Is left really in the race?
Even as our politicians fight it out for the most coveted seat in India, a question haunts me: can communism actually be a form of government in India?
If it can’t, why then should the left be in the limo hire race in the first place. Like sports why don’t they just give the others a walk over. Now don’t take umbrage, because I’m myself a staunch supporter of the left ideals and at one point of time in college vehemently advocated communism- much before I could sober down and apply myself to mDeals and a much mundane existence.
The closest that India came to having a communist government was when Charu Majumdar, called for a total communist revolution, back in the 70s. I still hero worship that man- our very own answer to flamboyant idealistic revolution. Indian ‘che’ if I could romantically dub it that.
Unlike now, when the differences are slowly being smoothened out (the process will take a lot of time though to finally impact but still) it was a time when the rift between the haves and the have-nots was very prominent like london limo. The society was organized on class lines, on caste lines and the rich were getting richer while the poor were becoming poorer, to use a cliché. ( this was long long before, surrey limo cars and the internet could come into being)
I’ve been told that in parts of Orissa and Bengal, poverty was rampant and whatever the government did, it simply didn’t reach the ones that desperately needed the change. Unemployed, with no means of sustenance and discriminated against, the poor had a champion in Charu Majumdar and his party and trust me they were without any cheap limo cars. They rallied under him and very soon the word “Naxal’ had gained a popularity of it own. Almost every youngster in Presidency college Calcutta with a little leaning to the political thought felt it right to throw in their lot with the left. The same was in Kerala too- and in all other parts where the poor allowed these people to change their lives with their ideas. In 1967 if I’m not mistaken a peasant uprising took place in Naxalbari, led by Kanu Sanyal and Charu Majumdar and so formally the Naxalites were born. It was the first popular uprising that made the government of India take note of the serious implication of the whole affair. And right away they had decided that they will not allow it to happen no matter how many limo berkshire trips they gotta give up. In Assam as a child I have heard horrible stories of police crack down- of young students being tortured to death and the river flowing with blood. In fact almost every house it is said had lost their educated ones: in the form of a son or a brother or a husband.
Now when I see AB Bardhan, and Sitaram Yechuri, all this seems so far- far away. I cannot imagine Prakash Karat or his party workers capable of such a selfless commitment as displayed by people like Kanu Sanyal or Charu, can they let go off their limo bus. I am forced to see the current crop of leftist as people who will stall foreign investment, block a project like Singur, indulge in trade unionism etc etc. I’ve hardly heard stories of their work with the poor. Are there no more poor left in the far flung reaches of India or has it become unfashionable for the left to take up their cause now? Left politics now is only fashionable in places like JNU, in gatherings where people talk about changes- revolutionary changes and equal opportunities for all. Only nothing seems to come of it. In recent times I don’t recollect one single left gathering that rallied selflessly to any cause. There is always infighting and confusion. What is the left agenda now?..and is it relevant actually?
Does the left faction actually have something to offer other than protests? As long as there are people there will be differences, there are people going around in a Middlesex limo and there are those that can’t afford a cycle. Social welfare is not about snatching away a car from the rich because the poor doesn’t have it- it should be more than that I suppose. Merely maintaining a low profile and preaching mediocrity should not be the only left goal. I personally would love to see a left government given full power- only that won’t happen. (Except in Kerala and maybe Bengal) Because then we might be able to see the extent to which they can bring about change. Pity though the left always bungles the opportunity that comes their way in the last moment. I would like to see what the left does if given power apart from driving in their own personal limos: will it be true to the ideals of martyrs like Charu Majumdar or will it satisfy itself with just making some noise at the national level.
Maybe this election will put my doubts to rest. For the moment my web development calls and its much more pressing than who comes to power- after all I still will have to go to the same job and ride the same Metro. That’s why I and many like me are so far away from people like Charu Majumdar and sadly but truly away from limo hampshire as well

Long live revolution!
