The expulsion of Pasla came a day after he had announced the holding of a parallel state conference of the CPI(M) in Punjab. Tensions between Pasla's group and followers of the CPI(M) general secretary Harkishan Singh Surjeet had simmered in the Punjab unit of CPI(M) for some time. Pasla's group had accused the party of abandoning the 1964 party programme. On elections, Pasla argued in favour of maintaining the policy of equidistance to parties like the Indian National Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party.

After the expulsion from CPI(M), Pasla's group continued to work under the name " Communist Party Marxist (Punjab)". Pasla is the secretary of the committee. He is also the president of the Centre of Trade Unions (CTU), Punjab.
