COMMUNIST PARTY OF INDIA  On December 26, 1925, a few ardent young patriots moved by the urge to free the motherland from colonial bondage, inspired by the Great October Socialist Revolution and fired with revolutionary zeal, braved imperialist persecution and came together in the city of Kanpur, to form the Communist Party of India with a view to fight for national independence and a future of socialism. The Party has fraternal relations with Communist and workers’ parties, progressive and democratic movements in all countries. The party’s election symbol is ears of corn and sickle, which represent agriculture and industry. This is inspired from the symbols of communist parties from around the world, specifically from the erstwhile USSR.

COMMUNIST PARTY OF INDIA (MARXIST) The CPI(M) was formed at the Seventh Congress of the Communist Party of India held in Calcutta from October 31 to November 7, 1964. The CPI(M) was born in the struggle against revisionism and sectarianism in the communist movement at the international and national level, in order to defend the scientific and revolutionary tenets of Marxism-Leninism and its appropriate application in the concrete Indian conditions. The CPI(M) has grown steadily since its formation in 1964. Its election symbol is hammer, sickle and star representing agriculture, industry and dawn. This is taken from the erstwhile Soviet Communist Party. These motifs aptly symbolise the people it represents.
