Naxalites experiencing widening support ? I would strongly counter that view..
If you look at Andrha Pradesh, they have been routed from there.. these people
survive by the barrel of the gun, and by terrorizing innocent people in
far-fetched villages.. if they believe that India can be conquered without
democratic processes and purely by military means, what can one say ? If one
takes the case of Bengal, the support for these infantiles is coming right from
the right-wing Mamta Banerjee and such other anarchist forces.. one can get a
sense of the opportunism involved in such tactics..
Of course, a dialogue is welcome.. but we seem to be getting staples from
single-agenda anti-CPI(M) lobbies like Sanhati..

I'm generally sympathetic to the CPI-M, but it's important that any analysis
of the Naxalites focus on why they are experiencing widening support.
Marginalization, corruption, landlordism, caste discrimination and the very
painful processes of urbanization and proletarianization.
Seems to me that you seem unwilling to do this or engage comrades in
substantiative discussion on these topics.
