Press release
Socialist Party will launch awareness campaign across the country to protest the privatization of railway stations
 
Whether travelling or transporting goods, Indian Railways is the lifeline of the whole country. This is one of the largest railway service in the world. The British used railway for the economic exploitation of India and the strengthening of its empire. The creation and extension of rail service in independent India was aimed at strengthening the country’s contact system, economy and military system. In the construction of Indian Railway Service, the country’s most valuable resources and labour is spent.

For the last few years the ruling class has been trying to privatize the railway. But railway unions have raised their voices against it. The present BJP government has cleared the intention to privatize the railway by initiating the sale of railway stations in private hands.
The Socialist Party has decided to launch an awareness campaign against this anti-constitutional and anti-people decision of the government. Under this campaign, the workers of the party will explain the reality of the arguments given to the citizens in favor of the privatization of the railway by the ruling class.

The campaign will start from Delhi on June 22. On that day, the Socialist Party Delhi Pradesh will conduct ‘Save Indian Railways’ march from Mandi House to Jantar-Mantar. After that, all state units will organize programs in their respective states. The party will hold a national convention on this issue with Hind Mazdoor Sabha (HMS).
