may be, we have lost touch with reality.
may be, we are heading a very unpopular govt.
may be, we have alinieated our main constituency. ..namely the working class and agrarian workers and the small peasentry.
may be, 'giving them back in the same coin' was not such a good idea from the home minister himself.
it is high time we realise the support base of the so called tmc goons is pre dominantly the poor. many of them are from our deserted ranks.
there is severe mistrust amongst peasantry about losing their land to the 'capitalists'
i had predicted this result....unfortuna tely.
i had predicted this failed election result would give us an oppurtunity to look within..
i am terribly wrong.
i want to be the devil's advocate to know why is tmc gaining ground.
lets go to the basics...
there is a difference in fighting the sidhartha shankar ray era, the emergency and now.
we are essentially fighting our enemies who have the our contituency (working class, poor peasantry) fighting us.
we need to fight mamta but win over her supporters. we need to isolate her. for this we have to gain back our main constituency.
talking about saving 'our poor' from 'their poor' is plainly playing into the hand of our class enimies.
our 'developmental agenda' both in bengal and kerala (amusement park, five star hotel) have gone seriously wrong.
we are losing ground
lets realise it.
sooner the better.
the issues discussed by rajashi is just a tip of the ice berg.
it very easy to go into the jingoism mode and say lets take up arms and finish the tmc.
thats what we did after nandigram.
then lot many people cheered our comrades. all of us cheered when our home minister declared ' we gave them in the same coin'
we were not able to gauage the discontent amongst the peasants of nandigram.
we sufferred.
i repeat.
WE NEED TO ISOLATE MAMTA.
WE NEED TO WIN HER SUPPORTERS BACK INTO OUR FOLD.
WE SHOULD RESPECT THE VERDICT AND PAUSE OUR DEVELOPMENT AGENDA.
LISTEN TO ALL THE VOICES WITHIN WHO WERE IN DISAGREEMENT WITH THIS AGENDA.
START A AGITATIONAL PROGRAMME TO TAKE OUR CLOSED FACTORIES SO THAT NEW FACTORIES CAN BE STARTED.
EXPOSE THE REAL PEOPLE WHO OPPOSE INDUSTRIALISATION OF BENGAL.
DON'T TREAT AGRICULTURE AS A FAILURE, DOING AGRICULTURE IS OUT OF FASHION IN LEFT CIRCLES (at least it looks that way)
THINK IMAGINATEVELY HOW TO MAKE AGRICULTURE MORE PRODUCTIVE AND PROFITABLE.
DON'T COME ACROSS AS ESTATE AGENTS OF TATA AND SALEEM GROUP
UNFORTUNATELY THAT IS WHAT IS CREATING THIS MISTRUST AND THE DESERTION OF OUR MAIN CONSTITUENCY TO THE PRETENTIOUS GRASSROOT PARTY (TRINAMOOL).
prakash kutty.
