You left the party on similar charges and because of your post-mordern shift. For your ultra-left friends (alas! they are not many), CPI(M) has been a “fascist”, “social(!!) fascist” and “semi-fascist” party from the days of Charu Majumdar and Kanu Sanyal and Naxalbari. For your right-wing allies, CPI(M)and undevided Communist Party have always been considered as traitors and enemies of Bharatavarsha.

For whatever reasons you may be against Mamta Banerji, but whatever you are saying is being said by her for years. Despite her histronics, people of Bengal have rallied themselves under the banner of the Left Front led by CPI(M).

I think you are only using this issue to target CPI(M) because you had to leave the party years ago and you want to see it defeated. I would like to suggest you to refer to the speech of Prof Randhir Singh(Guru Tegbahadur Kalsa College, August 2007). I remind you that Prof Singh is not from the CPI(M).

if you are really worried about Mamta Banerji’s politics, please tell your ultra friends not to ally with her against CPI(M).

Anyway, I am excited about the proposed “alternative left”. It would be no less than a miracle to see hundreds of parties (with ‘ML’ tagged to each of them) under one leadership.

One last thing, why your proposal is for Bengal only, not for the other states and the centre? Do you think other governments are governments of “alternative left”?

I do not however understand your contradictions. Or perhaps I understand your contractions through your anxieties. Your write-up is so tellingly split. I wonder if it is a symptom of the times we are living with and living through. Nandigram is a colossal tragedy – ideologically, administratively and in terms of real politic. It has spawned existential crises for the likes of you and, if you allow, me.

That’s a gross over-estimation. Nothing will happen as long there is someone consistently moronic as Mamata Banerjee. The problem is with the notion of the chariot, not who rides it. What about considering stateless societies? Well, here in West Bengal, as a journalist correctly pointed out, we’re already having one on the reverse gear— the state has withered away in Nandigram.[:P]
