Political Bankruptcy of Stalinist RCLI's 'New Socialist Revolution'

- Rajesh Tyagi

Introduction

Series of Six articles included in this Pamphlet, is the intervention of Workers’ Socialist Party in a debate between two Stalinist groups where the two accusing each other of committing the eternal sin of ‘Trotskyism’, have indulged in mudslinging upon the co-leader with Lenin of October Revolution, Leon Trotsky and his ‘Permanent Revolution’.

“Praxis Collective” and “Shaheed Bhagat Singh Disha Manch” two rabidly Stalinist-Maoist organisations in India, locked horns with each other in an argument that encompasses issues from character of Russian revolution to assumption of power by capitalists-landlords in 1947 in India.

Most degenerated among Stalinists in India, both groups are rooted in Stalinism and Maoism, and agree to its all basic postulates that include adherence to Menshevik ‘two stage theory of revolution’ and ‘socialism in one country’ etc. None of them, however, has formed any real party, nor ever presented any program.
