Baske, for helping us in having multiple conversations with the native speakers. The report has been prepared after translating the main subjects of the conversations into Bengali and noting them down during our return journey to Kolkata. </div></div></div></div></div>Khet Majoor Samityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03524584809195033100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5505873649580924202.post-1507612054846670322022-01-06T23:56:00.015+05:302022-01-07T07:30:36.952+05:30Annual Review Meeting of PBKMS<h3 style="text-align: left;">PBKMS concludes a two-day annual review meeting at Badu training centre</h3><div style="text-align: justify;">PBKMS (Paschim Banga Khet Majoor Samity) conducted an annual review meeting with the activists presenting their progress reports and core activities undertaken by the respective district unit. The final membership figures from the block units and the subscription amount collected from each of the district units were collated to arrive at the consolidated membership figure of the union. Reporting systems were reviewed and a common form was proposed to include all the indicators for ease in handling of data. The union also undertook an evaluation of the work of the full-time activists and the district committees. Plans for three consecutive years were laid down and internal fund collection was stressed upon. Crowdfunding initiatives and the collection of food grains from field areas have been discussed. A special membership with higher subscription fees amongst the working middle class will be explored. A one-time special donation from workers of the public works programme will also be taken up to shore up the internal funds. Emphasis has been laid on generating resources to ensure that the union becomes sustainable on internal collection to support a rapid expansion of field areas, which will also entail supporting a larger number of full-time activists. Gradual increase in the subscription amount of members was proposed by the district coordinators with projections of increase in membership figures till 2024. A quarterly progress plan along with targets of the individual districts will be prepared by the secretariat after the respective coordinators conduct a round of consultation with the block and anchal committees. </div><div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-mDEZhillC5o/Ydc0D2adeUI/AAAAAAAADqk/bjGbL8WBKwEYgitXEWFx1vWbEUBWCkjRACNcBGAsYHQ/WhatsApp%2BImage%2B2022-01-06%2Bat%2B13.02.05.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="1280" height="240" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-mDEZhillC5o/Ydc0D2adeUI/AAAAAAAADqk/bjGbL8WBKwEYgitXEWFx1vWbEUBWCkjRACNcBGAsYHQ/WhatsApp%2BImage%2B2022-01-06%2Bat%2B13.02.05.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Review meeting in progress at Badu, Kolkata</b></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-BCmdywSESfw/Ydc0DMrLKFI/AAAAAAAADqg/9zuUj-wD_YIqkD92ZSPC3sUyx0-ltknVQCNcBGAsYHQ/WhatsApp%2BImage%2B2022-01-06%2Bat%2B13.02.08.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="1280" height="240" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-BCmdywSESfw/Ydc0DMrLKFI/AAAAAAAADqg/9zuUj-wD_YIqkD92ZSPC3sUyx0-ltknVQCNcBGAsYHQ/WhatsApp%2BImage%2B2022-01-06%2Bat%2B13.02.08.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><b><div style="text-align: center;"><b>District plans being presented at the convention centre </b></div></b></div><p style="text-align: justify;">The plan of the union to support rural youths for one year to immerse them in organizing work has also been finalized which will aid us in identifying potential activists in the near future.

The schedule of the annual convention of the union and the nature of the selection of delegates along with other logistical details were conveyed to the participating activists by the organizing committee. </p>Khet Majoor Samityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03524584809195033100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5505873649580924202.post-31133095872394121282021-12-22T23:29:00.034+05:302021-12-24T00:39:07.610+05:30Legal Awareness workshops conducted in association with MASUM and others <h3 style="text-align: center;">PBKMS organizes workshops post increase in jurisdiction of the BSF in three states in association with civil society partners</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">Paschim Banga Khet Majoor Samity (PBKMS) in association with MASUM (Banglar Manabadhikar Suraksha Mancha), RTFWN (Right to Food and Work Network) and other civil society partners organizes a series of workshops, interactive sessions and awareness camps on rights guaranteed by the Indian constitution and legal safeguards provided by the justice delivery system. The need to have such a series of engagements was felt after the recent increase in the operational jurisdiction of the Border Security Force (BSF) was flagged by the civil society as a regressive step in furthering the civil and political rights of citizens. The Ministry of Home Affairs has taken a unilateral decision to increase the jurisdiction of BSF from 15 kilometres to 50 kilometres (from the International border towards the Indian territory) in the states of Punjab, Assam and West Bengal. </p><p style="text-align: justify;">The experience of the populace residing in the areas close to the International boundary with Bangladesh points to the severe restrictions imposed by the BSF which often interferes with the provisions of article 19 of the Indian constitution, guaranteeing certain fundamental rights to the citizens of the nation. The constant presence of 'men in uniform' in villages, which are in no way threatened by any foreign nation in close proximity, limit the access to women to public spaces and may have a negative impact on the psychology of children. The paramilitary force in the areas close to the International boundary with Bangladesh often stands guard deep within Indian territory with reports of increasing interference in livelihood activities and free movement of the populace. Even cases of torture, sexual harassment, enforced disappearances and custodial deaths have been repeatedly highlighted by human rights networks and complainants had to face hurdles in even registering their grievances against the BSF. Hence, the existing experience of the local people raises apprehensions on further curtailment of civil rights after the increase in their jurisdiction. The force has also powers of initiating arrest, search and seizure in their operation areas which draws them into a turf war with the state police force. Apprehensions of high handedness and unreasonable use of such powers have given way to a certain anxiousness amongst the people residing within the present jurisdiction with limited grievance redressal mechanisms in place.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Crucial judgements in the context of the numerous provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) and rights of citizens during lodging of a complaint with the police department have been discussed in the workshops. The need to be vocal in upholding the rights of fellow citizens and the importance of active community involvement have also been stressed to build a democratic resistance against any measures towards curtailment of the rights of people. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-vMeWXaIif-k/YcQaFmLr5WI/AAAAAAAADpQ/n7znsRd3A1I1zqmGh4PQYqG590XdaROJgCNcBGAsYHQ/1.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="892" data-original-width="1274" height="224" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-vMeWXaIif-k/YcQaFmLr5WI/AAAAAAAADpQ/n7znsRd3A1I1zqmGh4PQYqG590XdaROJgCNcBGAsYHQ/1.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><b><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Shri Sujoy Singh Roy from MASUM conducting a session in Raninagar-1 block, Murshidabad</b> </div></b><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-dIy0zMSc308/YcQaLZBzn7I/AAAAAAAADpU/x4mRdYNpjwUSg6V6J9Txk8lVUA00e3jAwCNcBGAsYHQ/2.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="1280" height="240" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-dIy0zMSc308/YcQaLZBzn7I/AAAAAAAADpU/x4mRdYNpjwUSg6V6J9Txk8lVUA00e3jAwCNcBGAsYHQ/2.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><b><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Com.

