Sharkskin analysis: Naxalbari to Wewelsburg

It was 1967, when Communist Party of India (Marxist) won a good number of seats (~5% vote) in assembly elections and decided to part of government. Chief misters of Kerala and Bengal (Mr. EMS Namboodiripad and Mr. Ajoy Mukherjee) was their own / supported candidates.

The Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution of China was a violent mass movement that resulted in social, political, and economic upheaval in the People’s Republic of China. Mao Zedong (Mao Tse-tung) had launched this movement. According to Mao Tse-tung liberal middle class elements were permeating they party and society at large and they want to restore capitalism. Mao insisted that these elements (liberal middle class) should be removed through evolutionary violent class struggle. Mao used China’s youth for this purpose and formed Red Guard group.

1967, communist party won good number of seats in assembly election. A section of leaders (particularly from West Bengal, Orissa, AP & Kerala) opposed the idea. They were influenced with Mao’s revolution and ideology. The government did not last long. A period of uncertainty began. The leaders who were opposing formation of government found this as victory of their thoughts. They were all ready to go with line shown by China that time. Finally it happened. Kannu Sanyal and Jangal santhal initiate a voice from Brngal. Nagbhushan Patnaik (Orissa), Ganpat Patro (Orissa), Vempatapu Satyam (A.P), Panchadi Krishnamurthy (A.P), Kunnikal Narayan (Kerala), Daughter Ajitha (Kerala) also run similar movement in respective states. Most of leaders went underground and some were jailed.

1969 election, CPI (M) & allies were swept. In 1969, May Day Kanu Sanyal announced the birth of a new party CPI (Marxist-Leninist), in Calculla. Kanu Sanyal . Calcullta was in Red those days. City was flooded with Maoist literature. Presidency College was the hub of student activism. Che Guevera beard and Jhola were trademark. Students were keep disappearing from colleges those days. They become part of the movement. “Class enemies” was an often seen phrase.

Early 1970 was truculent period of this movement “armed revolution’. “People’s Court” gave summary judgments. Landlords, rich men moved to bigger & safer cities. Pockets of “liberated areas” sprung up.

This was also the period when the State used its heavy hand the heaviest way. "Encounters" became the order of the day in West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh and Orissa. Meanwhile, the movement also antagonised many sections of society since innocent policemen and their families were targeted. For some, Naxalism was also a handy tool to settle old scores.

Sooner or later naxalite leaders were in jail for long term and naxalism become weaker. According to that time leaders Naxalism was raised due to socio-economic inequity, political corruption, mounting unemployment and rising prices.

Current scenario
Naxalism is becoming a violent movement against government machinery. Leader of current naxalism are miss leading unemployed civilian of undeveloped areas. These young civilian are choosing this ultra movement to
1. To settle own scores,
2. Earning
3. Influence by collogues, friend
4. To settle own issues with landlord, rich people, government
5. Illiteracy

Current leaders are spoofing innocent tribal, poor and remote villagers to fulfill their own ambitions. This movement is becoming an ultra (like terrorism) movement. These rebels are using sophisticated weapons; they have their own cores, grade systems etc.

Today there is no defined separation between naxalite groups. These are working under one umbrella. Orissa, Chhattisgarh, AP, Bengal, Jharkhand belt is most affected belt of this problem.

Reasons:
1. Social:
2. Economical:
3. International:

Social:
Difference between rich and poor is increasing. Just imagine and compare between a family who is living in metro and a family who is living in a village in any village of this area.
Political parties are doing politics on basis of cast, creeds, bla bla bla… it provoke a particular section of society to react.
Amateur resistance and support to anti naxal parties / group. Salwa Judum, Ranveer Sena was amateur and insufficient resistance for Naxalites. These kinds of movements have given chance to Naxalite as net practice and they become stronger.

Economical:
The naxal affected belt is poor w.r.t. agriculture and development. Due to less productivity and increasing population, resources have become insufficient. Result: Poverty, un-satisfaction, illiteracy

International:
Economics reformation has give develop countries in various fields. All metros and major areas have become bigger and prosperous. Compare Bangalore 20 years before and today. Cities like NOIDA, Hyderabad, Pune and Gurgaon have become hotspot. Government has also promoted industrialization. Everything is going good. But what about these states (Naxal affected areas). Did they get anything? I think, no or very nominal.

China, who is finding India as biggest competitor become worry with India’s growth. Internal disturbances, uncertainty, government resource utilization to tackle these kinds of problem, all are in favor of China. By this he can divert our growth path. He started support these ultra movement followers.

On Technical ground:
Communism is mo more popular in its own origin countries, than why it is upcoming in India. Is it communism or any form of communism? I do not think so. It is just a barbarism.

These ultra movement followers are not raising their concerns on political forum. Why? Are their leader fulfilling theirs own ambitions?

Actual solution for this problem (and for this movement was started) to give fair part of growth to people of this area also. This area should also be developed. The people of this area should live their life with prosperity. But if these people (naxalite) will keep this area as disturbed area than how development (either government or public/private) possible?

Few Questions to Naxal movement followers:
• Are you really following actual naxal movement?
• Do you really want this area develop?
• Do you really want pride and prosperity for people of this area?
• Do you think by demolishing government properties / systems, you can come up with any solution?
• Do you really want solution of this problem?

Few Questions to Govenrment agencies:
• Noida: Land rate 84 lac / acre
Chhattisgarh: land rate 50 thousand / acre
Why?
• Noida, Delhi, Jaipur, Chandigarh, Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad, Gurgaon
Do you name similar city in this area?
• How many women representing in assembly from this region?
• Do you have any reservation policy based on economical ground?

This violent movement which was begun from Naxalbari is going toward Wewelsburg; and Wewelsburg will down soon.
