New Dehli :The joint meeting of the CTUs and SKM held on 18th October reiterated their resolve to continue coordinated, synchronized and solidarity actions with each other in order to challenge the pro-corporate, anti-workers, anti-farmers policies of the Central Government.
13th August 2025 was observed against the corporate loot in defence of national sovereignty called by SKM and CTUs independently as well as jointly in some places, there was a call by the CTUs to observe 22nd September 2025 as black day against four labour codes, to which SKM extended its supports. These actions were as follow up of the successful 9th July General Strike called by CTUs and mass mobilisation in rural areas by SKM.
In the joint meeting, it was decided to take forward extensive campaign for more than a month on the respective charter of demands of CTUs and SKM as well as the common issues to culminate into massive decentralised mobilisation of workers and farmers in all districts and state headquarters on 26th November 2025. The leadership everywhere will submit memorandum of concerns and demands addressed to the President of India.
The meeting noted that it is most urgent task to campaign in masses down below to safeguard secular democracy, to fight back pro-corporate, anti-labour, anti-farmer, and anti-national oppressive policy framework of the Central government which is becoming more vindictive and oppressive. The government is serving the interest of the international finance capital and has failed to protect Indian farmers, workers and small businesses and trades against the Trump’s tariff regime.
There are new offenses on the public sector enterprises and the public services for privatisation and sale to corporates, the latest being the proposed Electricity Amendment Bill 2025, Draft Labour policy from MoLE, the attempts of circumventing state governments to carry forward its agenda of four labour codes, and land grab of farmers through state machinery etc.
It was decided that all efforts be made to seek support and to extend support to the struggles of other sections of the society to broaden the mass appeal. This will help in resistance movement and for sustenance of the struggles in future.
CTUs and SKM called upon the common masses to extend their support in these actions in the national interest.