Society organizations submit deputations at regional centres of the BSF in West
Bengal to protest against the unilateral decision of the union home ministry to
increase the jurisdiction of the paramilitary force</span></b></h3>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 150%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">On the occasion
of the 57<sup>th</sup> Raising Day of the BSF (Border Security Force), PBKMS
(Paschim Banga Khet Majoor Samity) and numerous civil society partners
submitted deputations under the banner ‘<i>Amra
Simantabasi</i>’ (We the border people) at their regional centres in districts
across West Bengal. In Kolkata, we took out a protest march from Minto Park
which culminated at the paramilitary force’s Eastern Command headquarters with
the submission of a deputation to the commanding officer. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 150%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">The union
ministry on 11<sup>th</sup> October, 2021 brought out a notification
proclaiming an amendment of a 2014 notification to extend the jurisdiction of the
BSF to 50 kilometres inside Indian territory from the international border in
Punjab, West Bengal and Assam. The paramilitary force will now be able to
conduct search, seizure and arrest up to 50 kilometres inside Indian territory
which will be similar to the imposition of martial law on a large number of residents.
We condemn the unilateral decision of the central government to infringe upon
the subject of law and order which is an exclusive domain of the state
government. The political leadership also did not feel the need to initiate a
dialogue with the opposition as well as the civil society to discuss the need
for bringing out the notification.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

residing at the border areas have also complained about the high handedness of
the stationed BSF personnel time and again and civil society groups have brought
out shocking incidents of violation of human rights ranging from illegal
detention to torture and violation of the dignity of women. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 150%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">We have stated

BSF officials:</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;"></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", "serif"; text-indent: -18pt;">The paramilitary force should remain at the International

paramilitary force should be impartially probed.</span></li></ul><ul><li>As ordered by the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India in
the Anuradha Bhasin case, section 144 should cease to be continuously in force
in the border areas.</li></ul><ul><li>The notification of the union home ministry on the
increase in jurisdiction of the paramilitary force should be revoked
immediately.</li></ul><ul><li>Often the lands and ponds of the farming community
fall on the other side of the barbed wires. They should be allowed access to
them from 06:00 hours to 18:00 hours. </li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>The paramilitary force should adhere to its
constitutional limits and uphold the fundamental rights of the population
residing at the border areas, especially the provisions of Article 14 (Right to

(Right to life).</li></ul><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><p></p><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2F-3O8r3pdk/YaebxWqTXyI/AAAAAAAADoE/lqvQ5CHTVL46xAHiI4UTsQeFGdzB6_wZQCLcBGAsYHQ/s1032/Near%2Bthe%2BBSF%2BCamp%2BOffice%2Bin%2BNadia%2Bafter%2Bsubmission%2Bof%2Bdeputation.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="774" data-original-width="1032" height="241" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2F-3O8r3pdk/YaebxWqTXyI/AAAAAAAADoE/lqvQ5CHTVL46xAHiI4UTsQeFGdzB6_wZQCLcBGAsYHQ/w292-h241/Near%2Bthe%2BBSF%2BCamp%2BOffice%2Bin%2BNadia%2Bafter%2Bsubmission%2Bof%2Bdeputation.jpeg" width="292" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><b>After submission of the deputation in Nadia</b></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GWQvzuctp5c/Yaeb8oVeHZI/AAAAAAAADoI/YZe37knsCusjtdRKFtciqi34aFGZq5YJgCLcBGAsYHQ/s1040/Preparation%2Bfor%2Ba%2Broadshow%2Bbefore%2Bsubmission%2Bof%2Bdeputation%2Bin%2BKolutala%2BBSF%2BCamp%252C%2BNorth%2B24%2BParganas.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="780" data-original-width="1040" height="242" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GWQvzuctp5c/Yaeb8oVeHZI/AAAAAAAADoI/YZe37knsCusjtdRKFtciqi34aFGZq5YJgCLcBGAsYHQ/w301-h242/Preparation%2Bfor%2Ba%2Broadshow%2Bbefore%2Bsubmission%2Bof%2Bdeputation%2Bin%2BKolutala%2BBSF%2BCamp%252C%2BNorth%2B24%2BParganas.jpg" width="301" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><b>Members before a procession to the main camp of BSF in North 24 Parganas<br /></b></td></tr></tbody></table></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">We are also organizing workshops and awareness camps

