May Day-MK Pandhe

MEMORABLE VISIT TO CHICAGO MARTYRS HERITAGE

- Dr.M.K. Pandhe ,President CITU

It was a great occasion filled with revolutionary emotions, when I got the opportunity to visit Chicago to pay homage to the valiant memory of the heroic martyrs of Chicago on 6 July 2008 who scarified their life in 1886. They fought for implementation of eight hour day but brutal suppression of their legitimate struggle which evoked strong protests all over the world. The International Labour Congress held in Paris on 14 July 1889 while observing hundredth Anniversary of French Revolution gave a call to observe May 1 as the day of International Solidarity of the working class which led the foundation of May Day all over the world. The Second International which met in Geneva in 1892 endorsed the call.
