| | Panchayat Election in West Bengal |
 | | In the 1998 elections to the zilla parishads, the CPI(M) had secured 1,20,25,715 votes to win 560 zila parishad seats whereas the Congress, the TMC and the BJP together had got 1,34,14,538 votes bagging only 71 seats. | | | The CPI(M) goons heckled even two RSP ministers during their election campaigning. | | | In fact, this campaign had begun right in the wake of last Assembly elections when the CPI(M) celebrated its victory and the unexpected defeat suffered by the TMC by forcibly ‘reclaiming’ several marginal panchayats from the control of the erstwhile TMC-BJP alliance. |

| | [L-I] [ INDIA ] ML Update, Vol.5; No.31; August 1-7, 2002. |
| | EC URGED TO HAVE BEST APPRAISAL OF GUJARAT REALITY CPI(ML) warned against saffron attempts to force early elections in Gujarat and reiterated that the overall situation in Gujarat is still far from normal; therefore early elections are unwarranted in that state. | | | While strongly condemning the police high-handedness, CPI(ML) said that the government has tried to break the unity of adivasis, peasants and workers, which is the cornerstone of progress in Jharkhand, only to cover up its all-round failure and complete loss of credibility, as corroborated by the BJP's defeat in Dumka by-election. | | | Party also urged the Election Commission to ensure that victims of the carnage in Gujarat as well as the organisations engaged in relief and rehabilitation work must have a direct access to the Election Commission team on its visit to the state so as to appraise it of the ground reality. |

| | Yechury said the Election Commission had accepted the party's suggestion that the examination schedule not be disrupted, the revision of electoral rolls be completed before the announcement of elections and that the Lok Sabha polls in West Bengal, Kerala and Tripura be held on a single day. | | | The CPI (M) had proof that an officer on special duty in the Prime Minister's Office wrote to the Director of the DAVP on January 21, the day of the dissolution of the Lok Sabha, asking him to issue these advertisements on behalf of the various Ministries. | | | The CPI (M) manifesto was under preparation and the broad themes included saving the country from the clutches of communal forces, working for an alternative secular government and strengthening the Left parties. |

| | But this has confused the Left voters, at least in West Bengal where the CPI-M had always considered the Congress as its main enemy. | | | To check this trend, CPI-M leaders are busy appealing to traditional Congress voters to vote for the Left Front candidates in order to oppose the 'communal BJP". | | | In the last election, the Congress and the BJP had won one seat each. |

| | How Did Our Party Evolve |
| | The CPI(ML) has all along opposed all manifestations of Indian domination over its smaller neighbouring countries and we consider this as the litmus test of proletarian internationalism, a test much more crucial than supporting Cuba, South Africa or Palestine. | | | Thus the election boycott was made a tactical question. | | | These positions led to political cooperation with the Congress at several critical junctures, like siding with Indira Congress against the Syndicate, supporting the Congress candidate in the last presidential election, and the recent advocacy of an anti-BJP secular front with the Congress(I). |
