The
CPI(M) is engaged in bringing about this basic transformation by
carrying out a programme to end imperialist, big bourgeois and landlord
exploitation. The CPI(M) as the leading Left party is committed to build
a Left and Democratic front which can present a real alternative to the
existing bourgeois-landlord policies.
The
Party has been able to effectively withstand the imperialist propaganda
offensive in the aftermath of the setback and reverses to socialism
internationally. While various communist parties had changed their names
and abandoned the ideology of the working class, the CPI(M) maintained
its ideological and political unity.
