Message from the Communist Party of Pakistan

 

 

I, ON my own behalf, and on behalf of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Pakistan (CPP), warmly congratulate the leadership and members of the CPI(M) for holding this 20th congress of the party.

 

The regional and international political situation has given special importance to your congress. The capitalist world has badly failed to overcome the international systemic economic crisis.

 

The quest of the imperialism for establishing hegemony over the natural resources of the world’s reserves and its transportation routes has evoked them to plunge the world into blatant covert and overt military actions. Our region has been turned into a battlefield of different capital power centres. Obscurantist and fascist elements have been filling the vacuum, created due to the falling back of the progressive forces. This has largely added a new, alarming element to the already existing threats to human civilisation, which phenomenon has much contributed to creating confusion in the ranks of the progressive forces. Resultantly, the anti-science, anti-progress, misogynist and anti-minorities forces are some time obfuscated with anti-imperialism.

 

Dear Comrades,

 

We are highly convinced, that the distinguished delegates of this congress will be able to make an indepth study of the prevailing situation and will deliberate correct conclusions. The strategy developed on the basis of a rational analysis, and the conclusions drawn out will not only benefit the Indian progressive forces, but the entire region and the world at large.

 

For this reason, the proceedings of the congress would be closely watched with great enthusiasm by the communist parties in the region and beyond, waiting impatiently for the deliberations and conclusive guidelines of the congress.

 

Once again, we cordially congratulate the CPI(M) for holding its 20th congress.

 

With comradely greetings and best wishes,

Long live the CPP-CPI(M) solidarity!

Long live communist fraternity!

Long live Marxism-Leninism!

 

--- Imdad Qazi, secretary general, Communist Party of Pakistan
