Congress Party for the Independence of Madagascar

Party of the Independence Congress of Madagascar (in French: Parti du Congrès de l'indépendence de Madagascar, in Malagasy: Antokon'ny Kongresin'ny Fahaleovantenan'i Madagasikara) is a communist political party in Madagascar.

One of the organizations that took part in the formation was the UPM of Francis Sautron.

The founding president was Richard Andriamanjato, a Merina Protestant priest who had developed links to the French Communist Party.

On the same day the list of AKFM and FISEMA won the municipal elections in Diégo-Suarez (now Antsiranana), where Sautron had been the mayor.

In March 1989, Andriamanjato broke away and formed the pro-Albert Zafy Party of the Independence Congress of Madagascar-Renewal.
