France and India show the same sequence. Left and communist fronts stage the protests, IAP, SFI UK, HfHR and their partners carry them abroad, communist parties offer solidarity, and Singham-funded outlets present it all to the world as one global uprising. 29/29

Tricontinental's India staff come from the same organisations: Subin Dennis, former Delhi SFI vice-president who wrote for NewsClick; Nitheesh Narayanan, SFI activist since 2003; P. Ambedkar, SFI and ex-NewsClick; and Abhinav VK, SFI until 2020 and DYFI since 2016. 28/n

The People's Forum and CodePink, whose co-founder Jodie Evans is Singham's wife, also signed the 2024 Savera declaration on 'Hindu supremacy', which took the 'Hindu supremacy' framing used against India into American civil rights circles. 27/n

Singham launched the People's Forum in 2017 with $22.44M as a Manhattan hub for communist organising; IAP co-sponsored a teach-in there in 2023. Tricontinental, which received $16.76M, is run by Vijay Prashad, and Singham chairs its international advisory board. 26/n

In July 2026 the US House Ways and Means Committee subpoenaed BreakThrough News and two other Singham-funded fronts, the People's Forum and Tricontinental, in a probe of more than $39M that it advances Chinese Communist Party-aligned interests. 25/n

This is neither the first nor the last time Singham's money has reached media covering India. The the ED traced Rs 76.84 crore to NewsClick from the Justice and Education Fund and Rs 1.61 crore from The Tricontinental Ltd, entities it linked to Singham. 23/n

On 7 October, BT News quoted Brittas calling the CEC protests a 'historical movement to save democracy' and Neha Bora vowing to continue until the CEC was removed. On September 1, it carried the UN CERD findings against India that the MEA had rejected. 22/n

Its BT Live of 23 July hosted CPI(M) MP John Brittas on the CJP sit-in. On 30 July it ran 'India's Cockroach Rebellion' by Tricontinental's Atul Chandra, and on 29 August it covered SFI, AISF and AISA protests, quoting the CPI(M) and Vijay Prashad. 21/n

BreakThrough News received over $1.1M between 2021-2023. Funded via Neville Roy Singham-linked donor funds, the 501(c)(3) outlet faces ongoing congressional scrutiny over its financial network and pro-China coverage. 20/n

To reach a global audience these groups have relied on BreakThrough News, a New York outlet whose parent company, BT Media. Since July 2026, it has covered India's left protests repeatedly, often quoting & promoting the CPI(M), AISA and SFI while targeting the Indian government. 19/n

The student groups on India's streets belong to these parties: SFI to the CPI(M), AISA to CPI(ML) Liberation and AISF to the CPI. When the CPI(M) Polit Bureau called for countrywide protests on 10 October, the Marxist-Leninist blog In Defense of Communism carried it. 18/n

All these left groups are legitimising the on-ground left & communist protests do not work in isolation. IAP, HfHR, IAMC and SASG all endorsed Dismantling Global Hindutva in 2021. IAP, IAMC and HfHR endorsed the EU-India People's Roadmap among other anti-India campaigns. 17/n

The faces of the protests were then given platforms abroad. On Aug 5, 2026 IAMC held a congressional briefing on 'India's Crackdown on the Student Movement' with AISA's N. Sai Balaji, and on Aug 9, 2026, HfHR hosted AISA president Neha Bora alongside Arundhati Roy. 16/n

HfHR, along with various organisations including The Azadi Project, Alliance of South Asians Taking Action (ASATA), also organised protests against the Indian government across multiple cities in the US including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and San Francisco 15/n

In the US, HfHR, which has attacked India’s imaged for since its inception in 2019 held 'Stand with India's Students' gatherings outside Indian missions in Washington, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Fremont, using the same 'Main Bhi Cockroach' slogan in every city. 14/n