The scant regard for the opposing views on the provisions of the legislation has led to their ratification without proper debates and discussions in both houses of the parliament. The definite tilt of the legislations towards corporatization of the Indian agriculture sector spells doom for the small and marginal farmers. A calculated omission of the minimum support price mechanism along with the intention of dismantling the Agricultural Produce Market Committee(s) exposes the vulnerable agricultural households to fluctuating market prices. </span><span>Contract farming provisions disregard the in-equal power relations between a small farmer and a corporate entity which may often result in exploitation of the former due to virtually non-existent monitoring mechanisms. The impact on food security will also be massive with the farm legislations foretelling the gradual retreat of the state from ensuring food security of the nation through the public distribution system. The latest amendments carried out in the Essential Commodities Act, 1955 removes the restrictions on stocking of certain essential commodities which may certainly lead to hoarding and increase in retail prices of such commodities with a direct impact on the food basket of vulnerable households. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-T_Jqh4HPFzw/YVH3SVxylAI/AAAAAAAADkM/RicnWG2a8KwSwh1mWfl3RgSVdl_tJ4HywCLcBGAsYHQ/s1032/WhatsApp%2BImage%2B2021-09-27%2Bat%2B2.35.44%2BPM.jpeg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="581" data-original-width="1032" height="225" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-T_Jqh4HPFzw/YVH3SVxylAI/AAAAAAAADkM/RicnWG2a8KwSwh1mWfl3RgSVdl_tJ4HywCLcBGAsYHQ/w400-h225/WhatsApp%2BImage%2B2021-09-27%2Bat%2B2.35.44%2BPM.jpeg" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><br /></td></tr></tbody></table><div style="text-align: right;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Ki1rpdCdGqY/YVH3SQPbBFI/AAAAAAAADkI/6t2ZB5w-MGIqCaFBllgVRr38YzhqY3W0QCLcBGAsYHQ/s1040/WhatsApp%2BImage%2B2021-09-26%2Bat%2B6.35.39%2BPM.jpeg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1040" data-original-width="468" height="200" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Ki1rpdCdGqY/YVH3SQPbBFI/AAAAAAAADkI/6t2ZB5w-MGIqCaFBllgVRr38YzhqY3W0QCLcBGAsYHQ/w137-h200/WhatsApp%2BImage%2B2021-09-26%2Bat%2B6.35.39%2BPM.jpeg" width="137" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span>Hence, on comprehending the ‘pro-corporate bias in the recently ratified farm legislations we have begun our struggle against their forceful imposition without taking into consideration the concerns raised by our farmers.

The block and district units hoisted the national flag and speeches on the significance of the day were delivered by our senior activists. We are in the middle of an ongoing national campaign demanding the rollback of draconian sedition and anti-terror laws while reiterating the constitutional framework guaranteeing freedom of speech and expression of citizens. The campaign was launched just after the denial of bail to the late Jesuit priest and activist Fr Stan Swamy which led to his untimely death. 'Right to Dissent' has been the campaign's theme, which is leading a dialogue amongst fellow citizens on state-led repression of dissenting voices and penchant to frame dissenters under sedition and terror laws, denying them the right to seek redressal under usual provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Qu5zdfMvyCQ/YRlj3nhVf1I/AAAAAAAADik/qxt5S5FRbSc6I2W1JOG2TXA8ddLV96VnACLcBGAsYHQ/s1280/WhatsApp%2BImage%2B2021-08-15%2Bat%2B9.59.10%2BAM.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="1280" height="360" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Qu5zdfMvyCQ/YRlj3nhVf1I/AAAAAAAADik/qxt5S5FRbSc6I2W1JOG2TXA8ddLV96VnACLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h360/WhatsApp%2BImage%2B2021-08-15%2Bat%2B9.59.10%2BAM.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><p>Our block and district units read out 'pledge' declaring our unflinching commitment towards the values espoused by the constitution of our nation and working towards establishing a society based on them. The need to protect the 'dissenting voices' and to collectively oppose the state policies discouraging dissent in any form featured in the pledge. The preamble of the constitution was also readout. On every Independence Day, we highlight the need to ensure access to basic citizen services and upholding the 'right to life of every individual through nutrition, health, education, shelter and work. Last year we began a dialogue on the need for a robust Public Distribution System to address hunger and lack of access to basic food items for vulnerable sections of the society on Independence Day and highlighted the inadequacies of the present system. This year too, we gave a call to increase the entitlement of ration cardholders and to universalize the Public Distribution System for the nation's working-class should not celebrate another Independence Day on an empty stomach. Paschim Banga Khet Majoor Samity is committed to joining the progressive forces to ensure an equitable future for each citizen of India and express solidarity to the people's movements across the nation, asserting the rights of the marginalized sections over natural resources and access to constitutional rights.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KwOEpXJcuNw/YRlkJHF7DII/AAAAAAAADis/P_zeDuJauAQYLeSBBLL-ug1c-IFGiXlPACLcBGAsYHQ/s1280/Slide1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="720" data-original-width="1280" height="360" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KwOEpXJcuNw/YRlkJHF7DII/AAAAAAAADis/P_zeDuJauAQYLeSBBLL-ug1c-IFGiXlPACLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h360/Slide1.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>Khet Majoor Samityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03524584809195033100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5505873649580924202.post-41647719189009959752021-08-13T00:24:00.003+05:302021-08-13T00:27:11.788+05:30 Livelihood Report - 2020 to 2021<p><b>Introduction </b></p><p>The sudden collapse of the market due to the pandemic made the unpredictability and instability of the market very evident.

