Charu Majumdar (15 May 1918 – 28 July 1972) was an Indian communist ideologue, and founder and General Secretary of the Communist Party of India (Marxist–Leninist). Born into a landlord family in Siliguri in 1918, he became a Communist during the Indian independence movement, and later formed Naxalism, an armed rebellion. During this period, he authored the historic accounts of the 1967 Naxalbari uprising. His writings, particularly the Historic Eight Documents, have become part of the ideological doctrine of a number of Communism-aligned political parties in India.
