It is more than a quarter century since the CPI(M) led "Left" Front
assumed power in West Bengal. In the late 1950s the government of EMS
Namboodiripad in Kerala was prominently projected as a model by the
revisionist leadership of the united CPI to be followed after the
Telengana model of establishing parallel power in villages, uprooting
the feudal lords and their agents, was feared, hated and consigned to
the back burner. The rise of Khruschevite revisionism preaching the
possibility of socio-economic change through peacefully winning majority
in Parliament was not only hailed by the U.S. imperialism, it
tremendously emboldened the Indian revisionists. The CPI was split and
the CPI(M) formed cleverly retaining the Khruschevite model in the
Programme with left phrase-mongering. The present CPI (M) with
Namboodiripad and a host of revolution-fearing political careerists, the
upholders of the Kerala model with left verbiage, bared their fangs by
expelling the real communists from the party after the glorious volcanic
peasant upsurge in Naxalbari in 1967 forcefully reviving the Telengana
model of armed power capture pursuing the Maoist path. The United Front
with the CPI (M) as the major constituent despatched state armed forces
to crush the peasant struggle in Naxalbari. This was a watershade in the
Marxist movement in India. Revisionists in India once decisively changed
position to join the state power structure by soaking their hands with
the blood of peasants, workers and other sections pitted against the
very system of exploitation itself. The present "Left" Front is the
culmination of this journey down to hell. Marxism in the hands of these
reactionary revisionists has been distortingly reduced to a
state-friendly ism. Such pro-rich, pro-imperialist distorted Marxism
fits easily in the existing set-up. If the state resorts to brutal
coercive measures, it also elicites censent of the people in favour of
this rotten system. The CPI (M), CPI, and also the so-called
parliamentary Naxalites too help the state in wining people’s support as
well as neutralising their militancy against this order.
This booklet is meant for the people and the activists who want a
radical change of this existing system. The alternative revolutionary
model of Naxalbari has been increasingly developing in many states like
Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, Orissa,
Jharkhand, Tamil Nadu, etc. over the past decades. In West Bengal this
revolutionary Maoist model has been locked in a real battle against the
armed forces of CPI(M)-led "Left" Front Government and the CPI(M)
gangsters. Through this prolonged ideological and military battles
against the state and its agents, the Maoist model is sure to replace
the existing state system by ultimately setting up a socialist system in
India. The future of India lies with the dedicated Maoist
revolutionaries, not the hypocrat, rotten and careerist CPI(M) type
revisionists.
