COMMUNIST PARTY OF INDIA(MAOIST) CENTRAL COMMITTEE
Press Release Full Text
Down with the shameful betrayal and surrender of Jinugu Narasinha Reddy!
Long live the revolutionary tradition of uncompromising struggle and selfless sacrifice!
The revolution will surge forward sweeping aside all kinds of much on its path!
Jinugu
Narasimha Reddy(Jhampanna, Rajesh), a member of the Central
Committee(CC) of our party, has surrendered before the enemy. He had
already lost confidence in the invincibility of the proletarian
ideology, the Maoist party, the Protracted Peopleʹs War, the
revolutionary movement and the oppressed masses. Unable to face the new
and difficult conditions of class struggle brought by objectives changes
and the enemyʹs intensifying all-round offensive, he chose the most
selfish, heinous and cowardly path of desertion and shamelessly knelt
down before the enemy. This is an outright betrayal of the Indian
proletarist, its vanguard Party, the Indian revolution and the heroic
struggle of the countryʹs toiling masses. It is an affront on the
sacrifice of thousands of revolutionary martyrs who have selflessly laid
down their lives fighting the same class enemy whom Rajesh has now so
shameleslly embraced. With this, his three decades of political life in
the revolutinary movement has come to an ignominious end. Our CC
condemns his betrayal in strongest terms and appeals to the rank and
file of Party, the entire revolutionary camp, the vast struggling masses
and the friends of the Indian revolution to reject outright such
renegades and their abominable path of surrender. Undeterred by the
degenaration and fall of Narasimha Reddy, our CC firmly and
unambiguously renews its pledge to resolutely carry forward the greed
red banner of class struggle in pursuance of our Partyʹs immediate and
ultimate aims.
Narasimha Reddy had joined the movement in the early 1980s,
when he was working in factory as a technician in Hyderabad city. He
later became a professional revolutionary and was sent by the Party to
work as a guerilla squad member in Eturunagaram forest area of Warangal
district. Subsequently, he developed to a squad commander, Area
committee Member, District Committee member and District Committee
Secretary in the period between 1986 and 1995. North Telangana Special
Zonal Committee(NTSZC) was formed in 1995 with a plan to develop the
guerillla war to a higher level in that zone. He was elected to the
NTSZC in its first conference held that year. In 2000, he became the
Secretary of NTSZC and continued to work in this capacity till 2007. He
was elected to the CC in 2001 and worked as a CCM in North Telangana
between 2001 and 2007. He was co-opted to CMC in 2007 and worked in
North Telangana and some other parts of the Central Region. He was
transferred to Odisha in 2011 where he continued to work till the end of
2016. For the last one year he was deeply submerged in ideoligical and
political vacillation and finally informed the concerned CCMs in
November 2017 about his decision to surrender.
It is true that
Narsimha Reddy had particpated in the revoltionary movement for a
relatively long period of over three decades and developed politically
to become a member of its highest leading committee, the CC,
contributing to the movement in the process. But at the same time, he
also had several serious weaknesses, limitations and non-proletarian
trends like individualism, bureaucracy and false prestige that continued
throughout his political life.
Comrades who worked with him in the
guerillla squad and the Party committees or the leadership comrades
continuously struggled against these negative aspects of his all this
time. The concerned committees put efforts at every step to rectify him
and he too accepted many of the
criticism in one way or another. But
his weaknesses, mistakes and limitations had persisted. Particularly in
the last few years, these negative aspects got magnified and finally
became dominant under the present difficult condition of the Party and
the movement. The terror of the enemy had so overtaken him that he could
no longer fulfil the tasks given to him by Party. He refused to attend
important meetings with the excuse of probable enemy attacks even though
other comrades in a similar situation shared such unfounded
apprehension. Apart from comrades in highet committees, his protection
comrades too criticised his panicky behaviour and defeatism. The
prevailing conditions and enemyʹs serious offensive demand that the
leadership comrades of the Party at the high level remain firm and
confident in the battlefield and courageously safeguard themselves as an
inseperble part of safeguarding the Party, PLGA and the movement.
This
has to be done in all spheres of revolutionary work including in the
military sphere. But as a CCM, Narasimha Reddy failed to live up to the
higher level of responsibilities and tasks given him by the Party
displaying heightened political consciousness, preparedness, courage,
discipline, selfless sacrifice, self-critical attitude and other
leadership qualities.
Our CC reviewed Narasimha Reddyʹs work in
view of his persistent weakness and limitations that had reached a
serious level. The CC concluded that he was seriously bogged down by
subjectivesm, resulting in his overestimation of the enemy and
underestimation of the revolutionary movement and the people. He had
lost his bearing and sense of proportion, became incapable of analysing
the objective situation as a member of the Partyʹs leading committee,
repeatedly followed wrong organisational method and utterly failed to
fulfil important responsibilties he was entrusted with. This was in
addition to his long-standing weakness of imposing his subjective and
individualistic thinking on Party committees. It had become a habit for
him to bring up disputes and illogical debates on individual problems in
a sectarian and arbitrary way, violating democratic centralism and
proletarian discipine. Sometimes he created deadlock in the functioning
of the concerned Party committee and threatened to boycott some meetings
when criticised by other comrades. Due to his anti-organisational
behaviour and functioning, he gradually lost the confidence of his
comrades and became isolated. All these wrong traits were criticised by
the comrades of the concerned Party committees on several occasions with
the aim of helping him rectify his mistakes and weaknesses on the basis
of unity-struggle-unity. But he failed to recognise the gravity of his
negative aspects, stubbornly refused to take a self-critical attitude,
failed to remould his world outlook in the light of
Marxism-Leninism-Maoism. This not only led to his downfall but also
caused much damage to the Party.
