On December 26, 1925, a few ardent young patriots moved by the urge to free the motherland from colonial bo***ge, inspired by Socialist Ideology and fired with revolutionary zeal, braved imperialist persecution and came together to form CPI.

DHARMENDRA PRADHAN MUST RESIGN!

30/05/2026

The future of our children is becoming a casualty of Modi Government’s incompetence and corruption.

From the NEET paper leak scandal and cancellation of examinations, to the repeated failures affecting CBSE exams and now the CUET, not a single major examination is being conducted properly. More than one crore students and their families have been subjected to uncertainty, anxiety and immense mental stress because of the government’s incompetence and negligence.

The Modi government boasts of Digital India but when it comes to safeguarding the future of students, it has failed miserably. Paper leaks, server crashes, delays, irregularities and mismanagement have become the new normal. This is not merely administrative failure, it is betrayal with an entire generation.

NTA must be scrapped and a decentralised, robust and transparent system should replace it. The Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan has repeatedly failed in his responsibility to ensure a fair, secure and reliable examination system. Having proven utterly incompetent, he should resign immediately. Instead, he continues to enjoy the protection of the Prime Minister while students and parents pay the price for these failures. The continued chaos is shameful and unacceptable.

CPI Condemns Anti People Fuel Price Hike and Calls for Nationwide Protests Against Modi Government’s Failure

The continuous hike in petrol and diesel prices for the fourth time in just ten days once again exposes the thoroughly anti-people and corporate driven character of the Modi government. Fuel prices have risen by nearly ₹8 per litre within days, pushing petrol prices in Delhi beyond ₹102 per litre and ₹111 in Mumbai. These increases are not isolated economic decisions; they trigger a cascading effect across the economy by raising transportation costs, food prices, agricultural expenses, public transport fares and the overall cost of living. At a time when workers, farmers, salaried sections and the poor are already struggling with deepening economic distress, the government has chosen to further burden the people with relentless inflation.

The Modi government is attempting to justify these hikes by speaking of losses faced by oil companies. The facts reveal the exact opposite. During the January to March 2026 quarter alone, Indian Oil Corporation reported profits of ₹14,458 crore, HPCL around ₹4,902 crore, and BPCL ₹3,191 crore. The annual profits of these companies have also risen sharply. If oil companies are earning thousands of crores in profits, why are the benefits not being passed on to consumers? Since assuming office in 2014, even during periods when global crude oil prices were low, the BJP government consistently increased excise duties and used petroleum taxation as a means to extract revenue from the people. The present price hikes are therefore not merely the result of external developments, but part of a long standing policy framework that prioritises corporate profit and fiscal extraction over public welfare.

The government is now hiding behind the West Asian conflict as a convenient excuse. But the crisis is not solely because of the war. It is also a consequence of the Modi government’s economic mismanagement, the steadily falling value of the rupee, growing import vulnerability, and the surrender of India’s independent foreign policy before the US-Israel nexus. While ordinary people are asked to bear “sacrifice,” corporate profits remain protected and untouched. This government has completely failed to provide relief from inflation and economic hardship. The CPI strongly condemn these anti people fuel price hikes and call upon people across the country to organise protests and democratic resistance against the total failure of the Modi government and its policies that place corporate interests above the lives of the people.

Seminar on “NEET, Paper Leaks & The Assault on Public Education” in Ajoy Bhawan

Repeated paper leaks, exam cancellations and large scale irregularities have exposed the deep crisis in India’s education system. NEET has become a symbol of stress, exclusion, commercialisation and institutional failure, while lakhs of students are forced to suffer because of corruption, privatisation and the collapse of accountability. The assault on public education is not accidental. It is the outcome of policies that undermine equal access, social justice and democratic rights in education.

Join us for an important discussion on the growing education crisis, the NEET scam, repeated paper leaks, attacks on public institutions and the future of accessible, equitable public education.

Speakers:
• P. Sandosh Kumar, Member of Parliament (RS), National Secretary, CPI
• Prof. Ajay Gudavarthy, Political Scientist, Associate Professor, JNU

From LPG to Petrol: People Pay the Price for the Adani-Modi Nexus

The Communist Party of India strongly condemns the repeated hikes in LPG, petrol, diesel and CNG prices that are pushing crores of Indians into deeper economic distress. Every fuel price hike becomes a tax on the poor and the middle classes. It raises the cost of transport, food, medicines, agriculture and every essential commodity. The burden is not limited to fuel stations; it enters every kitchen, every field and every household budget. While people are being asked to tighten their belts through austerity measures, the Modi Government continues to protect corporate profiteers and pass the entire burden of its failures onto the people.

This crisis is the outcome of Prime Minister Modi’s disastrous foreign policy and his complete surrender of India’s strategic autonomy before the United States and Donald Trump. India was pressured into cutting energy imports from Russia and Iran, weakening our energy security and exposing the country to global shocks and manipulation. Today the nation is paying the price for a foreign policy driven not by national interest but by political servility. It is widely believed that Trump is using the legal cases against Modi’s favourite billionaire Gautam Adani as leverage to arm-twist India into deals harmful to our sovereignty and economy. The same Adani who grew astronomically richer under Modi’s rule has now agreed to pay 18 million dollars in penalties in the United States in a fraud and bribery-related case. In 2024, US regulators accused the Adanis of bribing Indian officials in renewable energy projects and misleading investors while raising funds. Who are these Indian officials? Why has no action been taken against them? Why is the Modi Government silent? If there was no corruption, why the settlement? If there was corruption, who protected it?

The truth is becoming impossible to hide: profits are privatised for crony corporates while losses are socialised upon the people. The poor are paying more for cooking gas, farmers are paying more for diesel, workers are paying more for transport, while a handful of politically connected billionaires continue to thrive. The Modi Government cannot run the country like a recovery agency for crony capitalists and foreign interests. The fuel price hikes must be rolled back immediately. A thorough and independent investigation must be conducted into all allegations of bribery, corruption, manipulation and political protection linked to the Adani group and the officials involved. The people of India cannot be made to suffer in order to protect the corrupt nexus between corporate power and political power.

NEET Scam Exposes Complete Collapse of Modi Government’s Examination System: CPI

The Communist Party of India strongly condemns the cancellation of the NEET-UG 2026 examination following paper leaks and large-scale irregularities. Lakhs of students who studied with immense hardship and hope are once again being punished because of the total failure of the NTA and the Modi Government.

This is not an accident but a pattern. Repeated paper leaks, exam scams and cancellations have exposed the collapse of the examination system under this regime. The Modi Government has repeatedly trampled upon the aspirations of students while pushing a deeply discriminatory system that benefits coaching centres and the privileged at the cost of poor, rural and marginalised students.

The CPI reiterates that NEET itself is unjust and discriminatory. The latest fiasco once again proves that this centralised exam system cannot guarantee either fairness or credibility. NEET and the NTA must be scrapped and the examination system must be decentralised in a democratic and transparent manner. A Supreme Court monitored probe should be instituted into the latest scandal and accountability should be fixed at the highest levels of government. All those guilty of playing with the future of students must be identified and given exemplary punishment.
