Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) Mahadev Mukherjee

CPI (ML) Mahadeb Mukherjee is a small, almost inactive naxalist party in India.
After CM’s martyrdom, Mahadev Mukherjee and Sharma reorganized a new Central Committee on 5-6 December 1972. The Central Committee upheld Charu Majumdar as the revolutionary authority of India. After the 10th Congress of the CPC, the Party was divided on the Pro-Lin and Anti-Lin factions. The Central Committee led by Mahadev Mukherjee followed the pro-Lin stand and organized the Second Congress of the party which endorsed the authority of Charu Mazumdar's Line and the question of Lin Piao. The Congress was organized at Kamalpur which became a centre of an armed confrontation between the people and the military. Soon some divisions aroused in the Central Committee, and a major coup was organized to oust Mahadev Mukherjee at Deganga. The anti-Mahadev faction discarded Lin Piao and pressurised him to resign from his post. Later Mahadev was arrested from Shilong and thrown behind bars.
Mahadev after his release from jail in the late 70's reorganized the Central Committee with the help of Azizul Haque and Nishith Bhattacharya, two prominent and famous intellectuals. But later, due to Mahadev’s defeatist mentality, Haque and Bhattacharya ousted him from the party and launched the Second Central Committee of CPI (M-L). They carried a big part of the loyalists with them who were offended with Mahadev's sectarianism.
The CPI (M-L) Mahadev Mukherjee still follows Lin Piao. The Mahadev Mukherjee led CPI (M-L) has organizational presence in Andhra Pradesh, West Bengal and New Delhi. The party boycotted the 2004 parliamentary polls, and called for armed struggle. The party does not carry out open works and is an underground party. It holds rallies and mass meetings in Naxalbari and Siliguri region of West Bengal only. The party organized a mass rally at Naxalbari on 25th May 2006.
