The internal working style of the communist parties of Nepal, which embraces the principle of parliamentary democracy, has been liberal. The tendency of not allowing all questions to be raised about the leadership, and trying to put the question aside when someone raises it, is no longer new in almost all Nepali Communist Party.

The third party in Parliament and the second largest party in the Communist Party, the Maoist Center, has been in the interest and discussion for some time now. Deputy General Secretary Janardhan Sharma, who has been criticizing the working style of the leadership within the party and demanding the transfer of leadership, is facing the opposite question. In the ongoing standing committee meeting, most of them are telling him that he should be self-criticized for going outside the rules of the party and criticizing the leadership.

UML president KP Sharma Oli, who came into parliamentary politics a decade and a half before Maoists, had warned that action would be taken against former president and party vice president Bidya Bhandari in the central committee meeting held in the first week of July. Standing committee member Vinda Pandey and central member Ushakiran Timsina were suspended last year after criticizing the decision to build the party headquarters on the donation of a controversial businessman. Former Vice President Bhim Rawal, who competed with Oli for the presidency in the convention and was constantly criticizing the leadership, was punished by UML by not even being an organized member.

Chairman Madhav Nepal has responded to Jhalnath Khanal, the respected leader of the United Socialist Party, who is of the opinion that the justification for dividing the UMA has not been confirmed. President Nepal said in Biratnagar on Friday, "He has said that there is no justification for splitting the party". I suggest to take leave from the party on the basis of morality.' In other communist parties, questions and criticism of the leadership are also prohibited. Analysts say that due to the undemocratic tendency of the leadership to hold confident opinions and not allow discussion even internally, communist parties are often divided.

Maoist Secretary Ram Karki says that the two-line struggle in the Communist Party is unpleasant but inevitable. 'This is medicine . Even if it is bitter, it must be taken to heal the disease,'' he says, 'if there is no two-line struggle, the life of the party will end.'

This is not the first time that leadership in Maoist has been questioned. But those who raised the question earlier, they mostly separated from the party over time. Pushpa Kamal Dahal and Baburam Bhattarai, who led the armed conflict for ten years, are in different parties today. During the armed conflict, the then senior leader Bhattarai was removed from the position after raising questions about the working style of Chairman Dahal in Lawang of Rukum in January 2061 . Not only that, he was surrounded by fighters. Bhattarai was reinstated only in July 2062. Bhattarai, who was sometimes secretly and sometimes fiercely in conflict with Dahal, left the Maoist after the promulgation of the constitution in 2072.

The Mohan Vaidya Party left the Maoists and formed a separate party in June 2069 expressing disagreement over the peace process and the constitution-making party line from the Constituent Assembly. Former fellow travelers Netra Vikram Chand, CP Gajurel, Ram Bahadur Thapa and other leaders are now not in the Dahal-led Maoists . The history of Maoist says that other leaders who questioned Dahal, who has been leading the party for 36 years, left the party one after the other.

After the departure of leaders like Bhattarai and Vaidya, while the internal conflict in the Maoists has mostly come to a standstill, Deputy Secretary General Sharma has been fighting two lines within the party for the past two years. But he is also being troubled. In the standing committee meeting, most of the leaders said that it was wrong to question Chairman Dahal. At the beginning of the meeting on Friday, President Dahal challenged Sharma to proceed to the convention if the leadership is to be changed.

Deputy Secretary General Sharma has argued that if the party deteriorates, the President should take charge of it. "I am not only self-critical for the country and people, I am also ready to sacrifice anything." "He should take charge of the problems caused by President Prachanda," he said in the meeting. In 2064, Maoist got 31 lakh votes, now it has reached 11 lakh, Sharma said that it is the responsibility of the main leadership. "If the reason and responsibility for the 3.1 lakh votes to reach 1.1 lakh is mine, I will take responsibility, I will also criticize myself," he said in the meeting. He also mentioned that a special convention is necessary for discussion of ideas, clarity of political line, permanent structure with methods, methods, competition within the party and people's responsibility. The two-line struggle in UML has stalled. The polarization started after former President Vidya Bhandari announced her return to party politics last month. Former President Bhandari wanted to return to politics with the aspiration of becoming the president of UML. But KP Sharma Oli, who aspires to become president for one more term, made the decision to stop Bhandari from entering politics from the Central Committee meeting.

