The Communist Mazdoor Kissan Party (Urdu: کمیونسٹ مزدور کسان پارٹی, lit.

The break-up of the Soviet Union had an enormous impact on the left in Pakistan, as elsewhere in the world.

At this difficult juncture in history the CPP and Major Ishaque's MKP group (one of three factions resulting from a split in the MKP in 1978) came together to engage in criticism and self-criticism and form the Communist Mazdoor Kissan Party in 1995.

In 2003, after further organizational problems and ideological disagreements, a large section of the Communist Mazdoor Kissan Party separated and reformed the Major Ishaque MKP group, whereas a group led by Sufi Abdul Khaliq Baloch and Taimur Rahman remained aligned with CMKP and its Marxist–Leninist program.

[1] The party's politics were based on Major Ishaq's philosophy, and were focused on working with the peasantry of Pakistan.
