Dear Tathagata Mukherjee, Though the present CPI(M) is no different from the other political parties, we cannot forget the good work done by them. There is alsmost no caste discrimination in Kerala and the working class is able to make a decent living. Even the muslims in Kerala are not as dogmatic as their counter-parts in other parts of the Country. This is the result of good work done by leaders like of EMS.
