Comrades and friends,
You all know quite
well of the two communist revolutionary organisations, the CPI(ML)PW and MCCI
who have been advancing steadfastly on the path of armed agrarian revolution,
building a people’s army and base areas as part of protracted peoples war in
order to uproot feudalism and imperialism and build a new democratic India.
Although the history of origin and development of both of our organisations has
been different but as a result of advancing the work with the same aim and
direction, the relationship between the two organisations has been congenial and
fraternal right from the beginning. Unity has been the principal aspect in the
ideas, principles, policies and programmes of both organisations, which is
natural also. Still, there have also been some points of disagreement. The aim
of both of our organisations has been to build an all India Party resolving the
main points of differences through bilateral talks and with this objective,
unity talks have been continuing since 1981 itself. But because of the emergence
of differences on some important ideological and political points since 1995,
stagnation came about in the unity talks as a result of which, bilateral talks
failed for some time.
And, the initial
history of the CPI(ML)PW and MCC was also very cordial, fraternal and
cooperative. But later, in the course of work in the area, some problems emerged
and that struggle reached the stage of armed clashes; and when that started,
armed clashes continued for many years. Definitely, it was an undesirable,
sad and unfortunate period but it was the bitter truth. And after the merger
of PU and PW into a new party CPI(ML)PW, these clashes transformed into struggle
between the PW and the MCC.
There was loss of
lives and huge physical and economic loss of a large number of leaders, cadres
and sympathizers in the mutual struggle, which ultimately caused very serious
loss to the Indian revolution. As a result, internal debate began within the two
organisations and it was felt that this is an expression of
non-proletarian/alien trends and this is a black chapter in the history of
the revolution. It is necessary to stop this as soon as possible. Therefore,
both the parties, the MCC and the CPI(ML)PW, made their respective declarations
in 2000 to stop the clashes on t heir behalf and with this, the process of
ending armed clashes began.
After this, in August
2001, once again during bilateral talks between the central delegates of the PW
and the MCC, both the organisations after a review of the past and with a
feeling of guilt did criticism and self-criticism for this loss caused to the
Indian revolution and jointly called upon both the ranks to determinedly stop
the clashes and appealed to them to maintain patience and peace and resolve
various differences through mutual talks. This meeting turned out to be a
milestone in starting a new chapter of revival of cordial and fraternal relation
between the two organisations. After this, the relation between the two
organisations started becoming very good and in the bilateral meetings after
this, some important joint programmes were also started. Simultaneously a
decision was taken to hold talks once again on the points of ideological, the
political and organisational difference. In course of the systematic process of
continuous improvement of mutual relations, recently in an important bilateral
central meeting, both the organisations were not only successful in reaching
unity on many ideological, political and international and national issues, but
were also successful in strengthening the basis of building unity between the
two. Especially, both have accepted Marxism-Leninism-Maoism as their ideological
basis. Both organisation have pledged to resolve all the problems in light of
this common ideological basis.
In this situation,
both the organisations have decided to find the causes of the earlier mistakes
and after understanding their respective weaknesses in relation to the mistakes,
openly present self-criticism of our weaknesses in front of all ranks and
revolutionary people. We, both organisations, considering all comrades killed
from both sides as great martyrs, give our heartfelt homage and present our deep
condolences towards all grieved families and relatives. Also, both organisations,
accepting all responsibility for past mistakes, consider this as a small black
blot in our respective long revolutionary lives and accept to always remain
serious towards conducting intense struggle against all non-proletarian, and
petty bourgeois and bourgeois ideas and are once again conducting self-criticism
for this grave loss to the Indian revolution, caused due to not being able to
resolve all problems through Marxist methods. Whatever it be, even though it is
late, both of the organisations express our debt to the international and Indian
communist revolutionary organisations, groups and broad revolutionary and
democratic masses for their great help in reaching this correct decision. Also,
in the difficult and complex situation of today, we appeal to workers, peasants,
students, youth, intellectuals, women and all the toiling and progressive masses
to come forward to make successful the continuing attempts for the aim of
building the three magic weapons of revolution, an all India
Marxist-Leninist-Maoist Party, Peoples Army and a United Front, in order to
fasten the pace of revolution, by facing the anti-revolutionary brutal
encirclement repression and atrocities of the enemies of the people -
imperialism, comprador capitalism and feudalism and the Indian state deployed
for their security and development.
With revolutionary
greetings,
