This is a serious allegation against Monthly Review.
David Pug's piece ( <http://mrzine.monthlyreview.org/pugh161008.html>)
had omitted the whole section dealing with his observations on his
visit to CPM ruled West Bengal .The uncensored report is
http://sanhati.com/news/1043/
This is very much unbecoming of Monthly Review whose tradition of
upholding freedom of expression is virtually raped.

Subject: Displacement: David Pugh's Report (without censorship)
Dear friends:
A few days ago we sent you a longish piece on the topic of
"Displacement", which included a field report by David Pugh.
We since heard that his Report as reproduced by Monthly Review
( <http://mrzine.monthlyreview.org/pugh161008.html>) had omitted the
whole section dealing with his observations on his visit to CPM ruled
West Bengal.
We now send you a link which gives you a full uncensored report. Kindy
click the link below:

> Dear Hari,
> Surprisingly Monthly Review censored out the part on West Bengal from Dave Pugh's report. I was surprised because he had visited Kolkata and talked to people in my organization. I guess I shouldn't be surprised because it attests to the influence that the CPI(M) wields on the left in the west, rather to put it in another way the left in the west considers the CPI(M) to be the left in India. But that is not the case. Below is the link to Dave's full, unedited report which we got through sources.
