years after severing ties with the Unified CPN-Maoist citing ideological degradation in the party, majority leaders of the Mohan Baidhya-led CPN-Revolutionary Maoist formally split to return home. Holding a separate central committee meeting, party General Secretary Ram Bahadur Thapa formed a new party and decided to begin the unification process with like-minded parties including the UCPN-Maoist. After the Baidhya-led faction, including CP Gajurel and the Pari Thapa-led group that joined the party later, refused to accept the 11-point bases prepared by Baidhya himself and postponed the central committee meeting called for today, Ram Bahadur Thapa had to hold the central committee meeting and decide by majority vote of the central committee, said leader Lekhnath Neupane.
A Central Committee meeting of the UCPN-M held today at its headquarters Paris Danda also endorsed the 13-point bases for party unification. Today’s meeting entrusted Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal to unite the parties within two weeks.
