CLC State Conf In April—Call To Fight Against Govt Repression

Hyderabad, Feb.5 (Maxim News): Second state conference of Civil Liberties Committee (CLC) will be held at Sundaraiah Kalakshetram here on Aril 11 and 12, 2020. A reception committee was formed for the conference with intellectuals, democratic organizations and others, with Senior Journalist Pasham Yadagiri as it’s chairman.

Yadagiri released a pamphlet relating to the conference at a media meet at Hyderguda NSS here today. Speaking to the media, he said that many intellectuals, journalists, judicial personalities from all over India will participate in the conference.

He regretted that the Governments of the day were resorting to repressive measures and using the police force to suppress all those who were fighting against the evils of loot, discrimination, untouchability, imbalances, hunger, unemployment, etc., instead of going into the reasons for this unfortunate situation prevailing in the country and finding solutions for the same. The Governments were throttling the voice of democratic forces and taking away their right for free expression and right to live. Those who were questioning the undemocratic and suppressive measures were being killed or kept in jails for years together without trail.

Yadagiri further stated that while agitations were going on against NRC, CAA and NPR, Government unleashed a reign of terror and torturing the intellectuals, democratic lovers, writers and workers. There was need to fight for protecting peoples’ rights and constitutional guarantees and freedom of expression, he said and called upon all the sections to participate in the CLC conference and make it a success. Prof. Laxman Gaddam, CLC President, V Raghunath, vice-president, N Narayana Rao, General Secretary and P M Raju, city president, were present at the event. (Maxim News)