UML's decision not to allow Bhandari to return to the party

Despite President Oli's warning not to speak in Bhandari's favor, around a dozen leaders took the risk and came out in Bhandari's favor . Before Oli's warning came, many other central members were prepared to express their opinions. UML has also instructed the floor committee not to debate on stewardship issues. Senior vice-president Ishwar Pokharel, vice-presidents Yuvraj Gyawali and Surendra Pandey, standing committee member Karn Thapa, who are in favor of Bhandari, said an official under the supervision of President Oli.

UMA vice-president Ashtalakshmi Shakya says that it is wrong for the former president to enter party politics, but the party leadership should not be indifferent to different views. He said that different opinions should be listened to in order to improve the method, system and program for strengthening the party. "You should keep your opinion within the party". Don't be afraid to speak your mind . Inter-party struggle should be carried out,' she says, 'If you don't manage to keep things within the party, it will scatter outside . Leadership should create a comfortable environment to present different ideas . The more political and ideological issues are discussed, the stronger the party becomes.'

Central member Ram Kumari Jhankri had to give an explanation while demanding a special convention while raising the question of morality after a corruption case was filed against the president of the Unified Samajwadi Party, Madhav Kumar Nepal, in the land embezzlement case of Patanjali Yogpeeth. After he gave an explanation to the party, the action has been stopped . But the inter-conflict has not been reconciled. Respected leader Jhalnath Khanal has been continuously raising questions about the leadership.

Regarding the response of President Nepal that it would be appropriate to leave the party, Khanal says that it is unthinkable to leave the Samajwadi Party. "I said that the party should run according to the method and method". So far, the lack of confirmation of the justification for rebellion from UML is the result of the incompetence of the leadership,' he said, 'The Communist Party must run on methods, policies and principles. You can't do whatever you want.' Earlier, he had said that after the case was filed in the Patanjali land case in Kavre, President Nepal should hand over the responsibility on the basis of ethics.

After Madhav joined the party in Nepal's corruption case, the dispute flared up in the Unified Socialist

The Unified Socialist is ready to discuss this in the meeting saying that Khanal has raised questions about the party leadership. Vice President Beduram Bhusal said that the reaction expressed by Khanal regarding the division of the party was serious. He (Jhalnath) has been talking about discouraging leaders and activists in various conferences. Now they have started to say that there is no justification for the party. This is a serious matter," he said. "This matter will be discussed in the party committee. He said, "We should have taken it to the convention that the justification for forming the party was not confirmed."

The same problem in smaller communist parties

"Issuing a statement of alleged expulsion and suspension by making false accusations against some responsible comrades is a product of divisive mentality," Rasaili said in a statement. He has accused the General Secretary Bastola of having extreme footist, divisive and prohibitionist tendencies.

CPN Majority Leader Gunraj Lohani said that efforts are being made to resolve within the party. It's not an ideological dispute, it's a technical matter. Efforts are being made to solve it, he said.

Professor of Political Science Krishna Pokharel says that the main leadership of the Communist Party should respect different opinions. "Firstly, the leadership in the Communist Party has two legs. On the one hand, they are advocates of democracy. On the other hand, there is the communist hangover from yesterday," he said, "According to the belief of the Communist Party, if the leaders come up with a different opinion, it will not be prohibited. The majority opinion should be applied and the alternative opinion should be kept as an asset. If the first idea doesn't work, the second idea should be embraced.'

He says that if the main leadership is challenged, it is a wrong practice to 'target' the person.

'The original leadership should make it easy to hold different opinions'

- Ashtalakshmi Shakya

, Vice President, UML

Why is the communist leadership afraid of questions and criticism?

Why was former president Vidya Bhandari prevented from entering politics in UML?

Vidya Bhandari did not advise the party. Previously, he did politics together with the president. It didn't go well as his membership was thrown into controversy all at once . A respectable person should not have come into active politics . Do you consider dissent to be taboo lately? A different opinion should be kept in the

party . Must be able to keep . Leaders are not afraid to voice their opinions. If you don't keep your point within the party, you will be scattered outside . Original leadership should make it easy to hold different opinions. The more political and ideological discussions are held in the party, the better. Different votes are also needed to strengthen the party.

