Nepal government in crisis as Maoists withdraw support

Prime Minister KP Oli-led coalition government plunged into a serious crisis on Tuesday after its alliance partner Comminust Party of Nepal (Maoist-Centre) withdrew support to the nine-month-old government, accusing him of failing to implement past agreements.

CPN(M-C) chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal "Prachanda" announced the withdrawal of support from the CPN-UML-led coalition government, saying Oli's party was hesitating to implement the past agreements — the nine-point agreement signed between CPN-UML and the Maoist Centre in May and the gentlemen's agreement for the change of guard.

In a letter addressed to the prime minister, Prachanda referred to the promulgation of new constitution and the past agreements, and said his party was always in favour of forging a national consensus.

He further said the party's decision to withdraw support from the government would help build the national consensus.

"Our party saw the need for national consensus to implement the new statute, complete the remaining tasks of peace process along with the transitional justice, resolve the issues raised by Madhesis, Janajatis and Tharus, and provide relief to the people and carry out reconstruction of the country in the wake of the last year's devastating earthquake," reads the letter signed by Prachanda.

"And the spirit of nine-point agreement that the Maoist party and CPN-UML forged in May was also national consensus," he pointed out. "But as the leadership of the existing government was not ready to implement the nine-point agreement and the three-point gentlemen's agreement (including change in government leadership), it would be politically inappropriate for our party to remain in this government. Thus, we withdraw our support from this government now."

Prime Minister Oli and the Maoist chief had reached a verbal agreement in May to hand over the leadership of the government to the latter after the parliament endorses the new budget, according to sources close to Prachanda.

However, Prime Minister Oli turned his deaf ear towards the top Maoist leader and asserted that he would continue in power till the new election is held in one and a half year's time.

The Maoists have also called back all of its ministers from the Oli-led government.

Expressing dissatisfaction over the CPN-UML's leadership, the CPN(M-C) had recently intensified intra-party and inter-party dialogues to form a new government in its leadership.

Prachanda had met Nepali Congress president Sher Bahadur Deuba on Monday and held discussion on the issue of the latest political developments in the country. During his talk with Deuba, Prachanda is learnt to have sought the support from main opposition Nepali Congress to form a new government under the leadership of his party.

Is the Indian government run by lunatics? How can PM make such a big mistake of calling a soft loan as gift that too while addressing a rally. Even if it is considered that the speech was just for public consumption, and internally the governments of both countries were on-board about soft loan, why this news now coming up as India is asking money for gifted choppers? Is someone trying to boo Modi government or the time has reached that skeleton has started falling off for Modi's government?

Look up the term "Indian giver". Except not only Indians ask for it back, it's ask for maintainence.

Actually the chopper was never meant as a gift and was given on soft loan.
Modi erred during his speech by calling it a gift.

what?????
soft loan!!!!
damn, thats a mistake and that addings adding nails to the cofin on the india nepal public relationship. as i would assum the nepal government would know its a soft loan. i would have prefered if they would have donated it to them for a certain period of time for disaster relief.

Nepal should simply return the chopper and get one from China, I am sure China would offer Nepal a way better deal.

Just becoz your country is in habbit of accepting such donations from other powers, you wish the same for other countries as well ?

This has nothing to do with my country so shut your yapping about it. A very poor attempt on your part to hide this brazen move by India.
