Prachanda Claims Foreign Forces Plotting to Destroy Communist Movement in Nepal

Kathmandu. Nepali Communist Party (NCP) Cordinator and former Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ has stated that foreign and domestic reactionaries are engaged in a major design to destroy the communist movement from Nepal. Speaking at a program organized in Kathmandu on Sunday on the occasion of the 26th Nirmal Lama Smriti Diwas, he mentioned that not taking this fact and moving forward would be a great betrayal to the working people.

Coordinator Dahal claimed that communist parties in Nepal must first introspect and correct their weaknesses, and there is no alternative to uniting the entire communist movement and moving forward in a new way. ‘Foreign and domestic reactionaries are working under a very big design to destroy the communist movement from Nepal,’ he said, emphasizing that the leadership must respect the people’s desire for unity. He also urged Mohan Bikram Singh, General Secretary of NCP (Masal), to play a parental role in uniting the communist movement.

He asserted that the nation’s independence has reached its most difficult stage in history. He analyzed that national independence has been endangered, especially by the Jenji movement and the events after Bhadra 23-24. Mentioning that the seeds of positive unity are hidden within these negative events, he said that voices calling for all patriots and communists to unite have arisen across the country.

Former Prime Minister Dahal also accused the current government of causing the most suffering to the poor and destitute citizens. He stated that since the working class is being attacked by the government, communists must stand firmly in support of their class. ‘Currently, the government is trying to inflict the most harm and suffering on the poorest and most destitute people,’ he said, adding that communist unity is essential to advance the class struggle. He mentioned that the Nepali people still have faith in the communist parties, and the leadership must take steps accordingly.
