Anantapur

ANANTAPUR, DEC. 20. The eighth district congress of Communist Party of India (Marxist) will be held here on January 2 and 3 to focus on party agenda for next three years. Speaking to newspersons here today, the district secretary, G. Obulakonda Reddy, said here today that the party had taken up agitational programmes in support of different sections of society, particularly farmers and farm workers, in the last three years. He said the agitations had helped highlight and solve the problems, at least to some extent. Major agitational and welfare programmes taken up by the party during the last three years included 40-hour siege to the Collectorate and road blockade in support of farmers' problems. Besides, running gruel centres for the benefit of poorest of the poor in rural areas during the lean wage-employment periods, when the earning members migrated in search of livelihood leaving behind aged and children back home and distribution of 100 kg of rice each to 78 families of farmers who had committed suicide due to the burden of debts were also taken up among others. The 14-day programme taken up by the party last year, wherein the party cadre stayed in rural areas to study the problems from a closer view, had also helped the party understand the problems better.
The meet would chalk out strategies to counter the Congress Government in the event it failed to fulfil the promises it made before the elections, Mr. Reddy said. The State Secretariat member, Y. Venkateswar Rao, the Kurnool MLA, M.A. Gaffoor, and others would attend the meet as observers. On January 3 the party would take out a massive rally and conduct a public meeting.
