Hello Mohak, I'm a student of Political Science in Sxc kolkata. This is such a well researched video. Quite well put,to the point,fair. I've read some of research works used here and this is such a nice feeling that your work is being noticed by people. Fair knowledge is essential for becoming of a sound voter. I believe you are doing a great job in this regard. I'm going to share this with my department.
I am thinking of becoming a political scientist I am currently in class 12th Can you tell me anything regarding this career option Btw I am commerce stream
Whatever shown in the video is just glimpse of history not social or political science.If you r really interested in facts and want to see things as they are then you need credible unbiased sources. People part of some political propoganda can be informative but more dangerously they may keep you away from reality on the ground. Talk to people there ,you will understand what's happening currently and how it's different than what Left did. Considering we live in a digital world and r in 21st century with more reach to incidents ,one should not compare what happened in 1960s to what is currently happening..just to justify violence.
Being a bengali, I was an eyewitness of the violence after TMC own the election. Besides torture on BJP workers, houses of commoners were also broken and many innocent people were also tortured
If BJP comes to power, expect more and more violence. Communal violence will increase. BJP is authoritarian in nature, and Bengalis have always been against that. This will lead to more and more conflicts. I admit, TMC has been involved in minority appeasement, but, Bengal has also seen a new wave of development. CPIM made mistakes, but, their leaders were educated, and that’s what Bengal and India needs today. In conclusion, neither TMC, nor CPIM is perfect for Bengal, but BJP is absolutely the worst choice. BJP is culturally incompatible with Bengal.
@@brownerjerry174 and same with right your point is dumb man .today 99% of all the rightist party memebers are millionaires same with left . Just bcz he was born rich don't thinking he didn't care for the poor (not taking about mao , Stalin, Lenin ) any person . Iam not a communist
@@bloodwargaming3662 I was just stating a fact man, Cuban , Yugoslavian , honecker look at anyone and none of them actually came from the working class. I wasn't criticizing or making fun of left for this irony, you made that connection, so how about slowing down this aggressive judging without having knowledge of the context? Infact I am a DEMSOC myself coming from a family with a comfortable amount of wealth, so this fact has always been of interest to me. Furthermore, most of the past socialist countries came in power through violent revolutions or any other method but not democratic election, so wealth of the leader really didn't matter, money is needed to advertise in elections and buying your way into influential connections in today's era, that's why it's mostly millionaires, now may I call your comment dumb?😂😂
Yes you are absolutely right. Whenever there is election, all the road are empty, all institutions are closed. Certain areas where political leaders have residence becomes red zone where at least one bomb is meant to explode. People in other states have no idea of the fear during election we bengalis face.
@@hanseldsilva2393 yes. This Thursday, we will have election. Banks, shops everything will be closed here. CRPF soldiers come in great number to guard booths. It feels like Kashmir whereas, the town I live in is pretty much developed and is closed to become a tier 3 city within a few decades.

@oblivion yes in case of bengal that's true we need Industries and a right wing party is perfect match for it but the problem with bjp is that their politics is based on religious polarisation, they oppress the minority and appease the majority and in a state like west Bengal where the percentage of minority is like 30%, it'd horrible. Hatred between hindu and Muslim would rise, BJP would back the hindus opposition would back the muslims, we would have a divided society and considering how violence the wb politics is we might as well see more cases of communal violences.
@Sudipto Das what do you mean by other state parties? And what is revolutionary party? Another party which will try to mobilise the masses through its dead socialist/communist ideologies. By the way, there were two national level parties, before. Well, Congress isn't anymore on National Level. So, BJP is the only national parties. While few states have communist party ruling them and some regional party.
My Dadaji lived in WB from early 70's till late the 80s. Witnessed first hand the muscleman politics in 1972 by Congress and CPM in 1977. Dead bodies floating over Hooghly river was a common sight.
@@atanupramanik5619 It is someone's first hand experience during that time. Mass Political violence was a livid reality in 70's and 80's.

