party's tussle


unfortunately,the organised,disciplined communist party of india is now barely displaying the rift within them over the issue of party's debacle in the 2009 loksabha election.instead of coming together & facing the charges and submitting themselves to the public grievances (which they have given birth to),the party men are now indulging themselves in the game of passing the ball of blame from one's court to another.will that really help when its the team that has faced the rout?

the major probable reasons of their defeat that the party must not overlook now[atleast] and should go into assessing every nook & cranny of it are:
alienation from masses since 2006 approximately,giving up of the basic ideals of marxism,ousting of somnath chatterjee ,abrupt withdrawl of its support from the list of allies of the UPA(on the civilian nuclear deal issue) without being able to reach out the reason behind this action to the masses successfully,inadequate propagation of the demerits of the nuclear deal,the agony and the harrowing time span with the forward block triggering disunity within the party,party's excesses in nandigram,singur and bullying the population of purulia,medinipur areas by arm powers,on the contrary the poor act of resilience and reluctance of handling some serious matters [like the nano project in singur,claim for gorkhaland in darjeeling,innumerable bandhs and call for illegal road blockades in the state by the oppositions] with brain and brawn togetherly,the brinkmanship of karat etc.they failed in gaining the popular support (as is evident from the very recent polls outcome) because they deployed force to tackle the situation where it was unnecessary and could have been dealt with diplomacy,but in places where the situation demanded ruthless action to mitigate the actions of the oppositions,they and their police kept mum.this evidently displays a 'weak' governance and above all the wrongfully enacted party policies.but now,as the elections are over,what is more dissapointing is,instead of surgical removal of flaws within (after thorough scrutiny),they are now ready with daggers drawn at each other.

I'm no fan of CPI(M), quite the contrary, but for all their faults (ideological and otherwise), I'd still back them over Mamata Bannerjee. That woman is unstable and a political menace.

but hopefully, CPI(M) will get their act together soon.
