The '''Central Reorganisation Committee, Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist)''' was a communist group in [[India]] 1979–1991. The Secretary of the All-India Leading Committee of the CRC, CPI(ML) was [[K. Venu (Kerala)|K. Venu]]. The main organ of CRC, CPI(ML) was called ''Mass Line''. CRC, CPI(ML) also published ''Liberation'' and ''Comrade''.

CRC, CPI(ML) emerged from the pro-[[Charu Majumdar]] tendency of the [[Naxalite]] movement. It had its main roots in the Kerala State Committee of the [[Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist)]] (CPI(ML)). But the KSC differed from the original CPI(ML) by advocating a [[mass line]].

In 1982 the First All India Conference of CRC, CPI(ML) was held. The second conference was held in 1987.

In 1984 CRC, CPI(ML) was one of the three founders of the [[Revolutionary Internationalist Movement]] (the others being [[Revolutionary Communist Party (USA)]] and [[Partido Comunista Revolucionario (Chile)]]).

In 1987 CRC, CPI(ML) suffered a heavy setback when a major portion of the organisation broke away and formed [[CPI (ML) Red Flag]].

In October 1991 CRC, CPI(ML) was dissolved. K. Venu renounced Maoism and declared an All India communist party as an impossibility. Groups dissatisfied with the dissolution formed the Maharashtra Communist Party and Kerala Communist Party. MCP and KCP later merged to form the [[Maoist Unity Centre, Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist)]]. MUC, CPI(ML) later merged with [[Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) Naxalbari|CPI(ML) Naxalbari]].

K. Venu later joined the [[Janathipathiya Samrakshana Samithy]]. He contested the 1996 Kerala assembly elections from Kondugallur. Venu came second with 37,234 votes.
