In 1942 the CPI adopted a resolution declaring India to be a multi-national state. In 1946, they put forward before the cabinet Mission Plan for division of India into 17 separate sovereign state on the model of the U.S.S.R. By 1947, the communist movement in India had lost whatever it earned in the Indian political scenario. The political position of the CPI was completely destroyed. However according to the historians, the Communists or the Leftist concept of the Proletarian Internationalism could not be reconciled with India's national aspirations. Moreover the basics themes of Marxist communism, "class antagonism" and "violence" were alien to the Indian tradition. Henceforth the Leftist Movement led by the Communists could not make a progressive development in India. |
