Chand likely to oppose Baidhya’s document

• CPN-M POLITBURO MEET

KATHMANDU: The ongoing politburo meeting of the CPN-Maoist is discussing the political document presented by Chairman Mohan Baidhya. According to party Secretary Dev Gurung, Chairman Baidhya had presented his document yesterday and discussions started focusing on the document today. He commented that the document was enriched and could resolve the existing problems seen in the party regarding the party’s line and organisational structure.

The party is planning to hold its central committee meeting as soon as the politburo meeting concludes within next few days. With the arbitrary activities of the faction led by Secretary Netra Bikram Chand opposing the existing party line, the CPN-Maoist is currently bugged by a proxy war which is not accepted by the warriors formally. The party is yet to resolve the problem seen at more than seven districts where parallel district committee were formed and some of them still failed to form party committees.

Chand’s faction has not formally declared his differing views by registering his separate document but has created havoc at the lower committees. Gurung also said that Chand has not registered any competitive document yet and the party has started discussion on the chairman’s document seriously. Chand has been claiming that the party failed to implement its line of people’s revolt and therefore the party should take the path of long-lasting people’s war.

A pro-Chand youth leader in the party Ramdip Acharya said Chand would take a decision on whether to challenge chairman Baidhya’s document only after the listening to his descriptions regarding his views on party’s line. The party has failed to gather momentum regarding the necessary preparation for creating grounds for the people’s revolt and thus it is keen to unite with the mother party.
