	Nepal
		After Maoist insurgents broke a 4-month ceasefire with a series of violent attacks in November 2001, King Gyanendra, acting on the advice of the Cabinet of Ministers, declared a nationwide state of emergency which remained in effect until it expired on August 28.
		In districts where Maoists have gained effective control, the insurgents have set up "people's courts." Although these courts generally decide civil cases, in 2001 eight policemen who surrendered in Dailekh were reportedly found guilty of crimes against the people by a hastily constituted "people's court" and summarily were executed.
		Maoist commanders in certain areas also reportedly blockaded food and medical supplies and impeded the delivery of health care services by interdicting travel by health workers and by confiscating supplies.

	BBC NEWS \| World \| South Asia \| Who are Nepal's Maoist rebels?
		The Maoists say that the reason they have so much support is because most of their supporters have traditionally been treated as second-class citizens or worse.
		The first Maoist attack is believed to have taken place in 1996, when six government and police outposts were attacked simultaneously in mid-western Nepal.
		The Maoists may not yet have the strength to win their "People's War" but they are too strong to lose it.

	Asia Times -
		Maoist leaders had proclaimed as much in their public pronouncements as well as in private conversations.
		The one exception was in the western Nepal district of Rolpa, in the heart of Maoist country, when a "long-distance patrol" of a combined force of the army and the armed police was pinned down in a gully by Maoists for nearly 24 hours.
		The killings, and the implied insecurity for the Maoists, were cited as one of the reasons for the Maoist withdrawal from the talks.

	Nepal: A spiralling human rights crisis - Amnesty International (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		In December 2000 the Maoists' student wing called a week-long closure of all schools to protest against the singing of the national anthem (on the grounds that it glorifies the King) and the teaching of Sanskrit.2 They also campaigned for the closure of all private schools and instructed children to attend government-run schools.
		After the breakdown in the talks between the government and the Maoists and the deployment of the army in late November 2001, there were alarming reports that more than 2,500 people arrested on suspicion of being members or supporters of the CPN (Maoist) were being held in unacknowledged detention by the army and police.
		However, the leadership of the CPN (Maoist) said that the government was not sincere as the list of 294 contained only three of the 73 people they had listed and that the whereabouts of the other 291 prisoners had been known to their relatives anyway.

		However, it is suspected that the Maoists have received arms training from the LTTE operatives in the past and this may be continuing.

	Maoists' Tet-like Offensive in Nepal
		While the Government was prepared to remove all restrictions on the Maoists and facilitate their participation in new elections, with a guarantee that they would be allowed to form the new Government if they won the elections, it was not prepared to concede their demand for a new Constitution of the Republican model.
		The Maoists killed 24 policemen in an assault on a police outpost in Putalibazzar in Syangja district.
		The Maoists have not only been demanding the abrogation of all treaties and agreements with India which, in their view, are detrimental to Nepal's interests, but also projecting the Indian Army as their next enemy after they defeat the Nepalese Army.

		The Maoists’ unilateral cease-fire declaration followed a decision by the Council of Ministers to lift the ban on the Maoists and to revoke the bounties the previous government had put on top Maoist leaders’ heads.
		Prachanda has said the Maoists are still adamant on certain “minimum” demands, including the formation of an interim government, and the possibility for the Maoists to run for election in a constituent assembly that would draft a new constitution.
		Even as disenchantment with the government grows in the cities, support for the Maoist rebels is ebbing in their traditional rural power-base, says Top Bahadur Khadka, who runs a human-rights organization in Rukum, a western district that has borne the brunt of some of the worst fighting.

	The King and the Maoists (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		They project their armed struggle as a three-phased one---initially against the Police, which they claim to have already won; in the second stage, against the Royal Nepal Army, which is currently going on and which, they admit, is nowhere near victory; and, in the third and final phase, against the Indian Army.
		But, the Maoists have strong bases of ideological support in the tribal belt of India right across the land due to the years of economic and social injustice and sheer servitude to which the tribals have been subjected by feudal landlords and the so-called upper caste Hindus.
		Instead of coming together in order to resist the advances of the Maoists on the one side and the steady encroachment of the King on democracy on the other, they kept indulging in what the French call “la politique politicienne”, the politics of politicians and not of statesmen.

		Arrayed against the Maoists are Nepal’s political parties, the intelligentsia, kingship, the police, the media – and the army at the latest instance – all of whom have watched this national disintegration with singular selfishness.
		The Maoist attempt to drive a wedge between the new king and the masses did not prove effectual, and the massacres of policemen as the representatives of the state continued.
		In addition, the Maoists are innovative, building their own arsenals as well as developing indigenous weaponry in the form of ‘pipe bombs’ as landmines, ‘socket bombs’ as grenades, ‘pressure-cooker bombs’ for death-dealing force, as well as low-pressure ‘banner bombs’ and Molotov cocktails for psychological impact.

	The Maoists of Nepal:Three perspectives
		The Maoists of Nepal see their armed struggle, based on Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, from three perspectives---the international, the Nepalese and the Indian.
		To quote Prachanda, the General Secretary of the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist): "Objectively, there is a dialectical relationship between the People's War in Nepal and the whole international situation and movement.
		At the same time, the Maoists realised that if they focussed only on building their bases in West Nepal and did not start operating in other parts of Nepal simultaneously, the security forces would easily be able to encircle and crush them.

		That the Nepalese Maoists have frequently been crossing over to Bihar and Jharkhand to collaborate with their ideological counterparts in India is not a recent development.

		The Maoist conflict was "an armed insurrection involving thousands of a country's own citizens in a classic guerrilla warfare environment with political and socio-economic demands, many of which are shared by the mainstream political parties." Mind-numbingly stupid.
		The Maoists have killed more than 800 civilians 450 soldiers, 350 policemen and 130 personnel from the armed police force over the past 18 months and yet it is hard for the British to see the Maoists as terrorists.
		Maoists have had many good chances at the negotiating table and have either walked away abruptly or sabotaged talks by refusing to negotiate.

	Maoist Revolutionary parties and organizations in India
		The Maoist movement has been solidly entrenched among peasants and the rural poor since the Naxalbari uprising of 1967, but the report argues that the threat to India's central government is unprecedented.
		The immediate aim and programme of the Maoist party is to carry on and complete the already ongoing and advancing New Democratic Revolution in India as a part of the world proletarian revolution by overthrowing the semi-colonial, semi-feudal system under the neo-colonial form of indirect rule, exploitation and control.
		As such, its Maoist credentials are weak, but it has been exploring a possible merger with the centrist (or middle-right) Maoist groups who will be forming the new CPI(ML) in January 2005.
