Fraternal Messages 

"South Asia is like a Volcano !"

     — CPN (Maoist)

 Fraternal message to the 9th Congress of the CPI (M-L) [People's War]

 (Excerpts From Com. Gaurav's Speech)

 

On behalf of the Communist Party' of Nepal (Maoist) we send revolutionary greetings to the CPI(ML)[PW]. Our two parties are fraternal parties from neighbouring countries. The people of the two countries have close ties, and every event in India, big or small, good or bad, has a direct and big influence on Nepal. When revisionism dominated the Indian communist movement, it had its impact on Nepal's communists. When Coin. Charu Majumdar led the famous Naxalbari movement, resulting in a big struggle against modern revisionism, it also resulted in the Jhapa movement in neighbouring Nepal. Unfortunately the Jhapa comrades degenerated into the UML, taking the parliamentary path.

Today it is we who claim to be the true inheritors of the Jhapa movement. Your Party is the true inheritor of the Naxalbari rebellion. The armed struggle initiated and developed by the PW and the MCC since the 1980s has had a positive impact on our Party and movement. The process of learning from each other is a continuously unfolding process. We are very keen to share your experience and share our experience, which has been gained at the cost of the blood of our comrades.

There is a long history of relations between our two parties. We have had discussions and relations at different levels with constant and regular bilateral meetings and very good fraternal relations. Since 1993 we have learnt from your long experience of armed struggle. Our relations are not only restricted to exchanging views on ideological and political questions, but has covered a vast area and various aspects. Besides both parties have a common enemy in Indian expansionism. A specific feature is also the 60 lakh Nepalies in India. There is a big scope for further and higher level of unit, in future.

There is an integral link between the Indian revolution and the world revolution. We cannot imagine world revolution without the Indian revolution. The CPI(ML)[PW] by leading the Indian revolution, is thereby serving the world revolution in a big way. The PW is the biggest of all Maoist parties in India. But there are other Maoist forces in India like the MCC, CPI(ML) (Naxalbari), RCCI(M), etc. If Maoists call be united in a single Centre it will really become a challenging force. Though the unity of PW and PU is a positive step, it is not enough.

Not only the Maoist parties, hut the revolutionary masses of South Asia, and other parts of the world, would like the Maoists of India to unite. It shocked the hearts of all of them to hear of the clashes between the MCC and PW. Our party together with other units of the RIM made a public call to PW and MCC to refrain from clashes. Both have responded positively and clashes have basically stopped, and we hope they will not be repeated.

We hope, as the biggest party, the PW will intensify, its efforts to unify all Maoists into one Centre. We assure you that our Party is ready to make any contribution in your effort. We hope this Congress will seriously consider this question.

At our second national conference, held just prior to your Congress some important decisions were taken which are important for the international communist movement. The world revolutionary situation has changed in a big way. Imperialism and its lackeys are in deep crisis. Movements are growing throughout the world. It is high time to lake initiative for a new international. Maoists should not let this opportunity slip. We must learn from the experience of the past internationals. Some initiative has been taken by RIM. All of us Maoists have to take further responsibility.

Today South Asia is like a volcano. There are strong people's wars led by Maoists in India and Nepal. There are strong national liberation movements. There is a common enemy in Indian expansionism. There is a long experience of joint struggles, which can effectively serve the world proletarian revolution. A new wave of world proletarian revolutions is on the horizon. It is an urgent task, to intensify efforts to form a new international. We are confident that the 21st century will be a century of the world proletarian revolution.

We hope this Congress will be successful in formulating the correct ideological-political line in:

(a)  leading the New Democratic Revolution in India;

(b)  uniting all Maoist parties and organisations into a single centre;

(c)  as a strong contingent of the world proletariat, advancing the world socialist revolution.

 

Once again we wish this Congress a total and grand success.
