It has also touched upon the revival of the CFSA in 1977 and 1987. Explaining how non-implementation of party policies and programmes, authoritative attitude of the party elite towards the rank and file, and the emergence of ideological differences among them led to the formation of the pressure group. The structure, process and functions of the pressure group have also been analysed. The forum reiterated its faith in defining the concept of socialism, its basic objective being to emphasize the establishment of socialistic society in the country. The forum achieved a good success as far as controlling monopolistic tendencies and expansion of public enterprise were concerned.
