A landmark work in South Asian political history, The Communist Party of India: A Short History by M. R. Masani presents a concise yet authoritative account of the rise and development of communist ideology and organisation on the Indian subcontinent. Masani, a prominent Indian politician and writer with firsthand experience of the Indian left, chronicles the party's origins, its ideological foundations, and its evolving relationship with both the Soviet Union and the Indian nationalist movement. Written with clarity and critical insight, the work argues that understanding the CPI's trajectory is essential to grasping the broader currents of twentieth-century Indian politics. Published under the distinguished Bhavan's Book University series by Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, this volume remains an indispensable reference for students, scholars, and general readers interested in Indian political thought and history.
