The cowardly murder of 27 comrades, including the General Secretary Comrade Nambala Keshav Rao, ‘Basavaraj’, of the Communist Party of India (Maoist) by the Indian State on May 21, 2025, in Narayanpur, the bordering area of Chhattisgarh and Telangana States, has outraged our party. We strongly condemn this fascist act of the Modi government and offer our emotional homage and proletarian internationalist salute to Comrade Basavaraj and other comrades, who attained martyrdom in this murder. Also, our party strongly condemns the extremely intolerant and fascist statement that “our government is committed to eliminating the menace of Maoism”, made public by Indian Prime Minister Modi. At this distressful moment, we express our deepest condolences to the Central Committee of the CPI (Maoist), all party members, the People's Liberation Guerrilla Army, the Indian proletariat, and the broad revolutionary masses, including their bereaved family members. We express our strong solidarity with the CPI (Maoist) in continuing to
advance the revolutionary process of defending, applying and developing the world communist movement and its guiding ideology, Marxism-Leninism-Maoism.
