As India gears up for the Lok Sabha elections 2024, the Communist Party of India (Marxist), or CPI(M), stands at a crucial juncture in its political journey. With a history deeply rooted in the country's socialist and communist movements, the CPI(M) continues to advocate for leftist principles and policies, aiming to provide an alternative to mainstream politics dominated by centrist and right-wing parties.
Founded in 1964, the CPI(M) emerged from a split within the Communist Party of India (CPI) over ideological differences, particularly regarding the party's approach towards parliamentary democracy and armed struggle. Since then, the CPI(M) has positioned itself as the vanguard of the Indian working class, championing the cause of socialism, secularism, and social justice.
The CPI(M) has consistently advocated for policies aimed at addressing socio-economic inequalities, promoting rural development, and protecting the rights of workers and marginalized communities. In the run-up to the Lok Sabha elections 2024, the party is expected to focus on issues such as agrarian reform, job creation, healthcare, and education.
