Initially NSSP was associated with the Committee for a Workers International but, in the opinion of the CWI, never fully agreed with the analysis that it had made of Stalinism, of developments in the former colonial and semi-colonial world and the national question.[1] It departed CWI in 1988, in a process described by some as expulsion, but by the CWI as a split. The remaining CWI members formed the United Socialist Party. Since 1991 nava sam samaj party led by DR Vickramabahu has been the Sri Lankan section of the United Secretariat of the Fourth International.
