I remember, in one of the towns in Bengal, the CPIM started rebuilding a major road just before the polling there. They stopped halfway and told the people that the other half will be built only if CPIM contestant from that area wins in the Lok Sabha elections. They also warned, that if he looses, then they will dig even the portion that was built. Right now the road is in shambles, many accidents have occured int he night, and the road itself is awaiting the poll results.
Mr. Prakash Karat and his fellow comrades are trying to protect China's interest by opposing the Indo-US nuclear deal. Why are they silent when China claim "Arunachal is a part of China" or when China sets up nuclear power platns in Pakistan. They are shameless antinationals and should be kicked out not only from Bengal but from the whole country.

This is report of Planning Commission....J&K is shown like that may for International political reason.
THE PARTY FUND HAS GROWN IN EXPONENTIAL TERMS AND THE UNEMPLOYEMNT IS HIGH - ONLY 77 LAKS REGD UMEMPLOYED- MAY BE ANOTHER 1 CRORE UNREGISTERED
55K INDUSTRIES CLOSED - DUE TO RED FLAGS
OF THESE 3000 ARE IN BIFR AND HENCE THE LEFT SAYS THAT ONLY 3000 ARE CLOSED BUT THEY CONVENIENTLY FORGET TO MENTION THAT SMALL AND MEDIUM INDUSTRIES WHICH HAD EMPLOYEES BELOW 50 CANNOT GO TO BIFR AND HENCE THEY DO NOT COUNT THEM.
THE LEFT IS EXPERT IN MISREPRESENTING FACTS TO THE PEOPLE OF BENGAL

Dear RP
add kerala also to this wagon. The state being destroyed by communist. They think intellectual ,but act anti development.
They opposed Computeriastion, by which all other neighbouring states developed. They opposed mechanisation of Farming, for which we paid in last season.Later they came forward infavour. The party,s policy is above relegion., but the most noted candidated Mr Hussain and Ms Sindhu joy declared openly their preferences and loyality to relegion, in media. They opposed ADB loan and the then Oppsition leadr Mr VS declared that he will slap the IAS officials and show them the door steps. But as CM he welcomed and took ADB loan. You know only people in world who takes money for doing nothing is Nokkukooli., i meann payment for watching. You need to pay labour union for watching the work done by Machines.( all unions not only CPM). They can not materialise any project in time like Vallarpadam, Vizhinjam, Road development works , nothing. In keral they proved worthy only to be in opposition, but not for administarion. Road traffic, you will hardly find a serious effort from the Police other than chasing two wheelers for Helmet. All one ways are open bith side., no body obeys signals. etc MLA., and MPs rule police station, gate crash for releasing party members taken for custody.
So many., people are fed up but afraid of their Muscle power
I am a Bengali and staunch communist.In bengal my family's votes numbering 19 is called block vote for CPIM.But this time things are changing.It is not that opposition has done good work or we become pro-congress and pro Trinamool.It is a protest against CPIM cadres.This party men r controlling the society and eating fruits of development bourne to general people.Sometime it seems that they r doing charity by providing a tubewell in the community.All the things which r nurtured by our taxes r not for us.It seems that those r for the cadres and their relatives.Tax has become gundatax to keep those cadres.Earlier those ranks are filled up by teachers,Doctors,Lawyears and well educated community members.But nowadays it is polluted by halfeducated/uneducated unemployed men and thugs and goons.They know nothing about people and busy looting money by showing their red flags.This way CPIM fast losing it's base. This time anti cadre silent voting will be a big factor.Left front in WB this time win only 22 seats or less.Such lesson is needed for them to make themselves better in 2011,Rajyasabha Election.

I don't agree!! This type of hate speach will make our nation like Pakistan!! All party has good sides and bad side, but that never means that any all the people of non-bengali are bad!! Try to under stand why India is not Pakistan!!

Hello my friend! Me too from West Bengal. I appreciate your ideas and as a good citizen of a society, it is our responsibility to make sure that bad peoples are our of power. The only way we can do that is switching the party in power on every 5 years. But unfortunately people of west bengal blindly voted for west bengal and the result!! you can see the position of west bengal in india!! This is the state where most of the scholars of India was born in past. There was a proverb that, What West benagl thinks today, India thinks tomorrow. But i think these left party has destroed our Bengali traditions and puts us in far lower place than Bihar!! The sooner we understand the better for our bengali society!!

have you gone mad? how can we imagine the India with the PM who dont know English. How can she represent INDIA internationally??
Prakash Karat is a hardliner, he has to think what is the position of West Bengal among other states of India after the rule of Left Parties for 4 decades. Kuch to sharam aani chahiye in leaders ko.

