All the three Communist Parties in Khammam District of Andhra Pradesh, have as per the news reports accepted, having received funds from liquor syndicates. The District Head of CPM accepted, that they collected Rs. 300,000 towards party fund and issued receipt. The funds were apparently used for conducting State Level Conference of the Party.
The Communist Parties claim that they fight liquor contractors and demand that belt shops be closed. Behind the screens, they are collecting funds from the same liquor syndicates.
There is no doubt that parties cannot be run without funds. But, what is the use of running parties, by collecting funds through dubious means, particularly from those, whom the Communist Parties declare as bourgeois?
Begging in the streets, with bowls in hands, would have been better than accepting donations from liquor syndicates.
Is it not high time that the CPI and CPM as an alternative, change their names, in such a way that the new names reflect their true modus operandi?
Suggested new name: CPM = Communist Party Madyavadi.
CPI = Communist Party Inebriate.
