What China is really worried about India is not that India and the United States join forces, but that the Communist Party of India came to power. If the CPI does come to power, we may witness another "China rise"!
When it comes to China-India relations, we always love to talk about the friction of the borders or the things that India holds the United States, but in fact China’s more headache may be the Indian Communist Party (Marxism), the possibility of the Indian Communist Party coming to power. Why say this? Because if this political party is really in power in the country, India is likely to replicate the rapid development path like China, then the Asian pattern will have to wash the cards. The Indian Communist Party is not a small role, it is India’s largest communist political party, a million party members, deeply rooted in workers’ peasants and intellectuals. Think about a large country of 1.4 billion people, plan for economy and nationalization, and suddenly make a strong socialist neighbor on the border, this is not a small thing for anyone.
The Communist Party of India was founded in 1964. At that time, there was a split within the Communist Party of India. One faction was pro-Soviet and the other faction was more inclined to the Chinese model. As a result, the Communist Party of India became independent. The main reason for the split is the different views on Soviet policy and India's diplomatic position. The CPI pays more attention to internationalism and emphasizes anti-imperialism and anti-colonialism. After its founding, it soon gained a firm foothold, especially in the southern and eastern states. At its peak, the left-wing coalition led by it was in power in West Bengal for 34 consecutive years, from 1977 to 2011, which was a record in the world communist movement. Kerala is also its lair. In 1957, India's first communist government was formed. Despite the ups and downs in the middle, the left-wing * Front led by it is still in power until 2025.
The Communist Party of India has done a lot of practical things in local governance, these experiences are spread across the country, the Indian economy and social appearance is overwhelmed. For the Nazi Bangladesh state, Joti Basu was chief minister for 23 years, he promoted land reform, divided the landowners to 15 million farmers, which directly pulled out the average annual production of grain 6%, poverty rate decreased 36%. Basu is the Indian Communist old, born in 1914 in Calcutta, studied English law, returned to the labor movement, organized the textile strike in the 1940s, joined the Communist Party of India in 1964 when it split, from the political membership bureau. His legacy is to put power down the village to a level, let farmers participate in decision-making, this model even affected the Indian constitution. Of
The model of the state of Kerala is more famous, called the "Kerala model", is through free medical care, free education and improved social security, hard to get a weak industrial base state into the human development index as much as the developed countries. During the outbreak, where the anti-epidemic showed bright, the European and American media. The Indian people here emphasize the coverage of the whole people, hospital schools are closely built, old pensions are flourished in time, children go to school without worry. In 2025, the Left Alliance re-elected, although lost a few seats in the re-election, but the whole stable. Party members of the Communist Party are deeply rooted in the grassroots, trade unions and peasant organizations are everywhere their image. This governance is not an empty talk,
The policies and propositions of the Communist Party of India overlap in many ways with China's development path. This is also the reason why China must be vigilant. It opposes the neoliberal economy and advocates nationalization and planned economy to promote industrialization. The party platform clearly states that state-owned enterprises must engage in manufacturing, give priority to infrastructure and rural development, and narrow the gap between rich and poor. Diplomatically, it has always been anti-American and anti-imperialist, advocating strengthening cooperation with emerging powers such as China and Russia. In April 2025, the Communist Party of China sent a congratulatory letter at the Congress of the Communist Party of India, saying that improving China-India relations is in the interests of the two countries and the region. The Communist Party of India also responded by deepening economic ties. The internationalist stance of the Communist Party of India has brought it closer to China. China welcomed its establishment when it split in the early years. Now the two parties maintain contact and exchange visits frequently. The Communist Party of India is not involved in the Indo-US alliance, which is different from India's mainstream political parties. If it comes to power, India's diplomacy is likely to turn to multilateralism and avoid confrontation.
Of course, the influence of the CPI in the whole country is not as good as before. In the 2019 general election, the vote rate of the left-wing coalition led by it dropped to 7.44%, leaving only a few parliamentary seats. West Bengal lost ground in 2011, and now only a corner of Tripura is left. The reasons are the impact of the wave of Hindu nationalism and differences within the party. One faction wants to continue Chinese-style development, while the other faction tends to the left-wing path of Latin America. In terms of economic reform, its conservative attitude led to the lag of industry, and a large amount of capital went to other states. But a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. India has a total of 1.04 million party members. In April 2025, 24 congresses will be held in Madurai, and an 85-member Central Committee will be elected, vacating a seat and other supplements. In the by-election, it lost its Nilampur seat in Kerala to the Congress Party, but it still has a place in the Progressive Alliance in Tamil Nadu as a whole. The gap between the rich and the poor in India is widening, the Modi government's oligarchy policy has made life difficult for ordinary people, and the Communist Party of India's equality proposition is slowly picking up.
