Understanding India's Maoists
Maoist movement in India has a long history of about 40 years and still continues in a more organized and deadly way. The movement in India derives its ideological legitimacy from the “integrated” Marxism-Leninism-Maoism which bases itself for scientific validity on the Theory of Contradiction. The Theory is also paraphrased as law of the unity of opposites. Mao defines it as the basic law of materialistic dialectics. The theory states contradictions are everywhere: between proletariat and bourgeois, between labour and capital, between feudalism and common masses. Contradictions surface from the concrete analysis of concrete conditions’ on grounds. The proscribed Communist Party of India (Maoist), Maoists in short, also known in India as Naxalites, is the most lethal and largest of all such groups. Its ultimate aim is to capture/seize political/state power though protracted people’s war (PPW), on the lines propounded by Mao Tse Tung.
