CPM - Communist Party of India (Marxist) The party emerged from a split from the Communist Party of India in 1964. Under the government of the Indian National Congress party of Jawaharlal Nehru, independent India developed close relations and a strategic partnership with the Soviet Union. The Soviet government consequently wished that the Indian communists moderate their criticism towards the Indian state and assume a supportive role towards the Congress governments. However, large sections of the CPI claimed that India remained a semi-feudal country, and that class struggle could not be put on the back-burner for the sake of guarding the interests of Soviet trade and foreign policy. Simultaneously, the relations between the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and the Communist Party of China soured. In the early 1960s The basis of difference in opinion between the two factions in CPI was ideological. The alleged 'right wing' inside the party followed the Soviet path and put forward the idea of joining hands with the then ruling party – Indian National Congress. Whereas the faction of CPI which later became CPI(M) referred to this as a revisionist approach of class collaboration. DYFI - Democratic Youth Federation of India.