Guys please learn to differentiate between West bengal and Bengal. Bengal means Bangladesh. The indian part of Bengal is West bengal. Don't malign entire bengal's name just because of some isolated incidents in the western wing. D'you malign entire Korea for North Korea's actions?
@Kejriwal Zindabaad hey turn your phone upside down n ..pɹɐʇǝɹ noʎ dn ʇnɥs. Bengal originally refers to the land of West bengal+Bangladesh + plainland tripura+ Assam's barak valley.. You are talking about west Bengal here Only.. Bengal Isn't one anymore.. There is no such word called "bengal" in the native bangla language.. It's an anglicized name of the region.. And in Bangla language, "the word Bangladesh literally means bengali country" so you can't seperate Bengal and Bangladesh lol. Don't use our lands name to denote your colonised state. We Didn't seperate from you guys🤣😂. Partition on the Pakistani side and on the bengal side Weren't same. We Bengali muslims made the majority of the population of united bengal back in 1947. Why would we want partition of Bengal? Why would the majority Wanna separate from the minority? Yes, before the pakistani resolutiom was put forward our leaders wanted a seperate united bengali country (West Bengal, Assam's barak valley, Bangladesh). But dadababus from kolkata rejected it complaining because they Don't want to be in Muslim majority country and demanded partition. We Bengalis on this side never wanted to be merged with india because the bengal region was never a part of india. We were historically always seperate and independent and were never in a political union with hindi-belt before the british came. West Bengalis sold themselves to hindi speakers. 70% of the total bengal region's land is today independent under Bangladesh, and most Bengalis in the world also live in Bangladesh. In america, there are two seperate states called Virginia and West virginia.. West virginia is small in size than virginia. That's why it's Bengal 🇧🇩 and West bengal. Ask a five year old outside India what "Bengal" means They'll automatically refer to Bangladesh as in much of the word, we get called bangalees instead of "Bangladeshi".. Call it Poshchimbongo, bangla prodesh or whatever. Don't forget to put the prefix " West" if you're saying bengal.. So that you guys remember you’ve got no rigjts over our land. Only the small western part is for you ppl.
@@soumitrasinghamahapatra1968 actually, the sains were landlords and they were very corrupt. So the farmers were fed up and wanted to file a case against them but some cpm goons made them resort to violence. So the landlord and his brothers were killed and they goons made their 80 year old mother eat rice with the sons' blood. One of the most horrifying incidents ever...
The killing happened. But "the mother was fed rice mixed with her sons' blood" is a fake, framed, bullshit rumour. Sains were tyrant jaminders of their time and had a lot of land in Barddhaman regions. They used to exercise the power by exploiting the workers (mostly marginal SC/ST farmers), harassed the women of the workers family and even killed the workers. One day, one of the brothers of Sains repeated the same, but that time the workers organised under local CPI(M) leaders, entered the house of SAINs and killed them.

I am staying in Bengaluru now but was in WB until my PUC.Noone used to say "I am CPM member " on those days,they rather used to say "I'm party worker(আমি পার্টি করি)" Politics and CPM used to be completely synonymous.
This is going to be a good one I'm sure. Edit: farmers agitation for distribution of land is older than the 1960s. The Tebhaga movement started before independence and carried on till 1950 or so. And I wish you included the violence of the jongolmohol, where the Maoists practically ran a parallel government during the tail end of the left rule.
@@classics1o No. It is wrong. People get killed mostly during elections. It is a matter of rivalry between parties. Why only Bengal, North Indian and North-east Indian states, elections are violent only.