Well said, but plz. keep in mind these people are shameless. I know many people who are settled in US, enjoying the lifestyle there but still supports CPM, Communists are the biggest hypocrites in India.
Re: KARAT, A HARDLINER
by Arun on May 11, 2009 10:15 AM
see the Parichay comments. 10 more state has more BPL compate to WB.15 More state has more BPL compare to Kerala.Even Karnataka IT State in world is more BPL people compare to WB and Kerala. Anybody can blame others but analys the factor. and one more Leaders are coming from the soceity not from heaven or air. Who is supporting the good politician everybody is blaming only. See this time Mr.Lalu may not win even he proved he is a good administrator and Mr.Soran will win. That is Indian politics and Great Indian's action in election
Re: Re: KARAT, A HARDLINER
by debasish on May 11, 2009 10:24 AM
BPL is not the only parameter to judge the development of a state. I am a bengali who suffered with crores of others when Jyoti Basu took out English from WBengal board curriculum. All my friends who are educeted are leaving outside bengal as there is no job after 32 years of left rule. The decline of Bengal under left rule in terms of education and industry is unprecedented at least in Indian history.
Re: Re: KARAT, A HARDLINER
by master on May 11, 2009 10:21 AM
CPM only shows manipulated statistics. This is one of the most nasty trick they play. In reality if you go WB, you will see the pathetic situation in Health, education (up to 12h, students are much behind bihar..) and overall quality of leading life... abosolutely hoepless. One e.g. is recent four stroke auto... it has not yet changed... God save this state
Mr. Karat be ready to go for a bath in bay of Bengal this time. People of Bengal has matured your party!! Enough is Enough!! All your party leaders and caders in West Bengal have become rich and richer day by day, by robbing people of west bengal. People will teach your party a leassen this time. Be ready to be satisfied with 5 - 10 seats this time.
I think, we are all over-estimating Mamata's capacity to defeat the left in its bastion. I dont agree with the economic policies of Left. But a rule by Mamata is something unimaginable and where she will take a sinking state like WB. She will turn out to be another Mayavati. Her ego itself will result in her down fall. Left is still strong in WB and while I seek its replacement, it certainly should not be either Mamata or Congress. Left may get a reduced share because of Mamata's land politics, but will still take the largest contingent of MPs to the centre. Parameswaran

I think this is O.K.Left should get seats but there should be balance like.22-20,24-18 something like that.
Re: Bengal and Left
by ramoo prasad on May 11, 2009 09:35 AM
you are highly biased and will be proven wrong - let may 16 the day of reckoning come. MAMATA IS BEING SEEN AS THE SAVIOUR OF THE POOR IN RURAL BENGAL- SHE MAY LOSE SOME VOTES IN URBAN BENGAL BUT WHE WILL MORE THAN MAKE UP IN RURAL BENGAL EXPECIALLY SINCE THE LEFTS RIGGING MACHINERY HAS BEEN THWARTED BY ITS OWN DISGRUNTLED MEN
RIGGING IS THE MAIN FACTOR IN LEFT WINS IN BENGAL
NOW THAT IS ALSO NOT AS MUCH AS IT WAS EARLIER.
BUT WE WILL HAVE VIOLENCE ON 13TH AS THE CPM IS DESPERATE
Re: Re: Bengal and Left
by Sunita on May 11, 2009 09:41 AM
Completely agree!! People of West Bengal give left 32 years, but we never give Mamata a chance!! What Mamata is doing is the language the left party caders understand!! i think she is doing the right think. You have to worship a god with the flower he likes and understand!! She is the most honest politician i ever seen.
Re: Re: Re: Bengal and Left
by Tirthankar Ghosh on May 11, 2009 09:54 AM
I completely agree with Sunita. Honesty and simplicity are two very strong points in Mamata's life. She had one issue earlier... that is the political maturity. But nowadays, she is showing all signs of that.
Re: Re: Bengal and Left
by parameswaran K on May 11, 2009 09:46 AM
I am certainly for replacement of Left. What will happen if Mamata comes to power. The industrialist community will run away from WB and the state will be doomed for ever. All said done, Budhadev was only trying to rectify the errors of Left for the past 30 years and this effort perhaps is going to cost his party dearly. I am of the opinion that only the Left can undo the damage it has done to WB durig their 30 years rule. Mamata surely is not the answer for this nor is the Congress. Mindset of the people of WB will not permit BJP to come to power. So what is the choice? WB has no future and as Rajiv said once (this is the only area where I concur with congress) that Kolkata is a dead city. There is a saying that people get what they deserve and Bengal is a typical example of this saying. Parameswaran
Re: Re: Re: Bengal and Left
by Tirthankar Ghosh on May 11, 2009 10:00 AM
Majority of the educaated people of WB are left minded....pro-left. But unfortunately our left front has misused their power and our trust totally. Mamata can do no more damage than caused by this left front government. People here are looking for a change and apart from Mamata, there is no candidate even. And this will give the left a space to regroup themselves as a bunch of honest party workers. In case situation demands, people of WB will be happy to bring the new left to power.
Re: Bengal and Left

You are not aware about the polling environment this time in west bengal. People are ready to give Lalu prasad a chance but not left again!!
Re: Re: Bengal and Left
by Arun on May 11, 2009 10:22 AM
Your comment showing how people thinking wrongly. I am not conidering left in WB. But you are comparing with Lalu. See Mr.Lalu proved he is a good administrator and made Railway a 25K Crore profitable one. Think if this is done by a MNC CEO how much he will get as performance bonus. Are you thinking Mr.Lalu looted more than that from state. I am a pro left but if I get a chance I will vote to Mr.Lalu. We need like that politicians
