Their success is limited to teh states of 1. West Bengal, where they've remained in power partly due to land reform

and partly due to electoral practices inconsistent with free, universal franchise

, and have recently started wooing foreign investors to teh state

and violently suppressing farmer/worker protests against those policies

, and 2. Kerala, where they and teh opposition Congress alternate turns in power, without fail.
