CPI(M) says U.S. protectionism could reduce employment prospects of Kerala youth
Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] State committee on Friday flagged the perils posed by U.S. President Donald Trump's protectionist policies to software job aspirants from Kerala. CPI(M) State secretary M.V. Govindan told a press conference in Thiruvananthapuram on Friday that Mr. Trump had warned Google, Meta and Microsoft, among other global software and computing majors, against employing Indian engineers and technicians. Mr. Govindan stated that the 'chest-thumping, extreme nationalists' within the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) had not dared to make even the slightest whimper of protest against the imperialist and isolationist Trump administration. 'The Union government was bereft of national character, despite its tall claims. It crumbled under U.S. pressure,' he added. Mr. Govindan said India's free trade agreement with the United Kingdom was a brazen violation of anti-dumping laws, and the State's agricultural sector would suffer as a consequence. Mr. Govindan termed the decision of the Vice-Chancellors of certain State-funded universities to address a 'knowledge meet' chaired by Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat a disgrace to Kerala. He noted that the Union government-appointed Governor, who was also the Chancellor of State-funded universities, had appointed RSS apparatchiks as Vice-Chancellors to pursue the Sangh Parivar's saffronisation agenda in the higher education sector. He said the Kerala government had approached the Supreme Court to restrict the Chancellor's 'constitutional overreach' in the higher education sector. He said Kerala Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar had rejected the names proposed by the government and appointed RSS supporters to the Syndicate of the Sree Sankaracharya University of Sanskrit. Mr. Govindan said CPI(M) would legally and politically oppose the decision. VS memorial meeting The CPI(M) will organise a condolence meeting for the late Chief Minister V.S. Achuthanandan in Thiruvananthapuram on August 1. Various district committees would organise commemorative meetings honouring the departed leader's 'revolutionary and democratic ethos' between August 1 and 10. Mr. Govindan said Opposition leaders backed by the right-wing corporate media often vilified CPI(M) leaders during their lifetime, only to lionise their memories after death. He cautioned party workers to exercise vigilance against a political conspiracy to exploit the memory of late leaders against the CPI(M), often by cherry-picking statements and episodes from their political lives.
