Azizul Haque, a prominent figure in India's Naxalite movement, has died at the age of 83. His passing marks the end of an era in Bengal's radical Left history.
I don't believe Kanu Sanyal committed suicide. We all murdered him, the present society being his killer.The peasants' movement across the country lost its parent today. I am dumbfounded.My association with Kanuda dates back to the 1950s when India was witnessing the Tebhaga movement. It was a militant campaign initiated in Bengal by the Kisan Sabha (peasants' front of the Communist Party of India) in 1946.
