Talk:Revolutionary Communist Council of India

History
- have you seen this source? Revealed: Inside story of the 1968-69 Calcutta robberies I don't rate The Times of India that highly has a reliable source when it comes to left politics, but looking at this with the other sources it seems to me to suggest the following timeline: 1962 founded as RCCI (marking the Sino-Soviet split, but not seen a source to confirm connection to the split) ... sometime around late 60s following (?) the Naxal uprising the MMG group is involved in bank robberies which are used to fund the RCCI .... 1969 Singh is arrested ... 1970 RCCI group arrested.... dissolves. Thoughts? Regards,--Goldsztajn (talk) 22:42, 8 April 2021 (UTC)
 * , I hadn't seen that article. So I'm a bit perplexed here, there are various sources talking about Ananta Singh founding a group with this or a similar name in the 1960s. Then various articles detailing the 1970 arrest that led to the Jadugoda Naxalite Conspiracy Case. But I fail to find a WP:RS that connects the dots between Singh and Jadugoda, albeit there are non-WP:RS that does exactly that. --Soman (talk) 13:14, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
 * - The EPW article I posted explains that Singh was arrested in 1969, that is prior to the to the Jaduguda arrests. You've referenced p166 from Banerjee's Naxalite Uprising, but have you seen the full text across pages 166-167? A similar group of revolutionaries hit the headlines of all the newspapers in India in May 1970. About 60 young people including some women were alleged by the police to have attacked a police station in the Ruam region near Jamshedpur in Bihar. They were apprehended from the inaccessible Jadugudir forest after a week-long intense search by the police with the help of helicopters. One of the accused in what came to be known as the Jaduguda Naxalite Conspiracy case, was a 26-year old British girl - Mary Tyler. The group was known as the Revolutionary Communist Council of India and owed allegiance to Marxism-Leninism and Mao's Thoughts, according to their pamphlets.
