Maoist chairman claims his party will in power soon

Maoist chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal has claimed that his party will be in power very soon.

Speaking to reporters at Bhandrapur airport in Jhapa Wednesday, Dahal said the Unified CPN (Maoist) was going to come to power either through dialogue or as the result of the ongoing protest movement.

The Maoist strongman further said the talks with the parties and the protest programmes would go simultaneously until a solution to the current stalemate comes out.

Saying that the protests for 'civilian supremacy' will be fully under the control of the party, Dahal accused the government of creating propaganda that the Maoist protests were going to be violent and that maximum force might be applied to contain them.

Dahal arrived in Jhapa on his way to Ilam to attend a programme there on Thursday. He is staying at a hotel in Bhadrapur with tight security, according to reports.
