Press Release
Hail the formation of the new Maoist party in
Nepal!
The
formation of a new Maoist party by the revolutionary faction that broke away
from the United Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) is a matter of great joy for
the international communist movement and the peoples of the world. In its
message to the new party the Central Organising Committee of the CPI(M-L)NAXALBARI has saluted its formation and
stated that “This historic step accords to the revolutionary aspirations
of the people of Nepal. It is enthusing to all, throughout the world, who have
watched with grave concern the Prachanda/Bhattrai attempts to liquidate the
Nepalese revolution and enforce capitulationism.” After noting the National Convention’s evaluation that ”The
creation of People's Liberation Army, establishment of base areas and people's
government, role played by workers, peasants, women, indigenous nationalities
and Dalits; and the awareness developed in this whole process are some of the
major achievements we have gained..” and its decision to “move forward by
standing upon this base.”, the message goes
on to say, “This is decisive in turning away from the disastrous path followed
by Prachanda and Bhattrai. We wish you all success in this crucial task. No
doubt, this depends on deepening the summation of the deviation while firmly
and fully separating from the strategy and tactics it has used to derail the
revolution.”
The formation of a new Maoist party has created
serious problems for Indian expansionism and imperialism. On the one hand it
tries to downplay it as ‘an insignificant splinter’. On the other it steps up
its overt and covert intervention in Nepal, including veiled threats held out
by increasing its armed deployment along the border. The response of the oppressed
masses is exactly the opposite. They are gladdened by the bold step taken by
the Maoists in Nepal and keenly look forward to their reopening the
revolutionary road.