But recently, did you have a different opinion or are you afraid of being prosecuted?

The political leadership of the communist parties of Nepal was not ideological. Methodology, system not established . The factional tendency is more . Leadership hybrid thinking should be removed . Only then will the party system become strong . The party is a huge organization . Everyone should have an atmosphere of self-respect. There are many challenges facing the party now. There is a lot of work to be done. A party can't be big by being liberal. Democracy has no meaning if you cannot speak within the party. We still have a lot to think about. Democratic culture should be developed in the party. It makes the party stronger.

'Party life ends if there is no two-line struggle'

- Ram Karki

, Secretary, Maoist

Why is the communist leadership afraid of questions and criticism?

Lately two-line struggle has been banned ?

Two-line struggle is unpleasant. You have to fight with your own comrades . You have to prove your friends wrong. But this is medicine . Even if it is bitter, you have to take advantage . If the two lines struggle, the party life will end . If there is no conflict, it is like a private company. Oli is heard saying, "Don't imagine UML without Mabina". Man is mortal. Will Pati also die together? Party leadership where the leader remains special is not inevitable . If there is a talented leader, it does not mean that another one should come . If there is no same leadership, you can go to collective leadership .

Why does the Maoist seem indifferent to the criticism of the leadership ? A theoretical, ideological critique of

leadership helps to be reformed. 

A

The

ghost Praise does not help . Any change should be given sociological validity . We had to rewrite history. The role played by Congress, Malay, UML and Maoists should have become a matter of history. The curriculum of the educational institution should have been changed . Appreciation from Facebook establishes a leader ? President Prachanda has a long history in Nepal. We failed to establish that. Medicine should have been given. We didn't give that. A leader is not established by singling praises personally. Every man must deal with his system . The direction of the party, the program objective should also be the same . Discipline is maintained if the intention is good. If it is counted outside, don't cover it. How will the contradictions of the Maoists be resolved? The contradiction can be transformed . There is a bit of personal content in the current controversy. An open debate should be started by fixing the date of the convention. The current small conflict should be taken to a higher level. Who will punish whom? Criticism or superstitious praise ? We have to go through the convention through method and method. Is the liberal leadership becoming dominant in the communists?

Looking at the upcoming policy socialism, we should not forget the party, looking at the party, we should not forget socialism . The old system is dying but the new one is not born. That situation becomes stressful . At this time, big and small idols appear . A party opened only by the family has idolatry . The contradictions of the society have been expressed in the party . We don't just talk about Maoists, we talk about the society . A comrade cannot be resolved by talking about personal action. It is not a question of individuals. Method and system are the key .

Maoist transfer of leadership is not possible ?

President Prachanda should be restored to health. The youth should be given leadership by sitting in a respectable place. If you look at it as a dialectician, the conflict will be resolved . Not that we are all spoiled . If everything was damaged, everything would be finished . Janardhan or any other person is not the problem . The problem is the society, the work direction and the program . It is not fair to abuse the president too much . Too much praise is also not good . Must be critically supported .

'Jhalnathji has followed which method ?'

- Beduram Bhusal

, Vice President, respected leader of the United Socialist Party

Why is the communist leadership afraid of questions and criticism?

Jhalnath Khanal has said that UML did not justify its split.

How justified is it for him to say that it was a mistake to make this party? What he did was done according to what method? Is it moral to say that it was wrong to make a party without standing in the party committee? If so, what would be confirmed? Will it be justified only by being a big party and ? The political document was unanimously passed in the convention. He kept silent at that time . At that time, Madhav said that Nepal should be led. Jhalnathji should have gathered people to support him and take the leadership. It becomes a serious matter if you walk away saying that there is no reason to make a party. President Jhalnath Khanal is dissatisfied because of the liberal style of Nepal ?

is what we opened at the conference for leadership. I should be able to say that I will take the lead at that time. From the beginning there are ups and downs in him . He has talked about discouraging leaders and workers in various conferences.