Taking all
this into consideration, our CC decided to suspend Narasimha Reddy from
the CC for two years earlier this year with hope that he would
acknowledge his mistakes and weaknesses and seriously put efforts to
rectify with the help of his comrades. However, he neither accepted this
decision positively nor did he undertake any self-criticsm at all. He
also refused to take up responsibility of a State Committee Member the
CC had assigned him. Overcome by petty-bourgeois false prestige and
selfish narrow-mindedness, he refused to submit to the Partyʹs decision,
declined to struggle against the non-proletarian traits present in him
and failed to remould himself into a thoroughgoing communist
revolutionary. Rather than humbly serving the revolution and the people
with bowed head, he deemed it better to surrender and survive as a dirty
creature at the service of enemy. In this way, the transformation of a
revolutionary into an unrepentant and diehard betrayer and scoundral was
complete.
Whenever CC had taken the suspension decision on him,
he had raised the political differences with partl line. He was
discussed that "Now India is not semi feudal - semi colonial country, it
is transformed into capitalist country". Thus our party line should
change according to conditions and party would take insurrection line in
Indian latest conditions. These political differences are nothing but,
cover up his degeneration.
All revolutions pass
through twists turns, ups and downs and diffcult situations. It is only
by boldly tiding over such challenges that a proletarian party gets
steeled and acquires the capability to lead the revolution to victory.
In periods like this, it becomes all the more necessary for all
communists - particularly those who join the Communist Party from
non-proletarian classes - to deepen their ideological and political
understanding, to remould themselves by adopting the proletarian world
outlook and to firmly stick to it. They need to more resolutely apply
the principle democratic centralism, abide by the iron discipline of the
Pary, more closely integrate with the comrades and the people, learn
from practices, rectify their mistakes, fight self, serve the people
selflessly and stand at forefront of struggle so as to remain a
committed revoltunionary till the very end. But there are always those
who fail in such testing times. History shows that it is quite common
for a handful of individuals who do not remould themselves and who are
not prepared for sacrifice to distance themselves from the movement at
such crucial junctures, giving foremost priority to their own survival.
They desert the revolutionary camp and at times become
counter-revolutionaries serving the enemy. Narasimha Reddy presents a
glaring negative example of a revolutionary who stopped integrating with
the cadres and the masses, stopped struggling against his weaknesses
and became overawed by the enemy. Panic-stricken, they pathetically
prostrate before the class enemy and thereby end their usefulness for
the people with their own hands. The revolution will discard such people
as waste material and throw them out from time to time in the process
of class struggle.
It
should not be surprising if such
despicable individuals start singing in the tune of the enemy and cast
aspersions on the Party, its leadership, the revolutionary movement and
the future of the Indian revolution. Propped up by the enemy, they may
appear before the people in new avatars as (pseudo) ʹintellectualsʹ,
ʹjournalistsʹ, ʹsocial workersʹ, etc. with sole aim of harming the Party
and the revolution. Our comrades, friends and well-wishers of the
Indian revolution should remain alert to such eventualities and give
befitting response to them. Knowing them to be a part of the enemyʹs
Goebbelsian propoganda machine, the class-conscious toiling masses
should throw the claptrap of such traitors into the scrapheap.
In total contrast to the traitors and renegades, every
proletarian revolution brings forward uncompromising communist fighters
who serve the masses till the last breath. Indian revolution too is no
exception, which inherits a long and glorious tradition of selfless
sacrifice by thousands of heroic martyrs. Among them are our beloved
great leaders and cadres like comrades CM and KC, Saroj Dutta, Sushital
Roy Choudhuri, Amulya Sen, Chandrashekhar Das, Krishnamurthy, Satyam,
Kailasham, Appu, Varghese, Biswakarma, Balan, Dinakar, Shyam, Mahesh,
Murali, Karam Singh, Parimal Sen, Sande Rajamouli, Vadkapur
Chandramouli, Anuradha Ghandy, Patel Sudhakar, Cherukuri Rajkumar,
Mallujhola Koteswarlu, Rawoof, Sushil Roy, Sridhar Srinivasan, Kuppu
Devaraj, Narayan Sanyal, Padma, Lalithakka, Urmila, Rajitha, Ajitha,
Saketh Rajan, Maimuddin, Ashish Yadav, Prasad, Daya, Prabhakar, Mangtu,
Shaheeda, RK, Yadanna, Madhav, Mahendar, Mastan Rao, Puli Anjanna,
Kanchan, Sashadhar Mahato, Janardhan, Bhumaiyya-Kista Gaud and thousands
of other martyred comrades, to name a just a few, who remained true to
their commitment to the revolution and the people till the very end.
They are the real heroes of the masses who show us the way.
The desertion, betrayal and the treachery of a few renegades in
the pay-role of the reactionary ruling classes can never stop the
revolution! They may only create some temporary hurdles and inflicit
some temporary damage, but the revolution will sweep all such pests into
their graves and surge forward towards its goal. Led by the proletarian
revolutionaries and inspired by the heroic martyrs, millions upon
millions of the oppressed masses of the country will throw them away
along with their masters into the dustbin of history and achieve final
victory.
