This article was written in UPA regime, when with the arrest of Kobad Gandhi, when the term urban Naxalism was coined. Green hunt, arrest of pro-people activists and journalists to create the the phobia of the specter of Naxalism for electoral gains and lost. Ruling classes overplay their their internal minor and mostly artificial contradictions to blunt the edge of the major and real contradictions -- the economic contradictions. For over 3 decades, the contradictions of two camps of the agents of imperialist, global capital -- the Cong. and BJP -- has become the national political contradictions. No wonder many BJP MPs are ex-Cog. people. Lenin wrote in the State and Revolution that in a parliamentary democracy people decide about which section of the ruling classes is going to oppress them for the next five years? We haven't been able to build a radical alternative, so choice is between constitutional capitalist dictatorship and fascist capitalist dictatorship. Parliamentary democracy allows limited choices between greater and lesser evils, lesser is more tolerable than the greater.
