The role of Maoist people's war in the contemporary political history of Nepal is very important and unprecedented. The people's war that started in 2052 brought a historic change in Nepal's governance system, social structure and political thinking.
This struggle was not just a rallying cry for the defeat of one party, rather it spread public awareness for people's rights and freedom, social equality and justice. This war laid the foundation of Nepal's democracy and republic, which cannot be denied under any circumstances. The real objective of the Maoist People's War was to end the inequality, exploitation and injustice prevalent in Nepal. Thousands of Nepali citizens who joined this struggle were inspired to fight for social justice and equal rights. This struggle was not carried out by peaceful means, but by force and struggle, which raised the voice of the people challenging the government and the ruling class at that time. Its impact was not limited to a political movement, rather it introduced a new perspective on the structure of society and human rights.
Now the Supreme Court has decided to declare unconstitutional the use of the word 'people's war' in government work, which is somehow an insult to the historical significance of the Maoist people's war. If we deny this word from a legal point of view, we are ignoring a great truth of history. The struggle of the People's War is not just an identification of a word, it was the result of sacrifice, sacrifice and struggle of millions of Nepalis, which changed the political perspective of the country. The court's decision may prohibit the use of the term people's war, but its historical context and impact cannot be denied. The People's War has played an important role in the development of Nepal's constitution and republic. This struggle has rewritten the definition of democracy and justice in Nepali society, so its humiliation is not tolerable. It is necessary to respect the reality of people's war and the sacrifices of millions of people who participated in it.
