 HIMAL SOUTHASIAN | September - October 2005   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
The first attempt of that Maoist party to usher in an armed revolution in India, however, was defeated by the time the top CPI-ML ideologue and founder general secretary Majumdar died while in custody in July 1972.
It is important to seek the causes of this failure of mobilisation and inability to keep alive the open mass organisations by defying the official ban.
The failure seems all the more perplexing because the revival of the Naxalite movement came about when the new generation leadership rejected Majumdar’s policy of doing away with mass organisations and did manage to set up massive agricultural poor peasant associations in Andhra, Jharkhand and Bihar.

Others regarded him as a patriot and a true nationalist, as head of a tribal campaign to win political autonomy and a greater share of revenue from Balochistan’s gas reserves, and who at various points in his life butted heads with just about all major leaders in Pakistan, and managed to get away with it.

Naxalbari, May 25: The armed struggle taken up by Maoists in parts of Bengal, Jharkhand, Bihar, Orissa and Andhra Pradesh now is not quite the same as the revolution led by Charu Majumdar in 1967, feels Mahadeb Mukherjee.
For Mukherjee, one of the followers of Majumdar, and now the all-India secretary of the CPI (Marxist-Leninist), today?s movement is completely different from theirs, save the ideology of ?establishing the rule of the proletariat?.
The veteran Naxalite, however, appreciated the Maoists for their courage.

 Interview Given by Mao Tse-tung
At the far end of the communist spectrum revolutionary parliamentarism has been substituted by the complete rejection of any use of the parliamentary tactic in the name of armed struggle and people’s war.
Historically the name of Charu Majumdar, the founding leader of CPI (ML), has been identified with this standpoint while today the CPI (Maoist) upholds this position formally.
A number of communist revolutionary organisations have in the decades since the 1970s correctly rejected both of these positions and have stressed the need to utilise parliamentarism in a period when the masses have been relatively quiescent.
