I've been using wikipedia for many years, but i've never come across an article this badly written. The "Ideological-political hegemony and cultural renaissance", "First CPI congress, 1943", "Multi-faceted struggles", "Expulsion and rehabilitation" and "Last days" sections of the article all feature zero references. In addition to not being neutral in the slightest such as "His work in Bengal famine is unparalleled", "Joshi not only led peaceful mass struggles and the party in various elections including those of 1946; he also led the party successfully in armed struggles" and "Their deep effects can be seen long after freedom. Communists were the first to use these media on such scale with telling impact" to give some examples. PvtHoolio (talk) 09:27, 17 September 2026 (UTC)Reply
