| Sumari: | The debate on (the possibilities and desirability of leftist state governmenrts is on again since the spectacular victory of the Communist Party of India (Alarxist) in West Bengal and Tripura.

The overthrow of the Namboodiripad ministry, however, undid many of these positive steps, though not all. The high level political consciousness in KCerala and the constant political and trade union pressure on the ruling classes could not be undone |
