Along with her elder brother, Comrade Byomkesh Banerjee, she had drawn other members of their family into the Naxalbari movement as well. During the 1970s, she dedicated herself to building organisation among agricultural labourers in Hooghly district. During this period, she was arrested and spent nearly two and a half years in prison.

After her release, she actively participated in movements for the release of political prisoners and in protests against every instance of state repression. She was associated with various democratic organisations, including APDR and the Anti-Communal Platform.

At the time of aggressive anti-Pakistan nationalist propaganda, she played an important role in building the "Pakistan India Peoples’ Forum for Peace and Democracy” in 1996 and also attended its conference in Lahore in 1998.

During the Gujarat riots, she travelled to Gujarat and visited relief camps for riot victims. On her return, she edited the book Gujarat Chhariye (Beyond Gujarat). She also regularly took part in many of our party's important programmes and initiatives.

She was uncompromising on the question of women’s liberation and the dignity and respect of women within society and the family. For many years, she was associated with the editing of the women’s journal 'Khonj Ekhon'. She also edited two important books: 'Women in the Naxalbari Movement' and 'Charu Mazumdar and Naxalbari'.

Even two days before her death, she appealed on social media for the unity of Left against the BJP.

The life, struggles, humanity, and uncompromising political commitment of Comrade Krishna Bandyopadhyay will continue to inspire our struggles.

Heartfelt tribute and Red Salute to Comrade Krishna Bandyopadhyay!
