The open bankruptcy of the once powerful =E2=80=9CCommunist Partie s =E2=80=
=9D of India has further evaporated into insignificance - at least as far a=
s any power handles. Since the last elections when no state has any vestige=
 of =E2=80=98=E2=80=9Ccommunist" ruling them.

From the left, my closest nucleus (ie one to which I would see as being MLi=
st) in India has been left rather quietened - for the moment - after the un=
timely death of Vijay Singh founder of =E2=80=98Revolutionary Democracy=E2=

organisation -=E2=80=98In defence of Marxism=E2=80=99 - https://marxist.com=

So spontaneous eruption I think; which will become organised if it is not a=
lready - but open right now as to what ideology it will embrace. Likely som=
e limited reforms and bribable bureaucrats may emerge. But it is a serious =
break in the BJP front dominating. I have not seen any inkling of its attit=
ude to the sectarian attacks on Muslim minorities.
