ORGANIZATION ERRORS

C. Organization
1) Formation of a communist party which is proletarian in character and armed with MLMTT as its ideological guide. 2) Mobilization of the peasants, workers and students to participate actively and on national scale in the proletarian revolution which is essentially an agrarian revolution.
3) Organization of the National United Front as the other weapon to destroy and isolate the government.
