The newly elected government in India, led by fascist BJP and its Prime Minister Modi, was congratulated by the Chinese Premier Li Keqiang. A similar call from Obama was politely ignored. Barely a week after the formation of the new government in India, the Chinese premier Keqiang will be in New Delhi to promote a "robust relationship" between the "two giants" India and China. Premier Keqiang said, "China and India are important neighbors to each other and the top two emerging markets in the world. China-India relations have moved beyond the bilateral scope and have taken on global strategic significance."
The rise of the Modi-led fascist government in India takes place against the background of a very rapid US decline globally, especially in Afghanistan and Iraq, which are closer to India. China is now India's leading trading partner and, to cement their strategic tie with India, China is expected to allow India to export more goods.
One of the key supporters of the Modi government is an Indian multinational, the Adani Group. The Adani Group specializes in power generation and ports. Many Adani projects were either financed or built with Chinese infrastructure.
When Modi was campaigning for the recent elections, the Adani Group provided a fleet of luxury airplanes for Modi's travel.
The rise of Indian multinationals such as Adani Group not only requires Chinese finance but Chinese influence around the world. The giant power plant owned by the Adani Group relies on coal from South Africa, Australia and Indonesia – all heavily indebted to China. The Adani group plans to sell electricity to neighboring Pakistan. China is also a crucial partner for India to implement an oil pipeline from Iran. The alliances among capitalist bosses are unstable because the profit they seek creates crisis and uncertainty. The Indian ruling class built and nurtured the fascist movement to bargain hard with both the rising Chinese bosses and weak US imperialists. By unleashing racism and terror against the minority Muslim workers they have come to power. Police, judges and government officials who supported racist massacres are given leadership positions in the new fascist government. Just as in Nazi Germany, history books are being rewritten to glorify Hindu fanaticism.

As the tide of fascism rises, the working class is also gathering its strength.
"A call to arms now," is how an angry worker reacted when two young girls were gang- raped and lynched in the heartland of Hindu fascism. The fatal mistake of the old communist movement not to destroy wage slavery eventually misled the working class into nationalism and acceptance of the bosses' dictatorship. The working class is desperately looking for leadership to destroy the very foundation of capitalism.
Exposing Modi's fascism alone will not liberate the working class. The International Communist Workers' Party (ICWP) has been patiently struggling to win workers and students in India to fight for communist revolution by joining our party. The working class has no other option to fight for the world we need. India has the world's second-largest standing army, comprised of soldiers who come from the most oppressed working class families. Our goal is to win these soldiers to unite with the working class to smash the capitalist profit system and build communism.
