1/n #SadarPranam to Ishvara within you @_YogendraYadav ji.

I'm sorry to say but you have no idea about how Communists had supported Communal Violence around 1946-47.

I mention same in this thread which you may respond should you have enough substance. https://twitter.com/_YogendraYadav/status/1306669124643254272
2/n @_YogendraYadav ji, if I refer to "Brothers Against the Raj", Hashim the secretary of the Muslim League, the key man behind the rise of Suhrawardy, mentions in his memoir, "Let Us Go To The War", that he had help from Nikhil Chakravartti a young communist. Read.
3/n Not to forget, Hashim calls himself an "Islamic Socialist".
4/n Further @_YogendraYadav would you ask you friend @SitaramYechury if Jyoti Basu & 2 other CPI MLAs had not attended the Muslim League meeting on direct action day (August 16, 1946) which involved anti-Hindu Speeches and led to violence?
5/n @_YogendraYadav ji, do you have any idea of press statement that "Jyoti Basu" had given on 13/8/46 for "DirectActionDay"?

CPI declared to support the strike in Muslim areas & oppose the same in Hindu areas! WHY @SitaramYechury