I was born in Calcutta in the 80's in a political family and as someone who has seen bengal politics in intimate details I think this was such a well researched video. Kudos!!!
Your analysis is absolutely true ..my family also victimized of party society culture , Naxalite movement , bijan setu massacre. My mother was graduated in that time but did not even get school teacher job bcz we are belongs to anti cpim wing. My cpim supported relatives bullying us (as we don't support cpim ever) . Each and every anti cpim family was victimized at that time.
Yeah and they were not leftists at all and the people who are now sitting in the centre are also not right wing at all,,, all the party in india has only one ideology big tent it will shift accordingly for their corrupted intrests, so all the parties in india have only one ideology ,the corrupt wing

It's surprising that we humans always have something to divide ourselves. Once it's religion, once it's ethnicity, once it's language and if none are present then we divide ourselves on lines of ideologies and party. Maybe it's our tendency to have conflicts, but we should try to avoid it becoming physical violence
Divide on ideas is good as long as it doesn't translate to violence. Often the people who bring real positive change are most fervent believers of their ideas.
From West Bengal here... All I can say is that, this tradition of political violence had been engineered by then Left front government... But TMC has taken it into a max pro level... In 2017 our whole locality has been threatened by TMC goons for just casting our votes in Municipal election... Without central force it's just unimaginable to conduct free and fair vote here...
It's neither fault of CPM nor TMC party as a whole the problem is due to the local party leaders who are the main inducers of violence we need to vote this goons out first weather they are in TMC , BJP or Congress - CPM alliance

My grandfather lived in kolkata for a while and what he described about politics there is exactly party society. He said that those days if a congress supporter went to a left dominated residential area he was likely to get murdered by the residents. Party was such an important part of society there.
I live in Jadavpur and I have encountered many famous politicians belonging to different parties ,who rallied across my house. I feel proud enough to say that cities like kolkata no longer encounter communal violence as things are much much better. Party society exists but violence on the basis of supporting different parties is no longer practiced to such an extent.

Wow being a bengoli from west bengal, can't deny any of your statement. It was all true 👍 the things we see today were linked to our past of political violence, who could've guessed that 😅
*Bengal was flashpoint of violent attacks since British era. Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, Rishi Aurobindo (who spent his last life in Pondicherry), Kshudiram Bose, Binay Bose, Badal Gupta, Dinesh Gupta, Masterda Surya Sen, Pritalata Waddedar, Prafulla Chaki, Jatindranath Mukherjee (BaghaJatin), Jatindra Nath Das (who died in 63 days of hunger strike - you may heard about him in Rang De Basanti), Deshbandhu Chittaranjan Das and the list goes on and on.* *I have skipped about Great Calcutta Killings which is considered as riot*
There are two ways of generating revenue for political parties nowadays. 1. Cut money/ vasooli 2. Crony capitalism 1. Cut money/ vasooli is the quickest & easiest way to generate money. It is taken from common people. It hurts common people a lot. It doesn't generates jobs. It is not sustainable. At the end when people gets fed up , they kick out such political parties harshly. 2. Crony capitalism-- its a type of capitalism where a small number of capitalists, industrialists are supported in return they help the concerned political party. Here common people are not affected. Natural resources are affected a lot. In return heavy industrialization is done in short time. It generates job too. If any political party becomes expertise in it then they gonna live for a long time. But its not easy for all political parties. So its upto you which one to choose
Just to clarify you, the Protest of Singur and Nandigram was basically a Bluff, played by Mamata herself. A very dirty politics which led to backstaging of Bengal.
Thank you Mohak Mangal for explaining Bengal's violence culture on elections. In Maharashtra due to vinoba bhave's bhumi dan movement we saw equal land distribution. So also, in 1965 onwards Sharad Joshi's efforts, landworkers who actually doing agricultural activity became landowners. Is this kind of things didn't occurred in west Bengal or jamindars purposely failed such National movement in terms of agricultural reforms.
Concise, crips, well researched, and unbiased, which is the most crucial aspect of this video. I wish it was more detailed, but little is better than nothing. Bengal Politics history is incomplete without the mention of "Bangla Congress" which existed during the similar time of the Naxalbari uprising, and how it paved the future of Bengal Politics.
This is somewhat a similar situation in Kerala too .... Politics has a major role in livelihood infact in some districts political parties have wayyyyyy deeper roots in families than religion
