[Goanet]Remembering Bhagat Singh

[sebastian Rodrigues]

    It was on this day 23rd March 1931 that one of the leading heros of 
Indian Freedom Struggle Bhagat Singh was hanged to Death after the painful 
trial and trickery of the imperialist power that ruled and exloited India 
for over two centuries. This rememberance is besides for the general reasons 
upholding his fight against British might in a youthful blast, is also to 
remind the working class across the world that Bhagat Singh was arrested for 
demonstrating against colonial law that banned right to strike. For loyal 
acceptance of exloitation was necessity for the days of the Raj.

  While one can ponder more details about the vissitudes of Bhagat Singh's 
trial, it is astonishing to discover that free India's Supreme Court giving 
the judgement also banning workers right to strike. Well, Capital does 
require  peace; so also workers require share in the wealth that is 
generated. Then how does Indian Supreme Court's judgement evokes the 
patterns of the Colonial laws? This is the clear indication that 
neo-colonialism has began to assert it's ways at the highest levels of 
corridors of Power. Bhagat Singh continues to inspire not only the working 
class but to every one taking cudgels at the hydra of neo-colonialism. 
Bhagat Singh inspires me!
