CPIML has strongly condemned the massacre of 13 coal mine workers in Oting village, Mon District, Nagaland by security forces and demanded the immediate repeal of AFSPA. The party has expressed profound sympathy with the victim families. 

The CPIML Central Committee has issued a statement saying that the massacre that took place in Nagaland on 4 December has exposed the truth about the Modi government's much-hyped Nagaland Peace Accord. 

The arrest of two journalists Samriddhi Sakunia and Swarna Jha by the Tripura police for doing their job - reporting from rural Tripura on recent attacks against Muslims in the state - is the latest in the series of attacks on press freedom by the BJP.
