Introduction
On 12 February 1996 the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) or shortly
CPN-Maoist started its so-called "people’s war" (jana
yuddha) to cause the downfall of state power, it called reactionary,
and to establish a new people’s republic.
The CPN-Maoist is one of several splinter groups of the Communist Party
of Nepal (CPN) that believe in the ideals of Chinese cultural revolution
as it is represented nowadays by the Revolutionary International Movement
(RIM). The CPN-Maoist came to birth when the political wing of Nepal’s
radical left parties, the Samyukta Jana Morcha Nepal (SJMN) or United
People’s Front Nepal, split in late 1993. At that time, the SJMN had
been the third strongest force in the Pratinidhi Sabha (House of
Representatives) with 9 MPs.
The splinter groups around Pushpa Kamal Dahal, better known as Comrade
Prachanda, now called itself CPN-Maoist. Dr. Baburam Bhattarai, the former
convenor of the SJMN, emerged as some kind of speaker of this new party
trying hard for a common line of the Maoist forces. After the downfall of
the Adhikari government in September 1995 and the following harsh
government actions against the Maoist forces in western Nepal, the
CPN-Maoist found the time ripe for revolution.
When the government of Prime Minister Sher Bahadur Deuba disregarded a
list of 40 demands presented by the Maoists, the party started its violent
activities against state institutions and individuals in some districts of
mid-western Nepal, especially in Rolpa, Rukum, Jajarkot, Salyan and
Gorkha. The Maoists call it a people’s war aiming at a fundamental
change of economy and social structure to introduce a new kind of
democracy. The Nepali state, represented by the established political
parties, calls it terrorist activities which have to be opposed
forcefully.
Until the end of 2001, more than 2400 people have lost their lives, many
by Maoist attacks but a lot more by police and army actions, and more than half of
the country has been affected. The Maoist activities seem to be extended
more and more using large armies of rebels for the attacks against police
posts. The government, on the other hand, is talking about the involvement
of the army calling it the only way to re-establish law and order in the
country.
The governments have changed very often since the Maoists started their
campaign. None of these governments has, so far, been willing to take it
not simply as terrorism (what it is, in the way it is presented), but also
to see the political, social and economic background, while looking for
solutions. Sending in more and more police or even army troops is no
solution. Ministers who even today say, they did not know what the Maoists
want, are totally out of place. For her offensive, the government
primarily does not need police or army but the implementation of effective
politics that improve the lot of the poor in the rural areas. Only then,
Maoist slogans will die away.
Sher Bahadur Deuba's first steps after he again became prime minister in
late June 2001 opened up a very positive perspective for a peaceful
dialogue, but all hopes were shattered when the Maoists called off the
dialogue and restarted their violent attacks in late November 2001. Now,
the army has become involved as well, and a state of emergency has been
declared.
After the royal takeover of October 4, 2002, the Maoists
opened the way to a dialogue with the state by suggesting three steps: a
roundtable of all political forces including king/security forces,
followed by the formation of an all-party interim government and general
elections for a constituent assembly that is to draw up a new
constitution. On 29 January 2003, the government and the Maoist leaders
again declared a ceasefire. On 13 March 2003, government and Maoists
agreed on a code of conduct for
peace talks.
After three rounds of talks, the Maoists upheld only one
of their fundamental demands, that for a constitutent assembly. This was
rejected by the royal government which instead presented an agenda for
major constitutional reforms with only vague details. As a result, the
Maoists on August 27, 2003, broke off the peace dialogue and returned to
their politics of violence and destruction.
Under
great pressure from civil society, the Maoists on 22 November 2005,
signed a agreement with leaders of seven other political parties
in Delhi to go for a common crisis solution. After the
people's movement of April 2006, the CPN (Maoist) entered into peace
negotiations with the new Seven-Party-Alliance (SPA) government and
signed a comprehensive peace agreement on 21 November 2006.
On
January 15, 2007, the Maoists joined the new interim parliament that
was formed after the promulgation of the interim constitution that had
been written by representatives of the SPA and the Maoists. On April 1,
2007, they also joined the government of Prime Minister Girija Prasad
Koirala. The Maoists again wuit this government on September 18, 2007,
after weeks of quarrels over differences with the other parties in
government.
On
November 4, 2007, CPN (Maoist) and CPN (UML) together passed a
resolution in parliament to change the election system for the CA
elections to a fully proportinal one though they did not have the two
thirds majority in parliament that would be necessary to change the
constitution respectively.
In
the elections for the constituent assembly of 10 April 2008, the
Maoists have won exactly half of the 240 direct mandates and about 30%
of the 335 seats that have been elected through the proportional system
by lists. With altogether 220 seats, they have a relative majority in
the 601 member CA with more seats than Nepali Congress and CPN (UML)
together.
On 15
August 2008, the Maoist chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal has been elected
Prime Minister by the CA with a two thirds majority. He is heading a
coalition government of CPN (Maoist), CPN (UML), MPRF, Nepal Sadbhavana
Party and some minor parties.
