Communist Party of United States of India
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Communist Party of United States of India is an underground political party in India, based in the state of Andhra Pradesh. The CPUSI was formed on May 17, 1997 as a result of fractional infighting in the Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) Janashakti. The founder of CPUSI was Veeranna and it is often called the Janashakti Veeranna faction. CPUSI belonged to the section who wanted to put stronger emphasis on caste issues rather than class. CPUSI conducts armed struggle, through 'dalam' squads.
In June 2001 a high-ranking leader of CPUSI, Yerra Narasa Reddy, surrendered to the police.
