Statement of the Central Committee

All India Conference of CPI( ML) held successfully

The Central Committee of Communist Party of India( Marxist- Leninist) announces that the All India conference of our party has been successfully held.
The prev ious All India Conference was held in 2009 which adopted the fundamental documents of our party. It continued its multifaceted activities basing on these documents. The CC felt that it will help to advance our party’ s activities by reviewing this sevenyear period and also the unity achieved during this period on the basis of these documents.
During this period we have lost our beloved leader and then General Secretary Comrade KanuSanyal. We have also lost many senior comrades in the CC: Comrades Asit Sinha, Masterji, Surendra Singh Katiyar, Umasankar Singh and Shabbar Hussain. With inspiring and lively remembrances of the departed leaders, the CC organized the All India Conference with the aim of consolidating and strengthening the p arty and leadership.
This period witnessed the unbridled implementation of the policies dictated by the imperialist financial Institutions and deceit of people through the so-called democratic process of consulting the people. This period witnessed surrender to US imperialism both politically and militarily with all false assertions of being a world power. This period witnessed an intensified loot of national wealth by the MNCs and amassing of the bureaucratic capital by the Indian big bourgeoisie. This period witnessed the further deterioration of living and working conditions of toiling masses of people and constant erosion of all civil and democratic rights of the people. This p eriod saw the aggravation of exploitation and oppression by the ruling classes and resistance from the people.

The All India Conference has been organized to analyse the complex international and national situation in the light of our basic documents and to formulate the tasks emanates from it.
After hoisting the Red Flag, the General Secretary announced the formation of All India Conference forum. The Conference elected a five member Presidium and a six member Steering Committee.
While discussing the document – International and National situation and Our Tasks – the delegates made many suggestions that enrich it. After vivid description of international situation the document concluded that the contradiction between the imperialism and the oppressed nations and people of the world is not only growing, but continues to be the principal contradiction. It is the principal contradiction because its existence and development affects the existence and development of other contradiction including the contradiction amongst the imperialist powers.
After describing the various aspects of the national situation, the document clearly stated that the land to the tiller has attained more importance today and the struggle for land should be waged along with the struggle against imperialism and big bourgeoisie.
The document noted that semi-fascist or fascist type of measures are being taken by the ruling class parties in order to suppress the peoples’ aspirations, demands, agitations and struggles. The main prop for this semi-fascist repression has been the increasing dominance of finance capital. Everywhere it goes, it unleashes exp loitation, suppression and oppression.
The people are looking for an alternative, but the Communist
Revolutionaries are not in a position to provide leadership to them because of right and left opportunisms, and revisionism and ultra-left sectarianism and adventurism. The oscillation of communist movement in India betw een these tw o harm ful extremes has led to the weakening of the movement and party. It is largely because of the influence of petty bourgeois class which has to be guarded against as our society is at a stage of semi-feudal and semi-colony. So it is the urgent task to build a united single Bolshevik party. This needs an ideological and political struggle against all wrong trends, firmly adhering to the principles with flexible tactics and continuing the process of unity of Communist Revolutionaries. The All India Conference approved the policy of united actions with other political parties and organisations on issues affecting the people, being pursued by the CC. The All India Conf erence adopted a resolution accepting the document along with the many suggestions and amendments made by the delegates.
On behalf of the CC, the General Secretary presented the Political and Organizational Review of the Central Committee. The POR reported the details of our unity ef forts and asked the delegates to discuss deeply the policy of unity adopted by the CC. It pointed out the weaknesses in the functioning of the CC and its members. The delegate comrades have made many suggestions to improve the functioning of the CC collectively.
