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.

You fail to understand brother that CPIM HAS EQUATED CLASS WITH CASTE AND THUS HAS DONE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THEIR IDEOLOGY (whatever discredited its today, damage was done prior to that).

By the way, in West Bengal, where CPIM is still ruling 30 plus years, caste discrimination is much much less. Even lower than in kerala.

Its NOT because of CPIM. But because of great work done by Sri Chaitanyadev, some 500 years back.

CPIM has politicalized caste - which is most dangerous.

Anyway, in the long run, efforts of Sri Narayan Guru will prove to be MUCH MORE PRODUCTIVE than 1000s of EMSs, as far as caste goes.
