Our Viewpoint on Maoism

-Rajesh Tyagi

Our struggle against Maoism implicitly recognizes that there are many sincere and committed individuals in the Maoist movement, who are motivated solely by a desire to eliminate the pervasive and persistent injustice that they see all around them. However such motivations alone are insufficient and cannot form a substitute for a sober and scientific understanding of social reality.

Maoism, the Chinese variant of Stalinism, has nothing in common with revolutionary Marxism. In conjunction with Stalinists they have misled and mis-educated generations of youth and workers in the backward countries and have prevented them from taking to the road of revolution.
