| Dear Sudarsanam garu,I like to answer the last point raised by you first- you wrote that in today's politics there is no ideology but only individuals.. this reminds me of the end of ideology 'theory' brought forward by some western ideologues like Francis Fukuyama after the collapse of the Soviet Union. But within a span of not more than a decade and half the ideology, particularly the communist ideology is back on the stage..Marx was named as the greatest thinker of the millenium in the year 2000 in a survey conducted by BBC..the talk about class and class based politics occupies the central place even in the citadel of capitalism i.e USA..Latin America turns decisively red in the backyard of USA..here in this context I sincerely request you to see the small pamphlet by Karl Marx and Engels i.e 'The Communist Manifesto' to find the relevance of Marxist ideology in the present day world.. even in India the stand taken by the communist parties (against American imperialism, Against Religious fundamentalism etc..etc) clearly vindicates that there is a clear cut ideology playing a role in the politics of those parties.. So I like to emphasize that the concept of end of ideology is convenient and suitable for the exploitative class to cover its intensified exploitation of the common masses- but it does't fit into the interests of the people like you and me...
Regarding the other issue raised by you as to the 'possesiveness' of me in the question of the criticism of the Communist parties- no sir, I am absolutely not against the criticism that is based upon strong premises & facts , but not the conclusions drawn on the basis of guesswork and not based on solid evidence..for that matter I like to vow before the readers that I am one of the critics doing the job of being a constructive critic in the matters pertainig to the communist parties..you could refer my last article in TP or else many articles written on those issues in various dailies in the past..Communist politics and philosophy are based upon- criticism and self-criticism..which alone keeps those parties alive and vigorous..and allows them to grow in their inner strength ..against all the odds in an exploitavive society..it is not only the mainstream dailies that published my articles in such matters..i feel proud and happy in telling that communist dailies even spared space liberally to such self-critical articles..i feel I should not go too far in this matter, because it involves too much talk about my Individual role in doing the communist duties..but I hope it makes the point clear to you..criticism-self-criticism with a solid foundation of facts and evidence--the conclusions ultimately drawn upon that foundation may vary from individual to individual- the proof or refutation of which can be arrived only in the future i.e the history..which will testify only the truthfull and rigourously scientific in their opinions...
yours sincerely with regards,
D.Paparao

Dear Devabhaktuni, I remember your criticism of communist parties in your recent columns. Seems that you are a committed communist and developed a sort of possessive mentality. If you criticise communists, it os OK... and you wont allow others to point their fingers towards comrades... This is not fair on your part. You may be talking about ideologies, but in today's politics it is only individuals... no idealogy... nothing. be cool.

Ever since the rajya sabha seat was announced in favor of the CPI, the gossip mill is working day in and day out -and was producing amazing stories..I am sad that the author also became a part of this rumour mill. The name of the column underwhich this feature is written is not in itself a justification for producing output, that could not be substantiated by authentic basis in the form of the statements given either by the CPI or any of its leaders-if you see this entire article there was none of the sort of conclusive evidence that could be relied upon. My sincere belief is that the author could make any number of conclusions as long as the premises on which those conclusions are dependent upon were authentic..
Even if we want to believe or else there is an element of truth in the authors story- we should not forget that communist parties work on the basis of the collective spirit-but it does't mean that personalities don't count -this dialectic of the individual and the collective is the true spirit of the communist parties unlike the bourgeoise parties, where in the only counting factor is the individual in most of the cases.
Lot of stories are being produced about the inner party struggles of the Russian communist party (Bolshevik) since the days of Vladimir Lenin to the final collapse of the communist rule in USSR. So is the case with the Chinese communist party led by Mao.But that does't always mean there is no collective spirit in the party. What I want to elucidate through these insatnces is the fact of the inevitable internal contradictions in any communist party ..moreover communists are born into the exploitative society of course which they want to change.. so they carry the birth marks of that society and its weaknesses..the party principle for the communists is criticism and self-criticism to overcome these weaknesses..if a communist does't do this it is only at his peril i.e the rejection by the class -of which the party is the vanguard..
Regarding the point raised in one of the comments- that attributed surrender to the CPI before the Congress at the centre..I want to remind the recent instance of the uncompromising stand of the communists in case of Iran-and the meek surrendering of the major opposition party i.e the BJP in this matter..

Looks like nobody is 'hearing' this stuff..
No comments for a while!
I guess most people in TP are not interested in politics, am I right?
