Addressing the gathering, CPI(M) Polit Bureau member R Arun Kumar said, 鈥淥ver 56,000 people have already been killed in Palestine due to Israeli aggression, yet the Indian government refuses to even vote against this genocide in the UN. Now, following the recent US-Israel assault on Iran, it still chooses silence. This is nothing short of complicity. If you do not stand against crimes against humanity, you are silently endorsing them.鈥 He reiterated the Left parties’ core demands: immediate freedom and full statehood for Palestine, international recognition, and the right of return for all displaced Palestinians.

Kumar added that the sustained oppression of sovereign nations like Iran and Palestine by the US and Israel is not only a violation of international law but a threat to global peace. 鈥淎ny ceasefire will remain fragile unless the structural oppression ends,鈥 he warned. Other Left leaders who addressed the protest included Amarjeet Kaur (CPI), Sucheta De (CPI-ML), RS Dagar (RSP), and G Devrajan (Forward Bloc). All speakers echoed the call for India to adopt an independent and non-aligned foreign policy rooted in justice and solidarity with oppressed peoples globally, the statement said.
