In a meeting with Professor S.D Muni, the Indian expert on Nepalese affairs, in the capital on Monday, he said he is not anti-Indian and that he never pin-pointed India as the “main enemy” in his political dossier he presented during the party’s extended meeting recently. “Our party does not want to identify India as a chief enemy and that reports that I have pin-pointed India as one in my political dossier is but a rumour spread by the media,” the Maoist strong man told Muni during their brief meeting. Emerging from the meeting, Muni said that the Maoist chairman complained to him that India is stopping him from getting back into power, but would still like to maintain a cordial relationship with India as always. Meanwhile, speaking at an interaction programme organised in the capital today, the Indian professor said that the intra and inter party conflict is the main cause behind the political deadlock in Nepal. Refuting widespread speculations that Nepal's political deadlock is due to India, Professor Muni held domestic parties and their cadres responsible for inviting the deadlock. Professor Muni said, "The deadlock here is due to differences among the political parties since they want to stick to their own guns. India should not be seen as a problem for Nepal." Speaking in the same programme, leader of the Bharatiya Samajbadi Party, Bijaya Pratap Sah expressed that the anti-India policy adopted by the Unified CPN (Maoist) is not good for Nepali people. He said, "They are using it only as a strategic tool to grab power." He claimed such a decision would have negative impact on the relations between the two countries.*nepalnews.com* * * -- Peace Is Doable -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Green Youth Movement" group.
