Nepal: Chief Dahal new choice for PM, NC undesirable, says Pokhrel

Telegraph Nepal

The Unified Maoists Party standing committee member Giriraj Mani Pokharel reveals talking to Nagarik National daily October 4, 2012, that party leadership has freshly come to conclusion that party vice chairman Baburam will tender his resignation as the country’s prime minister only if opposition parties accept formation of a national unity government under the leadership of party Chairman Pushpa Kamal ‘Prachanda’. Great Rider!

Back square to one.

He reveals further, “Chairman Pushpa Kamal and Vice Chairman Baburam have reached an agreement in this regard.”

“We had all unanimously accepted Girija Prasad Koirala’s leadership in the past as one of the signatories of the broader peace agreement. Chairman Pushpa Kamal as another signatory of the agreement is the appropriate candidate to lead the national unity government.”

Very good but biased analysis.

“Yet, we still prefer Prime Minister Baburam to continue to lead the national unity government. It should be Chairman Dahal to lead the national unity government if Bhattarai is not acceptable. Else, we are also open to an independent candidate to lead the government”.

  • Logically speaking only other surving signatory of the peace treaty is Prachanda and in all fairness of the thing he should now lead the govt and finish the process started by GP Koirala and Pushpa Kamal Dahal 'Prachanda'.Other "Khilaris" should pipe-down and cooperate with the leader who matters.

  • When 12 point agreement was signed till now NC and UML could not know who is Dahal. This is the reason the both party leaders are licking dust now. Till opportunists and power monger Madhesis were ministers in MKN cabinet they were Indian stooges for Dahal and company, now when they are in BRB cabinet they are pure nationalists and progressive forces. How come Mahantha and Gachhedar can work together a party like Maoists? Do they have common goal? Never, Power and money is their goal.