At the same time, there was scarcity as well as a surge in the price of vegetables. We initiated our plan to help marginal farmers and rural families who own only small homesteads, focusing mainly on the women in such families. We worked with families that have very small plots of land, to start a kitchen garden - which can significantly improve the nutritional content of the families’ food. We have ensured that there are negligible expenses and zero requirements to go to the market for anything produced in the kitchen gardens. Training to make organic fertilisers and pesticides from natural sources, livestock and kitchen waste has also been provided.</p><p>We are also successful in involving a large number of youth in various activities, training and meetings of the organisation. Young men and women were given training to be trainers, thus giving them the confidence to lead a small group of people for the organic kitchen garden initiatives.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yWXYkex923o/YRVtNHoTC7I/AAAAAAAADho/ACG3N1jjQpcchs-PnsarLITV25490iA2wCLcBGAsYHQ/s591/Capturess.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="290" data-original-width="591" height="314" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-yWXYkex923o/YRVtNHoTC7I/AAAAAAAADho/ACG3N1jjQpcchs-PnsarLITV25490iA2wCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h314/Capturess.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><p><b>Activities</b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 36.0pt; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 12.0pt; margin: 12pt 0cm 12pt 36pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-align: justify; text-indent: -18pt;"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">●<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 7pt; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal;"> </span></span><!--[endif]--><b><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 150%; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Training to start organic kitchen gardens<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p>

The forest department in utter disregard for the legal safeguards enjoyed by the community residing in Jamniya village (Khadwa District, Madhya Pradesh) encroached upon their lands and destroyed their shelters, standing crops and cattle. The Khadwa district administration has also not taken any measures to address the periodic harassment meted out to the forest-dwelling communities by the forest administration despite existing legal provisions acknowledging their customary rights over forest resources.</span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Jagrit Adivasi Dalit Sangathan (JADS), the leading tribal and dalit rights collective intervened and made attempts to protect the interests of the families who were facing the wrath of the forest administration. The District Forest Officer did not acknowledge that the interests of the concerned community are protected by the law of the land till the completion of the verification of their claims over forest lands as per the provisions of the FRA, 2006. The fact that the Madhya Pradesh High Court had passed a stay order in an ongoing petition filed by the members of forest-dwelling communities in Jamniya claiming individual and community forest rights, too was disregarded. The Jabalpur bench of the Madhya Pradesh High Court has also passed an order restraining the state from evicting any individual during the present pandemic situation which was clearly violated as well. Hence in complete defiance of the legal protection accorded to the tribal community, the forest department not only trespassed on their property with criminal intention but also took a twelve year old girl named Puja and her parents along with other members of the community into their custody for protesting against their illegal acts.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The activists of JADS along with the community leaders vehemently protested against the high-handedness of the forest officials and tried to secure the release of the detained persons. Much to the horror of the protestors, the forest officials decided to target the activists of JADS and forcefully took away Nitin bhai, Ramesh bhai and Ratan bhai into their custody. The forest department has no legal right to enforce detentions and has acted in complete violation of the constitutional provisions in detaining the three activists and confining them to the room of the Forest Ranger without any access to legal help. A non-responsive administration finally relented on witnessing a midnight ‘sit-in’ protest led by adivasi women in front of the office of the Superintendent of Police, Khandwa. The 8 people from the community who had been illegally confined in the forest ranger’s office along with Nitin bhai, Ramesh bhai and Mahesh bhai then were released today. The forest administration is yet to hand over the phones of the three activists of JADS and threatened to charge Nitin bhai with false allegations under the Wildlife Act, having non-bailable provisions. Only for standing up to the might of the forest administration in a district of Independent India displaying colonial disdain towards ‘adivasis’ and traditional forest dwellers, a people’s association has to face such systemic harassment. Shame on the Shivraj Singh Chouhan led Madhya Pradesh Government!</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">45 adivasi families have been looted of their meagre belongings with their homestead lands resembling a battlefield marked by the destruction of standing crops and killing of farm animals. A six year old boy named Mahendra is still missing after the trespassing of the forest department and he has not been traced till the time of circulation of this note.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">We demand strict action against the erring officials who have violated even the principles of natural justice with impunity, witnessed in the conduct of only outlawed groups and associations. We also demand a public apology from the office of Hon’ble Minister in charge of Forests, Govt. of Madhya Pradesh and adequate compensation to the families whose shelters, standing crops and cattle have been destroyed. The district administration should assure the community of protection against harassment and illegal trespass of forest officials on their lands and immediate compliance with the provisions of the FRA, 2006.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">PBKMS stands in complete solidarity with the activists of JADS and the community of forest dwellers who have displayed tremendous courage and determination to challenge the hegemonic grip of the district forest administration over natural resources.

