Reject Blind and Communal Nationalism
CHANDIGARH: The Bhartiya Kisan Union (Ekta-Ugrahan) strongly condemns the Indian government's actions aimed at fuelling war hysteria and calls upon the public to stand united against this unjust and fratricidal war.
In a press statement, BKU (E-U) State President Joginder Singh Ugrahan and Senior Vice President Jhanda Singh Jethuke stated that while the Pahalgam incident was deeply tragic and condemnable, using it as a pretext to wage war against a neighboring country reflects the Modi government’s narrow communal agenda. A war between the highly armed forces of both countries will sacrifice the youth and devastate the Punjabi and Kashmiri communities on both sides. The leaders warned that Indian strikes inside Pakistan could trigger a full-scale war, the consequences of which will be borne heavily by the people.
They urged all justice- and peace-loving citizens to mobilize immediately to oppose war and raise their voices for peace. The Modi government, under the guise of ultra-nationalism, is entering treacherous deals with imperialist powers while simultaneously cracking down on legitimate people’s movements in the name of national security. The public must recognize the true intent behind this war rhetoric.
BKU (E-U) calls on the people to resist communal and ultra-nationalist propaganda, oppose any move toward war, reject all forms of divisive politics, uphold unity, and intensify the fight for their democratic rights.
The organization concluded by emphasizing that war is not a solution but a distraction from real issues-such as injustice, inequality, and corporate-driven policies-exacerbated by communal politics disguised as nationalism.
