Letter to the Editor

Dear Editor, People’s March,

Greetings.

Peoples march (PM) is the voice of Indian revolution, i.e., voice of revolution. But how is it that PM published the report given by the non-revolutionary, economist, reformist, revisionist MLPD of Germany.

PM has published a report on the Worker’s movement of Germany with reference of the MLPD in March05 issue, including in some previous issues. It is a fact that the worker’s movement is organizing in Germany continuously. PM can publish that report of the worker’s movement on the basis of its revolutionary position. But my question arises when that is published with reference of MLPD.

Here is a concrete example of the revisionist political role of the MLPD. The 7th Congress of a notorious revisionist party in the name of Worker’s Party of Bangladesh under the leadership of Rashed Khan Menon was held on 23rd to 27th Feb.’05. In this Congress, a representative of the MLPD attended, as also revisionist CPM leader Biman Basu of West Bengal with so many native and foreign revisionist parties & organizations joined. In the 90’s, the MLPD and PKK (Turkey) joined a seminar in Kolkata under the leadership of the CPM. Is there any necessity to explain further?

Footnote: The Worker’s Party of Bangladesh is not only a huckster of parliamentary politics, sometimes they even organize movements unitedly with the BNP and sometimes with the Awami League Party,, the agent ruling class parties of imperialism & expansionism. They a1so rebuke the Maoist movement of Bangladesh as terrorist. Their party chief Rashed Khan Menon, was once elected as MP (member of parliament) of the pigsty; as the only one member from their party.

I hope PM will review this matter. I will be glad if PM prints this opinion in the next issue.

With greetings.

Mohan Sarker.

We are happy to receive your letter and welcome your response to the report published in the magazine. In your letter you have drawn our attention to the character of the MLPD. Our report in the last issue of the GM workers struggle was intended to highlight the struggle of the working class that is growing in Europe, without going into the politics of the various parties involved in leading it. Though we do realize the success or failure of a struggle/movement depends, to a great extent on the leadership of these movements. As you must have observed we only sought to present a picture of a big movement of the working class in Germany, but did not seek to analyse the class forces leading it.