the future of the workers of 17 gardens owned by Duncans is now in doldrums.
Workers have been worried about their dues and whether they will ever receive
their due wages, fringe benefits, gratuity and provident fund.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span lang="EN" style="line-height: 115%;">Responding to the workers’ concern, </span><span lang="EN" style="line-height: 115%;">Paschim Banga Khet Majoor
Samity (PBKMS) has supported workers 54250 workers to file a claim of Rs.1538,76,90,240
from nine Duncans Industries Limited gardens in Alipurduar and Jalpaiguri. The
claim includes arrear wages, over-time, extra leaf payment, rations, fuel wood,
gratuity and provident fund.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span lang="EN" style="line-height: 115%;">While </span><span lang="EN" style="line-height: 115%;">Paschim Banga Khet Majoor Samity (PBKMS) has already filed a
case in Supreme Court for the dues of 29 gardens including 7 former Duncans
gardens,on making enquiries,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>we found
that the Duncans Industries Limited has gone into bankruptcy. The Corporate
Insolvency Resolution Process was started against them on 05th March, 2020 in
the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT). By this process, all creditors of the
company are to file their claims and the NCLT will approve a plan by which the
amounts owed to them will be paid back, either by liquidating Duncans’ assets
or by finding a new owner.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: medium;">PBKMS took the matter on urgent basis and made the
workers aware of the Resolution Process against the Duncans Industries Limited.
One PBKMS member then filed a claim with the Resolution Professional (RP)
appointed by the NCLT on behalf of 124 workers in April 2021. The RP rejected
the claims stating that the workers are late in filing their claims. The
workers then approached the NCLT Kolkata bench, who accepted their plea and directed
the RP to accept the claims. On 15th June 2021, the Court has directed the
workers to submit their claims with appropriate documents to the Resolution
Professional by 30th June 2021. Now claims have been submitted for 54, 250
workers on the basis of list of workers provided to PBKMS by the Provident Fund
Commissioner’s office at Jalpaiguri.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN" style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The gardens for which claims have been filed are
Lankapara, Gairganda, Hantapara, Dumchipara, Tulsipara and Birpara in Alipur
Duar District. In Jalpaiguri, claims have been filed for Nageswari, Killcote
and Bagracote.</span><span style="font-size: 13pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>Khet Majoor Samityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03524584809195033100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5505873649580924202.post-12003213714542770052021-06-21T02:22:00.038+05:302021-07-09T19:56:46.140+05:30Relief work in South and North 24 Parganas after Cyclone Yaas<div class="separator"></div><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #050505; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">May 26, 2021, saw another addition to the list of violent cyclones in the Sundarbans. The entire Sundarbans, including the coastal areas of East Midnapore, South 24 Parganas and North 24 Parganas, was again devastated by the landfall on the Orissa coast. While the exact amount of damage can never be known; agriculture, fish farming, animal husbandry, trade and commerce have all been affected. Around 10 lakh people had to be brought to safe shelters. </span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.656; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="border: none; clear: left; display: inline-block; float: left; height: 320px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; overflow: hidden; width: 240px;"><img height="320" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/uTnbtAUVoV0K2HBiJSLeGu9aOV9M4-RvGE5Yj-qls9yOtYmhoWppd22kJGtdTPQgffjyddjBie8AYCXqAToLKUfWY8iCJILehuM9O3bO-J7FccJB6PzrS9l7CxwpvCCf5rBHXt8" style="margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px;" width="240" /></span><span style="color: #050505; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">According to various sources, the impact of cyclone Yaas in various areas and villages in South 24 Parganas and North 24 Parganas districts caused dangerous damage to the property, as seawater had dangerously swelled and dams in various places collapsed. Various villages were completely inundated by the floods. Mud houses of many people in the village were destroyed by the storm or by the tidal wave, forcing villagers to take shelter in the flood centres. As the tide rose, the river overflowed in different villages and whole villages were submerged. For a while, there was nothing left to help the helpless people. Crops grown in the field got flooded with saltwater, leaving them very worried about their immediate future.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.656; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-top: 12pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #050505; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">After the landfall, PBKMS rushed to provide relief and assist speedy rehabilitation, in the Sundarbans.

Despite showing several symptoms, people are reluctant to visit the local health centres or get tested due to widespread misinformation and a general fear of the disease and the rising death rate. Further, the rural healthcare system is grossly underprepared for this crisis</span></p>

The struggle which began in 1988 with the enforcement of an eight hour work day for agricultural workers in the district of South 24 Parganas continues even today in upholding the constitutional rights of the unorganized sector workers within the farm and non farm sectors of the economy. PBKMS has been at the forefront whether in advocating for implementation of the provisions of MGNREGA, 2005 in its true spirits or for mobilizing plantation workers to struggle for the realization of their pending wages from unscrupulous tea garden owners. The systemic apathy of the state amidst a raging pandemic and rising inequality in the society points towards the relevance of May Day in the present times. The day gives us renewed hope and instills belief in the power of collective strength of the working class to march forward in our demand for an equal world order watering the dreams of a 'classless society'.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">With strict adherence to social distancing norms and state government guidelines on gatherings, we have observed the sacred day across our field areas. Calls of 'Workers of the world unite' have reverberated through the morning air challenging the hegemonic grip of the bourgeois class over community resources. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Gardens in the Doars have been ruined since the crisis
in 2003-04 by theft. The sufferers have been ordinary workers – the women
pluckers and their children who survive on the green leaves alone. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The latest accusation of theft has been made against
the 1300 workers of Jateswar Division of Birpara Tea Garden. But we would like
to raise the question - Who is the thief in this case?</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Birpara tea garden was abandoned in 2015, to be
re-opened in 2017<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>and then again
abandoned by the Duncans Industries Ltd. In September 2019, 1300 workers of
Jateshwar Division of Birpara garden made a collective of their own to run 405
acres of the garden.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Since then, the
workers have received Rs. 10 per kg for plucking leaves, earning Rs 250-300 per
day during the season. The collective started saving successfully right from
September 2019. Each received an average of Rs. 11,280 as bonus from the
surplus savings on October 7,2020. They have also received money for their paid
leave (“saal chutti”) during the off season. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Workers feel the past year has been better for them
than even when Duncans was managing the garden.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The workers are also convinced that while employers may come and go ,
workers would be dependent on the tea bushes for generations to come . Hence it
was their responsibility to maintain and safeguard these bushes, shade trees
and other garden properties. It is these responsible workers who have been
called thieves.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The accusation of theft has its origins in an illegal
opening agreement. On 12<sup>th</sup> February trade union leaders of 4-5 major
trade unions signed an agreement with Merico Agro Industries Limited to re-open
the garden on 16<sup>th</sup> February 2021. No Government official or Duncans
representative has signed this agreement.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The Jateswar workers claim this re-opening is illegal
and they will be cheated by this so-called management. This contention is based
on the following :-<o:p></o:p></span></p>

