In one of history’s cruelest political ironies, the Leftists and Communists who helped Ayatollah Khomeini overthrow the Shah were among the first to be imprisoned, tortured, and executed by the very Islamic regime they helped bring to power.

Most importantly, Kerala operates within India's capitalist constitutional framework. It depends heavily on central government tax transfers, national financial institutions, private-sector employment, and foreign remittances in capitalist economies. But none of this comes under the actual communist economic system.

A major ideological weakness of the Left was that it considered itself 'progressive' and the masses 'backward.'

After a century of existence, Indian Communism cannot be judged by intent, theory, or rhetoric. It must be judged by record. That record shows an ideology that arrived from outside India, misunderstood Indian society, subordinated national interest to foreign centres of power, and repeatedly chose ideology over country.

Sitaram Yechuri was sent to Nepal by PM Manmohan Singh to meet Maoist leader and friend Baburam Bhattarai.

Earlier this year, Sitaram Yechury had declined an invitation to the hallowed consecration ceremony at the Ram Mandir temple in Ayodhya, dismissing the sacred ritual as a state-sponsored event.

Rahul Gandhi in a public meeting said that if Congress comes to power would conduct a financial and institutional survey to ascertain who had wealth in the country. He said the grand old party would then bring policy for wealth redistribution to the backward castes and 'minorities' based on their population, based on caste census data.

CPI(M) recently uploaded a post, hailing Chinese mass murderer Mao Zedong as a leader who brought about 'democratic revolution' in China.

Nasar Faizy Koodathai warned the Muslim community to 'beware' of such incidents and said that the community should remain vigilant about the CPM’s 'tactics with the label of secularism'.
