Prachanda claimed that India-US 'conspiracy' against his govt began soon after he chose to visit China.

In a sensational claim, former Prime Minister and Maoist chief Pushpa Kamal Dahal has said that the India-US axis wanted to launch anti-China activities, even a possible attack on China, using Nepali territory.

“I had to quit as Prime Minister as my party was opposed to letting our territory used against China”, Prachanda said while addressing a training programme of the Maoist cadres yesterday, according to the Rajdhani daily.

It quoted Prachanda as having said: “The US-India plan had to face challenge from our party and that triggered the conspiracy against my government.”

Prachanda resigned on May 4 in protest against President Rambaran Yadav reinstating Army Chief R Katawal, within hours of his being sacked by the Prime Minister unilaterally, on the charge of insubordination and violating the principle of civilian supremacy