2016) dated 29<sup>th</sup> September 2016, the Duncans Industries Limited
are not allowed to sell the garden to any other owner. They are to run the
garden themselves and return dues to workers. <o:p></o:p></span></li>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">We have seen the theft in gardens where whole
buildings have been reduced to the ground, with every brick, rod and stone
being stolen. We have seen a timber mafia that flourishes with the illegal
cutting of shade trees in closed and open gardens, where management colluded
with the mafia to make a quick buck at the cost of the employer who is in
faraway Kolkata or Siliguri. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The largest theft has been by employers who have
abandoned gardens without paying workers’ dues . Paschim Banga Khet Majoor is
at present fighting a case in the Supreme Court for 29 such gardens where the
total dues that employers have not paid amount to over Rs.350 crores. There has
been theft in Gratuity, where under the Labour office in Birpara alone at least
8-10,000 workers have not been paid gratuity even though they have retired 10
to 15 years ago. Even after the direction and order of the Assistant Labour
Commissioner, the management has denied to pay the gratuity money to the
workers. Garden management<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>also steals,
deducting provident funds from workers but not depositing their share or the
employees' share. Desperate workers agree to illegal and invalid opening
agreements, where their leaders sign away all their dues and agree to payment
of only daily wages for the reopening of a garden.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

who are trying to prevent the loot of their garden by an illegal owner, let us
all work together to rid the gardens of the thieves who steal our gratuity and

our dues and our assets without caring about our children and our survival.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

The magistrate, ACJM 2, in Alipurduar Court expressed doubts about the legality of Merico’s ownership of the garden. She was hearing the bail petition of Parmeswar Oraon and Sagar Munda, two workers of the Jateswar division in Birpara Case No 47/2021, where the workers have been accused of “stealing green leaf” by a Shri Prasun Chakrobroty, purportedly the manager of Merico Agro Industries Limited.</span></div></div><div class="gmail_default" style="text-align: justify;"><div class="gmail_default"><br /></div></div></div></div><div class="gmail_default" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: justify;">The arrested worker Parmeswar Oraon is the petitioner in a case filed at the Jalpaiguri circuit bench of the Calcutta High Court (case no. 751/2021), where he has questioned the validity of Merico’s ownership and has complained of police harassment. He and Sagar Munda were returning from Jalpaiguri after the first hearing of the case on the 25th when they were arrested by the Birpara police at 7.30 PM. On the same day at 3 PM their fellow worker Dinesh Sharma, who had been arrested the previous day on the same charges in Case No 25/2021, was granted bail by the same ACJM on the assurance that no further plucking of green leaf would take place. She was therefore surprised to find that another case on the very same complaint had again been filed within an hour of her giving bail. Suspecting connivance and illegality, she therefore asked the two police IOs (investigating officers) to produce documents showing that the complainant (Merico ) was actually an owner and therefore could accuse others of stealing green leaf. The IOs produced a hand written document signed by some supposed trade union leaders . She was extremely angry and told the police that they were in connivance with an illegal owner. She gave specific instructions that her order which questioned the legality of the owner should be placed in the circuit bench on the next date.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="gmail_default" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: justify;">In the circuit bench, the connivance between illegal owners , administration and vested trade unions became even clearer. Merico Agro Industries Limited did not produce any documents proving ownership. Incidentally Birpara tea garden which was earlier owned by Duncans is now being dismantled and sold under the supervision of a Resolution Professional by an order of the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) dated 5 th March 2021. (Duncans Industries Limited Vs Sangita Fiscal Services Pvt Ltd.) It was without the permission of the NCLT and the Resolution Professional that Merico took over the garden, and now has no documents to prove ownership. They keep showing an agreement with 4 trade unions, none of whom have the authority to hand over the garden to new owner. Also, on 25th March, at the High Court , 4 trade unions showed great “unity of purpose” in safe guarding the illegal owner’s interest . Cutting across party lines and in the midst of one of the most bitterly fought elections in West Bengal, unions belonging to BJP, TMC CPI (M) and an Adivasi union (PTWU) in one voice said there was no problem in the garden and they wanted the new owner.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="gmail_default" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: justify;">The Superintendent of Police, despite dharnas in the police station by Jateswar workers, arrests and police raids claimed in court that there was “total peace” in the area . As a result the judge did not give any interim relief to the workers and has asked for the case to heard again on the 19th of April.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="gmail_default" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: justify;">Birpara is a typical example of the misery of workers with gardens changing hands between fly-by-night operators. It was abandoned by the Duncans Pvt Ltd in 2015 and then temporarily opened in 2017 by Duncans , but was again abandoned in September 2019. After this, the Jateshwar Division of Birpara garden formed an informal co-operative to run the garden. 1300 workers started working on 1700 bighas or 567 acres. Since then, the workers have earned around Rs 250-300 per day during the season. The collective also started saving right from September 2019, so that it was able to give Rs 11280 to each worker as bonus on October 7,2020. They have also recently distributed money in January for the traditional paid leave (“saal chutti”) during the off season. Workers feel the past year has been better for them than even when Duncans was there. According to the workers of Jateswar division, they have put a lot of effort to turn the garden into a paying venture ,after it was deserted by Duncans. Now that it is in profitable condition a new greedy owner is wanting to take over.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="gmail_default" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; text-align: justify;">The workers are angry with the management, the unions as well as the government, and do not have any faith in the new employer who didn't even consult with them before taking this decision. They are also concerned about the legality of the ownership because despite repeated requests by the workers to the Labour Department, the police and the owner, no documents proving ownership have been shown. Nor is there any assurance about the payment of past workers’ dues, including unpaid wages, gratuity and provident fund , which according to the Tea Board stands at Rupees 6 crores and 97 lakhs . Workers of Jateswar division have decided to continue the struggle. They are now accusing Merico of theft. '<b><i>Na pati tippenge , na choron ko tipne denge'</i></b> is their slogan (we will not pluck the leaves ourselves, nor will we let thieves pluck).</div>Khet Majoor Samityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03524584809195033100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5505873649580924202.post-21247265791079800952021-02-15T23:31:00.022+05:302021-02-16T20:41:32.307+05:30Tea Garden Workers Collective Resolves To Stop Illegal Takeover<div style="text-align: left;"><div style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><h3 style="line-height: 115%;">About 1300 workers of the Jateswar Division of Birpara Tea Garden have begun a struggle to prevent the illegal and unjust takeover of their garden by Merico Agro Industries Ltd.</h3></span></div><div style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><div style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: #222222;">The workers have read from the newspapers that a meeting has been organised by the West Bengal Labour Department between trade union leaders and the management of Merico Agro Industries Ltd. They received no information of this meeting. Nor were they consulted in any way. Also present at this illegal meeting was local MLA, Manoj Tigga. On 13 February 2021, in a workers’ meeting in the garden, the tea garden workers came up with the following 3 demands:-</span></div><div style="line-height: 115%;"><ol><li><span style="color: #222222;">As per Supreme Court order, the dues which are remaining should be paid immediately before opening of garden.</span></li><li>All the Provident Fund dues which have not been paid by the management should be paid before opening of garden.</li><li>The new management should directly come to the garden and make agreement with the workers of the garden before opening the garden.</li></ol></div><div style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: #222222;">According to the Tea Board, the total dues which needs to be paid to the workers are <b>₹6,33,83,000</b> (till 2016- gratuity not included). If gratuity and interest is included this amount would be more than <b>₹10 crores</b>. The workers have been only paid an interim relief of <b>₹1,76,44,000</b> by the government of West Bengal due to a Supreme Court order. The 2623 workers of the Birpara garden have not been paid their Provident Fund dues since the last 20 years.

