It has become a fashion in some revolutionary circles to
criticize or condemn the C.P.I.(Maoist) particularly in groups like the
C.P.I(M.L) led by K.N.Ramchandran and the C.P.I(M.L) Class struggle group which
upholds the late Kanu Sanyal who term them as ‘terrorists.’. The
Rahul foundation erroneously criticizes the C.P.I.(Maoist) as
non-marxist.The C.P.I.(Maoist )has defied all odds with their struggle in
Dandkaranya the best example .Irrespective of errors in their military line
they have defended armed revolutionary resistance more than any organization in
India.Whatever maybe it’s weaknesses in practice the C.P.I.(Maoist) is the most
correct of all revolutionary groups. They have proved how much they are
ingrained with the masses.Inspite of adverse subjective conditions they have
formed revolutionary commitees or ‘Janata Sarkars.’There is an analytical
article in RDF organ Jan Pratirodh by Ajay Kumar which elaborates how
democratically the ‘Janata Sarkars’ are created and how they participate in the
everyday struggles of the tribals. The innovations of the Maoists Are
absolutely unbelievable, literally creating subjective conditions
for their cause. They have defied groups who professed the ‘3 stage theory’ and
prolonged armed struggle. Writers like Bernard d’Mellow or filmmakers like
Sanjay Kak testify this phenomenan.Inspite of Bernard not accepting India as
semi-feudal and colonial he has recognized the depths of their work. within the
guerilla Zones. Inspite of not following orthodox Marxism-Leninism Mao-Tse Tung
Thought they have innovated unique forms of struggle. Forces condemning them
are actually speaking against the revolution. The author some years ago spoke
to veteran Comrade Sunder Navalkar who upheld the struggle of the C.P.I.Maoist
as the only genuinely correct line apart from their lack of urban work ,wrong
stand on supporting nationality struggles as armed struggles and replacing Mao
Thought with ‘Maoism.’ The Central Team of the C.P.I(M.l)in 1997 inspite
of not merging with the erstwhile PW.group or now the C.P.I.(Maoist) defended
the movement in Dandkaranya and Bihar.and comrades from the T.Nagi Reddy stream
that deferred armed struggle who merged into the C.P.R.C.I.(M.L.) tooth and
nail defended the C.P.I.(Maoist) as a genuine revolutionary force.
The self criticism made b y the C.P.I.(M.L)Peoples War group in
1980 is of historical importance in the rectification of the Charu
Mazumdar line. “All forms of struggle are subordinate to, and are
guided by the concrete political line. If the concrete political line deviates
from the mass line, the forms of struggle cannot but be otherwise….. So in
order to negate the line of annihilation, we have to negate the wrong ideology
which is alien to Marxism and its consequential political and organisational
manifestations. The rejection of other forms of struggle and organisation :
Until then the party negated all mass organisations and all other forms of
struggle, thereby isolating the party from the masses which made comrades
easier targets for the enemy. In order to combat the long-standing revisionist
practice of conducting mass struggles on the lines of economism and adopting
legal and open forms of organisation as the only form of organisation, our
party arrived at a one-sided and wrong formulation that the armed form of
struggle is the only form of struggle and armed form of organisation the only
form of organisation.”
The C.P.I.(ML) peoples war November 1995 conference
was major achievement and reflected the great fighting spirit displayed by the
organization from 1980.Today forces like The Communist Party of Phillipines,the
most theoretically correct party since the revolutionary Chinese Communist
party led by Mao have recognized the C.P.I.(Maoist) which is
significant.The inter-group self criticism of clashes between
M.C.C.and P.W in 2001 had historic significance and played major role in the
formation of the Maoist Party in 2004.
