1965 and 45th anniversary of Eighth Party Congress held in May 1970
!Today on May 25th,we commemorate the 48th anniversary of the epic Naxalbari Struggle.It sprouted like a spark turning into a priarie fire.The uprising was reminiscent of a red flame radiating everywhere burning the torch of Marxism-Leninism -Mao thought. (now Maoism)Naxalbari lit the spark for the Indian Maoist movementafter the Telengana armed Struggle.Quoting organ of Erstwhile C.P.I.(M.L.) PWG ‘Voice of the Vanguard’ of July-October1997, “Charu Mazumdar and Naxalbari are names inseparablefrom each other.Whoever tried to separate CharuMazumdar from Naxalbari,had practically separated themselvesfrom the path of Naxalbari.In this essay I wish to reflect on his positive contribution and critically portray his stature.Brief bio below compiled from Hindustan Times-‘Charu Majumdar-Father of Naxalism’Born in a progressive landlord family in Siliguri in 1918, he not only dedicated his entire life to peasants' cause but also authored the historic 1968 Naxalbari uprising, the ideology behind which guides red radicalseven today.Son of an active freedom fighter, Charu Majumdar or CM rebelled against social inequalities even as a teenager. Later, impressed by "petty-bourgeois" national revolutionaries, he joined All Bengal Students Association affiliated to Anusilan group.Dropping out of college in1937-38 he joined Congress and tried to organise bidi workers.He later crossed over to CPI to work in its peasant front and soon won respect of the poor of Jalpaiguri.Soon an arrest-warrantforced him to go underground for the first time as a Left activist. Although CPI was banned at the outbreak of WorldWar II, he continued CPI activities among peasants and was made a member of CPI Jalpaiguri district committee in 1942.The promotion emboldened himto organise a 'seizure of crops' campaign in Jalpaiguri during theGreat Famine of 1943, more or less successfully.In 1946, he joined Tebhaga movement and embarked on a proletariat militant struggle in North Bengal. The stir shaped his vision of a revolutionary struggle. Later he worked among tea garden workers in Darjeeling.The CPI was banned in 1948 and he spent the next three years in jail. He tied the nuptial knot with a fellow CPI member from Jalpaiguri - Lila Mazumdar Sengupta in January 1954.The couple shifted to Siliguri, which remained the centre of his activities for a few years. His ailing father and unmarried sister lived there in abject poverty. But even erosion of peasant movement and personalfinancial crisis did not dampen his revolutionary spirits and he continued efforts to unite labourers, tea garden workers and rickshaw-pullers there.CM's growing ideological rift with CPI came to fore after the party's Palghat Congress in 1956.The 'Great Debate' across the communist world in the late 50spropelled him to mull a revolutionary philosophy suiting Indian conditions.He was again jailed during 1962 Indo-China war as part of curbs on all Left activities in India.The CPI split in1964 over ideological differences among the cadres. CM joined the breakaway CPI (M)but could not go with its decisionto participate in polls postponing'armed struggle' to a day when revolutionary situation prevailedin India.He kept a bad health during 1964-65 and was advised rest. But he devoted this time, even in jail, to study and write about Mao's thoughts. The exercise shaped his vision and ideas of a mass struggle, which were recorded in his writing and speeches of 1965-67. These were later called 'Historic Eight Documents' and subsequently formed the basis of Naxalism. ANALYSIS OF COMRADE CMCharu Mazumdar was the pioneer in demarcating from Khruschevite revisionism and upholding the torch of Marxism-Leninism-Mao Tse Tung Thought(now Maoism).This year we commemorate 50 years since Charu Mazumdar started writing his famous 8 documents in 1965.They Sowed the seeds for the line and formation of there-organized Communist Party.In 1965,he wrote his first five documents.On 28thJanuary 1965 C.M wrotethe first of his eight documents which analyzed the present and International Situation , how Communists were being arrested ,and how to build the revolutionary party. ( STUDYEIGHT DOCUMENTS HERE)Within September 1965 he wrote 4 more documents.In the2nddocument summed up the experience of struggles of theC.P.I.inTebhaga.In the third document he analyzed the favourable post world war 2 situation and the failure of the Communist party to utilise it.He also discussed the agrarian revolution taking lessons from the past and propagated armed struggle.In a fourth document he covered the forms of organization and struggles combating revisionism and explained the concrete manifestations of revisionism.In a fifth document he exposed the revisionist character of the C.P.I.(M.).who upheld Khruschevism and opposed path of armed struggle.These 5 documents sowed the seeds of the glorious Naxalbari Struggle. Later in his 6thdocument in 1966 gave the call to organize anti-revisionist struggle and exposed the capitulation of the C.P.M.In his 7thdocument he gave a call to the workers, peasants andmiddle-class youths to work to initiate armed struggle and seizepolitical power.Finally in his eighth document he wrote on the tasks of the peasantry to form liberated areas in the countryside and exposed the class collaborationist policies of the C.P.I.(M.L.) through the united front govt.It is also the 45th anniversary ofthe 8th Congress of the C.P.I.(M.L.) held in May 1970 which defined the party programme. Itwas the 1sttime in history that an all-india Communist party upheld the programme of protracted peoples war path’ andclassified India as a ‘semicolonialand semi-feudal ‘ society.Earlier in the mid 1940’s only the Andhra unit of the C.P.I upheld path of protracted peoples war and termed India assemi-feudal and semi-colonial.True ,he made serious errors calling for 'annihilation of the class enemy ' and for the 'disbandment of mass organizations.'However certain sections of the Communist campvillify his great contributions andonly expose his errors.Although critical of gross mistakes the Andhra Pradesh state commitee led by Kondappali Seetharamiah and the C.O.C.(M.L.) upheld the programme of the 1970Congress .Later the C.P.I.(M.L.) Peoples war and Party Unity sections also upheld it. Although critical of left adventurism comrades like Sushital Roy Choudary, Suniti Kumar Ghosh ,Kondappali Seetharamiah and Darshan SinghDushanj upheld the positive aspect of Comrade C.M.Even a revolutionary punjabi jounal 'Surkh Rekha' upheld his contribution in 1993 and in 2014which also upheld Comrade T.Nagi Reddy.In the same articlein 1993 it upheld the contributions.of Comrade C.M.and T.N. Forming a new party in 2004 did not mean rejecting the contribution of CharuMazumdar.Morally Charu Mazumdar led the Naxalbari struggle and later groups like PWG or PU always though critically,swore by his name.Significant that degenerated or revisionist Marxist -Leninist groups reject Majumdar.Today groups like Red Star have villified the party programme ofthe 1970 Congress while the Kanu Sanyal C.P.I.(M.L.) does notuphold C.M's revolutionary contribution.Red Star Group has distorted the 1970 party programme by advocating ‘neocolonial era ‘ and ‘’path of peoples democratic revolution.’It was Comrade Mao Tse Tung who himself endorsed the 1970 party Congress programme.As an exception revisionist C.P.I.(M.L.) Liberation have upheld the positive aspects of CM.,till today.The 1970 C.P.I.(M.L.) Party Congress programme set the base for the later struggle of theC.P.I.(M.L.) Peoples War group, Party Unity Group and the present C.P.I.(Maoist) ,of course with amendments. In the 1995 C.P.I.(M.L.) Peoples War Conference and the 2001 9thparty Congress(actually 2ndof C.P.I-M.L.) the 1970 Congress party programme was upheld and a portrait of Charu Mazumdar was garlanded.http://democracyandclasstruggle.blogspot.in/…/long-live-leg…