It was temporarily opened in 2017 by Duncans , but was again abandoned in September 2019. After this, the Jateshwar Division of Birpara garden made a collective of their own to run the garden. 1300 workers started working on 405 acres. Since then, the workers have received ₹10 per kg for plucking leaves. Thus, many workers were able to earn around ₹250-300 per day during the season. The collective started saving right from September 2019 and has now successfully saved so much by selling green leaves that each tea garden worker of Birpara Jateshwar division received <b>₹11280</b> as bonus from the surplus savings on October 7,2020. They have also recently received money for their paid leave (“saal chutti”) during the off season.

On 20 September 2016, in a case filed by Duncans Industries Limited (MAT 562 of 2016), the High Court gave <b>an interim order that states as follows</b>:-</span></div><div style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: #222222;"><i>In that view of the matter, subject to result of the appeals, the following interim arrangement has been made by us after hearing the learned advocates for the parties:– (a) the appellants-writ petitioners shall take over management of all the seven tea gardens; (b) the appellants-writ petitioners shall pay both the current and arrear dues of the workers; (c) the appellants-writ petitioners shall run the gardens in a prudent businessman like manner; and (d) the appellants-writ petitioners shall keep the Tea Board informed by fortnightly returns as to the steps taken by them. It is clarified that the interim order has been passed only for the purpose of improving the lot of the workers as also that of the gardens.

They are to run the gardens and return dues to workers.There is also a Supreme Court order (CONMT.PET.(C) No. 16/2012 In W.P.(C) No. 365/2006), in which the Supreme Court had ordered that workers in over 50 closed and abandoned tea gardens (including the 7 Duncans gardens) in 4 states to receive all their dues, including Provident Fund and gratuity.

Authorities have not hesitated to vilify the popular movement of the working class led by farmers against the blatant attempt to expose our food security to the whims of the apathetic market. Coordinated efforts were made to sabotage the farmer's movement and twist the narrative to enable the central government to use force in vacating the protest sites. With concrete barriers, spiked nails, concertina wires and arrangements to use water cannons, tear gas shells and other seemingly non-lethal weapons the Delhi Police is painting a grim picture of a democracy which once took pride in the slogan of 'Jai Jawan, Jai Kisan'.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Our members have enforced road blockades in our field areas spread across West Bengal to express our solidarity with our protesting farmers whose right to dissent is being infringed upon by the political leadership.

