The Indian People's Front was a political organisation in India, active between 1982 and 1994. It functioned as an open, mass front of the Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) Liberation, and contested national and state elections. Its leadership included Nagbhushan Patnaik as president 〔United States. ''(JPRS Report. Near East & South Asia )''. (Va.? ): Foreign Broadcast Information Service, 1987. p. 50〕 and Dipankar Bhattacharya as general secretary.〔Attar Chand. ''(President Shankar Dayal Sharma, the Scholar and the Statesman )''. New Delhi, India: Anmol Publications, 1992. p. 128〕 Dr. Jayanta Rongpi, leader of the Autonomous State Demand Committee of the Karbi Anglong District and Lok Sabha member, was a member of the IPF Central Committee.〔Dutta, Madhusree, Flavia, and Neera Adarkar. ''(The Nation, the State, and Indian Identity )''. Calcutta: Samya, 1996. p. 129〕 ==Founding== IPF was launched in 1982 as an open, non-party, mass organisation of the Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) Liberation.〔 A founding conference was held in Delhi April 24–26, 1982, organized by the CPI(ML)Liberation, in which the Nagbhushan Patnaik and Chandra Pulla Reddy factions participated.〔〔Karat, Prakash. ''(Naxalism Today; At an Ideological Deadend )''. ''The Marxist'', Volume: 3, No. 1, January- March 1985〕 Vinod Mishra, the CPI(ML)Liberation general secretary, was largely the architect behind the idea of building the IPF, through which the then underground CPI(ML)Liberation could develop links to other democratic forces on the basis of a popular, democratic and patriotic programme.〔Sen, Arindam. ''(The Life of Vinod Mishra )''〕 The IPF sought to present itself as a "national alternative".〔 Initially IPF had been projected as a united front of different revolutionary groups, but most other factions dropped out in the formation process and IPF effectively became a mass organisation of CPI(ML)Liberation.〔Omvedt, Gail. ''(Reinventing Revolution: New Social Movements and the Socialist Tradition in India )''. London; Armonk, NY: M.E. Sharpe, 1993. p. 163〕 The Satyanarayan Singh faction publicly denounced and ridiculed the notion of IPF becoming a "national alternative".〔 IPF organised a mass rally against the Bihar Press Bill on October 15, 1982. According to mainstream media sources, over 100,000 people took part in the rally.〔Joshi, Barbara R. ''(Untouchable! Voices of the Dalit Liberation Movement )''. Women in the Third World.
