The earlier signs of this organization started in the early 1960s, when Bijan Jazani lead the first left-wing armed movement.
During the revolution, Iran established a wide arrange of public offices scattered through most Iranian cities.
Some surmise that this was due to a lack of necessary political experience, an unclear view of how the people could be organized, and no comprehensive agenda.
The organization announced that it will no longer be a guerrilla, but a political party in support of the Iranian working class.
[3] by the end of these years the party had around twenty thousand followers, with most of them being women, students, working-class workers and artists.
The OIPFG minority rebellious nature made them an early target for the Iranian technocratic establishment.
Hundreds of supporters were murdered during the beginnings of the repression of the minority party, pushing them to the Kurdish rebel region in 1982.
Even though OPFIM took a supportive stance towards Iran's war with Iraq, and they adapt to the anti-American politics and even collaborated with the Islamic state to fight to take down the Kurdish rebellions.
[3] During the years of oppression, the OPFIM majority had already made several efforts to merge with the Tudeh Party of Iran, however; this had never been successful.
The merge was eventually accepted by a sub-party that split from the OPFIM, the OIPF led by Ali-Mohammed Farkonda.
The congress focussed on a re-examination of earlier created policies, the political situation in Iran and its internal relations.
[2] The lack of experience of internal dialogues and democratic standards had meant a big part of the organization had split up in different groups.
The political situation is assessed and the several congresses that form the organization come to agreements about the suggested rules and bills.
In the following years this current, having learned its lesson from the previous failures, criticized its past policies and gradually returned to the revolutionary left movement.
The left current present in the reunified Union of People's Fedaian of Iran, was initially aligned with the Minority.
The progress toward reunification of Fedaies was made possible through the revision of the theoretical principles, proposing clear political lines, dispensing with sectarian attitudes toward unity and coalition, learning from the past failures, and achieving principled understanding about democratic relations among the left forces as well as within the organization ranks.
