I knew Ira Duraisamy, the author of ‘Struggles and Sacrifices’, well, whether he was working at NCPH or later when he was involved in party building in Ambattur areas. The book includes records from John Reed, the world’s greatest journalist who witnessed the October Revolution, to his many comrades. The lives of the late communist leaders of Tamil Nadu are very noble. They immersed themselves in the development and suffering of the country. In particular, the author’s writing about comrades A.S.K., V.Subbaiah, K.T.K., S.S.T., T.R.S. Mani and many others is not just a letter, it is an epic. The centenary journey of the Communist Party of India includes not only sacrifices and struggles, but also great achievements. M. Veerapandian State Secretary, Communist Party of India.
