		Harkishan Singh Surjeet stepped down from the post of general secretary of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) after an uninterrupted 13-year-long stint, at the 18th congress of the party.
		Surjeet's tenure, in his own words, marked one of the most trying periods for the CPI(M) after its formation in 1964.
		Surjeet himself refuses to take any credit for turning around the country's contemporary history, but delegates at the congress acknowledged the 89-year-old leader's political career spanning seven decades by hailing him as a "living legend".

	AN UPBEAT LEFT
		In the words of veteran CPI(M) leader Harkishan Singh Surjeet, the Hyderabad congress was held in "such a situation that the rightist politics of hate and communalism that began to gather strength at the turn of the 1990s had acquired a disturbing legitimacy on the national scene".
		Commenting on these failures, Surjeet pointed out there were several factors that contributed to the non-realisation of earlier initiatives, principal among them being the rise of communal and casteist politics since the late 1980s.
		Surjeet was of the view that the organisational report adopted at the congress as well as the changes brought about in the organisational structure would greatly help the CPI(M)'s new initiatives.
