... we as the majority party, expect to be called to form a Government; and we are confident of giving the people of kerala a stable Government. Once we form a Government, we are not going to stage an upheaval the next day. What we mean to do is to function in the service of the people within the four corners of the present Constitution. This is nothing into the nature of the Red Revolution. The bogey of revolution, violently upsetting everything is not of our making but of our opponents.

Mr.M.N.Govindan Nair

The victory of the Communist Party in this election is not an accident. It is the natural culmination of the sincere service to the people of kerala by the communist here in the last twenty five years the antipeople activities of the Congress party during the past one decade and the continuous stymieing by other parties in the state to dislodge the Congress party from power.

The coming into power of a Communist government in Kerala in 1957 was looked upon as a socio political miracle by the whole world. But the fact was that kerala society was evolving in such a way as to accept a government with communist ideology although a formal communist party was started only in 1939. Still the dominant section of the Indian National Congress in Malabar viz, the congress socialist party was motivated more by Marxian social synergism than by Gandhian tactics. The communist political philosophy was familiar in Kerala’s society much before the formation of the communist party.
