Dear Comrades,
The Central Executive Committee meeting held at Mysore on 27 – 29 August, 2009 was historical in
all aspects. The Reception Committee made excellent arrangements for holding the CEC, including
food and accommodation. Our heartful thanks to them.
The CEC was presided over by Com. J.N. Mishra, All India President and was inaugurated by Com.

and homage to Martyrs. In his inaugural speech, Com. Mohammed Amin pointed out the antiworking
class policies being continued by the UPA government and the resistance of the working
class and sustained struggles. A national convention will be held at Delhi on 14th September to
chalk out further programmes.

All the executive committee members participated in the discussion. The reports indicate that 70% -
80% workers participated in the strike. In many circles the strike was almost 100%. It is heartening

up for severe criticism.
