Confused Party of India (CPI)

What exactly is the role of the Left in our government? To me they seem to want to play the role of a 3 year old kid, they want everything to be done their way. Instead of giving them a good spanking and putting them in their place, UPA is pampering them. This is the main reason why UPA is going to loose the next election.

I was under the impression that the left was interested in the rights of labors and in upliftment. Does not cheaper energy source mean a lesser burden on the working class? On one hand they oppose the hike on fuel price and on the other hand block the nuke deal with US. What exactly are they trying to achieve?

If they feel that we would become bonded labor to US if we sign this deal, why don’t they work out a similar deal with their communist friends in China and Russia? Without any respite in the horizon and with no other choice rather hiking the price of fuel, UPA has fueled the rising inflation to well beyond the affordability of the man on the street.

In my school going days I used to see lot of places were the Communist party workers used to collect funds on the roadside, nowadays I do not see any of them. Who exactly is funding the Communist party that they have become so cash rich that they have stopped collecting of the funds? Whose side are they really on? Was China’s non opposition to India-US deal a confirmation that CPI had given their word to China that they will ensure that the deal will not go through?

I think its high time India evolves a system of having a referendum on all national issues, instead of behind held hostage by the unholy matrimony of power alliance that these parties stitch at the center. A democratic country is not only a country that elects it leaders but also have a say in how the country is governed. This may be additional cost to the exchequer but the least an affirmative action will be taken so that the country can move forward.
