Naxalism could not form a base in West Bengal for 30 years since its inception due to the political battle waged by the organised Left, CPM leader Sitaram Yechury has said.
"Please remember that Naxalbari is a village in West Bengal from where this ultra-Left (Naxal) deviation took place. And for 30 years they could not come back to West
Bengal only because of the fight we had put up," he said in an interview. He charged the Trinamool Congress with bringing them back, saying "they were imported into West Bengal by our political opponents ... in order to be used against us." Yechury said the Trinamool Congress, which was "sitting in the Central government", wanted to fight the Left "using the Maoists and gave them shelter, gave them patronage. They were brought in from across the border (of the state)".
Defending the release of some tribal women in exchange for a police officer who was held captive by the Maoists, he said they were "hapless tribal women and not hardened Maoists".
