Naxalite - Naxalite (English spelling)

Japanese: ナクサライト - なくさらいと(英語表記)Naxalite
Naxalite - Naxalite (English spelling)

A fierce anti-landlord struggle unfolded in the Indian states of West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh from 1967 to 1970. This struggle was started by poor, hired farmers from the Naxalbari region in northern West Bengal, who came to be collectively called Naxalites after the name of the region. In 1969, the Communist Party of India - Marxist-Leninist was founded by these people. The Naxalite movement, which was carried out with the support of the People's Republic of China government at the time, was isolated from the revolutionary movement throughout India and was oppressed by the Indian government, disappearing from the map of Indian politics.

Japanese:

1967~70年にインドの西ベンガル州とアンドラ・プラデシュ州を中心に展開された激しい反地主闘争。この闘争の口火を切ったのは西ベンガル州北部のナクサルバーリー地方の貧・雇農であって、この地名に由来して、彼らはナクサライトと総称されるに至った。69年にはこれらを主にして「インド共産党マルクス・レーニン主義者」が発足した。当時の中華人民共和国政府の支援のもとで進められたナクサライト運動は、インド全体の革命運動から孤立し、インド政府の弾圧も加えられ、インド政治の地図上からは消滅してしまった。
