Why do the US and India want to see the YCL dissolved?
Why do the US and India want to see the YCL dissolved? It is clear enough; without the YCL it will be easy to carry out a military coup, but with the YCL it is impossible, as the YCL control the streets and the masses are with them. By not joining a Maoist led government and by continuously creating obstacles for the Maoists, the Nepali Congress and the CPN UML are speeding towards their own destruction, as they will be completely swept away by Janandolan.

Prachanda warns of counter revolution
Maoist chairman Prachanda today said there is a possibility of counter-revolution in the country because of growing differences among the parties.
"I'm saying this sincerely.there is a possibility of counter-revolution in the country," Prachanda said during a picnic programme organised by Human Rights Concern Centre at Matatirtha, Kathmandu.
Alluding to the recent reactions of Nepali Congress and CPN-UML leaders to the Maoist victory in the polls, Prachanda said the reluctance of "some parties" in accepting the people's mandate has given rise to the possibility of counter-revolution in the country.
"Those who had not anticipated this kind of election result are finding it difficult to accept the mandate of the people," the Maoist chairman said, adding that huge masses should take to the streets across the country from May 27 to 29 as the first sitting of the Constituent Assembly on May 28 is set to abolish monarchy and declare the country a republic. He said reactionaries could try to stage a counter-revolution during this period.

Prachanda cautions against giving political colour to Koteshwore incident
Maoist chairman Prachanda has issued a statement cautioning all concerned against giving 'political colour' and permitting 'fishing in troubled waters' regarding the incident of killing of a local trader of Koteshwore.
Prachanda has expressed deepest condolences to the family of Ramhari Shrestha, who was killed by some Maoist cadres a few days ago.
Shrestha, who was a Maoist sympathizer, was reportedly killed by some Maoist cadres after abducting him under accusations that he stole their money.
In the statement, Prachanda has said his party had initiated investigation over the killing. Rejecting any institutional hand of Maoist party or People's Liberation Army (PLA) in the incident, Prachanda said his party was willing to cooperate with police investigation to take action against the culprits. "We are shocked by his killing by conspiracy of some selfish elements that had infiltrated our party," he states in the statement.
Meanwhile, relatives of Shrestha and local resident of Koteshwore have continued agitation protesting the killing. They have started agitation since Friday and on Sunday, too, they have blocked traffic movement in and around Koteshwore. They are also preparing to submit a memo to Prime Minister demanding action against the killers

Prachanda alleges NC of encouraging regressive forces
Kathmandu, May 17 - CPN-Maoist Chairman Prachanda Saturday said that the threat of regressive forces still exist and allege the Nepali Congress (NC) of encouraging such forces.
Prachanda said that the NC has failed to give up the reins of the government instead of accepting its defeat in the Constituent Assembly elections and added that such activities have benefited the palace’s entities.
Speaking at a programme in the capital today, the Maoist Chairman pointed out the presence of an act in the interim parliament through which the Prime Minister can submit his resignation to the Speaker of the interim parliament and claimed that PM Koirala has acted against the people’s mandate by not tendering his resignation.
Prachanda also strongly criticised the terms recently put forward by the NC for co-ordination between the two parties during the formation of the next government.
Speaking at the programme organised by National Human Rights Concern Centre, Maoist leader and Minister for Physical Planning Hisila Yami claimed that human rights were respected and implemented more in Nepal than even in the US.
