| The
Maoists, who were preparing to increase the size of their armed force before
the 12-point agreement with the parties, have decided to dissolve their
regional
peoples' governments. This will be announced end of December 2005.
The central committee meeting
held two months ago in Rolpa dissolved the United Revolutionary Peoples
Council under Baburam Bhattari and formed a General Convention Organising
Committee.
Dr
Baburam Bhattarai is also the coordinator of the "Greater National Political
Conference Preparation Committee, Joint Revolutionary People's Council,
Nepal".
Politburo
members who were made working coordinators during Baburam's estrangement
have been appointed secretaries, while the regional and communal
government chief's were appointed members of the committee. The same
organising committee is said to be disbanding the Peoples Liberation
Army, five communal governments of the Magarant, Tamang, Madhesh, Tamuwan
and Kirant as well as the peoples governments of Bheri-Karnali,
and Seti-Mahakali.
Changes
have already been made in the central leadership of the Maoist affiliated
student
union and preparations are also being made to reorganise teachers,
trade unions and women's organisations.
According
to sources former commanders of the dissolved eastern, western and mid-division
commands Netrabikram Chand (Anant), Nanda Kishore Pun (Pasang) and Janardan
Sharma (Prabhakar) have been given equal status posts in an army
academy. |
