at present,Most studies of the cpim relate its transition from opposition -collaboration to instituionalisation(a continuation of undivided cpi’s political activities).But,cpim says that its new role in politics of their citadels.party and government has to be much more sensitive to development.New governance of the party in its dominant states draws up new industrialisation agenda.Earlier,rule and struggle tactics is no longer possible really,in 1957itself,the undivided cpi’s open invitation to big industrialist like birla had given a big shock to the radical intelligentsia of india(economic weekly’s editorial).now,land redistribution agenda is in the back seat .rather t he plantation sector and the powerful middle class of ruurban kerala has been a powerful block against any land redistribution in kerala. The way out is an aggressive model of industrialisation bypassing the subaltern’s minimum survival opportunities.For the last fifty years,the parliamentary privileges of state-party system of indian liberal democracy has accommodated and domesticated(a term given by late arvind n.das) this left in its citadels.one of the indian liberal democracy’s best institutional building is this left establishment.It has to give discipline/punishment to its subaltern society
