It's funny to see that people who don't know anything about CPM making comments, on CPM internal matters. CPM is the only disciplined party in India, yesterday we have witnessed it. All the other party members cross voted or bought by other political parties. This is applicble to anybody in CPM. If they don't take this type of courageous decisions, they will also become like any other political party in India.

Dear Biju Paul, I was looking for an answer for one of my serious doubts. I think your are the right person to give an answer. CPM was deadly against Compterisation (like now happening in Nuke deal) at one time. Now the CPM Chief Minister of Kerala (who was also in fore front of agitation against Computerisation) is inagurating with a broad smile, the Smart City. Now tell us if CPM could succeed in stopping Computerisation at that time, what should have been the fate of our Country ? Now you talk against Nuke deal, but as every one knows we have acute power shortage and what is your alternative solution for power. If not US, which other country can help us to develop nuclear power plants. I am not talking in favour of US, but i think it is a genuine question.

communism is evil ideology. Equal distribution of poverty.
Also, China paid communists to stop this agreement.

India is a democracy but communism does not believe in it. Communist parties around the world are products of Marxian or Leninist doctrines which do not accept democracy as a mode of governance. Democracy is anathema in communism and people around the world are still fighting to end the dictatorial rules of the communist parties. Indian communists are not democrats by choice. The party organization is run in India just like communist parties run governments the world over. The ultimate aim of communist manifestos is not democracy. It is an irony. While democracy allows communism, communists by their faith do not believe in democracy. In their way of governance, not only governments but also democracy are subservient to the party. It is unrealistic to expect communists to have any respect for democratic institutions. They just want to use Indian democracy as ploy for achieving their ultimate objective of communist dictatorship in the country. Expulsion of the Speaker of the Indian from CPM is only an example of what these communists ultimately want to do with Indian Democracy

interesting they threw out a veteran who served for long just because he didnt step down???? inagine if all parties tool that stand we would had anyone to prseide. aspaekre is suppossed to be neutral and he got punished for that. I hope CPM takes a principled stand that they will not extract the benifits of the nuclear power agreement (and keep their people in darkmess - if they havnet alraedy) by refusing to draw Electric power/energy in states they rule.
1)Please tell me what somanath done wrong, LEFT already know that once they make somanath a speaker he will become a constitutional member, till he is there he has moral and constitutional responsiblity(Means Indian constitution), he acted like that........... 2)The letter he writen to Prakash Karat how it become public its made by MR. Karat and party

Last week Mr. T.K.Hamza, MP of CPIM told in a public debate that US has two enemies- Communists & ISLAM, So we will not allow any american deal. That was his party's view. Do you think CPIM is above national intrest ? Like what happened during China war. I feel a person like somnath cannot digest such a communal colour to any national issue. So HE WAS right.
How can one who himself defies discipline administer discipline? During the big debate, Mr. Somnath Chaterjee told Mr. Gurudas Dasgupta who was looking at Mr. Balu while making his speech: "Balu is not in the Chair, I am in the Chair?" The same Mr. Somnath Chatterjee was enjoying the situation with smiling face behind his palms when Mr. Lalu Yadav was looking at Mr. George Fernandes and making sarcasting remarks: "What are you looking around? You were teaching us socialism...!" Should we call this the glorification of the Chair of the Speaker of Lok Sabha? A Speaker is one who does not speak. But our Speaker is one who speaks a lot.
Decision of the CPM Party is absolutely right. This is violation of party's directive. But my question is Mr Subhash Chakraborty violated party directives no of times , say , giving open comments aganinst the party before press. and He got excaped no of times by Mr Jyoti Basu's intervention. But this CPM Party will not dare to take steps against subhash babu because lakhs and lakhs of people are with him and he has very strong public support and the party will be in danger. In fact CPM party really is afraid of Subhash babu. somenath babu do not have that much power because throughout his life time he engaged in national politics instead of local politics. His expulsion will not affect party as well as local supporters. Bengali proverb " SAKTER BHATKA NAROMER JOM"
He should obey and respect the party rules and regulations. He always eyed on Big posts like president of india, prime minister of india, which he does not deserve at all. When He became appointed as Speaker of Lok Sabha, he thought that its a ladder to be a president of india and he can fulfill his dream. But CPI-M party has taught him a lesson by expelling him from the party. He should be ashamed of being so greedy for his post of speaker of loksabha.

As a Speaker, one is not a partisan. But surely he /she is what he/she is because of the support of a party, independents excluded.

karat was not the person who expels somenath chatterjee , it is the politburo's majorities decision . Only CPM has the gut's to follow their party principle . Nobody is bigger than the party . It is not a question of bengali's sentiment , rather the obey of your party -guideline , which is not decided a particular person or any suprimo , like Mr. thachkaray , it is set by a committie , a functional body .