The historical rights based legislation was enacted due to the organized struggle of our union and our allies across the nation to highlight the importance of 'right to work' to effectively establish the 'right to life' as enshrined in our constitution under article 21. A long struggle spanning 19 years mobilized the rural working class to successfully demand a rights based legislation guaranteeing work for adult members of a household. The cycle rally led by our activists from West Bengal to Delhi marked a decisive phase in the struggle to convince the state of the popular support behind the struggle. The 15th NREGA day was observed by our district units against the backdrop of rising demand for NREGA work in the aftermath of the pandemic and the systemic denial of work and other entitlements to workers by an apathetic bureaucracy.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">On this day, our district units have submitted memorandums to the panchayat and block offices in the respective field areas to demand the proper implementation of the landmark piece of legislation. The Purulia district unit was further able to successfully demand the immediate release of new job cards to 80 households in the Hura block after an advocacy campaign. Our members also submitted work demand applications and took out small rallies in villages to remind us of the success of people's organizations in successfully advocating for NREGA and the challenges which need to be confronted to ensure the proper implementation of the same. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GWBHwpTVcA8/YBlqaV9YHjI/AAAAAAAADFg/hqB56_62rtgkRtRuCoInSHMdZYWk3DdzwCLcBGAsYHQ/s1040/2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1040" data-original-width="780" height="260" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GWBHwpTVcA8/YBlqaV9YHjI/AAAAAAAADFg/hqB56_62rtgkRtRuCoInSHMdZYWk3DdzwCLcBGAsYHQ/w319-h260/2.jpg" width="319" /></a></div><b><div style="text-align: center;"><b>A rally taken out by our members in Chhatna block, Bankura</b></div></b><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Jv80v02ek5M/YBlqlt1EysI/AAAAAAAADFk/4oKaQJHoiv0Y3quQjT13nGDFifZ85m_qwCLcBGAsYHQ/s1040/1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="780" data-original-width="1040" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Jv80v02ek5M/YBlqlt1EysI/AAAAAAAADFk/4oKaQJHoiv0Y3quQjT13nGDFifZ85m_qwCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><b><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Our members with the PBKMS flag and charter of demands in Chhatna block, Bankura</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></div></b><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bSDesLc25i0/YBlqyQ9SQQI/AAAAAAAADFs/_OXodEBtYEgRYyxrXH9kVCT1kR-_Wd8CQCLcBGAsYHQ/s1040/3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1040" data-original-width="780" height="287" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bSDesLc25i0/YBlqyQ9SQQI/AAAAAAAADFs/_OXodEBtYEgRYyxrXH9kVCT1kR-_Wd8CQCLcBGAsYHQ/w321-h287/3.jpg" width="321" /></a></div><div style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><b>Members after submission of deputation in a panchayat in Harirampur block, South Dinajpur</b></div><div style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Despite the enactment of the MGNREGA, 2005 we are yet to witness the implementation of the same in its true spirits.

Grievances of our members were not redressed despite repeated submission of deputations and letters. The block administration has failed to honour its commitment to the people and has refused to act on the complaints submitted time and again by the whistleblowers of self help groups who had to bear the brunt of corrupt practices perpetuated by the elected committee(s) in connivance with the circle coordinator of the block. 'Sanghas' or village organizations are not following the guidelines in their transactions and the committee(s) are taking unilateral decisions without informing the members. We have written to the district administration and also to the Dept. of Panchayats and Rural Development, Govt. of West Bengal but no administrative action could be noticed to address our concerns. The women have finally decided to display their strength and resolve to the apathetic block administration and will be relentless in their efforts to ensure that justice is delivered to the scores of women who have been denied their rightful share in the decision making process(s) of these women led bodies. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bh6ACY59su4/YBHSNVZTXpI/AAAAAAAADEk/e3wGd-lAcZsgPbHf7KmDlyTifqhbhVw7wCLcBGAsYHQ/s1280/1.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="575" data-original-width="1280" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bh6ACY59su4/YBHSNVZTXpI/AAAAAAAADEk/e3wGd-lAcZsgPbHf7KmDlyTifqhbhVw7wCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/1.jpeg" width="320" /></a></div><b><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Women activists leading the demonstration in Kultuli, South 24 Parganas</b></div></b><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">We demand the assurance of accepting the following demands:</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><ul><li>Immediate elections to the 'sanghas' should be called in the gram panchayats of Bhubaneshwari, Gopalganj, Maipith and Meriganj.</li><li>Accounts of the 'sanghas' from 2016 to the present day should be made available to the SHG members and the public at large</li><li>Organizing periodic Annual General Meetings (AGMs) with proper dissemination of information concerning the venue and time of the same.</li><li>Suitable action against the circle coordinator and CSP-Bank Linkage for non adherence to guidelines and indulging in corrupt practices</li><li>Enquiry into the practice of extorting money to accept loan applications from SHG(s)</li></ul></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzihnhSy_nmFvKnxqQClVJewgGiV62_eT3BeazdSVYFDaHRSiCYDn_XAIhWhDB-hlaPEscRpEfg_qT6g311Aw' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b> Women raising slogans during the 'gherao' of the block office</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">After demonstrating for the whole day, the concerned Block Development Officer has promised a follow-up meeting on 30th January, 2021 with himself as mediator with five women from the cooperative board (whom the women accuse of corruption) and five members of SMS.</div></div>Khet Majoor Samityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03524584809195033100noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5505873649580924202.post-35429414774923108052021-01-27T23:44:00.011+05:302021-01-28T10:26:23.784+05:307th Purulia District Convention<h3 style="text-align: center;"> PBKMS Purulia unit organizes the 7th District Convention in Puncha block</h3><div style="text-align: justify;">Paschim Banga Khet Majoor Samity (PBKMS) organizes the convention of the Purulia unit in one of its oldest field areas in the district, the Puncha block under Manbazar subdivision.
