Ramaswami: The two important questions raised in the interaction need to be mentioned. One was about the relevance of the Manifesto in Indian context since it was addressed to Europe. The related sub question was why the Manifesto did not speak caste factor. It was explained that the Manifesto’s basic formulations are as relevant to Indian context as any other nation. Further Marx extensively dealt with the Indian context exactly after four years of the Manifesto. From 1852 onwards he wrote many articles for New York Daily Tribune on the impact of British rule in India. In these articles, Marx also dealt with the caste factor and how it was a big obstacle in the progress of Indian society.
