out of all peple in indias left its karat who says this. If he had listened to Somnath Chaterjee, he would have gotten enlightened long back, so why did karat and co throw him out of the party ? any answers Mr Karat ?
you kept Kolkaatta still 1940,it is shame for the indian communist party even after ruling so many yrs they not achived any thing better in the development of WB and in kerla at least in kerala people went out of stat and getting income to their fmly and to the state ,where as in WB the condition of Kolkatta very well reflected in Kolkatta streets
Mr.Karat opened his heart. But the truth is hidden some where. Recall the first communist govt (first in the world) that came to power with free and fair election in 1956 in Kerala. That govt was dismissed by Congress on some flimsy ground, allegedly orchestrated by CIA. Later they penetrate party cadres and finally made the party split. The splinter groups (now around 30) fought every where every time to damage it further. The CIA sow the ‘seeds of differences’ and it grew to destroy the party from within. The CIA is watching with smiles the vanishing of communism in India.
The mistake with the communists in India is their slogan ‘workers of the world unite’. But the workers of other countries did not follow this. They follow the slogan ‘workers of the country unite’ no matter what happened to other countries. Though the ideal preached by Indian communists are far superior it do not have takers from other countries. It is time for Mr Karat and his party to make an introspection and make a deviation. Let them build up an EGO in the cadre. A kind of self-esteem. Let them preach PATRIOTISM to the cadre. The patriotism will unite them. Patriotism will generate more energy for nation building. At the same time never try to destroy our culture that is evolved in course of millenniums. Our culture has in built variables to accommodate different ideologies and to coexist.
Oh he understood it, communist understood it. Yes becasue of acchutanandan!When communisit denaied him the ticket, he started state wide protest in kerala.Karat bent and gives the ticket!.Now they understood the importence of caste! slowly they will understand that of religion!
How is Karat any different ? Has he modified his views on left. The leftist dogmas are as rigid as any religion. I guess after presiding over the demise of the left in India, this guy is doing cya (cover your a....)
Its very evidient, that Marxism will extinct very soon. I will not be surprised the Karat-ear will be the last generation to follow marxism. Hence it will inevitable for the marxist to forge against the present swing of capitalism or mixed economy. One can certiainly see, the present generation in India, give zero importance to marxist ideology. Indirectly, Mr. Karat is infering that the whole marxist philosophy will be extinct in India. This is supported by the statistics in Kerala and West Bengal.
From the manner in which Prakash Karat obstructed all the major decisions of UPA 1, it seemed that of all the commmunists, he was the one who was stuck in the history of the times of Stalin and Mao. Indeed it is surprising that how he is mouthing the truth, that Indian communists are stuck with the ideas of 1940s! Pot calling the kettle black! Until recently, it seemed that Karat was like Napoleon III in the French History, a man who learnt nothing, and forgot nothing. At last, even he too has started learning.

There is one loss though, due to weakening of communist movement. There is no labour movement worth speaking of in India. Managements have become extraordinarily strong, especially in the field of knowledge labour such as BPO and software industry.
the left is actually stuck in 1910s when the communists were killing innocent people. just look at the maoists in east india. the difference now is nobody with half a brain is fooled by communists' camera obsucra any more.
